Code Geass R2 04 – A great power joins the rebellion

Great episode. Made up for the shitty Shirley filled episode of last week. This entire episode I could just feel the tension oozing from Lelouch’s body. If this was anything other than fiction the situations Lelouch got wouldn’t have worked out so well. And yet, I was still on the edge of my seat wondering if everything would end up okay in the end. That is the appeal of Code Geass.

Lelouch continues to show just how much of a manipulative bastard he is by being all kind to Rolo and actually getting him on his side, which I didn’t quite expect to happen now or any time in the future to be honest. Kinda goes back to how I said, “Since the characters stand out, from my perspective it just seems like anyone has the possibility of becoming Zero’s ally.” With Rolo’s power, I really wonder how things will go now?

Kaguya-hime actually got a line of dialogue this episode. ONE LINE! I am overjoyed.

Once again Zero is up to his old tricks of destroying platforms, but if it works why try something new? Also, we get to see some of Zero’s awesome snowboarding skills.

It was touching oddly enough seeing the reunion of Oogi and the others.

Episode 5 looks like more shitty filler, but it might be interesting since Suzaku decides to come back to school. They all think Lelouch has fake memories still so I wonder what could happen? Will Suzaku still be overly emo and angry just at the sight of Lelouch? Hmm… Also, I see Anya in the preview!

This scene was pretty cute. I found myself playing it back at least 2 or 3 times.

This is how I like to see the useless side characters. Watching the TV not saying anything with worried expressions on their faces.
