Rate this book
El imperio de Brittania invadió Japón usando robots gigantes denominados Knightmare Frames. Japón pasó a ser denominado como Área 11 y sus habitantes, los onceavos. Un brittanico que en ese entonces vivía en Japón, Lelouch, le jura a su amigo Suzaku que él destruiría Brittania. Años más tarde, Lelouch está cursando en el instituto, pero es muy común que falte a clases para jugar ajedrez por dinero en plan Póker. Un día cae delante suyo un avión al que acaban de derribar. Este avión había sido secuestrado por onceavos terroristas para apoderarse de un secreto militar que había dentro. Lelouch se mete dentro del avión a investigar y termina siendo capturado por miembros de las fuerzas brittánicas, pero uno de ellos se resiste a que le hagan daño: Suzaku. Por intentar protegerlo, Suzaku termina recibiendo un disparo, al tiempo que se revela que el “secreto militar” que transportaba el avión era una nada menos que una chica… Inesperadamente ella activa en Lelouch la habilidad de obligar a todos a cumplir sus órdenes. Usando este nuevo poder, Lelouch logra escapar y decide liderar a los terroristas para enfrentar a la fuerza brittánica bajo el nombre en clave de “Zero”.

Sin embargo, a su vez, Suzaku secretamente se convierte en el piloto de un nuevo modelo de Knightmare puesto a prueba por los brittánicos: Lancelot.

Ivrea publica los tres principales mangas realizados en base a la exitosa franquicia Code Geass, originalmente una ambiciosa producción del estudio de animación Sunrise con dirección de Goro Taniguchi y guiones de Ichiro Ohkouchi; siendo uno de sus principales atractivos los diseños de personajes del afamado grupo creativo de mangakas CLAMP. El anime se emitió en las TVs japonesas entre 2006 y 2008 en dos temporadas de 25 capítulos cada una, sumándose luego varios especiales y OVAs.

Code Geass: Suzaku of the Counterattack, Vol. 2 is an excellent continuation of the story that started in the first volume. The plot is well-paced, with plenty of action and intrigue to keep readers engaged throughout. The character development is also top-notch, with Suzaku's struggles and inner turmoil adding depth to the story.

What I particularly loved about this volume was the way it explored the complex relationships between the characters. The tension between Suzaku and Lelouch is palpable, and it adds an extra layer of suspense to the story. The addition of new characters, such as Gino and Anya, also adds to the overall depth of the story and provides new opportunities for character development.

The artwork is also fantastic, with beautifully detailed illustrations that perfectly capture the futuristic, dystopian world of Code Geass. The fight scenes are particularly impressive, with dynamic action and impressive use of mechs.

Overall, Code Geass: Suzaku of the Counterattack, Vol. 2 is an excellent continuation of the story, with strong character development and stunning artwork. I highly recommend it to fans of the series and anyone who enjoys action-packed dystopian stories. This volume is definitely a 5* read in my book!

Suzaku with the power of the Geass?! Yeah, that’s an amazing ending.

Would love to see an anime adaption of this alternate version.

Wow, this has such an interesting alternate ending!! (Or maybe it's not an alternate ending, but the anime finished differently...)
The storyline difference was quite nice to read about, but there was also the fact that the rules of Geass were broken, and characters disappeared off the face of the earth without thorough explanation. I thought it was fairly clear that Geass can only be used on a person once, correct? Well, apparently not in this book. Or at least the events in which characters had been geassed never happened. O-o
Despite the few disappointing factors in this other Code Geass story, Suzaku of the Counterattack was pretty awesome. Definitely worth the time to read if you've read Lelouch of the Rebellion. (It also doesn't take very long to read, so the deal just keeps getting better!)

Continué porque tenía el libro y ya había comenzado el primero. Está aceptable, pero nada del otro mundo. No me interesó saber más de esta saga.
