interesting Lelouch is so comfortable unmasking around Kallen now, seems he really does care about her.

That sounded pervy.

Maybe the mask is just really hot to wear (remembering Dark Helmut from Spaceballs).

What does everyone think Kaguya's opinion on the whole matter will be? I mean she is her friend and zero has her at gunpoint..

I think she realizes Zero isn't going to hurt her. She's really kinda a part of the Black Knight now so she probably knows the plan.

Her showing up at the wedding with Zero and Kallen was great.

I think she trust him and knows that he wont do anything to her. plus a dead hostage doesnt work well as a trading piece. I'm thinking zero and Kaguya will talk to her and influence her to their advantage. or maybe he will geass her.

Nina going mental again >_>. When are they going to kill her off?

Anyways, the chest game didn't make sense >_>. I believe a king cannot move next another king. It would put himself in check therefore it wouldn't work. Fail there.

Lots of fan service all around was good.

Now about the gun pointing at Tian Zi. That didn't make sense o_o. Tian Zi is friends with Xing Ke so surely if she would automatically side with him right? Why the gun pointing?

I didn't like this episode, but my biggest question is...WHY IS ORANGE ALIVE?!

Well, now that I think about it I guess him being alive makes sense since C.C. is also alive. I would still prefer him to be dead.


V.V. has clearly turned him into a cyborg who will be appointed by the Emperor to lead an army of clones to crush the Rebels for the Empire. I also predict light sabers will become a recurring theme in future episodes.


somehow that notion makes me laugh xD

Am I the only one who likes C.C. x Lulu?


They were like the most popular pairing from season 1, the complete lack of C.C doing anything over 9 episodes and the building tension between Kallen and Lelouch has pretty much made a lot of former Cc x Lulu fans switch.

Kallen got shafted in the second half of the first season, glad to see they are doing something with her here but if they shaft her again in the second half....

I must be the only person who not only found the aforementioned chess match downright hilarious, but also became that much more GAR for Schneizel because of it. I don't mean that just because it was a subtle "screw you" to Zero, or because he still revealed a part of Zero even though he lost. Most of all, it sets the stage for the kind of challenge Schneizel is going to be to Lelouch come later episodes.


Schneizel's swagger when he entered the party and for the rest of the episode was off the charts. The series should end with him and Cornelia punking both Lelouch and the Emperor.

that would be the worst case scenario ending in my opinion. i really wanna c the faceoff between lelouch and his father the emperor of britannia, and i wanna see C.C vs V.V
the only character who i wish for his death is suzaku.
o and that crazy green haired freak.

This episode left me with WTF? Why are two chess experts playing chess wrong? Why did Schneizel brought Nina to the party all dressed up as Euphemia and is also teching her how to be Euphemia? And why did we have to know that he's maybe, supposedly gay? (Not that I mind fangirl fanservice...) Why is Kallen constantly put in high school embarrassing situations in front of Lelouch? Why isn't it a problem for Zero who's still pretending to be a Lelouch, student of Ashford, to go to China? Villetta may cover for him, but it's starting to look like they have only one teacher in all academy...

I want more C.C. and Rollo. At least they don't phail.

people bitching about reality in an anime that has MECHAS: get a fucking life and see the real reality
people bitching about plot (page 2): there was actually plot involved here, but it seems like you were probably too stupid to notice, and no, its not moving slowly, its just setting up.... i thought people would've realized by now... (not aimed at chess)

some comments are getting really old, and it seems like people can't understand what anime is supposed to be....

anyways, for the episode.
new prologue, i almost wtf'd
kallen and lulu at it again, but it seems like lulu is fine with it
C.C asking for tabasco....what GREAT timing
Anya wa kawaii desu
wtf, nina? :(
xing ke's past, lolicon, but warm hearted
lol at Zero
Princess Kaguya is awesome, supposedly lulu's wife, suzaku's cousing, and she seems to want suzaku as a gift....
chess game was lulz, can't believe lulu backed down... and can't believe they personalized their chess game.... i guess its fine since its an anime after all.
crazy nina was bad...
xing ke's coup d'etat was awesome, but ruined by zero... i really wonder what happens now.
and.... i guess i am the only one left to say... ORANGEEEE-KUN!

Well, I don't think you can fully judge this episode until we see where it goes from here.

As of right now, all that happened in this episode that is really worth noting is that Brittania made a counter-move to what happened last episode. Zero / Lulu responded towards the end of the episode in his own way but didn't show his cards yet.

Telling from what happened, you can only assume that for whatever reason right now, Lulu can't have the Chinese Federation and Brittania fighting each other. He also can't have the Chinese Federation and Brittania joining forces or reaching any type of peace agreement at Zero's expense.

I'm not all too impressed with R2 so far as I think the story has made very, very little sense and it has taken a massive downhill slide from the first 3-4 episodes and an even bigger step back in recent times.

