regarding kallen

[stuffedpanda.livejournal.com]

Do you think it's possible that she's joined Nunnaly's quest for worldwide peace on changing the empire from the inside? As you may have noticed, she appears alongside all those Brittanian folks in the new opening(which is mighty hot, I must add). I think it'd make sense. After all, we last saw Kallen when Nunnaly finally opened her cell gate.

Oh, and another thing I might question. Rollo most likely killed Shirley, but will Lelouch think that Suzaku killed her? You know how he goes analytical and would possibly assume it was Euphie's revenge...

You made great points that I overlooked. That answers quite a bit, actually.

But I do think Suzaku's absence in Shirley's death scene is weird. He was looking for Lelouch when it all happened, why was Shirley on the right track to finding Lelouch (some 18 year old school girl) have more tracking sense then Suzaku, a trained military soldier. Either he has absolutely no sense of direction or I smell plot twist or plot hole or random anime coincidence that shall never be explained.

Your icon is ftw btw xD

He was helping out with the fire department and security people and not really looking for Lelouch.

He would have his hands full with that if he thought that all the smoke and such + knocked out security guards were the work of terrorists unrelated to the Black Knights who are all exiled and out of Japan. Maybe he was looking for Lelouch but with so many people around, he wouldn't go running to find someone that he has bitter feelings towards.

eta: went back to refresh memory and this is the last time we see Suzaku in the episode:

Aah thanks, I watched this ep on veoh and the subtitles were tiny.

But I still think he would've looked for Lelouch, because of his suspicions of him still being Zero and since he did think this was a terrorist attack, and because he does still believe Lelouch is Zero, I think it would make sense for him to go look for Lelouch. But obviously he prioritised the people first and helped the fire fighting... even though there was no fire was there? lol

Suzaku is a soldier first and foremost. Yes, he would take care of the people first and then go off and do the Zero thing. The only reason he ever prioritized Zero before is because he had backup or was CRAZY at the time. Suzaku acknowledges his responsibility, and we have seen this since 8 when he chose to let the Zeroes go.

But yeah, Suzaku would be the last person Lelouch would ever suspect of killing their friend. The two have their issues, but they've always tried to separate civilian and battlefield.

Ahaha for some reason I loled at that xD

Yeah, he might have gone to look for Lelouch but his duty certainly comes first. Kind of like episode 2 of season 1 where he really wanted to go find Lelouch but had his hands full piloting the Lancelot. He's pretty good about doing what he needs to do first. Except for the time he was crazy. :3

Where there's smoke, there's fire? lol. Probably looking for a bomb or something too.

SUZAKU IN THE WAR AGAINST TERROR

[stuffedpanda.livejournal.com]

Oh, and this just occured to me. Even if he doesn't have a passing thought that Suzaku could've killed her, he's still likely to be pissed at Suzaku for letting her die. But in the episode preview, he looked more like he had given up.
