The new Code Geass entry appeared in Japan. The title was originally known as Z of the Recapture, but Sunrise has since renamed it to Roze of the Recapture. The new title appears as a movie series, and the first chapter launched in Japanese theaters on May 10, 2024.
Roze of the Recapture takes place five years after the Lelouch of the Re;surrection movie. It features an all-new cast of characters. The title’s eponymous protagonist, Roze, is a strategy genius who is voiced in Japanese by Kohei Amasaki. He has an elder brother named Ash, who is also an expert Knightmare Frame pilot. The two are collectively known as the Nameless Mercenaries, and they take on a request to liberate Hokkaido from the oppression of the Neo Britannian Empire.
The new title comprises four movie chapters. The remaining chapters will appear in theaters on a monthly basis, with the fourth and final chapter launching on August 2, 2024. The movies will also be gradually available to stream via Disney Plus starting from late June 2024.
Sunrise has also published a new character trailer featuring Roze on the Code Geass series’ YouTube channel:
