Overall, this work is still very good. I always feel that the most important thing in a work is the portrayal of people. CG has done it. It has a good grasp of the emotional relationship between human nature and characters. Guilty crown is dwarfed by it . Although the second part is developing too fast, it is actually a foreshadowing. What I can't bear is the joking Yuffie plot, although it is indeed a turning point. Charlie is the worst. In the end, it's pretty good too. Disadvantages I personally think that the mecha combat is relatively simple, and the political description is naive. But an animation can't ask for too much, right? I've been busy lately, so I'll go to Bushen Fan, Interstellar Cowboy, Chaos Warrior later.

Lloyd: Are you surprised?
Milly: [blinks] Uhhh...
Lloyd: Matchmaking dates are usually in hotels or restaurants.
Milly: Uh, I suppose that's true, but I'd heard you were a very unique person, Lord Asplund.
Lloyd: [works at computer] Unique! What a delightfully awful way to put it.
Milly: I'm surprised you're interested in a girl from the downgraded Ashford family after it lost its rank.
Lloyd: [turns to Milly] Oho! But I couldn't care less about loss of rank.
Cecile: Excuse me.
[sets down a tray of tea for Lloyd and Milly]
Milly: I'm sorry to trouble you.
Cecile: Not at all. Take your time.
Lloyd: No need for that.
[resumes working]
Lloyd: Why draw it out? Let's get married.
Milly: Huh?
[exclaims]
Milly: That's it?
Lloyd: Getting cold feet?

Charles: The former 17th heir to the Imperial Throne, Lelouch vi Britannia. It's been a long time, hasn't it, my errant son?
Lelouch: [struggles to lift his head] How dare you...!
Suzaku: [forces Lelouch's head down] You won't use your Geass.
[to Charles]
Suzaku: Your Majesty, I have a request. Please, sire, allow me to join the Knights of the Round, the twelve strongest knights of the Britannian Empire.
Charles: As a reward for capturing Zero, is that it?
Lelouch: You...
Suzaku: I told you before, Lelouch, that I was going to change this world from the inside.
Lelouch: Even if it means selling out your friends?
Suzaku: That's right.
Charles: Very well. I like the answer you just gave him. Now then, as a Knight of the Round I order you: cover up Zero's left eye.
Suzaku: Yes, Your Majesty.
[covers Lelouch's left eye and lifts his head up by the hair]
Charles: My unworthy son, who raised the banner of rebellion although he was a prince. Still, there's another way we can make use of him.
Lelouch: [gasps] What?
Charles: [Geass appears in both his eyes] I will rewrite your memory, about being Zero, about the death of your mother, about the very existence of Nunnally.
Lelouch: No... Geass...
Charles: You'll remember none of it. You'll just be insignificant.
Lelouch: [struggling against Suzaku] No, stop! You're stealing what's most precious to me again! First my mother, and now you're taking Nunnally!
Charles: Charles zi Britannia engraves into you...
Lelouch: Stop it!
Charles: False memories of a false life.
Lelouch: [screams in anguish]
