The elder brother Ash, with his extremely superior athletic ability and high Nightmare Frame piloting skills, and the younger brother Roze, who is intelligent and in charge of information gathering and operational command.
For four years by an impregnable energy barrier called the Situmpe Barrier,
The 100th Emperor, Caris al Britannia, who has repelled the Black Order’s liberation campaign,
The knights under the emperor’s direct command, including Noland, who serve him, and the Einbergs, are about to plunge the world into turmoil once again.

About Code Geass:

Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion,often referred to simply as Code Geass, is a anime-original television series produced by Sunrise. It was directed by Gorō Taniguchi and written by Ichirō Ōkouchi, with original character designs by Clamp.

The first season was broadcast from October 2006 to July 2007. The second season ran from April to September 2008. The series has also been adapted into various manga and light novels, with the former showing alternate scenarios from the TV series.

A trilogy compilation film titled Initiation, Transgression, and Glorification was released from 2017 to 2018. It altered the plots of several characters and created an alternate universe while recapitulating the events of both anime series’ seasons.

Code Geass Lelouch of the Resurrection, an original film set in the film trilogy’s alternate universe subsequent to the Zero Requiem, was screened in theaters in February 2019.

Crunchyroll described the overall plot of Code Geass as follows:

The year is 2017 of the Imperial calendar and parts of the world are under the control of the Holy Britannian Empire. Lelouch Lamperouge, an exiled Britannian prince, encounters a strange girl known as C.C., who gifts him with a great and terrible power. The Geass. With this powerful ability, Lelouch can get anyone to do as he wills. But the power of Geass: is it a blessing…or a curse?
