New Code Geass Project Launch Green-Lit

So it looks like we can revive the discussion about whether Lelouch is dead or alive. According to a graphic on the mobile phone site for Code Geass, a new Geass project has been green-lit. Somehow, I’m not too shocked that this is happening, and really it was only a matter of time before Sunrise came back to this successful franchise. Two of the possibilities that came to mind are that it could be a direct sequel to R2, or it could be a completely different take, like Mai-Otome was to Mai-HiME. Astute observers will note that this announcement coincides with Lelouch’s birthday. There’s no word yet either whether it’ll be an OVA or full series or what, but apparently there’ll be more news in the new year.

graphic that reads as follows:

New Code Geass
Project Launch Green-Lit!

Wait for more info in 2010!!

The image adds that this project represents a “rebirth” and that Geass will take a new step starting today. The message is signed with the name, “ZERO.”

UPDATE:

Like yourselves, I too wondered what news we would hear about the new Code Geass Project.
Well, here it is:
“It’s called Code Geass: Shikkoku no Renya, and it is set in the Edo period. It’s a a Manga,
Here are some details:

•C.C. is back
•”unknown man” looks like Lelouch
•it will run in Shonen Ace
•character named Renya has a mechanical arm that shoots 100 shuriken

This news has just dropped in the latest issue of Newtype, which you can see parts of above. ”

Very Interesting… Though I am a little disappointed.Maybe I was expecting something ground breaking.
I guess we’ll have to wait and see.
