That seemed to be mostly for dramatic effect, not that they had any actual conversation.

1. Lelouch did not call Suzaku by name.
2. There is no direct evidence that they were hearing each other's side of the conversation. The lines spoken by them work on their own as well. Simply put, it is ambiguous on whether or not they were actually communicating with each other during that scene.
3. Even if they did broadcast their conversation, voices can be distorted when spoken through an electronic system. Lelouch's voice through's Zero's mask is the most obvious example here. Otherwise, wouldn't you think Kallen would have recognised his voice first?

Cheers.

wow!!!!! code geass is back as it used to be for some reason the introduction of mao into the series made me lose interest in code geass and i actually started to hate the show but now omfg...this is great. i want to see wats goin to happen to suzaku next he better not die i love that guy in a not gay way. i was so surprised with this episode i never thought that the writters would do this.

im kind of worry for orange-kun i dont want villetta to end up with ougi. orangexvilletta 4life!!!!!!

-yay-lelouch is suffering, i dont hate him i just dislike him

[VetaMega]

so the people who started watching after episode 9 will know whats going on.

this is the price of being a TV show.

Well, having recap this frequent (every 8 episodes) is not normal for TV anime.
They had to throw in the recap in a hurry because they are behind on the schedule.
I'm a little worried about the end of the series, since they already have the next TV show scheduled to air after Code Geass, and extending the series wouldn't fare very well with the TV studio.
I'm glad the recaps aren't getting an episode number, but sponsors for the show that's slated to air after Code Geass ends (Darker than black) won't be very pleased with the situation.

I wonder if they are going to work it out with TBS/MBS, or if they're going to do one of those "one hour special double episode" week sometime in the future.

[SoldierOfDarkness]

Yes the waiting is the hard part.

I wonder though near the end of the episode after the battle, I wonder how Guilford and Darlton view Suzaku. Especially since Darlton was as much as surprised as Euphie that those 'idiot' reporters were critizing Suzaku for not pursuing.

But that rise a question would Suzu be able to kill him?
And of course the guard need to talk to him,
Would there be any other way?
Just open the cell and then kill him would be to boring for us "watchers".
Remeber the allmighty PLOT!

of course the guard would have to chit chat blah blah blah a bit, it happens in real world too (just look at Sadame execution vid)

140KB/s as we speak, can't wait

[quina]

well.. most likely episode 24+25 will be aired together judging from the spoiler interview.
They mentioned 23 being 'important grand' episode which provides build up towards exciting finals. So my wild guess is 24+25 on the same week :3 if they are really behind the scadule~

[ashlay]

well, at least the writing is done.

behind schedule with a finished script is better than nothing. ^_^

that's not a hair question, next

Lakshata's voice, hmm, i swear to god she sounds strangely similar to Shenhua's voice... maybe the seiyu was trying hard to sound "India-ish" ?

make me wonder that viettla is Indian as well @_@

also why nobody beat the crap out of Toudou to get info from him about whereabout of JLF? This sort of treatment is too human and contrast to Britannia philosophy @_@ (not like toudou will spill any info anyway)

also i found that the fight between suzaku and toudou after his unmasking pretty honorable ~ it wasnt like he was forced to fight but rather mutual agreement on both sides to "duel" (just like the good old times )

screw mech duel
Toudou : (to suzaku) : me and you outside right now! fight barehand 1 vs 1 like a man

Well by that point the JLF is dead. Toudo was basically it after the general was killed.

Now that you mention it, torturing for info aside, britannian soldiers being the racist pigs they are, you think Toudou would be a little roughed up just for their pleasure. Should at least have seen a few of them yelling "ya damn eleven" at him or something.

You'd only find the lower ranked soldiers doing something like that. People who don't understand what Pride is all about.

Todou is a man of pride, and it doesn't matter which side he's on - people in the battle field are going to respect him.

Well we see that in the reporters who apparently seem to be completely blind idiots when they critized Suzaku even though the Lancelot is in no condition to fight, what with no weapons, cockpit slashed opened, and his skates damaged....

And if there are any 'true' racist soldiers, their either dead or missing, what with the leaders Jeremiah MIA and Villete happily making bentoes for Oogui. I would guess that the majority of them were wiped out in Nanjki. Even then, even the Britannian army despises them.

Speaking of which, was there anything else in regards to CC's visit to China? Was Lelouch intending on getting their support? I mean they should be the major powerhouse in that region.

interesting image comming up somehow i feel that even before stepping outside suzaku would have ninja thrown toudou through the pub window

[kira-sama]

if suzaku vs todou i think toudou will won because toudou was his master "remember student can't past teacher"

She must've screwed up something since she's apologizing to Lulu.
