Code Geass watch order
How to watch
Watch Lelouch of the Rebellion (2006), then R2 (2008): that is the complete original story. Lelouch of the Re;surrection (2019) is a sequel film, but it follows the continuity of the 2017–2018 compilation trilogy, which changes a few key events, so watch the third compilation film (Glorification) or read a summary of the changes before it. Akito the Exiled is a five-part side story set between the two seasons with a separate cast, and Roze of the Recapture (2024) is a later standalone spin-off. Both are optional.
