Here is the FULL PATREON EXCLUSIVE reaction to CODE GEASS Episode 24!!

Enjoy!!

The Britannians built their new city in layers above the ruins of old Tokyo, but only in the center. You have seen this several times that the center is a higher and modernized city and the outskirts are normal buildings on ground level - but in ruins. This is why watching CodeGeass with several days between the episodes is difficult - you forget about all the small things or what was said in between the lines and only remember the big picture.

William Armstrong

2:40 its the first one Lelouch had collaborators he had prepared ahead of time with the Geass, Once he said certain trigger words they did as he says, but were unaffected by the Geass until then. He did something similar to Dalton. 14:55 I'm not sure there is anything I can say to make you feel better about Shirley, but it all makes sense to me and the vast majority of watchers, you're the first I've encountered to be this confused by her circumstances. She was told to forget about Lelouch. Here she is aware of the gaps in her memory, and she has convinced herself that Lelouch probably is 0 based on the strangeness of the note and her observations since then, but doesn't know why the gaps exist. To everyone else Shirley's weird behavior is indeed quite weird but since she doesn't know anything for certain, has no evidence, and is hesitant to talk to anyone about it, its not weird enough that anyone would look into it and come anywhere close to the truth of the situation. No one else is affected similarly because no one else was told to forget such a big part of their own life via Lelouch's Geass. 17:40 Yep your suspicions were completely unwarranted the entire time. 33:10 She is a physicist, its a primitive model mech, but as is shown next episode her piloting the mech isn't the important bit

Lelouch gave the commands beforehand, with eye contact, but the commands only activate when he says a certain word or sentence, so you were right on the latter.

Suraj ayinde

I don't know why you are so stuck on the Shirley situation, your mind is so one dimensional, even though Shirley forgot Lelouch, she became friends with him all over and still hangs out with him and talks to him, it's not like she's still avoiding him to this episode. So from other people's perspective it looks like Shirley and Lelouch made up. The Shirley pretending lelouch doesn't exist probably only lasted for a couple days at best, after all they are in the same class, they'll have to interact at some point anyways.

Luke can never be more happy when he's wrong lol When he saw Viletta walk away lol

Siffzigeuner

I know it is not directly explained but I guess it can be concluded from Euphy's case, that if you order someone with the Geass and the order is against their usual behaviour / the nature of that person that the person becomes conflicted and that could cause the Geass to be less powerful and maybe also weaken over time. So when he ordered Shirley to forget him it was against her character, because she is in love with him. Maybe a little bit like in Death Note where Light also concluded things that dont work or are just not possible. Like "jump from the Eiffel Tower in 10 minutes" - although the person is currently in Japan. So even the Geass is not almighty and has its limits.

Hey, the one dimensional is a bit much. It makes sense from a first time watch that this would be way more important, as people who've watched both seasons a few times it all logically falls into place but I too remember getting stuck on details that didn't matter in the end. This show has so many tiny minute details that you only get after your 4th time watching it. Cut Luke some slack cause he's new to the show, is watching two eps at a time and does all that while dodging spoilers and remaining entertaining for us viewers.

no I agree, yes its odd and def not Lelouch highest IQ move. but I can for sure see a teen as Lelouch is, use gears to escape the love problems. And for everyone else, one can be surprised how little other people really notice or questions other people. I dont even think anyone really ask her much, Lelouch is a odd mystic guy, hes doing his own thing most the time and so is Shirley. So even if anyone noticed they still be like "ok Shirley still being a bit wird, but whatever floats her boat, im not gonna qustion it" because in the end of the day, you can sit and watch a show and go "how stupid! i would have notice or done this" but when in real life people mess up on basic things all the time because there lots of other stuff going on in life. but yeah, all that said, I am agreeing that Shirley is a bit... "useless" to the main plot of Code Geass

"I was right!" You were not 😂 but the events don't change. -

Yeah let's chill and let him shoot the shit :D We'll what he thinks about the show closer to the end

Ceeneon

I will say the whole Shirley-not-mentioning-Lelouch-is-Zero/had-her-memories-wiped thing requires you to heavily suspend your disbelief. The school segments, in hindsight, try and help with that by showing how ridiculous these students/kids daily lives are, but it doesn't make it much more believable that nobody would call Shirley and Lelouch out on their "play fighting", or that Shirley would just let it go on for so long when her lack of memories surrounding Lelouch clashes with everyone saying how close they are.

