Plot

Part I: Lelouch of the Rebellion

It begins with the image of Suzaku Kururugi and Lelouch vi Britannia as kids, playing in an almost fairytale environment of untouched nature, with the figure of C.C. watching them. A swarm of cicades is shown next and C.C. then announces the event of the world, the conquering of Japan with Lelouch and Suzaku in the middle of it, to see everything. While Suzaku was detached but sad, Lelouch was angry and vowed to destroy the Holy Britannian Empire. Seven years later in 2017, Britannia has complete control over the former Japan, now renamed Area 11, save for a minor fraction of Japanese resistance now considered terrorists. The military is in direct pursuit of a hijacked vehicle, which underlines the militaristic and thoroughness and vigilance of the conquering power. On TV, propoganda is related by the "terrorist group" by a spokeswoman. 

The TV announcing the news is closed in a room where a chess match is over, close to winning by a Britannian noble. At that time, Lelouch and his friend, Rivalz Cardemonde, enter the room with Lelouch claiming he can turn the situation on the chess table in under 9 minutes. He starts his game by moving the king, foreshadowing a pivotal point later on. At the Ashford Academy, Milly Ashford, Nina Einstein and Shirley Fenette are discussing Lelouch's gambling habits, with Shirley highly disapproving it and Milly teases Shirley over her affection with him. Next is a parallel scene between the hijackers, Takeshi Nagata and Kallen Kozuki where Nagata is lamenting at the fact that their comrades got them followed by not following the established plan, while the noble is surprised to have been beaten at chess by Lelouch. Rivalz compliments Lelouch on his victory, and is happy that the ego of the nobles will force them to pay, which he notes also made them lose. As they walk out, they are interrupted by the Viceroy of Area 11, Prince Clovis la Briannia's "heart-breaking" speech which turns out to be an act, which he boasts to the other nobles gathered where he transmitted from. He is however surprised by pressing news and bursts, under the vigilant eyes of Diethard Ried. General Bartley Asprius suddenly appears to inform Clovis of a serious matter. Clovis orders all Knightmare pilots to recover the missing cargo now in the hands of the terrorists. Following the command, Jeremiah Gottwald and Villetta Nu enter their Knightmares. On the road, Rivalz accidentally cuts in the way of the terrorists, resulting in their vehicle's crash. People gather, much to Lelouch's disgust, they're more interested in placing the blame and gawking over the incident than helping, prompting him to go and assess the situation. As he inspects the crash, he hears a voice, but is thrown in the back of the truck, as Nagata puts in reverse for an attempted getaway. As he notices they are being followed by the Britannian military, Kallen assures him that they will be fine as this is the reason why is he here. She moves towards the back of the truck and Lelouch notices that she looks familiar. Kallen uses a Glasgow to facilitate their escape, to which Lelouch realizes that they are terrorists and he is trapped with them in the truck. Kallen is able to destroy most of the VTOLs by using her slash harken however Jeremiah appears in his Sutherland and easily outmatches Kallen and her Glasgow. Nagata tells Kallen for them to split up as they both can not be killed. Villetta appears and injures Nagata while Kallen ejects her Glasgow's arm in order to escape from Jeremiah.

