Code Geass R2 — Episode 17
I don’t have time to blog much about this episode. Not that there’s much to blog about. It’s just the chickens coming home to roost. Poor Lelouch. He is so misunderstood. :(
Summary
Her boobs grew bigger
The new United Federation of Nations launches an attack on Area 11. Nothing really interesting happens. Knight of One has Excalibur, which he totally stole from Suzaku’s cat.
“No Suzaku! Someone might see us here…”
Yet another misunderstanding widens the colossal gap between Lelouch and Suzaku, driving the two former lovers farther apart. When everything comes to an end, will they once again find warmth in the embrace of each other? Or will the cruel spike walls of conservative Britannian society prevent their deviant feelings from becoming reality? Stay tune to find out.
Kallen, your time will soon be here!
Zino (or however his name is spelt) is apparently related to the Ashfords? He’s also being particularly friendly to Kallen… Looks like he has some other agenda than his obligations as a Knight of the Round. My guess is that he will go against the will of the Emperor and fight to realize the dream of his beloved Suzaku. He probably has some super awesome Knightmare Frame stashed away under Ashford Academy which he will lend to Kallen for great justice!
“Oh yes, don’t worry bro. I’ll ’save’ her…”
And oh yeah, Lelouch assigned Rollo to lead Nunnally’s rescue mission. Uh, wtf? He has clearly forgotten about what happened to Shirley. Good bye Nunnally, you were the least annoying of all the lolis, although Kagura can be awesome sometimes.
Thoughts
Meh. Maybe next time.
Screencaps
Suzaku kidnaps Nunnally out of jealousy
Serious Suzaku is serious
Born to die
Penetration
I think this show should stop introducing new characters
BDSM porn
“I like.”
Wait, what?
“It’s morphing time!”
“I…don’t know you”
Go Go Power Rangers
More BDSM
Don’t ask, don’t tell
:3
Superfluous recurring characters
A knight in shining armour
“Suzaku is such a slut. I’m going back to Nunnally.”
So much BDSM
He’s riding a Knightmare with specialized janitorial equipment
A shallow character introduced late series who will probably amount to nothing and die
Gah. Physics test tomorrow. Sigh.
August 4th, 2008 at 11:08 pm
I loved those Power Rangers captions. Next episode will be great!
August 4th, 2008 at 11:11 pm
whatever code geass throws, this blog stays funny
August 4th, 2008 at 11:19 pm
So this is why you didn’t play TF2 today for the first time.
August 4th, 2008 at 11:29 pm
I wonder how they would end this show. Introducing new characters one after another.. >_>
August 4th, 2008 at 11:30 pm
Possibly Suzaku, Gino, and Anya pilot will all switch sides.
August 4th, 2008 at 11:31 pm
It’s as if before the meeting, Lelouch had wondered “If in any event our conversation is recorded, what should I say that will put me in the worst possible light?” Would be interesting to know why he lied, though. And it was probably necessary so the Black Knights wouldn’t look entirely stupid once they find out and overthrow him.
C.C wants a ring… :D (and she will get one)
August 4th, 2008 at 11:31 pm
Looks like Prince Schneizel will win the war and the Emperor and Lelouch most likely killing each other off. :(
Prince Schneizel will most likely reap those benefits after Emperor and Lelouch got all their allies killed. :(
But no, i don’t want lelouch to die and the story to end that way. Though i think it most likely will end with the downfall of lelouch. :(
And oh great, Suzaku going after Lelouch and Lelouch without Kallen as his bodyguard. Not going to forgive Suzaku if he ever kills Lelouch.
Rolo most likely going on a killing spree. just kidding.
August 4th, 2008 at 11:40 pm
It was a nice episode.
Haha, sending Rolo to save Nunnally?
August 4th, 2008 at 11:57 pm
What happens when the Unstoppable Force (Excalibur) hits the Immovable Object (Shinkirou’s shield)? ;o
The smile seemed oddly old C.C. I’m intrigued, excited, and a little apprehensive all at the same time.
My guess is Rolo is the grunt force which’ll get peppered with bullets, *possibly* saved, barely, by Rolo’s geass, whereas Sayoko is the real infiltration and rescue agent.
