The sequel to Sunrise's mecha action political drama Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion follows the exiled prince Lelouch as he once again assumes his masked identity as the Japanese freedom fighter Zero, using his magical power to compel people to set up a series of convoluted plans that escalate to a world war. BJ and Duffo watch the first 12 episodes and discuss making an anime in the backroom of a convenience store, tricking the government into exiling over a million people onto an iceberg, and having your terrorism career interrupted by all of the hot dates your ninja maid scheduled while disguised as you.