Daniel

The thing with Shirley doesn't seem that far-fetched, she forgot any memory related to Lelouch, she meets him again at school, then comes back to her dorm and finds a note that hints at Lelouch being Zero, the note probably says something about Lelouch being her father's killer (the landslide). I don't think that she takes this as if it's her bible, but she could link it easily to her, and even if she doesn't really believes that it was her who wrote that, the situation it's so strange that she can't help but ponder it. Then for months she is subjected to what is basically gaslighting, everytime someone inquires about Lelouch or goes deeper to question her about that, maybe sometimes she inquires back and is told some story that for her never happened. Her life doesn't revolve around Lelouch so these topics come up here and there everyday, but what will everyone else think? for me it would be so weird for someone to think that she is suffering of amnesia and investigate to get to the bottom of that, and what would she do? she'd try to live normally, she doesn't have those memories after all, but at the same time the little doubts will grow. With time, the constant clash of what she remenbers and what everyone else seems to could produce some mental inestability, I don't know how she isn't really that crazy right now, but at least in this episode it's hinted that she is a little down that path.

Juandormo

Luke, there are a few things that are hard to follow during season 1, as a result of the shows pace that goes fast with the main plot, but gives little details here and there that are relevant later on. 1. With the britanian woman, Villetta or Chigusa, she was investigating Lelouch previously as a result of her not remembering how she lost her knighmare during the first battle of the show in Shinjuku, because of Lelouch ordering her to give up the knightmare. Nonetheless she did remembered, although vaguely, seeing someone in a student uniform prior losing the robot. So, she and Orange (Jeremiah) started investigating Lelouch by following her memory of that student, with the intention of finding zero. The reason for that is the fact that both Villetta and Orange shared an episode of memory loss, in which they did something out of character, for Orange being him freeing Suzaku and helping Zero escape and for Villetta it is her losing the knightmare after encountering a student in a freaking warzone. It is because of that hypothesis that she contacted Shirley (orange hair girl) to investigate Lelouch, after meeting her in Narita and recognizing the uniform as the same of her suspect (Lelouch). Leading to her looking at zero, or more precisely, Lelouch face, during the harbor battle, and getting shoot by Shirley who wanted to protect Lelouch. Then the story is as you guessed she lost her memory, possible because of the trauma, and recovered it during the stressful encounter with the revolutionary japanese people that attacked her. So after recovering her memory she went to the school she knew Zero attended, just to be captured, then be reunited with Oughi and finally shooting him. 2. With Orange, last time we have seen him participating in the main plot was in Narita, where he was defeated by Kallen and getting grave injuries by the radiation weapon of the Guren (red knightmare). There he was found by the research team that was studying C.C., by the orders of the General Bartley, the fat one that worked with Clovis and now with Schneizel (he was send back to the Capital or Homeland by Jeremiah -Orange- after the death of Clovis by the hands of Lelouch). So he was experimented on by that team during most of the first season, that leading to the past episodes in which they have shown the return of General Bartley under the orders of Schneizel to review the experiments, and now awakening as a mad man obsessed with Zero.

no real need to invoke Geass resistance in Shirley's case. She would just become self-aware of the blank spaces over time because such a significant part of her life was erased and other people are expecting her to know things that she doesn't. Other people wouldn't think to much about it, but for Shirley it would slowly over time give her more reason to believe the note she found and guess that something must have happened to her

rostikowb

Luke, if you watched Tom and Jerry, you'd know that one blow to the head takes away your memory, a second blow brings it back 😂

Subaquatic Toaster

You're oddly stuck on the Shirley thing. I mean she found a handwritten letter in her own handwriting saying that someone everyone assumes she is but weirdly has no memory of killed her dad. Oh and she found a picture of them together that she has no memory of taking. Obviously something is wrong so she's asking the person responsible. I don't know how much more you want to be there tbh.

Frentzy

What I noticed in this show is that, you get confused because it doesn't follow the usual anime trope. And that is to give you all the info. - For example the futuristic town construction that they never gave away the schematics until this and last episode (anti earthquake town construction). - Or how he off-screen met with those people working at those station, then used geass and controlled them, and the trigger was when they hear: "give up at midnight", geass activate and they destroy the city. These type of things you just need 10 seconds to deduce how is that possible, but you don't cuz you expect the show to give it to you. The show will never respond certain things such as these, you're on your own.

100% agree with you. Also I have personally ended friendship with what I would have considered to be my best friend back in school and it was just one day that I have had enough and opened my eyes. We were not on the same class but there was never any real questioning about why we fell out. We just stopped hanging out. They are teens and teens can have major swings in their mood and opinions. especially if you have gone through something traumatic like father got killed and you don't necessarily think everything straight because you still have some grieving you do.

