Apparently time flows differently underground which makes some kind of sense when you consider that they can't see the sun. Thats why the director said Yoko was 14.

Adding several characters with basically no point and out of nowhere plot developments are not what I called handled well.

Then how do you explain Simon looking the correct age after the timeskip? Simple, you can't because her age is only made to appease otaku fanwanking. Man do I hate moe.

Wrong word. Fanservice is more like it. Not to fond of that either.

Fanwanking is not fapping.
in any matter, if it's a director's own call, can't chide it for your own misgivings about the target audience.

Well if you're going to expland a war outside of Japan you will need extra players. Some were rekevant to plot development, others were needed to support a point of view. Not everyone HAS to have a vital role in a show. That's just short-sighted.

Correction. The plot devekopments were neatly tied together, you're just venting because it wasn't according to your personal tastes. It wasn't perfect, but then no show is anyway.

Apparently people are still not understanding the concept of "ambiguous ending".

Bumping this because now that I'm in eight episodes of R2, I don't see get the Suzaku hate. Maybe it comes in later episodes?

Because right now, I'm actually kind of liking Suzi more than LeLo.

Suzaku is pretty much a dick from the beginning of R2, but gets much better toward the end, so you'll probably like him more by the end as it is.

I've only seen four episodes of R2, but right now, and all through the first season, I HATE Suzaku. He is a good-two-shoes kind of guy and those types have always bugged me. Not only that but he's a traitor to his own people (so is Lelouch, I know, but Lelouch actually has reasoning). On top of this, Suzaku murdered his own FATHER. Everything about Suzaku pisses me off. He's like the Jews during WWII that became the police of their own people in the ghettos and ratted them out. He's like Vichy regime. Sane people who actually consider what Suzaku is doing to his own people will realize how easy it would be to hate him. If China invaded the USA and took over, and Americans started working for/with the Chinese, it's not different. Those people would be hated by everyone else in the country. He's a moron.

IMO...

Actually, most people are probably thinking: Death to Bishounen failure!!!

Suzaku is the 2nd most hated character imo, and Nina is not that much worse(table humping + crazy b**ch tried to kill Zero-sama).
