Found a Chinese blog dedicated to Kallen, with episode reviews, interview summaries, magazine translations etc.

while i have always liked tsundere characters kallen has became one of my all time fav chactarers in anime period
and for a while now i have wondered why that is since she wasnt my fav character in season 1 (not even my fav female) infact i found her somewhat annoying as little more then a one trick pony (zero's 1# fangirl) this season however she has become my fav female character very early on (owing partly to C.C being somewhat less interesting then she was in season 1, and later on to kallens own development) and around ep 18 she became my fav character in show (kicking lelouch from the 1# spot) which was somewhat odd to me at first since like i said i didnt like her at first but then i remembered the one other character which i have had a very similer expiriance with in a diffrent but equally awesome anime (IMO) that character is caska from berserk who also started out annoying the hell out of me for the first half of the show (season one of code geass) and turned into my favorite character later on and kallen's development this season (and in fact both seasons) mirrors much of caska's Spoiler for berserk spoilers and code geass plot comperassion:
all in all caska is probably one of my top five female characters in anime history and kallen (if they dont royally cock up the ending) would probably be added to that list and with their development being so similer (IMO) i just wanted to point it out they even shift focus from badass fighter to romantic love interest around the half way point (while still being total badasses) it also shows how a kalulu ending is possible rather easily (just hope it doesnt end like berserk did)

her one great flaw was that she was always a follower
shes strong and brave and all but she always needed zero to tell her what to do hopefully that would change now

Ok with Linkinthestreet, in R2, conditions weren't the same and she didn't have no more to stay out of Lelouch's secret, since she finally learned he was Zero.
I love her since S1, personnally, her relationship with Lelouch's Ashford, Shirley, and others, were pure win in my eyes, and her entire character as well; The second part of S1 really disappointed me, when she was pushing away because they planned R2. (And her little moment of apparition were the better to me...) Happy to see she finally takes back an even more shinning role than in first half of S1. Conclusion ; I loved her in S1, and I'm in love with her in R2 :P I really hope her final will be as much good as her role in the serie. Don't screw with her character, Taniguchi !

Hmm, Kallen's been my favourite character ever since S1...
In R2...well, I've always growled "Hey, stay away from that Siscon" and it didn't work...(LOL) But it's great that they gave her a more...essential role in R2. Without Kallen I'd probably not be watching it~ |

Like I just said there man. That magazine is using information they have put out. Considering the information gained in AV interview about Kallen choosing to do things on her own, I don't believe she'll be with this group for long.

How so? she can remind her of the kind brother she had, other than that I don't see her getting near her at this point |

The interview I'm speaking of has the VA stating Kallen's motivations as told to her by the director. As that this is from the director to a VA, I believe information gained by this interview would take higher precedence over a generalized plot article in a magazine.
