Hi, I'm a Code Geass fan.

My main wiki is the AliceSoft Wiki.

WARNING: SPOILERS BELOW (if you haven't watched the end of season 2)

Despite official information, I choose to believe that Lelouch inherited C.C.'s code and did not actually die, for the following considerations:


 * From C.C., we have learned that in the Code Geass universe, living forever with the Code is a worse fate than death -- Both C.C.'s predecessor and C.C. herself desired to lose the Code and die like a human being.
 * Lelouch told Suzaku that Suzaku's punishment is to live on. Never as Kururugi Suzaku anymore, but to live in the shadows behind the mask of Zero.  Suzaku can no longer live a normal life, but had to serve to help facilitate peace on Earth.  It is the more responsible punishment/price to pay for what Suzaku had committed.  Death would be the irresponsible cowardly escape from consequences.

Following those two considerations, it makes significantly more plotwise-sense for Lelouch to take over C.C.'s Code to put an end to her suffering of eternal life. With his immortality, Lelouch would never be able to settle in one place for long, and would always need to hide his true identity. While Suzaku live a masked life among the world leadership, Lelouch would be watching the evolution of the human civilization from the "lowly" perspective of a hermit or obscure commoner.

Thus, plotwise it makes significantly more sense for Lelouch to take over C.C.'s eternal suffering as the price he had to pay.

Lelouch not dying does not change the story into a happy ending. In fact, it is sadder compared to him dying, if you really understood the anguish and suffering C.C. had to endure through the centuries.

Yeah, I know what the official word is, but I also wouldn't be surprised if anything got retconned to make sequels when Sunrise decide to squeeze more money out of the franchise. -Afker All hail AliceSoft! 02:33, 16 January 2009 (UTC)
