So today, I was looking at ANN's R2 episode page with [profile] suruma, and the three next episode titles caught my eye:

2008-08-24 20. Emperor Disqualification
皇帝 失格
2008-08-31 21. Connection of Ragnarok
ラグナレク の 接続
2008-09-07 22. Emperor Lelouch
皇帝 ルルーシュ


I, of course, was shocked at the Turn 22 name, so we looked up "Ragnarok" on Wikipedia, and got this:

In Norse mythology, Ragnarök (IPA: /rɑgnɑrɔk/, Old Norse "Final destiny of the gods"[2]) refers to a series of major events, including a great battle foretold to ultimately result in the death of a number of major figures (including the gods Odin, Thor, Freyr, Heimdall, and the jötunn Loki), the occurrence of various natural disasters, and the subsequent submersion of the world in water. Afterwards, the world resurfaces anew and fertile, the surviving gods meet, and the world is repopulated by two human survivors.
tl;dr: A major battle that results of the death of major figures, natural disasters and the world is flooded with water. Two human survivors eventually populate the world.

So, what does this mean for future episodes, or I am looking too deep into this? Is Sunrise going to screw us over with this?

Also, I'm not sure if I tagged this properly.

Hmm, I thought I should give my two cents because I always make up the craziest theories and, even though I don't believe them myself, sometimes they turn out to be true because it's Geass after all...
You know what the Animedia spoilers for turn 22 (right after the ragnarok) say. That bullshit about extreme powers clashing, and "fate of numerous men and women being changed, interwined, and together they begin to spin a new story". I was like 'haha adam and eve?' when I read this, but well, the Emperor wants to destroy this world and create a new one, and he is all "just as planned" because of the way Schneizel is fighting. And there is this Ragnarök thing, I have limited knowledge on it because of that online game, lol. But I know how it is all about a big fight between opposite forces that destroyed the world and then after BLOWING SHIT the survivors (four survivors... right?) repopulated it etc. And well, as we all know Geass sometimes bases facts on pre-christian mythology. So... I'm afraid they will really destroy the world and all...
Then again, I only know about spoilers up to turn 22. I don't know if there is something else out there.
Anyway.
...

What am I saying? SORRY, IT'S THE ROLO EFFECT. But if it's really their intention it's worth a laugh or two. Enjoy.
