yeah that's right Code Geass R2 thread COLD OPENPermalink On twitter.com
-
Raghava (who is here btw say hi) points out that this story could have easily been about an opportunist who sold out a revolution but it's not. That would require someone other than Lelouch being the protagonistPermalink On twitter.com
-
Or more specifically, the fundamental framing of the show. We're going to finish the episode before finishing this thought, actually. Because Lelouch isn't necessarily 100% a good protagonist either so how the show criticizes him will be importantPermalink On twitter.com

"Suzaku Kururugi you traitor! Time to die!" yesPermalink On twitter.com

they have to do an ID check for the special zone. Nothing says freedom like military checkpoints and apartheid. Code Geass has solved colonialism!Permalink On twitter.com

"Do you think there'll be a riot?" "If there is we'll have the perfect excuse for a full-scale crackdown 😃"Permalink On twitter.com

Nothing says peaceful coexists like giant guns pointed directly at unarmed civilians what a moral compass Nunally isPermalink On twitter.com

So Zero invents a super complicated plan to get himself and his ethnicity deported. But wouldn't he need a complicated plan to not get deported? The Chinese Federation, with its tensions with Britannia would probably just take refugeesPermalink On twitter.com
-
More importantly, a settler colony would probably not mind a few thousand of the ethnic underclass leaving the country. This is literally "brown people go home/somewhere else". Like many Israelis would love it if every Palestinian moved to Jordan, Lebanon, or EgyptPermalink On twitter.com
-
"Elevens take your masks off!" bruh we're in the middle of a pandemicPermalink On twitter.com
-
oh they wanna keep them in the country for labor okay that's probably the first good, politically accurate thing this show has done in a few episodes herePermalink On twitter.com
-
it immediately ruined it by saying "if the Black Knights leave Area 11 could have peace"Permalink On twitter.com
-
Raghava says: Code Geass recognizes that this could be a labor issue, but it doesn't care/know what to do with itPermalink On twitter.com

GUYS THE COLLAR GOES DOWN HE JUST POPS IT FOR FUNPermalink On twitter.com

we have lost the plotPermalink On twitter.com

I'm sorry. Let's get deported???On twitter.com

Episode 9 Code Geass says unify Korea, basedPermalink On twitter.com
-
The Chinese Federation has a special form of government that only appears in fiction called "what liberals think communism is"Permalink On twitter.com
-
Also framing Britannia as somehow more prosperous than the clearly less racist and imperialist alternative is... yikePermalink On twitter.com
-
India wants independence apparently. I wanna say based but something's not quite right here. So the Chinese Federation backs Japan over Britannia. India also backs Japan. But they want liberation from the Chinese Federation too?Permalink On twitter.com
-
What's happening here?Permalink On twitter.com
-
Why does he want to overthrow the Chinese Federation? Okay seriously this makes no sensePermalink On twitter.com
-
So this world has 3 countries. Britannia, The Chinese Federation, and the European Union. Also Australia but no one cares. So The EU and Britannia are in active peace negotiations, according to Britannian officials. Australia is always neutralPermalink On twitter.com
-
The only country with the size and diplomatic positioning to oppose Britannia is the Chinese Federation. But Lelouch wants to destabilize it and overthrow its government. Why?Permalink On twitter.com
-
This is like being Fidel Castro during the Cuban Missile Crisis and saying "We need to destabilize the USSR. It's the only way to defeat America"Permalink On twitter.com
-
*sigh*Permalink On twitter.com

Rag and I "agree" that this is shot is what anime was created forPermalink On twitter.com
-
this is the second best shot in the showPermalink On twitter.com
-
let's unpack this dude's weird facePermalink On twitter.com
-
So even Britannia understands that they need to make peace with The Chinese Federation if they want to defeat the nascent Japanese liberation movement. So why does Lelouch want to overthrow them?Permalink On twitter.com

THESE two are gonna get married? Hate it herePermalink On twitter.com

Suzaku: "Did the empress consent to this marriage?" Suzaku she is a childPermalink On twitter.com

Switching to 1.25 speed also Nina is not okayPermalink On twitter.com

Nina is just SCREAMING at this one for being a terrible person but how can a character be a bad person if they were never characterized or given any sort of personalityPermalink On twitter.com
-
So the High Eunics (sp?) are selling Zero out immediately. Which makes us wonder why take him in in the first placePermalink On twitter.com
-
we are past the singularity and the writing of the show has broken downPermalink On twitter.com
-
So they're playing chess. Schneizel moves his king into the way of Lelouch's king thus putting it in danger (illegal). He then declares checkmate (it's not). Lelouch says if he captures the opposing king, he wins (not how that works)Permalink On twitter.com
-
But then Lelouch says that Scneizel just WANTS to lose, so if Lelouch wins he's giving in to his intent and losing... somehow? But the agreement was if he wins he gets what he wants so whyPermalink On twitter.com
-
*bursts into scene* *says racial slur*Permalink On twitter.com
-
she's still racistPermalink On twitter.com
-
Why does Nina get so much sympathy when she's an actual racist (she was racist in this scene) who would rather nuke minorities than live next to onePermalink On twitter.com

HE KEEPS COMING BACK The Jason Todd of animePermalink On twitter.com

I honestly did not think R2 would be this terrible I am surprised. And yet, there are little moments where the show is right about stuff in ways that season one was not. It's a weird situation I'm in. That's it for nowPermalink On twitter.com