Meanwhile, Earl Lloyd Asplund is seen with Bartley who deduces the military's mission is to track tthe terrorists back to their hideout and exterminate them when in actuality deduced from Cecile Croomy and offers his help. Cecile questions Bartley on what the terrorists have stolen to which he replies that the terrorists have captured a poison gas capsule which may be used as a weapon against the Britannian military. Honorary Britannians are sent to retrieve it and Nagata, who is gravely injured, runs into a ditch which he stops the truck from moving. Suzaku, who is among the Honorary Britannians, finds the vehicle and confronts Lelouch, who he believes is a terrorist. Suzaku recognizes Lelouch and reveals himself to him. Nagata opens the capsule, to which Suzaku puts his own gas mask on Lelouch's face. The capsule opens, instead of gas, as Suzaku expected, a restrained C.C. appears. Before they can get answers, Suzaku's superiors come and tell him not to question his briefing, and to shoot the "terrorist", Lelouch. When he refuses, he is promptly shot in the back. Nagata, in his dying moments, explodes the truck, giving Lelouch and C.C. the opportunity to escape. Clovis, believing they have eluded them, orders the purge of the entire Shinjuku Ghetto. The young and elderly are killed indiscriminately in this massacre. Just as they seem to have evaded detection, Lelouch's phone rings, giving him away. As the Royal Guard are about to execute him, C.C. jumps in front and is shot in the forehead. A desperate Lelouch now thinks of his impending death, his last thought being of his younger sister, Nunnally. He is the grabbed by the hand by C.C., who proposes a contact which would allow him to live and endow him with the power of kings. He accepts and stands up, reinvograted, ordering his pursuers to kill themselves, which they do with a smile. He then retrocratively contemplates this moment, noting his life is a lie, but that he accepts it as long as he has the power from it.

Lelouch is puzzled with his newly acquired power and ponders on what to do with it. However, he is interrupted by an explosion caused by a Sutherland that makes it's way inside. Villetta who is piloting the Sutherland that makes it's way inside. Villetta who is piloting the Sutherland notices the dead bodies that belonged to the Royal Guard and questions on how they are all dead before finding Lelouch standing alone. She questions him on why he is here in the first place, but does not receive a response. Lelouch attempts to use her Geass to force her out of her Sutherland, but soon realizes that his power requires eye contact in order to work. Instead, Lelouch gives Villetta an alias that he is of nobility and requests her of his protection, forcing her to leave her Knightmare. Lelouch is then able to use his Geass and compels her to hand over the Activation Key to her Knightmare. Meanwhile, Lloyd wakes up Suzaku who has been tended to after being shot by the Royal Guards, teasing the boy about how he had missed his chance of going to heaven. Cecile reveals to Suzaku that the pocket watch that he was carrying was what saved him from being killed as it deflected the bullet. Lloyd then asks him if he would be a Knightmare pilot.

It returns back to the Shinjuku Ghetto where the Britannian military is still killing the Elevens and Kallen, who is still piloting the Glasgow, tries to defend the fleeing Elevens from the Britannians, while Kaname Ohgi and the other members of the resistance do the same as well. Meanwhile, Lelouch contacts Shirley in order to ascertain the situation in Shinjuku. After deducing that reinforcements can't be called in, he decides to work with the terrorists in order to destroy the Britannian forces. Kallen is closed in by Jeremiah and another Pureblood and she attempts to retreat. Lelouch makes contact with Kallen and tells her to go to the west entrance. Although hesitant at first, she complies and is then ordered to jump onto the train. Jeremiah, however, is unfazed by this and stops the train before ordering his subordinate to pursue the Glasgow, but is destroyed by slash harkens from Lelouch's Sutherland. Shocked, Jeremiah assumes it was caused by friendly fire before realizing that the Sutherland was stolen. He attempts to attack Lelouch, but has his Knightmare's Landspinner destroyed. Kallen rushes to towards Jeremiah, prompting him to eject.

Ohgi and the others arrive to Kallen's location and decides to follow under Lelouch's orders who has given them Sutherlands to use. Following under Lelouch's orders, Ohgi's group easily dominates Clovis's forces. They systematically destroy all Britannian units in the area, but Clovis, determined not to be defeated, comes up with a plan: he gives the order to break the encirclement protecting him in order to surround the area where the rebels were suspected to be believing that they have a number advantage, but the rebels have retreated to the subways. Kallen then uses her Glasgow's slash harken to damage the supports which causes ground underneath Clovis' unit to collapse, effectively destroying them and pushes Clovis into a corner. With no choice left, he gives permission for Lloyd to utilize his new creation, the first seventh generation Knightmare Frame, Lancelot.

