In the first episode of Code Geass season 2, titled "The Day the Devil Wakened," we find ourselves back in the alternate world where the Empire of Britannia rules over Japan, now known as Area 11.

The episode opens with a glimpse of the past, where our protagonist Lelouch is seen kneeling over the dead body of his friend, Shirley. It then cuts to the present, with Lelouch attending school as usual. However, things are different now. His memories of his time as a rebel leader and his alter ego Zero have been erased, and he is once again a regular high school student under the name Lelouch Lamperouge.

Meanwhile, his former ally and love interest, Kallen, is now part of a terrorist organization called the Order of the Black Knights, which aims to overthrow the Britannian Empire. They are planning an attack on Area 11, targeting a Britannian weapons factory. Kallen is conflicted about her past actions with Zero and her loyalty to the Black Knights.

Lelouch's peaceful life is disrupted when his friend Rolo appears, claiming to be his little brother. Rolo is part of a secretive organization called the Geass Directorate, which is searching for C.C., the immortal girl who gave Lelouch his Geass power. The Geass Directorate believes that C.C. is hiding somewhere in Japan and is willing to do whatever it takes to find her. They threaten Lelouch's friends and family in order to coerce him into helping them.

Meanwhile, a new Femme Fatale character named Rolo Lamperouge, who bears a striking resemblance to Lelouch, has appeared in the Britannian military. She is given the code name Rolo, and her mission is to capture Zero, who is still believed to be at large.

As all these plot threads intertwine, the stage is set for an action-packed season full of political intrigue, high-stakes battles, and complex character relationships. "The Day the Devil Wakened" is an exciting start to the season, setting up numerous mysteries and conflicts that will keep viewers on the edge of their seats.
