Learn How Humor Helps The Good Guys Triumph With Code Geass Anime Review

By Christa Jarvis


A television series in the seventies considered by many animation movies experts as the beginnings of the genre provides valuable insight into the exponential growth of anime. The series was supposed to go for 12 months, but after ten, it was almost axed from popular television. However, the developers noticed that there was a small loyal following. Today, the fame of anime is evident when reading such popular reviews such as the Code Geass anime review.

Code Geass begins in 2010, with an evil empire hell bent on conquering the world. The Britannia Empire invades countries across the world and Japan becomes one victim. The Japanese invasion proves easy as the empire uses mobile vehicles. The people of Japan have their sovereignty and dignity stripped away, and their country is renamed area 11.

A peculiar twist of events leads to hope of rescue. A cunning prince, exiled from the Britannia royal family, seeks to bring down the evil empire. Through a twist of events, the prince gets to meet a mystery woman, dressed as a masked terrorist. Through the meeting, the prince gets control of the Geass, with which he can get anyone to do his bidding. With this, his dream seems closer to reality.

The storyline of this animation series can be compared to many more before it. A notable similarity in this movie plot can be drawn to the Valvrave series. The main character in this series leads a revolution, and uses a magic object, together with clever chess moves to do it. However, that seems to be the end of the similarity trend.

However, it seems to be the end of everything mainstream about this series. One impressive coup the series pulls is having impressive characters. They manage to inject humor into subjects that are otherwise quite serious. The speech of emperor on international television is delivered in an over the top funny way. The main character never misses an opportunity to add a light touch to any situation.

One big difference, though, is the nature of the main character. Although a hero, he is not the typical white knight hero. The main character is not a saintly person with good intentions. He seems resigned to using anyone to meet his goals, and normally does not care whether they get hurt or not.

Since the seventies, animation movies have grown and developed. During the past, they were reserved for the geek minority, but geeks are slowly being accepted. Look at the popular geeky storyline movies and series, like the billionaire geek Tony Stark in the Ironman Franchise, or the three academics in the Big Band theory.

But that is not the only reason for their success. In the western world especially, they satisfy curiosity of people by bringing them aspects of Asian and Japanese culture. Animation movies explore complex themes and present them in a simple, funny and entertaining way and this animation movie is a perfect example.
