As I said before, V.V. looks here like a retard.

I look at this one and I get the mental image of what Harry should do to Draco, the first chance he gets.

 

Damn right, that would be sweet if Harry did that to Draco. Cornellia didn't even let him finish talking before she threw it. She's such a badass in season 2.

Well V.V. is a 50 (?) year old twin brother of the Emperor of Britannia who looks like a six year old. I'd be a little crazy too, I get stuck as a little kid for my whole life whil my brother has 108 women.

 

Second best... Code Geass episode... ever. Only topped by phase 22/23.

Still I called Lelouch's Geass working again after it has been cancelled. Unfortunatly it doesn't affect the body after death. Then his don't die command could affect You-Know-Who and Lelouch would have to 'put her down'.

Going by the new opening, I predict a Suicide Run for Toudo in the last couple of phases. And that Schneizal and Zero will team up against the Emperor (Kallen/Suzaku's similiar 'wings'). Yet at the same time I get the feeling the Emperor will have noble goals while Schneizal isn't all kittens and roses.

 

Noble goals just like SEELE and Gendo Ikari in Neon Genesis Evangelion? Well, Gendo did what he did for love.

 

I called it way back in season 1... with the island episode and Kallen/Suzaku sharing a moment together. It was just too much like Gundam Seed (which had a similar 'twist').

And now that Orange is Lulu's pet now, there has to be some counterbalance - I don't think Lelouch can have Kallen and Jeremiah - it's just too much power in his hands.

Kallen, being caught in Suzaku's geass (Deus Ex Machina), will fall in love with him. She'll fight along side him, and against Zero.

Sometime around the end, when Suzaku realizes there's a pretty large stick up his ass, they'll join up with Zero to kill the Emperor.


Of course I'm hopefully wrong... with Lelouch and the Geass Canceller at his side, he can easily geass and re-geass people until he's blue in the face. Taking Kallen back is as simple as, "Serve me," -- actually, my first order of business would be to put everyone under my thrall... but Lelouch'll probably never do anything like that.

 

He was not just a guard, he was in charge of the entourage protecting Lady Marianne.


@chime: It wouldn't be too much power if you include all the knights of rounds.

 

There's a reason we've only been introduced to 4 of the Knights, they're going to die in some inane way ( base exploding, etc. ) so the creators don't want people to get upset.

 

Or maybe the ones we now, except Kururugi "You must survive" Suzake and Knight one, are going to get killed meaning all the Knights left will go after Zero. This move takes Suzaku to rank 5 at least and makes him very mad at Leoluch XD

And I hate Anya (is that how it is spelled?) she just keeps shooting that bad ass cannon and not hitting anything... That really does not take skill to do. I hope we get to see more fight scenes between Knighst and Leoluch's army.

And I really hope that Kallen gets back to the Black Knights... Maybe I will get my wish and Todou and what is left of the holy swords (the best fighters left for the Black Knights) will move with Xing He (... Spell?) and try to take on the avalon to make a distraction. Gino, Anya and Suzaku will answer the attack with violence and Jeremiah and Leoluch will take the chance to save Kallen. Then the Holy Swords (or blades...) get killed by the knights and Xing He barely escapes... The result will be an evening of the playfield... Suzaku, Gino and Anya VS Kalle, Jeremiah and C. C./Lulu and sometimes Xing He (he will die battling somewhere along this season because of his sickness)

 

It's kind of too much power, but at the same time not really. Both are useful, but for different things. Jeremiah is kickass in fighting people, but I don't care what he's made out of, a nightmare frame could still kill him with one shot.

Probably the best use of the geass would be "Be loyal to me forever". The order can't be twisted, it has many purposes, and it doesn't make his people stupid twats who you can't count on to fulfill simple tasks like making them "thralls" (If we're talking dresden thralls here.) would.

 

Code geass...I like it. But there are a lot of inconsistencies in part 2. I'm not good with my words so I'll copy and paste from another forum which is my thoughts on the anime:

Really, sums up my only complaints of Code Geass. Part 2 hasn't been as good as part 1.

