Ah yes, well with this episode I can say that IMO it's getting better. spoiler[Jeremiah's reaction to Zero calling him "orange boy" was hilarious.] Laughing

I noticed a few things in the dub too- they used honorifics calling Tamaki "Tamaki-san" and the ending ran a little longer seeing as how they used one more still image than usual.

Episode 11 is out on Adult Swim's website, and it's full of AWESOME and revelations just how I remember it! Like for example....

spoiler[- one of the most awesome mecha fight so far in this series, Karen's Guren Mk. II vs. Suzaku's Lancelot, and they were evenly matched if it weren't for Karen tripping over the cliff.

- then comes C.C. completely mind-fu**ing Suzaku thus revealing snippits of his past.

- And then Zero gets a glimpse of the freaky images that includes some of C.C.'s past

- And finally the cave scene where we get the absolutely cute Lelouch x C.C. moments! Embarassed ]

I remember I had a double-take with that scene to see if it's what I thought of, and my golly it really is! Laughing

And yes, spoiler[Shirley and Lelouch did kiss at the end of the episode (man, that scene made it more painful since I'm simultaneously watching Season 2 right now with the given events)]

So they kept that scene in. I was expecting it to be cut, given that they even blurred out Kallens cleavage (not nipples, just cleavage) but I guess they figured that you had to be old enough and have a dirty mind already to know what was going on anyway.

Yeeeeah I guess when there's no actual nudity, even partial, there's no need to cut out the scene. What surprises me more is the fact that the episode is still only rated TV-14V with no "S" to indicate that there is some sexual content. Maybe it wasn't enough for the FCC to notice.

@emory:
I seem to have forgotten about that. Embarassed
Although it's not like [as] could ever receive scrutiny for it since this show is aired at 1 AM on a Saturday night.

Poor table.


I don't know. Seems like if I was a table, this would be an excellent break from the monotony of it all. Razz

As for the more important parts of the episode, I find it interesting that Zero is now just blatantly using C2 like he did. I guess I figure she is kind of a trump card, but the more he exposes her, the more people are going to put two and two together. I was also unclear whether it was him or C2 that was controling the nightmares at the Kyoto group headquarters. Maybe someone can clear that up for me.

Maaan, that episode was insane. spoiler[The end of it, jeez. This show suddenly got a lot better.]

And yeah, that one scene...I had to go online just to make sure I wasn't imagining that.

spoiler[Lelouch was in one of the four Knightmares. He simply attacked and disabled the other three. There was no Geass usage there.]

Yeah, I would assume his geass was just spoiler["get me access to one of the security detail's Nightmares",] once he had it he was golden.

They explained how America became Britannia in episode 12 during the classroom scene. spoiler[Apparently Elizabeth III fled to America and the colonies became Britannia.]

Anybody else see a black screen instead of the episode, or is it just us lucky Houston area viewers?

Just you.

Anyway, Lelouch is officially a total bastard.

spoiler[Seriously, I mean sacrifices are needed sometimes, but now he is just acting like a two-bit gangster.]
