R2 Ponderings from a crazed loon.

[saft.livejournal.com]

During my very boring shift @ The cinema last night random thoughts skipped among my mind...One of them being "Why is season 2 of Code Geass referred to as R2?" I thought of all the possibilities and nothing came to mind- nothing until I thought of the most recent episode...

"Refrain" - Why that you may ask? Well because of all the crack this season currently has to offer XD

Why say you fans of Geass? What other cracky reasons can you think of as to why is R2 referred to as R2? :3 Feel free to delete mods if you think this post is indeed somewhat ludicrous.

because they know my name starts with a R :DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

i believed this for 3 whole seconds XD

[saft.livejournal.com]

LOL is's a reasonal explanation I'm sure!

[dorkodile.livejournal.com]

Because the romanization of Rolo's name (pronounciation wise) is RoRo. >D

[saft.livejournal.com]

As in "RoRo's takin' over this hardcore anime-scene ghetto yo-yo"? XD

[dorkodile.livejournal.com]

RoRo is in your ghetto, seducing your Onii-chan.

[saft.livejournal.com]

But then my hopes for more Lulu/Kallen will never happen D:

[punky-psyche.livejournal.com]

maybe it was like a Rebellion the second or they squared the rebellion? just balling some spit of ideas...

Round 2 *strikes bell*

[shieyume.livejournal.com]

I guess that the 'R' in R2 somewhat stands for 'reconstruction'. I think the word was mentioned quite a few times in the new season (if not, just kill me -_-) and I also remember seeing a magazine scan of the Geass cast where the term appears as well.

[starlady38.livejournal.com]

I don't know about crack, but "Rebellion 2" would be my guess.

[lavaliere]

I'm with punky_psyche in thinking it might stand for Revolution, the 2nd. Because Lelouch is starting another revolution after the failed first one, and also because it's the second season. 8D

But... that's logic.

Otherwise, I think it's the "RoRo" answer. xD Only because he's soon becoming my Yuugi for the Code Geass fandom...

[saft.livejournal.com]

...I now demand that someone give Rolo a millenium item <3 I-..It just makes so much sense now!

Photoshop + No Sleep = Bad Manips

[lavaliere]

I probably shouldn't open Photoshop at 3:30 in the morning...

It works, oddly. Rolo is a cute, shy, quite, and polite young man with a darker, psychotic side. 8D

Re: Photoshop + No Sleep = Bad Manips

[saft.livejournal.com]

Of course it would have to be the one item that's likely to make him even more darker and psychotic than he already is!

*Now totally imagining Thief King Rolo whut* XD...

Re: Photoshop + No Sleep = Bad Manips

[nelotizapu.livejournal.com]

I love you. :O And I am sad that I can't use any of my crack YGO icons right now.

[vspirit.livejournal.com]

I've always thought that it's abbreviated from 'The Second Rebellion'.

[10sugars.livejournal.com]

I 4th the choice of 'Rebellion' it would make sense after all.

[emifujiwara.livejournal.com]

I think it's "Rebellion 2" but I'm not sure. Reconstruction can be possible, too. Or maybe revolution?

( Or maybe it's Rollo :D )

[saft.livejournal.com]

Lulu The Poo and Rolo 2? :3

[tenshi789.livejournal.com]

DEFINITELY :D

GODDAMMIT LOOK WHAT I DID.

[saft.livejournal.com]

Lulu The Pooh~!
Lulu The Pooh~!
Uh-...Damn I forget the lyrics XD But the image of Lulu in his Zero costume holding one Blue balloon bothering the Britannians for JUSTICE! PIZZA! Honey is making me roffle.

Dear lord someone Photoshop it already XDDDDD

[chickee1.livejournal.com]

Rest and Relaxation! no srsly

[rkold.livejournal.com]

Because the real mastermind behind the current crop of offering geass powers like pizzahut promotiona is R.R.! Just you wait XD;;;;

[faye-naruse.livejournal.com]

A question just like this was brought up in a KKM comm, regarding the Kyo Kara Maoh! R OVAs XD

There were suggestions like "Return" and such :D

[saft.livejournal.com]

Someone must be on the same wavelength as I am! :3

[faye-naruse.livejournal.com]

It was like deja vu, ne? ;D

[therealkaichan]

Well, I'll make the obligatory "Sailor Moon R" reference.

When I was your age, I had to ride 5 kilometers on my horse to WATCH anime!! *shakes cane*

[hyper-euphoria.livejournal.com]

xD AHAHA! Thanks, this has made my day! ♥♥♥

[rkylo.livejournal.com]

Well, I also thought it was from "Rebellion 2" or something like that

But it fits more to be Rollo 8D

Brotherly love is well accepted everywhere :3

[nelotizapu.livejournal.com]

Rebellion makes the most sense to me, but I'm also thinking... RR? You know, like CC and VV are "c two" and "v two", R2 could be RR. ...who just hasn't been introduced yet. >> << >>;

[fujiappletan.livejournal.com]

You can't say it's "rebellion" with an Utena icon. Screaming some "REVOLUTION!" is now called for. *is shot* xD

[nelotizapu.livejournal.com]

Shut up, I can say what I want. XD Besides, Spinzaku is revolving Suzaku is that one doing the revolution, Lelouch is doing the Rebellion, I think.

Rebellion: "Rebellion is a refusal of obedience"

Revolution: "A revolution (from the Latin revolutio, "a turnaround") is a significant change that usually takes place in a long period of time"

:]

Now I want Suzaku and Lelouch dressed up as Utena and Anthy. :OOOOO

[fox-holland.livejournal.com]

Revellion.

[tyg.livejournal.com]

Seconded. XD

[saverellawish.livejournal.com]

AHAHAHA.

I'm so glad they fixed that o_o

[arence-heart.livejournal.com]

Rebirth, Reminisce and Redemption are the obvious answ..... oh wait, wrong fandom.
What's with anime and jupiterletter R?

[dark-alone.livejournal.com]

I just thought it was for: Rebellion 2. Sorta like Act 2.

But it can't really be like 'Return' as it is with Sailor Moon R, because with the 2 on the end that doesn't make any sese, as that would mean CG was returning for a 2nd time, when this is it's first return.

[dark-alone.livejournal.com]

Also I feel like i've had this conversation before. Either here, or on animeost.net, not sure where.

[heirloomrose.livejournal.com]

i agree w/ azurial
i think its
round 2
like a game

[chansonxchou.livejournal.com]

I think Taniguchi said that the R stood for a lot of things like, Rebellion, Round, Reconstruction, and anything. The 2 was so for people would know it was the 2nd season.
