It’s been years, and I still can’t get over R2 Episode 22: "Emperor Lelouch."
Why Code Geass R2 Episode 22 is the Perfect Penultimate Tragedy
Nunnally vs. Lelouch? Schneizel with a nuke? The Geass Canceler reveal? This episode is PEAK tragedy.
Lelouch burns every bridge. Suzaku (now his knight) stands by him, but the world sees a tyrant. The episode ends with Lelouch on the world stage, saying: “I am your enemy. The enemy of justice. The enemy of the world.”
Code Geass R2 Episode 22 – “Emperor Lelouch” Still Hits Like a Truck
🔥 🔥
Nunnally, thought dead, reappears as Schneizel’s figurehead. She opens her eyes (cured by the Geass Canceler) and immediately opposes Lelouch. He could use the Canceler to undo her Geass (making her see again) but chooses not to. Why? Because her hatred for “Emperor Lelouch” is necessary for his ultimate plan—the Zero Requiem.
