AnimeHistory is a very nice place. On it, I also loved to read Code Geass Kaio's articles there. I miss them . I was used to go read them every week ^^

I read your articles and I added your link. As I said in the description, you do a great work with the images before writting your impressions. Good Job

Well he is called Master Ion because his title is Fon Master Ion and he is the leader of the Order of Lorelei. We have seen how the score dictate even the decisions of a nation's ruler in that King Ingobert was sending off the Tertiary heir to the throne to a potentially dangerous place based on the writings on a rock. At Ion's word he can deny a country readings of the score so he holds tremendous political power in the world.

Regardless though, Ion does have command of some extremely powerful fonic artes as we saw, it is just that his health prevents him from making use of them in battle.

Well it is not really poking fun at Ion because he is about as dangerous as a new born puppy. It is mainly his disposition that makes him so harmless though. I mean Hypothetically speaking if say Ion had Luke's powers and the ability to control it as well as a body that is completely healthy he would still be about as harmless as a puppy because he would not use that power against someone else. That is just the way he is.

But anyways, I understand what you mean. I believe friendship can lead to love eventually. Hehe.

I see the evidence and I see how much Natalia cares for Luke in the game but it's so much more apparent when it's animated on screen I guess. They add a lot of extra scenes for Natalia which makes her even more loveable. I am one of those people who are overjoyed to find Natalia appearing in Episode 1 off the bat. It proves that she knows Luke before Tear and Anise. I can only hope they put more Natalia/Anise scenes because that was amusing.
I am just saying, that the real connection between Natalia and Guy is their relationship with Luke and the feelings they have for him. Natalia being in love with him and Guy as Luke's best friend.

Well yeah and I also think that the anime toned down Natalia's snotty attitude somewhat as well. Not that she was as aggravating as Luke's "I am more important then thou" attitude he has adopted. There are also extra scenes with Jade that I liked as well that if you know what to look for you can tell that Jade was actually showing signs of concern.

True that with that disposition might as well not give him too much power. Since then he'd have to deal with people making a fuss about him not using his power when he could. But yeah I think the newborn puppy is a good way to describe Ion. Though if he had a healthy body and thus able to use that power effectively he may have turned out differently personality wise.

Has it been mentioned in the anime that Ion has an unhealthy body? If it has, then I missed that point.

Well Ion does wield tremendous power as the leader of the Order of Lorelei. Not pure physical power but more of a political kind but it is still a huge power that he does not excerise a whole lot of.

Well in the game we really do not see much more about her character until later where as in the anime we see more of her feelings towards Luke and it does help to soften that whole princess attitude she has.

Ion's inability to be useful is not due to health, it's due to flat-out not having the strength. It's comparable to the difference between being bed-ridden with the flu and not having enough iron in your diet (which causes exhaustion at an increased rate).

Simply put, Ion is a political leader; not a war general. His high political standing allows him to use powerful spells such as the Daathic Fonic Artes seen in episode 2, but he simply isn't strong enough to use them without consequence.

I know that Ion is mainly a political and symbolic leader and that is where his main strength lies, which was pointed out already. We were talking in a hypothetical sense that had Ion been able to use a great power freely he still would not because his personality is one where he is completely harmless.

I was more responding to sentiments like this. I should've been more specific. And maybe I should stop being so late to the conversation.

Though on the positive he might be able to avoid getting kidnapped all the time . One thing trying to kidnap someone who appears helpless another to kidnap someone that you know can back it up. Even if anyone that knows him would admit he probably wouldn't do much. But in the end he's just the guy who is helping to get things going by getting captured.

Since I forgot to I'll now give Largo some credit for surviving getting impaled . All they need is to spring Arietta from the cage and they'll be back in full force. Though since we haven't seen her in a while they might have already gotten her out of there.
