YES YES YES DO WATCH.

It starts out pretty solid, gets cracky in the middle and has me hanging on a delicous cliff-hanger. If anything, it's worth watching just for Lelouch. He's a devious bastard in the same vein as Light, except that he's also a physically weak, unskilled mech pilot in a mech series--and his carefully laid plans have a habit of failing with disastrous results.

Also, all the female characters in the show are great, which is always a plus.

Ditto all that. Plus it's one of the first shows where he antihero's downfall may, in the end, be his own sentimentality.

Considering it's a mecha series, it's pretty original. I was surprised by it.

Unrelated (well sort of related): I love your icon heebee, lol.

Yeah, I was pleasantly surprised by it as well. I wrote it off at first but then I decided to download the first 6 episodes on a lark and ended up being drawn in.

The icon always cracks me up. I nabbed it from this post. There are some other pretty funny ones in there ("This is Lelouch of the Rebellion! Not Jesus of the Counterattack!")

Yeah, the mecha thing almost put me off of wanting to watch the series since I'm not too into mecha series at all. ^^ But from what everyone's saying, it's not just your run-of-the-mill boy in giant robot kind of thing. The really original mecha series are always really good. :D

Lelouche is the main guy, yah? If so, his design sort of got me interested in it in the first place. ^^ Glad to hear he's as devious as Light. ♥ And that all the female characters are good, too. :D

I'm going to go download it right now, I think. XD
