      Personly I think the Resson Neo Brittian doesn't have more Advance Weaponery is becaue 1 Lelouch destroyed 70% the Main source of Sakudite used to make many of the weapons you talked about, 2 they closed themself off from rest of the world using the Sakura Wall so they don't have access to alot of Resources, So it makes sense there using less Advance Knightmares And the Resisntance is Kinda of an the same boat.
      As for how they have a Damocles Neo Britannia from what I've seen in the last episode brought there Own to Hokkido before sealing it off, and is it that Farfetched that Maybe some Members of Cammbodia managed to sneak out the Blueprints before Lelouch purged them, brilliant as he is, Lelouch has proven that he's far from Perfect.
      As for the Sakura Wall is it that hard to Believe that maybe it's more Powerful then the Ginjufu disrupters used in the Past, also you should also take into account there might be another unknown reason the Black Knights don't invade the Hokkido block
      Also from how I understand it, it's only been 2 Years Sense Neo Britannia occupied the Hokkido Block not 4

    These aren’t impactful moments because they aren’t suppose to? It’s not like Todo getting rescued was such a hype thing back then other than being something that happened so that Lelouch can move forward with his plans. Ash and Roze should be the main focus with everything else taking a side step back and playing support with only 12 episodes currently(season 2 maybe?) This kind of pacing works here for things like this that don’t need to be dragged out. As for grievances with the setting I think You just gotta have the right expectations going in. You can’t expect everything to be explained in the first 2 episodes without an info dump. This Is what we have Almaria of Novelty for, it’s a prequel to Roze that takes place in the time gap to explain the setting. Roze of the Recapture should focus purely on its main thing and leave out the setting stuff to out side materials and this prequel.

      There's difference in most of those cases. For instance, Sakura is not a child who is younger than the protagonist, nor is she blind and crippled. Ash's personality is literally nothing like Rolo's. Nor did Lelouch ever use Geass on Rolo, so that's a major and significant point of divergence. Rebel groups exist in millions of stories, so that's not an issue.

  • @Bluerocket94

    Yeah I feel the same. It just feels very rushed how they are going about it and it is due to the episode count. The world building is slow and they are not really showing how this neo Britannia came to be or what it is in this present day series. I feel as more episodes come out the world will be more clear. But I feel they are trying to make a twist in each episode and slowly reveal the world. Like how we got a little more of Ash, who he was and how he became a nameless mecerenary. Which I wasn't surprised of Rose using their Geass of Ash. I wonder if she gave him a choice, like either serve the daughter of the man you killed or follow his fate and die. We don't hear the command so I am sure that will play somehow. But neo Britannia still seems like this black hole with little information which makes the deaths of characters we are literally introduced to and die in the same episode doesn't really care much weight. Hopefully these deaths have meaning to other characters which builds the world up.
    I am honestly I'm the same boat. I love this series and happy for these new episodes. I just hope they are able to recapture that Code Geass spark and make it one that goes with the series and not just a copy and paste let's do area 11 again.

      What do you mean by meaning of their deaths? And their weight? The characters who died like Arnold serves a purpose to reveal information about Ash.

  • @rathalos1522
    @rathalos1522 Před 10 dny +4

    What I think, is that in R1 by the end of episode 2, we only just wrapped up the stolen C.C./Shinjuku Ghetto conflict. Pretty much all the time we saw Clovis here, it was in the context of that specific conflict, and then he died. R1 needed time to build up the image you have of it, so would Roze. That leaves less time for other things afterwards, but that is something for later. It almost sounds like you are saying that anything that does not have more than 4 hours of runtime (12 episodes) is by definition a bad story, which I am sure you agree is absurd. I don't think this series is aiming for a story on the same scale as R1+R2.
    And yes, strolling leisurely when you know danger is approaching looks kind of awful. I hope they show it later on as a recognized part of their failing.
    By the way, the situation with the Situmpe wall next to the prison was indeed quite confusing. It seems both attacks came from the same side, but in one shot the giant purple field was not visible when it should be.
    On another note, said wall is very distinct from Gefjun disturbers both technically and narratively: It's a giant, stationary structure that acts as a barrier for things crossing it, not an easily launchable small device disabling things in an area. It's entirely reasonable that it would not be as easily countered as the disturbers. Though that does not explain why the Black Knights could not just bombard the towers from outside...
    As for the lack of higher tech equipment like float systems: it is odd that they have not explained it, but at the same time they are very consistent with it. I'm willing to forgive them, because the combat is just much more interesting to me this way.

