Now this was my favourite episode so far :D
The surfing Zero moment warrants a 10/10 on it's own for me :lmao
But overall I'll give it 9/10, I still expect better episodes <3
Yes...
Rolo extraction....
8/10

Until now it was the worst episode, I wasn't expecting Rollo to change sides so easily. And IMO the whole plan of making Rollo protect Zero was full of flaws , but it worked perfectly as if it was normal that Rollo would see the attack and protect Lelouch without thinking.
Besides, wasn't Rollo supposed to be the only pilot of the Vincent ?

10/10. I thought the manipulation of Rollo was so fucking awesome. Lelouch realized that the guy is a nancy boy deep down inside and so he used that knowledge to turn him over to his side. He's a great actor, going on about how the fake memories were 'real to him'. For a very brief moment, I thought he actually meant it.
So I don't care what others say... Well done, Lelouch!

I thought it was pretty good. Zero's plan was pretty good. Some nice mecha fight. Though the Rollo thing was pretty gay. In fact, Rollo in general is pretty gay.
Also this episode showed that Lelouch is clearly entering the "evil guy" role. I can't help but think that this might result in a bad end for Lelouch and a good end for the other annoying faggot. That said, the way he manipulated Rollo was pretty ingenious.
Next episode looks pretty discouraging tbh. It also doesn't help that Suzaku is making an appearance as a student. :facepalm

It wasn't the fact of Lelouch being a bastard in the way he uses him , but the way Rollo didn't shot him in the beginning and agreed with his terms even if they weren't that great, and how Lelouch had so much faith that Rollo would save him.

Well, who knows? It's certainly a possibility... Though there's other possibilties as well. but we'll see.

Agreed. It's probably the firs ttime in his life that Rollo have been in such a state of confusion :laugh

8/10. The lowest score I have given so far. Not a bad episode, it just didn't live up to my expectations. I read the Newtype spoiler beforehand and I thought the episode sounded better than it turned out to be.
I guess I am a sucker for cheap thrills...I wish the Black Knights about to be executed had shown more of a reaction to Zero showing up. I wish Lelouch had found a way to beat and kill Guilford. But oh well...spoilers for episodes 6-7 sound interesting.

What are you talking about? His plan wasn't to make Rolo protect him, it was for him to protect Rolo from the sniper. He didn't expect Guilford to throw the spear at him.
Anyway I didn't enjoy this episode as much for some reason. I guess I just didn't like the fact that he used the same trick with destroying the battlefield. Plus I thought the "surfing" thing was kinda corny.

That makes it even worse, what kind of plan is becoming defenseless just to get the trust of an enemy ?

Rollo becoming Lelouch's emotional bitch should be interesting.
Franckie
04-27-2008, 06:21 PM
I give a 5 since I'm generous.
This episode solidified once again that for Lelouch to be successful, other characters must act like complete idiots. Rollo folding instead of pulling the trigger based on the promise of someone who he knows is manipulative and has been proven to deceive on many occasions.
Britannia allowing Zero to go one on one instead of just capturing him as soon as he tries to interfere.
Lastly, Rollo being reduced to a complete emo dumbass who is now nothing more than another one of Zero's puppets.
Wesley
04-27-2008, 06:27 PM
Yeah, having hundreds of enemy prisoners about to be publicly executed, I would think that'd make good bait for a trap, with an effective demonstration of what happens to traitors if nothing else comes of it. Oh well...

Eh, another 8/10. Mindfuck, Rollo in Vincent joins Lelouch, the keikaku is moving forward (a bit at least lol).
Would have been a solid 10/10 had, like Sunny said, Lulu give Guilford a nickname like "Apple-kun". :LOS But i guess that would be too reminiscing of last season's ep. 4.
Also, lol gallows, wtf?