Chrono 1002

There will be nothing left after this? This is definitely a big fight, but not all big characters are here. The emperor, V. V., Orange-kun. None of them are part of the fight. Also, Lelouch's goal is not to conquer Japan, it's to fight with the emperor and destroy Britannia. It has barely even started. Btw, that part with Villetta when you were like "I was right!" and then not even 10 minutes later "Ehhh?!" was hilarious. Yes, she lost her memories, but got them back. Certain situations can trigger memories to resurface. She is a soldier so getting attacked was probably enough for it to happen. In the first place, her personality changed way too much for it to be an act. She was always arrogant and openly hated the elevens. She is not the type to be capable of being a spy. On top of that, I don't think she had any reason to suspect Ohgi of being part of the Black Knights when she just woke up on the bed, that's why she didn't have any reason to lie or want to stay with him either. I agree that Shirley's part is the weirdest. Or more like, the way everyone in the school is treating like it's normal is weird. The letter can go both ways. I can understand if some people can accept that. I'm sure that even Shirley felt that something was not completely alright. She loved Lelouch and probably spent quite a lot of time with him and if the command goes strongly against the person's wishes and personality then they can resist it for a short time. Maybe this happened in Shirley's case too. She probably has a lot of blank parts in her memories too where Lelouch was the main part. As for controlling the robot. It doesn't feel that much of a surprise. In a lot of mech anime where mechs are generally accepted and used in the world, students learn how to control them in school. They are probably widely used in many fields not just in the army, like transportation related jobs, heavy lifting, mining, etc. Moreover, they had such a robot in school grounds so it was probably used during all kind of school events. Someone in the science field will probably know how it works in theory (at least). Even if they are not going to be the best pilots, they can probably operate it.

"Surely there's more about Shirley" I see what you accidentally did there. lol

Golladan

7:00 She didn't use him as a human shield. He willingly jumped in to protect her.

LMPGames

Vis-a-vis Shirley, you've missed things Luke; it's fully explained throughout season 1. Code Geass is a very information dense anime. You really should be re-watching each episode if you're going to continue reacting to the sub. She lost her memory around everything to do with Lelouche. She is starting to become friends him again, but she also knows that somehow he is also Zero because of the diary page and that they used to have a relationship from the other students talking about it with and around her. This causes her to be extremely conflicted.

Golladan
>>131147546

Right. Lelouch isn't a perfect being. He still has some flaws. He's very smart, but even smart people make mistakes, or overlook things. Add to that that what he did was a spur of the moment thing. He didn't actually have time to think things through.

Krowft

@10:00 Jeremiah (Orange) and General Dalton are 2 different people if I'm not mistaken.

FaerieRose

There are anime where the people who seem nice, actually are nice. You’ve just been scarred by watching some very cynical anime without enough injections of sunshine and cute girls doing cute things in between.

Vinnick

In regard to Nina (crazy table-abusing girl) being able to pilot a knightmare frame; that knightmare is the one they used at the school festival for making the giant pizza, and I believe it was stated in that episode it had been used for at least one school festival in the past. Since it's used for student council shenanigans, it's likely that Nina had at least helped on the maintenance with it before, since she's on the council, and conceivable that she had piloted it, at least in a limited fashion, in the past. Never in a battle of course, but her being familiar with how to at least make it move isn't too unbelievable.

Devilish132 .

Code Geass isn't one of the greatest story in itself (by how it goes), its one of the greatest story 'couse how it ends. The ending makes everything that happened before great. So just wait for it and after last episode go back with memories to beginning and remember how it all was going until those final moments. The ending is simply a cherry on top that makes it all complete. And additionally season 1 even if really good is nothing compared to season 2. Oh and good advice. Brace Yourself for next episode ending, it will be fire.

ArtKi

4:03 Ref the cities collapse. The builders appear to have used ACTIVE earthquake resistance. Ground shakes one way - the gizmos make a counter-move. No damage But, if you make the gizmos collapse, everything they're protecting collapses. 8:36 Luke, you can't say "I knew it!" if you give two options! 30:01 You forgot that Darlton, after he was injured, got geased. He's been SLOWLY making his way towards Cornelia ever since. We didn't see what the geas was - but we did see his glowy red eyes so there was no doubt that there was a geas.

I think we suggest only these type of shows as well, For example your avatar, bookworm has those type of characters as well , they nice then they end up being not nice. I can't think of one show that I believe is good and doesn't contain at least 1 shady character.

