Well this certainly didn’t feel like Code Geass. It seemed like any other mecha show, only with lots of little girls, and probably one of my favorite mechs ever, the Guren. I’m not a big fan of the mech design beyond the Gawain, but Guren’s claw with it’s new power makes me hard. Not as hard as Nunnally makes me, but that’s a different story.
I mean, Kallen already dominated at close quarters. Now her power has been increased, she can fly, she can fire at long range, with both straight and wide beams, and she can deploy the Gefjun Net. I assume we’ll be meeting the other Knights some time soon, since they can’t just let Kallen run around all over 9000 and shit.
I certainly didn’t expect Roro to save Lulu from the situation at the beginning of the episode, but any result where Lulu didn’t have to lie to Nunnally was fine with me. For how much I love her, she’s sadly taking after Euphie, and the last thing this show needs is another peace-spouting retarded woman. Not to mention the scary thing about that; since season 2 keeps paralleling season 1, will Nunnally die like she did?
Even if she does, she and Forehead-chan have already found their match!
Cute blush is even cuter, and I really hope she isn’t a trap, because I hate that. While I want to see more of her, I would prefer to see Forehead-chan’s reunion with her “husband,” but until this Nunnally business is over, it seems Lulu is going to go mopey on us. Which is why it’s good to see this happy face again.
What a fucking nutjob.
Next episode is “The Discarded Mask.” What we can tell from the preview is that Lulu is depressed, Nunnally is moving forward, and Roro prefers to communicate with Lulu when their faces are less than an inch apart. It’s just unnecessary.
Since I have little to discuss here, and almost no absurdities to poke fun at, I guess I’ll just keep watching the Charles scene. Wakamoto as V.V.’s younger brother. Hilarious.
The new Chinese loli’s actually female. She’s voiced by a real 9 year old, Tamaki Matsumoto.
Oh yeah. Orochi already told me that.
How can you not love all the mecha action? o.O
wot wot?! I do love it all. It’s just not what I prefer to see out of this series. I watch it for Lulu’s crazy plans. The plan this episode was “go in, get Nunnaly, get out,” and it didn’t even work. All the action is more of a fun sideshow for me.
hey, since Rolo can control the range of his geass, wouldn’t the computer have just not been in range while the mechs were? Mystery solved?
It’s impossible that the computer, which is located inside the mech, could be out of range while the mech was in range. And if it was somehow out of range, it wouldn’t read target lost, as it would be completely unaffected. I’ve already written it off in my mind as just a way to make the viewer aware that we were seeing Roro use his Geass. I doubt they’ll ever touch on the subject.
On a different note, I’d guess that Roro lied about the time limit in order to trick Lulu later if he needed to. Maybe he can use it for longer, but it might cause permanence? And his Geass being permanent doesn’t seem so bad now, if he can keep it’s range small enough as to not affect anyone.
You call Kaguya-hime “Forehead-chan”? How disgraceful. You monster!
I mean her no disrespect :3