August 5th, 2008 at 12:16 am
Yes, C.C faking the whole thing would be the best twist ever. (Lol notice they were playing her old theme. They did it too in the last episode, but here it sort of adds suspicion.) Although if ever she’s just acting, it had better not be just for the lulz.
August 5th, 2008 at 12:18 am
R2 has some serious pacing problems (mainly because the slow pace of R1 and the addition of useless characters in R2) leading to a lack of consistent character development (what does Rolo really think about the whole Nunnally rescue mission is bugging me). While the confrontation between Lelouch and Suzaku was far from being as shitty as the one the boy had with his father back in ep15, they could have made it a lot more intense. As expected, Bismarck and Galahad are godly, putting a lot of pressure on Xingke with little to no effort. Guilford loyalty for Cornelia seems to transcend all kind of logics :(, Lelouch really came with touchy-risky orders lastly. And unless Schneizel intends to make use of Ragnarok and being responsible for the murder of Marianne, I’ll have trouble to see him as the final foe if he were to become it.
August 5th, 2008 at 12:23 am
I am really rooting for Nunnaly as Rolo’s sister and Anya as Lelouch’s real sister XD That Korean spoiler really seemed very true and has basis as well like Rolo not wanting to give up the locket or making others even touch it (even killing those who managed to touch the locket).
One thing though, the FREYA is not a nuke or a bomb. I think it is somewhat an ultra-improved Varis with collapse effect that looks like a normal short rifle without the long barrel. It’s equipped beneath the Lancelot. I do not believe the 10M people dying from that one unless they make a really big nuke housed inside avalon (a bomb using the destructive power of the freya) or a big version of the Freya, replacing the hadron cannons of the Avalon.
August 5th, 2008 at 12:36 am
The Avalon has Hadron cannons? I thought the ones they used were the ones on the Gawain prototype?
August 5th, 2008 at 12:47 am
I really liked this episode, it starts the epicness of code geass. I can’t wait to see what Suzaku will do. And yes Rolo will do something stupid to screw it all up….
August 5th, 2008 at 12:50 am
Guilford thinks Lelouch is Cornelia… Lelouch is gonna get raped
Nunally is gonna die too, and Lelouch is gonna go emo again
August 5th, 2008 at 1:01 am
i thought i was….
August 5th, 2008 at 1:13 am
Phew…I was so sure that the opening pointed to a KallenXSuzaku. But it seems that our favorite girl is more interested in the Lulu pics. Heh, next episode is likely gonna be more loss of man power for the Brittaniashes =P. I really want Gundam Virtue to be on our side.
August 5th, 2008 at 1:31 am
Chickens are born to die.
*cackle*
August 5th, 2008 at 1:32 am
This episode tugged at my heartstrings a bit. Here’s Lelouche, on his knees, begging for help, accepting his sins… and Suzaku treats him like he did. Does Suzaku ever own up to his own misdeeds?
Good to see The Demon King is back. Should make for a great last 9 episodes.
Though, why didn’t Lelouche just say “Euphie was an accident. Shirley was killed by Rolo without my consent.”?!?!?
August 5th, 2008 at 1:40 am
“Wait, what?”
C.C and Lelouch are now officially engaged. Didn’t you get the memo?
The wedding is next Sunday. I expect to see you give a better reporting for that event though, No excuses. I don’t wanna hear about Physics tests or tiredness or anything else.
August 5th, 2008 at 3:33 am
Lelouch should’nt of sent Rolo to save Nunally -_-, but i don’t blame him since he does’nt knw Rolo hates nunally since he saved Lelouch with his geass when he was talking to nunally.
Also Lelouch does’nt knw Rolo killed Shirley cos she said the N word.
Judging from the preview for ep 18, I think Nunally dies from a….explosion? and Lelouch goes crazy. lol
August 5th, 2008 at 4:05 am
Probably because it’s his character to not make excuses. Because those things happened due to the fact that he didn’t have enough control.
August 5th, 2008 at 4:09 am
There’s always the possibility of Charles using V.V.’s teleportation powers for whatever reason to pull Nunnally out of harms way (dunno why he’d do that if he plans on destroying and remaking the world, though, ’cause in that situation she’d die either way).
August 5th, 2008 at 4:31 am
“Though, why didn’t Lelouche just say “Euphie was an accident. Shirley was killed by Rolo without my consent.”?!?!?”
