The series is set after Japan’s conquest by the Holy Britannian Empire on August 10, 2010 a.t.b., with their powerful new robot weapons, the
Knightmare Frames, stripping Japan and its citizens of all rights and freedoms and renaming the country Area 11. The titular Lelouch vi Britannia is an intellectual Britannian prince who was sent as hostage, along with his sister Nunnally, by his father, Emperor Charles di Britannia, after his mother was murdered, and has vowed to destroy Britannia. He gains an ability through the mysterious power of the
Geass, becoming the leader of the resistance movement to fulfill his two wishes: to seek revenge for his mother and to construct a world in which his beloved sister Nunnally can live happily.
Lelouch Lamperouge
The main character, Lelouch is the handsome and intelligent son of the Emperor of Britannia, Charles zi Britannia, and the late Imperial Consort Marianne vi Britannia as well as the Eleventh Prince of the Holy Britannian Empire. After the assassination of his mother and the crippling of his sister, Nunnally, he confronted his father over his apparent lack of concern. Offended by his impudence, the Emperor exiled them both to Japan. In Japan, Lelouch spent his early days with his sister at the Kururugi Shrine and met Suzaku Kururugi, whom he befriended after some initial animosity
Suzaku Kururugi
Lelouch’s childhood friend and son of Japan’s last prime minister, Genbu Kururugi. Suzaku is in the service of the Britannia Army as a soldier and is chosen to test an experimental new model of Knightmare Frame, the Lancelot. Throughout the series, Suzaku shows a belief that achieving results by wrong or illegal methods is meaningless, setting up a rivalry with Zero. Suzaku also became Lelouch’s classmate
- C.C.
- A mysterious, immortal, green-haired girl who establishes a contract with Lelouch on the condition that he grant her one wish, to die. She passively oversees Lelouch’s missions and occasionally helps them succeed to ensure he does not die. Being Immortal C-2 claims she abandoned her humanity long ago. C.C. is not her real name; she involuntarily reveals her real name to Lelouch in her sleep, but it is muted so the viewer cannot hear it.
- Kallen Stadtfeld
- A red haired Britannian-Japanese who believes herself to be a Japanese person at heart and prefers her birth name, Kallen Kouzuki, over that of her father’s prestigious family. She maintains the image of a frail, outstanding student at Ashford Academy, all the while being a member of the Japanese resistance movement and is Zero’s most devoted follower. Kallen joined the resistance to fulfill the dream her brother had before he passed away.
- Nunnally Lamperouge
- Lelouch’s younger sister, who was blinded and crippled via Emperor Charles Geass power. Lelouch originally got involved with the war because he wanted to create a gentler world for Nunnally. However in Nunnally’s own words just living with Lelouch would have been enough for her.
- Rolo Lamperouge
- Rolo Lamperouge is introduced in the second season as an assassin posing as Lelouch’s brother, placed there to observe Lelouch following his memory rewrite at the end of the first season. Rolo pilots the Vincent Prototype, and possesses a Geass power in his right eye that allows him to temporarily freeze the subjective experience of time for all persons within a given range. Each time Rolo uses this power, his heart skips a beat when it is activated