9/10 It was really a great episode,It was nice how Lelouch mind fucked Rollo into bringing him onto his side,then soon enough he will milk him of all of his intelligence and then discard him like trash,perfect planning from Lelouch. Guilford and the Glaston Knights getting pawned by the Black Knights was awesome,the Geassing of the sniper,was well played out. The only thing I didn't like was the return of Suzaku.:facepalm

He probably jacked the last Vincent. And Lelouch expected him to be piloting this one.
Thats why he ordered the orders he did, if he could to get it so he could mindfuck Rollo, if not, to do away with the fucker.

I was torn between 8.5 and 9 out of 10, but I ended up voting 9. It was certainly the least predictable episode so far.
The episode opened up rather confusingly, showing Rollo assassinating a random person. It confirmed what I'd guessed about Rollo after seeing him for the first time - Britannia placed the best assassin possible next to Lelouch; an assassin with a geass.
The focus then quickly switched to the end of EP1. I had assumed Rollo would've fired and discovering the gun was empty, but Rollo did nothing and listened like a good boy to the main character (you've got to love how Lelouch just knew Rollo would give him the chance to talk). Lelouch persuaded Rollo to wait until the next day, promising he'd give him C.C. if he let him live until the prisoners execution, going on to question Rollo about if his life would get any better as as a result of another successful mission.
Something interesting that Lelouch confirmed during his predictable escape from death was the information that Rollo's geass doesn't actually stop time; it has an effect on peoples perception of time. What I don't understand is how Lelouch knew in advance about Rollo having some sort of time controlling power, setting up the room and counting in preparation - Lelouch never saw who was piloting Vincent during EP1...
Anyway. After this, Lelouch spent the time he had before the execution trying to work Rollo into his plan to free the prisoners. Using the information in the book he picked up back in EP1, he eventually managed to gain access to some information that gave him some confidence about his plan: To use Rollo's desire to have a family, his only weakness, against him - Who would've guessed it?
Back at the Chinese Embassy, it turns out that the scene at the end EP3 was done in order to make out that the Black Knights had killed the ambassador, allowing the Chinese to get rid of the queer without issue. Once the ambassador had been disposed of, everyone waited to see of Zero was going to turn up to save his comrades, the Chinese allowing the Black Knights inside the Embassy grounds to gear up in case Zero turned up.
During all this, Rollo made preparations of his own for the upcoming event: He needed to get close in order for Zero to do as he said he would and hand C.C. over to him. The Vincent, which had for some reason been passed onto the local government since EP2, was going to be piloted by some random person called Kimmel...until Rollo injected him with something and took his place.
Shockingly, Lelouch didn't turn up to the execution until the very last second, driving up to Guilford on top of a generic knightmare. Even more shockingly, Lelouch didn't actually plan to duel with Guilford, instead picking a surfboard as his weapon of choice for the duel. Then, after some sort of plan Lelouch had put together off-screen, involving what happened with the platforms collapsing during EP23 occurring when Lelouch spoke certain words, he used the surfboard to surf down into the Chinese Embassy grounds, along with the prisoners.
Rollo wasn't happy about this turn of events, pursuing Lelouch into the Chinese Embassy grounds. However, Lelouch had already planned for this in advance... planning to block a bullet that was aimed at Rollo, using his own knightmare (knowing his plot no justu skills would allow him to survive) in order to get Rollo's trust and show his brotherly affection. Fooled by this, Rollo blocked a javelin attack made by Guilford on the defenceless Lelouch.
Once everything settled down, a flashback was shown, which explained the bullet aimed at Rollo: Lelouch had geassed a Britannia soldier to do it, also telling the soldier to destroy Rollo if things didn't go to plan. After this, Lelouch started acting like Light from Death Note and made his feelings about Rollo perfectly clear; describing him as trash that he plans to throw away at a later date.
The episode itself ended with Suzaku (joy...) standing in front of Ashford, then finished with the awful EP5 preview that was 'leaked' a good few days prior to this episode airing - It looks like the worst episode so far.

Question: Can anyone explain how Lelouch managed to gain access to someone who works at the platform control place? I didn't get that during EP23 of S1 or in this episode...

