Hiya guys,
The first half of this post is regarding Code Geass R2 Episode 15. I have officially named this episode my favorite for the second season… so far. By a long shot. Why? Because first of all, it is CC-centric. Second of all, the viewers get to see Lelouch’s soft, caring, and heroic side. What a character! One episode, he is massacring innocent people and next episode, he is giving up immortality and power for CC?! Third reason- I don’t hate Suzaku as much anymore! Sure, I still hate him but not BURN IN HELL hate. Last reason- I am close to tears. It’s all because of one episode so it must be amazing as @#*$(#(#.
The following are SPOILERS. Do not read unless you want to be spoiled to death. I am serious this time. >>>>> Here is a list of what happen that totally twists everything around and with 11 episodes left to go:
1) The Emperor is immortal. Woot. We can’t kill him with a gun anymore! Fun fun fun!
2) CC’s wish… is to die. I saw that one coming from a mile away. The Emperor is going to grant her this wish… he is going to become more powerful? Did VV… die?
3) CC was once… human?! More than that, she was once a geass user. Her ability was for everyone to love her… and it saddened her because she couldn’t tell if they love her for realz or because of the Geass… how sad… then… the woman who gave her the Geass used her as a tool to kill herself…
4) CC loves Lelouch. That is why she doesn’t force Lelouch to kill her and take her immortality away. Lelouch finally realizes this and calls out for her. He tells her something (how convienient that we can’t hear it) and she changes her wish at the last minute. She doesn’t die!
5) Suzaku didn’t really use refrain on Kallen. She slapped him. He punched her. Wow. What a lovely pairing for those Kallen/Suzaku shippers. Anyways, I stopped hating Suzaku… for now.
6) Nina created a bomb. Oh joy! Oh boy! I hate her more!
7) CC woke up. Apparently, after Lelouch bombed that Sword place, he and CC returned back to where they were. CC lost her memories. She reverted back to a ten-year-old slave girl who could only count up to 10. What a conclusion! Oh my god! CC being… cute?! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
8 ) Nunnally told that woman off for trying to fool her. I love her lie detector! So cute. My respect for Nunnally went up by like 50%.
My theory: The reason why CC is back to being 10 is because her last wish is to be loved, therefore she goes back to that time period in her life in the ancient days when she wants it so badly that she is willing to make a contract for it. Now, she is not immortal anymore. Lelouch probably loses his geass. That means… my beautiful shipping of CC and Lelouch might happen after all! I am happy enough to know that CC loves him! I don’t care if it ends with Kallen/Lelouch anymore! CC LOVES HIMMMMM *dances* I have a really good love detector. It must be from all those stories I write. ^^;; Okay okay… maybe she didn’t really say she “loves” him but it’s implied right? Or is it just… Lelouch is a really important person to her… period. Sigh.
Now, on to Sweet Heart, apparently from talking to another friend of mine, there are a lot more shippings than I thought for my own story. How are you guys able to gather so much shippings from a cast of like 30 characters? Oh wait. I answered my own question didn’t I? I’ll post your list my friend. 
Canon pairings that won’t be changed: Rene/Rosa, Rai/Megami, Pamela/Money (joking Minnie!); Canon pairings that might change: KT/Lani (I hope will change!), Kevin/Jamie, and Jason/Pamela
Theresa’s choices (list from most likely to no chance of happening): KT, Carey, Jory, Jason, Jermaine, Quinn, Francis, Kevin, Alex, Victor (My thoughts: Really? Quinn before Francis? Lmao. And why are Alex and Victor there?! People and incest I swear. Is Jory that important?)
KT’s choices (list from most likely to no chance of happening): Theresa, Lani, Hien, Jamie, Pamela, Melissa, Quinn, Michie, Jenny, Claire (My thoughts: Why are all three of his sisters before Claire?! Why is Quinn rank lower than Melissa? Lmao.)
Carey’s choices (list from most likely to no chance of happening): Theresa, Hien, Pamela, Melissa, Quinn (My thoughts: At least you left incest out of this one. ^^;; I am glad you think Carey is such an important character. Also, why Quinn?)
