If it was given the 50 episodes they wanted they could have given the series the depth, and amount of characters they wanted. Instead the second seaon was compacted, rushed, and way to many characters introduced to handle.

The KoR are flat characters that can be described by a couple of words Gino (friendly enemy), Anya (mysterious enemy), Luciano (Psychotic enemy), Bismarck (Noble enemy), Monica (cute enemy), Dorothea (Black enemy)

Xingke was stated to be as smart as Lelouch and then is reduced to the "guy whose defeated by the enemy to show how strong he is" Congragulations Xingke you are officially Chad from Bleach.

LOL at Xingke in hawaiian shirts XD and yeah, Lulucentrism is an issue, no doubth about it.

Back to C.C., the part that is rushed the most is, to me, her involvment in Charles plan. More than her remote past, I would have like to know how this kinda apathetic, cynical woman ever get involved in something that is, at least apparently, so fancifully idealistic at that time - or, on the other hand, which kind of person C.C. really was back there, and how much she's changed.

I wanna know how C.C. and Marianne met. xD

That's a good question. Hm... -ponders-

Used Can · 2008-12-03, 18:01

The problem with C.C.'s development is that there wasn't really too much to expand on. She had quite a good development in the first season, and all what was missing was the final touch.

Had Geass got a larger role in the story [as in, say, the Geass Order was an independent organisation, and new Code and Geass users (not related to the Emperor or Britannia) were introduced] her role could have been easily expanded.

Utau · 2008-12-04, 00:07

judging from the current disscusion at hand.. her real name is still unknown to all. And here i thought i could finally know her after a long time of not being able to check the CG thread. Darn you Sunrise!!

continue on..

Sonae · 2008-12-04, 18:17

So, any guesses at C.C.'s name?

-sigh- I wish they would give us a novel on C.C.'s past and on Geass.

But it wouldn't be canon

It will be if they officially declare it is.

Narona · 2008-12-05, 16:29

If her supposed name appears in a novel, we can still wait to see if someone from the staff, or Yukana, will eventually confirm it.

It doesn't mean that you can't post infos from the novels if you have a "good source"

Canon or not, It can still interest some people.

Sonae · 2008-12-05, 16:57

Yeah, but people seem a little "on edge" lately. It's better to wait for confirmation

Used Can · 2008-12-05, 18:21

It'd be quite pointless to reveal her name just like that. The again, it's not as if that'd matter any more.

Yeah. No one cares anymore.

Someone posted on some other thing that her name doesn't matter anymore because we know about her past. I somewhat agree. We know so much about her that we don't need her name.

Though the ones that write fanfiction would love to know so they no longer have to guess.

I feel similar.
I'm curious about what her real name is, yes, but I wanted it to be revealed in the anime. Everything else won't do much for me.
But as long as there won't be a third season with C.C. in it, I won't mind if the staff decides to at least satisfy my curiosity. ;P

gaoyuanyuan1 · 2008-12-05, 20:01

Her name maybe is not important but they decided not to reveal it to make fans go around "what is CC's real name?"

Yeah, and when they reveal it, no one will care anymore

the most annoying aspect of C.C's development in season 2 was that they didnt actually go into her past as much as they should have
we know she's been alive for hundreds of years but all we actually saw was
1)her time before getting the geass (before she was "C.C")
2)her time with marianne and charles
3)we hear (not see) about how she was once a part of the cult
and all of that is not well portrayed
in season 1 we see flashes about how she was hunted as a witch
i really wish they would go some more into that one
or go into more depth about some of her other contractors
there is far more potential that had not been used (considering that C.C's past is by far the most interesting of all the cast, out of the sheer size of it)
and they ended up skimping out on it
wish they would give us more info

Yeah. But it would take a while to explain. But I agree, we should know more, like...

- More when she had geass.
- More about her life before Geass
- If she knew/seen/met Lulu when he was a child.
- How she met Marianne
- Her role in history
- How the others she contracted treated her

There's so much they could go into. Those are the main things that interest me
