Well, today’s Marking Day and school’s out, so what did I do? Some people may spend the day hanging out with friends, watching movies, sleep, play games, watch anime, read manga, etc etc. As for me, as much as I’d like to watch anime and read manga, there’s really no new releases to watch. Conveniently, I had a sudden inspiration and motivation to create some avatars. So, I spent almost the entire day creating icons.
Click on the Avatars/Icons for the textless versions.
Well, that’s all for now. Who knew creating one avatar could take quite long (about 15-30 minutes for one).
Credits goes to Minitokyo for the Stock Images. Much thanks to the users there. There’s just too much to credit individually, so I hope crediting them generally will do.
I’ve created a Page for Avatars/Icons at the Gallery. Already added these there.
The long awaited second season of Code Geass: Lelouch of The Rebellion has finally aired in Japan today! And with it, came the opening. My thoughts on the new opening? Hmm….nothing special, I guess. The song is good but it just doesn’t seem right with Code Geass. It’s lacking something that was present in the first opening of Code Geass, which was Colors by FLOW. And it sounded kind of….happy?
Ah, anyways, the season looks promising. There are more new characters from the Knight of the Rounds, the Chinese Federation and such and not to mention more Knightmare Frames that actually looks nice (Only Lancelot, Guren and Gawain was notable in the first season).
Yay! More spoilers and pictures for the new season of Code Geass. Finally something good happened this week, albeit its already kinda late with the holidays ending soon and all but…who cares.
Anyways, back to Code Geass. I won’t post the pictures myself but I’ll provide with links instead since people have already gone through the trouble of uploading.
My thoughts on the spoilers:
Well, to put it simply, a lot has changed.
- Nina has had a total makeover
- Lelouch has changed (He looks more friendlier, whether thats just a facade still remains a question)
- Kallen is where now? In some facility?
- CC is leading the Black Knights instead of Lelouch?
- Viletta is teaching PE in Ashford
- Suzaku has been promoted (That much we know from previous pictures and its not such big surprise)
- Lelouch is seen holding a White King chess piece instead of the usual Black (in the PV) I think that means something
A lot of questions is arousing and people have already started speculating. I, myself, don’t know what to think anymore. I don’t really like speculating so I think I’ll just wait and see.
One more month till Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion R2.
Well, it’s actually only four new scans that I found while browsing through Minitokyo. Anyway, R2 seems to be getting better and better and I really can’t wait to watch it. I really really hope it won’t be a letdown and I also hope that my studies will not get affected in any way. The scans are all heavily resized because the original scan are really very big. So if you want the original size of the scan, head to Minitokyo and download it there. I think the uploader needs to be given some credit.
Suzaku looks good with his angsty (is there even such a word, I know angst but angsty . . ?) new look and there are quite a number of new characters to be introduced. Hmm…looks promising.
CC’s new outfit is black, eh? Looks nice. And Rollo (Lelouch’s brother?) looks so gay.
I think Rollo really is gay… Anyway, this is probably the main cast for R2.
The guy from the . . . Chinese Federation?
I can’t help but notice that there isn’t any picture of Kallen for R2. I wonder if that means something…Maybe she really was the one who got shot…but still alive nevertheless, as proven by the trailers.
I found this when I was browsing a forum today. Looks good, I’ll say. Can’t wait for the second season to air in April. Hopefully, it won’t cause me to lose focus in my studies. =P
The audio quality is a bit low, but I guess that’s not really important.
Well, in my opinion, Suzaku’s voice seems a bit off. It doesn’t sound like Suzaku, maybe its a bit too aggressive. CC sounds okay but Zero doesn’t sound like Zero. And Kallen sounds too innocent, but maybe that’s when she’s in school.
About time I updated on the new information about Code Geass Season 2, which is entitled Code Geass: Lelouch of The Rebellion R2.
As previously mentioned, the new season is going to air in Japan in April this year. Not too far away, ne? But I suspect I’m going to be busy with school and more remedials and homework by then because the ‘O’ Levels will be closer, tch. But I won’t let that stop me from watching Code Geass!!
Anyways, the official site of Code Geass has released several information regarding season 2 but I can’t read japanese, so too bad. You can use this site to translate if you want.
New images of the main characters are up, view them here. CC looks cool in her new outfit and Suzaku too. Looks like Zero has also modified his outfit a bit and the new character is there too. Lelouch doesn’t look much different though, except that his hair looks longer. Oh, and Kallen isn’t there!! Maybe she was the one who got shot, since both Suzaku and Lelouch looks okay.
There’s also a page for the Knightmare Frames. Guren and Lancelot doesn’t look different, and there’s also a new Knightmare Frame. It looks weird, if you ask me, especially the head, makes it look like a MegaZord from Power Rangers.
So that’s it. I don’t think we’ll be getting any more information about season 2. If they released more information, the suspense wouldn’t be there anymore.
Looks like the second game of Code Geass will be out March next year and it will be for PSP and PS2. The first one was for Nintendo DS. Also, it looks like this game will be a LOVE SIMULATION game!! Haha, of all things they could make a game out of. Anyways, I don’t know much about this yet so I can’t give further details. Maybe you can go here to learn more about it, it’s only a brief description though but still more detailed than what I’ve mentioned. I guess I won’t be able to buy it because I don’t own a PSP, even if I did, I don’t think I’ll buy it. I will, however, buy the first game made for DS though, if the US version comes out.
As the title says, here’s the dubbed trailer of Code Geass.
Let’s hope that the dubbed version will turn out good……
Anyways, Bandai has an official Code Geass site: http://code-geass.bandai-ent.com/
At the moment, the site is really empty. The information should be up by next year though.
Hmm…..I can’t believe it. I know that I’m supposed to hurry up and finish Night Head Genesis so that I can concentrate on revision but even though I know that, I still couldn’t help myself to read manga.
I just began reading Katekyou Hitman Reborn!, otherwise known as Reborn!. I’ve been wanting to read this series but kept pushing it aside, until now. My friend recommended it to me yesterday so I thought why not give it a try. Reborn is serialised in Weekly Shounen Jump so I thought it was okay to read it without worrying about my concentration since I read other series from there every week too and I don’t plan on stopping even when the ‘O’ Levels are near. It may help de-stress me. Anyways, I haven’t read any manga, excluding those from Weekly Shounen Jump, since I caught up with D.Gray-Man which was like last month(?). And the only mangas that I’ve read this holidays are Claymore and DGM so I think its okay to pick up a new series, right? Well, I think thats just an excuse for me to read manga. =P
Also, Code Geass: Lelouch of The Rebellion has been confirmed to air in spring 2008, replacing Gundam 00’s first season. I “heard” rumours that Zero is not Lelouch anymore but I hope that just remain as rumours. Lelouch not being Zero will ruin the whole series. And the new character in the background is speculated to be another member of the royal family.