Other shippings that are likely to happen besides canon: Francis/Melissa, Nick/Melissa (if this happens, you’re dead), Alex/Hien, Quinn/random boyfriend, Quinn/Anna, John/Pamela (My thoughts: Hmmmmmm)
Other shippings that are less likely to happen: Jermaine/Hien, Jason/Claire, Quinn/Pamela, Quinn/Claire, Quinn/Jamie, Kevin/Pamela (if you make this pairing happen, I’ll be really happy), Alex/Melissa, Francis/any girl but Melissa (My thoughts: That’s amusing. Some of those pairings are… wow.)
That’s my answer. ^_^ I hope the shippings you like. Wait. Which ones do you like exactly? o_O And what does everyone else think about these shippings? ^^
-Minnie
I had to watch this episode twice to catch everything that happened. hahah
Ok, I guess the C.C./Lelouch pairing is alright. Previous to this episode, I didn’t think it would have been possible because they were just accomplices and C.C. wasn’t exactly human (but now she is!). We also knew next to nothing about C.C., that’s why I was voting for Kallen/Lelouch. So now, I don’t really know…
Comment by Jennifer k — July 21, 2008 @ 1:06 am
and does Nunnally have any flaws? Why is she so perfect? :T
When Lelouch entered C.C.’s thoughts, did your sub refer to it as the “Thought Elevator”? LOL
Comment by Jennifer k — July 21, 2008 @ 1:11 am
You too Jen? Lmao! I watched some bits of it twice- the ones that did not include Viletta/Ohgi and Suzaku/Kallen.
I mean… there was a lot of foreshadowing with the CC/Lelouch pairing… but I did not think it had any possibility of happening because of CC’s personality- wise and sarcastic- it made her a very emotionless and unromantic person. Now, it works! I’m so happy!
However, I don’t like CC as a cute character… Lelouch can’t be with her if her memories don’t come back…
Don’t you love that slap Kallen gave Suzaku? And what are your thoughts on Suzaku now?
And yes! Thought elevator! Hahahah.
Comment by rosewisteria — July 21, 2008 @ 1:13 am
I don’t hate Suzaku as much now… but he’s still getting in the way of Lelouch’s plans! So annoying -_-
Why don’t you like C.C. as a cute character? I think the pairing could still work even if she doesn’t regain her memories… maybe. C.C. can now live life again normally, but with Lelouch now. Aren’t you happy?
Comment by Jennifer k — July 21, 2008 @ 1:31 am
I know that cute CC works better with Lulu and they can live a normal life as a normal couple but my main problem with CC being this way is that the reason she was so appealing to me as a character as well as being my favorite character in the anime is her sarcastic, loveless personality. Even if she doesn’t get to be with Lulu in the end, I want her to revert to how she was.
But I guess I can’t win either way huh?
The only way I think I can be really happy is to have CC lose her memories for like 2-3 episodes and learn stuff about being a normal person with Lulu’s help. She can learn about pizza, cheese-kun, love, and other stuff. Then, she regains her memories and remembers all those good times with Lulu (like Rollo), she decides that she really sees Lulu as more than an accomplice and live happily ever. Of course, that is really cheesy and won’t happen but that is what a CC/Lulu fan will want.
Suzaku really is annoying as a character. I want Kallen to be free… NOW! I don’t like her being imprisoned.
I like her in a Knightmare. ><
I am so scared of the emperor… and of Nina. They both need to disappear from the show! And… do you think Lulu lost his geass at the end of the episode? O___O And what is with that nuke bomb thingy? And… CC’s name might be revealed?! Ah… so many questions. ^^;;
Comment by rosewisteria — July 21, 2008 @ 1:48 am
haha, I totally agree. Kallen needs to get out of that big, puffy gown and get into her Knightmare… NOW
I think Lulu probably lost his Geass, now that C.C.’s wish has been granted. and the emperor can’t disappear from the show… he’s the antagonist. Without him Lelouch won’t have much else to do… and Code Geass would end. We don’t want that to happen! Nina on the other hand, can disappear.
