| Interesting episode. Most of it centered around But what was up with |
| Yeah, pretty good episode. I was surprised when Kallen's mother turned out to be the maid she was so rude too. A bit silly that she didn't realize the reason for why Kallen's mother stayed at their home. Especially how she was on good terms with her mother before and knew of her kindness (assuming from the way her mother was talking when she was under the influence of "Refrain"), she couldn't put it together that maybe her mother survived all the hardship for her sake. I wonder if Kallen will be able to put two and two together and realize who Lelouch is. She has the most hints so far. Looking forward to how Viletta's investigation goes. I wonder what would happen if she came face to face with Lelouch once again. The new OP scenes are very nice. |
| Heh seems code geass crew has a neko-fetish =) Oh well i thought it was amusing. The thing about Kallen's mom was a bit odd ye, I wouldn't treat her like that at leat, uhm new OP scenes? gah i didn't look at the screen while it was playing heh |
| good to see new OP scenes... liked 'em this episode went from funny to serious to kind of... touching karen is really cute, if i were lelouch, i would have at least made a move on her... then again, this is not a totally romance show... so i guess i will bear with that... the neko-outfits were funny... and suzaku crying was also funny... another good episode |

| maybe lulu's plan is to gain support of the people through these methods before going on their "true" path. like if you have supporters backing you up, you are more successful, right? take musolini and hitler for example, they came to power through support of the people in their countries through a time of crisis and they thought that their cause is true, which isnt. i guess zero's group does not really understand what he is doing and they are just acting like local heroes instead of doing the "big stuff" but i think karen is gratefull that she went against her doubts and saved her mother and realized how much her mum loves her |
 |
| Kinda knew that they will start to question Zero's direction and where they were heading with the things they do. Kallen~ Neko Lelouch was lol |
 |
| It's Zero they're talking about. They still didn't know the capabilities of Zero at that time. But yeah, Zero is saving the world from Britannians and making them pawn for his own plant, that is to make a world suitable for Nunnally. PEACE and NO Discrimination + FREEDOM! |
|
| XD even if was Kallen episode Lelouch had his awesome moments ^^ Neko Lulu sleeping Lulu <3 |

| Neko Lelouch was so kawaii!!!! Well it is about time we find out stuff on Kallen well better late then never..... so as it stands Lelouch and Kallen both have something they are fighting for. |
 |
| ^ Well of course! Until now, the mystery about Kallen is her brother. XD Nao? |
|
| Japanese names sound so cool!!! xD... Naoto >.< |

     Sig WILL change soon~ |
| Yeah,they sure do...Naoto! =) That episode was kinda catty in the beginning. ^^ But I'm glad the rest of it was focused mainly on Karen/Kallen (it's "Karen" according to the subs I'm watching. o_O) |

 |
| That was really good, it was very sad where Karen/Kallen smashed into the room and there were loads of people reliving their memories through the drug. Very emotional too, and even managed to include the cool mech fight :) this series keeps getting better. |
 |
amazing dialog really outstanding writing  |
| Very sad and emotional episode. I mainly like the episodes where they're focusing rather on the characters than on the action more. Luckily those are quite common in Code Geass. Karen is an interesting character and I loved to see her emotional reuinion with her mother. |
| I feel sorry for Karen for having her mother as a maid... |
 |
| Nice to see an episode not focused on Lelouch, but Karen. Her mother working as her maid... that was touching. |
 |
| Interesting to find out more about Karen's character and her background.. though am now intrigued about what happened to Naoto >.< Neko Lulu and Kuma Suzaku = win xD and the new opening sequence really creeped me out xD |
 |
| this episode was really touching. ;; |
    |
| Was well I wasnt expecting that tear... |

| awww.. i feel so bad for kallen's mother.. but she really does love kallen.. even when kallen was such a bitch in the beginning.. its good that she finally realized it... |
| I like episodes,where focused on my fav characters, like Kallen. I give 5 *shows tablet* :) |

| poor mother... |
| Touching ep. It's cool to see some Kallen backstory and reason for being in the resistance. |
     |
| Now we know part of why Kallen feels the way she does. I still don't like her, but now I understand her a bit more (Twenty years in jail for possession of drugs? That's a bit much!) And it was good to see that bit of self questioning in such a strong woman. It makes her a little human. It was really a heartbreaking scene, seeing all those people in the room high on Refrain. Not unlike a shooting gallery...glad that the Black Knights got involved in destroying the shipment. Also liked the parts where the characters waxed philosophical about whether to assimulate or fight (Lelouch put on a good act there and he sure earned that slap in the face!), and whether the Black Knights were being self-righteous or not. Which goes to prove that even in an anime, are no simple answers to complex questions. It got me to thinking, which is always good. |
 |
| Is it just me or was the OP a little different? |

| okay back to the story |
| I don't really understand what was happening to the people in the warehouse.. Were they on a drug or something? |
| deffinetely better than the last one :) last mintes were very emotional 4/5 |

| This episode was a little sad, Kallen will stay without her mother for 20 years... |
 |
Zepwich said: Is it just me or was the OP a little different? It def was, They used some diff images. Kallen's relationship with her mother broke my heart. SO sad. |
  |
| That hotdog guy was there too in that room with all the drug users...so sad. This episode was one of the most powerful for me emotionally. |
| Really emotional, so sad to see so many Japanese using the Refrain drug. I love Kallen, she's one of my favourite characters and her back story was so sad. I hope her mother recovers because she deserves it, and I hope Kallen rekindles her relationship with her mother. |
| How could Kallen not understand that the reason her mother stayed as a maid was because she wanted to stay close to her daughter? Very emotional episode. |
| Fwck. Other than that: Zerachroma said: makes me wanna ask if the path they're taking is the right one... guess I have to keep watching |
  |
| Intense. |
 |
| Nice episode concerning Kallen! Really nice story that strengthens the character! |
 |
| Kallens mom.... ლ(́◉◞౪◟◉‵ლ) |
| ...Was that supposed to be some kind of revelation? -_- That the mother stayed in the house and suffered the abuse simply to be near her child? WOW I did not see that coming. |
 |
| Nice character development for Kallen. |

| We get to see more about the situation of the war, like how the Japanese live and are bullied, as well as the drugs that are aimed at them, which is also backed up by the police...how disgusting. Also, I liked the conversation between Lulu and Suzaķu, their opinions really differ. I have a feeling that Suzaķu is the preachy type, because I don't see how he will be able to change the system from within when he is being discriminated against despite being an honorary soldier or whatever it's called. |
