The Holy Britannian Empire is a formidable state that leverages its military might to extend dominion, and the tiny island nation of Japan becomes another casualty. In 2010, amid a global clash called the Second Pacific War, the once‑esteemed country was shattered into ruins and mockingly christened Area 11. Yet a single pupil intends to liberate Japan from Britannian rule through an extraordinary uprising. His name is Lelouch Lamperouge, and he harbors deep hatred for the Empire, scheming to erase its cursed title from the world. Lelouch's sinister schemes accelerate abruptly when he encounters the enigmatic woman C.C., who bestows upon him a supernatural gift called Geass that compels anyone he orders to obey without resistance. Armed now with a formidable power, Lelouch adopts the alias Zero, a revolutionary icon who embodies the aspirations of the downtrodden worldwide. He pledges to restore Japan"s former glory and exact divine vengeance on Britannia for the people and hope, in the shadows of history to inspire a new dawn.
