DVD Extras +alpha

[verity-isle.livejournal.com]

My Code Geass #1 DVD just came yesterday, so I thought I'd take some time translating the extras that come with it. They're all rather short, but some provide interesting looks into the series. And since I'm making a translation post anyway, I decided to throw an old interview I just got around to finishing in there, too. Ah, the days when we only had six episodes, and everything was ripe with promise! (It's still fairly relevant and interesting, though)

I'll be buying this month's magazines this Saturday, so you can expect more shortly. If they're not too long.

DVD Extras

( Oukouchi Ichiro (Main Series Composition) Interview )

I was planning to translate Yoshino-san's interview, too, but since most of it concerns his work and his relationship with Oukouchi, I'm skipping. Maybe I'll get back to it by the time DVD #2 comes out.

Now that the interviews are out, in come the special articles. If there's anyone who wished we're shown Lelouch crackling whips trying to get Suzaku's academic progress into gear (me, namely), you got your wish.

(Highly edited to retain comic effect. Whatever I can retain. Sob.)

( Lelouch-sensei's Britannian History Lecture )

The next is a gun design. I'm too lazy to make out the scribbles, but interesting thing is that Britannian guns use motors instead of gunpowder.
And then, next.

( Sayoko's Diary : The Maid Sees All )

...And now we're back to our usual programming. The official site summary for Episode 16.

( Episode 16 Summary, there be Really Obvious Spoilers )

[FIC] Closer and Collide (Suzaku x Euphemia)

[black-rose.livejournal.com]

Rather than spam the list, I thought I'd just link both fics in one post, since, well, they are sequels of sorts.

Title: Closer
Author: the black rose blkros
Characters/Pairings: Suzaku x Euphemia
Rating: PG
Summary: Set during episode 5, Suzaku's POV. Something was keeping them apart.

( Yuffie's gaze met his across the crowded station, and Suzaku realized just how far away from her he really was. 'Please show me Shinjuku, Suzaku Kururugi.' )

Title: Collide
Author: the black rose blkros
Characters/Pairings: Euphemia x Suzaku
Rating: PG-13
Summary: Set sometime after Closer, but before Suzaku and Euphemia arrive in Shinjuku in episode 5.

( Euphemia's father...the Emperor believed they were not created equal – Britannians and Elevens. And maybe he was right. Her father was a cold man, but Suzaku… )

I have individual mp3s uploaded at fomicry for you guys! To be more specific:

CODE GEASS Lelouch of the Rebellion OST INDIVIDUAL MP3 uploads, for people looking for individual tracks, or big files crash on their computers when downloading.

Buut, I also have the whole OST uploaded in a zip file, if you just wanted to grab that.

( It's under this fake cut! )

Like I posted about before: I have each individual episode of Code Geass uploaded [currently to 15], and will continue to update as more episodes get subtitled ( here ).

Code Geass @ fanfiction.net?

[vehemence.livejournal.com]

I've noticed that fanfiction.net doesn't have a Code Geass section yet-- meaning there's nowhere to post CG fanfics on that site... does anyone know how you can submit a new category/get it approved there? I looked all over the site and couldn't find anything about it =_=;

If I'm not allowed to post a question like this here than I apologize!

EDIT!

I'd like to ask everyone in this community who has a bit of extra time to email support@fanfiction.net asking them to add a Code Geass section. Seems like it won't ever get added unless we flood them xD