With Suzaku piloting the Lancelot, he resolves himself to destroy the enemy units in order to cease the bloodshed. Lelouch receives intel of a new Knightmare that is cutting his forces to shred and attempts to counterattack it. However, Suzaku and the Lancelot are able to easily overpower the terrorists and spots Lelouch. Realizing that the Lancelot is too powerful, Lelouch attempts to retreat. Kallen interjects in their fight in order to buy Lelouch time to escape, but is easily overpowered causing her to eject. Lelouch is able to escape the building, but is again followed by the Lancelot. He shoots the buildings in an attempt to damage the Lancelot, but Suzaku easily dodges all of them. However, Suzaku notices a woman and her child falling and decides to give up following Lelouch in order to save them. Near Clovis' G-1 Base, Lelouch is seen disguised as a Britannian soldier and uses his Geass on a soldier to gain access into the base. On the otherhand, Kallen meets up with Ohgi and the others in a warehouse full of Elevens in order to hide from the military. Ohgi and Kallen discuss about the mysterious voice who was issuing commands and wonders why the person doesn't answer back when they try to reach him. However, they are surprised when the Britannian military locates their whereabouts and prepares to fire at them. Before the order is given, a ceasefire is made by Clovis, saving them from death.

Meanwhile, inside the G-1 Base, it is revealed that Lelouch has made it all the way to Clovis's position and was the one who threatened Clovis to order a ceasefire to all of his forces. Clovis jokingly asks to his masked gunman on what they should do next, mentioning a game of chess. Lelouch on the otherhand states that they use to play chess together when they were both young at the Aries Villas. This only puts Clovis into more confusion as only members of the Imperial Family know and have been there. Lelouch then reveals himself to Clovis. Meanwhile, two soldiers converse about their concern over the ceasefire order as Kallen, Ohgi and many others are seen being led out of the battle zone. The soldiers then realize that Clovis has been left alone in his base and Lelouch is still holding a gun to Clovis. Clovis speaks as if he is happy to find that Lelouch was not killed when Britannia invaded Japan and even goes as far to suggest that the two of them should return home to Britannia. This is not an option as he does not want to be used as a tool for political ends and he says as much to Clovis. Lelouch begins to explain the events of the death of his mother, Marianne. A flashback is shown of the day Marianne died and Nunnally personnally witnessed the tragedy. Lelouch continues to explain that even though it was made to look like terrorists had killed his mother, he knows that the royal family had something to do with it. Clovis frantically denies that he had any involvement in the matter. Lelouch then uses his Geass to force Clovis to tell him the truth about who it was that actually killed her. Unfortunately, Clovis does not know much and is only able to tell Lelouch to ask either Prince Schneizel el Britannia or Princess Cornelia li Britannia as they know more about it than he does. Lelouch believes him that all he knows and releases him from Geass. Clovis pleads his innocence a little more before Lelouch pulls the trigger on the gun.

Lelouch is then found, with the other student council members, at school. Milly smacks Lelouch on the head and orders him to wake up as he had apparently been napping. Rivalz starts questioning him to find out what happened after Lelouch ditched him but Milly interrupts them before Lelouch can answer and brings them all back on task to balance the budget. After some banter, Milly starts to talk about how fit Shirley is which she and then goes on explaining that it was actually how tight hot her ass and tits are. Since Milly, Nina, Shirley and Rivalz walk in on a few students watching the news broadcast about the previous day's events in the ghetto. It is claimed that the terrorists released the poison gas but there are no other details given as Lelouch walks in and joins the rest. Lelouch then starts pondering why Britannia would be covering some details up and a flashback is shown of Lelouch shooting and killing Clovis. As the thought of what he did starts to fill his mind, Lelouch nearly throws up and quickly leaves for the bathroom.

