    I'm said it before and I'll say it again, Euphemia massacre is the ultimate filter test in anime. It either makes perfect sense to you or you keep fumbling about it for years.
  • @aResidentDummy
    Jesus christ this debate has got the community heated holy shit.
  • @Magia_Baiser
    Totally misunderstanding the Special Zone. That was not world peace or any kind of good solution, just a step towards even for deeply institutionalized and entrenched racism.

    I will always defend the Lelouch - Euphemia scene and to the day I die proclaim that the only problem is that Lelouch has his back turned when he makes the order, they should have been looking eachother in the eye so that atleast the mechanics of the Geass make sense. Because other than that it has so much going for it; it's the only time Lelouch fully surrenders, sure he gives up some other times, but never surrender. No amount of brute force could ever make him do that, but a truly good person asking him for truly good reasons is the one thing he can't deny, so he lets go. He lets go of the pride, the ambition, the calculation: all of it. It's the only time he's in that state: with Nunnally he puts on the mask of an older brother to protect her, with Suzaku his pride would never let him since they're rivalry is nearly as strong as their friendship and with C.C. every conversation is intentionally made a contest because that's how they flirt. Only Euphemia could make him truly let his guard down. And it's in that state, when he's as far removed from his cold, pragmatic revolutionaire-mastermind self that he ever gets, that he ends up making the cruelest order of his entire life; forcing one of the kindest souls on the planet to commit gratuitous genocide. If you don't enjoy the pure tragic irony of that I don't know what to tell you.

    Season 2 is not bad as they make it out to be (aka what they misremembered it to be) and neither is Rolo as a character. My defense for season 2 is that its first half is messy considering the whole Xingke and Chinese federation plots being on the weaker side of the narrative but everything on the second half is peak Code Geass all the through up to the critically acclaimed ending. We have Schneizel. We have Shirley's death (which was legitimately upsetting if you like Lelouch as a character and what he was going through). We have the Black Knights' hubris and betrayel. We have Lelouch's renewed purpose. We have Lelouch's confrontation with Charles. We have the height of Suzaku's newly changed resolve. More back-and-forth between Lelouch and Suzaku. Them working together. Lelouch as emperor. Zero requiem and the best ending. Etc I would go as far as to say, if you didn't like season 2 then you never truly liked season 1.

    Editor got the song Connor was talking about wrong tho lol
  • Wait not you portraying Euphemia's plan as "world peace" in a story about colonialism lol
  • @Hefizto

    I like both series but what I keep going back too is Code Geass. Got way too much Code Geass Merch.
  • Me rewatching Code Geass, some of Lelouch's plot conveniences pretending to be in school which is Sayoko in disguise when he's away from school while on Zero disguise kinda irks me on my rewatch....... I had no opinion on Made in Abyss for i haven't seen it because it's still not finished but i'll catch up on it later......
  • Leave my boy Kirito out of this! 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
  • @Sakeretsu
    Trash Taste confirmed once again, Code Geass is the GOAT.
  • @kamikaze.33
    The 2nd season of Code Geass is what made me fall absolutely IN LOVE with the series and propelled it to my number 1 spot of favorite anime of all time! I really don't feel the same about the so called "problems" these guys like to talk about... You guys must SERIOUSLY be misremembering things...
