I only saw Code Geass last year and despite its writing flaws, some of which should be noted were due to executive issues, I found it to be an overall great series. Nick is right about the early plot conveniences and there's even a pretty infamous one near the end of the first season. The anon's right too about a plot needing an element of coincidence for the start - sometimes people just need to be in a certain place at a certain time or be related to someone for a story to happen. I'd say that we as readers give authors a certain amount of leeway when it comes to getting a story started. People still tend to like Code Geass on the whole and consider it to be a unique, well-crafted and thought-provoking series, none of which I would ever call Fairy Tail.
