About the "lost friend" line, I do believe Suzaku thinks Lelouch is beyond redemption, that Zero has destroyed him, and that it is Suzaku's fault as well for not stopping him when he could have. (There is debate on this issue, regarding Suzaku possibly using Nunnally and his words about Japan not needing Zero as a warning to Lelouch to BACK THE HELL OFF before he has to take action.) I also believe that Suzaku was prepared to let Lelouch live without his memories. Since "Zero" was effectively dead. I also note that after telling Kallen that "This is Lelouch," his words to Lelouch are "Zero, I will stop you." He only refers to him as Lelouch again when he is answering his question. Note: "I told you, Lelouch. I would change Britannia from the inside." His expression. It's almost like he's not even talking to him, he is repeating something he always told his friend. I think Suzaku has distanced the Lelouch he knew from Zero to a point. This is no longer the friend he cherished. He cannot get him back. So yes, he has lost him.
I love this whole paragraph. Does that means he's ady give up on Lelouch? Yea, I'm still doubt about what Suzaku role in capturing C.C. and killing the bait. If he knows the whole details about it, there should be he knows, then he know Lelouch might be killed. Did he really not care about it? Considering Nunnally, I wanna believe in your analysis. I know Suzaku knows well about what Nunnally needed.
About the methods both using, I agree with you it's perspective. Yes, really, we can't say which one will succeed in the end. How a student can overthrows the whole empire or a japanese can change from inside? *giggles* But method-wise, I like Lelouch one. His way is more quick and direct and it's whether you'll win all or lose all. If you don't have the ability, you can't win. For Lelouch, he's arrogant enough that he think he can do it. Seeing him speaking of it's easy to release Area 11.
About Suzaku method, I just wanna note that his way is possible but it need unnecessary turns and take times. If he never capture Zero I think he still at his position like before. He might become Knight of the Round but surely he need to wait for years. Do the Japaneses can wait? Don't make me wrong. I believe both of their method have same chance to succeed but I'm more favorable to Lelouch method.
