Lelouch is the prince of Brittany, the only superpower in the world. He lived a very happy life with his sisters, Nanali and Euphemia, until his mother was killed. Lelouch was very angry about his father's failure to protect his mother. The result of questioning his father was that he was deprived of his status as a prince and sent to the hostile country Japan as a hostage with his sister. I met Kuchiki Suzaku, my best friend in Japan, and the three experienced another happy life, but all the tragedies started from here...
The Gregorian calendar 2010, the Holy Britania to Japan War was declared and Japan was destroyed within a month. District 11 became Japan's new name, and the Japanese lost their dignity completely and were discriminated against by the colonists. Lu Luxiu once again lost his peaceful life and lost contact with Suzaku. Longing for revenge, Lelouch vows to destroy Britannia and create a world where Nanali can live happily.
A few years later, 16-year-old Lu Luxiu accidentally met the mysterious girl cc, and obtained the ability to give orders to anyone who saw his eyes and make them obey absolutely. With this ability, Lelouch put on a mask and gradually became the leader of the entire Japanese resistance organization Black Knight as zero, and became the king of black. On the other hand, Kuchiki Suzaku became an honorary Brittanian and became its soldier. Lelouch is a man who "thinks that if there is no result in the end, it is meaningless". However, Suzaku believes that "the results obtained through the wrong process are meaningless". The difference in concept doomed the two to go to different camps. Lu Luxiu is a person who does not compromise on means to achieve his goals. He chooses to change the world through revolution, while Suzaku hopes to transform through internal transformation. These two have become mortal enemies from the very beginning, and many people in this plot will contact Gundam SEED. The relationship between Suzaku and Lu Luxiu is indeed a bit like Kira and Aslan, but this animation is destined not to gradually become a love idol drama like SEED from the beginning. Lu Luxiu is an absolute strategist, and his grasp of the entire battle situation is unmatched, but he is born with low physical fitness and has almost no ability to manipulate the body. Suzaku is an absolute ace pilot who can eat an army with one person's ability, so these two people become an absolute balance, and neither side's ideals can be realized.
If SEED must be brought in, then the Lux-like character must be Euphemia, who is irreplaceable to Suzaku and Lelouch. Lelouch as his first love. Suzaku, on the other hand, considers her an "irreplaceable woman" and the only one who understands herself. Suzaku became Yuffie's knight, the white knight. The same princess status, the same innocence and kindness, Lux does have many similarities with her, but she does not have the happy ending of Lux. Euphemia does have a unique charm, and even Lelouch said that she is the most difficult opponent to deal with. No one can quench Lu Luxiu's hatred, but Yuffie can make Lu Lu give up his hatred and work with her to build an equal Japanese special zone. But fate made a big joke, Lu Luxiu's gease was out of control, and he gave Yuffie an order to slaughter people in District 11, so the bloody slaughter began. Lelouch, who had no choice, shot and killed Euphemia with Zero's mask. The mask concealed Lelouch's tears, but could not hide his own pain. But at this time, he had already embarked on the road of Shura and could not turn back. He took advantage of the people's anger towards Yuffie to start a decisive battle against the cloth country. Euphemia was known as the "Vase Princess" and the "Three Princesses Who Caused Trouble", but at this time she also got her last name "Slaughter Princess".
Dead, dead, the only person who understands her is dead, the person she loves the most is dead, and she will never see her smile again. The only thing Suzaku one has left is the hatred for zero. On one side of the screen, the people denounced the call for "killing the princess", and on the other side, Yuffie asked whether the construction of the special zone was successful when he was dying. On the day Lu Luxiu was preparing for the decisive battle, Suzaku gave Lu Luxiu the last call---he wanted to kill Zero himself. At this time, Suzaku already suspected that Lu Luxiu was Zero, but he kept denying it, he didn't want to believe it. Your best friend is your worst enemy. But nothing could be changed. The white knight and the black king went too far
. In the end of the first season, Suzaku captured Lelouch, the black knight was wiped out, and the rebellion led by zero failed. The people of District 11 were punished and all became slaves. People cursed Suzaku who caught the hero of Area 11, and cursed the knight who killed the princess. In the end, the two ideals, whether internal transformation or armed revolution, completely failed.
About the concept of Suzaku and Lu Luxiu. In fact, there is a debate: results first or absolute morality. Here are two examples of this: Suppose you are driving an out-of-control train that cannot stop at high speed, and there are 5 people in front of them who are repairing the tracks, and they don't know that the train is out of control. Just when you are at a loss, you suddenly find that there is a fork in the track ahead, and only one person is repairing the track on that fork. Where would you choose to drive? If you choose to take a fork in the road and bump into a person, look at the next example.
Suppose you are a doctor facing 5 dying patients, each of whom lacks a different internal organ replacement, but the hospital has no internal organs that can be replaced for them. But then you suddenly find that someone at the door is asleep, and he is a healthy person with healthy internal organs, so will you attack him at this time?
