1. The Day the Fiend was Born
While on the way to school, Lelouch is unwittingly caught in
a battle between two forces (the Britannian army and the Japanese terrorists)
at Shinjuku ghetto. Running from one dangerous situation to another, Lelouch
meets an old friend and discovers a major military secret. That is how Lelouch
came to receive Geass-a power of unknown origin that gives him the ability to
control people's minds.
2. The White Knight Awakened
Lelouch leads the Japanese terrorists in a counterattack
against Britannia, with the help of his newfound power of Geass. His trap
is laid, his bait is set-but a new-generation Knightmare frame emerges to
foil Lelouch's plan. And the pilot is...?!
3. The False Classmate
Lelouch resolves to take the first step to changing the world, and kills
a prominent Britannian. It takes awhile for Ashford Academy to pick up on
the news, but that's not what concerns Karen as Lelouch confronts her about
Shinjuku-using Geass, of course. While Lelouch's blunder raises Karen's
suspicion about the mysterious voice who led Shinjuku's counterattack, Margrave
Jeremiah Gottwald launches an investigation into a murder. It's
time for Lelouch to act again when Jeremiah declares the perpetrator!
4. His Name is Zero
A mysterious, yet commanding new player reveals his motive in front of the
Japanese terrorists. His name is Zero, he has serious business with Britannia,
and he intends to rally equally defiant people to crush Britannia. As his
first proof of his genius, he orchestrates Operation Free the Perp! At the
Lamperouge residence, Nanally watches the developing events anxiously; in
the background, a stranger creeps up from behind the shadows...
5. The Princess and the Witch
Lelouch
a.k.a. Zero, has thrown the world into disarray with his single act of rescuing
Kururugi Suzaku. Part of the mess occurs within the military ranks as Jeremiah
is pursued by his peers for counts of treason. Can Suzaku stop the madness?
Also, 2 new characters debut as the new governors of Area 11! As you may
have guessed, they're both femme fatales!
6. The Stolen Mask
Suzaku's
first day at Ashford Academy is not going well...to say the least. Nasty whispers,
pranks and turned backs all fall upon poor Suzaku. It's a good thing that
Lelouch and Nanally are behind him! Speaking of Lelouch, a mischievous cat
takes off with something important of his, and an all-school frantic chase
begins!
7. Strike at Cornelia
Lelouch has a penchant for approaching confrontations with a losing-is-beyond-me attitude. Can't say I blame him. So when Cornelia stages a trap for Zero at the Saitama Ghetto, will events proceed like they did at Shinjuku? Plus, more blatantly obvious corporate sponsorship get-ups!
8. The Black Knights
"Those
with power, fear me! Those without power, seek me out!" Following the deft
disarming of a hotel hijacking by the Japan Liberation Front, Zero introduces
his new-found organization and advertises this catchy slogan.
9. Refrain
"I am half-Britannian, half-Japanese." Who is? This episode touches on te background of a certain unexplored Knightmare frame pilot,
while Lelouch's gives his two cents on Japanese life under Britannian colonization. Don't miss the Black Knights on their latest excursion against drug dealers! Drugs are bad!