It’s as Suzaku said…taking the blame. What does it matter who did it? It was his fault and making excuses only makes it worse.
Suzaku would’ve killed him if he said like “Duh, i kinda killed your girlfriend by accident. Won’t happen again. Promise.”
August 5th, 2008 at 4:50 am
Woah woah woah. What? What teleportation powers?
August 5th, 2008 at 5:00 am
Future episode: Kallen/Gino you must kill suzaku in order to save Japan!
August 5th, 2008 at 5:15 am
A physics test and all you think about is BDSM?
August 5th, 2008 at 5:19 am
“He’s riding a Knightmare with specialized janitorial equipment”
Gha ha ha ha ha! XD that’s probably true. Poor what’s-his-name, he’s the ultimate nobody of the Black Knights, never getting a promotion from Zero.
I had a hard time with last ep, didn’t comment since I didn’t feel there was much to be said. What I mean is that it was all to get to this point and beyond. But, this ep was something else. I found the meeting between Suzaku and Lelouch exhilarating, but I do think @Orange has a point in saying that there could have been even more tension between them. And it’s not very satisfying with Lelouch taking ALL the blame onto himself, there is just so much calculation to be done regarding other people (can he really be blamed for Shirley’s death, even if he knew Rolo was/is a liability?). But, it fascinates me to see him bow down before Suzaku, showing some humility at last, just to cast it away in the next moment as he fully quenches the last warmth in his heart for events to come, to keep up the lies to the end.
But, this ep could have done with a clean-up. To much side stories, to little Geass essence. I’d loved to see some kind of build up of events to come when Rolo will play the role of “knight in shining armour” on his “brothers” behalf. Surprise deaths like Shirley’s are a commodity that shouldn’t be overused…Nunnaly should be spared of such a fate…
August 5th, 2008 at 5:20 am
All I feel when I look back on my physics lessons is a dull pain and the torture I had to sit through :P
August 5th, 2008 at 5:47 am
I might just add, I realise, about @Blue’s first post, that it was an echo of my own thought upon that scene. Lelouche tricked the Chinese eunuchs into spilling the truth about themselves, but couldn’t be smart enough to avoid saying too much in a situation that might be used against him? That’s a bit hard to swallow for me…
But that might be the pacing problem @Orange was hinting at, sometimes there’s not enough focus on the thoughts of the characters, but the events are just being pushed forward, or isn’t going anywhere special at all…>_<
August 5th, 2008 at 7:09 am
Yay kallen will be freed next episode, or will escape, also suzaku doesn’t have the balls to bomb lelouch it will probably take some real mind fucking like telling him he raped euphie before telling her to kill all Japanese XP that would really fuck suzaku up.
August 5th, 2008 at 8:27 am
Her boobs are bigger than her head! @_@
First Knight to go down, next or the following episode? Probably a horrible death.
August 5th, 2008 at 10:51 am
Kallens boob is being pushed up, I dont remember where I saw this[dont judge] but I remember watching a medieval movie from school and this really young girl had big breast which my classmates pointed out. Its being pushed up by such a silly dress…..haha. Personally I like the evil lelouch especially last season and episode 14, its bad and all but he was pretty awesome, and next episode he goes nuts?
August 5th, 2008 at 11:12 am
i got a feeling that nunally somehow,will survive.don’t ask me how but that’s what i think of.and rollo,perhaps he’s the one who’s going to die and if it was not too soon,it’ll be later then.
August 5th, 2008 at 12:45 pm
I’m calling a tragic ending. Tragic for anyone related to Lelouch that is muahaha.
Seriously though, these last 8 eps are gonna blow our minds. At least, unless Sunrise interferes [zomgwtfbbq!]
I say, Kallen kills Vampire. Xing-Ke and Todou kill Bismarck. And Zino and Anya reveal their connections…
Oh yeah, Schneizel’s gonna release his inner pimp and go berserk on the world.
August 5th, 2008 at 1:19 pm
This episode showed only one thing: Lulu is a liar.
