Probably one of the most subtle and great showing of character development ever for so many different characters that we could even forgive if that part was a bit contrived.

>>142935501
I say a bit because C.C kept on warning him of the dangers of Geass' continued use. Also the situation and its high stake may have contributed to it happening right then and there.
That is why I saw not completely contrived.
>>
>>142933068
Calling it a trainwreck implies that it's somehow a failure or even a disaster, and Code Geass is neither of those things.
>>
Thinking back to the first time I saw it, the only reactions I had were escalating levels of asking myself "what the fuck". My reaction hasn't changed at all.
>>
>>142932985
I still regret that I let myself get spoiled on this scene before watching it. I think it robbed it of a lot of impact and also made me sit the entire time thinking about the scene whenever Euphie was involved.

A shit tier mecha series.

How is a trainwreck a failure?

>>142936244
Do you know what a trainwreck is, either in the literal sense or in the idiomatic sense?
>>
>>142936401
Yes and yes
>>
>>142932985
Genocide caused by a Geass glitch.
>>
>>142936425
I sort of doubt that, since you asked how a trainwreck is a failure. Unless you mean to say that a disaster is a success.
>>
>>142936584
So just because someone asks you a question means they don't know the answer to it? Think about that for a second and take a good long look at yourself.

Just because something is a 'disaster' in one sense doesn't make it a failure in another sense.

It would be an easy fix:

Let's start off with the pic...it's related. Euphie's event was required for Lulu to learn that he was relying on the Geass too much, and for it to go off in such a haphazard way proved how dangerous it can be.

Feel free to post this again in a few hours.

No, it's not really a trainwreck in retrospect.. Only a moron would have believed that Euphemia's plan was going to work out. Code Geass literally named the episode BLOODSTAINED EUPHY and had Lelouch barge into her room with the intention of ruining everything.

Isn't it about time for a new Sunrise mecha trainwreck?

She was never known to be physically blind. They always said it was psychological in origin, so the revelation didn't change that.

What is Lelouch grabbing his eye like twice before?

>altering the direction the show was following

Nope. It was always Lelouch vs. Britannia/the world.

What would have changed the direction is the idea that her plan could have any traction at all. Now THAT would have been a total change.
>>
>>142935335
That's silly of you. Show was always contrived.

You also missed the last three episodes of season one, which were genuinely awesome.
>>
>>142937207
Except they didn't make it a secret that something bad was going to happen, especially to Euphemia, so only waifufags or fools would fall for a red herring handshake being real.
>>
>>142937902
They've been making plenty of those. But they haven't made another good rollercoaster since this one.

>>142937967

It's neither.

Which was the bigger rollercoaster, CG or SF?

One of the picture dramas suggested that Euphemia knew she was shit at coming up with good plans and that she was using Suzaku to get what she wanted, but felt she had to come up with a way to help.

>>
>>142939383

I am sure that was pressure from Bandai since it was popular and I think this was after Gundam 00 that I dont think it was much of a success either.

Of course it wasnt the only issue, I mean we are talking about the same person that gone on and wrote Guilty Crown and Valvrave ...

He wrote less than half of the first and the latter seemed too random. It lacked directorial input.

Still listed in the credits and honestly, they share too many similarities to be a coincidence.
>>
I remember when Code Geass was airing and there was a delay in anyone picking it up for subtitling.

There were people on /a/ who thought this was because it portrayed the West as being bad.
