The abundance of art of this kind promoting Code Geass IS taking the piss a little though. I mean, Gundam Seed and the like had it, but they also had serious and just generally NICE images for promotion too (although it was a Gundam series, so they could probably get away with it.)
Regardless of what the images are for, the fact remains that I'm tired of seeing C.C.'s ass/breasts/legs put on display when there is much more to the series than that. It's like all the kitty!Lelouch pictures or even the Lelouch/Suzaku joined-at-the-ear thing. Sex may sell, that doesn't mean that it's the only thing you should use to promote something.
Maybe I'm not a very good otaku, because I generally don't see the point in fanservice of this kind. Of course, I appreciate that there are some who do, and may their pocket protectors be blessed, however I was merely saying that there is so much official fanservice art produced for this anime, that it's almost indistinguishable from Air or Love Hina or any other the many other anime where it's 1 boy/many girls.
C.C., Kallen and even Shirley, are strong female characters. I'm tired of them being portrayed as an otaku's wet dream.