August 5th, 2008 at 1:57 pm
Based on the preview…I’m really worried about Nunnaly here…
August 5th, 2008 at 3:38 pm
@Amnestic
yep, i was referring to the prototype hadron cannons installed in the Avalon
@lilu
i wouldn’t term it liar. if he was a liar, he would have had made excuses for his sins/supposed sins so as to make him look innocent. i would term it as blame-taker or masochist or a martyr (although coining for the word martyr, he is also to be partly blamed for some of the sins/supposed sins he has committed – like in euphemia’s death, he shouldn’t have had joked about an order which could bring awful results)
if it is about Rollo killing off nunnaly, s/he(lolz) wouldn’t do it for the reason that nunnaly is his sister (I believe in that korean spoiler that Rollo’s sister is nunnaly and the real sister of Lelouch is Anya – good reason for anya switching sides after her memories revert or something when Schneizel announces to the world the identity of Zero [i also believe in this spoiler as Schneizel even said that he has all the cards now - he will utilize them even though his move may be very cheap/underhanded] XD)
August 5th, 2008 at 5:45 pm
One of the boring episode..
August 5th, 2008 at 5:56 pm
Nevermind Nunnally! Tamaki’s knightmare gets owned! D:
August 5th, 2008 at 7:28 pm
Well…you can look at it that way. Technically he was responsible for Euphie’s death. Albeit accidentally, he did give her the order to massacre the Japanese. He was also the one who shot her in the end. Shirley is a bit of a grey area. If he hadn’t geassed her in the first place (R1) it might never have turned out like this. He took the easy way out at that point, and it came to bite him in the ass in R2. He couldn’t have counted on Rolo intervening, but Shirley’s actions were still, in effect, partly the fault of Lelouch. Plus it was his ‘brother’ who killed her, so I can see why he’s taking the blame for it. He’s not lying, so much as exaggerating his part in the deaths, and ommitting certain truths (like geassing Euphie was an accident)
:( His janitorial equipment is no match for real weapons.
Also, and I know this isn’t speculation or anything, but I found it awesome how the sheath for Excalibur has its own landspinner.
August 5th, 2008 at 8:11 pm
The Avalon didnt have any back then, the Gawain was firing out of the hatch.
He isnt dead so he cant possibly be a martyr ;)
That spoiler is pure bs imo, schneizels statement also doesnt proof anything since both Nunnaly and Anya are on his side atm.
August 5th, 2008 at 8:31 pm
Avalon installed with hadron cannons statement – false XD yeah I watched again the episode and it was Gawain inside the Avalon haha <— too old to remember actual details lol
@cor yeah so i was thinking of what the term should be hehe and I was referring to martyr here satirically – just an exagerration of what he is doing atm. XD
August 5th, 2008 at 10:38 pm
Suzaku knew he was lying to him, not telling him the full truth. He even stated so himself.
What if Lelouche said something along these lines.
“Due to my actions, Euphie was killed by my hands. I actually meant for Euphie to shoot me to start an uprising of the elevens, but my Geass became stronger and triggered by itself as I was explaining my power and plan to Euphie. At the time, I thought this was my best option. I never wanted this for Euphie, but I accept my sins. I loved Euphemia as well and now she’s yet another person I have lost. Please Suzaku, help Nunnaly. You’re the only one who can.”
Not quite as elegant as Lelouche would say it, but I believe if Lelouche would’ve told the full story, Suzaku might’ve been a bit quicker to release his foot from his head. To me, before Guilford showed up, Suzaku was somewhat willing to let go. He’s very, very torn. Questioning himself, his own resolve…
The way Lelouche said it in the episode, was just lacking. Suzaku knew it. He knew there was more.
But alas, I doubt that would’ve changed much… with the ambush.
August 5th, 2008 at 11:47 pm
Physics is my worst subject, it requirse differentlevel of thinking.
http://www.codegeasstv.com
August 6th, 2008 at 12:05 am
Apparently V.V. was the one who transported everybody to that formerly-deserted island that just happened to have a Thought Elevator on it back in season one.
I think physics is fun. Especially calculus-based physics. (Please don’t kill me, people. >_>)
August 6th, 2008 at 12:27 am
I bet Tamaki’s “specialized janitorial equipment” includes a mop and a bucket. I think that he dies next episode though, it looked like he got owned in the ep 18 preview.
August 6th, 2008 at 12:32 am
why doesnt lelouch just tells suzaku everthing about the geass and all instead of taking the balme for everything? why do u huv a physics test tommorow? is it not the summer hols for u or something?
i dont get it about tamaki and his equipment?
