Overall :
This is a must watch for Mecha fans and Death Note fans (Or similar Animes / Mangas ) ...Well,I pretty much written up everything in the story section so take a quick peek there if your able to.

Humor :
There ARE occasional humor content despite it's slightly disturbing and dark atmosphere.For example,in one of the episodes,the cat's head became stuck in Zero's helmet and Lelouch literally ran across the school compounds to catch it. (This just shows how slow he is in running...he can't even catch a cat! ) Unfortunately,the humor content involved are mainly restricted to episodes that are clearly used to relieve the viewers from the dark atmosphere of the Anime.

Romance :
One way or the other,I have to say...this Anime fails in the romance category,big time.
