3.0 out of 5 stars
I wish it was the complete season..., September 2, 2011
This review is from: Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion R2, Part 1 (DVD)
Now i haven't actually bought this yet, but i have seen the whole series, and i'm hesitant on buying this for one reason....they're so expensive!! I remember buying the COMPLETE first season for the same price just ONE of these volumes (and there are four volumes in total) costs. Although i would like to hurry and complete the series, i don't want to spend 30 bucks a pop for each volume, i wish they would just release a "Code Geass R2 the complete second season" or something.

Not to be missed, August 23, 2011
This review is from: Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion R2, Part 1 (DVD)
Its been one year since the Black Rebellion and the death of Zero. Lelouch is living the life of an average high schooler together with his little brother Rolo and.... huh? It seems that Lelouch has completely forgotten not only Nunnally, but also his identity as Zero. Caught in an attack by the Black Knights, Lelouch meets with a mysterious women named C.C., who reminds him of who he is and of his true purpose.....
I was so confused when I started this season. I had to pause the episode and make sure there wasn't an OVA or something I was missing. But explanations come by the end of the episode and we get right back into the rebellion. And wow, the rebellion actually goes somewhere. I had high expectations from the first season of Code Geass, but I was still a little worried about being let down. But no, this season not only met my expectations, but exceeded them. It does have a lot more battle scenes than the first season, which I found a little boring, but the plot moves right along and keeps you on the edge of your seat. I don't know the last time I was so excited about a show/movie. I even had trouble sleeping at one point.
The ending seems to get mixed reviews from most people. I thought it was phenomenally done, but I can see why some people might not enjoy it. However, the series is just too good to miss, so forget about the ending and just watch the show!
One warning though. This is set 1 of 4. Hopefully one day they will release a boxed set, but until then prepare to sink some money into this show if you want to own it.
UPDATE 1/16/12 - Bandai is downsizing and will no longer release new DVDs after Febuary. They will continue to manufacture and release DVDs already available until their license expires. BUT LUCKY FOR US!!!! For on February 7 there is to be a boxed set release of Code Geass R2! Go preorder now:

I am a fan of the Code Geass Lelouch of the Rebellion series and I was excited when I found this. I bought it from FRL at a good price. It came in the mail just four days after I purchased it online. I would recommend this product for anyone who is a fan of Code Geass.