August 6th, 2008 at 2:20 am
Ah hah. I was under the impression he had them transported, as in, shipped them, as opposed to actively teleporting them. If he had teleportation, he could have ported out of the Siegfried when it was going down, why not do that? Or he could have dodged Cornelia’s knife, I mean, I know he’s immortal, but it still hurts to get a knife through your forehead. I’m not sold on teleportation, I think he’s just pretty stealthy and no one asks many questions of a crazy little kid with far too long hair.
*Knifes*
August 6th, 2008 at 4:57 am
I’m thinking it had something to do with the Sword of Akasha and the Thought Elevator that was on the island. (After all, in R2 episode 14 it was shown [well, implied] that it is possible to open the door of a Thought Elevator from the Sword, and as the Sword of Akasha is apparently a device that causes the user’s mind to affect its environment, one possibility is that V.V. temporarily opened the door of that Thought Elevator and used the Sword of Akasha through the open doorway to “think” the people to the island. I mean, it’s not much different from what Charles did inside the Sword, so…. Oh, and also, that might be the basis for how Ragnarok is going to work; that is, Charles will open all the Thought Elevators at once, and will think the world into destruction and then remake it as he wills it to be.)
August 6th, 2008 at 7:39 am
[quote]that is, Charles will open all the Thought Elevators at once, and will think the world into destruction and then remake it as he wills it to be.)[/quote]
“think the world into destruction. You know, the sad thing is – it’s not outside the realm of possibility… not when there was an episode with million Zeros.
ugh, if that is indeed the case – someone will die
August 6th, 2008 at 10:37 am
…
Too much Gundam SEED? ;)
August 6th, 2008 at 11:15 am
GBABH: Last episode, when you saw that the UFN was declared, it listed most of the important positions in the organization’s military (The Black Knights). Somewhere on this list, Tamaki was listed as some kind of janitor or back-up something, I have no clue. Either way, he’s just as insignificant as one, which is why he’s so awesome.
Mop powers away!
August 6th, 2008 at 2:31 pm
Heeey… Referring to that so said Korean spoiler, what if Lelouch tells Orange to Geass Anya and Gino and then they will remember that they hate the emperor and join the Black Nights. Nunally dies. I can FEEL the spoiler.
August 6th, 2008 at 4:33 pm
wrong translation imo, gg translated it as Domestic Support Officer.
August 6th, 2008 at 5:16 pm
That’s Janitor in fancy speak, or backup janitor if you’d prefer.
August 6th, 2008 at 8:09 pm
I think DM forgot to mention Ragnarök Online ^^;
And GBABH, Singapore don’t have summer break >.< *How I wish we have one*
August 6th, 2008 at 8:26 pm
And, then Sunrise will get some angry lawyers complaining that that was a total rip-off of Vision of Escaflowne…>_> If it had been so easy for Charles to win the war he would’ve done so already.
I sense that the key to the events to come will be when C.C. regains her memories (which I take for granted will happen at one point or the other), Lelouch finally putting that smile on her face as he promised…Aaah, me wants more romance! LelouchxC.C. preferably!
August 6th, 2008 at 9:27 pm
1. Vision of Escaflowne had a different endgame device; namely, one which granted the wishes of all people (well, “granted” in a loose sense of the word). Charles’ device would just grant his own wish; that is, the destruction of the world.
2. Perhaps he needed a Code to do so? That wouldn’t quite explain why he didn’t just take V.V.’s Code once his Geass became strong enough, although that could perhaps be attributed to the sibling relationship between Charles and V.V..
August 7th, 2008 at 5:22 am
Ragnarok will probably turn out to be a huge mecha, following the first law of Sunrise (to get better viewing figures, mecha > plot).
August 7th, 2008 at 8:19 am
My spoiler site saying Luciano has something to do with Kallen escaping is holding firm to it’s beliefs, however I doubt that will happen. I was right however, about the meeting between Suzaku and Lelouch. That they would be interrupted by Schniezel and that Lelouch would think he betrayed him.
