| Why is Lelouch's code called R.R.? Wouldn't L.L. suits more (Lelouch Lamperogue)? Whats C.C. and V.V.'s name? I'm dying to know.. Doesn't the emperor have a Code too? |

FayteKenshi said: Why is Lelouch's code called R.R.? Wouldn't L.L. suits more (Lelouch Lamperogue)? Because there's no such thing as an l sound in Japanese. l's have an r pronunciation instead. |

Wishy said: L.L. is pronounced Eru Eru, "L" doesn't exist in Japan. Neither does R, though R.R. would be aru aru or something like that. Don't be decieved by the romanization. We're really not talking about eru eru but rather エルエル and not aru aru but アールアール. It's a different sound than in English, and it always comes with a vowel - a i o e u (in that order I think). Thus there is neither an r nor an l. /tangentish |
| It's written in english, Lelouch is spelled with L. and who the hell said Lelouch's code is R.R.? who the hell said Lelouch even has a code? here's an example. a JAPANESE promo poster. look at the bottom left corner, and tell me if it's Lelouch or Relouch.  You're taking this spectulation way too seriously. THE SHOW'S OVER, BAI BAI |

| The L sounds: la, li, lu, le, and lo don't formally exist. They share the hirigana and katakana characters for ra, ri, ru, re, and ro. So the code R.R. does stand for his name. |

And how would you explain C.C.'s name? I'm pretty sure C.C.'s and V.V.'s name both start with their respective letters. So why are they making an exception for Lelouch's initials? Why would they bother to use the Japanese pronunciation of his name (Ruruushu) and use that R as oppose to using his intended name Lelouch with the L. C.C. is pronounced as Shi Tsu. V.V. as Vui Tsu. So why can't L.L. be Eru Tsu? Again, regardless of the fact that L pronunciations are substituted with "ra" group, if they stated themselves that his name is spelled as Lelouch Lamperouge, there is no need for them to use the R instead of L. His name is obviously not "Rerouch" nor is it Ruruushu, since that is only their pronunciation of the name Lelouch. |
| Maybe they just didn't want to make it painfully obvious, so they chose the next closest thing. Besides, how do we know that C.C. was her initials? For all we know, her actual name could be something totally different. Besides, R2 (A-tsu) is shorter and more precise to say than L2 (Eru-tsu) |

It's probably something like Round 2 since the episodes are paralleled with a chess game (Turns, iirc). |

| Speculating about the title really accomplishes nothing, and I'll admit that I was blowing smoke out of my ass. We all have to remember that when it comes to Code Geass R2, one has to leave logic at the door. |

| OMG MAIBEE IT'S SO KOOL BCUZ IT'S ALL OF THOSE!!!111121!1 THEIR LIEK SOOO SM4RT!!!!!!! Really though, it's like analyzing a poem/novel in English class, there's always tons of literary devices like symbolism, satire, puns, etc., that you can apply to it but in reality the author probably only planned about 20% of it. All the other things that people find can be applied though, so the author just goes, yep I'm a genius like that. Plus, they find new things that tie as the story progresses, and just incorporate them in. How many people know exactly how all of the details of a story are going to turn out when they're writing a story? They probably realized the R2 thing towards the end, but I doubt that they planned it when they first started the season. |

| Word of God (in other words, Sunrise) has it that the R2 stands for Rebellion and Reconstruction, the two major phases of the show. Can't find the source, but there you have it. |

| For the generally stock-conservative Japanese I imagine "rebellion" sounds pretty darn destructive. Or they just wanted the alliteration. |

| Eh...people unable to let go of character. He is dead people. He got a redemption and epic death and thats all. Let's stop grasping on straws. He is alive...in the hearts of those people who understood his real plan. Thats all. he whole "Code" theory is just CG/Lulu fangirls/fanboys(I liked the show but in no way i am going to drool over it for years) escape from the truth that Lelouch actually was not a bastard and genuinely died for the world. When studio itself writes up the correct Romanization, they, usually use the correct ones for initials too. R2 can either stand for Round Two, Rebellion Rebirth, Revolution Renaissance or any other word mashup with words beginning in R. It is not R.R...get over it already. |

I'd be too busy wondering when Scooby was going to make his guest appearance. |

| C.C. or C2 is what she call her self. But she used to be human and used to have a different name. Later when she got immortality she become C2. Using that to bind up the theory of R2, after Lulu obtain immortality he becomes R2. Or as many states R.R. Fai, Sunrise left all this small things in this anime for us to speculate if he is dead or not. If they wanted him being 100% dead they would at least show his face. |
| I shall know no fear as I am fear incarnated |
| I thought R2 is connected with something like Rebellion 2 but probably I'm wrong. That gives us hope. V2, C2, R2. But Charles the Emperor hasn't such a cool nickname. XD Then... That was strange, he has his "geass sign" on hand not on forhead like V.V. and C.C. And when Lulu destroyed the World of C, while he was vanishing, Charles touched Lulu with that %&#! hand! XD Oh well. I guess I really want Lulu to be alive. Sorry for my english. ^^' |
