What do we really think of Code Geass characters?

R2 episode 21 thoughts

From the look of things, most people in the fandom are ok with Suzaku now and have spontaneously dissolved their almost universal hatred of him as long as Lelouch accepts him (to use him). Is this why some people stopped hating Rolo when Lelouch finally accepted him when he died? Do we all really have our own steadfast opinions of each character in the show or do we just go with Lelouch's flow whatever it may be? I'm not suggesting that we should hold lifelong grudges against anyone and stubbornly hold on to certain impressions, but it helps to look back and see if our changes in opinions are sometimes a bit too whimsical, not to be critical or anything. =)

Like anything else, opinions change depending on a lot of factors. With Geass, my opinion changes based on the characters changing, and whatever kind of different pieces of backstory we get in each episode.

Take Marianne, for example. I was always "BAAAW" over her trying to protect Nunnally, but after ep 21 of R2, my opinion about her changed because of the new information we were given. Now I would like to punch her. And unless I hadn't seen episode 21, I would have bawed over that gd scene with her, Nunnally and Lelouch forever.

I'm pretty bipolar with character selection, but there are some characters that I love no matter what. Still, it all has to do with the above mentioned, at least for me.