Comment by Jennifer k — July 21, 2008 @ 2:13 am
Look at all the things the Black Knights have accomplished without Kallen- nothing. It doesn’t take an ace Knightmare pilot to massacre weaponless people in a laboratory. We need Kallen back and more action along with it. However, I keep hearing rumors about Kallen switching sides. That can’t be possible can it? I mean she’s so loyal to Zero…
Hahaha. It’s a good thing you agree with me on the Nina must disappear thing. ^^ She is such an awful character. I don’t like that one scene where she goes hating on poor Milly.
I am missing Lloyd. He’s so funny. Random thought.
How do you win against an immortal? o_O This just makes Lelouch’s mission all the more complicated and frustrating…
The emperor says he will do something terrible to Nunnally if Lelouch regains his memory or something… that is so not cool. >_<
Comment by rosewisteria — July 21, 2008 @ 2:22 am
Right now, the only reason why I think Kallen would switch sides is Shirley’s death. She, like Suzaku, thinks Lelouch killed Shirley for Japan/The Black Knights/himself. Of course, it’s a misunderstanding because it was Rollo who killed her, and Lelouch wouldn’t have done that… but they don’t know that. Kind of like Euphemia’s death. How problematic
Hehe, yeahhh. I thought of Lloyd when I was typing up my comment about Nina. Lloyd can replace Nina’s brains; Nina isn’t needed! Except Lloyd’s intentions may be different from Nina’s…
Hmmm… I don’t know! Lelouch will have something up his sleeve, I guess. and knowing Sunrise, there will be many twists and turns in the coming episodes. This is one of the reasons why I like Code Geass. I never know what to expect.
Comment by Jennifer k — July 21, 2008 @ 2:44 am
Oh my god. I hope that is not true! Kallen, you can’t fall for Suzaku’s stupid theories that has no base whatsoever! But you’re right. The only way I can see Kallen switch sides is because of a misunderstanding between her and Lelouch. Then again, she is fighting for Japan… not Lelouch… (although I like to think otherwise)… so maybe… Oh wait! I thought of something! Maybe she doesn’t switch sides to Suzaku’s but to the Black Knight’s if they choose to rebel against Zero? I mean a lot of the Black Knights are really upset at Zero for making them massacre innocent people. They might plan a rebellion and Kallen must choose… Black Knights or Zero? Tough choice. >_>
And about Euphie’s death. We see Cornelia in that preview with Lelouch in front of her with his mask off. What will she decide to do? Join forces with Lelouch because he’s her half-brother even after he killed Euphie? I don’t know about that. I think that Lelouch is holding her captive so she doesn’t run off to Schneizel and tell the Second Prince that Zero=Lelouch since she knows the secret after all. Heck, just de-geass her with Orange-kun and geass her again. Problem solved. ^^
I love Code Geass twists! Although they leave so many questions unanswered… like the fate of poor Nunnally… Lelouch better rescues his sister soon!
Comment by rosewisteria — July 21, 2008 @ 2:52 am
Choose Zerooooo, Kallen! He’s your lover~ : D
hehe
Maybe with Zero’s awesome rhetoric skills, he’ll be able to dissuade the Black Knights from rebelling… if it happens. Or he’ll just have to change his tactics and use diplomatic reasoning instead? But that would be no fun… there would be no killing or Knightmares in action.
I think Cornelia will join forces with Lelouch. I don’t remember if it was ep. 14 or 13, but didn’t Cornelia help Lelouch attack V.V. at some point?
