‘It falls off sometimes.’

Oh boy, this episode was brilliant. I feel so nostalgic with all the things I missed about Geass being back, although it sure is repeating many different scenes in much different situations. Lelouch coming into his Geass, beating the Britanian army is a small skirmish and CC posing as Zero. It’s all good though.

Strangely, Shirley has kind of grown on me since R2 started. She was pretty cute and moe with her lack of cooking skills… Seriously funny as well. XD

Suzaku’s new gig has him traveling the World, meeting new people and killing them. Known to rival armies as the ‘White Reaper of Death’ Suzaku in his Lancelot turned the whole tide of battle and decimated an army single handedly. Man, he is broken. We also find out that he is the Knight of Seven, probably by authority and skill ranked amongst the other Knights of Round. I wonder what the other knights are like and their rankings. It’s like trying to figure out Espada rankings all over again…

I laughed so much at this picture… Not only does it show that LelouchxMillay would be a hot pairing but Rivalz and Rollo are hillarious as Lelouch and Millay stare intently into each other’s eyes. May I just say: Poor Rivalz.It is now confirmed that memories of Nunally have been erased, and Nina seems to be mysteriously absent. We saw her in episode two, probably in the Britainian military and possibly working for Lloyd.

Rollo’s Geass is revealed and it does explain quite a few things. His Knighmare Frame was not actually that awesome, but the combination with his Geass made it nigh unbeatable and able to near enough teleport. Technically though, it seems not to be time stop but actually an area effect when any living being in it cannot move and miss out their consciousness in that time. Everything else - water, mech and Rollo can move around freely.

Rollo is pretty cool when he shows off his ruthless side killing one of their own men to keep the existence of Geass a secret and with his Geass, it was a quick and awesome killing. Would have been better if we actually saw it but oh well. Sadly, he seems way too attached to Lelouch, treasuring that locket he was given… It was pretty creepy.

I love the interplay between C.C. and Kallen. It is hillarious. Also, Hot CC in new outfit is Hot. Hot Kallen in towel is Hot. This scene was amazing! I found it hilarious with the chinese ambassador thinking Zero was actually a woman… and C.C. trying to carry on the joke, with sadly Kallen ruining it. Shown at the end, it seems the Black Knights have been betrayed by the Chinese Federation as Sword Dude (I forget his name) said they would be destroyed now.

This was harsh. Bringing all those prisoners and they are going to kill all the big players who were captured. Villetta shows a little emotion on seeing Ougi on screen proclaimed to be killed the following day.

And the big solution to the perma-geass… It was a contact lens… A special contact lens given byt C.C. apparently will not work if his Geass gets stronger. I wonder what that could entail… more controlling power, more times at each person?

Shirley is adorable peeking on that couple and getting all blushy thinking of Lelouch (with weird headphones on). I like this Shirley better, like the one in the start of the first season. I started hating her when she went emo. Sadly, she will probably get those memories back in the series somehow… and it will all go down hill from there.

This was a very elaborate plan just to facilitate the Geassing of Rollo. But then again, this is what Lelouch is known for, and it wouldn’t be Code Geass without it. I had fun along the way. However his plans failed at the finish line.
