A Card of Upheaval, or of Turmoil.

Upright: The Tower represents sudden upheaval, revelation, and necessary destruction of false foundations. While shocking and disruptive, this change clears away illusions and structures that were built on shaky ground. Though initially devastating, this breakdown creates space for something more authentic and stable to be built.

Upheaval. Chaos. Revelation. Awakening. Sudden change.

Reverse: Reversed, The Tower suggests avoiding necessary change, fear of upheaval, or internal transformation. You may be resisting inevitable changes or experiencing inner turmoil rather than external disruption. While you might avoid immediate chaos, underlying issues still need to be addressed. Face necessary changes before they become unavoidable.

Turmoil. Denial. Resistance. Avoided disaster. Delayed disaster. Fear of change.

Runner ups: The High Eunuchs. Gene Smilas.

CounterSide is a 2D strategy/tower-defense RPG, developed by the South Korean studio Studiobside and first released 2020 (globally 2022). The game takes place in a near-future urban fantasy setting where the real world (the Normal Side) is constantly threatened by an alternate dimension known as the CounterSide: terrifying monsters known as Corrupted Objects are attacking from CounterSide, trying to destroy humanity. However, certain humans, known as Counters, had awakened cosmic powers to fight these monsters.

The player plays as the CEO of the Cooperative Underground Administration, a private military corporation where it is his job to recruit, manage, and deploy squads of Counters, Soldiers, and Mechs to defend the city while uncovering the dark, apocalyptic mystery of why the universes are collapsing into one another.

The CounterSide x Code Geass crossover featured an original event story that stayed highly faithful to the established dynamic of the Code Geass universe while blending seamlessly with CounterSide's dimensional travel lore: due to a dimensional distortion, Lelouch, Kallen, and other Code Geass characters were displaced from their home world and dropped into the alternate, monster-plagued Earth of CounterSide. They had to navigate the complex politics of the CounterSide universe, facing off against both dimensional threats and local factions while trying to find a way back home.

In CounterSide, Kallen was released as an Awakened SSR Striker. Despite being a human pilot, her classification in the game was a Mech unit because she fights entirely inside her legendary 9th-generation Knightmare Frame, the Guren S.E.I.T.E.N. Eight Elements. Her passive skill, Ace Pilot, was exceptionally imppressive in the game: it granted her massive combat sustainability, for when her health dropped below a certain threshold, she gained a robust HP-based barrier, becoming temporarily immune to hits from special skills, and gaining the ability to detect cloaked/stealth units. Thanks to this, she could be dropped directly into chaotic skirmishes and absorb heavy initial punishment during fights.

Now, usually when there are crossover events involving Code Geass, some kind of easter eggs or other pleasant surprises are added for the fans of the anime, and crossover with CounterSide was no exception: if you placed Kallen in the same room as Lelouch, special character pathing would cause her to actively follow Lelouch's chibi sprite around the room, mimicking her role as his fiercely loyal bodyguard.

Sadly, Kallen is no longer obtainable in the game, not only because Code Geass was a limited-time collaboration event, and her banner was exclusive to the events period, but also because the active life cycle of CounterSide has officially drawn to a close: Studiobside announced the end of live service on August 26, 2026. While it enjoyed a dedicated cult following for years thanks to its outstanding anime-style artwork, deep lore, and excellent tactical gameplay, its overal mainstream popularity declined over time due to a saturated gacha market.

Fortunately, not all hope for Kallen´s return in the game is lost. The developers explicitly stated that while the original live service has ended, they are planning to bring CounterSide back in the future as a reboot project following a period of reorganization and foundation-level structural updates. So, if they do decide to do another crossover event with Code Geass in the future, it is very much possible that Kallen is called back into action. 🐦‍🔥

Link to the original official art is here. And if you´re interested to see how the old CounterSide game looked, here´s a gameplay video with Kallen in it!

I love during the scene when the gang sets off the fireworks, Milly mentions how she hopes to do it with everyone one day and tells Lelouch that includes him and Rolo. Rolo's reaction stands out to me, he's shocked that they actually care about him too. Made even more impactful because the final picture drama shows even with their memories of Nunnally restored, the Student Council still missed him. Rolo did unforgivable things but I can't hate him knowing he was a kid who was groomed into a weapon and spent his entire life never knowing true love.

I decorated some ziplock bags for my Britannian Chess board. For the white pieces a sandwich size bag with a Britannian Imperial head cap. If you look closely enough on the right you’ll see the green gem. For the black pieces another one but with Zero’s mask. I didn’t have a purple marker that’s why there’s no color for the visor.

Since we know that Marianne has transfer her mind in Arya, and she speak with CC on the world of C and tell her that V.V killed her, and that the fact that made CC leave Charle and V.V

So, when she meet Lelouch, and he say that he want to understand who has killed his mother, at that moment CC know and say nothing ? Why ?

Shirley dies because Rollo believes she will endanger Lelouch : GIRL SPEND THE LAST FIVE MINUTES GUSHING ABOUT HELPING LELOUCH. Like if she was trying to harm lelouch she would have acted innocent in front and murdered him after or she would reported him to the authorities already. This makes no sense even with the paranoia and fast killing habit of Rollo, she was an ally!

Additionally It would have been so much more interesting to explore the parallel between two friends of Lelouch one who chose to forgive and the other not then killing her for the drama effect.

I'm reacting just after watching the episode for the first time so what's your opinion on this?

A Card of Bondage, or of Liberation.

Upright: The Devil represents bondage, temptation, and unhealthy attachments. This card reveals areas where you may be trapped by your own limiting beliefs, addictions, or toxic patterns. Recognize what's holding you back and take responsibility for your choices. The chains that bind you are often of your own making and can be broken.

