THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
HAHAHA! The secrets of Marianne's assassination was not so much different from what I anticipated, but Lulu as Britania's Emperor was totally beyond my imagination.
So V.V.was the only bad guy? Being jealous of Marianne and feared Charles would go away from him, he killed her and all the messes began.
Charles's plan reminded me of the Human Complementation Project in Evangelion.
The flying Emperor is like Zeong. lol

So now the battle will be shifted to Shneizel & Black Knights versus Lulu's Britania. Good twist!

Btw, did one of the Lulu's brothers (I forgot his name...) say "Nunally was found"? Nunally was found dead or alive???

In the world of C, Suzaku held the sword to Lulu. I'm curious what they discussed after that. I don't think they made peace. Just postponed the conclusion until everything is settled.

If the name "Zero" was a long-term foreshadowing for the "Knight of Zero", I have to give the greatest possible praise to the director Taniguchi.

Ok.... There was just one phrase running through my head this while time: WTF?

I give up on even trying to think of whatever might happen next.
And Schneizel's (spelling?) end phrase made me think we might get a third season... though I don't have the slightest idea of could be done with one...

Was Nunally not the governor of Area 11 ? DOH ... think for yourself a bit what he ment by that , and if u still dont understand it PM me and i will give you the answer !

This episode was the most interesting up until now.
It revealed the true story behind all of the “misfortunes” that were happening, Lelouch gains an even more powerful geass and “defeats” Charles and Marianne (and their plan also).
But the biggest twist of events so far happened, Lelouch seized Britannia and made Suzaku his " Knight of Zero " ~ the one above all knights ~ ... but I didn’t even imagine the turn of events ending this way ... I had some ideas about how he will become " Emperor Lelouch " ~ according to episode's 22 title ~ but I never taught it will end like this and with Suzaku as his right hand.

lol @spinzaku with one kick taking down a bunch of armed guards.

also lol @ milly and rivals reaction to their new emperor

so it was V.V that "killed" her, and we find out charles motivation and he and marianne had good intentions just a poor plan that made them not care about anyone. as expected lelouch + suzaku re-team since they could "do anything" together. I guess Lelouch gets the knights of the round but no bismarck while Schneizel has the black knights. C.C didn't look very happy at the end I'm sensing another betrayal there since she doesn't like the new Lelouch.

seriously though they have a month to prepare for that and they put on their school uniforms? hahaha

are Lelouch/Suzaku really villains now or is Schneizel and the black knights the villains? at least Lelouch finally admitted to Suzaku it wasn't just because of Nunnaly but because he wanted to protect everyone.this is an odd way of doing it.

All Hail Lelouch !

when suzaku and lulu talked at the shrine, suzaku said he would help lelouch if he can make the lies True.. So, now that it can be realised, i guess they teamed up to make the world better.

And i think schneizel was always plotting to take the world, but just acting good and all.
doubt theres another season though..still 4eps left to end the story.. maybe some ova or movie but..

I had to pause the episode when V.V. did that little stunt because it was just so ridiculous I couldn't stop laughing. Lelouch using Geass on JUPITER made me lol even harder because I was just thinking "WELL I SEE WHERE YOU'RE GOING WITH THIS TANIGUCHI :D"

So now for the next 4 episodes I guess it will be some gundam fights and schneizel running around going :3 and stuff while kallen is sitting there agape and not doing anything. can't wait!

Its not JUST Uniforms, its Ashford Uniforms. Its a little nod to get Ashfords back their positions they lost with Marianne's "death".

Thats why I think that becoming Emperor is just a part of Lelouch-Suzaku plan. I think that they thought up a new plan to change Britannia - a fusion between their plans of "Destroying from outside and Changing from Inside. Lelouch becoming Emperor was, most likely, just a first step on the way to their plan. So no, I doubt they are "bad Guys".