Villetta and Jeremiah are then seen together in a car talking about how the killer of Clovis was able to perpetrate their security multiple times and they both ruminate on the possibility of using the recent upheaval as an excuse to further the power of pureblood Britannians. Back at school, Lelouch walks into a classroom just to find that Kallen has returned to school after having supposedly being very ill and unable to attend. At that moment, Lelouch realizes that Kallen is not just a fellow student but was the member of the terrorist group that he had seen the previous day. Later, Kallen as well as three other girls are having lunch when a bee shows up and causes them all to run away in fear. Kallen escapes and uses a surprising amount of agility to kill the bee with a single swipe as she comments about how annoying it is pretend to be enfeebled. At that moment, Lelouch shows up and uses his Geass to confirm that Kallen is indeed part of the terrorist group. He continues to question her and finds out that she is also a half-blood Britannian. As he is questioning her, Shirley looks on from a high up window and grows a little concerned. Lelouch is satisfied with the answers that Kallen provided and he turns to leave but suddenly decides to use his Geass on her again to ensure that she tells no one about what happened. But, his attempt fails and Kallen grows suspicious of him and begins asking questions of her own. A confused Lelouch is saved from this predicament as Shirley yells from above and urges them to get to class. Lelouch uses this as an excuse and frantically runs away.

That night, Nunnally and Sayoko Shinozaki are passing time waiting for Lelouch to come home by folding paper cranes, which he eventually does. Meanwhile, Bartley is seen disbanding a research division and moving it to Narita Mountains because it was partly his fault that Clovis was left alone and they do not want to be discovered by the emperor. It then goes back to the home of Lelouch as he and Nunnally are having dinner. Nunnally expresses her wish for a gentler world and Lelouch contemplates the future and how to make a happy life for his sister. They then pinky promise to never lie to each other. The following day, Lelouch stands by a river and decides that he must learn all the ins-and-outs of his new-found power. One of his teachers passes by him and he tries to use his Geass on the teacher twice just to discover that it only works once on a person.

Kallen is then see talking to Ohgi about the annoyances of high school. He urges her to stay in school while things cool off for them. They finish by talking about the voice on the radio and Kallen makes the connection to Lelouch. Both Kallen and Lelouch grow concerned that the other might know their true identity and decide to do something about it. After class, Lelouch approaches Kallen and asks to speak with her privately, much to Shirley's dismay. It then shifts to a view of Bartley next to the coffin of Clovis and then Jeremiah and a few other Knightmares attack the hearse and force Bartley to leave. Lelouch and Kallen enter the student council's ball room before they can talk the other student council members interrupt them in order to welcome Kallen as a new member of the student council. Rivalz brings a bottle of champagne but as he tries to open it, Shirley attempts to stop him. He tosses it to Lelouch and due to all the jostling, the cork pop and the champagne gets all over Kallen. While Kallen is taking a shower, Lelouch brings her a fresh set of his own clothes for her to wear, unable to see her behind the shower curtain. Before he can leave, she asks him to bring her a small pink pouch from off a nearby counter. He does so, but as he turns to look away and hand it to her, she grabs his wrist and starts questioning him about Shinjuku. Lelouch plays dumb and Kallen secretly produces a hidden knife out of the pink pouch. Just then the phone near the shower rings, Lelouch then answers it and hands it to Kallen as the caller asks to speak with her. The voice of the commander from the Shinjuku Ghetto comes on the line and asks her to go to Tokyo Tower in two days. Kallen decides that she was wrong about Lelouch being the voice on the radio. After a few excuses, Lelouch sarcastically reminds Kallen that he can see her naked where she gets embarrassed and closes the curtain, Lelouch then leaves the bathroom. It then shifts to show that Sayoko was the one who made the call using a voice recorder while under the influence of Geass. Later, Kallen and Lelouch walk together, talking about the duties of the school council when they walk into a room that has the news playing. The news announces that Clovis was killed and that they have found the culprit, they say that Suzaku is the murderer.

Suzaku is interrogated by Jeremiah over the death of Clovis and the gun used by Lelouch to kill Clovis has been recovered and Suzaku's fingerprints are supposedly all over it. Suzaku denies having seen ever the gun but nobody believes him. Nunnally is then helped into bed by Lelouch, and she is concerned about Suzaku and Lelouch reassures her that everything is fine and that the military has simply made a mistake in arresting him. Shinichiro Tamaki is then shown getting upset at Ohgi for not having issued a statement about their involvement in the battle of Shinjuku Ghetto, claiming that they could have taken credit for Clovis' murder. After Tamaki storms out, Ohgi privately expresses his own self doubts about his leadership abilities. Lelouch is then seen with an artificer, that he has used his Geass on in order to create the Zero costume.

