There was a crapton of CODE GEASS news and spoilers that came out today courtesy of upcoming issues of Newtype and Animage, both of which feature the show on their covers. As you can see on the right, one of the big stories is that Newtype gave an official announcement that CODE GEASS was getting a sequel. Admittedly this was something that most of us had already treated as a forgone conclusion ever since December, but it’s good finally to see it in print. I’m gonna stay away from talking about all the spoilers, but if you really want to know, you can read about them here (a big kudos goes out to poster Celiss Galvea). However, I will say that I was very intrigued by the fact that the mysterious girl is named V.V.
In other news, I’m getting really excited about the Spring 2007 season. I’ve started to compile a list of upcoming anime, and several have already caught my eye – Darker than Black, RomeoXJuliet, Shakugan no ShanaKaze no Stigma, Hitohira, Idolmaster XENOGLOSSIA, and the list goes on… There are also things like KOTOKO singing the opening to Hayate no Gotoku! and UVERworld singing the opening to Chikyuu he… that make me even more interested in those shows. In any case, the final list is going to be quite long, so please look forward to the full Spring 2007 preview, coming in a couple of weeks.

Man….I’m really excited for GEASS…I really want whatever artbook comes out for it.
The Spring anime is equally exciting (Hayate (the KOTOKO opening is a nice addition) and RomeoxJuliet are on my “going to watch” list)
Nice cover…….I’ll probably get that issue.
I hope you include Bokurano 😀 The manga is awesome and hopefully the anime will be as well with the staff coming from Ghibli!
the only anime im excited for in the spring is Mahou Shoujo Nanoha Strikers ^^
That girl in Kaze no Stigma reminds me of Shana from Shakugan no Shana

That girl in Kaze no Stigma reminds me of Shana from Shakugan no Shana
That girl’s cute.
I hope the sequel will NOT let Zero come back in the last few episode and let him say, “hey, guys I’m back. Eh, it’s ending soon? But, I just came in…” Sound familiar? Watch Mai-Otome(another sunrise production). It’s Mai who said that.
The girl in Kaze no Stigma appear to be the high school version of Shana – version 2.5???
I’m looking forward to Idolmaster XENOGLOSSIA.
Holy molly shi—
I’m more exited right now about Code Geass… damn it…
I wonder what rolethe mysterious girl named V.V. will play in the series?
@Omni:IF the spoiler is shown, please delete this entry. Thank you (I’m not used to this type of stuff)
I’m sure that Zero won’t be removed in the sequel. I think they will go more into C.C.’s past.
Also, about Bokurano, the op is being done by Chiaki Ishikawa (did the opening for Simoun and is one of the lead singers of See-Saw). Yes, I know I’m obsessed 😀
someone wrote code geass is a shounen show, i personally dont think show.. code geass definately different from gundam seed or w/e shounen crap.. so the ending wouldnt be as typical
what about Mahou Shoujo Lyrical Nanoha StrikerS? desu~
Yay, nice to see Celiss getting some kudos on here! I really can’t imagine how Geass is gonna end though, x_x. I wonder what Chikyuu he is all about, since I’m a big fan of UVERworld.
Ohhh~ I’m so excited about RomeoXJuliet! XD I love Shakespeare (although admittingly most people find it tedious) and from what I hear from other people there will also be other Shakespearian characters in this anime, not just those from Romeo and Juliet.
im dreading episode 23… bloodstained euphie.
not really..
RomeoXJuliet soon yay. Kaze no Stigma, wonder what that’s about, looks insteresting 😛 an shana like..
Idolmaster XENOGLOSSIA uniform reminds me of haruhi suzimiya for some weird reason O_o
Darker than Black looks interesting too ;D UVERworld song? KOTOKO song? Banzai~!
Can’t wait to see more GEASS ^____^
For Geass 2… Well, it really depends on how they end this season, but my guess is the same as WonTon, that they’ll reveal more about the power of Geass OR/AND show the rest of the royal family…
I never heard of ‘Kaze no Stigma’, but it looks kinda interesting…’Hayate no Gotoku’ is a must watch! But I’m abit worry how much they’ll change from the manga.
Most important of all, StrikerS!!!! (Omni doesn’t like Nanoha? :D)
the person that going to die in “Bloodstained Euphie” could be Cornelia. I was thinking if it’s Lulu, then what’s the point of code geass if there’s no Lulu. And it looks like Suzaku will play even more role in upcoming episodes.
Wow I’m really starting to look forward to lots of these new anime and the sequel of Geass. I wonder how Kaze no Stigma will turn it out with its obvious influence of Shakugan no Shana(which I love).
There’s also anime like Lucky Star and Kamichama Karin coming out in April!
KOTOKO is singing hayate no gotoku’s OP!?
looks like i’ll hav to dl the raw this time…
gahh..
I am really looking foward to Hayate Combat Butler
Definitely looking forward to Lucky Star, Kaze no Stigma, Romeo x Juliet and Battle Butler
It’s Terra (h)e, not Chikyuu he. It clearly has Tera above the Kanji in the title. It’s also based off a classic manga, the first volume of which was just translated.
Darker than black looks sooooooooooo damn awesome!! I really hope you blog that series I seriously cant wait to see it
Woah, KOTOKO singing Hayate no Gotoku’s OP? That makes it a must watch in my case.
Weirdly, I never watched Shana, despite ‘being’ being one of its OPs. Get round to it one of these days.
I read that mystery person of 18/19 is [spoiler] V.V is actually a guy and C.C did talk to him on EP 19 [/spoiler]
damn I use the wrong thing for the spoiler if you can edit or erase is it.
I agreed with you Omni about the spring season. There’s a good (and long) amount of great shows coming that makes me exciting too.
The upcoming season looks like it will introduce a lot of good shows. Looking forward to the official spring preview!
YES YES YES!!! I already knew of the sequel but i can’t wait xD
Suzaku is holding a sword o_O i’ve seen the same illustration done by CLAMP, maybe it’s part of the sequel ¿?
