Code Geass ends on R2?

[syaoranmew.livejournal.com]

According to this report, Ookouichi Ichirou said on a Newtype interview that he finished writing the script for Code Geass R2, and also said it wasn't going to have a continuation or a partial end, but a definitive the end, fin, etc.

Anyone has source on this?

Edit: Thanks to lulu_quality, we have a source.

God I hope so.
Ending each episode on a cliffhanger is a horrible way to keep an audience.

[kittendreamz.livejournal.com]

I think it's worked amazingly fine so far. ^^

[animenutcase.livejournal.com]

Yes. You have to admit they've done a good job of keeping people interested.

[zerorevenge.livejournal.com]

Ledouche becoming Emperor of Britannia?

Probably not...

[telepathic.livejournal.com]

yeah, the plot is kinda all over the place this season, so it's better to end it with hopefully a strong conclusion :/

[mossygirl.livejournal.com]

If this can be confirmed, it's great news in my book :D I'm not much for series above 50ish episodes.

[miribai.livejournal.com]

This does not bode well. They've asked more questions than answered so how in the hell do they expect to satisfactorially answer all questions and seal all deals in 13 or so episodes?

Short answer: they can't and the ending will be a hodgepode cram of epic WTF

This is Truth.

[saverellawish.livejournal.com]

This makes me worried...

[miribai.livejournal.com]

I don't want this just as much as the rest of us. But it's the only way this can end.

[saverellawish.livejournal.com]

True. I just hope your wrong. 13 episodes is still a long time. Though it seems very unlikely, maybe they will be able to answer everything.

If not, maybe if we complain enough they'll grace us with a movie or something.

But I'm still hoping it ends well...

[breepants.livejournal.com]

Amen.

Minor stand off between Suzaku and Lelouch as well. Then a mech will break it.

[kiriska.livejournal.com]

God, this ending better not suck. D:

[schizofragile.livejournal.com]

Please make the ending damn good ;___;

[saverellawish.livejournal.com]

Oh, I do hope it doesn't end badly. I will be so disappointed.

[fujiappletan.livejournal.com]

NOOOOO. I wanted a third season since there is just. too. much. stuff to answer. >___>

no source, but...

[rainbow-cnxn.livejournal.com]

Good.

[interstellar.livejournal.com]

That's good to know. Much as I love the series, a definitive end is better than a cliffhanger. It would be interesting if they left it open enough to do something in the same universe with a different set of characters, though. *shrugs* And eh, I'll dissent, I think they've still got ample time to tie everything up well. ^^;

[mintine.livejournal.com]

oh god if so there's no way they can tie everything up in the next 13 episodes they're going to screw it up so baaaadlyyyy

[tiggerpuss.livejournal.com]

yes I have to also say that it better not suck! I don't want it to end but if it does they can at least make it a good ending....

[sugar-dustbunny.livejournal.com]

I'll probably be sad when the end comes, but it's better to end it than to drag it on for who knows how long. I'll be happy as long as the ending is done well.

[konkona.livejournal.com]

I personally love long animes (longer, the more you'll get to watch it before it ends), and it MUST be a good one to be long.
Well, so far, I watched until ep 10, and I think that they're still working on some climax/suspense episodes (gah, 13 seemed like a big ep).
I would also love to have a second ep of Code Geass (well, depends on how well they'll do the whole thing), so that I can watch more Lulu x C.C., hehehehe. ^w^. If they're going to end it in 13 eps time (which I don't think they have much time), then it better be good, or better, great~
Let's just hope it'll be great, and if it continues, well, let's hope it's even better! ^o^

[konkona.livejournal.com]

*second season of Code Geass (well----

[chiapetzukamori.livejournal.com]

you mean a third season ^_^

This is a great show and all, but yeah, an R3 would seem a bit....excessive. Unless it was all about the cult because the Brittanian empire (or the OotBK) was/were squashed like bugs...maybe that'd be interesting lol

let it end

[akisowner.livejournal.com]

thats certainly good news! i want a strong, proper semi happy ending for Code Geass.if they extend the anime i fear we will have more filler episodes. Lulu will be crowned as emperor of Britannia and Suzaku will be his knight of one. Nanully can marry Gino! hahaha.

