i even had avatar of the logo :)

 

The opening scene has become Lord Genome's past story. Kid Lord Genome indeed looks like Nia

-The Chouginga Razengan that appears in the past story

-The first half is basically the same as the TV version. Certain places were skipped.

-Episodes 4-6 are shown as sort of a reminiscence of meeting the Black Siblings, Rossiu, Gimmy, and Darry

-Yoko has original scenes added into places such as staying up all night studying, and a scene taking from the footage of the early OP

 

-To make up for there not being much of episodes 9-10, Simon's broken state is given a stronger impression and Nia’s loveliness is completely reanimated to make her look wiser, more innocent, more kind, and more… well, lovely

-Nia introduces herself to the Dai-Gurren-dan on her own as the "Helix King's First Princess Nia"

-After which Simon gives Nia a horrible glare (Nia goes to apologizes to him, and asks him to kill her if he truly hates her that much, he ends up crying on her chest)

 

-Adiane, Guame, and Cytomander all attack together

-Nia's strength is emphasized, not only when dealing with Simon and Yoko but also she stands against the entire army all by herself and demands an audience with Guame

-Viral rides a new mecha called "Daiganzandu". It's a Enkidu-like Daiganzan.

-Simon climbs up Shuzack to rescue Nia

-Starting with King Kittan DX, all of the second string Gunmen pilots are given a stronger impression

-Yoko VS Adiane

-The Four Generals' battleships combine. Viral takes Thymilph's place.

-To fight against them, Simon and Nia use, with the help of the entire Dai-Gurren-Dan, "Giga Drill Break Special" and crush the Four Generals

-Yoko rides a Gunmen named Yoko M Tank for a little while. It's a pink Dayakkaiser.

-Nia stands in front of Kamina's grave, talks to him about Simon. It’s probably the best new scene of the movie, the 2channer that wrote this review was crying.

-Movie ends with Teppelin being revealed as a giant Ganmen

Code Geass is getting so weird each time an episode passes.

I hope they make everything clear in the last episode

Ah man, I just had a FullMetalAlchemist binge over the last few days and read all of the manga online. Now I've got as far as they've got and I have to wait for it to be translated and scanned etc. ARGH! I can't cope, I've become obsessed. I loved the anime but the manga is unreal, it's awesome

Yeh, it's a shame it takes so long for the next books to come out (I buy the books which are a collection of 4 chapters, so it takes ages to come out). :/

Okay so I took a bit of a break from anime but now I'm back and pumped for more animated goodness.

 

I started watching Xam'd this morning the first two episodes and was immediately hooked it has this eureka 7 vibe about it (I know Bones) while being completely different and the animation style is superb. :grin:

 

The story is excellent thsu far and takes a slightly different turn than I was expecting from this type of anime. I'm impressed.

 

Though I took a break from anime I've still been reading the manga and The Gurren Lagann manga recommended to me by Stefkov is great stuff. :D
