That would make sense for Lelouch return.

According to people who have seen the PV for the new anime, Suzaku, Jeremiah, Cornelia and a few other characters are present in said PV. So, the 5 decade thing is squashed already. The question is whether they were visibly older or not. The summaries I've seen for the PV aren't clear with regards to that.
For argument's sake, I expect the time skip to be anywhere between 3-10 yrs, until we get the specified number of years for the time skip that is.

That because they didn't made spin off on alternate universe
The reason why Universal Century Gundam could squeezed off until Unicorn because Original Gundam has open ending for upcoming sequel left people for excitement for unresolved tales of Amuro and Char.
Mainstream Code geass has Lelouch as the face, would be a big challenge for Sunrise to milk those.
I for the one were among people who did not watched Akito because i seen Akito nothing more than a dry squeeze by Sunrise.

Tbh, Akito wasn't all bad. It had a pretty decent start and followup, things started going south from the third OVA imo... And well, the fourth and fifth OVAs were the final nail in the coffin.

He's a bandwagon jumper in the worst possible way and frankly he's a hypocrit. Sure there's some pity for him for the way things worked out with Euphy but that pity was short lived when he pulled the stunt with Nunally

We can't really blame Suzaku for ending up the way he did. They had to abandon the original script for R2, only managing to keep some of the content they intended and rewrite everything else, resulting in that rushed mess of a second season.

Among other things, the subplots involving Cecile's relationship with Suzaku and Suzaku's connection to Geass (ie why he went catatonic at Kaminejima when the elevator thing activated) were basically dropped, and Rolo was added in.
One should note that this is far from the first time that a show's direction has been influenced by executive meddling, hell, Geass R1 had a lot changed because it was originally slated for a prime time slot and moved to late night, and probably wouldn't have been as good as it wound up being if it weren't for that.

If you’re one of those people, well you’re right. Code Geass R2 actually went horribly wrong according to an interview Celiss Galvea did with Taniguchi (The Director of Code Geass and Code Geass R2).
In fact, things went horribly wrong as far back as Season 1. You know it sorta irks me that the already AWESOME anime could’ve been 10 times better. Some of the stuff that Taniguchi mentions would’ve ROCKED.

Unfortunately, the links to the original interview itself are all dead. Can't seem to find a working one. But I have read the article for the interview some years back. 2012 to be exact and it's a shame really. If they had followed through with their original vision, CG would've really been that much better. T_T
