What if the Rebellion Succeeds?
Usually in anime, when the main character leads a rebellion, it succeeds. But in Code Geass, I haven't really been sure whether Lelouch will succeed in making the Britannians leave Japan, especially since the rebellion was so weak at the beginning. So what do you think? Will Zero and his allies win by the end of the season? Or by the end of the rumored second season?
Then, what will Lelouch and Suzaku do? If Zero can free Japan, will he be able to get the rest of his coalition to attack Britannia, which is his true goal? Will they go along with him? And what if his identity is revealed?
And what about Suzaku? If it becomes clear that Zero is winning, what would Suzaku do, given that he is only supporting Britannia because they won the war? Suzaku fights for Britannia because he believes that supporting the victors, stopping the fighting, then hoping they are worthy rulers, is the best thing to do to preserve life. But, if Zero begins to have the advantage, how can Suzaku rationalize his fighting? If Suzaku believes that the Britannian Empire can change and be reformed, despite its cruel actions, why not the Black Knights and the rest of the rebellion?
Also, if Britannia must withdraw, Suzaku will, to put it mildly, not be very welcome under the new regime, especially if his role in the death of the Prime Minister is revealed. What would he do then?

I can see it happening, but I actually hope that we aren't thrown any mystical type curveballs on that scale. Like for example, who is the common enemy? Their father, I would suppose. I guess except for Euphie, I would see no reason for Cornelia to betray the Empire. I would see her instead resolving to become Empress in order to change things for Euphie. Perhaps, if the Emperor somehow betrayed Euphie or showed he didn't care whether s/he lived or died because she was 'weak' (shades of the Lulu and Nunnaly situation), she would turn her back on the Empire.
