Well, it would be too hard to make other kind of end for her. Lelouch was too sunk in his own abyss to not drag people down. Shirley was the rope that could make him get back, but she couldn't stand his weight and eventually got cut.

It was obvious? Well, maybe... But just because Lelouch was Lelouch. To make something else, only if they changed the way of the character or the series itself. It was obvious because there wasn't another kind of possibility, hehe.

About the seinen, humm... I'm with Sol in this one. To me, Code Geass was a shonen anime with a little bit of seinen... And nothing else. Thank god.
