Code Geass (major spoilers for Code Geass and Death Note)

Re: Code Geass (major spoilers for Code Geass and Death Note

I still don't like kallen she's a bitch.


Nina is a better character then

Roll
Lelouch
Kallan

Oh yes I went there.

That's how much I hate these 3

I don't care anyways they all got screwed in the end which was satisfying
 
Re: Code Geass (major spoilers for Code Geass and Death Note

Nina was a character I struggled to like. She had a lesbian crush on a princess, one which would never amount to anything and then flips out and threatens to kill all her friends after said princesses death just to kill the person who commited the murder. In the second season she then abandons her friends to research a weapon of mass destruction and when approached by said friends she pushes them away several times and really turns her back on them, all over her sadness due to Euphys death.

She's rather a pathetic character in my opinion, and her hatred for Elevens is just as bad, if not worse as Kallens for Britannians. If you criticise one character for their "racism" (as you call it) then you should criticise the other. Oh but you'll come out with the Nina had a bad experience sometime earlier in her life, it completely justifies her hatred" but then so did Kallen, her brother was killed by Britannians, she watched as the Elevens were used and abused by Britannians, she grew to resent what Britannians stood for after witnessing the demise of her mother.....


The vast majority of characters in Code Geass are flawed in their own ways, but then there is always a sort of understandable nature about their flaws and the decisions they make, I think it's why I enjoyed the show so much, there is so much grey area and not a lot of black or white.

Nina doesn't hate 11s she fears them BECAUSE of what happened in a 11 area it traumatised her.

She saw kallan as a friend but found out she was one of zero cronies and yes kallan is a traitor.

Nina didnt want to be the girl they all thought was helpless and couldn't do anything her self.

Kallan abandoned everyone at her school and the one of the knights was going to kill the kids at the school because they are Britannias.

By the way her mother isn't dead you can see her at the end of the series........>_> and you thought I wasn't paying attention to the series.

Some Britannias was good people like the ones at her school and they didn't care if they was Britannias or 11s

Sure there was some pricky one's but look at what kallen did ..........
 
Re: Code Geass (major spoilers for Code Geass and Death Note

AF telling me I don't pay attention :lol: I used teh term demise figuratively to portray the downward spiral her life went through for the sake of spending time with Kallen.

You seem to be willing to overlook flaws in characters that you like and then when the same flaws are evident in another character who you don't like you then use it as damning evidence as to why said character is a "prick" or a "bitch"

Nina abandoned everyone at the school. Kallen abandoned everyone at the school
Nina Killed people (indirectly). Kallen killed people.
Nina had bad experiences. Kallen had bad experiences in her past.

I actually think you take these characters to heart far too much and seem to be emotionally invested in them and whether or not people should hate them or like them and it often clouds your ability to look past the face value level of things and look deeper.
 
Re: Code Geass (major spoilers for Code Geass and Death Note

^ yep that sums me up.....your right.

But come on its my opinion and I say I don't like kallen lelouch and rolo it's just that simple and I have my reasons for not liking them ......like how you like them that's your opinion.

How did this start anyways?
 
Re: Code Geass (major spoilers for Code Geass and Death Note

I honestly just do not get it what so ever why people even like these characters for the life of me .

And that's all to it I just don't get it at all.
 
Re: Code Geass (major spoilers for Code Geass and Death Note

I think as you get older you start understanding more of the myriad perspectives people have. If you have a bee in your bonnet about some particular flaw (for me, it's really dumb or weak-willed characters), then you lose the ability to be objective when you think about them. In a way, you're blinded by hate when you look at someone like Kallen in exactly the same way that she's blinded by her emotions when she thinks of the opposing sides of the conflict, AF.

(I have to say that personally, I'm not keen on Nina either, sorry.)

To try to turn this thread in a happier direction, which character is everyone's favourite in the series? I utterly adore Lloyd because he's nuts, shady and intelligent, and he has an amazing voice :D

Re: Code Geass (major spoilers for Code Geass and Death Note

For me it has to be Cornelia. Her intro episode where she basically comes in kicking ass in her mech is brilliant - and I like that out of all the characters, she's probably one of the ones that best sums up the series in terms of what it tries to do with its 'villains'. Eg. she's the bad guy that you ultimately end up loving and rooting for.

Plus, purple hair! What more do you want?

On a separate note - I ended up having a real soft spot for CC too, which always surprised me because I hated her at the start. She seemed so vacuous and manipulative, but as the series went on, you could see that underneath all of that, there was actually a sensitive, damaged young girl that just really, really loves pizza.

