CC's true wish was to be loved, not forcefully in a romantic way, but to have people who cared about her, just like said ChiiChii to lelouch "I'd like to have...tomodachi" By showing her kindness, Lelouch fulfilled her true wish; She was even able to discover she was still human thanks to him, It's not really an answer to the promise "i'll make you smile" But lelouch never fulfilled his promises xD In a way, she is going to smile before her death (but will she die one day ?) since she can now enjoy her life. About Mao, well...it's nothing new, we already knew she left him. After, the way to judge this is up to everyone; Some people will think CC got her reasons, others will see her as a selfish girl. But that's nothing new so I have an hard time to answer with this profile screw the show to some people -_-

This would work if she didn't have immortality she'll still witness the loss of the one she loves until the end of time and she may once again become the same person she was before meeting Lelouch.

But that was the point of the 'promise' this time. It was a human one, people get screwed in the "human" world, not everything works according to the plan. This is exactly what made C.C feel like a real person again, apart from everything else Lelouch "gave" her. {directly // indirectly} ETA: Mahakala, there can be a lot of "what if" in a kinda open ending like this. But in the end, C.C was smiling so, we might wanna give her the benefit of the doubt. |

It's not a matter of not liking what you are told, or saying that a viewer's opinion has much weight that the director's one, it's just all this bombing of information we have here that in a way, might kill the magic. At least, about some things - like Lelouch's death and such - it partially did for me. Last edited by Levy; 2008-12-17 at 14:53. |

But that's no suprise. xD Quote:
Well, she did care, but not enough. I still wouldn't say Mao was exactly like her old self, though. But since that's really a matter of interpretations, I won't go into this now. Maybe another time.

When I saw C.C's profile, I was agreement with it. I'll admit I didn't see her as a equal to Lelouch until I saw it. And it does makes sense.

Ultimatly C.C. wanted to die more than she wanted a lover, and ofc. Mao wasn't going to kill her, so she left. But didn't kill him because of whatever affection she still had for him... It didn't really end well for either of them... We have to remember though that C.C. was never really the most moral character on the show. Both her creating and killing mao were selfish actions, which I don't think she ever denied. It makes me wonder about C.C. post episode 25. She seemed to 'moral up' some after all her experiances with Lulu. Somehow I can't imagine her setting off once again to find a sucker to kill her. Is her fate to be the one to carry immortality for all time? |

And lets be honest, the ending arcs of R2 was so rushed and poorly paced, without some of the side materials coming out to clarify certain things the story feels incomplete and rushed. It still does mind you, with all the things that were dropped, like Suzaku's alleged connection to Geass but atleast we have some information to cover what the series could not. Well if the director and the production staff chose to reveal this information, you cannot stick your head in the sand because you do not like it or that it "ruins" the magic for you. |

She left Mao because she thought that was the best course of action at the time. She realized that she was destroying him, and thought that leaving him might sort him back out. When Mao showed up again, she saw that what she did was wrong (and Lelouch calls her a monster for her apparent selfishness of leaving Mao). She went to meet him at the carnival park to do what she now realizes she should have done all those years ago: put him out of his maniacal misery. However, she couldn't do it, it would be like a mother shooting her own son. By the time Lelouch defeats Mao, CC had built up the strength to finally do what should have been done years ago, and kills him.
I don't believe CC left Mao because she was being selfish, she just thought she was doing the right thing. |

I agree with most of what you said.. but it still doesn't change the fact that at one point C.C did love Mao... she said it.... that why I think she did it out of care or love so that's why I said there is inconsistency in R2 Ya, I guess.. or maybe we will see in the sequel!!
