Well, symbolically yes, but literally I don't quite think so, I just used that as a counter to his point really

By dying his running away from actually rebuilding the world By actually running away he's well actually runs away and screws Suzaku. I hate Suzaku as much as the next guy but no one deserves what a living Lelouch did to Suzaku. If Lelouch treats 3 of the 4 closest people like complete shit, than I can't imagine what he would do to someone he doesn't like. |

You guys are missing the point. If Lelouch is actually dead, the ending is much more profound then if he is alive. If the creators of the show had any say in the ending, he is dead. The little touch with the driver at the end, that is for Sunrise to gauge interest in having the story continue. If there is enough, hey what do you know, that was him on the cart, and he is now immortal. Let's make an OVA!

Lelouch is Schrödinger Jesus. He may or may not have died for our sins, as long as nobody performs an autopsy.
Other clue that Lelouch is alive and out in the country: Orange is cultivating... oranges, instead of faithfully serving Lelouch's heir. Speaking of Orange, he was pretty bad ass, having his suit destroyed around him, but keeping going. |

your post makes me think of a certain point people who think that he is really dead because staying alive would be cowardly, are idiots it's kinda like how people think that suicide is cowardly, since you'd be running away from the world and all its problems...so for lelouche to stay alive (in secret) in order to keep an eye on the world, is the more responsible thing to do....dying doesn't make up for your sins....only doing something good..positive actions..can do that..and the only way lelouche would be able to do that is to still be alive in short, lelouche would only be a coward if he allowed himself to die..the harder thing to do than to die is to keep living with all the burdens of your sins on you..and the decision, or responsibility, to make up for them |

I do agree that he could have worked things out diplomatically eventually, but it's far less effective than the entire world united to defeat an oppressor and then riding on that unity after is slain. |

.........Wut to say about this trainwreck. I didn't really get it the first time so I had to rewatch. Was drowning in the Sanzu River when Nunnally cried. I don't really think Lelouch is alive nor is he dead, nor am I going to debate about the moral of it, I will simply accept this like a open ending.
Edit: Somehow it feels like Spice and Wolf in the end

I think the ending doesn't befit his death... if i was to write a lelocuh death ending it'd be something like Final Fantasy Tactics where the epilogue would be like:
LONG TIME later (100 years ??) showing a history text book in school that has all Lelouch's deeds and his efforts explained and so forth... or someone who would published all his deeds and so forth and such... that'd be a much better "death" ending... |

Hey, he's the guy who achieved world peace and your the guy whose... complaining about it, so I wonder which speaks out more in the end? All about the results they bring people, unless you've got something to bring to the table yourself I'm going to go with the world peace achiever here

What I don't understand is why he didn't take C.C.'s code. She didn't want to live, so is this really a good end for her? But she seems happy. Is this what Lelouch meant by making her smile before she died? I don't know why this would make her smile. She was even crying earlier. He changed the world and made it better. But is that what C.C. needed to be happy? I never thought that was what she needed. And it didn't seem like that was what Lelouch meant when he told her "I know your true wish now". I thought she wanted to be loved, and love someone. And now she did, but it was lost.
As much as I hate to say it, the ending and Lelouch sacrifice didn't feel like it gave me enough closure. Maybe there will be an extended ending on the DVD? Besides not knowing C.C.'s name, there were some other things that remained unexplained as well. The time when Lelouch Geass became permanent, Suzaku seemed as if he could see C.C. inside her Knightmare, or the green human shaped aura that was outside. She said something like "Can he see my..? Or is he also...?" Is he also what? And that green aura appeared in the first episode as well on the truck that contained C.C. I always thought that was Marianne. Lelouch also appeared as that aura when he entered the World of C. I guess maybe the writer decided to change some things in the story, so this part was left out and never explained. And I'm not sure how Nunnaly could see a vision of Lelouch and Suzaku's conversations when she touched his hand either. Isn't that something that C.C. could do by touching Lelouch? Maybe he had a Code after all...

Lelouch is likely to have V.V.'s code in order to have eternal life. It would be nice if he and C.C. could send a letter to Nunnally and Suzaku some time in the future.
Regarding Sayoko, she either went back to working for the Ashfords or decided to take the mantle in running the Shinozaki School. Xingke is likely in partial retirement due to his illness but still stays with the Tianzi as he vowed to always do. Speaking of which, was that Gino in the picture with the Tianzi? Did Nunnally become the Empress of Britannia?

Have a realistic peace instead of peace based on a lie. He screws Suzaku, he screws Kallen, he screws Nunally and what does Lelouch get? His having sex with C.C in some hayloft. He can't watch over the world since if he ever does return the Charade would be revealed. Living with his sins? Do you honestly think a man that treats his friends like shit would give a rats about the people he didn't like? |
