One of several exciting announcements made over the past couple of days in the world of anime and manga is a brand-new Code Geass anime project set to make its arrival in Spring 2024. A new key visual as well as the first trailer of Code Geass: Rozé of the Recapture were revealed on Monday at a special event.

The series forms part of the Code Geass Next 10Years Project, which is a plan for the future of the Code Geass franchise first revealed by series producer Kojiro Taniguchi in 2019. The 10Years Project was kicked off with the Lelouch of the Re;surrection film which hit US theatres in May 2019.

The trailer revealed the actors who'll play the protagonist duo, the opening theme, as well as a number of staff at animation studio Sunrise who will be working on Code Geass: Rozé of the Recapture. The upcoming project is set to be a four-part theatrical release, the first of which is slated to premiere in May 2024, during the Spring anime season.

Initially announced as Code Geass: Z of the Recapture back in 2020, the upcoming project is set in the Code Geass universe created by Goro Taniguchi and Ichiro Okouki, and follows two protagonists, Rozé and Ash, voiced by Kohei Amasaki (Haruo Yaguchi, Hi Score Girl) and Makoto Furukawa (Kencho, Zom 100: Bucket List of the Dead) respectively. When it was first announced, Z of the Recapture was introduced as an upcoming TV anime that continued from where Lelouch of the Re;surrection left off.
