Lelouch vs Suzaku

[one-if-by-land.livejournal.com]

I started Code Geass two days ago, finished it yesterday, and I haven't been able to stop thinking about it since. Meta normally doesn't appeal to me (I prefer fic), but this series has a pretty messy plotline, and I had a hard time even grasping a good feel for the characters. The entire Lelouch vs Suzaku storyline in particular strikes several chords in me, and I'd love to further explore it if possible.

CC once asked Lelouch what he'd do if he had to choose between bringing vengeance to the people who killed his mother and destroying Britannia, and Lelouch said that there were no differences between the two. That statement leads me to assume that ONE, Lelouch is absolutely certain that a royal is behind the murder, TWO, the reason why a royal would perform such an action is a direct result of the Emperor's enforced philosophy of inequality, and THREE, killing the Emperor is the same as removing Britannia's rotten core and everything else can be fixed from there.

Several flaws exist, obviously.

Episode 19 discussion?

Since the last episode discussion post went so well, I figured why not give it another go-around? My original plan was to post these on Saturdays so people had a good day to check out the raw and track down summaries and the like but since I enjoy the discussions myself and won't be around much Saturday, this one comes a bit early.

I'd also like to point out that I am extremely biased in what I talk about to start the discussion so if you have characters/topics you're more interested in, feel free to thread about them as well.

( Hmm, needs more crab AKA Lelouch fails at life. )

Emperor pulling the strings?

Okay I've been starting to form this huge theory of who and why Marianne was killed. There are some spoilers up to episode 19 and also possible future spoilers so don't read if you don't want to be spoiled.
