Why didn’t Lelouch rule the world forever as an immortal monarch instead of running away from his responsibilities?
Anything after R2 isn't canon.
>>23644112Why would he want to be immortal in the first place? To see his sister and friends die of old age? To risk being painfully killed again and again like in Ajin? The better question is - why the hell did he devise a suicide plan when he knew perfectly that the world would have reverted back to shit the moment he exited the stage? So making a better world for your sister was a sham? Crushing Britiannia in its expansionist form was a lie? In the end, all his effort had been for nothing, as proven in Re;surrection.
>>23644112He was more motivated by revenge than anything else. Rehabilitating Britannia's image by being a legitimate ruler would have defeated the point of what he was trying to accomplish from the beginning. He wanted to tear down his family's legacy. All of it.
>>23644112Suzaku forgave him on the condition they both leave their old lives behind.
>>23644224He just wanted to die because Nunally was dead, Shirley was dead and he burned his bridges with everyone else. By the time he finds out Nunally is still alive he's already committed to the plan and decided rather than be wishy washy he'd ride it to the bitter end
>>23644112A Duel thread
>>23644224He was backed into a corner after multiple missteps, betrayals and hilariously bad luck. Given his personality, desperation and self-loathing, my guess is this was basically the final Plan Z, the last and only plan he could come up with. So a combination of deep-seated personality flaws and every single other plan getting burnt to the ground. From an outside perspective, it's easy to criticize and full of holes, but given his personality, it's easy to see why he'd resort to this.It's like asking why a kleptomaniac would steal.

>>23644112Lelouch died..

Yeah you're right let's make his famous saying about how the only ones who should kill are those prepared to be killed complete hypocrisy by making him immortal
>>23645298SRW Y literally spoils the end of CG in it's opening scene
>>23645031>Shirley was deadI'm glad this got retconned
>>23646073It didn't thoughShe's dead, bro
>>23646073Keep Shirley alive was only done to say the movies are a separate canon and they aren't really undoing the tv ending. Which shows such a lack of confidence in their stories it's not surprising the Code Geass sequels haven't been big successes.
>>23646832Its funny watching people come up with silly headcanon like this.They just didn't kill her in the compilations because they didn't have time to do her arc.Shes dead bro
>>23647404She appears alivein the Resurrection movie even though she doesn't do anything there. Her being alive is just a "this isn't canon to the tv series" sign.
>>23647450You are over thinking things. They included her because they just put out 3 compilation movies for the 10th Anniversary, they wanted people to see those. That's it. That's why they made the manga version of Re;surrection, it was made 100% compliant with the TV series and they kept Shirley dead.Everything after Resurrection came out has treated Resurrection as a continuation of the TV series.
>>23644112Because nothing lasts forever.
>>23644112Sword related retirement.
>>23645493Still doesn't excuse his sudoku intent reasoning, actually, goes against everything he stood for in the series.
>>23649183No it doesn't
>>23647513Plus, the reason she lives in the compilation movies was because a lot of her arc such as her father's death and Mao got cut.
TSS - Total Shirley Survival
>>23649295Yeah. If her living was meant to be a bigger deal than just not being done for time, they would have made the manga a straight adaptation and given her more scenes there like they did other things. Instead, they just ignore it and followed the TV series events for the expansion.
>>23647450>>23647513They included her because it was funny as hell to get an after credits card with Lelouch calling her up to say "Hi it's me I am alive and so are you apparently Also CC and I got married LOLOOLOLOLOL".
>>23647611 met a traveller from an antique land,Who said—“Two vast and trunkless legs of stoneStand in the desert. . . . Near them, on the sand,Half sunk a shattered visage lies, whose frown,And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,Tell that its sculptor well those passions readWhich yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed;And on the pedestal, these words appear:My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings;Look on my Works, ye Mighty, and despair!"Nothing beside remains. Round the decayOf that colossal Wreck, boundless and bareThe lone and level sands stretch far away.
>>23647404>>23647513It's funny you think a manga adaptation that no one's read is the canon version over the movie version which most people actually have watched. This is hard cope if anything.
>>23653122Because it is the canon versionEven the Code Geass gacha used it over the actual movie when it covered the Re;surrection plot.
>>23653122>>23653582They've pretty much completely replaced the movie's Gekkoei with the Gekkoei Sui in everything since SRW, so yeah the manga is the canon version now.
>>23656764Acrylic shit again. Cheapest trash.
>>23660139A new figure?
>>23645022Why haven't they? Lelouch should have hypnotised some Britannian noble into sudokuing for him on Suzaku's sword.
