The great Mecha series Code Geass became quite viral after a user on the Twitter/X platform named @DasTier92 shared a video with the following description “It destroys me how outside of Japan the Code Geass sequels and spin-offs were largely ignored by the community until they put in a pink gyaru with a great personality”. And the fact is that the possibility of a girl with these characteristics being part of the cast was something that generated all kinds of reactions from fans of the series, in many cases negatively.
Code Geass goes viral after having a character with great attributes
Many users who are fans of the franchise agree with this tweet, saying that the animation studio knows that this type of characters with big attributes attract more attention from viewers, so the bigger the personality the more money it generates. And that’s how Code Geass: Rozé of the Recapture quickly became a trend.
The character in question is the exuberant Catherine, which from her first moments on screen managed to capture all the attention of the public that has praised her great attributes. The Code Geass character is quite striking and manages to stand out from the rest, from her tight-fitting outfit to her dark skin and long pink hair, she has managed to captivate us.
The character exudes absolute confidence, is perceived as brave and very beautiful, qualities that are striking in a character and that anyone would love. There are other series that like Code Geass have achieved general stir thanks to a female character with great attributes, this may be for different reasons, then we share some of them.
The first one, which we are sure the animation studio implemented, is the “visual appeal” or “marketing” of the series, where the designs of the female characters have great physical attributes and this is obviously intended to visually capture the attention of the audience. Having a character stand out visually can be an effective way to attract viewers, eye-catching covers and promotional materials can increase visibility and interest in the series, in this case, a new aspect of Code Geass.
Another aspect that could have an influence is “audience preferences”, nowadays and with anime gaining more and more ground around the world as an entertainment medium, many of these consumers are young fans who respond very positively to attractive female characters. Also, when it comes to merchandising, who doesn’t want to have a cute waifu on their shelf?
Figures, posters, clothing and other products based on anime characters tend to sell more than well these days, providing an additional source of revenue for anime creators and producers. So the use of female characters with great attributes in anime is due to a combination of marketing strategies and demographic preferences, plus it gets fans talking about the character and has proven to be a successful formula for attracting and keeping a sizeable audience, right now everyone is talking about Code Geass and its waifu.
Although Code Geass is currently trending for a character with enormous attributes, don’t be confused because this series has much more to offer. Being already a cultural reference in the anime industry and inspiring thousands of creators around the world to make their works, such is the case of Hajime Isayama and the now well known series of Shingeki no Kyojin.
If you don’t know much about Code Geass let me tell you that Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion, is an anime series that has a huge following due to its complex plot, intriguing characters and surprising plot twists. This series has left a significant mark on the anime world for its intriguing mix of action, drama, strategy and moral dilemmas, capturing the imagination of viewers around the world.
