User blog comment:C.C100/Code Geass Questions!!!!/@comment-98.28.163.219-20091202192049

I know I'm late on this topic but I can clear some things up... which really just makes it even more confusing. First question, no there will be no season 3, the creators said so. Second question is a long one... Lelouch did not recieve Charles' code, since the affects take place immediately and there was no signs of it, unfortunately he didnt use his geass either after that, so we can't be sure. And Nunally saw his memories when she touched his arm when he was dying, which is a sign of having a code, so it could go either way. The creators never proclaimed lelouch dead or alive either, they always answered vaguely at questions or just flatly refused to some. They said they wanted each person to have their opinion. One thing showing he may be alive is the story of folding 1000 paper cranes then you get a wish, and the final second of the entire series is a paper crane made by C.C., who wanted Lelouch to live, so it may be her wish was granted perhaps. Some say that when C.C. looks up and says "isn't that right, Lelouch?" at the end she's looking at the driver of the cart, but since she can communicate with people in the other world for all we know she could be talking to him in there.

The whole thing is very controversial, with arguments for him being alive or dead. And as much as I'd love for him to be alive, you have to admit if Lelouch lived his sacrifice for a better world just seems stupid, and kind of ruins the ending. I believe he's dead mostly because of that. He's a tragic hero, and he died a tragic death is how I see it.
