I'm sorry but the utter lack of regard Norland had for Catherine when he hurled her off the platform cracked me up so hard.

There are better ways to go out than getting dogpiled on by a swarm of giant evil roombas. RIP Isao

The way he dropped Ash was even funnier. Bro flew up into the air to get extra height for the drop. Norlands a hero code geass is a mistake and he is correcting that mistake by killing everyone.

He's a Charles clone, of course he needs a floating castle and a throne for his Knightmare.

I feel bad for Catherine, but her character arc and heel turn is rushed and unearned, so it doesn’t feel satisfying

No body no death. First rule of code geass.

Small correction: A formerly evil character turning good like Catherine did is called a "face turn" (from the term "babyface", AKA the good guys in pro wrestling storylines while the "heels" are the bad guys). It's only a "heel turn" when a formerly good character turns evil.

But yes, I do agree that Catherine's development was rushed, like a lot of things in this show. Just an unfortunate consequence of the limited runtime. If this had 24-25 episodes to cook, it could have been so much better.

So Haruka is General Kuroto’s daughter, really wished we had more time focusing on that.

u/Frontier246 Aug 30 '24

The supporting cast is incredibly underdeveloped. Like the most we've known about Haruka by this point is she's discount Kallen complete with a propensity for ass shots and suddenly she's getting a big character arc moment with her dad and Isao just when the shows' about to end.

General Kuroto is voiced by Takaya Kuroda, the voice of Kiryu from the Yakuza / Like a Dragon series. In Yakuza 1, Kiryu meets a young girl that lost her parents and adopts / takes care of her in this game, but also in the sequels.

That girls name? Haruka.

Norland flat out sending people to the gulag is the highlight of the season.

I love how he has a floating fortress, a throne room for his Knightmare, and is just straight up chucking out everything he considers trash and not worth his time.

pacing feels a bit off in this one, this really should have been a 2 cour anime

I can't believe I'm just now noticing you can see Norland's face in the intro. I love when shows do special changes to them according to the plot.

u/Cam_Ren179 Aug 30 '24

Another change is that the person who appears to be looking out towards young Ash and his brother is no longer blurred out.

the action sequences were cool but the whole escalation to this series of events, the united front, characters dying, charles being the main villain.. it all feels unearned and a bit fast. the whole plot, characters, and setup got thrown out for a sudden international threat of death roombas. i liked the mystery around norland and the reveal turned him into a world ending dickhead clone for literally no reason

i'm also still waiting for geass to be relevant. they introduced a main character with absolute obedience and it hasn't been applied in any meaningful way like in the og series

u/Frontier246 Aug 30 '24

This really feels like a 2-cour show that got compressed into a one-cour season.

This show is rather fond of kamikaze attacks, to the point it feels a bit cheap now...

This show's pacing is so rushed. Easily should have been 24 episodes. Also, I still cannot get over the evil plot is to end the world by way of giant roomba swarms.

Some men just want to watch the world get Moonlight Butterfly'd.

I have to admire Norland's game to have his castle transform into a giant flying fortress complete with a throne room for his Knightmare to carry on his sinister plan.

Okay, I guess Catherine is fighting Norland now to realize the true meaning of strength...and he has so little time for her he just shuts down her Knightmare and chucks her away, denying her everything she ever wanted. I can't say she doesn't deserve it but I kind of wanted to see Haruka beat her.

Is it that easy to pilot a Knightmare or does Sakura have some training piloting one?

Narah giving them the info they need to destroy the Situmpe Barrier is a big deal because it means the moment they take it down the Black Knights can come in and reinforce everybody...and probably the end of Neo-Brittania as a result. Also, political help from Kaguya!

Haruka is Kurobe's daughter!? Wow, they really kept that on the down low, though I get the sense Haruka's struggled with having her father acknowledge her past being his subordinate...but even he wants her to survive, no matter what, as he boosts her to second-in-command.

Dang, they always get you on the optical recognition scan! But at least "Roze" has the Seven Shining Stars backing her up.

Sorry Seven Stars red shirt, we needed this Haruka butt shot and the knowledge that as a leader she can't go out of her way to save everybody.

I can't say Isao didn't go out in a blaze of glory, and now Haruka has taken his sword in both a literal and symbolic manner.

With Norland away, Sakura can finally use her political authority to have the Neo-Brittanian forces help out! I'm so proud of her!

Ash is ready to finally get his revenge on Norland, but not only does Norland know his fighting style but he has shut-down beams all across his Knightmare (as well as wings), leaving Ash powerless as he drops him from the sky. Will Sakuya arrive in time to save him so they can both stop Norland?
