If you say that this animation is good, have you not seen a few good animations?

There are various flaws in the script of this animation. For example, in order to liberate Japan, the rebels have to invade other countries (the Chinese Federation). For example, Lelouch's deception on campus is simply deception to create a plot, too far-fetched, etc. etc. And this film is full of Japanese Bushido spirit, and a little idea of ​​East Asia co-prosperity, which is a kind of rise of Japanese Nazism. I can't help but wonder if they have any subtext to say?
In terms of the style of painting, I want to clamp a knife man, which is divorced from the actual portrait proportions and gorgeous European-style dresses, but from the perspective of the whole animation, the proportions of characters in some places are out of balance, which is obviously a performance of rushing the construction period.
In short, it is not recommended for Chinese audiences under the age of 20 to watch. If your thinking is not mature, don't be influenced by this nationalistic animation in Japan.
