Well, it does

Look at that good stuff

Oh, it is. Code Geass is a ridiculous show with a plot that doesn't make sense and is also incredibly stupid to boot.
The one redeeming thing you can say is that people put effort on it, which is more than you can say about things like the current Isekai shovelware wave. Or maybe is just the VAs carrying the show.
Absolutely entertaining trash fire
Doesn't stand up to a moment of examination, doesn't matter because the melodrama never stops

Code Geass is, if nothing else, fairly originally stupid
but holy shit the ending still makes my eyes a good bit moist with how stunning and intense the whole sequence is
Gotta do some reports.
What does this company do?
Business.
Have you got these reports done? I'm burning out from having to do these business reports for the business company company business.
Remember most english subtitles are cleaned up, and Japanese is very straightforward and to the point, with most context being implied by the speaker and worked out by the listener. In a geas case, that could easily backfire.
edit: Also I don't remember the scene clearly but I really wouldn't be surprised if his geas suddenly went off visually at the same time as he says those exact words, in which case everything said before it is irrelevant. "Kill the japanese" is what gets immediately imprinted.
Also also a protagonist suddenly getting fucked over to raise the stakes is the most basic up the ante 101 in story writing ever and I don't fully get why that's being declared as bad. You never had something come out of nowhere in your own life? It's his fault: he shouldn't have acted like he had full control over a thing he doesn't fully understand. It's a cataclysm that comes about as result of the heroes own hubris. That's as classical as it gets.
Anime written for the point of view of kids and teenagers (read: most of them) have an excuse. But anime with an adult cast should know better. Is not a big deal overall, but it doesn't help with suspension of disbelief. Animes that make what the company does the center of the show, like New Game+, are fine and all, but touches like Kobayashi-san, that makes a point on showing Kobayashi as this overworked developer struggling to hit deadlines, really do help.
It's also the much needed catalyst for
Well, guess motherfucking what? Life, especially modern life, is too short to properly understand everything you need to use. Your computer, for example. Your car, for another. Your body. You have to use, manipulate, and interact with poorly-understood systems.
And since Code Geass doesn't actually show safe practices when dealing with under-understood systems, (they just showed us Lelouch's attempts to understand his Geass by experimenting independently and asking for clarifications from CC, which gave him a false sense of understanding, which backfired tragically) the safe assumption is that the writers didn't intend, or know how, to teach safe practices. Which makes the Code Geass design team guilty of dissuading us from doing something we cannot avoid, thus the alert audience member must discard the lesson CG is teaching, which makes watching it a waste of time.

Well, I'm about as confused as Loulou is.
Nobody else was prepared for the finale of Akibaranger! I just laughed, and laughed, and laughed...
What's confusing about it? It's just Lelouch antics with his sibling, nothing strange about that
Thunderbolt Fantasy S1, and specifically the final two episodes, are definitely the high point of that series for me, but seasons 2 and 3 are still fun.
The S1 finale is just so good though, love everything about it.
