Why was Code Geass forgotten while Deathnote remains so loved?
>>

>Deathnote remains so loved?
Mocked not loved
>>
>>219941690
all i remember about this cartoon was when the cute white princess starting mowing down the greasy yellow nips with a machine gun
>>
mecha is less accessible to normies

I rewatched geass recently and its still pretty good

though the part about his dad and the temple borrows from Eva maybe too much
>>
>>219941690
Code Geass I beloved though
>>
>>219941690

Story in Code Geass is way more unhinged. It's enjoyable but on a lower rung of the ladder compared to Death Note.
>>
>>219941772
I dont understand why her soldiers would just open fire into a crowd in the middle of a speech? It would be like Trump saying “we should kill everyone” and his secret service immediately wildly firing in every direction
>>
>>219941690
In bizarro world

>>219941690
What are some other kinos with edgy antiheroes like those and AoT?
>>
>>219941811
It's an absolute monarchy where it was already policy to treat nips like shit

Shirley was best girl and I'm still mad
>>
>>219941842
Still, I would double check

I dropped Code Geass when she shot up that stadium.
>>
>>219941868
In an absolute monarchy you do what the royal family tells you. You don't run it up the flagpole and see.

Deathnote has more tiktok editors

>>219941902
Who gives a FUCK zoomie
>>
>>219941889
I would’ve just thought I misheard her because it was a ridiculous situation
>>
>>219941690
Absolute kino even though it got REALLY fucking dumb
God those were the days, the "just as planned" type shows, now we're in the brainlet isekai era
>>
>>219942011
Isekai era is over unc.
>>
>>219942020
What are we in now then? I still see endless isekai stuff coming out, think I preferred the moe era to this desu
>>
>>219941690
I think code geass played out much better from start to finish. Death note falls apart once L dies and the dollar tree versions of him go after Light

I watched Death Note only last year after seeing spoilers for it for absolute ages, I failed to remember who dies though so it still managed to be a bit of a shock when it did happen
>>
>>219942096
Code geass is basically a gundam AU, except the protagonist is a char clone this time

The only AU I like is G Gundam and Lelouche is way less compelling than Char. Ichiro Okouchi is the M. Night Shyamalan of anime the guy writes for a sixth grade reading level.
>>
>>219942219
My brother in Christ, anime is made for sixth graders. You are not the intended audience.
>>
>>219942241
A lot of it is made for drunk salarymen looking for escape. I am all for turn ypur brain off stupid, but Geass and Witch From Mercury are both pretentious as shit.
>>
>>219941690
Too convoluted. Deathnote is literally just "dude writes names in his notebook and those people die."
>>
>>219941690
I never understood the comparison, nothing in Code Geass is psychological, smart, or even well thought out, it's just plot convenience and the enemies acting retarded so he could win. People like it because it's supremely edgy with its protagonist who wears black and has glowing red eyes getting revenge on le unjust society. That and it has chicks shoving their big tits in the camera constantly while they join fedora lord's harem. People don't want to admit that that's why they like it though so they have to try to intellectualize it to cope. I don't even like Death Note that much either but its popularity is much more deserved, I can't deny that.
>>
>>219942991
Yes Code Geass was extremely kino.
>>
>>219941690
because death note is good and code geass is boring
>>
What if mecha anime were good?
>>
>>219941690
because season 2 sucked
>>
>>219941969
Anon it was bad writing to contrive a shocking swerve none of it makes sense
>>
>>219941690
>Kallen Staford
Is it really her show?
>>
Had a bit more of "because the writers said so" to it than Death Note.
>>
>>219941690
morel like code GAYASS

but meme aside Code Geass is more or less a teenage power fantasy while little to no added value, while Deathnote has an interesting premise.
>>
>>219941690
Because there was actually something to them, unlike frierenshit and other fomo slop
>>
>>219941690
Code Geass is overrated as fuck
>>
the moment that girl abused her power and killed all those people was a little edgy and didn't work that well.
>>
>>219941772
i thought she was jap too. you know, because she was trying to liberate them from the brits?
>>219941690
the death note has more possibilities for wish fulfillment and speculation than geass powers. code geass to me is a better anime but everyone remembers the book that lets you kill people. most geass powers have huge drawbacks so weebs cant fantasize about them as much
>>
top 3 time periods to be on 4chan
3. Twin Peaks S3
2. Every world cup/euro/olympics
1. Code Geass S2
>>
>>219941690
>Code Geass
No thanks, OP. I'd rather watch another mecha anime.
>>
>>219941799
death note is extremely childish and falls flat after L's death, its the most low brow normie slop anime in existence
>>
>>219942096
yes
>>
>>219944158
the tv hidden in the chip bag and light taking all the bait to kill people on tv is the worst writing I've seen
>>
This bitch fucking ruined it

Also Death Note was a one and done. They felt like milking Code Geass for every little semen droplet it was worth
>>
>>219941690
Code geass still gets sequels while Death note rots in the swimming pool of piss. Death note musical was kino though.
>>
>>219941811
Clovis literally did the same thing regularly
>>
I've never watched Geass but Code Ment is legitimately one of the funniest things I've ever seen
Purpleeyes was an actual genius
>>
>>219946246
well that's not fair

DN has live action alternate universes and a couple of manga sequels
>>
Season 1 of Geass is stupid as fuck, but very fun slop. The Rollerblading Mecha and tactics stuff were great as well.
Season 2 is utter shit. Weaponry in S1 is a bit more grounded, ground based mecha, modern jets, and tanks etc. In season 2 everything is super anime-fied, all the mech can fly, jets and tanks nowhere to be seen, no real tactics anymore.
Also the story is stupid as fuck dumbshit in S2 that makes no sense, tonnes of plotlines and build up from S1 are just forgotten about, like Sasuke's background, or anything interesting about CC, Geass or the Emperor.
Lelouche's plan is also retarded and makes no sense, like did WW2 end in world peace? Nope. Straight into the cold war and Korea. What makes Lelouche's plan even more retarded, is he could have just ushered in automated luxury space communism by ordering it with Geass, instead, he does some retarded shit where "if everyone works together against a common foe, all countries will unite and be friends forever", some literal 4 year old understanding of Geopol.
>>
>>219946355
As a deathnote lover I'm told the manga was better.

Is there a code geass fan who's ready to say the manga was better?
>>
retard
>>
>>219946748
Sure. Every manga is better than every anime
