Sometimes Johnny Yong Bosch does try to change his voice a little bit for Zero, but oftentimes he does not try. And even when he does try it is obvious it is still the same guy just trying to sound different.
Unless the voice is different enough to instill some doubt, there's still the Clark Kent/Superman problem. Personally I don't think Japanese Lelouch manages to change his voice too well either, but he always tries, and maybe it's enough to instill the minimal level of doubt. Anyway that's why I said Dan Green should have been Lelouch, he would have been awesome with his Yami Yugi vs little Yugi voicework. His little Yugi sounds remotely similar to Johnny Yong Bosch, while his Yami Yugi voice is remotely similar to Japanese Lelouch.
BTW the broadcast of Code Geass on Adult Swim analog cable was all jerky again this week, and it was a weird different kind of pattern-less jerkiness than before. But Death Note for the first time got all jerky too. So I guess now we know these are Cartoon Network problems and not mastering problems.

Porcupine what you see is AS 'speeding up' the show to fit within their time slot

Why did they remove Pizza Hut from the cover of the pizza box?

BladeDragoon, yeah when stations speed up shows to fit within a time slot the effect is jerkiness roughly similar to what I described. But in this case I don't think that is the reason, I think Cartoon Network is just messing up. Why else would Code Geass 1 and 2 be jerky, 3 and 4 be perfect, but 5 be extra jerky again (more jerky than 1 and 2)? And why would Death Note be extra jerky for only last week's episode but not any of the roughly 30 episodes before that? Unless last week's episodes were all coincidentally ultra long or something I don't think that was the reason.
But good observation because the jerkiness effect is indeed similar to the speeding up or slowing down shows effect.

Go back and read page 7 and 8 of this thread.

The reasons are unknown, but I'm sure it had to do with Pizza Hut (USA francise, not the same corporate entity as the Japanese) not wanting its name on a cartoon that doesn't fit their standards, possibly because of (insert idle Censorzilla speculation) |
Have you considered that maybe they didn't want to pay the extra money to continue the product placement? Or maybe the other way around- the U.S. franchise demanded money to let Bandai continue using the images, and they refused to get screwed over like that? |

porcupine the only thing I noticed (barely) was the speed up
I think something might be wrong with your cable provider (this was the first time it seemed sped up to me)

Pizza Hut is actually the Best tasting and most edible delivery-based pizza out of all the chain places we have arround here if you can imagine that.

So....this "Euphemia" chick? All I could think of was Yuffie from Final Fantasy... -.-' Both are annoying as all get-out.
I can see where Suzaku might be annoying to some people now, but he's not getting to me yet. Still think Lelouch is the bigger douche.
FUN FACT: In Japan, Suzaku is known as "Uzaku" for "Uzai"...(annoying)

Well, see, that's the problem. Screw the chain places, Mom & Pop stores are still the place to go for pizza.

You get what you pay for as the saying goes. You want better pizza you've got to pay more for it and go with a sit in resturant or at least a take 'N Bake place. *shrugs*
Anyhow back to Code Geass

The original version of the instance in the last episode looks like this:
...and was fairly obvious I must add. Unless you were distracted by something....else durring that scene.
