After all, the new Code Geass series is slated to have four acts in total. The first will hit theaters in Japan on May 10th before act two goes live in June. As for parts three and four, they will be posted overseas on July 5th and August 2nd. Disney+ has already confirmed plans to stream Code Geass: Roze of the Recapture act one starting in June. So thankfully, fans will not have to wait long for the movie’s global release.
Now if you are not caught up with Code Geass ahead of this big premiere, take a breath. You can always brush up on the series, and Roze of the Recapture is easier to prep for than you may think. The movie has confirmed it is set in an alternate universe from the original Code Geass anime and instead follows the timeline of Code Geass‘ compilation movies. Initiation, Transgression, and Glorification spell out this new universe before Lelouch of the Resurrection comes into focus. And soon, Code Geass: Roze of the Recapture will carry on the story. These movies can be found on home video now, and as for the original anime, the TV series is streaming everywhere from Hulu to Crunchyroll.
