Well well, Code Geass is such an attention grabbing show. Cordelia likes the brother she doesn't know she wants to kill, or that he wants to kill her.

2 episodes away from the end of season 1. So being forced to kill Euphy after having a reason to avoid it is the start of Lelouch's descent into madness. Out of control Geass made an idea that came on his mouth an order he could not stop her from executing.
Royal family relations are kind of creepy here. Lelouch loved Euphy, both she and Nunnally loved Lelouch in a "I want to marry him" way when they were young. I think Nunnally still thinks that way. Cordelia touches Euphy like she has a lesbian love to her. The second child of the emperor flirts Cordelia, like he wants to kiss her, and she likes it. With all that, Euphy grew to be the most reasonable of them. I'm kinda glad Clovis died before making the story more convoluted.

Officially done with season 1, what a cliffhanger to end with. However season 2 starts, it won't be a shocker.

Wasn't hard to expect. Reminds me a bit of Samurai Deeper Kyo, when Mibu Kyoshiro surfaces again, and comes out as the guy who defeated Demon Eyed Kyo, after a long time of being weak Kyoshiro with Demon Eyes as the Hulk to his Banner.

This Li Xingke, one moment he's with the black knights, another he's against them, then he joins in again. I'll wait a little before making more complaints about this character. The plan Lelouch used to manipulate Rolo made me laugh.

The "We're all Zero" movement and travelling on an iceberg was fun to watch.

How did Lelouch do it? He's in the school student council club house in Japan while he's in the middle of a battle in China?

Sayako dressed as Lelouch is funny, dates with almost every girl in school.

Schneizel knows his little brother is his enemy, Zero. I hate how the conqueror comes out with "Freedom fighters, you are terrorists, you kill us after we killed you, now you cause the death of more of your people. Was this fight back worth it?"
Reminds me of Asterix in the Olympics, they made fun of that.

The use of Geass strains the heart is new. Goodbye Rolo, you were nice at the end. Lelouch was lucky Rolo didn't personally kill him.

I didn't like any appearance by Lelouch's father. Good riddance to bad trash.
The unused sisters of Lelouch are now maids, that's funny.

Heh heh. Turning Schneizel into a slave is brilliant.

After finally going through all of Code Geass both seasons, I fully appreciate this advice.

Code Geass is absurd but fun. Don't take it too seriously and you'll probably enjoy it a lot.
So how I place them on order from favorite to least favorite after going through the entire list. (Well, most of what's in it.):

Saw Psycho Pass 2, and it's pretty good. I like season 1 more.

You should put Shinsekai Yori on your list, and then jump it to the top and watch it immediately. Fantastic show. Don't go near the English dub.

Saw episode 1, thought this is something kind of new, and it's a bit weird. Took a break, came back, and before I continue with episode 2 I see episode 8 with same gender love. I'm not a supporter, sorry.
Anyway, into episode 2, and the Emperor's palace reminds me of the Sultan's palace in Disney's Aladdin.

I hear episode 8 turns a lot of people off the show, which is a real shame, because the arcs following are fantastic.
If it really bothers you, then just grit and bear it, it doesn't last very long.

Not sure how long it has been since I watched Shinsekai Yori all the way to the end, but I like it.
A series that got my attention for a while and I finally saw it from start to finish is Tokyo Ghoul, it's interesting how it moved a range of emotions in me. That ending is beautiful, the most beautiful anime season ending for me thus far.
I watched the show dubbed, it's a solid entertaining dub, nothing made me annoyed.
