Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion R2
In 2017 a.t.b. the Holy Britannian Empire has reign over half of the world. Each country they conquer is stripped of their culture, their freedom, and even their name. A beacon of hope for the people came in the form of a mysterious masked rebel named Zero and his army of Black Knights. Behind the mask is Lelouch Lamperouge, once a prince of the Britannian Empire who is hell-bent on revenge for his mother’s death and protecting his younger sister, Nunnally.
He is given a gift, a power known as Geass that allows him to control the mind of anyone he looks at. It is with his Geass that his plan to bring a world worthy of his sister is close to fruition; until he faces off with knight of Britannia and his former best friend, Suzaku Kururugi. A year later, Zero is declared dead and Britannia continues its reign under this belief. The Black Knights still fight, but their numbers are severely reduced. Without Zero, hope for Japan is no more.

The Disastrous Life of Saiki K. Season 2

After all, you wouldn’t want to hear the weird things people think or all the spoilers they know! And surprise parties? Forget about ’em.
No, this psychic genius is all about keeping a low profile. But high school isn’t about to let that happen. His quirky classmates and embarrassing parents just can’t leave him alone! He’s got the world at his fingertips, but the one thing he’ll never get…is a break.
