In this series, an Emperor called Lelouch seized the throne and knowingly becomes a tyrant, killing a whole load of people for the good of humanity in the long run, something he calls the "Zero Requiem". He dies willingly and with full knowledge of his death, knowing precisely how he was going to die and with knowledge that his death would provide the best chance for the future of humanity.

Coincidence? Perhaps!

Actually it does not matter. At the end of the day, Lelouch died for our sins. ALL HAIL LELOUCH!
Way to utterly cheapen of the the greatest books ever made and perhaps the greatest fictional character to ever exist with Lelouch. In simple terms there are thousands of stories like this but the little details are what makes story great. Do you know how many Messiah-Savior-Martyr myths are? Thousands but the best sounding one is Jesus, that is why Christ is big and Mithra is not.
