Who's up for a speculation post? This one targets the final chunk of episodes, possibly including the pizza episode. Although I've seen several spoilers floating around, for the sake of semi-valid speculation, I'm only going to be concentrating on the spoilers that come from the Animage/NewType magazines, although I have nothing against the 2chan spoilers. Their contradictions just hurt my brain lately. The points for this entire discussion come from GameFAQs.
Stage 21: The School Festival Announcement!
1. Lelouch enjoys himself in the school festival while making preparations for a battle plan to be attempted by the Black Knights. In the midst of that, Ougi, Villetta, Cecile and Euphie arrive at the school festival as well.At the Haunted House, Ougi and Villetta accidentally bump into Kallen, who has been dressed up as a monster, while Cecile meets Lelouch there. And then, Euphie, in the middle of looking for Suzaku because she has something to tell him, unexpectedly runs into a certain someone. A long-awaited reunion is achieved.
Stage 22: The Bloodstained Euphie
1. Euphemia announces the establishment of a Special Administration / Governing Zone, a place where everyone can live as equals. She rapidly gains support among the Japanese who rejoice over the loss of Britannian rule. Upon seeing this, Lelouch, as Zero, attempts an independent course of action, but...
2. The establishment of the Special Administration / Governing Zone as proposed by Euphemia has been decided. The Elevens are overjoyed. Zero, in Gawain, makes his entrance at the memorial ceremony. Lelouch confronts Euphie as both Zero and her brother. At that moment, something happens! (Literal trans: That happened!)
3. With the preparations for Euphie's proposed "Special Zone" underway, voices among the Elevens and the Black Knight members calling out to join the Special Zone are heard in increasing numbers with each passing day. In the midst of that, the day where the "Special Zone" will finally be made a reality arrives. The memorial ceremony is held in a stadium in a grand fashion, with Euphie and co. in attendance. Euphie had previously invited Lelouch to attend the ceremony as well, but there are no signs of his coming. And then, as the memorial ceremony is about to end...
Stage 23: With Sorrow, At Least
1. The Special Zone is embroiled in chaos after a sudden, shocking event. At that, Zero, attempting to receive further support from the Japanese, moves to gain a hold of the place.
2. The memorial ceremony has turned into a tragedy. Using the chaos to their advantage, the Order of the Black Knights launch an all-out attack against the Tokyo settlement. Upon rushing into the hall from which Euphie is to be saved, Suzaku...
3. With an unexpected occurence, the Special Zone descends into unprecedented chaos. Meanwhile, Lelouch silently gazes upon the Japanese, who are angered at Britannia's actions. In the midst of that, Kaguya appears in front of the Japanese, and, as the new guiding hand of Japan, nominates Zero. Lelouch, appearing in front of the Japanese called upon by Kaguya, announces their independence from Britannia as well as the start of a United States of Japan.
4. "I no longer have a choice but to continue on..." The "I" used here is "Ore", which means the speaker is a guy.
Miscellaneous:
1. Stage 24: The Collapsing Stage / The Stage Collapses
2. Stage 25: Zero
3. Episodes 24 and 25 will be aired sometime in April, but probably not the week after episode 23, since they mention a brief time gap.
4. A LuluNana photo caption reads: "Did Nunnally truly not see who killed her mother? One can't help but wonder..."
5. Lelouch sleeps 3 hours a day, and spends an hour each day playing online chess.
6. Sayoko's VA mentions that Sayoko's background will be revealed soon. Also, it is implied that she has a connection with Diethard.
7. The description for V.V. in Animedia April asks "Has V.V. given someone a Geass as well?!" Note the use of the past tense in "given".
8. Arthur is 3 years old.
And randomly, my favorite lines from the GameFAQs discussion because they so funny.
*I'm whiting this out just so the speculation point of this post remains in the forefront.*
- In reference to the Nunnally thing: "I'd personally start disliking her if this happens, even if it would be an excellent plot twist. I mean, Lulu went through all this for her when he could've JUST ASKED NUNNALLY!!"
- In reference to the preview for ep. 21: "C.C.:.........I need a bigger plate ;_;"
- "What's with all of the Cornelia hate? Sure she's not getting much in the way of screen time. I blame her agent, of course. She seems to be likable enough."
- In reference to Lelouch being in the sequel: "Not even Sunrise & Okouchi are stupid enough to Shinn this series, when it pretty much revolves around Lelouch's dream."
- In response to something comparing FMP's Mao to CG's Mao: "Naked Mao = DO NOT WANT"
And this is just awesome:
- "Stage 25: Zero should be a documentary by Diethard. If it isn't, I demand to see one in the 2nd season. If they ever need to resort to recap eps again (I hope not, considering they have 6 months to prepare for the sequel), they should totally make it in the form of a Diethard Documentary. Except all the facts are distorted and even more highly-dramatized due to his unhealthy love for Zero.
'Here we see Zero letting Suzaku -- who is a traitorous dog of Britannia by the way -- beat up his mech because obviously Zero is above doing petty things like bullying the weak. Such grace! Such magnamity! Zero, I will follow you wherever you gooooooooo!11!!1!!'
Diethard Reid Presents: There's Something About Zero."
Okayyy now that all the "facts" are done with, do I still have any room for a post? The main thing I wanted to take all amongst all this mess is episode 22. What happens with Euphie? What does Zero do? What's Suzaku going to run into?
Instead of jumping into my feeling about the whole thing, I'd rather have some people toss out their own ideas and then give my predictions through responses. Although this spoiler only lists the magazine-provided spoiler, any spoiler is free game to use in the discussion. Just say where you got it for the sake of us all having something to examine ourselves.
And congrats to anyone who can make sense of this thing. Dang LJ for not having more cut options.

It's in the GIF portion of the Geass section. I think the Geass section is the second option down once you click on gallery. I prefer giving the site when I have it to just posting the art. ^^;;
