Rebirth of the Rebellion - Code Geass R2 Talkback (SPOILERS)

I wouldn't got that far. Yeah, Lelouch is extremist, but at the core he still wants justice and a free world. By the end of his little adventure, Light just wanted to stay alive.
 
That was prety good for a semi-rehash of the first episode of season one.

now when does he get to the mater of busting his guys out of jail?

that last scene with the king of Brittania and his knights gave me this Legion of Doom vibe.

im glad for Suzaku having only one scene with only three lines, as it should be, last season he pulled a Ryuho (S-Cry-Ed) during the whole anime, we all know who the main character is this time.

hehey loves that ending song.
 
I'm amazed that Ougi was so big on ratting out Lelouch. Maybe he's just tired of being dicked around by the Britannians in the group, but for most of the series Ougi has always defended Zero. It'll be even worse if he's being motivated by either racism or love. Diethard looks pretty beat up in the preview, so it looks like the Black Knights are about to become a pro-Japanese rabble.
 
Preliminary impression:

Nunally surviving I could buy depending on the circumstances, but making her out as an enemy? What kind of BS did Schneizel say to pull that off?
 
Well, on the note of Kallen liking Zero, but maybe not Lelouch... I think it's the same as with Superman or any other superhero that had a secret identity. Kallen went on for so long not knowing Zero was Lelouch, she sort of grew attached to him and admires him so much. That's just my opinion of course. Deep down, I think Lulu may be growing on Kallen a bit, but I don't think she likes/admires him as much as his other personality, Zero. All just my opinion of course. I personally like Shirley as Lelouch's other half instead of Kallen or C.C., but which ever one it may be at the end, I'll be fine with it. I'm into the show for the other stuff that isn't shipping. =P

As far as the actual episode goes, minus the kiss/almost yaoi moment with Rolo, it was a good episode. I liked the mindrape by Rolo there on the train, Haha. At least that's what I thought it was too. Lulu using Geass on the street scum in the alley was great. Him saving the Black Knights' asses with the help of Rolo and his Vincent was great too. The Black Knights would be screwed without their Zero.
 
Well it's either sacrifice or allow Schneizel to waltz towarRAB victory. I think that when dealing with a power like Schneizel who has absolutely no guilt towarRAB other peoples deaths, Lulu has no choice but to attempt and match it for the sake of everybody else. If anything that scene with C.C. made him once again feel human.

You guys want all these 'Light' esque things to happen but Lulu WASN'T a criminal. He's still doing this for the sake of everybody else, not to mention it's war. He isn't walking out into the streets and shooting people out of spite where as Light was killing off innocent for the hell of it. I don't think Lelouch and Light are anywhere near each other because at least Lelouch is still grounded. He hasn't lost his mind. Yes, he's done alot of things I don't agree with, but I would rather him win than get blow apart by Schneizel's 5000 borabs [along with the rest of the world].
 
you know, Suzaku's entire plan on being ruler of japan is prety durab in the long run, it all depenRAB completely on him remaning buraber One Knight for the rest of his life, its not happening, sooner or late someone else is going to come along wanting to be it just as badly as Suzaku, its like watching the WWE, nobody ever stays champion for more than a year or two.
 
A bold statement from me, but- anyone who can accept Ougi and Viletta has never sampled love or seen what happens when a relationship breaks down. That must be the only way someone could enjoy this sugary, fairy tale nonsense. Because EVERYONE must be paired
 
As far as Geass' jingoism goes, I've actually argued the opposite elsewhere. I was only pointing out that the discussion was becoming different compared to what was being discussed before.

On further thought I could say plenty more about the issue, but too much has been said about the racism topic already and I think the thread neeRAB a break. I'll be interested to return to the topic once we're deeper into the season and we are hopefully exposed to more of the Geass world beyond what's happening in Japan.
 
Lloyd will narrate the epilogue and be shown years later surrounded by an extremely hot wife and a few artificially created super children (he messes with that Chemical X from the power puff girls), hel look exactly the same except wrinklier.
 
Yes, I want a CG Reboot ending!

Like I've said, I can't defend this show. I love Code Geass but I have to file it under guilty pleasure. Then again, I was always expecting insanity from this show so I've been prepared for these last 3 episodes.

I'm surprised everyone expected develpoment from the other Knights of the Round. When I first saw them I though "cannon fodder". After all, there's no way there developing how many knights in any decent amount. And lo and behold they even show a new knight just to kill her off. Like I said, it amuses me but I certainly can't defend it.
