(SPOILERS) Code Geass R2 predictions/rumours

[kiichan]

Ok, it came to our attention I WILL be a mod eventually... so yeah that although we have a spoiler warning on the main Geass thread it is a warning that I rather simply call "Post-spoilers" i.e. talking about the series after we've watched the episode OMG Lelou's face, did you see Guren? and the such.

However, we also have "Pre-spoilers" (see where I'm going with this?) i.e. when we predict what may happen in the next episode or tell of a rumour we've heard. This isn't that great for the people who don't want to know what's to come and would rather watch it and be shocked when so-and-so reappears or when Lakshata is bringing in a new mech. SO, this is the thread for PRE-spoilers.

Remember, normal thread POST-spoilers
THIS thread PRE-spoilers.

So, now that we've all understood that and I no longer have the need for capslock I have one thing left to say
OMG THAT THING ON LELOU'S HEAD FOR THE NEXT EP LOOKS HILARIOUS! .. ok I lied about the whole capslock thing...

"So the question of who’s Lelouch’s double turned out to be not really a big deal at all since they revealed the answer first thing this episode. More interesting is the fact that Sayoko appeared to have kissed Shirley, and Lelouch doesn’t know. It probably means that Shirley will be a key figure again, at least in the short term, and that’s good news if you’re a Shirley fan. It also makes me wonder again if the resilience of her as a potential love interest will ultimately mean anything (i.e. Lelouch ends up with her). He’s always had a soft spot for her, so it wouldn’t surprise me if that happened.

The other significant plot development this week (aside from all the Chinese Federation stuff) was the conversation between C.C. and Lelouch about the religious organization/cult. Assuming this is related to C.C.’s powers and maybe the whole Jupiter thing, it finally feels like the story is starting to delve into some of the background topics that we’ve been waiting so long to hear about. They didn’t, however, really explain what happened between C.C. and Anya during the battle, or what C.C. appeared to realize from that.

Speaking of Anya, there’s the interesting angle developing where she knows Lelouch’s royal identity, but may or may not have told anyone else. Given that she’s now enrolled at Ashford, chances are pretty good that she’ll ask him about it, especially since it appears that we’re headed for another Ashford-centric episode next week. On that note, I do question what the purpose of next episode is since it feels like they’d be better served either trying to get Kallen back or searching for that secret organization. We’re already about halfway through R2, so I hope there’s no more dallying around with another Arthur-chase type episode. Having said that, the preview had this brief shot that really caught my attention. At first I thought it looked like Cornelia, and the fact that she’s holding a sword seems to support that, but then I remembered that Miyake Hitomi is supposed to make her debut voicing a character named Meeya I. Hillmick next week. It’s hard to tell from the preview who it really is, however it does make me very curious about who’s going to show up next week. "

I agree that it does seem to be a school ep, however, it could be important because of the now attending Knights of the Round. We may even see Kallen take it upon herself to try and get out.

My interpretation of the dialogue between Lelou and C.C. is that there is a main council/group of some sort of all the Geass distributers. C.C seemed to be Master of this group, and V.V. took over from her, the question is who took over from V.V. So either, C.C and V.V left/were thrown out because of C.C deciding to do what she want and V.V. alliance to Britannia, or you can only be master for a certain amount of time since they live for so long.

I may be reading too much into it but I enjoy doing so ^_^

On the note of shirley- lets not forget before euphie went geass crazy and japanese kill frenzy, she was going to talk to lelouch about being zero, having remembered details and finding that letter about him. It was never resolved in s1 so im sure itll come up again. saying that im pretty sure gino is gunna fuck things up royally (ha pun of the week) for lelouch considering he is always sticking his nose in!
I'm more interested however in the 'enhancements' orange-kun has had. HIs robo eye span like craxy and it sounded vaguely geass like in s1 and there was a lot of camera time on it. that said the guys who experimented on him were involved with cc and geass too. I'm wondering if orange has been given geass and can control it as he seemed to be able to do weird speedy things in the end of s1 (yes he was part robo) so my ultimate question is is- why bring him back- aside from being awesome plot twistage!
