Turn 18 Discussion & wtfness

[recodes.livejournal.com]

I'm still speechless. As usual, please do not click if you don't want to spoil yourselves.

EDITED: Added extra info and discussion points.

I'll just state a few points that we can discuss, because I'm still too speechless by the recent turn.

- Sayoko released Kallen, who joined the fight her upgraded Guren. Lloyd went "NOOOO!! My ---"
- Anya trapped Shinkirou, almost succeeded in pwning Lulu but she got another sync episode and fell.
- Rolo (;_;) wasn't really planning to save Nunnally... "I'll find Nunnally and kill her. Nii-san's only sibling is me."
- Luciano's dead, thanks to Kallen. Funny that Kallen used Luciano's famous words before finishing him off "What's the most important thing to you?"
- Nina initially wanted to use Lancelot. No way, woman. She kept urging Suzaku to "Fire! Fire it!", much to my annoyance.
- Charles' actual whereabout is still unknown, but he seems to be enjoying the show to the fullest
- Kinoshita died in front of Asahina, and Asahina had just told Toudou that Zero's not actually purely helping them because of the Japanese (he didn't say that, but that's what we can interpret).
- Guilford died saving Lulu ;_;, and Cornelia (who managed to escape) kind of felt his presence moments before his death. My pairing...
- Jeremiah rocks in Sigfried, but Lakshata still wondered why the heck was Jeremiah fighting on their side in the first place
- Lulu was intent on killing Suzaku off. I bet he totally forgot his Geass on him was still on.

- I've always known somehow that Suzaku would use Freya, but I didn't expect it would be under this situation. Kallen's upgraded Guren totally pwned Lancelot (which was why Lloyd and Cecil kept urging Suzaku to "Run away, Lord Kururugi!". Nina screamed at him to shoot Freya, saying that it would save his life. Suzaku refused. But before the impact that would surely kill him, the "Live!" Geass activated and Suzaku fired.

Everything was almost in slow motion. Too many things and too many people were enveloped by the pink light. And everything vanished just like that. I felt for Lulu when he screamed for Nunnally before the explosion.

If Sunrise is fucking our brains for real, chances are Nunnally, Sayoko and many others are still alive. It happened to fast for even Sayoko to retreat with Nunnally. Rolo wasn't with them, so he was saved.

When Lulu asked Rolo about Nunnally, the poor kid tried to make Lulu see some light. "But Nunnally is dead!" and Lulu (denial, maybe) harshly screamed "Shut up!". Rolo's death is practically confirmed judging by the preview. Lulu's going to take the phone and the locket and smash it to the ground.

Maybe Rolo would try to comfort him by saying that Lulu's still got him even if Nunnally's gone. And knowing Lulu, he's going to snap and tell Rolo everything about him using the boy for his cause.

The worse part is that Schneizel was smiling triumphantly when Suzaku fired Freya.

Additional:
So Suzaku was the one who fired Freya, but that was only due to the Geass. We know that Suzaku flat out refused to use it. Technically, this makes Lulu the one who's responsible for all the death count. It all comes back to him. If Nunnally REALLy died, then he should be blaming himself for her death too.

T__T

Or did Lulu totally, totally forgot about that? He should know why Suzaku fired when he was at the brink of death. If he wanted Suzaku to really die in battle, why didn't he tell Jeremiah to undo the "Live" Geass on Suzaku?

p.s/ I didn't realise the previous post by someone else since I was typing this at that time. This post runs on another wavelength though, because our emphasis on the events in the episode (plus the info) is different. Mods can delete this post if it's violating the rules, nonetheless.

No one cares for rivalz though D: *sob* Millay...

I appreciate Coolzaku for the "OMGWHYYYYY WOULD YOU DO THAT TO YOUR BEAUTIFUL, BEAUTIFUL FACE????" Ugly shades are ugly.

Angstzaku! OH WAIT--that's how he is all the fucking time.

Urk. Need RAWs now. >_>

[codename-windy.livejournal.com]

I called it! I totally called the nuke being used due to "LIVE" geass the moment they told us it has been put onto Lancelot! I have written proof of calling it!!!

... *cough*

It was very intense episode, especially for one that has so much mecha battles. Normally I'm not too big fan of the fighting episodes, but this one had so much happening that it left one almost out of breath. I'll definitely need to watch it again before being able to really form any coherent opinion of... anything.

[ee970.livejournal.com]

True! I wasn't sure if Sayoko went of her own accord or what. I'm just glad we don't have to see that ridiculous box jail whatever anymore.

Anyway, maybe Lulu was surprised that despite forgetting about Kallen and hanging out eating Chinese food with hot guys, she still went straight to helping him, bawwww...idk


What do you think is up with Charles' airship? I didn't quite catch all that Schneizel was saying at that bit...

