So even thougth euphie did tell him to figth without restraint ,wasnt his dutie to keep the princess alive at all cost? but no he charges stupidly forward with his ninja power....

I know I m just a suzaku hater that loves to point out all the possible reason to hate him but I think that suzaku acting in a way that could have killed euphemia was either another proof that he is a stupid jerk because after saying he will protect lives he just charges like a bull or a scenario error because it doesnt fit suzaku POV to act like that.
Suzaku is more sensible than that. We know he said that Zero is evil because of the poison gas incident, however, at that time he did not know it was merely a distraction and not his true intent. There is no doubt Suzaku is having conflicted feelings about Zero. He could have simply pulled the trigger himself when he held Zero captive, but he didn't. I believe I've already argued this in the morality thread, but if he had enough resolve to kill his father, then he should have been able to kill Zero easily.

Everything that has happened from after the blast was entirely out of his power. For one thing, Suzaku was GEASSED. I doubt he realized what he did either. So when they were placed on the island, he couldn't have done anything about where he was left (with Kallen, and Euphemia with Lelouch). Just because he said it once, doesn't mean it sticks with him forever. Zero being 'evil' in his eyes is one thing, but Lelouch has not killed Euphemia yet. So that argument is entirely invalid. If Suzaku's duty is to "keep Euphemia alive" as you say, he's doing somewhat of a good job.

Not to mention, you're posing a what if. Euphemia was not held hostage, so Suzaku took his chance to subdue Zero. Even if they're having nice chats and resolving matters, Zero is still an opponent of the empire.

I know it's not clear who Suzaku was referring to by saving lives, but I'm sure you can assume one thing: people that are causing chaos are not likely to be saved.

I don't care if you really hate Suzaku or not, because I know I'm not going to change your opinion. But seriously, to say that your arguments are PROOF? I think it would fit your image to respond by saying "I think this" or "I think that" or even "he IS a jerk." If you realize what your position is, consider what you say.

I wonder if this will have any effect down the road. Did Lelouch simply say, "live?"

Since it's general, would that change Suzaku somewhat? (Get him out of that suicidal runing?)

Suzako will get off by saying that he want to protect Euphie who was in the lien fire. How he will explain how they got to that island is beyond me.

I doubt Suzaku will have anything to say. Euphemia will most likely defend him.

yep, he just ordered suzaku "live". and no doubt the intent was somewhat general as well.

it's certainly an interesting idea. but we'll just wait and see.

actually, he'll probably get off by Euphie and/or Schniezel supporting him, and then proceeding to accept a suicide mission into Kyuushuu. Oh how I do love partially inept antagonist militaries. ^_^

Euphie WAS in fact held hostage by Zero.
Zero even SAYS "let's exchange our hostages."
Of course Lulu didn't have any intention of actually shooting her, but how would Suzaku know that? From his POV, she infact was taken hostage.

Anyways, in defence to Suzaku, I must mention he is Euphie's knight.
If Euphie ordered him to fight, then it's his duty to do so. He would not be charged any crime.
However, wether you see it as "failure" as a britannian soldier or not is totally up to your opinion.

thats a defin no doubt ~ but yuffie's opinion would most certainly be out casted as useless ~ i like to see suzaku get out of this one (hes in deep shi* >.<) ~
so lulu has now also lost a "get out of jail free" card due to this recent geassing ~ now i wonder how hes going to escape suzaku's wrath the next time they meet

also...when are they going to deepen yuffie's and suzaku's relationship

second season to never.

after this episode, I'm seriously questioning whether there really ever will be the SEED-like SuzakuxEuphie pairing. Euphie seems to be moving more and more towards Nunnally and Lelouch now a days. and the fact she's known Lelouch was Zero kinda makes it feel like Euphie on some level realizes she's using Suzaku for her own ends.

I dont know.... Its just that after all the justice talk of suzaku ,trying to keep casualties low , I think its weird for him to be so hasty. Whatever the point of view you are taking you cannot deny that suzakus actions of rushing towards a man who has a gun pointed to a girl, that is none other than the governess of your country, was incredibly risky!
And I think that a knigths job is to protect the princess.... even if it means desobeying to some orders (but its true that this is only my opinion).

Oh and I just wanted to make clear that when I said that suzaku failed as a soldier and as a hononary britannian, I was only pointing at this particular scene where he tries to put a ninja move on zero even thougth euphie is taken "hostage".

good point ~ maybe yuffie will want to reunite lulu and nanali back into the family for what she thinks is a happy end tho its a bit naive from my point of view for ojo sama she will think its the best solution to avoid bloodshed while not understanding what lulu wants ~

dam...i wanna see lacusxkira reincarnated

but you know...suzaku must have felt that he was up for the job to be rushing in like that...and we all know that he speed hax his way up to lulu...porbably faster than when he can react to pull the trigger ~

I don't know if you watched the anime with subs, (I don't even know if it's out )
but Euphemia ordered Suzaku in that scene to fight, regardless of what happens to herself.

As a knight of Euphie, he has two choices:
1. Disobay her orders, and respond to hostage trading
2. Obay her orders, and fight back.

I hope that clearify things for you.

I think Lelouch's Geass order to Suzaku 'to live' will last through the end of the series. Suzaku is too important of a character to have Geass used on him before the end of the series and not have anything to do with it for the rest of the time. I'm 95% positive now that Suzaku won't die in the series...which means Lelouch's possibility of dying just increased significantly.

Euphemia is smarter than I thought she'd be. ^_^ She figured out Zero's true identity during the hostage crisis several episodes back.

I'm surprised to see that Kallen didn't get blown off by the Gawain blasters.

...Someone, please pull off a good Euphemia-sama cosplay now!

Reincarnated? That image has practically been burned into everyone's minds. Don't worry, the directors will find an excuse for another season of SEED. It's a cash cow.

At least for the first season, I suspect that Suzaku will remain Lelouch's biggest conflict until a more threatening one emerges (small mini-boss before the final boss )

Yes, but I think the disagreement hinges on the relative importance of two of Suzaku's duties as a knight. Are they:

1) Keep the princess alive
2) Obey her orders

or:

1) Obey the princess's orders
2) Keep her alive?

Add to that the fact that Euphie's order wasn't really based on any kind of reasoning or principles. She told Suzaku to fight back because she got upset at Kallen insulting her, and knew Lelouch wasn't really going to shoot her. Is that really a good enough justification for Suzaku to (as far as he knows) endanger her life? He's a knight, not a robot - he should be expected to exercise some judgement.

By the way, did anyone else love Euphie's expression when Kallen told her to shut up and called her a puppet princess who can't do anything by herself? Even when she was in full "ditzy popstar princess" mode, I don't remember ever seeing Lacus throw a fit of imperial pique like that.

earlier in the series i think C.C said that geass could evolve(i m not too sure about this ) so Lulu's geass evolution might be something like he could geass a person more than once
