What draws you to Geass?

[nayami.livejournal.com]

Why yes we are a poll. And yes I do live here. After reading something verity_isle said about people watching Geass for the lulz only and following most of the anime blogs, I asked myself why I watch Geass. I realized the answer has changed from the time I started watching the series to just after the Mao arc, when Geass suddenly became my *show* as I once viewed my other fave Naruto. So as usual, I have two questions to pose:


1. Why did you originally start watching Geass? When might be cool to know too since I know we have people here since October and others who recently marathoned the whole thing. It seems to me when a person started watching Geass partially determines the why.

2. Why do you stick with Geass AKA what do you love about it?


For me, I started with Geass sheerly because 1.)it was Clamp, 2.)Lelouch looks like Kamui and 3.)I love Kamui no matter what hell he puts me through. I did originally just watch it for the WTFery, although I always adored Lelouch. Now I admit I'm into the political intrigue and just how Lelouch is going to screw himself deal with things next. I might add more to this later but I'd rather hear some others first.

1. Why did you originally start watching Geass?
I originally just was all poking around at the anime blogs, telling myself, "One day, you are going to watch this series!". Sadly I kept forgetting about it until a friend of mine uploaded the first two episodes to her webspace, which I downloaded and watched.

SAFE TO SAY. I fell in love with Lelouch the series. I marathoned all that was out at the time and just went nuts and ended up playing Lelouch using this journal at i_s_l_a_n_d_rp shortly after episode 17.

2. Why do you stick with Geass AKA what do you love about it?
I just... well, I love everything about the series. The mech fights, the plot twists, the chracters and their designs (well save a few odd ducks). But my main driving force to keep coming back is Lelouch. He just plays out things a good deal differently than the normal 'main' character. I'm always eager to see what he's going to do next, and how he plans to pull it off.

So yeah, it's Lulu that keeps me interested. Him and his interactions with everyone else~ Oh. Also Lloyd. It always make me happy to see him having screen time. :D

OH I FORGOT. Also the ridiculous plot twists they throw like curve balls. You can expect one thing than the plot takes a sharp left in the opposite direction and makes me go "WAIT WHAT" or just make a O.O face as it happens. That kind of stuff always keeps me coming back in a series.

Y! Moar Code Gayass characterz, plz.

(OT, but you really should join lelouch_love with your RP journal, masquerade as Lelouch! That'd be lolarious. :D)

I clearly need to make another pimping post here once the first season ends. We need a Euphie or Milly or Shirley or something.