Comment by Jennifer k — July 21, 2008 @ 3:11 am
Okay I’ll give Zero to Kallen and Lelouch to CC. Everyone is happy right? Oh wait. Both Kallen and CC know that Lelouch is Zero. Oh darn. Oh wait! CC doesn’t remember! It still works. XD
I can see that happening. ^_^ From what it looks like from the extended preview, he is going the diplomatic reasoning way with the Chinese people, but I dunno about the Black Knights. I hope Zero can pull through! He always have in the past right? That’s why I love him so much. ^^
Cornelia+Lelouch on the same team=Awesomeness. More so because I like Cornelia as a character, even if I love Schneizel more. His place in this anime is so weird… he’s not exactly father’s perfect son and will do everything for his father… he has a mind of his own… but he doesn’t exactly agree with the Black Knights and Lelouch either. I sense a three-way match here. Unless Schneizel takes over as the antagonist role of the show for a while after his father is trapped in that place? Maybe? I dunno. I like him a lot.
The Second Prince. Hate Nina though.
This anime better have a happy ending and without half the characters dying. =/ Though I am so happy over the Lelouch saying he knows CC’s true wish and he will fulfill it… <3 ^^
I have a feeling there is more to the Emperor than meets the eye… what if he turns out to be a misunderstood character and doing everything for the greater good? Oh no. I can only hate on Suzaku and Nina left. =/
Comment by rosewisteria — July 21, 2008 @ 3:21 am
hahaha
Lelouch/Zero is such a ladies man.
Schneizel is pretty cool. Except I’m not sure what he wants? Is he like a balance between the emperor and Zero? Maybe the show will end with all three cooperating? I don’t know.
“Though I am so happy over the Lelouch saying he knows CC’s true wish and he will fulfill it… <3 ^^”… by loving her as a true friend/family member and not taking Kallen’s place. : P
yeahyeah, at some points, I think of the emperor as a good guy. Some of his intentions are good– no lies, abolish the gods (whatever that may be), but then he also thinks that all men are not created equally therefore should not be treated equally, and he may hurt Nunnally, too!
Comment by Jennifer k — July 21, 2008 @ 3:48 am
Real Question- why am I staying up so late? XD Hahaha.
I think the show made it pretty clear that Lelouch needs a harem. I mean look at his choices: Shirley (not a possibility anymore), CC and Kallen (there will be a battle of flame wars between these two!), Milley (not engaged anymore), Kaguya (I can’t stop seeing her as a child though), and the ever popular Nunnally (just kidding). I saw this youtube video of Code Geass as a dating video game. The person who made it took a lot of time and effort- the video was very believable. I almost thought such a game existed. Haha.
Yeah. Schneizel is pretty cool (I am sorry Second Prince if I have been mispelling your name the entire time). I like how he didn’t take over pieces of Africa by force. My complaint is that he should stop hanging out with Nina… it’s really freaky.
What should happen but probably won’t – Schneizel and Lulu vs Emperor with an ending like this: Lulu lives happily ever after with Nunnally and CC/Kallen or both after the fall of Charles. Suzaku dies in battle. Nina dies because of her own bomb. Schneizel is the new emperor of Britannia. ^^;;
Lmao. XD I love how in season 1 CC/Lulu’s fans outnumbered Kalulu but now that season 2 has arrived, Kalulu has outnumbered CC/Lulu.
I must stick to my shipping to the very end even if it seemed so unlikely an episode ago…
I think the real reason the emperor seems like such a bad guy (besides the charles darwinism and the possibility of hurting Nunnally) is because he did nothing to save Marianne from her death. I say VV killed her. >_> Stupid VV… at least the writers of Code Geass declared him dead for reals.
Comment by rosewisteria — July 21, 2008 @ 4:05 am
wahaha
it’s cause you love talking to me so much -geasses you-
ok, that was really corny. sorry! this is what happens at 4 am in the morning, ok? D:
and gimme the link to the game! haha, i want to see/play~
hehe, what abour Rollo and Lelouch?

kidding. but they are cute pictures.
I agree with you, except instead of Suzaku dying, he should join Lelouch’s forces and they will be BFFLs. The end! ^_^
Ooh, really? I’ve always been a Kallen/Lulu fan. I admire your determination, but it’s going to be Kalen/Lulu. : DDDD
Hmm… didn’t C.C. say V.V. loved Marianne? If yes, why did he kill her? So many things we don’t know.
