Code Geass Writer, Character Designer, C.C. Voice Actress Announced as Guests at Anime NYC

More special guest announcements are rolling out for the upcoming Anime NYC! This time, it’s none other than key Code Geass staff: writer Ichiro Okouchi, character designer Takahiro Kimura, and C.C.’s voice actress Yukana. The three will grace the special screening of the sequel film Code Geass: Lelouch of the Re;surrection, as well as attend a special behind-the-scenes talk about the making of the film project.

Code Geass: Lelouch of the Re;surrection was released in Japanese theaters on February 9, 2019 and after a month in theaters already earned more than 1 billion yen in ticket sales. The new film serves as the finale of the entire series, which finished its 50-episode run more than a decade ago. From 2017, Sunrise has released three compilation films to serve as a refresher to audiences: Code Geass – Hangyaku no Lelouch – Kodo (October 2017), Code Geass – Hangyaku no Lelouch – Hando (February 2018), and Code Geass – Hangyaku no Lelouch – Odo (May 2018). Besides being a recap of the Code Geass series, the compilation films also featured new scenes not seen in the series, with new voice recordings from the original cast themselves.

Lelouch of the Re;surrection takes place two years after the Zero Requiem finale of the series. Goro Taniguchi reprised his role as director with most of his key staff from the anime series. Leo Ieiri performed the movie’s opening song “In This World” and ending song “Revive” was performed by Unione.

Other guests at Anime NYC include Dr. Stone manga creators Riichirou Inagaki and Boichi, Monogatari series illustrator VOFAN, along with guest performers JAM Project, Love Live! Sunshine!!’s Aqours sub-unit Guilty Kiss, BanG Dream!’s Miku Ito, TRUE, and ZAQ. The convention will also be hosting legendary Gundam creator Yoshiyuki Tomino, whose guesting at the Anime NYC is part of the celebrations for the franchise’s 40th anniversary, as well as popular voice actress Rie Kugimiya, who is dubbed as the “Tsundere Queen”. This will be Tomino’s and Kugimiya’s first and only US appearance.

Anime NYC will be held from November 15 to 17 at the Javits Center in Midtown Manhattan.

Very deserving people. I really like the writer Ichiro Okuchi. He is incredibly talented. I tried to write scripts and essays but I have big problems with grammar and speed. Therefore, I turned for business assignment help https://www.brillassignment.co.uk/business-assignment-writing/ to write my assignments at the university. Specialists helped me correct the text and I was able to pass all the work to the teacher on time.
