Code Geass R2

They called him bait. All I can see it meaning is that they knew the Lelouch had some sort of connections to the Black Knights, and more importantly, C.C. They know nothing of who he is. Thus they called him Lamperouge. Also, Villletta has been known to change sides. Often. So she may be there to spy on him. Or she may just be a teacher now.

Again, I may be wrong, but the way the Baron acts, he's just a nobody sent down as a "Maybe" effort. Though he seems to recognize Geass when it's used on him, so I can't be certain.

Also, what do you mean, the foresight? She was right outside, beating up Orange-kun. Since she is an immortal, it's quite possible she lost the Gawain, or at least seriously fucked it up, and still beat him. Then she came across the three of them, each trying to hold the other two at Gunpoint, and simply done a bit of mind rewiring. Locked Lelouch's Geass and altered his memories, calmed Kallen down, and did whatever to Suzaku before fleeing.

Also, the beings the C.C. and V.V. are, for all their power and bluster, don't, or maybe can't, interfere directly with normal human efforts. Which is why they use agents to grant their wishes. So, if that's the case, it may be that C.C. sealed Lelouch's Geass, and restored him to Normal Human status, so the V.V. couldn't harm him directly. And since V.V. hasn't made a contract with Suzaku, he wasn't her agent, and didn't immediately run off after Lelouch. In fact, the Emperor may have summoned him because of his frequent contact with Geass and C.C./V.V. Probably for some Special Forces unit.

CC didn't beat Orange-kun. At best, she only held him down, which is why she recklessly rammed the Gawain into the Siegfried. Orange-kun is a better pilot, in a better Knightmare, so she couldn't do much other than hold him down. The odds of her being able to get to the surface, seal the Geass, and keep Orange-kun busy is exponentially small. Let's not forget that the OP seems to show Orange-kun still alive, and that he may have some small measure of immortality from the experimentation done to him.

By foresight, I meant CC being able to see the future. If she can't seal the Geass after Orange-kun arrives, then the only option is a delayed sealing that took place before Orange-kun arrived. (The kiss stands out in this regard.) However, she would need to know in advance that Lelouch would be safe even without the Geass, and that he would need his memories sealed. The only thing I can think of that would support CC sealing the Geass is that Marianne knew something, though that's stretching it a bit.

Anyway, I know why Villetta is at Ashford, and I know why Suzaku is before the Emperor.

We find out what happened after episode 2, for the most part. We still don't know where Nunnally is. Suzaku, with his incredible athleticism, shot Lelouch's gun, then he came in close and kicked him. He ripped off the Sakuradite with a single hand. Kallen runs away in mental anguish. Suzaku then sells out his best friend to the Emperor himself to become one of the Knights of the Round. Charles uses his Geass eyes to rewrite Lelouch's memories to bring out CC. Well, now no one can say they hate Suzaku for being a goody-two-shoes.

Kallen has a 'heart-to-heart' talk with Lelouch. The future relationship between Kallen and Lelouch looks promising, or at least entertaining.

Suzaku is shown something that only the Emperor knows of, a weapon to destroy gods which seems to be the mysterious shrine we have seen intermittently throughout the series.

Most of this episode parallels episode 2, as Lelouch promptly wipes out most of the enemies, until a new Knightmare Frame arrives, piloted by Rollo of course. The new Knightmare apparently has extreme high-speed capabilities, and starts wiping out the Black Knights. The Black Knights barely manage to escape to the Chinese embassy where Lelouch uses the Geass on th pale-face guy. Zero then delivers his return speech as some members of the KotR discuss it. Diethard hilariously shouts for joy in the presence of Lakshata and Sayoko. We also see Kaguya Sumeragi (Sumeragi? Is that a popular last name to use lately?). Rollo shows up in front of the embassy, and he says he's there to kill Zero ... and he has a Geass.

Oh yeah, and Nina appears ... without doing a scary face.

Everything seems to come back to the school setting. Rollo might be on Lelouch's side now. We'll see if Shirley's memory is just fine or not, but it seems Viletta will hunt Lelouch down.

Damn. Now I feel stupid for coming up with what I did.

Oh well.

Knights of the Round have a Loli, so I can go to bed happy.

...Is it me, or does everyone and their dead grandmother seem to have a Geass all of a sudden?

Nina's back, though. I wonder (read, hope) if something will kill her this time.

I also noticed that about the geasses. I was like..."Who's giving all these people geass powers? And why? Unless the two that are Lelouch were given by V.V....

Nina can't die until she is reunited with her true love, the table.

Mikuru-chan-I mean Anya-san, doesn't seem to qualify as a loli to me. She's roughly the same age as Suzaku, so she's about as much of a loli as Rin from FSN. Though I guess I am just arguing semantics here.

