I always thought Schneizel's illegal move was a form of mock surrender to gauge how Lelouch would react to it.ImpAtom posted:Kallen at least gets to have a whole shitload of awesome moments. Viletta just gets poo poo on from start to finish and ends up falling in love with a guy who is effectively a rapist. I know Ougi is a piece of poo poo but you might have to explain this part to me.

ImpAtom posted:I wonder how absurd the mecha power levels will get. I mean the Guren Seiten and the Lancelot Albion were loving insane beam-winged monstrosities and I presume the rules of mecha anime means they're both going to get some sort of upgraded variant. I'd love it so much if they went back to the early gen Knightmare Frames. They might be some of the raddest grunt mechs in any series I've seen.

I was going through some clips and there are some pretty good character moments out of R2. Usually involving Lelouch, Kallen, or both.

TFRazorsaw posted:That's what I mean, yes. She knew the whole thing was staged afterwards, along with the rest of the Black Knights. Word from the writer said if Lelouch told her what he was actually doing she would've went with him to accomplish the plan. And honestly if that gently caress Ohgi can marry someone who tries to kill him and betray his whole team I think we're already way past that threshold anyways.

Lord Koth posted:I don't recall the deception being revealed to the Black Knights afterwards - am I misremembering? It's just that a number of people who had personal familiarity with Lelouch and/or Suzaku - as opposed to just Zero - were able to figure it out even as it was happening, basically. So Nunnally, Kallen, Tohdou, Kaguya, Milly, Rivalz, maybe a few others. The the vast majority of the Black Knights were still clueless. Everyone that knew Zero's identity should have had a pretty good idea something was up (so however many people in the BK were let in on his identity after he was outed by Schneizel), the people that you listed are the ones that would roughly know the details (probably not Milly and Rivalz though, those two got left out of the loop on everything ).

ImpAtom posted:You shouldn't date people who mind control you, lie to you and force you into deadly battles for their own goals. I feel this very strongly. Thank you and All Hail Brittania. That's a funny phrase for asking questions with a magic eye ImpAtom. Kallen chose to fight before Zero showed up and she chose to keep fighting after. If anything Lelouch did the opposite of dragging her into a battle when he lied to her about how he felt to try to keep her out of the suicide mission he was going on. The lying thing is definitely true though, even if it usually was to protect one or more people. I hope she and Lelouch can work it out in relationship counselling.

TBF Suzaku did have some unnatural, possibly Geass related voodoo backing him up. At least, that was the plan up until the end of season 1 (they call attention to his seemingly unnatural abilities a fair bit and touching him seriously messed with CC).

ImpAtom posted:Suzaku is a regular joe, he's just absurdly talented and trained unless I missed something. I mean he's got the Live Geass which is ironically a boost to him but that is because of what it does to augment him. He's not magical though, just absurdly talented. After all Kallen is basically on the same level as him. Regular people don't go into epileptic fits when they touch CC. E: Or that time he flat out teleported multiple people.

I think my favorite fight in the show is still when Lelouch traps his forces at the top of a mountain and has Kallen nuke their way down while burying the enemy in a landslide.

She would’ve gone along with the Zero Requiem and suffered for it, that was 100% why Lelouch pushed her away.

90% sure that last one is because he wanted to see his sister one last time before he died. If anything he snapped back to sanity once he realized she wasn’t actually dead but he’d already kicked things off so all aboard the crazy train it was, since at least that way he could keep Schneizel out of power.

Coxswain Balls posted:Same. I kinda remember thinking some things could have been better but the way they wrapped it up was pretty good. The moment robots could fly the coolest part of Lelouch's plans (i.e. flipping the loving table every time) got thrown out the window and it sucked. The Gawain is acceptable though, because it's the evil mastermind's flagship and therefore should be able to fly :thinking:

Rody One Half posted:Hey the S.E.I.T.E.N. rules. It's the Albion that's the lame upgrade since it's still totally just the Lancelot with the energy wings stapled on. And the show doesn't really pretend otherwise, the entire fight is basically Suzaku riding on his compulsion to live more than the tech in his suit ImpAtom posted:I've come to like the Seiten more over time but I really thought the Flight-Type had a better mix of feeling stronger without feeling like it walked in from another anime where it can throw radiation disks and turn into a glowing pink streak. In fairness, Seiten probably had the best first rollout in the series

ImpAtom posted:Kallen vs Suzaku in one of the better rivalries in mach animation I think. Two absurdly skilled pilots who are a hair apart and the only time one really has an advantage is when they have a superior machine. It is pretty rare to see that and especially with so much back and forth. That does eventually change a bit when Kallen gets the bullshit powerful suit and Suzaku leverages his supernatural bullshit to get the edge on piloting just so he won’t die instantly. The main cast dynamics are pretty fantastic overall though, Suzaku, Lelouch, Kallen and CC all have pretty phenomenal chemistry (well, except Suzaku with CC, but they had...2 minutes of screentime together?).

Lady Gagazula posted:Given Lelouch's meticulous nature, I can see him taking into account all the little details about his death *(ie: sharpness and diameter of the blade, location of the entry/exit wound, rate of blood loss, estimated time to remain mobile/conscious, etc.) that would allow for him to take that dramatic fall down the ramp and land within arm's reach of his sister so that he could deliver a wordless deathbed confessional. While Lelouch has demonstrated he doesn't have a problem casually lying to her, it's possible that he couldn't bear the thought of her forever hating him as a result of a lie. I think Lelouch was fine with her hating him forever, but he was being true to himself in that moment and doing the one last selfish thing he wanted to do before he died and see his sister one more time.
