Unexpected and reasonable ending

When I first started watching it, I knew that Lelouch was a ruthless character, and he naturally took it for granted for everything he did, even when he indirectly killed his own sister Euphilia. The most tragic of them is Xiali. From the death of his father, his disappointment, to the final death, it is full of tragic meaning, and it is really not worth it.
But with the deepening of the plot, there is nothing to examine whether the war is just or not. Whether it is the Black Knights, the British Empire, or perhaps the Chinese Alliance, all of these seem to have no clear boundaries, because they know that they are all pursuing peace. In the play, Lu Luxiu told his sister Nanali that what he was after was tomorrow, and what he wanted was for her to live well and safely. I was still wondering why Lu Luxiu wanted to establish an autocratic regime, and why Suzaku, who had always opposed him and even hated him, would help him. I didn't realize until the end, when another ZERO appeared, that this was his way.
When Suzaku's sharp sword pierced his chest, when everything returned to the picture they discussed, I was deeply shocked. Later, I watched this clip over and over again, and I couldn't help crying every time. Maybe I'm too emotional, but if you look at it from the beginning to the end, I believe you will feel a little bit too.
I remember what Lelouch said in Nanali's arms before he died: I... destroy the world... and then recreate the world... very succinctly summed up his life .
Until his death, the world was still shouting for ZERO and proud of his heroic deeds. However, Lelouch, as a generation of demon kings, took on all the sins until his death. Whether he really died in the end with the power of the king of Geass, I don't know, but I know that his death gave the world a wish, so that people can meet tomorrow in peace. His death was worth the money, shouldn't those who died deserved be respected? So he must die, at least in the eyes of the world he died under the sword of ZERO. Can sing and cry!

    Wow, my love for Lelouch back then was overwhelming. When he died, my essay for the week was a thousand-character essay about the ambition and greatness of the young man #中二的我

    When I first started broadcasting, I liked Suzaku because I liked Suzaku. Later, I saw the discussion of various Suzaku blacks, so I didn't have the motivation to chase it. Now I make up for the show, and finally feel the voice of the short comment. It's hard to accept Suzaku may be because everyone's behavior choices can find the root cause, but even from Suzaku's standpoint, I still can't figure out why he came to such a criterion. The setting of Lulu Xiu's secondary 2 in a disguise is really horrible, but the rhythm of a small climax in each episode is good. The favorite part is that Lelouch is squatting in the bathtub and constantly beating the wall. Just, the first season stopped at this end, it was really "unfinished".

  • 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.

    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.