Anyway, I am interested in Rollo's Geass. The first thing that popped in my mind was that it was mind-controlling like Lelouch's naturally. But I wonder if it is more like hypnosis or something more subtle, like how Mao could manipulate people even though his Geass didn't actually alter people's thinking.

Ironically, Suzaku is doing exactly what he didn't want to do at the start. Instead of following a 'just' path, he is like Lelouch in that he now thinks in terms of the ends justifying the means.

@ tsujoi: Remember, CC had two people who had a Geass from her at once (Lelouch and Mao). It is quite possible that VV may have given more than one Geass as well.


Eh? Did you get this line from the Gundam 00 thread? It sounds awfully familiar.

The Lancelot pioneered Knightmare size personal shields. Maybe Rollo's mecha pioneered local dimensional hops?

I'm not big on Hypnosis or sub-conscious manipulation, but I don't think that's what it was, seeing as how it's shoulder was damaged by Urabe's blade. If it really was just screwing with their minds, I think that maybe it would have avoided that.

I've heard things around the net suggesting that Rollo's Geass is to do with teleportation. He looks at a spot and can be there instantly. This could also explain how his Knightmare frame was so fast and seemed to "vanish" as he could just teleport using the power of his Geass

... it would make sense. It surprises me that he could also transport an entire Knightmare with that power. Although, I don't see the point in Rollo being confrontational to Xingke. I am assuming that Rollo's Geass has a cool-down time, so he can't just teleport around. This would explain why he got hit in his Knightmare's shoulder, but teleported away from the explosion. I wonder if Rollo could teleport inside the building from just seeing the inside from Zero's broadcast.

Diethard still cracks me up.

Rolo: I knew it, he has his own geass, after seeing him teleporting in the game, I assume that he has one. But, I thought A geass's ability is connected to mental connection (Mao: hear thoughts, Lelouch: Obediancce, Charles: Memory control?) Rollo's geass is a little bit too convenient.., and his mass-produce Lancelot, The Vincent is still as fast as the real one.
And I think my theory that I posted days ago, about Rollo defecting to the Black Knights side, may come true. A year to spend time, with his "older brother" must left an impression on him, if not than his just a puppet killer for Charles and V.V.

-still trying to figure out Xing ke's plot to use Zero

-Diethard made me LOL :lol:

I think they are overdoing it a little bit when it comes to Geass. For my taste there are too many people running around with a Geass and something says me, there will be even more showing up.
By the way i still dont get it why the King didnt kill Zero. He must have some pretty big Masterplan if he let someone dangerous like Zero life on.
Concerning Rollo and if he will join the ranks of the Black Knights, that depends on who he really is. First of, i thought that he was assigned to keep an eye on Lelouche/Zero, but judging from his reactions so far, it doesnt looks like he knows that Zero and Lelouche are one person.

By the way i hope Viletta and Kaname (I think he was the Black Knight who found and take care of her) will find together again. Before she remembered and tried to kill him, they were a nice pair.

You mean Ougi? But yeah, Villetta can disappear, I want Chigusa-chan back.

Anyway, the Emperor didn't kill Lelouch because he was the only person who could lure CC out of hiding. Hence the whole 'bait' situation.

There's not that many people running around with a Geass. I mean, we know of a total of four Geass users, one of which is already dead, and I had figured the Emperor had a Geass already. I don't think you need to worry about Geass users coming from every direction. Not even Schneizel nor the other members of the KotR know about the Geass. It's possible that Geass users may come from other countries, but I only expect one from the EU and one from the Chinese at most (this excludes the dead Mao).

So...I was bored just now, so I started rewatching season 1.

Jeez, now I feel a little silly for not knowing the Emperor had a Geass, after the awakening of power scene with C.C.

Also...so, they're called the Ragnares?

Was this one common knowledge, or did everyone else sorta tune it out as "Not Important" when watching season 1?

Well, it's hard to keep things in mind, when there are more 'pressing' matters at hand. I forgot about that one seeing as it hasn't been directly brought up. Also, don't you mean "Ragnarok", not "Ragnares"? Doesn't that have to do with a war against the gods?

Huh..if it's Ragnares, then it may just be a name. If it's Ragnarok, then the Xvid version I just got for my Ipod has it wrong.

Let's see...gg has it as Ragnarok, so let's go with that.



Going by that, it could mean that Geass is a power not just "Of the King", but "Of the Gods" (Geass of the King +1)

Or it could mean that it's a power to be used against Gods.

Though I'm not sure that we should delve too deeply into Norse mythos for the plot, because most of the "Hero", named Mecha are named after bits of Arthurian legend.

However, back into norse for a sec,



So, if by some chance it IS Ragnares, then that could again be interpreted as Geass being a power Of or Against the Gods.

Or, I may just be overthinking things again.