Anyway, at some moment i was "wtf iz this", specially with lelouch over complicated plan to get rollo at his side.
And how brittania let zero in just like that. If they see the ultra dangerous zero, shouldnt they like, i dont know...shoot him?
I still enjoyed the battle scene.

During this episode, Lulu is shown at the police station or something of the like. He is shown giving the officer a paper about Rivalz missing bike, only to find that Rivalz just found it a moment later. He did this so he could geass the officer, who in turn is the one who triggers the platform collapse.
In Ep 23, I don't remember tbh. They may have not shown it, I'm really not sure lol.

Anyway on topic. I did quite enjoy this episode, its one of the better ones so far. I'm wondering how things will work out with Rollo, but Lelouch should be able to make good use of him if he can keep him under control.

Rukia

I'm surprised people are giving Rollo crap for being so easily manipulated. I dont find it all that surprising. A lot of people would have probably been manipulated in that situation. And let's face it...Rollo wasn't chosen for this mission because of his personality. He would probably fail any psychological evaluation given to him. He was given this assignment because of his geass.
Graham Aker
04-27-2008, 11:41 PM
Rather boring for him to use the floor parts again. Can't the writers come up with something new and creative? Seriously?
It was good that Viletta does have feelings for Ougi. Hopefully, they'll meet sooner. Other than Schnizel and Suzaku, this little subplot is about the most interesting thing in R2 so far.
Rollo' manipulation into Lelouch' bosom was fair. He did replace Nunnally for one whole year which pissed Lelouch off very much. An eye for an eye I should say.
However I am hoping he will come around and start to care and treat Rollo as if he's his little brother.
And Suzaku appearing at the end of the episode was the best thing to have happened in the series thus far to both characters, since only against each other, directly, will they be able to evolve.
6/10
It wasn't as exciting an episode, which is what CG is all about, as episode 4 of season 1, or the previous episodes. R2 has really yet to exceed the brilliance of Season 1 imo.

10/10. I care not for the infinitesimal details. The point is that I have fully enjoyed this particular episode. There is no reason for me to seek for a bunch of immaterial flaws within something created for the sake of entertainment. I am honest with myself. As long as the episode meets my expectation and satisfaction, as episode 4 had, I am fully willing to give it a perfect score.
Despite what others may say, Suzaku is a necessity to Code Geass. The show needs someone that we love to hate, otherwise it would be pretty bland. Next week will be something to look forward to. Some Suzaku to Lelouch interactions would be mighty interesting considering the knives hidden under their sleeves. It's the calm before the storm as they say.

10/10 for me, I didn't read any threads and avoided this place for a day so I wouldn't get spoiled and god was it worth it. The best thing about this series is watching Lelouch outwit and outplay everyone. It is just so exciting seeing it play out and they way he manipulated Rolo. I just did not see that sniper thing coming. Also a few of Guildfords men died as well, after a full season they finally get some action and then die so easily lol
God I love this show and its writing :)

04-28-2008, 02:22 AM
I voted a 10 also...probably an overreaction but screw it. I thoroughly enjoyed this episode personally. Overall the action was great and Rollo being manipulated into Lelouch's puppet is the perfect role for him far as I see it. And the way it was done was great to watch cause u knew Lelouch was just acting the whole time. In the end I ended the episode with a smile on my face. What more can u ask for?

Hey Graham...what's up man? I don't have any problem with your score...but I remember you as being extremely active in the Gundam 00 thread...and that memory leads me to a question. I started to dislike Gundam 00 at the end because they never really gave me a reason to ever care about any of the characters on that show. 6/10 aside...you do think that Code Geass R2 is a better show than Gundam 00, don't you? I don't understand how anyone could prefer Gundam 00, so if you do...i'm curious to know why.
~Shin~
04-28-2008, 09:08 AM
Whoa I don't know about that. Second half of 00 is WAY better than R2 right now. Especially the last few episodes.
Well, who knows? It's certainly a possibility... Though there's other possibilties as well. but we'll see.
Not the way he's going right now. Usually the more someone goes on the "evil" side, the less chance they have of a good end.
Though I doubt we'd get a really "happy" end for this anime anyway.

