Code Geass R2 Turn 15 Rant & Review

Angry Suzaku Is One Hot Suzaku~

• Lulu hid behind Shinkirou (while thinking of a way to Geass Charles) to prevent direct eye contact with with Charles, afraid that he would be Geassed again. Haha…
• Lelouch’s way of trying to Geass Charles (”I, Lelouch vi Britannia order you to drop dead lol die!” (TRYING to is the keyword) is absolutely awesome! Reminds me of Kanda (DGM) when he faced Skin Boric
• CHARLES REALLY IS IMMORTAL!!!!! Goddammit, I knew it! I knew it! I knew it! His marking is on his palm instead of on the forehead. Geez… Not like it would ruin you already ruined image or something…
• VV was so cute when they were young, but I didn’t get to see little Charles. I blame Sunrise fully for obscuring little Charles from view. Or wait, was that Charles?
• Back to CC’s contract with Lulu and her wish… Her wish, is for her existence to end (?). I was annoyed to the extent where I got slack-jawed when CC said Lulu’s reason for living and whatnot were all twisted by her - that he had been fooled all this time. No shit. This is actually the same thing that the nun who gave young CC the power of Geass said to her when her Geass progressed to the point where the marking in the left eye spread to the other eye permanently. Young CC was annoyed that it’s been keeping her away from … her suitors… (I’d be annoyed by that eye too. Like of course!) and wanted to end the contract. And the nun… went all crazy and blurted out “You’ve been fooled!”. I was like O_o…
• C.C: “V.V… Did you like Marianne?” <<< Dun dun dun…. Can we shoot down the theory of VV hating Marianne now? He looked (and sounded) so sincere…
• Suzaku… didn’t get to drug Kallen. Phew… He was slapped (like many of us expected Kallen to do), which is REALLY good. Well, he pushed her down and tried to drug her, but then Kallen whined “Onii-chan”… Well, yay! Thank God the spoiler about him accidentally getting a refrain shot while struggling with Kallen didn’t come true. I’d be annoyed if he remembers Euphie at this point Suzaku just smashed the thing to the floor.
• Suzaku… is now conviced that Lulu IS Zero. He went to school looking all hot and bothered (squee!). No Rolo in sight, no Viletta, Geassed intelligent team telling him they didn’t know where Lelouch Lamperouge is… Of course he’d know right away something was wrong. I damn sure wuould too if I was in his shoes. Aha~ (Lloyd’s style)
• NUNNALLY IS THE ULTIMATE LIE-DETECTOR!!!! She can tell that people are lying if she holds their hands and hear them answer her questions. Har har har… She tried to do the same to Suzaku, but Suzaku retracted his hand REALLY fast before she could catch him lying. “
• Suzaku to Nunnally: “I won’t lie to you”… BIIIIIGG LIIEEE!!! Meh.
• Nunnally to Suzaku: “You’re the same as Onii-sama” <<< When he pulled his hand away.
• Nunnally to Romeyer: “The Governess (Governor-General)… is ME.” <<<< Another WIN factor of Turn 15~
• Nina’s Nuke has been tested… and proven effective. Schneizel and the rest of the team congratulated her. Well, I hate that the Nuke spoiler sounds like it’s becoming true.
• Schneizel to Nina: “You’re really a genius”. <<<< Dammit Schneizel, you just keep brainwashing the crazy girl!
• Viletta and Ougi met, had a talk, mainly Viletta asking him why would he save an officer (herself) of the Britannian army. Sayoko interrupted (well, Viletta was technically pointing the gun at Ougi), got into a duel with Viletta. Ougi tried to stop them, protected Viletta and fell down the cliff… Viletta went after him. (I so love OugiViletta!!!) To be continued, for this couple…
• Rolo freaked out. He finally noticed Lulu was nowhere to be found.
• Rolo fed the ‘This is Zero’s order’ and ‘This place is the Britannian secret base operation’ shit to the OoBK members, who are now having HUGE doubts about Zero.
• Jeremiah is one compassionate hottie man, and I’m a happy fangirl~
• NO CORNELIA!!!!!!! T____T
• Lulu to CC: “Your true wish… I know what it is.” <<<< Evil cliffhanger!
• CC REALLY LOST HER MEMORY!!! She became the girl she was before she became immortal.

Code Geass R2 Turn 14 Rant & Review

Is it possible to love Suzaku but wanting to torture him until he can no longer speak at the same time?

I’m at loss for words, and I can’t even comment properly on the sudden battle between Lulu plus some random OotBK members against the Geass Cult.

I mean…

HOW DARE SUZAKU FEEDS SOME BULLSHITS TO KALLEN THAT THE ONE WHO KILLED SHIRLEY WAS LELOUCH?!!

And get that refrain out of the way, you sneaky little @$#%TWAsdadr@#*!

