You know what Sophie?
*SLAP*
Now that's a slap in the face.
Anyway, I'm still loving Lelouch, I thought he was rather clever in episode 9 and if you have to choose between him and Nina, it's fairly obvious who wins.
The Chinese aren't really on either side, they switch when convenient.

What was that for?! Seriously, why did you do that? I like the Knights of the Round, especially the girl (please tell me she at least is a girl!) who says 'Recorded' in response to everything, and then records it on that little ... PDA thing she has. I also LOLed at the bit where Lloyd started to eat that sandwich in the hospital room, then staggered out into the corridor with it still in his mouth, when he realised what was in it ;D. And I find myself very amused by the fact that Viletta was dragged into modelling with the swim team, and then subsequently ran around the school grounds in very little else. There's quite a bit of fanservice for her, isn't there?

Freaking merciless ... >_>; Meheheheheheheee ....

Yeah, Anya is great.
Watching this episode, I'm wondering if a bag over the head is the most clever disguse ever or if Suzaku is blind. I suspect the latter. Also Anya is suddenly more mysterious.
Also, they need to stop reviving Jeramiah. The fans may love him but that's not actually a good reason.

I've finally caught up and I replied to your latest CG blog entry, Kat, but realised that you might not notice, seeing as it's a few entries down, so I'll just paste that message here as well. "Odysseus has the poofiest hair and beard. Nina made me totally ROFL at her insanity, though poor Milly so did not deserve the lambasting. And I'm impressed that they finally bothered with some Milly fanservice. That blue colour suits her."

Well, Kat, I promised you I would make this, and here it finally is: I know, I know; I'm amazing. Although, I'm not sure if Coco has now become slightly defiled, by being included in that ...

Where's Arthur? Don't defile Coco, just Arthur. At least he's only fictional.

SHOCK. HORROR. Anyone seen Act 13? Well ... I really enjoyed the episode. Some more non-mech fight scenes took place (which is always good) and Orange-kun decided to take a leaf out of Edward Elric's book and turn his arm into a blade. Where the shock and horror comes in is in two parts near the end of the episode. SPOILERS (highlight to reveal): Jeremiah joined Lelouch? I'm not sure if I like this or not. Part of me was like "ooh, he's so gonna attack Lelouch when he turns off the disturber machine things" but instead he didn't. So, I'm not quite sure if this is a good or a bad thing yet.
Also, let's not forget the fact that f**king Rolo shot Shirley. As soon as I saw Rolo appear, I knew she'd either die or get injured very badly. When Lelouch finds out it was him (if he does) I would not want to be Rolo.
This also leads me to another thing that was on my mind about the Geass. I always had two questions: Is there a limit to what commands can be given and would the Geass work again on someone who had it cancelled already? The reason Shirley didn't survive has to be one of those. If it's the first, the Geass must not be able to stop things that ... well, just can't be stopped. Like, there was no way she was going to survive. But what about Suzaku? He has the command instilled in him that never lets him die and he somehow avoided an assasin he didn't even know was there. Surely that's not one of those possible things either?
I reckon it's 'cause of Jeremiah's Geass canceller that she died. Once it's cancelled, a new Geass cannot be instilled again. Well, that's what I think.

Wowings, no Kallen for once, nor C.C., AND, no fan-service, other than a few shots of Viletta's ass, though I'm thinking they don't count anyway. Hee, she spoke to Ohgi! Yay ^_^. Still, I want to know how that conversation continued. Yay for Cornelia returning and Jeremiah (I can't decide whether I like that name more, or 'Orange-kun' xD). Highlight below for spoilerings: Still, freaking V.V. was just creeping me out, especially with his continued hints at being related to the Royal Family ... hows?! Also, all of poor Milly's efforts at getting Shirley and Campboy together appear to have been chucked down the drain, what with Shirley's apparent DYING. Also, what the f**k is going on in Chocolate-and-Caramelboy's mind? Either he really has been working against Lelouch all this time, he just suddenly snapped and went crazy, or it's some cover-up conspiracy and he didn't really kill Shirley and some stupid big reveal will open next episode with a bang and cause us to all facepalm into infinity.

Boy, I hate Rolo. Suddenly I love Orange though, he hinted at the fact that Marriene is alive (which I've believed for quite a while).
Richard, I believe the Geass can work on someone who's been degeassed but in the case of Shirely, it was impossible. Considering the blood loss she already had, it's a little hard to recover from that unless you're a Bleach character. She did seem to have the red ring around her eyes to indicate that it had worked but then this does imply some limit on the orders that can be given. Nothing physically impossible seems to be the limit.
Actually, I have nothing non-spoilery to say.

Yeah, I mean, when Suzaku avoided his assassin, he wasn't in a near-death state. He just suddenly gained a heightened sense or something, and managed to realise they were there before they could attack him.

If we're technical, it seems that it doesn't have a limited time frame and so he was still obeying his order of "Live on." by not allowing himself to be stabbed.

Act 14! Thinking back, a lot of major stuff didn't really happen, but the ending provided a good cliffhanger. Spoilars: Charles somehow transported Lelouch into that place that's a weapon against the Gods or something. Anyway, for a second, when Charles activated his Geass, I was so scared that Lelouch would lose his memory. I mean, that'd suck.
Another thing is that I'm pissed off. Thanks to Rolo being a stupid bitch last episode, Suzaku suspects Lelouch of killing Shirley and I bet soon, Kallen will be filled with doubt. >_<;

This episode made me hate just about everyone at some point. I got over Lelouch hate because he was just acting ^^.
I don't think I could actually hate Suzaku more after this one. He's lost all his morals and basically will stop at nothing to get his revenge, including torturing one of his friends. Rolo I hate because he admitted to killing Shirely and then blatantly lied to Lelouch. He's just jealous of Nunally actually being related to Lelouch but quite frankly, he's just completely blind if he can't see he's being used. Diethard I'm beginning to hate because he's just becoming completely useless. Actually, it's going kinda like Death Note in that sense, as one of his closest followers can no longer predict what he wants done.

Wait, Lelouch was the one you hated least in that episode?! That boy is totally screwed up. He landed the blame for Shirley's death where he WANTED it to be placed, which resulted in some ridiculous massacre of innocent people, which even C.C. was like 'wha? ' about, and then he couldn't even be bothered to attend Shirely's funeral, even though he was allegedly so shook up about what happened to her and blah-blah-blah. - But you were right when you told me that Shirley's mother's crying at the funeral was hilarious. - And I love how much of a slob C.C. was, while Lelouch wasn't around. I'm starting to like her more. - Cornelia was WAY cool. She did barely anything, but I think she has got a haircut since season one, and it totally suits her. - V.V. really annoys me. He's just like some whiny little kid. - Camp boy still has the most ridiculous and over-exaggerated evil laugh. - Nina is so annoying, even if she is a hilarious mess. The whole of last season, I never picked up on her purist vibes, and now I don't get why she is jealous of Shirley. Poor Milly extends all these courtesies to her, and Nina blates doesn't care, and goddamn, Rivalz should just pull her and get it over and done with, though not at the graveside, 'cos I'm thinking the whole funereal atmosphere would kill that mood. - Any by Jove, Viletta and Ohgi need to elope or something before my brain goes all squishy with romantic tension.
