He's not gonna win with a bunch of hopeless zombies, a fangirl, and Dumbass. He's gonna need Kallen, Ougi, Lee, Rollo (maybe), plus whoever else decides to help him with them knowing the stakes flat out. People to watch behind while he stays on the path ahead. The Order will work with Japan, but he'll need more than soldiers against the Emperor. |

The only real plus for Kallen in episode 26 is her line "but those without power must tolerate. Even if justice is on our side", since it at least shows she understands where Lelouch was coming from after all. (compared to her slapping him in episode 9 for saying basically the same thing. ) Still, that's not love, understanding is just a path that allows for love. (well, a far cry from Kallen who didn't even want to see who Zero was under the mask and as such wouldn't even be able to pursue a romantic relationship with him.) The field is open, with Kallen and C.C. only looking better than the others because they at least are attempting to understand Lelouch now and are a part of his fight. But even that doesn't mean too much, a 1 second head start is still only 1 second. >_> |

If there is one thing I think Kallen's has the right to know Lelouch's background, if she doesn't already. |

Ugh, I get cut off trying to respond, lose all I typed and a bunch of new comments come up. How irritating.
Quote:
Well, that isn't exactly the best way to judge Lelouch either. He is barely ever completely honest with anyone. The whole cave scene could be seen as an example of this as well as some of his words at the end of 25. He is matter of fact with several people like C.C. and Kallen at certain times though. The whole person who I would say is just as lacking in being honest is C.C.. I've seen several times where they both seem to be doing it while talking with one another. He also needs to learn that he can rely on everyone around him and that he doesn't have to bear the burden alone. As for C.C., is she really in a position to help him when she needs just as much help if not more? Wouldn't Lelouch need someone who isn't having the same problem as him? Quote:
I'd say there was little romantic implications with the kiss given that they pretty much said so as well as the fact that romance was kept out of Season 1.There may have been some affection along with the possibility that it didn't have to be a kiss. I actually find the prospect of it being romantic troublesome since it seems like jumping the gun way to fast with things, which makes me think Kallen's case is all the stronger. Quote:
Kindred sould is one way of looking at it though this guarentees nothing. The fact that they are putting her fully in the playing field now makes me think that this will be her time. She may end up coming farther than C.C. ever did. Quote:
I'm honestly afraid of this going into a love triangle which I just see as a negative that has the inevitable conclusion of Kallen winning and C.C. losing in the end though still being close with Lelouch. There are a few factors that still worry me quite a lot. One is the thought that since C.C. is immortal, she may have descendents. This brings up the troublesome possibility of her being related to Lelouch or some rather irritating cliche I have seen happen when they do something like this. Another is her real name. It's been said that the revealing of this would mean they would have to change all the relationship charts which makes me worry that the sheer consequences of this name will make the pairing impossible. And yet another is the fact that Kallen is the only female lead beside C.C. on Lelouch's side who has a shot at him. Not only does this make her chances extremely good, but I also doubt that they are going to leave someone like Kallen without someone in the end and with Lelouch the only option, the end is obvious.

Lelouch pushes C.C. away all the time. Not like what he was trying to do with Ougi and co. or with Shirley, but he was being a complete jerk to her on all those occasions. Of course then he inevitably remembers that she's a person too, with emotions and a huge amount of pain and suffering, and that she really is his partner in crime. At which point he stops being mean to her and starts trying to do things to support her. And stop assuming the worst for C.C. just because she's immortal and then pushing Kallen Dann. Kallen's got a dead brother she loves, and plenty of easy ways to walk into all sorts of other death flags. Anyone can end up with Lelouch right now. Anyone. oh, and we already had this discussion of "can people who are both suffering help each other" already. The "If it could happen in Infinite Ryvius" principle applies here. |

At this point the contract is integral with Lelouch, so I doubt we won't see many more scenes where the two have opportunities to get closer as individuals Bah, and guranteeing nothing isn't a valid excuse to get as mopey about it as you have Dann. And what, C.C wasn't involved in that whole 'rescue Lelouch' operation either I suppose? Quote:
Hey, Marianne is watching over her shoulder, I'm sure C.C has access and insight into Lelouch even he doesn't know about What, you didn't see C.C kick butt in 15, she can hold her own in a cat fight On a more serious note I'll bring up Lelouch's own reception of C.C compared to Kallen and once AGAIN the Geass aspect of his life that only C.C can really provide guidance on. Oh c'mon, we don't even know if her kind can even have kids... plus that would be such obvious garbage I'd throw the script at Tanaguchi for coming up with something like that. Oh and the jealousy scenes STILL leave me in a bit of doubt that their related of all things. Like I said, her name only seems to have worked in developing things with Lelouch so we can't assume it's necessarily bad, so we'll see where it leads too, that's all. Okay, Kallen I can actually see without anyone (anyone else got that rough and tumble single female soldier vibe?), lonely and deprived C.C I can't anymore, it's happened way too much already and the way Lelouch took a stand on it just helps me think we may just get some where between those two after all. Look, Dann, your getting WAY too paranoid about everything now. You should just relax and let the series roll over you before you make any actual decisions about stuff or issues that may not even exist! |