Now Schneizel...he too, seems to be playing a game of plans. Who wants to bet that both Schneizel and Suzaku-Lelouch plans will be ruined by reappearance of Geass storyline? C.C is, after all, still there and we do not know anything about "Suzaku's special source of his HAXXNESS". In the end, it will be Ragnarok again.

so wtf was Schneizel doing for a month while there was no emperor and bismarck had told him? why didn't he make a move? it was still weird seeing Diethard with Schneizel and them. well the black knights period. oh and if Schneizel does take over the UFN he should definitely wear the Zero mask for the irony.

I still don't get what exactly ragnarok did.

Suzaku gets his wish not as knight of one but knight of zero to take command of area 11.

Yep, this basically sums my thoughts for this episode (I'm still a bit in awe, since they sure know how to throw a billion stuff, per episode, at us).

lol these past two episodes have made me lower my score for the season from a 7 to a 5.

It's like the writers went, "Oh crap! We have 15 episodes worth of material and only 5 episodes left in the series. Oh well, who cares if we push 50 million plot developments in the final episodes and turn Charles and Marianne into nothing more than paper thin plot devices to put Lulu on the throne. Just make sure every episode has at least one Pizza Hut endorsement on the screen so we can earn that money!"

After this episode I don't even know if I'm gonna watch the remaining. The plot is incomprehensible and the part that you understand makes you wish you didn't... I really like the first season... but this one... there are so many pacing problems, so many incoherences both in terms of plot and char development... This episode turned an average anime to a really bad one.

And here I was, thinging that Detroit Metal City is the funniest thing this year. Hell, this anime episode tops it all. During the whole ep I was like 'laugh or throw up'. Overall, for comedy - 9.5/10 , for what CG was meant to be after watching 1st season - 4/10. Hopefully, they'll end franchise after R2 (excluding toy's etc for making $$$).

This is just getting silly. The whole episode I had the feeling they desperately took the story in this direction. Maybe because the original idea got spoiled/guessed by everyone. Its just idiotic beyond words.

The whole reasoning Charles and Marriane had was messed up, Spinzaku all of the sudden gets over his loss and is promoted to "good guy" again. Seriously they need to pull a miracle out of their asses, if they want to give Code Geass a worthy ending.

Glad you understood that he ment the time when Nunally was found and made governor of Area 11 ( and Lelouche was still missing at that time ... since he was under surveillance for being Zero ) ... and he states that he was thinking that if Nunally was found Lelouch would also be found soon also ( or something like that )
Now i'll quote ( and comment also , probably ) some stuff said here ;)

Susaku and lelouch char developments for example, the fact that susaku magically becomes friend of lelouch when he had so many reasons to hate him and the fact that lelouch lies even when he gains nothing from it.

About the "plot inconsistencies" maybe that is a bit of exaggerating, but what I was trying to say is that the whole geass/emperor's plan thing is badly explained and since they made it so central to the story it brings down the anime. For example Death note has supernatural elements but they cleverly never dwell to much on it, and in C.G. R2 they try to explore it but it's all to fast and not very well told.


Edit: oh and there where no arguments on my initial post because it was meant to be expression of the feelings regarding C.G. R2 and not an argument.

Well .. Lelouch does lie a lot ... but didnt you see lately when he lied it was to protect someone else ? ( example what he said to Suzaku or the Black Knights ... taking all the blame with himself for everything that went wrong ) ... and probably Suzaku is not that stupid also and kind of understood some of those things Lelouch and Charles talk about ( i didnt realy understood them well ... but i get the feeling that they were ment to " clarify " the situations to Suzaku ~ to turn him into Spinzaku ~ ... )

Plot Inconsistencies is way to exagerating ... since they do throw us to much developments lately ... but its true that up untill now the Geass is kept to a bare minimum need to know basis ... and i have a feeling they will throw us a bunch of Geass developments in the next episodes ... or just fail totaly and dont give us any info/developments ... and create a wiki page for it sometime later :)))
