Rumors and predictions

[nayami.livejournal.com]

I whined about this on my personal journal, but then I figured it was more productive to come here for insight.

A couple months ago people were talking about rumors for a second season of Geass. They came along with a post on spoilers, which for the most part have proven true. It remains to be seen if their comments on Schniezel will be as accurate. But then the series appears to be moving more rapidly since Mao so technically it could work itself to a conclusion. I just worry about all the plot lines it has to solve: C.C., Suzaku's abilities, the Rebellion, Geass and Lelouch and who really killed Marianne. I also question the decision of the series to include two recaps for a 25 episode series.

Therefore, this post is twofold. Is the community more inclined to believe in a second season and what are our predictions for how the series will wrap things up?

EDIT: I found the post with all the rumors.

1 - 8 and 14 have occurred. 11 and 13 are also looking likely, with 15 referring to a potential season two. 9 has me completely stumped, especially with the events of episode 19. I'm also not the biggest fan of 12. As for the second set of spoilers, I'm both hoping 1 isn't and is true, as well as 4.

I was bungling around on Chinese forums last night, and judging by what Babelfish had to say, the 21st episode will be about a competition at school to make the largest pizza. So I sure as hell hope that there's a second season.

Hm, I see a second Britannian rebellion rising up from the Emperor's non-Lelouchian children. Operating on the assumption that Schneizel isn't just putting up a facade, and is genuinely a nice (if pragmatic and a bit "ends justify the means") sort of guy, then... well, the Emperor probably has some sort of mystical power associated with Geass ("power of the king," much?) or has been researching into it. Hence, investigating those archeological spots and invading other countries to get at them. It appears to me that Schneizel and Clovis were working on investigating those (hence Schneizel's "Clovis was better at this" or whatever when he and Lloyd are starting to check out that cave on the island)... and, apparently, they're keeping it sort of secret from daddy ("This is one he doesn't know about"). So, uh, my call is that there'll be some unification between the princes and princesses and Lelouch, or at least between Euphie and Lulu, and it will be against the Emperor.

... and then the Geass alien people will get involved somehow. Five-to-one odds that Stonehenge will show up somewhere and, well, I don't have a well-thought-out idea or anything, I just see "Cornelia is kinda crazy, but she's really a nice person. Schneizel is hot suave not so bad. Euphie is a good person. So unless the Emperor starts looking like a nice guy, there'll probably be some mass turning against him."

Well, dammit, there goes my Schneizel is a nice guy theory. (Come on, pretty boy second prince! Give 'em hell before you kick the bucket!)
