Frackin’ pwned! First, let me begin by saying that if you’re watching an anime, you should have already, completely,  suspended your ideas of reality. And when watching Code Geass, one should simply indulge in the characters and take in the plot twists as they come. Also, you should really stop reading now and go watch this [...]

Yes, this post will be plastered with spoilers, so please, stay aware from this post at all possible if you do not want to be spoiled. Haven’t done this in a while. Noticed an increase in the number of R2 posts, so I decided to do a metareview. I looked at twenty one posts; sorry if [...]

“Commence Human Instrumentality Destiny Plan Ragnorak Junction!” Holy Brain Fart Batman! Finally, the “Answer all” episode comes to life in the form of Episode 21. Well, enough my of theatrics (I’ll save it for Queen Dopplepopolis), let’s dig in straight into the episode! With Charles and Lelouch finally trapped together in the Thought Elevator, [...]

Chi! Dr Freud would be having a field day with this episode! Did Anya get her mad Knight of Six piloting skillz via Marianne the Flash? Now Marianne has blinked out of her, will she now just revert to being a clumsy meido who is constantly being forced to wear ever more outrageous outfits? Or will [...]

What I Watched What I Expected What I Got All this deep thinking philosophical stuff makes my head hurt, and not in a good way. So Lulu's parents wanted to stop time and create a world without lies? And they had to use a thought elevator to do so before Anya decided to merge with Lilith? Oh well. Either way, turns out Marianne was also a bad guy, Nunnally was blinded by her own parents,

I don’t know if anybody else has mentioned this, but there’s one question nagging me in all this crazy Geass hubbub. Thanks for asking, Miya. And it’s only appropriate that you be the one to ask, because the question is this: Who was responsible for divying up the screentime for the side characters; the less important [...]

Wait a minute…immortal Charles can’t get geassed, but “god” can? O_o I thought Charles wanted to rule the world forever with his immortal body, but it turns out he just wants everyone to merge with the Data Integration Thought Entity…or the lesser version of it…his bad-ass-ness just dropped to zero…>_> Marianne, what the hell? All this time [...]

Really? Your grand master plan is the same old “rid the barriers of humanity” crap that every other villain uses? Weren’t you the one that said “men are not created equally,” and now you’re going to make them all equal? Way to be a hypocrite, Emperor. I bet you’re going to say you love your [...]

This is a ’summary’ post of R2 - 21. While I do not usually write summary posts, I have given in to the requests of a friend and promised her to write properly on the occurrences of this episode. While I am in doubt whether the post will come out decently (reasons can be seen [...]

Despite having gotten hold of this game way back when it was released circa March, I never got around playing this visual novel spinoff of the ever so popular Code Geass, solely due to my poor understanding of moonrunes. Giving it a go once again 5 months down the road, my comprehension of the Japanese [...]

OBLIGATORY DISCLAIMER: Geass is a show I stopped taking seriously (story and plotline-wise) around every since I saw Guilford’s commemorative Cornelia-hime-sama plate on his mantle - around episode 5 or 6. As a result of that, I have started watching this thing raw since I figured that if the writers and the animators will not [...]

Wait when did I start watching Evangelion? This episode reminds of me of the end of Evangelion where we learn the show was not about monsters and robots, but the human instrumentality project. It is needlessly complicated. I get that Jupiter was thought to be the king of the gods. But it is just silly how [...]

Loli’er Anya The Big Revelation episode. I can’t say that it comes as a surprise considering how much the story has hinted at it, especially since I was never really convinced that Charles was evil. He lacks Schneizel’s eyes, and that hairdo is just begging to be not taken seriously. I’m sure everyone has already watched the [...]

Man, the last 5 minutes of this episode completely makes up for 21 episodes of terrible writing, and I say 21 epsisodes because this episode was no better. Marianne and Charles and their ridiculous God killing crap were just another gimmick to advance the plot. It seems the writers can’t get enough of spending large [...]

One for the road Charlie, we loved you. Wow, now I’ve seen some really great trolls on 4chan and the like but I’m not sure anyone has trolled me as much as Sunrise just did. This is seriously epic-level trolling of everyone who watches this show. That being said this episode had so much [...]

We're getting towards the end of Neon Genesis Evangelion... whoops, sorry, I mean Code Geass R2 now, and you'd expect some of the big plot points to be getting wrapped up. That's indeed what happens here, although at the same time the series seems quite happy to open a whole new bag of jelly babies at this point. Yes, I really couldn't help but work a little Evangelion-related joke into my

So it seems that the talk of the town lately in regards to Code Geass has largely been concerned about not only how (not) “good” it is as far as writing and execution, but the relationship between being “good” and viewer enjoyment. Personally, I am within the group that considers Geass R2 a highly enjoyable [...]

First thing first, I probably should put a disclaimer saying that this entry is full of my opinion since some people actually think that what's said here is a fact. It's shocking, I know, I always thought my opinion is well, my opinion and not a fact. Anyway, "pillage and plundered" were the first words that came into my mind upon seeing the 'development' shown in this episode. This episode is so out there that I give up trying to find some sense in the plot. I've said many things about this series, both good and bad, but one thing that I appreciate the most out of this latest development is that I have no idea where this speeding train is heading. Having said that, I hope I have the chance to bail out in the case that it's heading towards a wreck. At the moment though, the feeling is more of that fast, dangerous and uninhibited insanity, like anything can happen any moment now. I'm also amused that Lelouch and Suzaku are back together and rule the world with their evil, iron fists. It's like every fanboy's nightmare and every fangirl's dream finally becomes a reality.