My thoughts on this episode…it was pretty good, nice character development, though I think Lelouch goes from Crazy to nice to crazy all too suddenly nowadays. In season one it was gradual from start to end, in season 2 it is at first, normal, then more evil, then slightly less, then even less then that, then shirley dies and he goes bonkers, then he not-so-gradually switches from evil to nice to accomadate the new C.C. and now he’s an evil dude again. He’s like Suzaku, personality changed because of a misunderstanding. This makes me think that it’s gonan stay like this until the end…but…knowing sunrise…
Looks like a fighting episode next time…possibly some Nunnally development. I doubt that Suzaku is angry at Lelouch any more, he might still want the truth but he doesn’t hate him anymore, he’s just torn between his duty and his friend. Lelouch however is psycho-evil again (yay), so we can see more heartless deaths.
Also, the Guren Ganesha is introduced next episode, looks like Kallen is back (woohoo, I still prefer C.C. though I’m doubting the existence of a happy ending). I heard somewhere that it’s gonna end in a double feature like last season, makes sense, but who knows. I think the actual relationship between Luciano and Kallen is actually just, Kallen kills Luciano…simple and to the point. Brittannia is screwed though, the bulk of their units don’t have anti-gefjun, though it seems the knights of rounds do and some elite guys (glaston knights) do.
By the way, Bismarcke isn’t a new character, his first appearance was in like episode…2? 3? either way, he’s not new (unless your talkign about the guy on the upper left).
Also, the Ragnarok, is CONFIRMED to be a massive weapon (geass related) that is connected through all the Thought Elevators. I’m under the influence of the theory that states that the Ragnarok is going to be what the Thought Elevators true weapon against the gods is.
That’s enough for now, I don’t want to write a bunch, most people don’t read it then.
August 7th, 2008 at 12:09 pm
Ragnarok = Reality Marble
August 7th, 2008 at 9:09 pm
@Wrathos, LOL
August 7th, 2008 at 11:34 pm
dud sorry but this aint related to code geass actually i just browsed the translation of what bout my star of macross frontier. in the 5th to the last line of your translation (oshiete! your true feelings) i think the oshiete that you used (teach) is wrong. another meaning of oshiete is (tell). in my own translation i think it says “tell me your true feelings. sorry dud not really a comment bout CGS2. sono kotaba wa youku kangaete ne. ore wa hontoni gome ne to gambatta yo. ja ne
August 8th, 2008 at 6:23 am
Ragnarok… isn’t that from Norse mytholigy, something to do with sinking the world and then returning the land to a new state of being? I’m guessing its something similar given that the show seems to ooze such connections lately as well as just the slight over tone of Arthurian legend.
I can’t really work the king out at this point in the series given that he is now immortal yet his whole concept is that no one is created equal and that mankind only advances through conflict and the putting down of others… if he rules the world there is no conflict, right?
I do have one question though, if so many people now know who zero really is (with most of them being on the side AGAINST him) why has no one outed him before now?
August 8th, 2008 at 9:35 am
@Dragoon, I thought Ragnarok was the final Battle between the Gods and the Giants? Yeah well you’re right though the world was remade after the battle. Many of the Gods and Giants died. Including Odin, Thor, etc etc.
August 8th, 2008 at 12:46 pm
@Rololita: I don’t think Sunrise is actually about to sue itself if they reuse an Escaflowne plot element. Just wouldn’t make sense. :p
August 8th, 2008 at 4:00 pm
Of course, with code power, Emperor lives.
So, he would turn the key, kill everyone, and use just kinda…dance on their graves…
That’s the most sense I can make from something called “Ragnarok” and the conveince of coding your way out of death.
You can bet he’d do it but he’d never have a reason.
August 10th, 2008 at 2:59 pm
Lol, i bet Nunnally is going to die cuz Lulu had a massive iq drop
August 10th, 2008 at 3:08 pm
SPOILER WARNING:
Here’s a snipit of what’s gonna happen (It’s from wikipedia, and i know they were right, since i looked at what the new ep was gonna be.)
18 “The Second Decisive Battle of Tokyo”
August 10, 2008
Schneizel learns Zero’s identity just before the decisive battle in the Tokyo Settlement begins. With the power out, Tokyo is defenseless against Lelouch and the Black Knights. With Sayoko’s help, Kallen escapes and joins the battle in the new Guren Ganesha’s Eight Extremities-Type.
