Lelouch has now lost almost everything he ever thought was precious to him. Even the Black Knights, which were his last stand, are gone just because they listened Schneizel´s bullshit. How stupid Ougi can be, when he believes that Schneizel will actually give Japan back to them. Even if he does that, he won´t do it just like that. There must be some more conditions than handing over Zero. And how can the Black Knights even consider that they will survive without Zero? During the last episode of the first season, we saw how capable they are making decisions without Zero’s leadership. Well, they might have some chances because they now have Xing Ke, but I´m not so sure if he´s willing to co-operate with them anymore after they made that deal with Britannia. Wonder how UFN will react when they hear about Ougi´s bright idea. I bet they will be very pleased when they realize that their only army sold itself. ¬_¬

Thanks to the Black Knights´ betrayal, Lelouch loses his last will to live. He was ready to die until Rolo saved him. But Rolo used too much Geass while rescuing Lelouch and his heart stopped. At least he died happily, because Lelouch accepted Rolo as his brother before he passed away. By sacrificing himself for Lelouch´s sake, even after being told he was just used as a tool, Rolo proved how devoted he was to Lelouch. He understood that Rolo desperately wanted to prolong his life, even for a short while. This act made him realize that his purpose isn´t completely lost. He still has one thing to do before he can die, he has to kill the Emperor.

Nina´s starting to regret building FLEIA after she sees the destruction it caused. Lloyd asks her to make hard decision: if she doesn´t want to lose herself, she needs to discard either science or her feelings. Considering Nina´s hate towards Zero, she might choose the latter. But, this was the first time she actually killed someone, not just tried it. It´s not a surprise that Nina, who was a gentle girl before, would be affected by this, that´s why she might even choose to abandon science. Whether she decides to become a cold-hearted bastard or student again, I don´t care which way she chooses. Code Geass R2 is finally giving Nina some real character development and that´s what matters. I can´t wait to see how her situation continues.
