Delayed reaction, but uh

…hay, this is delayed reaction, but in R2 19, why didn’t the Black Knights think it was strange that Kallen called Zero “Lelouch” when he still had his mask on?

Pudding

Mai haanii loves it when I mention him here! :D

Earl Lloyd requested I make a post about… well… Lloyd, since he had that “lol i’m f’ed in da head” line in 19 and I have yet to live up to this request. When I sat down to consider what to write, what really came to my mind is how Lloyd isn’t afraid to go, “GUYS I’M MESSED UP”, reinforced by 19, but Cecile is such a fucking cunt and keeps making faces at everyone and being silly while visibly having no qualms about inventing weapons used in war, when the last thing she marveled over (the Guren) ended up being used against her home team. EVEN NINA, yes, NINA might actually be losing sleep here over making something that is killing people. Gaaah.

Oh, and new poll I thought of randomly while writing this. Personally I think he would be Chocolate and vanilla swirl. This actually makes me want to go buy those Jell-O pudding cups, and it’s like 4:35am. Fuck.

Schneizel is actually Near

Fuck arguments about the Black Knights being stupid or what their motivations was or how Schneizel had just bombed the shit out of Tokyo and looked threatening as hell. There’s a far simpler way to explain the events of R2 19: Schneizel is Near from Death Note.

This means he’s also going to win the series!

Oh, wait, Schneizel doesn’t actually have magic powers

Observation: Schneizel’s list of “People who I think Lelouch used Geass on” includes General Katase, who Lelouch never actually used Geass on. I guess they’re assuming what they assume to be General Katase’s suicide was because Lelouch Geassed him. So Schneizel doesn’t actually have magic powers, he’s making awesome guesses.

…but then again, how the fuck does Schneizel know about Orange being rescued by the Geass Cult? It’s written on the sheet about Orange. Did Bartley manage to contact him in his captivity? KINDA DOUBTFUL ABOUT THAT. And how about the guy who Lelouch got to pull the fire alarm? All I can think of is that it has to do with Villetta’s work in the Information Department, but who knows.

Okay whatever screw it. Schneizel is still a fucking magician until further notice. Clearly he included Katase even though he knew it’s wrong to sucker punch Toudou! *denial denial*

Schneizel End CONFIRMED?

HAHA OH WOW.

Schneizel: The former 11th Prince of the Holy Britannian Empire, Lelouch vi Britannia.
Schneizel: He’s the man who I loved and feared the most.

inb4 a million Schneizel x Lelouch yaoi fanfics.

What the fuck, Nina

Nina: In the end, I had no idea…
Nina: I had no idea about the damage it would cause…
Lloyd: Nina, you have to make a choice.
Lloyd: Either you abandon science and save your soul,
Lloyd: or destroy your soul and sacrifice yourself for science.
Nina: That’s…
Nina: Did you make a choice too, Professor Lloyd?
Lloyd: I’ve been broken since the start.

Wait, so, Nina, you honestly had no idea how much damage FLEIA would cause? Were you not fucking paying attention during the test?

…honestly?

Schneizel must have the most difficult job in the world

R2 19 has made me realized something: Schneizel must have the most difficult job in the world. My respect and adoration for him has pretty much jumped up about 50 notches. (Pic unrelated)

Not only is your dad dumping all of his responsibilities onto you and running off to play with Jupiter, but you must also constantly look, be, and radiate with fabulous and awesome to the point where you can make something as mundane as sitting at a table look badass, as well as upkeep an Academy Award winning act of having a believably sane, kind, caring personality, while having an insane level of mental intelligence and deduction ability that allows you to figure out a completely accurate list of who your little brother used Geass on and what happened to those people and print this information out on individual emblemed sheets of paper (probably laminated too) with a 12hr turnaround, all while putting up with a racist nuclear table humping scientist who wants to fuck your dead little sisters corpse, a “broken” in the head engineer who wants to rape his own machines, a terrible cook who cares about the wrong shit at the wrong time, as well as sexually satisfying Kallen’s crossdressing older brother (probably Schneizel’s only source of personal comfort), plus tending to the needs to his country. I’m sure he spends like 2hrs a day perfecting his hair flick and smile combo too. Of course, since it’s Schneizel, this is all probably just in a days work for him. He must have this routine down pat. Fuck. HOW DOES HE DO IT?!