04-28-2008, 09:17 AM
8/10 for me as well
I was expecting that Lulu actually beat Guilford one-on-one in duel though..yeah, you know, for more surprise..but he ended up with the same tactic that he used during Black Rebellion...although the surfing with the shield scene was priceless.
as for Rollo, he actually got mindfck by Lulu so badly...I guess he really lust for the love and bond so badly...and kudo to you, Lulu, you definitely is the best actor for a teenager. I guess Lulu have the potential to become the famous and greatest star actor as well if he decided to settle-down in the end..

Probably true. I just hope it won't be entirely pessimistic as such though.. :oh

As for EP23, I discovered why there are so many self-destruct ready platforms in Japan: Anti-earthquake countermeasures put into Code Geass to help Lelouch win.

I have no idea whether this is confirmed or not...but it also would show how dangerous Rolo can potentially be. I read it off of animesuki.Lelouch: The only agent left is Villetta?
Rollo: Yes. But Suzaku is here. Kill him?
Lelouch: Enough already.

I dunno if that is Rollo's work or not. It might just be that the other agents have been given a free day or soemthing, or perhaps the entire project have been abandoned or put on hold, considering the recent developments (the orignal pilot of Rollo's knightmare was supposed to be from the secret service, was he not? So now they might make some changes within the organization to flush out potenital Zero allies/Geassed people...
Rukia
04-28-2008, 11:52 AM
I think it's disappointing that Lelouch isn't giving him the green light.Seriously, isn't it time to kill Suzaku already? Rolo can kill him nice and quick given this scenario. He shouldn't listen to a damn word Suzaku has to say. He should just nod to Rolo and tell Rolo to eliminate him. Rolo freezes everyone and twists a knife in Suzaku's gut. Game over. No one can stop Lelouch...he wins.

7/10, the show still hasnt started rolling yet anf hopefully these episodes are only to set us up for awesome things to come. Rollo's emotional breakdown scene wasnt very good either and, although it was till fun watching lelouch manipulate him, it was somewhat predictable. Still, as ever, it was enjoyable to watch, and lol at Villetta's face when she found out Ougi wasnt dead.

Blah, 5 out of 10.
Worst episode by far. Whoever said Lelouch needs people to act like dumbasses to win really summed up this episode. Rollo really dropped the ball imo. He had a load of potential from last episode, but ended up lame. Most of Lelouch's tricks were copies of last season too :/
Li is starting to be annoying too. I don't see what the hell he's up to yet so I'll let his stuff slide for now, but I didn't picture him as a devious bastard.
Probably the only one to say this, but the best part was Suzaku's appearance. I'm REALLY looking forward to the next episode after this. More Shirley, Suzaku, and the first main appearance of the Knights... :gar

Gave it a 7/10.
More of the outwitting plus reused stuff from Season 1, and I wasn't surprised to see Lelouch succeed in his plans to save his former comrades from execution. Makes up for a meh episode. Six points for that.
Although the highlight is definitely Lelouch mindfucking Rollo. That adds one more point, and hence, my rating.

A-lot of people are mad that they are re using stuff from season 1. I mean come on guys seriously, the black knights lost so now they have to re build and start over . So re using some tactics are not bad at all.
Lulu using rolo's emotions against him was also a good touch, why are people complaining about that? I mean the kid never had a family at all and liked the experience of a family during that whole year with lu lu and now you all are pissed off that he is not standing up and killing lu lu? Sheeesh, some people here d o not understand emotions or I should say they really dislike how the emotions where played.
5/10? honestly ratings always where skewed.

