a full on explantion about how his death is only the beginning
famus last words
and a whole "dying in the arms of your loved ones" shtick
i dont think i have ever seen a more definitive death scene in my life

and yet people say that it looks like its an open ending ?
Let's see... we have immortals (and Charles was touching Lelouch when he disappeared)... Nunally gets strange flashbacks... C.C. is dragging a crane around instead of a chess piece (not that that's prove or anything, but if it had been the black king, the ending wouldn't look open to me anymore xD), and she randomly talks to Lelouch.
The latter was bound to get fans speculating.
And when I watched it for the first time, I couldn't help but feel that the ending left a loophole on purpose. I secretly blame Kaori Yuki - I've read too many of her open endings.
