Well we know Lelouch couldn't have become immortal from Charles or C.C. so how did Nunnally
see Lelouch's memories?

Could've been symbolic for our benefit, and Nunnally just realized his plans. Kallen figured out the same thing, but she didn't see his memories.

Only as a new identity. Suzaku is dead, he can never live that existence again. He is now living Lelouch's entity, Zero.
Since you didn't see the subs, I'll tell you one more thing that was said, in case you didn't understand. Lelouch told Suzaku that wishes are like the Geass. Asking someone to do something you can't accomplish on your own. And that Lelouch would put himself under a Geass called "the wishes of everyone"
After Suzaku stabbed Lelouch and they talked about his punishement, Suzaku said "This Geass.. I did receive it"

But how do you mean when you say that the act of killing Lelouch is the punishment he was referring to? The burden of killing his best friend you mean? Heh, now that I think about it, wouldn't that be more of the burden? And to be forced to live a new life a punishment to atone for what he did in the past? That is, to deny him his wish to kill himself and the release of death because he doesn't think he deserves to live, he was given the punishment of a life of servitude to make up for the past. At least that's the way I interpreted it.

How are you sure he didn't get the code from Charles without knowing it?

Great episode. Truly bittersweet. Got unintentionally spoiled before watching, but that didnt take much from my enjoyment. That was just great.

Its made clear that theirs no magical answer, only by working together can Zuko, Aang, and everyone else make peace. Code Geass on the other hand cares more about giving everyone a happy ending so they place Ohgi, as Prime minister. You might as well have Tamaki as the Prime Minister.
Yeah, but with Avatar, nearly the entire series outside of the last arc was made irrelevant. All of the training, info they came across, experiences, nearly all of it was meaningless since Aang just went Super Saiyan Avatar and wrecked shit. That was yet another series that got rushed so badly that it transformed into shit.

I own the entire Avatar series on DVD, and after a year or so, when I can stomach watching it again, I guarantee I will never watch the final battle again. All of the training and interesting twists along the way that ended up being meaningless was what made the show. I'll just watch all of that and ignore the ending.

Code Geass was even worse than that however. I have no reason to watch it again. I'm thankful that I was entertained a bit all of these months, but to say that that entertainment was fleeting is a huge understatement.

But did you love it because of how the final battle and the politics all worked out? Or because of all of the happily ever after relationships? See what I mean?

Edit: Indeed. My bad. Though there was a certain relevance to it.

I don't know if this is posted b4 (I just don't want to read all 110 pages XD)

but I found this on another forum, I can finally sleep now after reading it

Quote:
My take is that Lelouch is alive.

The most obvious reason would be CC calling to Lelouch in the closing scene of the episode. As we can assume CC to be still sane, she must be talking to someone, and that someone would most probably be the driver of the cart: Lelouch would have to be alive.

Second, however, and this is where the others have thought things through, Lelouch is alive because he got his dad’s code. He beckoned the World of C to lend him its powers, and he took Charles’s code before Charles passed on. The reason why Lelouch still has his Geass is because he didn’t take the Code from the same person who gave him his Geass: he took his Geass from CC, and he took his Code from Charles. Thus, he now possesses both immortality and a Geass. This is also a reason that the title is Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion.

To further corroborate this, however, remember that when Nunnally held Lelouch’s hand he transferred his memories to her. CC also did it when Lelouch touched her accidentally back then, so it could be assumed that people with Codes are indeliberate telepaths. This leaves us with both immortals traversing the world for the rest of eternity.

It’s a great end, friends.

P.S. Ending line of CC translated by bibi: “Geass is the power of kings, it will isolate you… well, I guess thats a little wrong… eh, Lelouch”

P.P.S. Additional evidence, courtesy of `Nergal and 4chan:

1. Charles grabbed Lelouch with his right hand, which had the Geass sigil.
2. Lelouch needed the fully evolved Geass to transfer a code.
3. The code doesn’t appear to activate until someone dies. Hence, why C.C. was wounded when she first inherited her code. Same happened with Charles in the World of C.
4. When Lelouch touched Nunnally, Nunnally got a flash of his memories. This ONLY happens when a high potential Geass user touches someone with the fully evolved Geass.
5. The title of the series is “R2″, which is similar to how “C.C” is pronounced. So Lelouch would be “R.R.” which is Engrish (I presume) for L.L., Lelouch Lamprouge.
6. When C.C. is talking on the wagon, she says “the power of Geass brings loneliness…that’s not quite right is it, Lelouch?” and nods her head in the direction of the wagon driver.

P.P.P.S More evidence, courtesy of an intelligent anon from 4chan:

Orange knew of Lelouche’s and Suzaku’s plan and helped them out by ordering his men not to fire on Zero, he even smiled when Zerozaku jumped on his shoulder.

Now would Orange, a man who devoted himself entirely to Lelouche and threw away everything without a second thought be OK with a plan where the sole person he wants to protect in life is actually killed? The answer to that is NO, not even if Lelouche ordered him to accept the plan: he would not go along with it and would protect him with his life. There is only one way that Orange would be OK with a plan like that and thats if he knew about Lelouche’s immortality, which I assume he did as he worked with V.V. in the Geass research base. Orange was OK with this plan as he knew Lelouche would come to no harm and would be able to start a new peaceful life with the woman he loves in a world which he himself had made peaceful.

Even at the end, we see Orange on his orange plantation, completely content with the way things have panned out, he definitely could not be that happy had Lelouche actually died.

There it is, firm evidence of Lelouche’s immortality if the scene with C.C. and the cart driver wasn’t painfully obvious enough.

I believe she was talking to Marianne. She gained the ability to speak to C.C., (and seemingly Charles as well because he was seen speaking to himself as well on a few occasions) after she transfered to Anya's body.

Can we please stop talking about Lelouch being alive/dead, and talk about something else

Like how Lelouch must have some kind of bondage fetish

I mean look at Nunally, and Schneizel?