Small conclusions/impressions:

• Rolo admitted to killing Shirley… Brave, kid. Really brave, or maybe I should say ‘thoughtless’ instead?
• I have to give Lulu lots of credits for managing to appear calm after Shirley’s death, unlike the mess Suzaku seemed to put himself in after Euphie died.
• When did Lulu actually have the set installed in front of the entrance? Even I thought he was still in Ashford O_o
• Is Suzaku completely evil, or is he completely desperate to go against Lulu? I love him and all, but for him to persuade Kallen this way… Feeding Kallen the bullshit that Lulu killed Shirley is one thing, but to drug her with refrain is another… WTF Suzaku?!!!
• I think we were wrong when we thought VV expected Jeremiah to go against him. Apparently, he was shocked to find Lelouch at the other end of the line when the call connected. And if his “Jeremiah, even you too…!!” means anything, then he really didn’t expect this.
• Took VV a while to notice the one in Vincent was Rolo.
• Charles’ “My son Lelouch! The time has come!’ comment now convinced me that the stage for the finale had been planned all along… Ugh.
• The little kids with Geass ability that we saw in the scans before is <3 They called Rolo ‘Rolo-oniichan’~ Now I really don’t want Rolo to die, though Lulu was ready to detonate Vincent in order to trap/kill VV. Too bad Rolo killed the kids~
• LOL at Toudou and Chiba in the bedroom ~__~
• CC’s apology to the cult members before destroying them, saying they were all in the mess now because of her ’sin’. Needs Turn 15 now!
• VV, with his hair in a mess, looks so much like Clovis.
• Bartley x Clovis should be made canon (j/k!)

Takes a deep breath to calm down…

Because of the Bird - Summary & Review

I’m really happy because my Sekai Ichi Hatsukoi and some other doujinshis are on their way. I’ll be getting them latest by this Friday, I think. And I’m in the process of scanning some doujinshis, but for the time being, I just want to rant about this Code Geass doujinshi which arrived in my mailbox yesterday. Why? Because it’s just so awesome!

The Japanese title for this doujinshi is written inside the book (Sono Tori no Sei De), and it’s 76 pages including cover. I was first drawn to this title because of the circle (Classic Milk+Peace and Alien) and the fact that Suzaku’s wearing his goddamn Knight of Rounds uniform. Pre-R2 stories are really interesting to read! Angst and dark romance, just the way I like it.

So, after being promoted to the 7th rank in the Knight of Rounds, (Lord) Suzaku became the talk of the palace because while he had Zero under his chains (literally and figuratively speaking), he had yet to kill him. People around him were talking, wondering why he didn’t kill Zero. Charles then summoned Suzaku and told him to do with Zero as he liked.

S: Do… what I like?
C: Kill him or let him live, it’s your choice.

Suzaku himself was shocked at the ‘order’ given to him, but returned to his room nonetheless. I find it intriguing that he kept Lelouch chained in his room at one of the corners. Eyes bound by bandages, hands and legs bound to metal chains hammered into the walls, Lelouch tried to eat the meal presented to him. Having just entered the room, Suzaku coldly told him where the tray was, “A bit more to the left.”

Code Geass R2 Turn 14 Extended Preview

I’m nursing my broken heart caused by the absence of Junjou Romantica with my other obsessions alongside some Junjou project I’m currently planning. I guess I’ll be stuck with angsting about CG until Sunrise fix the drama good. The preview kind of broke my heart with Lelouch’s monologue T__T

Get the Flash Player to see this player.

That better not be Kallen under the light, the one whom Nunnally was speaking to. I kind of recognise that dress from some scans I saw previously… But then, what the heck was she doing there in the first place?

Doesn’t V.V look more psychotic now? I always wonder what Charles and him had under their sleeves. Or more precisely, what V.V himself was planning when Charles wasn’t around. That, or I might have been reading too much into the plot when V.V obviously gets more screentime than Charles.

Code Geass R2 Turn 13 Rant & Review

As soon as this episode finished airing, I was left with my chopstick slacken in my hand, and tears in my eyes and mixed feelings. At the beginning, my internet connection was being so stupid that I felt so frustrated because I’ve been looking forward to this episode.

It started off with Shirley’s dream. The mask we see in the preview of the previous episode was a part of Shirley’s mind. She was getting paranoid with the rush of her returned memories. Shirley was so confused that she didn’t trust anyone. But she did remember the fact that Lelouch was indeed Zero who caused the death of her late father.

And then we were presented with Jeremiah killing off the Intelligence team stationed at Ashford in his search for Lelouch. Viletta and Rolo were alerted of his presence. Jeremiah found Sayoko, who flat out refused to tell him where Lelouch was. She would protect her Lelouch-sama, and got into a duel with Jeremiah.

Rolo tried to stop them, activating his Geass on Jeremiah to allow Sayoko to finish him off. However, Jeremiah got the better of Sayoko and stabbed her. At this point, Miracchin and I was like “Noooo! Don’t die Sayoko!!” because we really don’t want her dead! With Sayoko fallen, Rolo was left alone to deal with Jeremiah. He tried to Geass Jeremiah again, but Jeremiah’s Geass Canceler cancelled his Geass.

