What draws you to Geass?

Why yes we are a poll. And yes I do live here. After reading something verity_isle said about people watching Geass for the lulz only and following most of the anime blogs, I asked myself why I watch Geass. I realized the answer has changed from the time I started watching the series to just after the Mao arc, when Geass suddenly became my *show* as I once viewed my other fave Naruto. So as usual, I have two questions to pose:


1. Why did you originally start watching Geass? When might be cool to know too since I know we have people here since October and others who recently marathoned the whole thing. It seems to me when a person started watching Geass partially determines the why.

2. Why do you stick with Geass AKA what do you love about it?


For me, I started with Geass sheerly because 1.)it was Clamp, 2.)Lelouch looks like Kamui and 3.)I love Kamui no matter what hell he puts me through. I did originally just watch it for the WTFery, although I always adored Lelouch. Now I admit I'm into the political intrigue and just how Lelouch is going to screw himself deal with things next. I might add more to this later but I'd rather hear some others first.

1. Why did you originally start watching Geass?
Why indeed? XD It was a mecha series from Sunrise and it had the added bonus of character designs from CLAMP. I was intrigued to see how well both will work together. It was also the promo scan of Lelouch in a cape, overlooking his shoulder that cinch it for me. He reminded me Kira Yamato, only much more smirkier than Kira.


2. Why do you stick with Geass AKA what do you love about it?
The Knightmares, of course. Why else would I stick with it? XD And of course the characters. I want to see more of their developments. What I love is just how vibrant the colours in each episode are. I've never seen such bright colours since Zegapain.
