Its not really CLAMP art. I think its quite original geass art, which actually compels me to make art in the same style or follow the style when drawing geass characters.

Peace.
That is what I meant.
People where posting about that Lelouch looked gay-ish because of CLAMP... but the ending sequence shows how the series would have looked if the CLAMP art would have been used 100% of the time.
Particularly I like the Geass art. But I will not deny I was very pleased to see this ending, and desire a Kallen wallpaper / signature with that render.
Those designs are nearly identical if you didn't notice. You can't expect the designs to look exactly as those in the ending as they're handrawn, and you're working with a studio like Sunrise that pumps out stuff with high production values and signature giant eyes (ala Gundam Seed).Originally Posted by RyougaZell
ya i did, but i can't remember it to be THAT gay looking..
wow.. just rewatched the last episode and its exactly the same.. geee... lelouch is gay (like his name) ^^
those britannia officers and soldiers are the only ones who look normal
edit: i won't take that back, because its true :O @ reps ^^

Gay name ?
Lelouch sounds french. Words : "Le + Louche" = The + Shady/Suspect.
Gay Art Design ?
Clampish indeed, it seems that a show can't have both hi-grade art and hi-grade plot line. Wish the art was more like Yukikaze's wih it's own identity instead of some Deja vu.
Btw four pages in two days ? Seems that our Gotwoot community already loves the show.
edit: ~~~
but yes the art design is a bit ..hmm, well "too much"... REALLY huge eyes.. REALLY huge hands and so on but REALLY.. small bodies (its like 50% are anorexic, not everyone, but lelouch for example has so freaking thin legs... it looks like his legs will break if he starts moving... his hands are, compared to his arms, very big too)
well but i don't know why i didn't realize it earlier... maybe i watched too many high-quality animes between the 2 seasons.
btw its just the character design which is somehow a bit "ugly"... the movements from lelouch seemed a bit overdone(at least in the end where he was swinging his arm and hiding his eye like some weird ..well gayboy..) however the movements of the mechas are really well done, i liked that part where that mech covered lelouch with his arm for example. its really rich in detail .. yes.. VERY rich in detail

Wow, I don't see why everyone here is having a Rollo-hating fest. He seems like an upstanding dude. And if anyone was tailing and recording all of Lelouch's movements I doubt it be him, I think it's more logical for it to have been Viletta since there is absolutely no reason for her to be in that school. I think that Rollo might even join Lelouch because he looks up to him like crazy.
Yes Lelouch is too near from Le Louche to not be a hint from french language.
Louche comes from the verb Loucher that means to squint or to have one's eye on
When something is Louche, it means it is suspicious.
I like this name because it has 2 meanings from suspicious, to the squint problem he has due to the Geass.
Lelouch could also be a token of affection towards Claude Lelouch, a french film director. I wonder if other major names can be related to artists over the world.
Regarding the ep, I'm not sure I understood this 7 years leap. It seems obvious that it wasn't 7 years from the last time Zero appeared, because no one seems 7 years older.
For the seal of his memories, I guess it was a sort of emergency procedure applied to him so that his Geass doesn't gain more strenght, as it was starting to be uncontrolable. It could be some kind of recovery time needed for his body to be able to hold and control Geass again, for some time at least.
Then I guess what is missing is why Karen and other blacknights member know about Lelouch being Zero (maybe I lost memory of last season?)
Suzaku seems motivated in killing Lelouch too, there's no hint telling us he would'nt remember Zero is Lelouch.
All the things I really like to do are either illegal, immoral, or fattening. And then: Golf.
uhm.. because karen was there when lelouch faced suzaku :O?
she went after him
@KrayZ33: That's just what you get when a mecha/action studio like Sunrise gets piss drunk and has unprotected sex with an artsy chick studio like CLAMP.
I'm not sure I've ever seen CLAMP create a decently manly looking character without ruining him with either long hair, a frilly outfit, an effeminate personality or all three.
well, but i like their "madness faces"
both that officer in the first episode of season 1 and season 2 had such great happiness in their eyes when killing themselves
<3
I agree with shinta|hikari . His memory loss must of have something to do with VV. Also like we have seen before geass's can be overcome so it isnt a problem that Lelouch got his memory back.
if we take in consideration that he totally forgot about his little sister thats most likely what happened... maybe VV kidnapped her and brought her to the king. (maybe it has to do with her eyes since she is blind?) who knows
but why didn't they kill lelouch?

I posted this a while ago in the wallpaper section, but since someone asked for it here are some wallpapers made from the "clamp" ending of geass r2.

These are just 1028x819 due to file restrictions. Just pm me or reply here if anyone wants the full 1280x1024 size.
@animus - No, they are not alike. The differences are clear, not just in quality. The style is quite different, as can be seen in how they use more realistic proportions for the face and rounder features, unlike the sharp and sleek style of code geass art. This amount of variation is done consciously, not simply resulting from putting more effort or having more time to draw it. This change in art style from the show to the op/ed theme is commonly done in numerous anime, and geass is not an exception now.

Peace.
You are my hero. I wish for the 1280 version of Kallen please
KrayZ33: thanks!
Animus:
I was trying to say that. A studio obviously has its own art and everything. Thus, the Geass art is based on the original designs by CLAMP.
Pure CLAMP art is found on the new ending.
"Not alike" is a huge stretch. That's like saying Fairy Tail's art has no similarity at all to One Piece. The style is not as different as you think. The sharp and sleek style is the result of the use in high quality animation tools and programs. I acknowledged they had slight differences already, but it's clear they are ALIKE. Geass's art actually has more rounder features than CLAMP's as evident by Rollo, the new Blond Knight and the pink haired girl next to Suzaku at the end.
The only really clear differences is Lelouch's hairstyle and the overall larger more bubbly eyes in Geass. The rest are within the realm of human error and approximation.
I think they chose not to kill Lelouch because they wanted to get C.C. I doubt the Emperor will stand for her to run free anymore since he is all for power.
After watching the episode again I can't help but wonder how the hell they intend to escape. I mean they only have 2 real good Knightmares, and after a year I'm pretty sure Suzaku is probably better than ever. Not to mention that if Lelouch decides to use the Knightmare that C.C. found him in it'll probably fall completly apart after Suzaku sees him like always. Maybe the guys from China will help them out.
@animus - What I meant was that its a different way of drawing the characters altogether. Of course it has to bear some similarity to the original, otherwise the characters wont be recognizable, but the changes that are there are conscious deviations. CLAMP style is definitely more round than geass (ie CCSakura) but of course the bishies are usually sleek faced. From your last post, it seemed that you were implying that they are very similar, and that the changes are simply caused by the use of high quality animation tools and whatnot. Im simply trying to say that isnt the real reason for the difference, but rather the artists chosen style of drawing those images.
@Yuki - Here is the other wallpaper.
