The official website for the Code Geass: Akito the Exiled anime project unveiled the trailer for the third episode on Friday. The video features the anime's opening theme song, "More Than Words" by voice actress and singer Maaya Sakamoto.





Suzaku: Year 2017 in the Imperial Calendar. The Holy Britannia Empire invaded the European Union...

Text: The trap of a genius strategist

Klaus: I heard that they joined forces with an officer from Britannia...

Layla: It was a special, silver-colored nightmare.

Shin: Akito...

Akito: ...Brother...

Text: A fated reunion

Lelouch: The emperor only wants victory.

Old woman: You poor thing... You poor thing... You've been put under a curse, haven't you?

Layla: I was the only one who survived...

Akito: I won't make a slip-up like letting my commander die.

Text: The comrades gained, and the people he wants to protect

Yukiya: It's OK.

Girl: I sure would like to go with everyone to Japan.

Ashley: Is that what you say to me, the head of the knights!?

Suzaku: The knights...!

Shin: To the west is the European Union! To the east is the empire of Britannia! In order to survive, we must fight!

Text: And an enemy who reveals his true colors

Text: At this late point in time, what can be protected?

Lelouch: And so, the show begins.

Andrea: You scum...

Klaus: It would be best if we think that the enemy has already found out about our movements...

Old woman: You met the witch of the woods long ago, didn't you?

C.C.: Do you want to live?

Suzaku: Die!

Man: You're the same as me.

Lelouch: We are the fleet of the war to free the world.

Akito: I feel like something bad is definitely going to happen...

Layla: I want the power to live on my own.

Text: He becomes strong because he wants to protect

Akito: I'm fine on my own.

Ashley: Don't you screw with me!

Text: He becomes strong in order to protect

Sophie: Is that... a white demon!?

Shin: This is the world you wanted.

Suzaku: That's why-!

Akito: That's why I...

Layla: Akito...

Text & Suzaku: Are there still things left to him that he can protect?

Akito: That's why... I will kill him...
