New Code Geass Artwork Released

In the lead up to Code Geass‘s three-part film project, a new piece of artwork has been released and has spread all over social media. The new viral image is of the series’ main characters in Lelouch Lamperouge and C.C. The new piece of artwork showcases the two characters sitting together, as they hold each other in one another’s arms.

These new parts will be the first inclusions to the series since Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion R2 ended in 2008. As a result, fans are eagerly awaiting the upcoming project to be released, with the new image only increasing their excitement.

You can read the synopsis for Code Geass’ first volume below:

“In the year 2010, the Holy Empire of Brittania declared war on Japan. Powerless to stop them, Japan surrendered in less than a month. Freedom was lost and Japan was renamed “Area 11” and its people became known as “Elevens.” Lelouch is a Brittanian and his friend Suzaku, born an eleven, has achieved the status of honorary Brittanian.

As a boy, Lelouch vowed to crush his own government, but now seven years later and in high school, he’s accepted that he can’t change anything. That is until he meets a mysterious girl that gives him the power to control people’s minds – the power of Geass! He dons a mask and becomes the ruthless terrorist known only as Zero, destroying any who might stand in his path – including his boyhood friend Suzaku!”
