It was a very good episode, but it gets epic because everyone can feel thats a stepping stone for some truly griandiosisimo Episode 8
Nice scene with Kallen and Lelouch.
I know it's been said somewhere before, but Kaguya's new outfit makes it look like she fell out of a magical girl anime. It just seemed really out of place.
Though she doesn't seem to have a problem with Kallen and C.C. being Zero's other concubines...I guess she's still very traditional. I was beginning to have my doubts.
Not too much else to talk about. This was more of a transition episode.
And again we had the same battle idea: the ground you walk on disapears and you loose... idea applied to water.
In a way the difference was slightly refreshing.
All the things I really like to do are either illegal, immoral, or fattening. And then: Golf.
It was odd to see Lelouch all hormonal and stuff, and then playing Zero like 5 minutes later. I guess they have to do stuff like that for the sake of the story.
I don't think there was anything wrong with that. The meeting with Kallen and then all the student council members just made him realise he could still have other reasons to fight for and not only Nunnally. The whole "Zero exists for Nunnally" claim was a bit thin in any case, in my opinion. A major part of his motivation had to come from the simple fact he enjoyed being Zero, manipulating people, and commanding forces. He is the emperor's son, after all.Originally Posted by rockmanj
Kaguya is quite unbelievable. I had no idea she is like that, thought the couple of earlier scenes in this series already had begun to make me suspicious. She would be a total husband worshipper. I also find it kind of nice C.C. has begun to interact a bit with other people than Lelouch. But there are still far too few scenes with Lelouch and C.C.! Come on, what's the deal here!
I really liked the scene between Kallen and Lelouch, I never thought he'd allow himself to seen in a weak position to one of his subordinates. I never thought he'd also come that close to using refrain either.
As much as I like seeing Zero's typical plan of blowing something up causing a landslide/buildings falling or in this case causing a bubbles(wtf?) to destroy his enemies, I want to see more drawn out battles like in the last few episodes in season one.
As for the next episode, It seems that the OotBKs wont be simply going on with the special area of Nippon or whatever it was called.

I rather liked this ep, despite it being a transition for a bigger event.
Glad to see C.C.'s smile, at least before Kaguya saw her. And on that note, more of her talking to Marianne. After what she said, as well as how she doesn't seem urgent in having Lelouch fulfilling his part of the contract, it's almost as if her giving him a Geass is so she can watch over him and give him a reason to live, possibly Marianne's wishes.
Side note: Kallen's always hanging out with the Black Knights, I wonder where she got that outfit from. It was rather cute though.
If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~
All Hail The Bermuda Triangle! I actually thought that was a pretty elegant idea for them to use.
When I was 13 I read a book about bermuda triangle.
One of the hypothesis regarding the sudden disapearing of ships was that at some point there is a massive submarine gaz realease, when that happens the density of gaz+water dramatically drops and ships sink in seconds... or litterally fall under water+gaz.
No floating ship, no matter how strong, can do anything against that unless they can fly... same goes for submarines.
I don't know if the idea cam from the same kind of source, but it's nice they used that one.

I thought about it, and it really is in Zero and the Black Knights to join Nunnally's Zone.
- From the outside view of other countries, it looks like Zero is actively interested in peace.
- Obviously not a popular idea with most noble Britannians, the royalty, the knights of the round, and especially Suzaku. Suzaku wants nothing more than to kill Zero right now, so if he or the military attempts to kill the Black Knights, Suzaku will be incredibly discredited, and gain the ire of all the other nations in the world as utterly dishonorable.
- It remains a consistent thorn in the Emperor's side.
- Though the Elevens will be leery of it now, if they do get attacked again, they will completely forgive Zero for abandoning them a year ago and solidify his power base.
- Zero and the Black Knights can easily fake another attack on them to accomplish all of this, only under more controlled circumstances so as not to implicate Nunnally this time. Perhaps blaming it on the Purists like he did with Orange-kun.
A good episode. Not a lot of action, but seeing Lelouche struggling with the possibility of fighting against Nunnaly's desires was just as good. I always enjoy the episodes where they take some time out from him as Zero and show the more fragile conflicted side. The scene with Kallen especially was very good. A possible step forward in their relationship maybe?
I'm not at all surprised he has decided to "go along" with the special area again. After all it's the perfect opportunity for Lelouche to not only to get a face to face with her, but also to abduct her again.
Hmm, what's Refrain? My memory is bad...
I'm guessing some injection to erase memories?

I liked the episode a lot, but I must admit I was surprised with the ending. Although, like people have stated, it will surely lead to great things. Like Ryll pointed out, anything done against the OTBK at this moment will discredit Suzaku and the Britannians (and by proxy... the new 'nihon', although this may not be Lelouch's intention, cause it would discredit Nunnally)
Loved the scene with Kallen, even if she slapped him. But it was necessary cause Lelouch was falling fast. I am actually surprised CC did not care if he did not return... she said she was contempt to have him alive... but the refrain could have fried his brain... no?
Also... interesting to see Kaguya implying that the three of them are / will be Zero's concubines (even if she did not explicitly (sp?) used this word). Somehow season 2 has been using this theme almost every episode. The CC / Lelouch / Kallen triangle... which Kaguya wants to make a Square...
EDIT:
Kenren: A drug which Kallen's real mother used, which ended frying up her brain.
I may be wrong, but to me Lelouche was provoking her so that she understands the inner troubles Lelouche is facing. Karen demands are as hard to Lelouche, as the one he tells her wanting to share the things only a woman can give...

I don't think so. It looks to me Lelouch was honestly lost and discouraged at that point, and feeling he had nothing to lose, he decided to screw around a little with Kallen who came to preach at him. I don't know how long he had been sitting there with the drug, hesitating, but what he did with Kallen wasn't that different from deciding whether to use the drug or not.
Indeed. He even went as far as to tell her to 'comfort' him, the way only a woman can... ero-Lelouch... lol.
Oh yeah... I hated the fact that Nina was included on Lelouch's imagination about everybody with the fireworks... guess he still does not know she is out for his blood (and a new set of tables)
Can anyone tell me who Marianne C.C is refraining to?
little soul your dreams are waitin'
crapping up...
hold them closely
never let go, never let go... <3
Well his ex-could-have-been girlfriend suggested it
And I think the cameos of Nina are there on purpose too... she seems very capable and smart, so she could come out of the blue, from the left field, causing a great deal of troubles to Lelouche.

Marianne is Lelouche's mother
