Y halo thar.

So because we had to wait a week before the next episode is aired, I got thinking. I was wondering how other people thought the series would end. I mean, it could go so many ways and directions and they'll probably end this season with a BIGASS cliffhanger as well.



1.) I'm one of those people who believe this whole entire thing was orchestrated by the Emperor. So I am kind of hoping that at the very end, when the Emperor's dying or something to that effect, he'd publicly announce that the rightful heir to the throne is Zero.

That could go a couple ways, I think. Either way, Zero's identity as Lelouch Vi Britannia would be revealed. The Order could go crazy with this new knowledge and do who knows what. Or Lelouch could be the new Emperor of a empire that distrusts him more than anything else. After all, he did go around killing off his siblings and a shitload of Britannians. I wonder how he'd manage in that situation, though he does have the charisma and intelligence to sway some people.

Still, the Order would have a lot to think about. They hated Suzaku for betraying them and helping the Britannians to reform it from the inside. They also used Zero (or rather he used them) who in turn betrayed the Britannians to reform society and eventually the world. I'm not sure exactly how they would react to the fact that Zero's Britannian (I mean, Diethard is Britannian and they don't seem to particularly care), but Zero is still their leader and a symbol of their fight for freedom. Goodness, I'm talking in circles here, so I'll stop.

Oh, haha, Nina's reaction. Mmhm.

2.) My inner fluff-fangirl wants Lelouch and Nunnally to have a happy reunion. Then he would wave Rolo over there and introduce him to Nunnally as her new brother. Fluuuuuff. Though I seriously doubt this would happen, I can dream, right? ;_;

3.) "LELOOOUCH!"
"FATHHHEERRRR!"
*gunshot*

4.) Um, I got nothing.

So does anyone else have any ideas or theories on how the series would end? Or maybe how they'd want it to end regardless of whether or not it would happen?

Also, I have a kink for Zero being revealed publicly to a huge amount of people, whether it's to the Order, Britannians, or the world. Are there any fics that pull this off?

The problem is the Emperor being behind everything seems too obvious. Yes, both him and V.V. look like they are the "final" bosses, but something makes me wonder whether there isn't someone else behind everything. Mainly...I'm just really suspicious of C.C. and her little constant conversations with Marianne. That and the whole disappearance of Marianne's body disturbs me. Wouldn't be surprised if it was Marianne doing the manipulating behind the scenes this whole time. Now, hopefully my paranoia is just paranoia and Marianne will stay dead. But man...when bodies go disappearing in anime it's usually a bad, bad sign. Or a good sign if you happen to want that character alive. I'd prefer if Marianne stayed dead.

Paranoia aside, I could see the Emperor choosing Lelouch to be the next Emperor. I think the whole thing with Lulu is very amusing to him. And according to his survival of the fittest mentality if Lulu can win, then he deserves to be the next Emperor. But he has other things on his mind besides the empire....this whole "killing gods" and sword of akasha thing seems to be his main concern more then Lelouch. The whole Lelouch thing seems more like a side hobby to him.

Yeah, it does seem obvious. I can see them pulling a Final Fantasy and having the REAL final boss be someone we've never seen/heard of. Also, disappearing bodies do usually mean that the person is either alive or someone's using it for their dastardly deeds. Haha, Marianne planning the entire thing and starting it off with her death; I half want to see that come true.

I never really understand his true intentions, the sword of Akasha business. Eh. And yeah, Lelouch hasn't really been high on his list of priorities. I mean, it'd be so easy to just shoot the kid with an assassin early on the season. But maybe it has something to do with C.C., who knows.

Sorry about my incoherent response. Overall, I do agree with you. :D (And your icon. Aaah, Rogue. She's so cool.)