R2 19 has Delicious Schneizel Folded Hands Stuff

Gendou pose? Maybe.

• Rolo’s death was fucking hilarious because Lelouch kept yelling shit at him and he would Geass freeze him and then that lullaby started playing in the BGM and I fucking lol’d like a thousand times.
• Schneizel brought Anya to the Ikaruga but her mysteriousness still hasn’t been resolved.
• Suzaku fucking stood there, THE WHOLE EPISODE, then did an “I’M LOSING IT LOL” laugh at the end with VIOLIN DUELING GUITARS music booming in during it.
• Knight of 12 is cute. ;_;
• The Black Knights are about to shoot the fuck out of Lelouch, and he convinces Kallen not to stick for him so he can go down AN HERO, but Rolo rescues him.
• Schneizel somehow has a list of every person who Lelouch has used Geass on. (Edit: Well, Lelouch didn’t Geass Katase, but I think it’d be easy for Schneizel to go, “Uh obviously he blew himself up because he was Geassed, yup.”)
• Nina seems to have realized what [every internet forum ever] has been pointing out the past week: She killed a shitload of people who weren’t necessarily 11’s or BK. She’s seen looking at a monitor of people who are presumed to be dead and BAAAWING like a little bitch.
• Gino’s got spears pointed at him in the preview. Oshi-
• Oh, and Milly’s fine.
• The betrayal shit is mostly fueled along by Ougi, who shows up in the meeting room w/Villetta and goes FUCK EVERYTHING GUYS. He also proposes the trade of Zero for Japan’s independence. The only role the recording plays is when Schneizel’s like, “Oh hey BTW guys he rigged Euphy’s shit too lol!”
• Also in the preview, Diethard had the shit beaten out of him, and Orange is seemingly still with the Black Knights…?
• And yes, CLOVIS APPEARED. When his picture appeared on-screen when watching the stream, someone in #gg said that /a/ was going to love this episode because CLOVIS APPEARED.
• The keyphrase from the Geass newsletter for this episode turned out to be a quote of Lloyd’s. Everyone thought it was Rolo’s since we also knew he was going to die in this episode, but SunRise trolled us pretty good. Lloyd tells Nina about throwing away your soul for the sake of science. When Nina asked him if that’s what he picked, he responds to her by telling her that he’s been fucked in the head since the start.

Does Minami’s memory suck or what

Remember in S1 24-25 when the Black Knights head guys take over Ashford? Do they not fucking remember Nunnally from back then? This is especially directed to Minami, who was specifically asked her whereabouts by Zero. Shouldn’t they be able to make some sort of early connection here. Like, “Why the fuck does Zero care so much about the wheelchair girl?” and then, “Omg the wheelchair girl from Ashford is the new Gov-Gen of Area 11 the fucks going on!” I think that they would be able to maybe infer that Zero, perhaps, knew who she was back then and there was a specific reason why he calls him and goes “FUCK OUGI, WHERE’S THE WHEELCHAIR GIRL?!” Arguably they might’ve had their memory wiped, but I’m assuming only those who went back to the motherland (the Ashford kids) had their memory wiped, as the Black Knights seem to have been in jail in Area 11 for a year.

…maybe Minami will have a light bulb turn on when Schneizel goes “ps my little brother = zero” and go “HOLY SHIT SO THAT’S IT!!!” in R2 19.

17-20 predictions

Koshimizu posted the ep 17 summary from TV Weekly. Based on it, the CompAce 17-20 stuff, and the Korean blog, I’m theorizing how 17-20, as well as the general end of the series, will get played out.

Again, please note, these are guesses based off of the TV guide summaries and the Korean Blog. In other words, they are “theories” not “summaries”. Read more »