      Ping Pong the animation is only 11 episodes and is fantastic.
      The problem here is they are coping moments from the og anime without the setup.
      So the payoff doesn't feel earned.
      Arnold's fate and Kuroto's rescue has no gravatas to it.
      If the series wants to copy these moments then it has to devote to time to set them up.
      They only need to make the story on the same scale as R1 + R2 if they want to copy those moments.
      If the limit was 12 episodes then I would focus one major thing not several to build towards.
      A prison rescue could be a whole arc to itself.

      @@MyMediaChops An event can reference the previous series without being an attempt to copy or recreate it.
      Like you said, rescuing tohdoh was the rescue of a well-established character. Here, the rescue was a character introduction. I.e. more similar to Lelouch revealing his face to Kirihara. Arnold's death was not at all similar to Jeremiah's defeat, instead it was used to set up intrigue about Ash's past. Yes he did get a slightly extended death scene, but he was the main antagonist of this episode. Can't exactly give him nothing after that.
      You're reading a ton of author intent into this, but that's entirely your own interpretation. Perhaps question those assumptions you're making?

      @MyMediaChops  Před 10 dny +2

      @@rathalos1522 it's not just that the referenced it's how they executed those events it seemed like they were trying to recreate it. Conceptually I don't disagree with the idea that a rescue can be an introduction to a character. I just think if they want to go that route then don't outright copy what happened in stage 17.
      Gran and greed didn't get an epic death. With Arnold he did but it's not just it was a longer death sequence. But it was how it was executed.
      The circumstances were different but if you compare the scenes they are quite similar.
      My interpretation comes from interviews with the actors who claim that this show is going to recapture the magic of Code Geass. The fact that the previous stuff also references the original anime and in some cases tries to recreate stuff from it.
      Resurrection was a clear example of this and this is just continuing the legacy.
      I have been burned enough by this IP to know when they are doing stuff like this.

      @@MyMediaChops This isn't trying to be Ping Pong. Is there any golden rule that you can't have a prison rescue at the beginning of a show and develop the characters later? No, there isn't anything like that. Anyway, I liked the scenes with Arnold here, without needing to learn the whole story of his life in advance. We still got some sense of his arrogance and that he had previous connection to Ash, which might be important as a clue to future events. It doesn't need to be a huge subplot before Arnold is even allowed to fight Ash. It's like saying we should have learned more about Villetta first, before Lelouch was allowed to use Geass on her. You can argue there's not a huge payoff for the prison break now, but I think that's part of the point: establishing that the first prison break failed. Now we're seeing the effects of that situation on Sakuya/Roze, which will likely feed into future events.

      ​@@knightmarepilot4832 You weren't following the conversation.
      The user said that I wouldn't disagree with the concept of a 12 episode series.
      And I mentioned Ping Pong as an example.
      No comparison was made between that series and Roze.
      Of course a prison break can come at the beginning of the series it just won't have the same effect if it happened later on.
      The problem with this prison break is that the impression is I the viewer am supposed to be emotionall impacted by this.
      As if rescuing this guy is going to make a major difference or feel the emotional connection between him and his subordinates.
      But I don't feel anything in either case.
      Later on I probably but not here when I was supposed to.
      You can't compare Villetta to Arnold.
      Villetta doesn't have a lengthy death scene nor the same role as Arnold.
      Btw if you liked the Arnold stuff great.
      I didn't we both have different opinions and arguments to back them up what is the problem?
      Yeah Roze said that she underestimated Neo Britannia and will try harder next time.
      This emotional moment is better because of the prior setup.
      So when Roze fails despite the stupidity of the scene I still feel bad for the character.
      I also agree that failed attempt to rescue Sakura will play into events.
      I just don't agree with how they handled Arnold and Kuroto.

