In fact I have evidence form the show that when C.C.'s body wasn't in possession of the Code she had no memories of the Geass at all. Even if it's possible to survive once the Code is completely take from the body. That shows without the Code the memories are lost. Anything else is just speculation. You did leave out the possibility before that the nun mortally wounded herself, passed the Code to C.C. so she couldn't heal in time. That would fit with what happened to V.V. Mortally wounded and had his Code stolen by Charles before he could recover.

But different people have different opinions on what is solid evidence, so to you you might feel like you have enough to jump to that conclusion...but for me i'd still say there's room for interpretation and other possible outcomes edit: please, let's just leave it at this, there's no point in further arguments... btw, i have some ideas for those 4komas that you drew (for code geass)...if you'd like to hear them out, or you can do me a favor by drawing it out cuz i'd love ot see it hehe |

as for the translation for the :読者の质问に左の第3四半期に発表したすべては、次の..
ccは彼女の愿いを达成するために话が変更される场合が确かに。 平和が长すぎる0.2年とされた后、国の平和を破るにはありません。 my roomate who is japanese says that it doesn't MAKE SENSE! it's like partially japanese partially chinese BUT, he did make a change: he said that the 0.2 years thing is saying that it's been 0.2 years and the peace has been going on for too long(-going on too long for bad things to happen)...so it's saying that the peace will be kept because nothing evil has happened for such a long time. my friend said that the translation kinda makes sense because the japanese that one has to work with sucks (half japanese, some chinese characters thrown in)...he says maybe something got screwed up while the guy typed it into the blog |

"You can request anything you want. I just don't promise to ever make it." Long winded way of saying I don't take requests just because they are requested. Now paying me to draw something is different. I don't do tutorials either. I'm not lacking the ideas of making more Code Geass 4komas. I'm just not feeling the will to make any of them. My hope is that the new issues of Newtype and other magazines will have information that would help improve my mood. My favorite character is Kallen and I'm not too happy with how she was treated at the end of the series. She spent her whole season falling in love with Lelouch. Then have to watch her suffer for the last few episodes as she has to oppose him. It felt sadistic.

V.V.'s case (from Eclipse subs, ep 15.) Edit: Scene starts at 05:35-36 in Eclipse's subs (H264 ver), so anyone who wants to check it out, it's there.
In chronological order Screen 1: C.C. talking to V.V. Screen 2 : V.V. talking Screen 3: V.V. still talking Screen 4: C.C. commenting on what V.V. is saying Screen 5 : V.V. continues V.V. remembers about Charles etc, etc. All this happens after Lelouch is inside, and play just after Charles has shot himself. Point: V.V. is obviously alive (he TALKS) even after Charles got his Code and waited for Lelouch inside. V.V. was owned in that mecha battle and he was bleeding even before he saw Charles. It's more likely that V.V. died of his wounds rather than transferring his Code. In the nun's case we really don't know how she died, but V.V. was already like crap before he even saw Charles at the gateway. The memory part is always up to questioning. Is he just reminiscing about the past since he is now beyond help but retains whatever memories he had even though he passed his Code, or has he really returned to that time because he passed his Code and lost his memories?

One thing that always stuck out to me about that scene. While Lelouch didn't give Kallen the answers she wanted. He also refused to even lie to her. Also in Lelouch's memories Kallen didn't appear as a friend or fighter. She was the girl who kissed him.

@firefoxx...i thought you did drawings for fun/one of those that did it just for the hell of it, so i assumed you wouldn't mind making a tutorial/do it out of kindness/love for art...but to pay you for something? come on man are you serious about that? i hope you were joking because that really takes away a lot of the respect i have for you (no offense) - the way i see art...it isn't about making money or anything like that, it's the passion for art and the "want" to create. - maybe i misunderstood your tone, but this is online...so i can't really judge anything except the words you write here..and to me, asking for money to draw something is just rather disgusting in my opinion. I really don't want to bash you or anything, it's more a constructive feedback/response from a "fan" if anything. |

I made my 4komas out of enjoyment for the series and I enjoy the character Kallen. Now I don't have the urge to make any more. I feel irritated with the idea of sitting down and drawing the ideas I have. If someone wanted to pay me to draw them. That would at least be compensation for the irritation. Art isn't as simple as sitting down and drawing something. If you don't feel it. What you make wont look right.

Think of it this way: it was Code and Geass which made C.C. a selfish, manipulative, and despairing person. However, if C.C. no longer saw Geass as a curse, then she could give it to others without being selfish or manipulative. Without having to give it to people who weren't prepared for it, without having to manipulate people to keep using it, and without having to 'trick' people into recieving Code, Geass could very well be a gift, rather than a curse. In this case, there's no reason to think that continuing to give out Geass would be like spitting on Lelouch's memory (only if she does it to help others, though; if she did so attempting to die again, that would indeed be a betrayal). :P Actually, it doesn't really. Your initial interpretation is more than likely correct: if you listen to V.V.'s words in that scene, he talks about recieving Code in future tense. This doesn't make sense from a 'he still has his memories' perspective, since V.V. had already had one for ~50 years. If he were talking about getting another one (why? how?) he'd probably say something like "I'll reclaim it". |

I'll offer Shirley as an example, as she was my favorite pairing before conveniently dying , when her plot was about understanding Lelouch through the end of Season 1 and the pre and post-moments of the Mao arc, there was no romance being implied, at best a loose friendship (I was banking on her understanding him leading to romance which is what happened in R2, but the two elements were almost always kept seperate. Kallen's on the other hand could be argued either way as to what purpose Scene #2 had. An example within my example: What does falling on top of him, after thinking of his attempt to sleep with her (also having nothing to do with understanding him), have anything to do with understanding Lelouch? The conversation questions it/him, but in a provacative pose.). There was a girl trying to piece together everything about either her fractured memories/unexplained note, or figuring out who Lelouch was brought on by Viletta's goading and her father's death. Whereas Kallen was a garbled mess of both, which makes no real sense to me if its supposed to be 'handled well' and in an ambiguous ending. Like my example within my example... was getting to, Kallen's attempts to understand Lelouch were bullet riddled with some form of undertones that simply were not present in any other characters dynamic (Suzaku and Euphemia, Ougi and Viletta aside). To push the point further asking someone what they mean to you at gunpoint and later kissing them, while loosely tied to "understanding" would more naturally be a tone for romance. There were better ways to handle Kallen's development, they could have done it like they did Shirley's, or they could have done it some other way to elaborate on her character more, if it was intended to be just about understanding Lelouch. Call me brain dead retarded but I don't think that was the point of her development nor was it the only point of her epilogue and why she was the one talking. |