Being immortal seems like one of the biggest death flags I can think of, and I know that doesn't make sense. And I simply can't imagine them killing off Kallen. It's not because I like her more than anyone else, I just have some odd feeling she is not going to die. Quote:
The contract represents C.C.'s biggest problem and that is her relation to Geass which dominates her almost entirely. I can't see her forming a romantic relationship or truly loving him unless that gets taken care of somehow. And that likely isn't going to get resolved to the end if at all. I sometimes see her ties to Marianne as a strike against her for some reason. It seems somewhat awkward to form a romantic relationship with the son of someone who is in her head. It also seems like an almost unfair advantage. Unless Marianne somehow approved of it, hence all her little comments from the game that seem like teasing to me. I can't help but wonder if the Geass aspect will be gone by the end of the show though. It seems somewhat odd if that still dominated his life in the end. She can't remember things so it could be possible. I admit at this point that it would be utterly ridiculous as well as a bad plot point, to me anyway. Well, she is human to some degree anyway unless she is like the immortals from Highlander who can't have children. That seems like a sad thing if it were true, especially if the pairing happened in the end. The way they talked about the name made it sound like the consequences would be bad and I can't think of how they could be good. It's possible, but it seems odd for some reason for them to go that way. I don't want to see C.C. without anyone anymore though. I think she has been alone for long enough and deserves her happiness now. Maybe I am, but I have to consider every possible aspect of things. Quote:
And the negatives seem too much of a problem to be dealt with in a realistic way.

Okay, that may very well be true. I just see things sometimes.
Another thing regarding your thoughts on Taniguchi's interpretation of love, wouldn't Kallen be the likelier candidate for that considering she had development with Lelouch first while C.C. didn't have anything to do with Lelouch till episode 5 after the initial meeting. I also wonder if their positions may be the same as they were by the end of the show, with C.C. possibly in a different position than before. Of course, I'm only thinking of this because of episode 26 which had a large number of parallels with episode 1. Gah, I need sleep.

Look, you can't base everything off of trying to predict the story pattern off of something as complicated and as twisting as Code Geass with such little information to go on. I mean, besides the irony of the pattern, it has no real bearing on the plot unless that was Tanaguchi's intention in the first place. Look, at this point we can't say that C.C is definetly or even most likely out of the running, same for Kallen, it's really all up in the air at this point and there's no use aggravating yourself over it until it does. In any case, get some rest Dann, I think you need it |

It's not like we can really predict what's gonna happen. Just wait and see. For all we know the OP of R2 will give it away with random shots of Lelouch and C.C. or Kallen naked together ala the Seed OPs thus answering our question before the seasons even begun.

I dunno why some of you guys keep thinking it's either Kallen or C.C for Lulu XD I mean, Shirley is an option, she certainly is the only one who's made her intentions towards him perfectly clear :P
Kallen, well, she's a hot babe, but she's also kinda suicidal so she's the one I'm worried about the most really as far as character deaths go. I would have been worried about Suzaku too if it weren't for the "LIVE!" command XD Lelouch is safe enough coz C.C is seemingly always around as an immortal human shield XD For now, what WOULD be funny would be to place some bets on the OP! XD Like, I bet my dignity in character shipping that there will be a shot of :P Just for fun!! Come one people, place you bets! The winner gets a pouch of cookies. XD Or a fic or fanart from me, as a request. (Please don't make me regret saying this!) So humor me! Go ahead! XD I say Kaguya/Nanally in the same shot! :3 ------- Edit Oh, btw, remind me when the first OP will be available for our hungry eyes exactly? *gets ready to set alarm* |

In any event, you did say which of them had the first formal meeting and so I chalk that up to C.C The first formal meeting between Kallen and Lelouch was when he jacked her walkie frequency and took command of her entire resistance force in order to crush Clovis. I sensed neither hate nor actual feelings involved between the two during the interaction, just the thing they always are into Season 1, commander and subordinate. I never got the whole 'I hate you now, but I'll fall for you later" vibe until around episode 9 myself, and that was when she really hated the Lelouch he put up to the one he was when he was Zero. Even the shower scene was just a another one-up display of how Lelouch had total control over her since the beginning, and that kind of start kind of prevented me from ever liking the idea of the pairing.

Then we can always go into the symbolism of people seeing the other unnoticed, C.C. sees Lelouch first, but Lelouch sees Kallen first. We could spin this in a crazy thing where C.C. will fall in love with Lelouch, but Lelouch will fall in love with Kallen. Quote:
