The Holy Britannian Empire exerts its dominance through military might, and the once proud nation of Japan falls victim to its ruthless expansionism. Following the devastating Second Pacific War in 2010, Japan is reduced to rubble and scornfully renamed Area 11. Within this oppressed land, a young student named Lelouch Lamperouge harbors a deep-seated hatred for Britannia and vows to liberate Japan from its oppressive grip. Fueled by vengeance, he devises a daring rebellion to overthrow the Empire and erase its stain from the world. Lelouch's path to revolution takes an unexpected turn when he encounters the enigmatic woman C.C., who bestows upon him the powerful Geass - a supernatural ability that bends others to his will. Empowered with this formidable gift, Lelouch assumes the mantle of Zero, a symbol of hope for the downtrodden and a harbinger of justice against Britannia. As Zero, Lelouch embarks on a quest to not only reclaim Japan's lost glory but also to mete out divine retribution upon the Empire that has brought so much suffering. With his Geass as his weapon and his indomitable will as his guide, Lelouch stands as a beacon of hope in a world shrouded in darkness.