Supposed to be? It's supposed to take 9 episodes to "set up" whatever plot that is still not that apparent yet? Perhaps it actually is my fault, because you know I was kind of expecting R2 to be somewhat similar to season 1, where A LOT more happened in the first 9 episodes.

I think I was wrong though. I guess R2 really is supposed to be its own mindless fanservice until the end, and even then it probably still will be.

I suppose looking for plot or depth in a mecha anime actually is a little too much to ask, as you put it, but I was able to find it in season 1. I realize R2 will probably start going somewhere after they've... uh... "set up" the actual plot after another 10 episodes or something, and I still have faith. I just think that it could be done in a better fashion, instead of making it look like they're just milking it.

Then again, it could be the fact that season 1 was introducing everything and the whole rebellion, and now season 2 is merely continuing it. I could simply be oblivious to the fact that Lelouch has now established everything and is starting to do more, but for some reason it just doesn't feel right. It doesn't feel like R2 is going anywhere yet.

Ah, Orenji-kun, you have been missed<3 So glad to see you back~ Idk about anyone else, but I was waiting for his return, that crazy guy XD

This episode was kind of...silly XD
It mostly had a different mood about it, which I don't really consider a bad thing; it's just, well, different. Anyway, I was satisfied with the episode. I feel like I have a better grasp on Schneizel's personality (before he just seemed really nice and a bit spacey) and his aide Kanon is gorgeous♥ (I also forgot how tall, deep-voiced, and pretty Schneizel was! =O)

Wow, Nina. Still obsessed, huh? I like the part of her that's changed though (even though I think she was unnecessarily rude to Millay).

Lots of Xingke, who is beautiful as ever<3
And I think Tianzi is adorable! What a cute little girl! Hard to believe she was arranged to be married to Odysseus XD

I gotta agree with you there. This season's pace is rather different. I mean, things have happened, changed, new characters added, but I'm waiting for a huge bombshell or something x]

How unfortunate this is. Even though, Code Geass finally tries to take on the world picture it loses face in a lot of things. So, let's summarize what happened (SPOILER ALERT):
-The "one million zeros" move to a special region of the Chinese Federation
-Support coming from different places, indirect requests to be freed from the Federation (India, for example)
-C.C's role continues to be diminished
-Marriage is announced between figurehead of China and Britania's generals (I think, I'm not too sure of his true position)
-Schinezel seems to have taken a liking of Nina and a rather annoying tone of voice
-Psychology in chess, one of the better things in the episode
-Nina's egotistic attitude surfaces crazier than ever, which she blames on Euphy
-Pinky swear comes to the rescue, Xing Ke and Tian Zi reunited through a coup d'etat
-Zero loses another potential ally by taking the figurehead hostage
-Orange returns...why do people like him anyway?
(SPOILERS SHOULD END HERE, IF THEY COME UP LATER I APOLOGIZE)
It was an interesting episode, but I thought a good deal of things could have been improved on. Firstly, on the matter of fan service...please stop it. I'm tired of the story wasting seconds on it. Secondly, a more detailed explanation should have been given on the role of the Eunuch Generals or the plight of the Chinese people should have been evident to back the need for coup d'etat. Additionally, the coup d'etat should have had more emphasis rather than being scrunched up in the last couple minutes of the episode. Finally, Zero is making some rather silly decisions. I would think that Zero would team up with Xing Ke in order to maximize his front against Britania unless he plans on using guerrilla tactics on a world scale, which would be difficult to coordinate...even Diethard couldn't manage something like that.
Overall, losing front, but leaving us wanting MOAR. Code Geass R2 still has a chance in uniting us under the flag of the Black Knights. If we had more realistic strategy involved or more character development like Episode 7 (I think, but of course not in the same way). It could still be a strong series or even revolutionize the face of the anime world. It has been done before.

Code Geass R2 is currently airing in Japan (on sundays). If you're watching raws, you can probably get it hours after it airs. If you're watching fansubs, the fastest you'll get it is probably from [gg].

Episode 9 just aired this week. Episode 10 hasn't aired yet and won't air until sunday of next week (6/15).

roflmao.

Anyways this was a good episode. I actually liked how they portrayed the relationship between Lelouch and Suzakuu in this episode. I mean, Lelouch could have been taken out, Suzakuu could have let that green haired gal Nina take him out but he didn't....I don't know why, I just think that they are actually making Suzakuu more..."human" (he can control himself).

Btw, who else here HATES that green haired girl? I think her name is Nina...i don't know I don't really care. I thought she was okay at first, but ever since they showed her breakdown in the first season...with that HIDEOUSLY drawn face...ugh I just barf every time I think of it. I was actually liking her a little in this episode, all "wow...shes kind of pretty" then she went "OMG HIDEOUS FACE BLARG!!" and i was like "Noooooo there goes my waffles!!"

Damn betch...I liked them waffles T_T.
