Code Geass continues to amaze me, with ep. 11 being the best so far I think, or at least the best fight wise. The battle between the Lancelot and Guren was amazing. The fluid movements, attack, counter-attack, oh shi-! how did she block that. Yeah, I loved every second of it. However, the great thing about 11 is how much C.C. there is. She was everywhere, being mysterious, defending Zero, and looking cute. Plus, we almost learn her name! That’s a very big almost though. I love how sunrise can move the plot without telling the audience what is going on at all. Look at C.C. All we know is that she has a great ass, sexy voice, and loves pizza. No explanation yet for all of the weird flashbacks she has, what geass is, or why is she immortal. Oh, and she’s lost her memory. Now they tell us that. Still, I found it very cute how C.C. wanted Lelouch to say her name in a ” warm ” way. All C.C. wants is love! And Cheese-kun.

This is one disturbing image I DON’T want explained.

Right now, Code Geass is a show that loves giving it’s viewers the vaguest of hints of what’s going on. Hell, it’s not even information, just ” Hey here’s this imagery of WWII in a flashback. Figure it out for yourself, “. Take the new mystery of what’s wrong with Suzaku for instance. C.C. showed him a lot of disturbing images, most making no sense. The most interesting were the images of his father and Lelouch’s mother, with Suzaku yelling ” I had no choice! “. Could Suzaku’s family be responsible for the death of Lelouch’s mother? Hard to say right now, but clearly something traumatic happened between Suzaku and his father. Will Suzaku have some kind of Geass power now? I don’t know if he does, but one of the upcoming episodes is titled ” Geass vs. Geass “. Very interesting.

Actually, I’ve now noticed how Suzaku and Lelouch haven’t really seen eachother at all recently, outside of their Zero/Lancelot roles. For a series meant to focus around their interactions, their not interacting a lot. It’s more like two seperate shows, with Lelouch and his harem over here, and Suzaku and his harem over there. Of course, the harems are the best part of CG. I love how angry Karen looked when she saw C.C., like ” Who are you sleeping with now? “. In the future I bet it’s going to be a love triangle of Lelouch, Karen, and C.C. versus Suzaku, Shirley, and Euphie, with Lelouch and Suzaku lusting after eachother. I gurantee it. Now, for the female side-character I love this week, it’s the mature and angry Cecile! I just melt at Kikuko Inoue’s voice, especially when she’s yelling at Lloyd. So great.

Lloydo-san!

So right now Code Geass is probably the best show I’m watching, even if I do get frustrated with all the mysteries the show hasn’t answered yet. Though with rumours of Code Geass having another season in the fall, I guess there’s plenty of time to answer them. CG has off this week, so I’ll have to wait till next week for more C.C. goodness.

ZEROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!

Oh, and Orange-kun lives. He’s now the Sergey of Code Geass.
