I was literally sitting on the edge of my seat once Lelouch started taking command. There’s no denying that he’s one good tactician. It looked like the allegiences were already decided for the major characters from the first episode. After watching this episode though, it doesn’t seem so clear-cut anymore. I see it as a good thing for the time being since it adds that much more flavour to the series. We get an idea of where the story is headed, but how things will begin to unravel remains a mystery. The use of pure cg for mechs are all too common these days. I’m glad they stuck with cel shading to make the movements look much more fluid. With Lancelot’s quick maneuvering, using cg would probably make this series less entertaining. If the rest of the series is as good as the first two episodes, then this series is definately going to leave a good impression on me.
