okay! since it was already 200 pages and I don't have time to check each page...
anyone can tell me C.C. real name??? maybe we really need an OVA or special episode which will reveal her true name.... It was the only mystery left by Code Geass for me |

I think they might have.
It's one of the few things that I've not read much about when it comes to Code Geass. Does anyone here know of any quotes or statements made by either Okouchi or Taniguichi with relation to CC's real name?

Which again, seemed not to be the case since she was a random slave girl, which nobody could see coming. |

You cant deny this fact...
just to correct anyone...
I ask my Japanese friend something and this is what she told me... about the interviews and stuff we read all around the net... Quoted from a Japanese fan: Code geass is not a one man made item, if I'm not wrong the story itself is made by 26 more directors, and the people here in the net only credit two directors, O and T. So dont trust what ONE director tells you, ok? |

To be perfectly blunt, your friend doesn't know what they're talking about. Gorō Taniguchi is the lead director and Ichirō Ōkouchi is the lead writer. The individual episodes are almost all written by Ōkouchi, and though there are many directors, they have little to no impact on the actual story. That isn't their job. Their job is to fit it into the timeslot.

I do sadly think that the discussion is impaired by the lack of meaningful development C.C. got in R2, which, having reflected on the matter, is probably my biggest complaint with the season. We didn't get nothing, true; we got some detail on her past (but not as much as we'd like), and we got that interesting part where she lost all her post-Geass memories (but that didn't really get explored as much as it could have been). But other than that... not a lot. She felt pretty out-of-focus to me throughout most of R2, which is a crying shame because during season 1, she was my favourite character. Now? Still one of my favourites, but she might have lost out on the top position to Lelouch, who did get development in R2. As I say, a shame. |

Except for the fact that at the time of the first season finishing, the plans for the second season, such as they were, were vastly different; certainly, they didn't include a timeskip or Lelouch losing his memories. So even if the kiss at the end of season 1 was retconned into being what you say, it can't have been meant that way at the time; I personally prefer to regard it as having nothing to do with that.
As for Lelouch regaining his memories, I reckon C.C. could've accomplished that with any sort of contact. Why a kiss? For the same reason as the first, of course! That and fanservice. Wait, that is the same reason as the first. Nevermind. Jokes aside, I do believe that C.C. has the ability to negate Geass. Possibly all Code-holders do, but C.C. almost certainly. Why? Well, recall Jeremiah. Now, his cybernetic components are all very nifty, but remember what the original purpose of his modifications was stated to be? To artificially produce a being like C.C.. That's where he gets his immunity to Geass from... yet somehow he's also gotten a Geass-canceller added to the mix. How can that be? Well, seems pretty natural if that was one of the abilities of C.C.'s that Bartley and his scientists were trying to replicate. Now, clearly it doesn't work in quite the same way; C.C. seems to need contact to do just about anything, whilst Jeremiah's Geass-canceller works at some considerable range. On the flip-side, Jeremiah doesn't seem to have gotten in on any of that immortality business, even if he is clearly incredibly tough to kill. (That said, even if he were immortal or even just had good regenerative capabilities, that would explain how he too was able to survive being plunged to the bottom of the ocean at the end of season 1.) Code Geass has always been frustratingly coy with details of how the Code works. All we really know about it is the following: it makes its bearer immortal (of the regenerating sort), it makes him or her immune to Geass, it gives him or her the ability to grant Geasses, and it can be transferred to one such grantee who has used his or her Geass enough for the sigil to have activated in both eyes, though the mechanics of this transfer are maddeningly unclear (it seems that the Geass-user is the one who must initiate the transfer, but is that really the case? How does the transfer itself work? What does it look like? Does the former immortal begin to expire immediately afterwards, or are they just mortal again, to die like any other human? Both immortals seen to lose their Code (V.V. and the nun) have died soon afterwards, but this seems to be of natural wounds...). That's it. It's never stated that they have no other abilities (though we do know that they lose their Geass), and certainly V.V. seems to accomplish some very strange things during season 1 (Kaminejima, anyone?), even if that is with the help of the Thought Elevator. Who's to say that negating Geass isn't something they can do? Or that they don't have unique abilities, and that negating Geass happens to be something C.C. can do? It's all left very open, but that's my interpretation of things. |
