Code Geass R2 Midseason Retrospective (The Good, The Bad And The ????)

Let Me Just Put On My Judge’s Wig….There We Go

Since we are roughly at the mid point of Code Geass R2 as far as we know I thought I’d take a moment to step back and look at where we are in the series by going over the points I feel have been well done as well as those I think have not been handled very well.  Normally I shy away from this type of thing, but lately I’m feeling pressured to stand up and make my less positive views (things I would normally keep to myself until the end of it’s run) on the series known with taunts of fanboy greeting me far more often then I would imagine seeing for a person just arguing a neutral standpoint.  I hope by the end of this people who think I’m a fanatic might see what I am really about.

Code Geass R2 Episode 11 (The Real Romance Of The Three Kingdoms)

You Should Smile A Little, It Would Look Good On You….You Know…For A Change

So a lot of things come to pass in this episode that I had forseen to some degree, but nothing I predicted with regard to the episode itself can compare to the fact that I was dead on when predicting that DarkMirage would use the Shinkirou to make himself look cooler and has in fact started referring to it as the Dark Mirage.  Mindtaking or just kind of obvious, you be the judge, either way you gotta take what you can get in this business.  I myself used Graham Acre a number of times to make myself look cooler. :p Still this pseudo newtype power to predict the behavioural patterns of people I barely even know is getting scary.  And now the episode.