Ok, time for bed. I will reply when I wake up.
Comment by Jennifer k — July 21, 2008 @ 4:22 am
I need to go to sleep soon too. Actually, now is a good time. ^^;; Sorries! And hahahaha. CC’s geass. XD I wonder how often she uses it. And oh boy, how it must have sucked when that Euphie/Lulu moment happen to her and everyone loves her without her always-on geass.
OMG Rollo and Lelouch pics @_@ Cute… even though… Rollo just die in my good books thanks to that incident with him and Shirley…
Here is the url to the video of a Code Geass dating game:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P-SXg-15IMc
It looks so real doesn’t it? And I love seeing Suzaku and Lulu lipsynching. XD
It’s hard to see how Suzaku will join up with Lulu at this point but hey it might happen? You know what I think has a higher chance of happening? Anya joining Lelouch.
I am convinced that she will eventually. XD And maybe bring Gino along. He’s funny.
At least, the chances of CC and Lulu happening is a lot higher now. ^^;; I mean… before it was like 10%. Now, it has to be 50/50 with Kallen. *grins* I admire your determination too. ^_^
Question! What the heck is Lulu doing?! Why hasn’t he thought of a plan to rescue Kallen yet? Why has he completely forgotten about her despite her saving his ass so many times on the battle field? According to previews, he’s thinking of a plan to rescue Nunnally! He better Kallen out at the same time! Or else… >a Kallen fan<
Yeah… if he loved her… why would he kill her?! You’re right! It’s time to blame Charles again! VV must be innocent! Maybe… maybe not… I don’t know. I don’t like VV very much in the first place. XD ^^;;
Sleep time for moi ~
Comment by rosewisteria — July 21, 2008 @ 4:54 am
Good morning/afternoon!
Well, I think C.C. used her geass enough times that she couldn’t turn it off, so everyone loved her all the time. I don’t remember the Euphemia/Lelouch moment you’re talking about…
I’ll still give a chance for Rollo to redeem himself, Suzaku too. He can’t help but murder people without a second thought since he’s done it so many times before. If he changes, then I forgive him. :3
Ooh, woww. I wish I could read the Japanese on the video. Oh, well. haha
I also think Anya and Gino will probably join Zero eventually. Anya already has some kind of clue that Lelouch is a prince, and maybe that will somehow sway her to the other side? I dunno.
To Lelouch, Nunnally goes before everyone else. That’s why he left the final Black Knights battle in season one to save Nunnally. But, he should also save Kallen at the same time… or Kallen save and get herself out. But she doesn’t have the brains to do that, only brawn and strength (with her Knightmare). Yeahhhhh. >is a Kallen fan too, if you couldn’t tell< : D
See, see. This is why the Kallen/Lulu pairing works.
(Lelouch = Brains) + (Kallen = Brawn) = perfect couple!
Comment by Jennifer k — July 21, 2008 @ 2:22 pm
Good morning/afternoon to you too Jen!
The Euphie/Lelouch moment was when he went “let’s massacre all the Japanese people” in a joking manner and then his geass turned on all the time and bam- the tragic incident and Euphie’s death. Something like that happened to CC and so everyone loved her all the time.
Although I don’t like Rollo, I can see how he can redeem himself. Everyone’s like “DIE ROLLO” in that episode where he has on that bomb on his Knightmare? Well, I for one, think that if Rollo seriously does die, he will not die anytime soon. I was one of those people who knew that he won’t die in that episode. I have idea if he will die or not but it will be closer to the end than now. Also, VV is the one who gave the geass to Rollo. Now, that VV is dead, does that mean… Rollo has no more geass? No more use? Throw away rag?!
