Can't say I'm familiar with the Leno/Conan thing.
LadyWarrior might be, she likes Leno.

However, what you said is so true.
There is no way to explain Lelouch's actions in the Zero Requiem as anything but either a total scam (meaning he really didn't kill all those people) or total insanity.
Also, if Mr. I don't want anyone else to get hurt Suzaku was true to his belief in making Lelouch become a hero, WTF happened?
How is killing more innocent people going to wash away the death of Euphie or the evil that Lelouch accidentally committed?
What were Taniguichi and Okouchi thinking?
They should have had Lelouch go down as a real hero and save the world from either Schneizel or Charles.
I know I sound like a broken record about this, but it really was A MISSED MOMENT OF AWESOME.

Even in my story, I still had Tohdou acting like he did in the series, albeit a bit older and wiser.

In your story, Tohdoh seemed a little more jaded and stubborn, to the point that he put Japan first.

[Prime Administrator]

Yes, that is how I tried to make him.
He seemed GungHo for Japan throughout the series, and I tried to maintain that attitude throughout my story.
He will make an appearance in Alpha and Omega.
Though I won't spoil when.

[azul120]

I see.

Chiba, from that one moment, seemed rueful over what happened, though it wasn't clear she was regretting it.

BTW, what do you think of Guilford? He gets a lot of sympathy, even though he was one of Cornelia's right hand men, and had a part in a couple of Britannia's more repressive acts. (He suggested killing the protestors at the second SAZ IIRC.) And he's seen as the victim when Lelouch has him geassed, even though it was more of a failsafe. (It did suck that he thought he was tricked into believing he was obeying Cornelia, and then got engulfed in the FLEIJA blast.)

[Prime Administrator]

I think Guilford was simply a patriotic man doing what he thought was right.
Everything he knew he learned from his Britannian upbringing.
Because of that I give him a pass.
Killing isn't always evil IMO, murder is, but killing is not.
Guilford never struck me as a murderer, unlike Bradley who clearly enjoyed killing "numbers" for the sheer pleasure it gave him.

[azul120]

I agree that he was a patriot. Just not necessarily a samaritan, as some people seem to paint him, and that Lelouch geassing him was a Kick the Dog moment, even though it was out of necessity.

[Prime Administrator]

Yeah but in all honesty, Guilford was a dog that derserved to be kicked the way Lelouch did it.
GP Guilford was too loyal to Cornelia, although I guess it can be argued that he was in love with her...which is nice for Cornelia especially after Euphie's demise.

Though of course, Cornelia didn't deserve it really after what she'd done and never atoned for.

That some people will argue that Guilford was her reward for what she'd been through, while Lelouch got what he deserved in the end is nothing short of cognitive dissonance. But you could probably guess I was going to say that anyways, lol.

She was sexy, and you know that in anime the sexy chick always gets a pass...especially if she looks like this.

Even thought her ego made it to where CLAMP should have drew her like this
