Perfect Stage Fanbook (the one in left)
1. Special: New coverart & 2 new posters (1 for Lelouch, 1 for C.C.)
2. Animedia Graph: collection of spreads & arts in Animedia magazine. Most of them do not overlap with the arts in Illustrations Rebels. (Because of copyright issues, Illustrations Rebels has arts from Newtype and Animage, this one has Animedia.) A lot of them are first seen with textless version.
3. Prologue: 2 page introduction of Lelouch/Zero & C.C. together. (The new art of Lelouch holding C.C. in his arm is beautiful!) Then 1 page for Suzaku & 1 for Euphemia.
4. Character introduction: detailed intro of all characters in the 1st season. Lelouch, C.C., Suzaku, and Kallen each have half a page. The 4 above have new pic with the introduction. Then the other characters' introductions are categorized by which side they belong. And either have old character arts or screenshots with the introduction.
5. Perfect Stage Guide: screencaps and explanation of the flow of story in each episode. With summary (from editor) and preview from Lelouch. The layout is 10 times better than the "The Complete" introduction book released before.
6. Fashion show of the main characters. And Bust size contest.
7. Famous quotes.
8. Screenshot and introduction of the Picture Drama.
9. Introduction, cover art, and comic of the Sound Episodes. The comics are from famous doujinshi artists. Very cute and funny. Animedia had 1 or 2 tracks’ concept art on their magazine back when they were introducing the SEs. I’m glad to see they completed the comic for all 3 tracks.
10. OotBK News and Britannia Motto: silliness & fun to read.
11. Mysteries of Code Geass.
12. Masked Conference: conference of 4 staff members: Mr. K, Mr. S, Mr. T, and Mr. Y. Although it’s not told, fans believe Mr. T = Director Taniguchi, Y= Vice Writer Yoshino, K = Producer Kawaguchi. This part revealed a lot of background settings.
13. C.C.'s geass flowchart & Kallen's geography class.
14. Q&A: collection of the Q&A column in Animedia magazine, which answers questions on details. No big spoilers though. It also has a collection of 4coma column in Animedia.
15. The Order of the Black Knights Entry Exam: a quiz on how well you understand Code Geass.
16. Secrets of the Recording Room: cute short comic showing how the VAs & director Taniguchi interact in the recording room.
17. Software Catalogue: coverart of all Code Geass DVDs & CDs
18. "That's some weird Code Geass!": Funny fan comic for each episode. These were also on Animedia before.
BTW there's not one piece of crappy fanart inside.

Overall comment: Worth every cent! This is the best information & art collection for Code Geass season 1 up to date. Of course it does not have as much art as Illustrations Rebels (which is purely illustration collection), but the information part is a great plus.
