POLL: How do you think Code Geass should end?

[rininjapan.livejournal.com]

Well by now, we've all (if not most of us,) been shocked, hurt, dismayed, and utterly confused by the eps 24 and 25 special. I have my own thoughts and opinions on the matter of who actually 'won' and 'lost' that little scuffle (for those who know what I mean, think about the consequences of each person LOSING, watch and think about the last few minutes very carefully, and you should be able to figure out who COULDN'T HAVE lost, and who really did lose.)[Poll #1031662]

Nah nah that's cool. Each to their own. I think it's pretty fascinating you like the ending of 25 the way it is. Technically, it was a nice, if not mysterious, and well-rounded ending. I just prefer the Ep 23 version myself. At the end of Ep 23 I was pondering for ages about the final phone call Suzaku made to Lelouche and at that point I was wondering if Suzaku actually KNEW who Zero was, and was saying goodbye to him as a friend. That phone call made that ending really nice for me.

So why did you like the current ending? I guess vague is okay - I'll know what you're talking about anyway.

If Code Geass takes a turn down the LOST path I'm going to be really upset!

It's odd you mentioned Evangelion in your poll since that's another show that I felt I didn't need the movies to wrap the story up for me. I liked the philosophical episodes of that show very much and though I did love and adore both Death&Rebirth and End of, I didn't feel it was needed.

From a media point of view, I'm interested in things that break stereotype because they stand out more and actually require you to think.

If they DID leave it at that it seemed most likely to me that Suzuku would have lived due to Lelouch earlier in the show using the Geass to tell him to live. Since there IS a second season planned though it doesn't really need too much thinking about... but I do still think that Geass command will haunt Lelouch's plans as it progresses.

Ooooh point. I totally forget about the Geass. Interesting. This could be a draw!

That's one of the big factors I was keeping in mind when he gave that command :) I'm sure it's going to be important later. For whatever reason, be it lingering friendship or fluke, I don't think Lelouch will be able to kill Suzuku because of the Geass.

Whether Suzuku will be able to kill Lelouch after all they've been through is another matter... We shall see, I suppose.
