The series has been confirmed to be a 4 episode OVA with each episode being about 50 minutes. Each episode will appear in theaters and then be released on DVD/Blu-ray 3 months later. The first episode will air this summer. This information comes from Ichiko Hashimoto's blog, which you can see here.

Mark your calendars, January 12 at 22:30, there will be a live web announcement at bandainamcolive.tv/geass regarding the new series, casting news and other information.
I just some new news about code geass r3 release date for January of next month !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am so excited :)
Does anyone else recall way back when the new Geass projects were being announced that Kawaguchi, the Code Geass producer made a comment about he'd love see a version of Code Geass on stage? (I certainly recall it, just because of pirouetting Suzaku jokes).

Well, check out this year's announcement for Lelouch's birthday.

ANN has helpfully translated the relevant details: In April of 2012, there are going to be 13 performances over 9 days of Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion: Sōran Eve Matsuri (Riot's Eve Festival) at the Mozart Hall at Tokyo's Katsuhika Symphony Hills

More details and ticket pre-orders will be open on Christmas Day.

I really hope it's a musical.

The official site also has something up about Akito, if anyone cares to translate.
Amazon.co.jp has recently been updated with some information about some Japanese DVD Box-Sets for both seasons of Code Geass, which can be seen here:
- First Season.
- R2.


Both box-sets will contain all 25 episodes each on 6 disks, with the first set also having the two filler "recap" episodes. They both retail for 19,950 yen, 14,673 yen after the Amazon discount.

Looking at the Amazon pages, the special features on these box-sets are going to be very limited, however they will each include a 32 page booklet, new box art by Takahiro Kimura, and 2 different (and I believe new) special promotional videos for the Boukoku no Akito gaiden. That's one different video on each season's box-set.

The box art for R2 isn't on display yet, but you can see the first season's art already.
Look, some new Geass art that isn't all T and A. )

The first season's box-set is due out on the 27th January, 2012. R2 is due on the 24th February.

ETA: The Offical Code Geass website now has information up about the website, as well as that box-set illustration all in one flat piece of art.

The 2012 calendar features some new Code Geass illustrations including a new character and illustrations for the upcoming Gaiden.

This month's Newtype Ace should also have some information on a new manga spinoff or something. Let us know if you run across it. :)
A Code Geass Gaiden OVA DVD has shown up at Amazon.jp and other online shops with a November 2011 release date. 2ch is speculating.

ETA: Amazon.jp listing has disappeared. :(
So, it's that time when all the Japanese magazines start to leak early, and this month has a whole bunch of new stuff for Code Geass.

Firstly: A new Super Robot Wars game is coming out on PSP, and it includes Code Geass.

Rumours floating around certain forums are that Super Robot Wars Z II: Hakai-Hen is the first part of a two-game series, and as such will be including only the first parts of certain new series, like Gurren Lagann, or the first series of others - including Code Geass. This game is due out April 14th; no news on when the second game, assumedly including R2 will be coming up.

The ANN report links a Japanese post with scans, including some Lancelot pictures.

ETA: And the first trailer will apparently be online January 12th, if you're looking out for that.

And what is probably much bigger news: Newtype has character art for Boukoku no Akito

The two leads, apparently )

I've yet to see scans of the accompanying article, so I can't tell you anything about what plot details it may contain, and it seems we still haven't got confirmation as to if this is an OVA or a TV series. If anyone finds anything else out or sees some better scans, let us know!

(Also the first volume of the Renya manga is due out later this month. The article also had a small picture of it's cover, if anyone wants me to post that.)

But anyway: Discuss.
Geass.jp has updated with an image of the mech previously posted...not much else is revealed.
So, scans of this month's Newtype have made their way online, and we finally have some more information about the upcoming Code Geass Gaiden, Boukoku no Akito.

And by "more information" I mean Knightmare Frame designs.

Cut for large scans )

Anyone care to translate the article to see if there is any other new information there?

Also, for those who weren't aware, three chapters of Shikkoku no Renya have been scanlated so far.
Geass.jp has updated with news on their new project that they've begun working on. It looks like there will be more information released in the summer.

If someone can translate any other new information, that'd be great.

And here's the Code Geass article in Newtype 6.

The information was previously posted, but here's the PV from the Kiseki DVD to confirm the information...

I'm assuming "video works" = new anime

Also, from the Newtype January issue, there's going to be a new manga series serialized in Shonen Ace.

Starring a NEW main character, Renya, the adventure of “Code Geass” unfolds once more. A new manga script writer, Goro Taniguchi, makes his debut with the newest “Code Geass” project serializing in the monthly magazine, Shonen Ace. A manga series with Taniguchi, the director of the anime, writing the script, and Tomomasa Takuma doing the artwork. “I show much gratitude to both the head editor of Shonen Ace and the manga artist, Mr. Tomomasa Takuma. I’d like to take on this project as a challenge, being an inexperienced manga script writer,” says Goro Taniguchi.

The long-planned project finally comes to materialize. “The new project, ‘Renya of the Dark,’ will be an episode within the ‘Code Geass History.’ There will be stories from two different eras in the same world. The anime featured the ‘Lelouch of the Rebellion’ chapter, and we see this as the ‘Renya of the Dark’ chapter.” This “Code Geass” will be expressed through manga. READ THE REST HERE