Khanh Minh

Code Geass is a very information heavy show that requires you to 1) see super quick clues and hints planted several eps before and 2) connect the dots and make conclusion in what they might mean. Like you said, it's a puzzle and you can't complete a puzzle if you don't even know or remember what the pieces look like. Again I really recommend that you do rewatch of the episodes on ur own, maybe in dub even if it's easier for you to catch the hints, and really digest the info. This is not the anime where you can just go in and chill and expect them to feed you the info, because this series simply doesn't do that

Daniel Golas

If im right, next episode gonna have BS cliffhanger

Angelo Marchantt

Homie screaming "I was right" is so funny cause of how wrong he is about everything. Honestlt code geass is not a hard anime to follow but it always reminds me why anime needs to be so "easy for children to understand" cause the amount of people that cant follow whats happening when a series expect them to think even a little bit is way to high

LunaEmperor

the reason at the beginning the geass activated for those people at the controls for the city floors was because he instructed them to when he says the word surrender to do these and that. its like the girl that at lunch break has to carve the markings at the wall

Khanh Minh
>>131259143

I know right. I feel like CG need to be rated at level intermediate or experienced anime viewers or something lol

Colm Barry

Okay, glad we're clear on Villetta because WOW that was frustrating. She confirmed Zero's identity before she lost her memory, why would she be faking it?

Khanh Minh
>>131330660

Well he thought Lelouch already knew Suzaku was in the Lancelot the whole time from ep1 to ep17 lol, it was so frustrating. So the reveal moment was kinda meh to

Jon

everyones eyes were on finding ohgis shooter and slightly on suzaku the students were told not to be harmed so theres little observation for them. yes cornelia did that to lure zero to her and it worked because if she kills zero the army falls apart risky but smart.

Jon

also just to point out the machines arnt crazy to control its fighting with them thats more difficult but she has a gun and a trtump card and thats all she needs and as said shes smart. in regards to this show EVERYTHING pays off eventually so if your confused nor dont worry just wait eventually it should make sense to you by the end of the series.

Angelo Marchantt
>>131259143

How so? Personally I dont agree with the "intermediate anime viewers", my main point is that personally I usually complain at animes always being so "dumbed down" and when I see people not being able to follow sometjing as simple as Geass I get reminded why anime gotta be that way sometimes. It's just an observation

Joshua McWatters

8:10 No u weren't she genuinely lost her memory.

Kieran O’Neil
>>131259143

lmfao we got 'Mr Genius' over here. I bet you are wrong about half the simple things shown cause your brain can't really comprehend what is truly happening in these "dumbed down" anime you've watched. What a moron.

ShiberNyan

Ok first of all, Cornelia didn't push the guy in the way, he pushed her aside and took the blow for her instead. Though to be fair it does kind of look like she threw him at the enemy if you don't look closely enough. But doing such a thing would also be very uncharacteristic of her, since she would view that as a cowardly thing to do with the way she always insists on fighting (and dying) alongside her soldiers. Second of all, Villetta actually did have amnesia from the traumatic event of having been shot by Shirley (yes traumatic events can cause amnesia, so it's not far fetched). Being attacked triggered her memories to come back (there's no real treatment for amnesia, it usually resolves on its own and happens differently for every person, so this way of recovering from her amnesia isn't particularly unrealistic either). I think you got too hung up on the two possibilities you came up with, forgetting that there were many other possibilities. Third of all, when you made that comment about 'anime writing', I think you misread the subtitles. Cause what you explained is not at all what the character said. All he said is that they still don't know if Darlton is alive or dead, which several other characters mentioned before. Nothing weird there. Finally, the Shirley situation really isn't that weird. The cause IS explained (she found her letter, people tell her she apparently knows Lelouch and even had a nickname for him etc). How a person will react to all that will be different for each person, some will instantly believe the letter/what they're being told, others will instantly completely deny it, others will be unsure what to think of it which can range anywhere from being very unsure to only a little bit unsure/from leaning more towards believing it to leaning more towards denial etc. Also it probably hasn't been that long since she started 'pretending' not to know Lelouch. Also you keep saying she must have discussed her supposed crush and fight with Lelouch with some imaginary best friend at school or something, but the show made it pretty clear that Shirley's crush on Lelouch was a secret she didn't really talk much about until recently with only some of the student council members and maybe her roommate. Her crush was of course obvious to many people, but that doesn't mean they will bring that up to her all the time...there's plenty of other things to talk about. Also Lelouch hasn't been at school much these days, so there probably aren't many (if any) off-screen encounters between the two and their mutual friends, causing the topic to come up. So her arc really isn't as weird as you say imo.
