They all look weird.

[carnivalogic.livejournal.com]

hmm...a CC, and a lookalike for Suzaku and Lulu. Edo era...OMG RETURN OF THE HISTORICAL ANIME (no more ninjas mwahahahaha)

[meomnimi.livejournal.com]

Why do they all look slightly demented and why does the person in the middle look like the lovechild of Lulu and Suzaku?

[snowdevil-crow.livejournal.com]

the lovechild of Lulu and Suzaku

:O

[lulu-holic.livejournal.com]

why thet have to show c.c's breat like that xD

[imarel.livejournal.com]

I guess that this (http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2009-12-07/code-geass/shikkoku-no-renya-manga-to-launch-in-2010) will explain few things.

[lonelyblkviolet.livejournal.com]

that sounds awfully bad.

[duo-aurion.livejournal.com]

I wanted Zerozaku, not some Fullmetal Alchemist ripoff. Son, I am disappoint.

who am i kidding i'll probably read and love it anyway

[kyriesanctus.livejournal.com]

... This looks kinda dumb. 8|

Sigh, I wish they would learn when to end something on the right note sometimes. Sometimes, you don't need more. It's done.

[woodwind.livejournal.com]

Nothing ever ends. You beat it with a stick until it stops moving and then beat it some more and then use heart paddles on it and keep on beating it until you've squeezed every penny out of it and then you use those pennies to make little toys of characters people USED to love that are really cheaply made so their heads fall off and you have to replace them a lot!

- OK the guys, we are going to make a new Code Geass.
- Great. We MUST put C.C. and Lelouch, they are both icons of the series.
- It's true, but we cannot make a new season with the end of the first series!
- Code Geass without Lelouch and his madman's strategy and without C.C. and plans on her backside, it is not any more Code Geass!
- For C.C., there is no problem, we can make a story in past, but for Lelouch...
- We have that to make a male character who will exactly look like Lelouch.
- YOSH!

Ah. Sunrise.

[mikage24.livejournal.com]

LOL!!!!!!!!
Suzaku might be in (disguise) for a threesome :D

[lalag.livejournal.com]

Ahh...at the left-side who is she...Luluko

[madhatterpan.livejournal.com]

I'm waiting for the twist, like, you think it's in the past, but it's actually hundreds of years in the future, and C.C. and Lelouch are bothering Suzaku's great-great-great-great-great grandson....who he either had with Nunally, or two of their descendants got together, which would explain the Lelouch!Sazuke lovechild part.

[drakyndra.livejournal.com]

I've actually seen serious speculation that instead of descendents, the two guys are ancestors of Lelouch and Suzaku.

...Which would actually be kind of interesting.

[somnia-lustre.livejournal.com]

Why does Lulu!zaku (in the centre) look like he has boobs?

[megatravis.livejournal.com]

Its a side effect of his geass, XD?

[megatravis.livejournal.com]

I am really going to like this, more code geass is good for me.

[inksmears]

LMFAO

Just when you think Sunrise can't troll any harder.

The character blurbs + chart

[sincere]

Who is this young man with an artificial arm? His name is Renya, 17 years old. He's a boy who was raised isolated in a certain village. His special skill is unfailing accuracy with throwing shuriken. When he meets with the mysterious woman C.C., he learns about the outside world!

Who is the identity of this mysterious man who resembles Lelouch? Could he be Renya's enemy? Dreaming of immortality, he seems to be planning to make the world his own. Although it seems that he has some sort of suspicious power, his true self is unknown.

This young woman is one we all know-- The immortal witch C.C. She has arrived in Edo, seeking a new contract with someone. Who will she choose to be her contracted partner?


And the little chart in the corner...

Geass rating: 2
Originality rating: 5
Challenge rating: 4
Shock rating: 5
Addiction rating: 2

[drakyndra.livejournal.com]

Oooh.

You know, the full translation is a lot more interesting than the summary that's floating around.

[darjeeling]

What. WHAT.

[chirigami.livejournal.com]

I think I could get into this, I loved the artist's work on Knightmare of Nunnally [that being made into an anime would be rather win] and it is more Code Geass. And seeing the translation makes it seem interesting really ~

[rayquaza.livejournal.com]

Setzaku?!

And maybe Leloukalike is Rolo from NoN. Though I've... never actually read it |D DERP NEVER MIND i r gud reeder

But C.C. ♥

[snowdevil-crow.livejournal.com]

OH HEY THAT WOULD BE AWESOME.

[selenityshiroi.livejournal.com]

Sooo...Not!Lelouch (who I assume will turn out to be a Prince/Emperor of Early Britannia) is going to end up kicking off the Britannian Empire's evil world takeover as a direct result of Lulu!zaku and C.C's actions, yes?

So the protaganists of this anime will have caused all the problems at the start of the first anime.

Because I think that'll be awesome.

[snowdevil-crow.livejournal.com]

I AGREE.

[lewdness.livejournal.com]

B|

[fujiappletan.livejournal.com]

this style looks very NoN, why not just give us NoN JAPANNNNN. ;____;

[nokiirat.livejournal.com]

the NoN mangaka is drawing this manga. maybe NoN is already over, so they gotta pimp new stuff.

[gem2niki.livejournal.com]

what? this isn't an edit? it looks so badly drawn for something official.........

[sincere]

It's drawn by the same person who drew Nightmare of Nunnally: see the art here

[sugar-dustbunny.livejournal.com]

C.C.'s outfit kinda reminds me of Wonder Woman's almost.

Was Lelouch the first person C.C. encountered who could actually handle geass? Just wondering because if not, we'll probably have to be prepared for a bad end.

[dr-weir-uk.livejournal.com]

C.C is also standing in a weird pose, like she's slipping over. :/

Handle it? He went mad and became a mass murdering tyrant.

[lavaliere]

8( They should've just done an anime of Nightmare of Nunnally.

[nayami.livejournal.com]

... How come technology in the past looks more sophisticated than technology in president Geass I'm looking at that arm for one, which could have come out of Scryed. Also, Black Knight symbol on mysterious~ other, and there I thought Lelouch made that by combining the symbol for Britannia and Geass.

I agree on Reyna looking like the ancestral lovechild of the boys.

[rkylo.livejournal.com]

...wat?

[powercorrupts.livejournal.com]

DID ESCAFLOWNE THROW UP ON THEIR CHARACTER DESIGNS?