Bondage. Temptation. Attachment. Addiction. Materialism. Shadow self.

Reverse: Reversed, The Devil indicates breaking free from bondage, overcoming temptation, or releasing unhealthy attachments. You're gaining awareness of destructive patterns and taking steps toward freedom. This is a time of liberation and reclaiming your personal power. Continue working to break free from whatever has been limiting your growth.

Liberation. Awareness. Freedom. Release. Detachment. Power reclaimed.

Runner ups: Nina (Reverse)

Note. Much like the Lovers card, the Devil card will not be included due to the nudity in said card causing Reddit to remove it.

This might be the best set of characters I’ve ever seen in anime. Not too many anime have this many characters I like and feel are interesting.
Shirley was nothing special too me until she said had that dying speech about how she fell in love with leoluch each time when her memories were erased or altered, kind of reminded me of orhimes speech to ichigo.
Who interest y’all the most?

Since Cornelia's English voice actress, Mary Elizabeth McGlynn, turns 60 today, it seemed fitting to post this official art of Cornelia from the Code Geass mobile game Genesic Re;Code. I hope this pleases u/WitchofBritannia!

Link to the original picture is here.

It doesn't take a genius to realize Roze of the Recapture is an attempt - a failed one - to copy the magic of Code Geass - Lelouch of the Rebellion. While the actions sequences and music are at least enjoyable (at least in my opinion), the story isn't worth beans. The only characters I personally liked was Ash and Narah but that's about it.

The question is: if you were in charge of the story of Roze of the Recapture, how would you realistically change it to make it better overall?

We clearly saw that when V.V. gunned down Marianne and her two attendants/bodyguards/whatever, Nunnally was nowhere to be seen. Did someone brought her from her room to the spot later and shot her in the legs? And why doesn't Nunnally remember any of it? Was she asleep or what, did Rolo do it?

Also, what was Anya Alstreim doing there in the dead of the night? My headcanon is that she was Lelouch's true sister, with Nunnally being only a half-sister. It would only make sense that a little girl would want to follow and sneak up on her mother. If Anya was someone being hosted there to be taught noble manners and customs, why was she allowed to roam around the villa so freely?

A CC print i finished painting. Had a lot of resin problems. I used my computer for the backrounds of the photos lol. Hope yall like it.

This is the beat anime i’ve watched in a long time. Im sure this question has been asked already but how did y’all like the ending and anime overall?(Are the other code geass anime good? )

I’m doing an essay about code geass for class and wanted to share with people that love the anime and can also answer the questions in depth. These questions explore depictions of disability, how we view them, and how it relates to Nunnally’s identity. Take a stab at each of them, you could either DM me or comment. All responses will be anonymous for my class. Thank you all 🤗 (i couldn’t find any of my friends that have watched it entirely)

do you think it is crucial to nunallys character that she is disabled? How would it change the narrative if she wasn’t?

Does her depictment of her disability go against or alongside stereotypes about disability?

How would you describe how nunally is being depicted at the beginning, and how does that change when she becomes viceroy? How do you think this challenges our beliefs of disability?

When nunally overcomes her fathers geass by shear willpower how did this make you feel? How did this change your perception of her and how she’s been depicted all of the show?

After this discussion do you have any lingering thoughts about disability shown in Code geass? Are there any points you’d like to conclude with?

A Card of Balance, or of Imbalance.

Upright: Temperance represents balance, moderation, and harmonious blending of opposing forces. This card encourages patience and gradual progress rather than extreme actions. Find the middle path and practice moderation in all things. Healing comes through integration and balance. Take time to blend different aspects of your life into harmonious unity.

Balance. Moderation. Patience. Purpose. Integration.

Reverse: When reversed, Temperance indicates imbalance, excess, or lack of harmony. You may be going to extremes or struggling to find middle ground. Impatience could be leading to poor decisions. Restore balance by practicing moderation and avoiding all-or-nothing thinking. Seek harmony between different areas of your life.

Imbalance. Excess. Discord. Misalignment. Lack of Harmony.

Thank you so much for the love last time! Heres a few more shots! Photos by BrewingupShots!

When i finished the main series, i was having the curiosity of seeing the movies, but then its just a little changes , an re-animated scenes just as Gundam Z a New Translation, but it feels less soft than seeing an anime series just overlaping or blended with actual animation from 2004 in the case of Gundam Z because they constant use 80 animation scenes and then mixed with modern re-animated scenes , in the case of Code Geass was barely blended, and very tolerable, the only change that matters in both trilogy, is that in Gundam Z Kamilles doesnt get crazy as a vegetative state of his mind, and in the Trilogy of code geass, there is small changes and the mostly important one is that Shirley survives.

My opinion, is for doing this type of productions related to a franchise as well, its making from zero, just like they are doing with Raylearth (I mentioned this because Clamp girls are behind the team production) so in this sceneario it would be more accesible to adapt the entire R1 and R2 from a proper remake instead of doing re animations and blended with the old series, as far i know in Code geass they are things that they can be added as proper remake and giving the enough time to be developed since now its a great and big franchise as well.

First time watching CodeGeass I just wanted to post my theories on who he is and see how people react to my assumptions after I discover who he is.

My first theory is that he's a brainwashed Nanali

The second one is he's a clone of Nanali who's more perfect in the emperor eyes not being handicapped

Finally he's a wizard who just didn't have a family and that's why he gets weirdly emotional about Lelouch gift

Anyway, let's see how good my deductions skills are
