until season 2 comes along
with suzaku becoming a determined realist as well, who only has a different GOAL then lelouch and kallen
instead of waiting for the SYSTEM to change
he wants to become the guy who rules japna and change the system HIMSELF

and i rather think that THIS level of similarity is rather restricted to kallen and suzaku (and to some degree, lelouch and suzaku)
everyone else seem to be fighting for the logical side for them to fight on
they are both idealistic (albiet with different ideals) and both set in their own ways about how to make life better for the japanese people (which lelouch cares about less)
revolution vs acceptance (which is nicely mirrored in their final battle speeches)

thats why the island episode between them doesnt end in the same way that the gundam ones do (athuran and cagalli, shin and steller, alleluyjia and mari, (with the two reaching an understanding of some kind and usually becoming lovers afterwards)
they arent simply on different sides, they represent different world views
