(SPOILER ALERT: THIS TOTALLY CONTAINS SPOILERS)
The obligatory fan service chick asks Lelouch on a date (and I’m pretty sure she’s going way out on a limb in terms of defying cultural dating procedure here) and he doesn’t even notice because he’s too busy muttering about Suzaku. Also, everyone dresses up like Cats.
The male characters may be starting to lose it, but Kallen actually steps up as a very compelling heroine in this one. Her drug-addicted, whoring, illegitimate mother is by far the most sympathetic and likeable character in the show. Of course, she goes into a coma like 20 minutes after she’s introduced so maybe that part doesn’t bode so well. But still, Kallen coming to terms with her mom was way more interesting than furry-Yaoi fan service. But I mean, we got both in the same episode, so have your cake and eat it too?
I could live without that cake, really.