    Don't remember the specific details, but Lelouch destroyed most of the sakuradite reserves in the world.
    Considering they only occupy Hokkaido and probably need to use whatever reserves they have to keep that wall active, they probably didn't have enough to spare on a hadron cannon or any of the other energy weapons.
    The black knights could probably only manage to use such weapons since they basically act as the world military, you know, kind of like marines from one piece.
    You do have a fair point about the urgency thing. She should have been running for her life or at least not taking her own sweet time.
    Even if she didn't get Kuroto out, getting Sakura out would have been a pretty big deal for morale if nothing else. But I mostly chalk that up to naive optimism. We still don't have a full grasp of any of the characters in the show, so it may be too soon to say.
    Now Kuroto, my dumb brain honestly confused him for Todo. I had to pause for a second and go check the wiki to make sure yeah, that's some new guy. I genuinely thought he was Todo but older when I saw him.

    Man, you instantly complain whenever something doesn't follow your own personal logic. That attitude really is the single worst way to consume media. I just shrugged when you were ranting about the wall once again. Anyway, why should the local forces of Hokkaido have Vincent Wards? Not only is that also an older model by now, just like the Akatsukis, they're not members of the Black Knights. It also sounds like you want them to maintain the same pacing as the original show, but that's impossible in 12 episodes. True, we aren't going to immediately care about every character beforehand, but you're not even giving them a chance to start moving before you say "I don't care". That's the one-way road to becoming impossible to please, my man.

      I don't like the framing of this because your implying this is a specific thing only I do vs other people.
      In reality everyone will get upset at something that bothers them for a smiilar reason.
      This situation isn't about my personal logic it is the logic of the series.
      There are already established lore that's being ignored so this plot can plot.
      that is why I am angry.
      I am not going into this series to hate it that has never been the case.
      If you watch the first reaction, I enjoyed the episode despite having similar world building problems to this episode.
      The seven shinning stars work with the Black Knights.
      Even if they didn't at this point the BK and Britannia militaries are united so Japan should have access to those KMFS.
      Given how weak these new KMFs are, even older Vincet Wards would be better than this.
      Of course this assumes they wouldn't have new ones which they would.
      If they want to copy moments from the original anime then yeah that would require following the pace of og series.
      They don't have to do this and they don't have to make this a 12 episode one season anime.
      The reason why I talked about my apathy is because the series is creating these moments that are supposed to cause the audience to care.
      For example everyone is happy that Kuroto is back or Arnold's death is supposed to sad or something.
      But if we don't have much time with them prior to it why would I care.
      Not sure overtime I probably will start to like the characters but that doesn't remove this problem.
      You must be new to the channel in that case welcome.

The 7SS are on the same side as the Black Knights, but they aren't one and the same organization.

      ⁠@@MyMediaChops Also there is no Britanian military, there is only this watered down BK that went through demilitarization efforts after Resurrection. Keep in mind that according to information revealed in the pamphlets for movie goers, the wall not only disable units that passes through it but also suppresses Sakuradite reactions for units inside. All sakuradite based machines have their outputs halved and advanced weaponry like the hadron cannons or float units of kmf scales are disabled across the board with the energy wings variant seeming to be the sole exception. And a frame having more advanced weapons doesn’t keep it safe from being outclassed in other areas. Just like how Albion arguably having more fire power with hadron blasters doesn’t make it a better kmf than Sin or Nagid Shu Mane when it is indeed inferior. So no a Vincent would not have shared better if the Akatsuki-Upgrade are outdated relics compared to the Camedens despite your biases.
