Show was too awesome not to get it's proper topic back. Also the sound dramas and such are still being release.

From the final picture drama

Needs more explanation. Also, is the "[tornado fang]ing STORM OF LOYALTY" canon now? XD

Why'd the English dub go on hiatus NOW

agreed.

Ledouche is an absolutely terrible character. the plot's a real mess, too. Shirley's death was completely unnecessary. i don't even care for the plot in R1.

yet when the show is on, i can't help but watch it.


What happens in Vegas stays on Youtube. I also stream on Twitch from time to time.

Well [tornado fang], I dunno what to say then. R1 is still classic by all means to me. If you had mentioned R2, I'd have easily conceded that, but wow. XD

And Lelouche terrible? Can I ask how? He's not the greatest, but I wanna hear some healthy opposed opinion.

Save that for RMZX, he's a near-total fanboy of the series. :p

So its about ass now huh? EVEN THE ASS HAS 'EXCEEDED'!

One mention of LEGENDS and everyone goes batshit.  :\

Yep, every time when someone mentions that game people get energized for an apparent reason whatsoever. It's like this everywhere else, trust me.

It got really messy to find my sprite and comic topic, so it's in my sig.

He hasn't noticed yet, give him time~

By the way, I'm SURE Setsuna PM'ed him about the topic's revival.

Yoou Rang? I actually can't give "Healthy" Opposed opinion, it would be a fanboy's squealing...

Either way, only 3 more weeks left until English Dub returns!

i remembered why i watch the show. when its funny, it's pretty damn funny.

And Lelouche terrible? Can I ask how? He's not the greatest, but I wanna hear some healthy opposed opinion.

his evilness just grinds my gears. his complexity comes off as an absolute mess. and what he does at the very end of the show's run (i.e. where Adult Swim left off) is just absolutely ridiculous. no one's that noble. at least Light stayed evil to the very end.

also, Johnny Bosch.

100% [tornado fang]ing agreed. If it's humor you're after, just look at how absurd Suzaku's physical ability is. Or watch R2 and go in with the idea of ridiculing everything that comes into play after the third episode. XD

Ah, but that was the point. Lelouch was never supposed to be (and depending on who you ask, isn't) evil. He just has an extreme "ends justify means" state of mind. I want to explain more, but for some reason, my mind is blocking my thoughts terribly. XD

I'll try again later, or let someone else ape me on the explanation for the other side. (Also, agreed on Jonny Bosch. I half expected Lelouch to go Bankai & say "I'm a frog" throughout most of the dialogue when I watched the first episode on AS. XD)

[spoiler]You sure he's dead? 8D[/spoiler]

At least Lelouche didn't get killed by Rivaltz, the Geass equivalent of Matsuda. R2 managed to wrap up a decent enough finale to make me wish it hadn't ended, even if the rest of the season was a maddening TWEESTfest. Also I didn't find Lelouche a complex character at all: Just as planned + don't hurt Nunally + crush Britannia = Lelouche

Also, anyone following Nightmare of Nunnally? It's so bizarrely awesome, plus manly Zero.

I should be following NoN. I don't know why I kept on forgetting to. Also, note that I never said Lelouch was deep. I only hinted at interesting.

Also, agreed on Jonny Bosch. I half expected Lelouch to go Bankai & say "I'm a frog"

if Ledouche did say "I'm a frog," all would have been forgiven.

when i say Lelouche is complex, i mean he has too much going on for him. it's like taking every bit of Light and trying to fit in some human characteristics. things that just don't meld well to me. one or the other, man. Pick A Side, We're At War.

and i don't know how the hell anyone can deny that Lelouche is an evil little man. there are no good guys in that war. Lelouche is only less evil cause he has a sob story in his past.

i haven't seen the end of the show, mind you. i'm just going by what i've read. and by the sound of it, Emperor Lelouche is a stupid idea with an even stupider resolution. his sacrifice doesn't sound to be geniune.

Sora Kake Girl=Code Geass R3. Set around thousands of years from the end of R2. With Lelouch being imprisoned in a pyramid of sorts.

I thought the show was pretty cool for about the first half of the first season.  Now it's just okay.  Maybe they shouldn't have killed off Mao.

At least Lelouche didn't get killed by Rivaltz, the Geass equivalent of Matsuda.
I was thinking of Rivalz more as the Skeeter to Lelouche's Doug.

You best be trollin', [shadow runner].

Mao was an useless character that served his purpose in the first episode he appeared in. And actually should have died when those policemen shot him.

Yet he survived and manipulated Shirley into almost killing Lelouche. So, he wasn't that useless, he served a part.

That's why I said he served his purpose. But even then, he was useless, because this whole "Shirley wants to kill Lelouch" thing could have been done without him, and even with the same outcome. He was just useless and that's it.

Mao was needed in order to reveal important factors

-C.C. gave more than one person Geass
-Breaking a contract does not cancel the given ability
-Geass users are not immune to each other, or themselves
-Geass is only what LELOUCH calls it. Not what everyone else does.
-Lelouch is a [Top Spin]
-The effects of over using the geass
