Really? I thought the Death Note Dub was fantastic.

LMFAO. I listened the promo. Lelouch's VA should have been Suzaku FFS.

Yeah, Lelouch sounds kinda weak in this dub. Lloyd sounds like a noble who takes everything very seriously... which is to say not Lloyd at all.

I really like what I hear here! I foresee potential for this dub!

personal assessment:
Lulu: eh...I like Johnny, but I don't think his voice quite suits lulu. Liked his voice at the end though
suzaku:

viletta:

Lloyd: definately different, it'l be interesting how he pulls it off later on but so far

Kallen: eh, might get better but I'm not too crazy on it right now
Deithard:

others: not important enough or not enough context to decide
also...bad adult swim. How dare they cut ALI PROJECT short for commercials?

Jeremiah: Crispin Freeman. Hells yeah.
Kallen: When she said her first line, "We're not Eleven. We're Japanese," I almost threw up.
But the rest of the time she spoke was okay.

Forgive me for not reading past page 1, but how long has this show been out in English on CN in the US?

Adult Swim only showed the first two episodes so it pretty much just started.

Watched the entire series recently.

God, this really IS the realization of a "cool list" that the producers came up with, isn't it?

I feel horrible for it sometimes, but I genuinely did enjoy the series. For all its plot holes, inconsistencies, and absolutely horrendous use of cheap plot devices (I mean gebus, seems like half the characters are just there so Lelouch can kill them and create an ethical dilemma for us - I even thought Suzaku was a total tool for half the series. I later changed my mind about it, but now I'm leaning to changing it back...) - this was FUCKING GOOD ENTERTAINMENT. It's as good and bad for you at the same time as the Pizza Hut it so shamelessly productplaces.

Good job Sunrise. After either disappointments with their mecha-oriented steeds (like every Gundam series in many, many years) or good series that would obviously never be a commercial hit for them (Planetes), they finally produce a series that deserves its hit status - even if it gains it through means that are a shameless exploitation of today's "anime chic".

I'm guessing you haven't seen Gundam 00 then...
back to code geass,
I thought the story was well written. The writers really seemed to twist the plot at the perfect moments (unlike Casino Royale

)
...but that's just me