Yeah, I said Rollo dropped the ball and he did. I understand the emotions but you're right, I'm definitely one to disagree with them. For someone to believe Lelouch so easily, when he knows all too well about the tricks Lelouch has pulled in the past... That's just not believable.
First Lelouch promises C.C. (doesn't fullfil that) then he promises to treat Rollo well if he joins him (won't fulfill that). It's obvious Rollo has feelings for Lelouch, but his character has just turned into a helpless follower now. Just another pawn for Lelouch. It's sickening how easy it was :/
As for the replays from last season, it's not that as much as it's all just Lelouch being a copy of Kira. Everything he's doing is just ridiculously similar to DN as much as it is similar to last season. Sunrise should know not to clone so many themes.
5/10 is a liiiiittle harsh maybe, but none of my favorite characters played much of a role and ..yeah, it wasn't that creative. Ohgi, Villetta, and Kallen were the only one's that made it bearable to me xDD

How do you know that rollo knows everything what lu lu did in the past? No confirmation has been given about that and the emperor probably only gave little tid bits. Plus you say easily, it seems you do not understand how important those emotions are to him and he obviously does not want to lose them. It appeared easy to you but technically speaking it was not easy for rollo.
First Lelouch promises C.C. (doesn't fullfil that)
Full fill what? Do you know what he needed to full fill? No, no one does. So you cannot say he failed at something no one knows.
then he promises to treat Rollo well if he joins him (won't fulfill that).
How do you know this? Just because of his rage at the end of the episode because how pissed off he is for his sister gone and a fake coming in and replacing her? come on you cannot make statements like this as fact when little to no information can back it up to make it truth.
As for the replays from last season, it's not that as much as it's all just Lelouch being a copy of Kira. Everything he's doing is just ridiculously similar to DN as much as it is similar to last season. Sunrise should know not to clone so many themes.

Little harsh? It is harsh professionally speaking but I have to realize that I am on a internet forum and vast opinions on topics are to come about. It's just some seem really out there =/.
Do not take my post as an direct attack at you, that was not my intention.

How do you know that rollo knows everything what lu lu did in the past? No confirmation has been given about that and the emperor probably only gave little tid bits. Plus you say easily, it seems you do not understand how important those emotions are to him and he obviously does not want to lose them. It appeared easy to you but technically speaking it was not easy for rollo.
That's true. Rollo may not know much, but he's smart enough to fathom some of it. I believe there have been instances where he's reflected about who exactly Lelouch is and how he came to be his brother/███. He's a naive character but not a fool.
I also understand that he is fragile. His feelings can be somewhat warranted because of this ...so yes it's true that it wasn't easy for him. It's just my opinion that he was fooled too easily. Not a fact. Just my opinion ;]
Full fill what? Do you know what he needed to full fill? No, no one does. So you cannot say he failed at something no one knows.
Lelouch had to hand C.C. over to Rollo. That much was stated very clearly. The time and place was in question, but he definitely didn't do that. Even Lelouch knew it, because he ran away without trying to explain anything.
How do you know this? Just because of his rage at the end of the episode because how pissed off he is for his sister gone and a fake coming in and replacing her? come on you cannot make statements like this as fact when little to no information can back it up to make it truth.
Yeah, that's definitely not a fact. Lelouch could turn out to like him, which I would definitely support ^__^ I was just going off of how he felt at the end of this episode.

Yeah, and why does season 2 have to do the same? :arg

I really didn't think 5 was that bad a score ...I mean there are still 4 levels below that. If 5 is like an "F" then maybe my score would be more accurate as a 6 (a "D" in other words). I didn't think it was a failure, just needed a lot of work. Hopefully that eases it a little for you ^.^

ooo about your promises I thought you where talking about CC and the contract with lu lu. My bad on that one.
but lu lu does deliver him C.C, she was right in front of rolo but rollo did not want to do it because of his emotions. so lu lu did full fill his promise their.

Loved the way Lelouch manipulated that fag Rollo. As if he needed even more similarities to Sai from Naruto(Who fails hardcore).
Suzuaku didn't bother me and seeing the Black Knights together again was nice. Gets a 9/10 from me.

It was okay, the way it unfolded wasn't really what I would have expected. Like, why in the Light would the executions be so close to the Chinese Embassy? Are they (Britannians) staying on such a small area?