[hzuki.livejournal.com]

...MILLAY?!?! BUT she was supposed to get a happy ending..D:

[nekoi-echizen.livejournal.com]

Damn.. Suzaku.. Guilfort... Sayoko..Nunnally!ç_ç
I did expect that Rolo true intention was to kill Nunnally.. ._.'''
I'm happy that Luciano is dead!Thanks Karen!-w-

[abe-abe.livejournal.com]

I hear ya. I was so overwhelmed by this episode.

That "LIVE" geass was a ticking time bomb just waiting to blow and bite Lelouch in the ass.I wonder what he'll do when he realizes that he was the cause of all this.

[anemoneoflight.livejournal.com]

I missed a bunch of scenes actually thanks to a crazy stream. I even got rickrolled in the middle of it too. lol Now that I actually know what's going on I just want to curl up and cry. ;^;

[recodes.livejournal.com]

I want to believe in Sayoko's power too. She just appeared with that awesome shinobi outfit and now she's dead? No way.

Schneizel was a little bit exasperated because they didn't manage to trace Charles' whereabout or what he's been doing after all.

[recodes.livejournal.com]

It kind of crossed my mind, but then I guess I was in denial because that would make Lulu the one who's responsible for Nunnally's death T_T His life is just so full of tragedies.

[mei-yi.livejournal.com]

I haven't seen it, but couldn't resist the spoilers. And now I'm all spoiled.

Now that he's given up on friendship and has had his morality pet stuffed into a metaphorical blender (assuming Nunnally is actually dead and not... hiding...) I reckon it's time for some insane suicidal tactics from Lulu!

What would really suck is if at the end the only one left alive is Nina, who gets all 'Whoo, my nuke worked, let's drop a few more and wipe out those nasty Elevens!'

[green-makaka.livejournal.com]

Nunnaly isn't dead, damn it -_-
I just hope everyone understand it -_-

[abe-abe.livejournal.com]

THAT ICON IS SO GODDAMN FABULOUS.

I think Schneizel said something about Charles' airship heading toward Area 11?

[god-diva.livejournal.com]

Wow. Luciano only lasted like...2 episodes? XD

[failouch.livejournal.com]

If Lelouch is going to lose his mind like many have predicted (including myself, because I honestly don't see a possibility for a happy ending at this point), the "live on" Geass is key to the plot for the reason that Nunnally's dead will be traced back to Lelouch. I think he will realize this, and if she is really dead, he won't be able to handle the blame and it will make him go crazy.

Also, Zero may want to kill Suzaku, but Lelouch doesn't. If someone else agrees and wants to elaborate on this point, go ahead, because I honestly can't think straight enough at 6am to explain myself here. XD

[muhi-kira.livejournal.com]

AT LAST!!!!
KALLEN is back!!!! and beat Luciano hahahahaha

i'm in shocked to know Guilford so fast he ....
i think Sayoko and Nunnally can't be dead yet was in the episode show us their dead body? (if not they will be alive)

[ee970.livejournal.com]

Ah, okay. I thought he said something about "oh, well he won't make it to the battleground" or something but I must admit I was only half-paying attention.

Oh yeah, and re: Lulu and Freya, it seemed to me that Lelouch did not believe that Suzaku really had a giant handheld bomb. He says "there's no way I would believe anything you said," actually. So he wouldn't think Suzaku'd shoot something he didn't believe existed...oops

[failouch.livejournal.com]

I CARE FOR RIVALZ ;___;

[failouch.livejournal.com]

So did I. But I don't think she was far enough away from Tokyo to escape the impact of the bomb. ;_;

[chansonxchou.livejournal.com]

I honestly think both Suzaku AND Lelouch forgot about Suzaku's Geass at that moment, or else Lelouch would have thought about what Suzaku might do. But then again, Lelouch also didn't believe when Suzaku said he had a bomb strapped on him, so maybe Lelouch thought it was okay?

[ee970.livejournal.com]

I don't think anyone can have a Britannia-related anything that isn't fabulous *sparkle sparkle* ;) I'm supposed to be making one with Suzaku and/or Kallen beating up Failouch, but sounds really hard D: I haven't gotten that far.

[failouch.livejournal.com]

lol, I knew someone had to say it.

[mei-yi.livejournal.com]

I really didn't expect him to die so soon... what with him being a Knight of Rounds and somewhat badass. Gino, Anya and Suzaku have been in the fight for ages and managed not to get offed. Gotta be honest, he doesn't look too great in comparison.

[neltis-screi.livejournal.com]

it was my first time to watch cg stream in full. mine didn't go insane. XD I'm lucky.

.. or prolly not.

Turn 18 is pure wtf. argh.

[mc0820.livejournal.com]

Hey, it's around 6am where I am too! :D

At this point, I really think that their friendship is pretty much irreversible. When Lelouch is in his Zero mode, he's still Lelouch, but with a purpose, and clearly the severed friendship from the last episode indicates that they're over. Especially when Lelouch ordered Kallen to kill Suzaku, there was no hesitation in the way he said it.

...and yeah, it's 6am...
