Roro isn't as hardcore no-emotion guy as I thought him to be, he fell right into Lelouch's hands.

Yeah :D :D

Zero somehow always manages to make a miracle, he's undisputedly one of the best characters ever, even just because of this.

Nice buildup, a bit less action full like the past episodes but still quite great episode, good that they're all saved in the end and he manages to get that other Geass user on his side! Lets see what's next!

I, too, feel rather bad for Rolo, but I understand Leloch's hate towards him. Right now, he's only the bastard killer who replaced his sister. You know how fierce Lelouch is with everything concerning Nunnally *sigh* but I know he's gonna regret what he did later.

Feel sorry for Rolo, who's never been loved and so hungry for affection that Lelouch doesn't even need his geass to manipulate him.

Oh no. Here comes Suzaku to ruin the show....

Poor Rolo, being manipulated by Lulu who has extreme hatred for him. As if Rolo hasn't already had a bad life, but Lulu wants to break Rolo down. Not that Rolo doesn't deserve to die in the end or anything because of all he did, but he doesn't deserve it from Lulu. Lulu definitely is leaning towards the psychotic side.

Just noticed that tremendous character development from Season 1's Lulu. I remember before, he couldn't get Suzaku to join the Black Knights and now he's using his manipulation techniques on a guy that was ordered to assassinate him. Not only that but Rolo's power > Lulu's power yet Lulu is overcoming it. This show is simply amazing.

That intense execution was a bit disappointment for me.I expect Zero to act differently.
He used same strategy before(ground breaking).
Well,Rolo is with the Order now,What next?

Well, as expected of Lelouch and this is a great episode. But I feel kinda pity for Rollo since he thinks of Lelouch as a real brother while Lelouch himself doesn't even give a shit of what will happen to him except the fact that he is useful.


Rollo is not exactly a sympathetic character (so far).

I like the power balance between Lulus manipulation and Rolos superior Geass its definitely gonna be a recurring theme. I wonder when Lulu will mess up and have to use his Geass on him will definitely be interesting.

Im also curious with Lulus plan for a new world order when China will ever stop using the black knights as a distraction and perhaps they will become a threat. Or maybe Zero will just take over China lol I love this series

Lelouch is really something else. "The memories may have been planted, but the time we spent together is real." If it was anybody else, I would've been like, "D'awwwww! How sweet!" But because it was Lulu, I was more like, "rofl stupid noob is being emotionally manipulated." AND I WAS RIGHT, OF COURSE.

Not that I could criticize Lelouch for his action. It's just fascinating how scummy he'll get compared to a normal "protagonist."

WOW. Rolo really is an idiot for believing Lelouch in the first place. Lelouch is just using him to get his sister Nunnally back, and I don't blame him one bit. At least they saved the members of the Black Knights. Onto the next episode!

What a great episode. Rolo's an interesting little dude, he's been a killing machine his whole life, his Geass is to freeze people and not stop time as Lelouch cleverly ascertains. And despite being raised as a personality less assassin, he's now developed feelings for his fake big brother the terrorist. This was a pretty smart way to maintain his cover. But I do question how Rolo will explain his actions here to the Britannians. Guess we'll figure out next time. They might just have bigger fish to fry, now that the Black Knight squad's been reunited. That was an awesome bit of ingenuity. Even though the Chinese dude marveling at Lelouch using the building itself against his enemy was kind of silly since he did in essence the same thing two episodes ago.

Speaking of which I'm getting kind of confused by the Chinese plot. Why did Li kill the powder faced Eunuch? Why did he say at one point he was going to destroy the Black Knights? What is his end goal in all this? Guess I'll have to press on to find out. Also I like how Lelouch is such a Machiavellian piece of shit, I honestly wasn't sure if he would just sell out C.C. to keep his cover. But nah of course he wouldn't right? Yeah thank god. This episode might have had the juiciest ending hook yet. Suzaku is back at Ashford, presumably to determine if Lelouch has awakened. Fuck him up Lelouch, like at this point you could kill Suzaku and I wouldn't even feel bad.

Oh cool, so if an assassin points his gun and says his orders are to kill you, all you have to do is promise to abandon your friends, and that you'll let him live, and he'll disobey his mission and help you! How convenient!

Rolo's Geass is similar to what I expected it to be, in that it just stops time relative to a person's perspective, and not physically alter reality like Dio. Lelouch is pretty clever to get out of that situation with Rolo. Only someone with 200 IQ like Lelouch could pull a stunt like that off. Not sure I fully understand what the Xingke is going for, in keeping Kallen back only if Lelouch does something. Was he saying they could only act if he showed up? Then why did C.C. say they couldn't do anything when he did eventually show up? Lelouch managed to pull off another miracle, which was A+. I feel pretty bad for Rolo, all things considered. Don't get me wrong, I vastly prefer Nunnally, but Lelouch is totally using him. I can see why, though. Suzaku is back to school, huh? I miss old Suzaku and am not a huge fan of Suzaku being an antagonist like he seems to be now, but I am interested to see how this develops.