 

...I'm sorry, but considering the tiny people named after two letters who can go around giving people super-eye-powers, I'm pretty sure suspense of disbelief is out the fucking window.

The second season had to be much different. If it was the same as the first season... it'd be the same as the first season. The situation in which the Black Knights were in in season one made it impossible for Zero to win. The chinese had to be involved. As well, we need to see more about where in the fuck CC and VV come from, and WTF Geass actually is. It is only going to get weirder and more sci-fi from here on out.

 

First point-Isn't that what he's been doing now? Lelouch has been doing the same thing, just not quite the same type of battles as in season 1. Season 1 was mostly about fighting, where the major battles were fought on a giant stage. For now R2 has been focused on battles, but just a different type. Lelouch has been gathering his allies, first Rolo, then Villette, getting back in contact with the knights. There have been battles, but most of them were simply to serve the purpose of gathering allies and strength for Lelouch, to advance the story line.

Second point-Come on, we're watching a world where there are freaking GIANT ROBOTS fighting, where royalty still rules the world, where a teenager (no matter how intelligent or blessed with supernatural abilities) is leading an army. We have to suspend disbelief at some level, I found the ice ship to be a nice touch.

Also iceships have existed in history you know. During WWII the allies had a large prototype ice ship made completely of ice (well a type of ice, it was mixed with sawdust) to be aircraft carriers. The idea was that the ice could take a hit much better than a conventional carrier. The prototype built came out later in the war so it never saw combat and it was eventually abandoned. However even without the cooling systems running, it lasted for months in the hot sun. It's not exactly a leap of faith to imagine a futuristic society such as CG having a ice ship and making it work.


Third Point-That has no merit, we've hardly seen Jeremiah this season, how can we possibly guess as to his reasoning? Give it some time to branch into the later episodes.

 

I think there is a bit of a difference between using enigmatic eye-power giving freaks as an overall plot device and the ad nauseum use of Deus ex Machina to force a story to go down a specific path, one is good storytelling and the other isn't.

 

Where is the Dues ex Machina, exactly? Even Orange-kuns switch wasn't really necessary, as Lulouch had him pinned and could have killed him where he stood regardless. The ice ship? I think the multiple-Zero's device was brilliant, relying on Suzaku to honor his word. The only Deus ex-like device would be CHinese-samurai dude, who is ridiculously awesome for little reason, and even he's gonna die soon.

 

The Gefion Disturber? The mere existence of a mechanical Geass canceler? The fact that Jeremiah, despite becoming completely and utterly ruined by Lelouch, is completely and utterly willing to work for him at the drop of a hat?

I am very willing to suspend my disbelief but some things are just to stupid to do so.

 

Jeremiah only knows loyalty and honor. When he finds out that Lelouch is the seventeenth prince and son of the former Marianne, he finds no problem working for Lelouch. In that universe, the Empire is everything.

 

Actually this really wasn't much of a surprise, I mean at least one person saw it coming.

@neren - Jeremiah already knew that Lelouch was the 17th prince and the son of Marianne before he confronted him and he was completely willing to kill Lelouch for the sake of Britania because of his vast loyalty to the Empire. Suddenly turning sides like that makes absolutely no sense unless Jeremiah is an utter loon, which is possible, or Lelouch used his Geass on him, which he could not do thanks to the Deus ex implanted in Jeremiah's skull.

@JohnThePyro - Now that is more coincidence than anything else.

 

Gefion Disturber was a part of one a Lulouch's plan. If it isn't used for anything other than to contain Jeremiah, than yes, it was Dues Ex Machina, but I doubt that will be the case.

Geass Cancelor - You honestly didn't see this coming?

Jeremiah - You realize he's mostly insane right?

 

Honestly, kinda yes kinda no. I knew from the very first episode that the possibility was there, but I fervently hoped that the director wouldn't use something so stupid.

If he is insane then why would he instantly forgive the one who made him insane solely for the fact that he is seeking revenge for mothers death?
