Just stop. Name it something else.

>no lelouch
Akito had Lelouch, and it was mediocre at best.
Resurrection had Lelouch as main character and it was decent but forgettable.
The recap movies were utter garbage.
As for Rozè, no amount of Lelouch could have saved such an abomination of a story.
Face it, Lelouch's presence is now just a lame excuse for the authors to virtue-signal that "it's still Code Geass, trust me bro!".
Completely dropping Lelouch is a great sign because it means they're trying to create something that might be able to stand on its own legs, and I say this as a hardcore Leloucheaboo.

>3d magical mechs
What about them is supposed to be magical?

>during roman period
And? Some official mangas were set in fucking Sengoku period

>Name it something else.
There is the Geass. There are mechas. There will be war and geopolitical themes. Probably there will also be the Code.
That's all you need and more to name it Code Geass.

>Name it something else.
It is what Gundam does

mechas in roman times will be fucking lame man. they should use airships and alien technology like in Age of Decadence.

it looks like a paradox game illustration.

are you unironically comparing popularity of sengoku and rome in anime?
if so it's embarrassing.

Gundam managed to actually reinvent itself properly. It has a rough core around which its franchise is built.

Code Geass is Lelouch. If they manage to reinvent themselves (which they haven't in multiple attempts), they may become a new super franchise. But that's not the reality we are living in.

>>292194734
Agreed on the quality of the spin-offs. They don't know how to make their recipe work again.
If this works out, fine.
But I'd rather they'd let Code Geass rest.

Regarding mechs in Rome, I am only afraid that it's just going to render the entire premise flat.
All those soldiers seen in that image are completely useless against a mech.
Those walls are designed for humans carrying cold weapons.
Mechs would rapidly erode the foundations of their society, and turn it into something completely different.

If they did it properly, it would be just a "look, how dumb these historic figures were."
And that's not a particularly good premise.

>Gundam managed to actually reinvent itself properly
What is "properly" other than "I don't like this"

Gundam was Char. Char is literally one of the most popular and influential characters in all of Japanese media. He is basically Japanese Darth Vader in how big of a character he is there.
And it isn't like Gundam didn't have less than perfect attempts after CCA either, like F91 and Victory before they decided they needed a fresh slate. And that is why this one is being explicitly compared to Gundam AUs by the producer.

>Code Geass is Lelouch
It clearly isn't. Rozè was doing fine before they decided to throw everything in the garbage in the last 3 episodes

Anon we don't even know whether the mecha are supposed to be an integral part of its culture/civilization, or some kind of OOPART that wasn't supposed to be there

i don't trust nips to write 'oopart' mechs in smartly.
it'll be fueled by shounen powerups, emotion energy, the big bad will have a bigger badder one.
stick to gentler tide turners if you want your story to carry any weight

you could tell me this was a texture mod for age of empires: rise of rome and i would believe you.

>>292200018
Well, the series takes place in Rome so that makes sense