Suzaku will only redeem himself in my eyes if he joins Lelouch. Nothing else works. Heck, I rewatched the episode and started hating Suzaku again. He did not using the refrain on Kallen because he had a guilty conscience. He stopped because he didn’t want to “be like Zero” not because he cared for Kallen. Stupid Suzaku… can’t you remember that she was once your friend?! You and Nina should jump off a cliff together…
I want to read the Japanese too. XD Apparently, you can date Orange-kun. *hearts in eyes* Joking. ^^;;
It will be so awesome if Anya and Gino join Zero, more so when it comes to Anya. I love both of them even if they are working for the Emperor and I hope they be on the hero’s side. What I am curious about is… if Anya has anything to do with Lelouch, Nunnally, and Marianne… it seems like it to me. ^^;; And I am guessing that Gino will do something so cool in the future that we’ll all go “wow”.
Hahahah. I can see Kallen getting herself out. That’ll be cool. Something like this: “Come here,” Kallen calls to random soldier. He comes and opens the door. She kicks him and gets out.
Lmao. That won’t happen but Kallen might actually get herself out if Suzaku is occupied with other matters. I mean… the only person who can stand up to Kallen strength-wise and such is Suzaku. And without him around, Kallen can find a way out of that prison. Nunnally better protects her until then. =/ And yes, I know Lelouch and Kallen make a good couple. XD That’s why I sort of like the pairing. But I like the understanding between old CC and Lulu more. Maybe I am just a sucker for two people who can get back at each other in a witty way. I always have a thing for couples who don’t get along…. ^^;;;;
Moe CC next episode… it’s going to be hilarious. ^_^
Comment by rosewisteria — July 21, 2008 @ 2:56 pm
Ohh, I know what you mean now. I was just confused because I wasn’t sure how that related to C.C.
If Rollo doesn’t have his geass anymore, then Lelouch doesn’t either, and Mao too. Anyone else we’re forgetting? I hope Lelouch becomes kinder to Rollo if they both lose their geass… and not treat him like a throw away rag. :<
Yeah, same here. Suzaku will only be forgiven if he joins Lelouch.
HAHAHA, why do people still refer to him as Orange-kun? He’s on Lelouch’s side now, so he deserves his proper name… but I’ve forgotten what his real name is. XD;
Wow, I think we’ve exhausted this topic. I can’t wait for the next episode.
Oh, and rumors are that Euphemia will be brought back to life? Have you heard of this?
Comment by Jennifer k — July 21, 2008 @ 3:28 pm
Sorry that I did not make it clear. ^^;;
The Emperor also lost his geass since he is immortal now! Wow. A show call Code Geass and no one has geass anymore? *blinks* I don’t think the producers/Sun Rise will let that happen will they? I can’t see them allowing Lelouch to be immortal either. I mean… CC didn’t want to pass on her immortality to Lelouch… so her selflessness will go to waste if he becomes immortal. That’s my two-cents.
I think his real name is Jeremiah. And I think we will see his Geass canceling abilities next episode with Cornelia I believe. Orange-kun sounds awesome though. ^^;;
I heard a lot of rumors and out of all of them, 30% have happened. That’s not very good percentage to me. ^^;; I don’t think they will bring Euphemia back to life. I can see them come back as a hallunication/in a dream though. If they really do bring Euphemia back, please bring back Shirley too. ^_^
And yeah, we’ve been talking way too much on one episode. Hahaha. ^^ I should go finish typing that SH chapter… Where are you on SH btw?
Jen, you should get MSN. ^.^
Comment by rosewisteria — July 21, 2008 @ 3:45 pm
No, I don’t think Lelouch will become immortal. I think this show will have a happy ending! I just don’t know how he’s going to get rid of the emperor…
oh, yeahh. His name is Jeremiah. hahah
I’m on Chapter 6 of SH. I haven’t even gotten to the main plot yet XD;
Minh, you should get on AIM. ^.^
Comment by Jennifer k — July 21, 2008 @ 4:06 pm
Yeah. Me too. I cannot stand another Death Note ending. >_< I hope his immortality get tricked from him. XP
I don’t even know if SH has a plot. XD Does it? The whole story is about how first impressions tend to fool people… so…
Fine. I’ll get on AIM. XD