The queen has spoken

Ok you bring up a good point on both........but you have to admit she's is a bitch...... I mean she asked what she ment to lelouch and he turned her down twice and left him for dead in episode 19 S2 And when she heard him you must live,, she changed her mind, then she kissed him and wanted to know how he felt about her.

Basically she's saying

Kallen: slouch do you love me.

Lelouch: sorry but I..........

Kallen: KILL THAT BASTARD!!!!!!!!
 
Re: Code Geass (major spoilers for Code Geass and Death Note

Nina was very hard to like I'll agree. broadly speaking she's a rich girl brought to the colonies who's deathly afraid of the natives that have been subjugated by her people. It's very hard to like someone like that, maybe she's right to be afraid, afterall subjugated peoples tend to rise up sooner or later.

Cornelia's a good strong character, gets things done, but still cares for her men and her sister. Lloyd and Cecile have some great interaction. Jeremiah seemed like an ass at the start and I was somewhat bemused to see him pop-up again, but once he got going and we learnt a bit more about him he was pretty awesome.
 
Re: Code Geass (major spoilers for Code Geass and Death Note

I enjoyed the time Diethard had on screen. Ohgi seemed like a genuinely good guy and I was always rooting for him. Lelouch was just mesmerising to watch at all times.

Bet you hated him what he did to lelouch hmmmm.

Here's something I wrote on MAL

me
He let everyone believe she was a killer....

Would you let someone frame a sister of yours and knowing she was innocent and let everyone continue to believe she was a murderer.

I know I wouldn't

Light on the other hand

http://youtu.be/I7NWtNwzgdg

someone who responded to me
How do you think he can clear her name, seriously. Would anyone believe that she was under some sort of magical mind control

And it was necessary to kill Euphy, or else many more will die. And please, Light would be ready to kill his family with no remorse if situation demands so, unlike Lelouch who actually felt guilt.

me
First he would get a bunch of people together who didn't believe he had the power and made half of them kill each other and the other half lived to tell what they saw.

Also if the knights can believe it FROM a royal princess who is there enemy, I'm sure the people would be convinced by the knights..........And the evidence that is piled against lelouch. Yeah I'm sure people would believe it or not believe it because they don't want to believe it get it.

It would of ruined the knights and they decided to keep it a secret to not have the people turn against them..........that's how desperate they was when they said zero is dead...........talk about a bunch of liars.

Also zero could of said * th he japanese is all dead....that would of stopped the gaess .....It's like suzakus gaess * when he's in danger of dying he's gaess activates and it does what ever it can to keep him alive........And the command that furlough gave euphy was....kill all the Japanese..........I'm 120% sure if he just said.....all the japanese is dead the gaess would of stopped*

Yeah lelouch felt so much guilt that he just mopped about it for a bit and brushed it off and went......Ok back to work.

Also light kills for the greater good

Please tell me you wouldn't want

Pedos
Dictators
Rapists
Mass murderers
Terrorists
Ect

To die and let everyone feel save in the world........

Wars was stopped
Crime went down 70%
And everyone knows if you do bad things kira would kill you....so no one would do anything bad again.

With lelouch.....he'd start a massive war for

Revenge and that's it and he doesn't care how many people has to die.......millions of innocent people have died because of him and he done so many horrible things

Betrayed his friends
Made his sister be hated by the people and she was the most innocent character in the series
He killed Shirleys dad
He used his allies, enemies, family, passers by, random people

And did so many horrible other things and for what?

Revenge on his father

A place where nunnally can be happy ( yeah to make her happy for the cost of millions of lives) yeah I'm sure she'd be happy to know lives have been taken by her brother to make her happy.

And to know what happened to his mother

And that's it .....he didn't care about the knights course, he didn't care about the 11s,

It was all for his selfish desire for just these 3 reasons and that's it.
 
Re: Code Geass (major spoilers for Code Geass and Death Note

I don't love or hate characters AF. I appreciate what drives most of the characters in the show and their motivations, hence why I can understand why they do what they do.

So....

part of your solution to proving Lelouch has magic powers and thereby proving Euphemia's innocence would be to get a bunch of people to kill each other?

How can you complain about Lelouch or any of these other characters doing what they did if that is your solution to the problem?

He doesn't mind killing a few more people I'm sure.

I mean he killed his brother and sister tried to kill his BBF, and so on and so on I mean he'll just shrug it off like it was nothing

You are so against all the murder he has done but your solution to proving Euphemia as innocent is for him to kill more people? (That's kinda scary line of thought tbh AF)

His Geass can do many things, how about he just makes a bunch of people do things they'd never normally do, he can surely prove things without needing to kill more people?

As a Brit, I always wondered if he was supposed to be an evil parody of our actual Prince Charles.
