So I just finished episode 5 and holy shit, I don't even know what to say.
I haven't been this confused since my first viewing of End of Evangelion.
We went from base assault to everyone dying to Gundam Unicorn episode 7 newtype physics manipulation to Gypsies and peace in the span of an hour.
It was incredibly weird, but also somewhat fitting for Code Geass.
God I still can't get over how strange this episode was.
Although I didn't mind this I now understand why everyone was so pissed with the series.
Also the CGI was used a bit poorly here, now don't get me wrong I'm not some blind CG hater I liked Sidonia, Fafner, MJP, and even the last 4 episodes.
But episode 5 had some really poorly done storyboarding when it came to the fights.
This was very evident in the scene where Akito and the gang fight off the grunts storming the base.
The camera is flailing everywhere and almost nothing looks consistent.
Holy shit R3 is gonna be a ride if they reuse any of this.
I mean now it's basically confirmed that Geass powers are on par with the stuff Newtypes can do with psychoframe.
They're basically setting Code Geass up to be like UC Gundam.

director got too much freedom, at least the mecha porn was good

Who directed this?
I wanna assume it's the same guy who did the original show.
>>
>>15584831
nope, it's the guy who did Escaflowne: Akane, the hack
R3 is almost all the original staff, though. Director, Writer, Mecha/Chara designers, chief animators(mecha is gonna be 2D), etc

I don't know where you got this info but I will choose to believe it for my sanity

Ep. 5 was a fucking shit cash grab, the fact that you approve of that episode just goes to show how they know their target audience.

Everything Sunrise has ever made was a cash grab.

No shit, Sherlock. It's as if they were in the business to make money! Shocking, I know!

The trailer, that expressly confirms that most of the original staff is reprising the roles they held in the first two seasons.

Then why did you only say episode 5 was a cash grab?
>>
>>15584811
Frankly, I don't see what was so confusing about it, whether as a mecha show or as a Code Geass spin-off.
I didn't have any problems with the fights in episode 5, so your comments about the 3D just make me shrug. What was inconsistent? The camera moved the same way it had already done in previous episodes.
The fact Gundam has a lonhistory of using some magic hax at the end of their shows, so acting surprised towards that part of things strikes me as silly.
Finally, it's pointless to reference "R3" since they are probably not going to use most of this there.
