Code Geass ep. 18

Okay, so this episode started out with Zero handing out the assignments. Of course, Karen is the head of his honor guard, but I loved her reaction. She was like, “sweet!” C.C. looked pretty bored, though, twisting her hair like that. :D

Next, Suzaku was knighted and I thought that his outfit was cool, but a little piratey. And the clapping thing was giving me Harry Potter flashbacks. I couldn’t help but think of that scene at the end of the second movie where everyone stands around clapping for Hagrid, and you’re sitting there watching it, thinking, “WTF?”

I really don’t like Diethard. He’s a creep and his hair freaks me out. I also didn’t like his suggestion to assassinate Suzaku, although Toudou stamped on that one fast. Go Toudou! I also liked it when Zero told Diethard to keep out of his business, too, but Diethard’s little “I love you Zero! Let me record your every move” speech only added to his general creepiness. Watch out, Zero, Shirley’s not the only one who stares at your picture at night……….

After all of that, things got really good. I’m hoping that Euphie is going to kick some Vicereine ass! That would be awesome! It’s probably not going to happen though…..

I’m ready to know if Suzaku is going to discover that Karen’s a part of the resistance, and more importantly, if he is going to find out Zero’s true identity any time soon. And C.C. told Lelouch to use the Geass on him but……didn’t Lelouch already use the Geass on Suzaku to save Nanally? That would mean that he can’t influence him again, right?

I always think it’s funny when Lelouch gets into a dangerous situation. He’s usually so aloof and condescending, but when there’s a gun pointing at him, he loses that calm facade pretty quick, doesn’t he?
