    I'm going to ignore the posts that attack me as a new poster, mostly because I ended up ranting, which would detract from the thread.

    Not exactly. As Diethard and co watched the execution/duel, Diethard ordered Sayoko to execute the plan they'd prepared over the past year while in the Chinese Union/Federation. Being in Chinese soil, Lelouch would be able to establish contact with Diethard more easily, and if not, can geass if he has to. In addition, he has Rolos' Vincent frame, and in conjunction with the Guren Nishiki, should be more than enough to cause distractions among the Britannian army for him to sneak out and create plans to help everyone escape from the outside. After all, he IS under surveillance and has to get out somehow, before his cover at the theatre is blown.

    Lelouch plans extremely well, but when the plans go awry due to an unexpected factor (such as against Cornelia when she first arrived, V.V. taking Nunnally, not factoring in Lancelot appearing several times), he usually has to rely on someone else to get himself out of trouble. He's good at forcing his opponents' to play on his terms, but usually can't get out of a situation if they introduce an element he can't control. And the next episode introduces the Knights of Rounds into the school, something he probably won't be able to control.

    Or you could always post an intro like everybody else.

    As for your post, I agree somewhat about Lelouch not being able to control foreign elements. However, he usually makes it out okay. Part of being a good leader is surrounding yourself with useful people who can get you out of situations where things go awry, and Lelouch is excellent at gathering loyal and useful followers.

    You know the old saying, strategy is just a plan to try to hold things together when they go apeshit. (or something like that, I was never any good with quotes.)

    Besides that, Lelouch has his own personal spy in on the Brit army, as well as his geass, I'm sure he'll manage.

    So the spoiler circulating about Nunnally is true after all. Lelouch just got owned.

    Also: V-Viletta-sensei? :whipped:

    Very nice, thanks. I noticed that it wasn't on animefuel or surfthechannel yet.

    Best to direct download anyway, you get higher quality and to keep it on your HDD.

    True, this will be the best quality Code Geass episode that I have ever seen. Problem is that when I reached 78%, my download speed dropped to 9.4 KB/sec. It was at 120. Oh well, it will be worth the wait.

    Stream sub

    Edit: Post above me got it.

    Damn, Lelouch is really in a tight situation. I'm really looking forward to how he gets out of it. I don't want to spoil anything, so I'll comment more when more people watch it. Also, am I the only one who thinks that Suzaku is not a bad character when we know that it makes Lelouch have to be a more bad-ass character?

    And on another random thought, anyone ever consider making a Lelouch!Harry fic? I mean this is DLP and that kinda of Harry would be awesome!

    And extremely OOC. There are only so many ways you can change and shape Harry's Character in any fic, and i just don't see any situation in which HP could become like Lelouch, just not possible.

    It was just a random thought anyway, no real loss. Anyway, its not like we haven't seen totally out of there crossovers and fusion fics.

    Back on topic. Can I assume that the Order of the Black Knights will be seriously thrown around by the Knights of Round and etc in the upcoming battle? And I have no need to guess how Lelouch will respond to the situation between him and Nunnally. But we could be thrown a curve ball, stuff like this makes me want the next episode that much faster.

    After seeing this episode, it's certain now. I can't wait for Suzaku to get his ass handed to him. Bastard fucking deserves it.

    Also, I hope I'm not the only one who thinks that later on in the series Lelouch is going to regret using his Geass on Darlton's kid (the guy Lelouch had fire at Rolo).

    The episode was one big fan-service. But nothing important happened (except the phone call at the end).

    Well - Suzaku is even bigger dick that he was at the end of R1. I hope Lelouch will kill him. Quickly and efficiently - without the usual speech or hesitation (like Shinji in EVA).

    Lamperouge Brothers ownage of Villetta was beautiful.
    Villetta-sensei, happy birthday. :devil:

    Lelouch should learn that he have to give a suicide instruction to geassed people after they perform their tasks. Just like that guard in control room in episode 4.

    Theres a reason he had those people live, it's the same exact reason he took the shot for Rolo instead of letting him die.

    He needed the situation to appear as NORMAL as possible. If the geassed sniper had died, Rolo would have known, Lelouch's plan would have fallen apart. If Rolo had died from the sniper, Lelouch would have been revealed and thus Nunally would be in danger. (Or so Lelouch thought anyway.)

    He's playing the game to keep the only one he really cares for safe, a suicide command without the proper thought would do nothing but upset his plans, reveal him early, and basically get him and others like him killed.

    Besides, I like Suzaku much better this season. He may be a two-timing backstapping asshole, but at least he's not a pussy-whipped bitch.

    OOC? Well, what about Denarian Harry or Slytherin or Thoughtful Harry? Basically the stuff that makes Independent Fics awesome. JK's Harry is retarded and really can't think for himself. To make Harry more like Lelouch, it would basically be a really well done version of Slytherin!Harry.

    Do new episodes come on every sunday? Should I visit 4chan to get the latest episodes? I want to have the subbed episodes as soon as they come out.

    Neren, your best bet is to just scour Eclipse and GG's websites every Sunday. Either that, or wait until someone here reports that a new one is out (since I don't doubt for a second that other people scour said websites).
