The main difference, or rather one of them, is Lelouch didn't really want to die until near the end of the story and most of the supporting cast survived. I'd hardly call this a repetition when the situation is far from identical.
Conversely, I'm thinking that there's a chance Akito himself might be convinced not to die, one way or another, since they've already played that card too early. You'd think Leila could be the person to change his mind. Still, at this point I do expect most of the other characters to die in battle anyway.
