NEWS: Code Geass: Rozé of the Recapture Anime's 1st Trailer Reveals More Cast, May 10-August 2 Openi

Takahiro Kimura passed away so I guess he must have made designs and they were picked by others?

Kind of unexpected that Disney grabbed the international rights, I don't know if this means that this will get dubbed into multiple languages. The only anime that were released on Disney/Star+ internationally and included dubbed versions were Black Rock Shooter: Dawnfall, Summer Time Rendering, Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War, Tokyo Revengers S2 and Undead Unluck. If this new Code Geass porject gets dubbed it'll be the first CG project dubbed into Spanish. There were rumors that Funimation was going to dub the original Code Geass into Neutral Spanish, but it seems their plans got scrapped when they merged with Crunchyroll

Perhaps this project was in development for quite a while, after all, making an anime takes time. Takahiro could have been involved in the production before his passing, just like how Akira Toriyama was involved in the production of Dragon Ball Daima

I have to imagine it will be dubbed. The fact that a lot of their picks are 2nd seasons or outright sequel shows like Bleach TYBW shows they want pretty proven hits, and Code Geass was huge in its heyday, thanks to being broadcast (in America at least) on Adult Swim before streaming was widespread and the streaming wars mostly killed cable. I'm sure that going "hey new Code Geass dropped" is going to activate people's nostalgia (currently imagining the news activating people with the same animation of a Geass altering a brain) and probably score a few subscribers (or get lapsed subscribers to re-up) that weren't interested in D+ before.

Do we need this? The original show was 2 seasons long and perfectly adequate. Nothing else I’ve seen suggests more anime was needed, especially the awful Re;surrection movie.
