Code Geass: Rozé of the Recapture was originally subtitled Z of the Recapture. Comic Natalie reported that the title was changed in light of world affairs (the “Z” symbol was used by Russia during its invasion of Ukraine).
The Code Geass franchise began with Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion, which aired from 2006 to 2008 for two seasons. After the end of the original series, the franchise inspired several OVAs, a recap film series with different continuity, a sequel to the recaps titled Code Geass Lelouch of the Re;surrection, and the Code Geass: Akito the Exiled spin-off series. The franchise has also inspired numerous light novels, manga, and video games.

The two join forces with a Japanese resistance force to square off against Neo Britannica and free Sakuya Sumeragi — the captive daughter of Hokkaido’s murdered leader.