19 “Betrayal”
August 17, 2008
Amidst the carnage in the battle of Tokyo Settlement, a Britannian special envoy visits the Ikaruga, driving a wedge between the Black Knights.
20 “Emperor Disqualification”
August 24, 2008
Lelouch escapes a dilemma thanks to Rolo, but the world is changing and he has only one path he can take.
21 “The Ragnarök Connection”
August 31, 2008
Area 11 is in chaos, and Suzaku looks for a fight in his new Lancelot Albion, no longer the gentle person he once was.
22 “Emperor Lelouch”
September 7, 2008 —
The UFN and Britannia clash in a conflict that will change the world.
August 10th, 2008 at 10:06 pm
According to Wiki.
Taken from last two lines of Anya’s character description. Seems that she might really be Lelouch’s real sister.
August 10th, 2008 at 11:06 pm
Episode 18… what can i say…
***speechless*** gasp!
most of the spoilers are really coming true but the Korean’s prediction that Nunally is Rollo’s sister was really false – which I really believed too (wah hehe).
Rollo is unsaveable. period. She’s officially gay.
The preview for next episode has no japanese audio nor subs – just Lelouch getting all maddened by what happened. It’s really going to be tough times for Lelouch and the forever repeated quote: “Those who hold the power of geass are bound to walk the path of solitude” is the key for what will happen in next episodes as they really are making this statement bound to happen.
wah T_T
August 10th, 2008 at 11:23 pm
Episode 18 was awesome…!

ur right geass made Lulu alone again… in the least expected way. Hint hint(shaoran kills sakura)
by the way i didnt know Rolo was a transvestite.

Sunrise created such a sadistic story… Lulu has gone emo. Suzaku is gunna die, rolo is gunna die, nina is gunna get raped and killed, Kallen is gunna die, the story ends just like death note or a luluxcc

Yeah, I really didn’t expect that the Freya would take out part of the parliament building. However I think Rolo just said that so Lelouch stops searching for her, but who knows.
I am really horrified by what you think is funny. By the way, think before you talk, Suzaku has a live geass, so it’s impossible for him to die basically. Also, I doubt thee will be any rape in this show. (you must be going, “Aw, Damn! I can’t fap to Nina!”.
One last thing to say, I was right about Kallen and Luciano (heh heh), and I doubt that Nunnaly is dead because my theory is that the Brittannian special envoy that visits them will have Nunnally in it (since Schniezel knows who he is and what his weakpoint is). Although I am disturbed by the whole thing about “cutting the black knights in two”, it might mean that there are those who are loyal to him after knowing he’s the former prince of Brittannia, and those who aren’t. My guess of the loyals are, Tohdoh, Jeremiah, Rakshata, Ougi, Diethard, Sayoko, Rolo, Guilford and Kallen. The unloyals is probably like Asahina and Chiba and a few others who were at the geass directorate incident. If I named a few dead ones, my bad, all I’ve done is read the episode reviews.

Could you be more specific here? Rolo didn’t just say it, she did actually get engulfed by the light, and you saw the gigantic crater at the end, it’s highly unlikely a light aircraft, even with armour, would survive that when the ground was literally incinerated beneath them.
Assuming that the light really does crush everything, then Sayoko, Guilford and Male-Holy blade (Asahina, ain’t it?) are dead. Rest should still be alive. Next episode: Tamaki looks like he’s doing something (OR IS HE?), Lelouch gets pumped, we find out what’s in the locket and someone makes Kallen cry again :( Though that may just be because Nunnally is dead. Though, obviously until we see a body…maybe she’ll come back as the masked pilot for the mythical (and highly unlikely) Code Geass R3? :P
I’m running out of metaphorical similes to address your idiocy with. Do the world a favour, place a loaded gun between your teeth and paint the wall red.
That episode was full of ups and downs. Ups: YAY KALLEN’S BACK. Downs: Holy crap they actually killed Nunnally :O:O:O I quite enjoyed it, and it was nice to see they haven’t forgotten Anya. Who, by the way, looks crazy cute when she smiles (looks almost like C.C’s pink haired little sister. :D). It’s during the OP if anyone cares >_>
I liked how they reinforced Ougi’s uselessness, forcing that Original Black Knight guy to take over and start giving orders and addressing tactics. EP 17’s comment from Diethard about Ougi’s existence being ordinary, and thus special, only reinforces my view that Ougi’s just there to have people stay loyal. He, along with Tohdoh, are the ‘face’ of the Black Knights, really.
