Random...Lelouch's surname...

[alleona88.livejournal.com]

old name Lelouch vi Brittannia
new name: Lelouch Lamperouge

does anyone know or wonder where he got it? does it have some special meaning or something?

or am I just over-analyzing things...


*edit*...I think I've made everyone dispute against one another just coz I was curious...O.o

but all of your answers are feasible and well, all I can add now is that with the series is still after all, on-going and more info will be coming up soon (from the official site, other sites, etc) which would then finally lead to answer (I just wonder how long that will take) and hopefully no one here will be going "I told you so" like some five-year-old... >_>

Are you sure? I could have sworn the anime mentioned that Lelouch's mother was an Ashford. But then after his mother's death the Ashford family was in trouble, and that's why Millay's considering an omiai.

Yeah, I'm certain about it. There was a debate about it a while ago (on translation issues) and the bottom was that the Ashfords were Marianne's supporters, not her relatives, and that everything they had gained from the Empress, had been taken away from them after her death.

On which episode was that? :o I seem to have missed it...

That was a mistranslation on some sub. Lelouch's mother isn't related to the Ashfords at all. You got that notion from Shinsen, right?

seems like it's time to re-watch the whole series in chinese subs... >.>;;;;

I'd do the same... if, you know, i could read Chinese, XD
But i don't think i watch that ep with subs at all, lol.
*is really confused at this moment*
