Possible date for 24 & 25? Hmmm...

[hellion-3.livejournal.com]

Hmmm...got this from Animesuki and since I'm handicapped by the language barrier, I'm not sure about both reliability and content. I just know that it's purported to be what we all hope it to be, therefore don't look my way for more guarantees - I cannot offer either. As such, don't get your hopes too high...but cross your fingers.

It's a possible airing date for the final stages of Season 1, coinciding with the private theater screening for a few hundred lottery-selected fans.

The 28th of July, 2007, MBS.

Thanks to Rob the Fox for the info. Once again, I dunno how reliable this is. Only people fluent in Korean and well-acquainted with the sources inside might enlighten me as to the link's credibility and dispel any lingering doubt.

Cheers nevertheless.

EDIT: corrected. Korean translator required. *cracks cat-o'-nine-tails*

EDIT 2: more or less confirmed by MBS. :D Caution still advised, though.

Um, well, I'd be happy to help if it were Japanese, but that's Korean n.n;

[hellion-3.livejournal.com]

Yup, sorry about that - I'm not at the top of my form today, so things tend to take a while to register and get fully processed.

Anyway, be it Korean or Japanese, it still needs some translating, in order to defuse the possibility that it's an advertisement for the theater screening, that fans mistook for the TV airing schedule.

Just saw that on animesuki myself! I really hope it's true. I can't wait. ^_^

hm... it looks like a screencap from a site, but who knows D:

[hellion-3.livejournal.com]

Which is why I'm asking for someone who can trace it back and see whether it's legit or not. The fact that it comes from a Korean message board/site made me (when Gundam SEED Destiny was still on, all the spoilers coming from Chinese blogs were automatically considered fake and the forum I was at only allowed info from Japanese sources) blink at first and considering the fact that people can easily forge screencaps and such is enough to make me step back and wonder.

If it's a false alert, then it'd all the more disappointing.

hahah chinese blogs can be very accurate at some times, as long as you're sure it's not a fangirl's thoughts XD

i would go look around the official sites, but i have work >__>

[hellion-3.livejournal.com]

If you say so. ;-) As for GSD, I'm just speaking from experience, since we had a fake spoiler spamfest coming from Chinese blogs right then, which forced us to only trust Japanese magazines (like Newtype, Hobby Japan, etc) and confirmed reliable sources. Even the spoiler people lurking on 2chan weren't given that much credibility, in the end...

Which is different for CG, since "Fake Okouchi" and "Pubes" have been releasing torrents of legit data on the series on 2chan, but both individuals have fallen silent for obvious reasons.

[x-reggg.livejournal.com]

i agree on that :P i'm speaking with experience from the tenimyu/burimyu fandom, where most of the information comes from the chinese blogs before people in the english fandom find it XD

it is coming out june 23rd of this month

[ryans-cupcake.livejournal.com]

remember awhile back when there was that contest for people to go to a special screening of eps 24&25? I'm pretty sure that was in August... Why would they play the eps before the special screening? I don't think that it's real.

[hellion-3.livejournal.com]

Nope, that was the 21st and 22nd of July in Osaka, for 500 hand-picked fans.

August is the deadline for an eventual TV airing since that's when the DVD containing 24 & 25 should be put on sale.

However, according to Celiss Galvea from GameFAQs, the monthly digital TV guide confirms that there is a Code Geass Special on the 29th of July, at 2:25am on MBS, but the folks at 2chan believe it's a recap and not the real thing, although this is the product of fan speculation.

And for further reference, here's the Digital TV Guide's scan for that particular slot:

Any way... IF THE EPS HAVE BEEN SCREENED WHERE ARE MY SPOILERS? I WANT MY SPOILERS!

[ryans-cupcake.livejournal.com]

Sorry, i dunno Korean nor Japanese. But the things is actually the same, the korean forum & Digital tv sources. its stated that the date is 28 July at 26.25/ 29 July at 2.25 am. So as you said many 2ch say that its only a recap so i think the Korean forum is misunstood it, or they just speculate it as 24 & 25 epis airing.
But if you see at the timeslot, the show is until 4 a.m. Its almost 1 1/2 hours, I wonder what they'll show us about code geass...(the special premeire of 24 & 25 epi is approximately 90 minutes)
