{{nihongo|''Code Geass: Nightmare of Nunnally''|コードギアス ナイトメア・オブ・ナナリー|Kōdo Giasu Naitomea Obu Nanarī}}, focused on Lelouch's sister Nunnally Lamperouge, was serialized in ''[[Comp Ace]]'' and written by Tomomasa Takuma.<ref name="book" /> When Lelouch goes missing in the incident at Shinjuku Ghetto, Nunnally encounters an entity called Nemo, which restores her health and grants her the ability to summon the Knightmare Frame Mark Nemo.

The most recent manga adaptation, {{nihongo|''Code Geass: Tales of an Alternate Shogunate''| 幕末異聞録 コードギアス 反逆のルルーシュ|Bakumatsu Ibun Roku Kōdo Giasu Hangyaku no Rurūshu}}, was serialized in [[Kerokero Ace]]. It is set in an alternate history in 1853 with new characters. Britannia's [[Black Ships]] appear in the harbor of Uraga. Some years later, {{nihongo|Lelouch Lamperouge|ルルーシュ・ランペルージ}} — brother to a young blind girl named {{nihongo|Nunnally|ナナリー}} — is the commander of the military counterinsurgence brigade known as the [[Shinsengumi]], formed under the orders of the [[Shogunate]] to fight the {{nihongo|[[Shishi (organization)|Black Revolutionaries]]|黒の騎士団|Kuro no Kishidan}}, a rebel group led by a mysterious masked individual known as {{nihongo|Rei|零|lit. Zero}}. In fact, these two organizations are one and the same, and they seek to combat in influences of Britannia. Geass is the ability to call upon and summon the armored entities referred to as {{nihongo|Knightmares|ナイトメア}}; {{nihongo|Lancelot|ランスロット}} is one such Knightmare.

Three of the manga series have been licensed for an [[English language]] release in North America by [[Bandai Entertainment]].<ref name="NYAF" />
