I do not get why people are complaining about this ova series. I am thoroughly enjoying it though it took a long time to come to conclusion.

People aren't complaining about this series. There's really only one.

Now that this is properly released, can anyone tell me what the picture drama that came with this is about?

I think Shin recognized Julius as Zero, but Suzaku is denying it, thus Suzaku and Shin are fighting.

Seems so... Euro Britanna (UK) is a "colony" of the the Holy Britannia Empire(in our world USA) ruled by Charles (Lelouch father), and they are at war with the European Union (France and rest of europe excluding UK).

Now Shin/Shaing? is "declaring" independence of Euro Britanna from the Holy Britannia Empire and is going at war with them and the European Union. We have to see what Shaing is planning in the next episodes. IF he wants to become King of Euro Britannia or whatever...

Oh my God, the Geass Witches are Time Lords.

They even choose a temporary traveling companion, then move on to a new one once the old ones fall away.

All jest aside, it looks like Shin and Suzaku are now in cahoots of some sort. Because obviously Shin didn't kill Lelouch, and Suzaku didn't kill/ arrest Shin.

Euro-Britannia as far as we know is mainly in control of Russia, Belarus, the Baltic States, and Turkey. The British Isles are part of the European Union.

It also seems to function more like a puppet-state more than a colony. We see that Euro-Britannia is self-governing since it has its own House of Lords and command structure. Nevertheless, Britannia can basically overrule any of their decisions as indicated by Julius Kingsley's actions.

I finally got around to seeing this! Wow that first half was boring and dumb, at least the second half sort of made up for it with conspiracies and that nice knightmare fight (is it just me or does Lancelot look better in CGI?). That jazz music still isn't fitting.

Seriously, how big are these palaces that knightmares can fight in them?

I think the Knightmare Frames in general look much better with 3D CG. And whoever's in charge of directing the fights and battles is doing a fantastic job as well.

I'm not surprised if they are going into Multiverse with this madness with what has been somewhat been imply in this ep. I wonder if Shin comes from some other timeline since it is imply he is some kind of abnormality that shouldn't be there. Which raises questions on what is his goal and true ties with Akito.

If what granny said is true, the Leila's the one that will save Akito from Shin's curse. *ship radar opens*

And Euro Britannia wants to pull a United States. In Russia. Irony indeed.

Well, aside from the predictable revelation, this episode is pretty good.

If I recall correctly -years and years ago- there was talk about an OVA movie in planning that would be a remake of R2. This was due to the fact that R2 was rushed/ derailed mid season, and the quality of animation had degraded. It was said that it would not ultimately alter any of the eventualities of the series, but it would more gracefully address the plot line.

Personally? I'd welcome a remake of R2, so long as it did not alter any of the major outcomes. And no, that does not mean they would immortalize Lelouch.

Because I'd travel to Japan and personally destroy the animation files if they did.
Negating Zero Requiem (a la the alt. end of Super Robot Wars Saisei Hen) would be welcome.

That he was used here as Julius Kingsley by his father makes his betrayal in R2 just plain disproportionate retribution.

Agreed.
I just finished ep 3, and while the anime is a wee bit better, the whole Julius Kingsley thing isn't helping.
I am waiting to see what they do with him and where this goes.
No doubt at least one portion of the Code Geass fanbase will be up in arms about it.

SRW games are expected to make changes, especially when it comes to letting you play with the same characters through multiple entries and avoid canon deaths. That's business as usual there. I wouldn't be against remaking R2, for different reasons, although it's rather unlikely to happen.

Aside from the Emperor and Suzaku, nobody outside of Europe even knows about Julius Kingsley, much less that he was Lelouch.

Suzaku's contradictions are already well known, but he probably still thinks this suffering is nothing compared to Euphemia's fate.

Considering Julius Kingsley essentially broke down and lost his position of authority...events are already moving beyond him.

For that matter, the spoilers found in the topic for Part 4 also confirm that fears of him taking over the story were largely exaggerated.

If anything, I expect that more people will be "up in arms" about his importance diminishing so quickly. Not me, mind you. I prefer it this way.

Does anybody know the name of the music that plays from 54:38-55:59? I can't seem to find it on the OST.

I found the slow, easygoing parts of this OVA enjoyable. It was interesting to learn that none of the Japanese characters are actually from Japan and I'm glad that Ayako gave Akito her kodachi. Can't wait to see him use it and Ayako is becoming my favorite girl.

so the end is in sight now? two more eps? one supposedly on july 4th and one in autumn? how many years are these two going to be delayed..

and yeah, i'm greatly enjoying this. it was great to see old characters, and the ED had a typical geass sound to it. have they used it previously?

also, spinzaku again.
