After completing both initial seasons, there are two optional recap OVA episodes you can watch – “Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion Special Edition Black Rebellion” that summarizes season 1. While ” R2 Special Edition: Zero Requiem” does the same for the second season.

A few shorter OVA side stories are next:

– Nunnally in Wonderland (28 mins)

Then move onto the trilogy of compilation recap movies:

1. “Code Geass: Lelouch of the Re;surrection” (2 hrs 11 mins)

3. “Code Geass: Lelouch of the Re;surrection – Glorification” (2 hrs 20 mins)

These films re-edit events from the TV series along with some new footage.
