code geass

I am at the 10th episode of Code Geass now. 13 more to go, I think. It's unexpectedly good. I was thinking of saving the remaining episodes for my next Mangalore trip the week after next but it's so difficult not to keep watching it episode after episode.

Plot summary from Anime News Network: The Empire of Britannia has invaded Japan using giant robot weapons called Knightmare Frames. Japan is now referred to as Area 11, and its people the 11's. A Britannian who was living in Japan at the time, Lelouch, vowed to his Japanese friend Suzaku that he'd destroy Britannia. Years later, Lelouch is in high school, but regularly skips out of school to go play chess and gamble on himself. One day, he stumbles on terrorists 11's who've stolen a military secret and is caught by a member of the Britannian task force sent after them, who is Suzaku. As the rest of the squad arrives, Suzaku is shot for disobeying orders, while the military secret, a young girl, gives Lelouch the power of Geass, which makes anyone obey any order. While Suzaku is secretly made the pilot of Britannia's brand new prototype Knightmare, Lancelot, Lelouch becomes the masked Zero to lead the rebellion to destroy Britannia once and for all.

The Knightmare Frames are so Full Metal Panic-ish. And I thought some of the characters look so Bleach. Like the orange haired girl who is so Inoue. And a guy, I forgot which one, who sounds exactly like Ishida. I kinda miss Bleach now... dunno where it's at already...
