Talk:Code Geass: Lelouch of the Re;surrection/@comment-32252462-20190222183737/@comment-36273071-20190303125910

Humh. Yes, that's what we all believe(d). But according to Re;surrection spoilers, he is acting autonomously, and his eyes appear geassed only when he mentions Zero- almost as if he was going to propose something contradictory to his wishes, but the Geass command stopped him. Other than that, he is a fully rounded human being, with a degree from the university of life, a diploma from the school of god complexes, and a commendation from the academy of nuking the shit out of everyone.

So no, he is not a puppet, and is in fact the ruler of a superpower, only bound by Suzaku's core orders. Ones which he could, being the intelligent nightmare he is, potentially deduce on his own, and then undermine through any loophole in the wording he can find. Much like how the policemen sent after Mao only shot to incapacitate, due to the command's insufficient complexity.