Obligatory pre-Code Geass R2 Turn 14 Rant

Was browsing through Animesuki and CG lj community, and couldn’t resist taking a peek at the more detailed summary for Turn 14. It wasn’t a summary. It was a freaking spoiler. A big one at that! As if the recent revelation of Emperor Charles being V.V’s twin brother (no thanks to the official site for giving out spoilers on regular basis) wasn’t mindraping shocking enough. In Turn 14…

Code Geass R2 Turn 12 - “Love Attack!”

So, the show ended 30 minutes ago. Since I’ll be watching some anime shows right when it airs, I’ll make a habit of reviewing or blogging about them as soon as I’m done watching from now onwards. Aaaannndd…. SPOILER ALERT!!!!

TURN 12 THOUGHTS & OVERVIEW
Despite the fact that I only got to watch half of this episode (due to some stupid broadcasting failure), I’m still left with a very dazed expression after the preview for the next Turn.

It’s Milly’s graduation event (卒業イベント） and she proposed the Cupid’s Day (キューピットの日）to celebrate.

Yes, Sayoko as Lelouch gave Milly an impression that the guy had been hiding some kind of physical prowess under his bikini/speedo sleeves. All the acrobatic moves… Oh dear. I’m kind of glad that Suzaku wasn’t there when Sayoko pulled all that stunt. Sayoko also blissfully destroyed Lelouch’s straightness further in this Turn. Sidetracked by sexy girls and ignoring them completely - normal people would think that Lelouch is obviously not straight XD

My darling Gino was surrounded by chirpy girls who hoped to get a piece of the Knight of Three.

And Anya…. OMBFG Anya… She freaking unleashed Mordred upon the school to search for Lelouch. I was like WTF girl! Don’t bring that killing machine into school grounds. Suzaku’s shock at being informed of Mordred’s appearance at Ashford was justified, because I would have been shocked too. Seriously! You’d normally only use that thing in combat or practice. Anybody would think that the school was under Order of the Black Knights’ attack or something. It happened before, after all.

It’s even funnier that Suzaku and Guilford actually made a mad dash, I mean, flew in their Knightmares to inspect the commotion only to find out that it’s Milly’s graduation ceremony.

The Ceremony (Cupid’s Day)
… ended very sweetly. Rivalz was a bit down, muffling “Are you really graduating, President?”. It made him look cute, really~ And while I don’t like Shirley all that much, it was sweet the way she thanked Milly for “everything”. And Suzaku even got out of Lancelot to congratulate her (he was too much in a rush that he was still wearing his Rounds uniform, sans the cape).

Milly ended up delivering weather casts on TV! I like her new hairstyle. She’s one of the female characters that I actually like in animes (along Kallen and a few others).

The Suspense
Orenji-kun appeared! His freaky orange (why the colour, Jeremiah?) Phantom-of-the-Opera-esque mask is like Zero’s. It opened up at the eyes, conveniently made so he could cast his Geass. I don’t know how far does the range of his Geass extend to, but it must have been pretty awesome (until I see the preview for next week).

Shirley, for the (insert numbers bigger than 2 here) time, got Geassed AGAIN. This time by Jeremiah. And the suspense? She remembered all the stuff she forgot:

“I remember… My father was killed by Zero… Lelouch.”

Enter the ending credits. Woe…　I went “CRAAAPP!!!!” at the last part. And to add to the cliche and dramatic-ness of the scene, it was raining. (Season 1, rain, soaked Shirley - ring a bell?)

The Confusion
When Anya was looking for Lelouch in her Mordred, she almost crashed into the library when she sensed him there. And I know it wasn’t my imagination when she said “There’s two Lelouch…?” in her usual monotonous way of speaking. Surely she would not be stupid enough to believe in somebody else’s craps that it’s just a part of a plan?

Thoughts on the Preview of Turn 13
Suzaku and Lelouch, along with Shirley (who called Suzaku in the first place) went out together. And hey, Suzaku and Lelouch were wearing the exact same clothes they wore in the first season. Red versus blue. Suzaku still had the sunglasses too. With Shirley walking in front, I’d say the two of them looked like they were on a date Sorry, yaoi fangirlism got the better of me ~_~

Jeremiah, it seems, will lose to Lelouch YET again. Oh Orenji-kun, when will you learn? Will you ever learn, by the way? That guy is the main character, for idiot’s sake. Don’t think you’ll get the better of him anytime soon. Gimme the Jeremiah Gottwald who adored his Lelouch-sama and Nunnally-sama back!! And gimme back my Suzaku who loved Lelouch as his darling friend!!

It’s only been 30 minutes after Turn 12 ended, and already I can’t wait for Turn 13 to air next week! Aahh~ I’ll update this post with screencaps and (hopefully) direct download links later Need to continue moving files @_@