Though Suzaku did look like he was gonna die, everyone knew it wasn’t going to happen. The necessity for him to come back with a new Knightmare (I’ve nicknamed it Wancelot (Winged Lancelot, or Wankalot! Dual purpose!)) and the ‘Live/Survive’ Geass.
I find it interesting that they would mod the Guren SEITEN before modding the Galahad. You’d think the Knight of One would also get the most up to date and powerful equipment, no? Though this was likely a lack if logic for dramatic license as an anime, as opposed to a setup flaw.
Finally, it looks like the Gino+Kallen thing isn’t finished yet, they still have yet to fight which means Kallen has yet to smash the Tristan up. Looking forward to how Gino and Anya turn out. Anya+C.C. need more airtime :(

episode 18…whoa….just…whoa….i’m speechless…
August 11th, 2008 at 6:54 am
…
Summary:
:D … D:
I am still in shock…
That bastard Schneizel! He probably wanted it to happen.
Kallen is a goddess. :3

Oh, by the way, did anyone see that they used “Mao, wait for me…at C’s world.” in the english dub of code geass?
Guilford is dead too…T_T
August 11th, 2008 at 7:10 am
Except, as far as we could tell, the World of C was just C.C.’s mind/memory. That’s silly, sounds like someone messed up. =/

It’s Sunrise damn it. By the way, the kill radius of the bomb is 1300 meters, so if Nunnally was far enough away she’d still be alive. By the way, remember this is Sunrise, also, a nuclear bomb shed’s light upon things many hundreds of miles away, so just being englufed in light doesn’t mean much (I think).
It’s confirmed that Marika, Sayoko, Guilford and (was it Asahina or Chiba, my sources are mixing me up, I wish I could watch the english sub already) are dead. Apparently David (believe it or not he was my favourite glaston knight) and that dude with blue hair are dead…uh…a bunch of others. Total death toll is unknown. I haven’t seen the preview so I dunno about Tamaki, and I think Kallen cries because of what the Freya did.
Agreed.
I need more Anya, she’s my favourite lolicon of the series (sorry Kaguya, Tianzi and Nunally), also I’m really wanting more of her background story! DAMN IT! EXPLAIN IT ALL!
Yeah Diethard can be pretty smart sometimes. So, I’m in total agreement.
Suzaku just messes things up so bad for everyone else, however I like how his character changes personalities. I mean everything he’s done so far has a (semi-)valid reason to it. Euphie dying (insane Suzaku), the live-on geass (when Euphie admits she loves him, when he flees from the Gawains hadron blastors when he first gets the geass-order to live on and when he launched the freya) it really seems like his character is being fucked around with the most (next to Lelouch). Though personally I love it when the writers fuck with the emotions of the characters (i.e. Doctor Who season finale woot! and Shakugan no Shana’s part where she gets her ass kicked by the Interpreter of Condolences because the writers decided to fuck with her emotions). I dunno why but it just makes anime (and British media) so much better.
Note that this is Lloyd we are talking about, we don’t know why he does things, he just does.
I doubt the existence of a hapy ending but if there is one then I want a LelouchxC.C. and a KallenxGino. Maybe Suzaku will die? Yay?
Yeah I didn’t like that ( I have been rooting for CorneliaxGuilford for a LONG time. He was one of my favourite bit-characters with a name.
By the way, the wrap this all up, I have officially watched all 49 episodes of Shakugan no Shana and the movie (three times) in 2 days! And that was going from episode one to s2 episode 24 straight! YEAH!

Okay, I jsut watched episode 18 twice and here’s my new thoughts of what happened.
Asahina, Kinoshita, Sayoko, Ms. Romeyer, Nunally, Guilford and various others died in the implosion of the freya. Look at the crater that was left behind. There was *nothing* left. Nunnaly was inside the building and the building is *gone*. Even Lelouch who was very far away almost died.
Basically, I’m gonan guess that there will be a sad ending, and that various more people will die in the next few episodes.

I’m addicted to your website, even if I don’t understand a single word of it.