Re: let it end

[recodes.livejournal.com]

I APPROVE OF YOUR ENDING XD XD XD

Re: let it end

[prideofdestiny.livejournal.com]

me too XD!! AND PLZ DON'T KILL LULU!! I just hope they don't screw the series with a bad ending!

[neltis-screi.livejournal.com]

oh god.. the ending better be good. PLS.

[kamuro-ishigami.livejournal.com]

I am quite relieved. I am already of the opinion that too much drama, crack and surprise(?) twists have already gone into the anime making it over-seasoned to me. If I have to watch another season of to-be-expected unexpected twists, I am going to have to give up on CG..

[nayami.livejournal.com]

Party on.

Anyway, I'm not sure why everyone's surprised by this news since CG was meant to be a 50-episode series from the start. According to magazine episode summaries, it sounds like the mysteries of the Geass power will be explained in episode 15, giving them time to prepare for the finale. In any case, if they're going to expound on the Geass universe in any way after R2, it would be in the form of Picture Dramas and SE.

[syaoranmew.livejournal.com]

Thanks for the scan, lulu_quality!

Well, I think everyone is surprised because there's a bunch of things to happen on the plot for mere 13 episodes or so, which is around 1/4 of the planned.

[recodes.livejournal.com]

YES PLIZ!
Because waiting for each episode is a b**** ~_~

[bijou-cho.livejournal.com]

For me, something as popular as this having a 'definite ending' makes me sceptical, even if they say so, since OVAs and movies are not accounted for and I am almost positively sure it'll be milked for all it's worth, alas.

Could be a better alternative than a let down ending though. We shall see.

[starryburst.livejournal.com]

I have, like, a smile on my face but I'm shaking with worry. How are they going to pull this off? D: So many ends to be tied!

If they make Lelouch die, swear to God, I'll be screaming profanities at the screen, along with mentions on how much of a Death Note rip off that was. They'd better not do that. Well, I'm really hoping...

And Rolo, my love... I'm always wondering how he'll meet his bitter end. Because obviously he will. ): If only Lelouch could triumph over Britannia and Rolo would survive and be his queen...*sighs* XD

I think it's apparent to me that Britannia is going down. I mean, all the Darwinist philosophy with "the survival of the fittest" thing, you know they're the bad guys, and they're gonna get drowned. But I really don't think Sunrise will give us a happy ending, though. At the very most, a bittersweet, sad-ish one. You know, with C.C being the only one alive after it all, narrating.(This is why I don't think C.C will perish or anything; we need a narrator)

I'm afraid. Very afraid. xD; But I'm ready. I think.

[gatekeepers-21.livejournal.com]

I have a feeling it will end like Death Note.

And I'll go cry in my corner.

[cr-balmung.livejournal.com]

Please don't jinx it~ D:

[julitina.livejournal.com]

Considering they got through this much already in the first 13 episodes, perhaps they can end it well in the final 13. Optimism.

[tenshi789.livejournal.com]

I don't want them to kill Geass by having another season, but I still kinda wanted more Geass episodes.

Oh well, hopefully it just ends well xD

[pizza-pimp.livejournal.com]

I kinda thought so because it would really be dragging it out if they went for a third season. But I do say that the story line and the timeing that this show came out is great and I hope that Lelouch ends up becoming immortal and just dissapears! I think a LOT of people would be angry if he died but would be okay if he just dissapeared. I have a feeling they will end it well and that they will answer everything and give everyone what they want...hopefully.

[assoil.livejournal.com]

I kind of have mixed feelings. I want it to end, and be a good series, but I still want more!

I think I'm gonna cry when it ends; I'll miss my every Sunday routine.

[maivenirs.livejournal.com]

Oh no...I still want to see RURU everyday..
it's my main energy source..
BTW,CG was illustrated by Clamp,
and i dont' think it will end so quickly ..
