Oh, and about that Death Note - Code Geass parallel... I've never liked it much, because there are some similarties (genius boy trying to better the world), but I feel like it's completely different.
Raito was seemingly perfect in everything, while Lelouch is pretty weak physically and while Raito wanted to be the god of his new world, Lelouch is trying to create a better place for his sister. Raito would've sacrificed those close to him, while Lelouch is trying to protect them... well, mostly, anyway. I wouldn't feel very satisfied with Lelouch dying like Raito... I mean, I wasn't back then, either (though it was a really beautiful ending in the anime!), but for Lelouch, it wouldn't feel right. Raito was pretty mad, willing to kill everyone in his way and pretty off from his "kill only the criminals!"-way of thinking. But Lelouch... I guess I just feel more sympathy for him, because he was made this way by the murder of his mother when he was such a small child and his envinronment. I was always hoping there would be a happy ending, but meanwhile I think he wouldn't even deserve it anymore... o.o
