Code Geass Drama CD discussion

The song makes me wonder if there was supposed to be an ending that made it a little more obvious to both Kallen and C.C. that Lelouch was alive, like C.C. more obviously talking to the cart driver and Kallen getting a letter or something from Lelouch, just to let her know that he was still around.

Admittably, if he were still alive though, it's likely that he would want Kallen to be able to move forward w/o him. He's likely on some sort of quest associated w/ Geass OR simply needs to be in hiding from the world. That's not the life he would have for Kallen. He wanted both of them to return to their loved ones (his sister, her mother) and their friends at Ashford; he gave that up so that she wouldn't have to.

Still, IF he's alive AND Kallen finds out, you can bet she'll hunt him down to the ends of the earth.

I think that, depending on the part of the song, it refers to either one of them OR possibly both. The song was released the week of Kallen's kiss, but the pinky promise can't be ignored. It's kinda like how Kallen's song starts by thanking everyone, but moves on to Lelouch specifically.

youngde, signing off.

Spoiler for Regeneration lyrics:

沈黙主張する顔
A face insisting on silence
情熱隠したままで
concealing passion
押さえつけられて生きるのか
living weighted down
奇跡手に入れるには
to obtain these miracles
時に心捨てる
I throw my heart away
君の涙つらいけど
Though your tears are painful


暗闇がより深ければ
The darkness deepens
星はより光るだろう
The stars grow brighter
なら悪にでも
Even if I have to be evil
魂を引き替えても
Even if I have to sell my soul


世界が変わる　そのときまで
I will change the world, 'til that time
突き上げてく　炎の剣
Thrusting a sword of flame
進むべき 空の下で
I must move forward, beneath this sky
守る君のために
in order to protect you


修羅の道を行く者
the one who treads on this scene of carnage
二度と引き返せない
cannot turn back anymore
砕け散り灰になろうとも
even if I turn into powdered ashes


命限りあるから
because there is a limit to life
賭ける値打ちがある
(a life) worth betting on
つなぐ指をほどいても
even if you/I let go of our linked fingers (this seems to refer to a promise - yubikiri)
幸せが目に見えるなら
if happiness can be seen in the eyes
君に見せられるなら
if I can show it to you
地の果てまでも
even if I stand at the end of this world
闇の終わりに立とうと
stand on the edge of darkness

世界が変わる　その朝には
I will change the world
this morning
目を細めて空をみるだろう
eyes narrowed, look up to the skies
この腕に君と光
抱きしめるときまで
until the time I hold you and the light in this arms


世界が変わる　そのときまで
I will change the world, 'til that time
突き上げてく　炎の剣
Thrusting a sword of flame
進むべき 空の下で
I must move forward, beneath this sky
守る君のために
in order to protect you

Though the song may refer to Kallen, I think it's more directed at Nunnally, because of the pinky promise.

TO me it's obviously more to Nunnally. After all whatever he did was for Nunnally. And Lelouch made a pinky promise to Nunnally. Sorry it doesn't make sense if it's just for Kallen? What about other people he cared well?

What he did was initially for Nunnally. Then, it began to involve everyone else he cared about, especially when he thought Nunnally was dead.

Crap! I'm still looking for R2 SE4. I must!!!!!

Unless someone's willing to share it.

Shh, that might actually employ the logic they allegedly so highly covet.

Regeneration is about everyone, not Kallen.

Hey now, don't go knocking all Kalulu fans like that. I said the song was part for Nunally and part for Kallen (and yes other people as well).

The first verse to me seems to talk about Kallen (and as far as tears go, Kallen had them too when Lelouch basically told her to piss off in episode 19). The timing of the songs release also suggests that.

The second part with the pinky swear is about Nunnally. It seems to end more about all the people he cares for in general.

That's my take on it, and I think it's quite logical.

youngde, signing off.

And I'm saying it can be easily applied to the world he knows.

Tears don't need to be physically seen by the audience to be expressed. Who knows when this was written or recorded in comparison to release timing? No evidence. Moving on.

The second part with the pinky swear is about Nunnally. It seems to end more about all the people he cares for in general.

He made the pinky swear with Nunnally, but what the pinky swear's implications are in terms of his overall goal are much more broad.

That's my take on it, and I think it's quite logical.

And I'm inclined to disagree for my expressed reasons.

Listened to the R2 SE4, Track 2. Supposedly, Burai, Gekka and Zangetsu are the next guests on "Welcome Knigtmare-san! XP

............. How can the song be about EVERYONE, but not about Kallen??

I heard the next audio drama will be about Lloyd gathering the Knightmares for a meeting. I wonder if the Guren will be there. Also who will be the voice of the Knightmares? Maybe their pilots?

That sounds kind of dull. I'm thinking they may use the pilots voices.
I'm not sure if you heard the one that happened at the Kugarugi shrine, but it was the Emperor Charles VA who voiced the demon.

I'm just curious if the meeting will be the Britannian KMFs or all the KMFs.
I don't see why they wouldn't have all the KMFs. There was the audio drama that had pretty much every woman in the cast minus TainZi.

You got to wonder what their complaints the KMFs would have.

I don't think KMF are going to pull a transformer.

Isn't it about Lloyd gathering a meeting of the Knightmares and listening to their complaints. I doubt it will just be Lloyd will just be talking to himself.
I think it would be funny if having Kallen be the voice of the Guren and Suzaku the Lancelot.

I wonder how far it will go with the KMFs. Would it have the Shinkirou and ShenHu?

The KMFs do use their pilots' voices: Lancelot as Suzaku, Guren as Kallen, Gawain as Lelouch (Zero) + C.C. before it primarily becomes C.C.'s voice, Tristan as Gino, Mordred as a stuttering Anya, Shen Hu as a smooth talking Xingke, Siegfried as Jeremiah, Vincent as a deadpan sounding Rolo, and Shinkirou as Lelouch with a weird Kansai-ben accent.

Have you heard it, or are you just guessing?

Why would the Gawain be in this since it's a season one KMF?

I have heard both tracks, yes. And there was information beforehand that had several characters listed as the KMFs they pilot (aka Gawain was listed as being voiced by Lelouch and C.C.; Siegfried as Jeremiah).

Why not?
