Suzaku might join Lelocuch. He is repeating "Zero is evil , I hate him , bleeeh , he must die, bleeeeeh."
If you look at some previous gundams (and other anime), you'll notice that 2 characters with extreme hate toward each other and quotes like the one above , end up teaming up (if one of them doesnt look cool or has extremly overpowered robot , that one dies). One of them sees his fatal mistake , and they join forces , living happily ever after. |

Oh, and by the way and for those who are puzzled, Sayoko's mention of Lelouch being an 'A-type man' refers to this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japanes...of_personality

About Nina: why isn't she afraid of Rivalz? After all, he is an Eleven too (he says so in the first episode - "...Would you like to play against Eleven then? We're different..." - and it's not a translation mistake, he says 俺ら. (And that's why he works part-time)

If he's serving under Euphie, I doubt she'll force anything major on him. Cornelia only assigned him that job because she wanted to know if she could trust him, ie. Fumi but at this point she pretty much should now so she wouldn't force him. Plus we don't know much of Suzaku's past. You wouldn't have to agree with him but the understanding part is another matter much as the same way with Lelouch. |

Plus, Darlton pointed out to Suzaku that Cornelia still had doubts about using people like him, which makes sense since he's japanese and the son of the former prime minister. That and he told Suzaku to specifically execute the remaining soldiers once the mission was over. The other soldiers obviously got the same orders but Darlton was giving Suzaku the details that he will have to do the same thing as well. "Show your loyalty lieutenant, you stand for a promotion so do your best." in which Lloyd pointed out if it was a fumie and Lloyd is NOT an idiot, he probably knows more than he lets go. So I don't know what else that would mean unless the subs were completely wrong and Darlton said something else. |

Shinjuku, Shibuya, the ghettos, anytime Zero is involved.
It's just that I disagree with your statement that Cornelia only gave him that job to see if she could test him. It was probably something extra, and that they probably needed Lancelot if Zero/Guren showed up. But then Darlton probably thought Suzaku looked like a bit of an oblivious idiot and tried to motivate him with prospects of a promotion while hinting at what would happen if he failed.

Well she is hell bent on avenging Clovis though lately as I've pointed out she hasn't done any operations in capturing him.

1 - It's a show 2 - It's for entertainment 3 - It's not suppose to have any deeper meaning or hidden words that have to be deciphered. You have a lot of probably's there. Your perspective is interesting but you seemed to have warped that scene for yourself so you can bash Suzaku(Darlton probably thinks he's an idiot so he does something to motivate him, what does that have to do with the scene?). Given Darlton's and Guilford's loyalty and dedication to Cornelia, why would they go under the table and promote or use people like Suzaku without her consent? If they intended to use lancelot to handle Zero then why did Cornelia looked surprised, questioning where the hell did Zero get the information? That and Lancelot was sent to the other side of the docks and away from them, the wisest move would've been to keep Lancelot as a reserve unit just in case if Zero did popped up. |

Shrugs, in all honesty, do you think Darlton has a very high opinion of 11s? He's a britainnian, he's a knight to a princess and seems very gruff. I'm sure he thought Suzaku was an idiot *ie. not as bright as a full brit* but again, this is subjective to different povs. My pov is that most brits look down numbers, so I tend to colour brits in this light unless shown otherwise.
And Darlton never said Suzaku, he just said it's a chance. Imo, he's just dangling a carrot in front of Suzaku at this point, baiting him. But you're probably right that he's just there to test his loyalty or further test out the lancelot. Otoh, Cornelia and Zero both need to start planning contingency plans. Cornelia never seems to plan 'what if Zero shows up' except for the first time, and Lulu never plans 'What if Lancelot shows up'. Strange for such strategic planners, lol.

teh ultimate plan to defeat Lancelot: if you watched Pokemon , you know Team Rocket and their holes. Plan is simple , dig a hole in the battlefield. Put lots of exploding stuff in the hole. Burry the hole so it cant be seen. Put yourself in this position
Lancelot --> hole Lelouch Blow up Lancelot. Ultimate strategy that works without fail. If he can trick a mind reader , I'm sure he can think of such a simple tactic. |

Yeah, that crossed my mind, too. It seems like a sound plan, but you have to be a pretty good actor to pull that. I mean, one drooling man can believe you but Karen, Zero and all the rest, that'll be a feat. Not to mention that she might be exposed immediately should Zero try Geassing her again.

boy howdy seems like every one and his dad is watching this one. To be frank i'm a little surprised that Code Geass is having such a long (yet wierd) run. These late night otaku shows don't normally run that long, and it's ratings are well just okay. However, it's dominating anime mag fan polls so the fanbase must be VERY VERY dedicated. Prolly is bringing bandai a buttload of merch profits too. (I haven't even looked at all of the posts for it on 2ch).

There is the usual fare with merchandise (e.g. PVC Kallen), but I don't see Bandai making much more effort at marketing than anyone else. I am sure there must be some plan for Knightmare model kit releases somewhere, but the person in charge might be in a coma or something... I am aware that Bandai's capacity to produce and saturate the market with merchandise is legendary. And that logically Code Geass' current popularity by all means should means the said merchandise could move quickly. But just as with the Suzumiya Haruhi TV series, there is a distinct lack of merchandise for Code Geass. Bandai either didn't expect the series to be that popular due to its time slot and thus was caught on the backfoot with merchandise design, or they intentionally don't want to push for it too hard. (Speculation) Why wouldn't Bandai want to push Code Geass too hard? Well, they don't really know if Code Geass would have lasting appeal. If Code Geass gets drowned out by a later flasher show soon after it ends, flooding the market with Glascows might not be a good idea. The series has a complete script up to the end of the season, but even the director admit he is uneasy about how the audience will receive it. (It's apparently expected to upset some people.) And to REALLY have a full Bandai-style market flood, they would probably want 50+ episodes to work with. But we don't even know if 1. If there is even going to be a second season. and 2. If made, would it be any good. And just as a major tabloid-sized speculation, I wonder if Bandai is worried a successful Code Geass would steal business from their bread-and-butter Gundam division... :P
