CØDE:BREAKER General Discussion

From the Director that brought you Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood comes CØDE:BREAKER

Watch the Simulcast Each week HERE

What the Anime is about:

Riding the bus one day, Sakurakouji Sakura looks out the window to see people being burned alive with a blue fire and a boy her age who's unharmed and standing over the people.

She comes back to the site the next day and there are no corpses or evidence of any kind of murder, just a small fire. She then goes to class to find there's a new transfer student, Oogami Rei, who looks exactly like the boy she saw before and wears a black glove only on his left hand.

Oogami is a Code Breaker, one who "does not exist". He is a seemingly cold-blooded killer who follows the principle of "an eye for an eye", to "use evil against evil". Convinced that killing is not right, Sakurakouji sets out to stop him and penetrate his icy heart.

Re: CØDE:BREAKER General Discussion

I agree. This anime is pretty interesting so far. I must say though, Ogami is a very confusing person to me so far. I don't really understand him or his motivations. He doesn't seem cold, just detatched. Though it does make me want to watch even more. smile

I like the manga more, the anime I notice most of it fell in the fillers already.

This another fall anime that has gotten better as it goes along.It is serious but with humor too. Also Sakura is amazing with her ability to stop the Code Breakers.

Star Star Star OMG Exclamation Mark This anime gets to you at such an emotional level. My heart skips a beat at everything that is revealed. II was on the verge of tears twice and this is only the 5th episode crying . I might even like this anime more than Black Butler...but I still love Sebastian yell Exclamation Mark Definitely one of my top favorite anime and I'm always looking forward to watching the next episode.I love the story line and want to know more about each character. This anime does a great job of just showing the evil and corruption of the world and fights evil with 'evil." Each episode makes you look at the world in a different way. I cant believe after what Sakura has seen that she still holds true to her values. I'm anticipating when she will break, but I do admire her character. I've finally found an anime worth waiting fo dumb r...I'm not one to watch new episodes when they come out, I usually wait for the season to finish and then I can just burn through the anime and move onto the next one. Unfortunately I cant do that for this anime, but it is definitely worth the wait Exclamation Mark Words cannot explain my obsession with this anime Exclamation Mark wink I love everything about it Exclamation Mark wink

Re: CØDE:BREAKER General Discussion

For me, this anime is doing well so far. 7 out of 10 is my score.

But I'm beginning to think that there's some similarities with the anime titles ieKKei and Chuuninbyou.

With ieKKei:

  • K's catgirl calls herself "Cat." In C:B, Sakura doesn't give names to animals. Hence, the dog's "Dog."
  • K's yaShiro sneaked around in a dog suit. C:B's Yuuki glomps someone in a cat suit.
  • The use of flames as a weapon.

With Chuuninbyou, it's more along the line of that show being the "silly side" to Code: Breaker's "serious side." One KyotoAnimu yelling how "only 8th-graders believe in that crap;" then following up with a rimshot [and laughter from the audience].

My issue against KyotoAnimu refusing to grow up because of their paying audience's refusal to grow up aside; I'm enjoying C:B, ieKKei, and Zetsuen's Tempest.

AAMOF, THIS is how "Manime" should be: anime about young guys who aren't pathetic pansy herbivores yet don't need bulging muscles (ala Dragonball Z) to do what needs to be done. This had been my decades-long argument as to why I can't watch, and support the industry of, animu like everybody else. Hopefully FUNi won't form a yellow streak along their collective back (like they did with Campanella's Blessing and Betrayal Knows My Name) over this title and give this show an English-dubbed BD/DVD release.

That's because anime tend to be unoriginal are rely on tropes and cliches instead of creating something truly original. Flames are well-used in fantasy anime. You could say the same about Slayers and Lina Inverse's Fireball spell.

I also want for an animu as fanservicy as Rosaria+Vampire but where the shounen herein DOESN'T SUCK @ LIFE and get beaten by women. But we can't have everything we want, right? Companies like FUNi, along with most noteably Aniplex, can't make more money and rise up from their "niche market" mentality. But yeah. True originality.

I'm for the animu industry having SPINE and [BRAVERY] before we "get to that bridge." wink

Try The Ambition of Oda Nobuna from the summer season. Okay, it didn't have quite as much fanservice as Rosario.
