arashi Posted December 1, 2011 Report Share Posted December 1, 2011 I think both series are intriguing. They both have complex lead characters and there's a lot of twists and turns in each story. It's really hard to pick which one is better...but I'm going to go with Code Geass. Only because I like the ending to that better than the ending to Death Note. I felt like the ending to CG wasn't rushed and really wrapped up the story. But the ending to Death Note just kind of happened, and it was pretty predictable.Still, both are great series!---------- Post added at 08:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:27 PM ----------"Death Note" was incredible up until L's death. After that, the story's pace/plot just seemed to decrease. The whole L vs. Light dynamic seemed to be at the heart of "Death Note".I completely agree. The "battle" between Near and Light just wasn't as intriguing as Light vs L. The switch up of the character mid-way through the series was definitely a downer and the story got really predictable then, imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thrall6000 Posted December 1, 2011 Report Share Posted December 1, 2011 Never mind which was more twisted or which was more intelligent, CG is the most enjoyable anime I've ever seen, with the possible exception of Gundam 00. I have no doubt Death Note was better thought out, but CG was much more enjoyable and when I consider how DN ended I cant' help but pick CG.

FireWarrior Posted December 1, 2011 Report Share Posted December 1, 2011 Can't decide for now since I have just started Code Geass. I really like Death Note though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guitar23 Posted December 1, 2011 Report Share Posted December 1, 2011 I prefer Death Note, though I enjoyed Code Geass. Death Note was just... I don't know, but Light's plans were just brilliant. Code Geass seemed to me like they weren't fully prepared for this type of show: as it went on, Lelouch's plans just seemed to make less and less sense.

Jessiibear Posted December 1, 2011 Report Share Posted December 1, 2011 Death Note fer sure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLostFool Posted December 1, 2011 Report Share Posted December 1, 2011 I prefer Code Geass. For one I didn't like the ending nor most of the characters of Death Note, though thats not to say that I didn't find the series enjoyable. In my opinion Code Geass had the more epic story as well as in my view the better animation. Not to mention I enjoyed the actual plot far more in Code Geass. And I feel Lelouch was actually smarter than L and Light, the fact that he remained alive I feel says a lot. But thats my opinion, to each their own I suppose.

shadow007 Posted December 1, 2011 Report Share Posted December 1, 2011 Its difficult to answer, however i liked the ending in Code Geass much much better than that of Deathnote . . so i guess for me Code Geass is a better anime Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poopsocks Posted December 1, 2011 Report Share Posted December 1, 2011 Code Geass for sure. After a while, the grittiness from Death Note started to wear off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kashem2 Posted December 1, 2011 Report Share Posted December 1, 2011 i liked Code Geass more over all cuz death note like half way through it just kinda died down. but if were counting the live action ver. of death note then i think there on par with one another.

Cold_void344 Posted December 20, 2011 Report Share Posted December 20, 2011 Ill have to go with Code Geass,It is not because I have nothing against death note, quite to the contrary I loved it but Code Geass is my favourite anime, I don't know why but after watching it through maybe 7-8 times im still not sick of it.I think its a mixture of the storyline + Mecha's + Kallen xD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

franko446 Posted November 5, 2012 Report Share Posted November 5, 2012 (edited) To me code geass it seemed that little bit longer getting into, i loved death note however code geass story was great and did not differ at all after i started to get into it, death note varied story lines for me just near the end, although i loved the characters in death note i loved code geass also for me there pretty much comparable.

Dazzep Posted November 16, 2012 Report Share Posted November 16, 2012 I'd have to say Death Note. Just like the poster said, they are really similar in some ways, but I always liked more the serious and dark story of Death Note. Maybe not so many will agree with this, but I liked the ending, it just had to happen, there was no other way.The way both Light and L plan things out and how it ets more complex is something that totally sucked me into it.After all L is in my signature right? lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyle_Dimetri Posted November 17, 2012 Report Share Posted November 17, 2012 Any anime that has me on the edge of my seat, is just as intense as shootouts, not filled with cliched characters and has a storyline and characters that are so freaking awesome that it gives my mind an orgasm wins my vote any day. DEATH NOTE!!!!!!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pra7ul Posted November 18, 2012 Report Share Posted November 18, 2012 'Death Note' obviously is the best,as for 'Code Geass', it was OK too but, not as good as Death Note. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
