I am planing to watch _R1_ , _R2_ again with _Akito the Exiled_ but will be
joined by a person who have no idea about _Code Geass_ before.

I know _Akito the Exiled_ take place between R1 and R2 [from the similar
question](https://anime.stackexchange.com/questions/6524/where-does-code-
geass-boukoku-no-akito-fall-in-the-story-line) but I have no idea how much
they are related to each other in details.

So what is the best order to watch _R1_ , _R2_ and _Akito the Exiled_ without
getting anything spoiled in advance?

In which order R1, R2 and Akito the Exiled need to be watched?


Watch R1, R2 then Akito of the Exiled. I think Akito of the Exiled was created
for alternative story. You don't have to watch it. If you don't watch Akito of
the Exiled nothing will change.

Story of R1 and R2 isn't affected by Akito the Exiled enough to be considered
a spoiler of any sort.

AtE is an Alternate/Side-story and thus you can watch it whenever you want,
though I'd advise to watch in the release order (and not just for Code-Geass,
but almost every series out there) because that's how they are made and that's
how you're supposed to be watching it.

Start with R1 then R2 and later Exile of Akito.

In the code geass Universe, while Japan kept up some rebellions against
Britannia, Europe was also in constant war with them. Exile of Akito is all
about the wars in Europe, and in the time period between R1 and R2.

Chronologically Akito the Exiled takes place between season 1 and 2, but it's
better to first finish season 2 before watching Akito because you don't want
to interrupt the flow of the story of the main series.
