Hey there. The idea to gather actual facts is really good. As it is stated, there are many misinformation about the end of Code Geass.

Sadly... all this is purely translated material, which leads to a lot of mistakes.

1) the Zero Requiem epilogue translation is ABSOLUTELY WRONG.

- "A man dies" is actually "There was a boy" (in Japanese : "otoko ga ita", basically it's the japanese "Once Upon a Time" : it's a common sentence to start narrating a story).

- "But I know he died with a smile" is actually "I know what he was smiling for." [implying : "despite the fact that the world despised him, he would still smile, and I (C.C) understand that" ; then she continues saying "it's something that anyone who reached their goal understand"].

You got it : that new epilogue actually doesn't talk about Lelouch's death.

2) I laughed so hard when I read "If that scene were truly so important to understand the story it wouldn't have been dropped."

It's a 2 hours recap of 25 episodes (25*20min = more than 8 hours), there are TONS of things important for the story that got dropped.

Really, you should erase those two points, since this article is supposed to gather actual facts ^^. The first one is plain wrong, and the second one is pure assumption.
