It's all Geass's fault

Recently I watched two seasons of "Rebel Lelouch". The story is about Lelouch Britannia, the prince of the British Empire, who accidentally got the power of Geass in the colony of District 11 (Japan) and organized the Black Knights A story of rebellion against an empire. The so-called Geass here is equivalent to a kind of deep hypnosis. Looking at the eyes of the other party can launch an absolute order, and the biggest disaster in the story is directly related to Geass.

Euphemia Britannia is the princess of the empire and one of the few members of the royal family who does not exclude the Japanese. She hopes that the people of her country will live in peace with the Japanese. When she served as the deputy governor of the 11th district, she seized the opportunity to announce the recognition of the Japanese special zone, but this would make Lelouch's resistance lose popular support. Lu Luxiu thought of a clever plan to change this situation, but it would hurt the good Yuffie and other innocent people. He couldn't bear to use Geass's method on Yuffie, but his subconscious dark reason very much wanted to do so. Under such a strong inner conflict, he met Yuffie. The latter's frankness and kindness still moved Lu Luxiu, making him ready to surrender to Yuffie, but at the same time he relaxed his vigilance, and jokingly said, "For example, if I say killing the Japanese, you will seriously implement it. "Unexpectedly, Geass suddenly started out of control at this time, and he could no longer control his Geass after that.

His order to Yuffie Geass was to "kill all the Japanese". The occasion was a celebration meeting for the establishment of the Japan Special Zone. The venue was filled with representatives from all walks of life in District 11 (Japan). Just like that, Euphemia, the deputy governor of District 11, who was dominated by Geass, came to power and said in a sweet and innocent tone: "I have a request, can you die? Kill them all, slaughter them!" The audience was in an uproar, some people thought it was just a joke, but Yuffie was serious, she shot a pistol at one of the audience, and continued: "Soldiers please also Hurry up." At this time, another member of the Empire wanted to stop Euphemia, but she was also shot, Euphemia said with sincere apology: "I'm sorry, but I had to kill all the Japanese. "Then, everyone in Britannia, kill ELEVEN and destroy ELEVEN!" At this point, the soldiers were finally able to confirm that this was a real order, and the massacre began.

From these words, we can find that Euphemia has been completely dominated by Geass, and feels that killing is only an abstract task that must be completed by herself, but she has no sense of guilt for it. Since Yuffie is kind-hearted, most of them used the tone of request when completing this task, asking them to commit suicide first, naively thinking that this was the most worry-free way; and then asking the soldiers for help, but did not use the tone of command corresponding to murder; see They all hesitated and did not take any action, and then shot themselves as a demonstration; even the last sentence "Eliminate ELEVEN" was just like the slogan of a sports meeting, because the requirements for completing the task have completely overwhelmed the meaning of the task. .

This massacre made people think that the British Empire betrayed them and deliberately carried out a massacre conspiracy at the establishment of the special zone. Lu Luxiu was originally unwilling to do this, but since things have inevitably happened, he can only deliberately incite the hatred of the British Empire and put the blame on Euphemia. At the same time, facing the transformed demon Yuffie controlled by Geass, Lelouch shot the bullet into her chest in tears.

    The screenwriter on the first floor of Hanoi is too classic. Too professional. The characterizations of Xia Li and Euphy are unforgettable.
