Spoilerfest ahead. You’ve been warned. :D

Well. Um. The first half of episode 25 was seriously bad-ass and all sorts of hardcore. Kallen vs Suzaku; Lelouch vs Nunally, Orange-kun being Orange-kun. Just watch it.

And I fell in love with Lelouch all over again. *snuggles the crazy* There’s just something great about every time he goes off into over-dramatic land and goes “Lelouch Via Britannia Commands You!”

The second half…eh. If you watched it you know what I’m talking about. I mean, I kinda figured that it would end that way. Suzaku killing Lelouch wasn’t a big surprise and I KNEW Kallen didn’t kill him. Heck, the moment Zero showed up during Lelouch’s little parade I was like “Suzaku.” Kinda’ obvious.

Though, I did appreciate Suzaku crying. *nods* And the music for these last few episodes has been particularly nice. I really like the soft vocals; it really added something else to Lelouch’s death.

I’m still mad they didn’t fake Lelouch’s death. Or that Lelouch didn’t take a code from someone and become ‘LL’ or as some other blogs have pointed out: “R2” – get it? “C2” “V2” – R2? (Yes, I know you spell it “CC” and “VV” but they say “C2” and “V2”). Which would have been awesome. Lelouch x C.C. the whole way. (Or xKallen, or xSuzaku, or whatever person I’m throwing Lelouch at in any given moment.)

And what’s with the giant time skips? First a “one month later” and Lelouch is emperor and now a “Two Montsh Later”. They never did tell us what happend in that one month of just Lelouch, C.C. and Suzaku. Which is sadness.

And now I’ve just started rambling. So we’ll end this the right way:

Jeremiah Gottwald, you are the most amazing and hardcore character – ever. I salute you!

(Seriously folks, the guy jumped out of his freaking mech in mid-air, did a flip and took out a Knight of the Rounds. HARDCORE. *glomps Orange-kun*)
