It should have been fairly obvious to at least half the people at the scene.

Nunnally, Kallen, and Toudou know. The Black Knights who knew who zero was, most likely know, with Kaguya leading the pact. Other than that, everyone else who is alive doesn't know. Though I hope Nunnally slaps Ougi for being such a dipshit. Ougi is now, my number 1 least liked character.

Charles and Marianna said that they use Lelouch because of CC. What I don't get is y Lelouch? what so special about him? couldn't she use other people for her death wish. She protected him in stage 1 also in a serious way "don't kill him"

They used him as a lure. They knew the only place Lelouch could of gotten the Geass would of been from V.V. or C.C. Since V.V. knew he didn't do it the rest was easy to figure out.

They put Lelouch back at Ashford and under watch in an attempt to grab C.C., because their plan couldn't happen without both Codes.

He was basically their only connection to C.C. at the time.

who owns the rights to Code Geass?

RM-FAN · 2008-10-05, 00:06

I know that this question is some pointless, but, after a week and after of see two times the last episode...why the mask that used Suzaku as Zero is the old version of the first season?

i dont know but that mask comparate with the R2 version is some crap.

even more, that old mask was destruyed, and Lelouch still conservate the other mask after of scape in the episode 19. the last time that he use it was in the episode 20, why this never back?

From what I can see, the mask has always remained the same, be it in season 1 or R2.

We'd need to check with a lawyer.

But Taniguchi and Okouchi appear in the credits for both seasons as the "Original Creators", in addition to their other staff positions as director and writer, so at the very least that seems to indicate they possess some of the rights.

Anything more specific than that...I don't know.

I think the best answer you can get is Sunrise. I'd like to know the size of the team working on this.

If we want to blindly speculate (or extrapolate, really), until a more specific answer comes along...perhaps Sunrise owns the "Code Geass" brand name, but maybe the two "original creators" own the rights to the story and the related characters they came up with. Again, this is probably a hard thing to find out, unless it's been stated in an interview, without looking at the legal paperwork involved.

I think sunrise owns all the rights. Same as the creators of videogames. For instance:

Miyamoto created zelda but nintendo owns all the rights on it

Kojima created MGS, but konami owns all the rights on it (apparently) at least till the creation of kojima's company (but even so, Konami owns a part of his company), so before MGS3

Those are valid examples, but again...without knowing the specifics for each individual case, they might or might not apply.

Some creators do retain enough rights to get royalty payments and/or exercise certain creative control over their creations, it's all up to the kind of contract that exists between the parties. Not all contracts are identical, even in the same industry, let alone when comparing anime and videogames.

In the cases of Kojima and Miyamoto, their contracts with their respective companies are probably much older than the ones in question here, all the way back to the original Metal Gear, Super Mario Bros. or Zelda games. Same goes for Tomino and the original Gundam, for instance.

Still, we are all just providing opinions.

So what was changed in the script that the final product of R2 turned out to be convoluted? Not that it was bad but compared with season the story just got lost on me.

Knight · 2008-10-06, 04:22

What's the name of the BGM played when Lelouch, Suzaku, and C.C. were talking in the garden just before the Knight of Rounds attacked in episode 22?

Pure Feelings. Track 18 from R2 OST2. A very beautiful BGM

Tormenk · 2008-10-09, 08:12

Strygwyr · 2008-10-09, 16:35
