Give Code Geass some time, it took me a little while to get into it too, just because of the Clamp character designs, the somewhat oddly nationalistic and possibly slightly anti-western plot and signs of them pulling some of the same shit they did with Gundam Seed, but by the end of the show it'd gotten to be one of my favorites. I don't know what exactly irritates you about it, but on the whole the series is generally thought of as like 60% Death Note and 40% Gundam. The plot has some great twists to it (oh my god there is this one episode right towards the end holy shit you wouldn't believe it) and is for the most part really well written.

I did mention that I've never seen Gundam-- it was on the list but Nate went away before we got around to it. So obviously it's going to be difficult for me to appreciate a critique of something I haven't seen ( ... )

psht, you're just jealous. But I do agree... the continuation of the series after Light defeats L is all really just anticlimax as denouement.