On the next school day, the entire student body of Ashford Academy is assembled for the funeral and tribute to Clovis. Meanwhile, Lloyd and Cecile talk amongst themselves and explain that not only is there nothing they can do to help Suzaku, but it would be difficult, if not impossible, to replace him as a pilot for the Lancelot because Jeremiah has used the arrest of Suzaku to ensure that only pureblood Britannians are capable of being in the military so as to curtail anymore traitorous behavior. After the ceremony, Rivalz tries to get Lelouch to go and rematch some of his former chess opponents while Shirley opposes this idea and tells him not to gamble anymore.  As a surprise to everyone, Lelouch agrees with Shirley and hints that he has found a much better opponent. Later that day, Kallen, Ohgi, Toru Yoshida and Kent Sugiyama all go to Tokyo Tower just as Zero requested on the phone call with Kallen. They spectulate that it was Suzaku that called Kallen and told her to come there. Just as they decide to leave,a voice comes on over the intercom and asks Kallen to come to the front counter as her cellphone has been turned into the lost-and-found. On the observatory, she gets a call from Zero, who tells her to take the outbound train on loop line five.

It then shifts to Jeremiah talking to Diethard about the funeral with Diethard saying that the funeral was prepared well in advance and that now Jeremiah's funeral is being prepared as well due to his rise in status. Jeremiah also requests Diethard for the transfer of Suzaku to his court-martial. They decide to line the streets with many loyal Britannian civilians however Villetta warns that lots of Elevens see Suzaku as a hero and may try to rescue him, so Jeremiah states that he will personally be there to execute anyone that even makes such an attempt. Kallen and the others that accompanied her to Tokyo Tower are now on the train where she gets another call from Zero, who instructs her to look out both sides of the train: one one side is the pristine Britannian city and on the other side is the ruined city that most Elevens call home. They then make their way to the front of the train where they come into contact with Zero. He then explains that the reason he had them look at both sides was to illustrate the fact that they should not be fighting a battle against people or buildings but against Britannia itself. He goes on further to state that the terrorism they have been using in the past is nothing but a nuisance to Britannia, it will not make things better, and should never be waged on the innocent. They demand that Zero show his face but he rebuttals by telling them that if he can do the impossible then that should be enough to earn their trust. At the same time, Kyoshiro Tohdoh is with the Japan Liberation Front as they discuss whether they should save Suzaku or not. Tohdoh says they shouldn't even try to get involved as it would require much more than a miracle to be successful.

Lloyd then sees Suzaku outside his prison cell, telling that the people Suzaku was worried about were not on the casualty reports. Furthermore, Lloyd says that Suzaku's predicament is pretty much helpless as nobody really wants him to be exenorated. That night, the streets are lined with Britannians, just as planned, while many more people from all over watch on television. The procession, with Suzaku held captive, proceeds down the road as Diethard laments his own contribution in the matter. After a few moments, the entire convoy is halted when a car that looks like the vehicle that Clovis used to ride around in approaches them. Kallen is the driver and she barely holds her nerves together as they approach the convoy and face the Knightmares head on. It is shown in a flashback that Kallen and Ohgi are the only ones of the resistance group that had enough faith in Zero to help him rescue Suzaku. Despite their insistence that it is a futile mission, Zero calmly assures them that he has more than enough help to save Suzaku. Back in the present, the top section of the car burns away to reveal Zero standing on top of it. He announces his identity as more Knightmares drop from above and surround the car. Unperturbed, Zero snaps his fingers and revealers the container that he used to hold C.C.. As everyone believes it contains poison gas, Zero uses it as leverage to hold all the Britannians on the road as hostage. No reporter is willing to get close enough to Zero in order to get a good shot of him, so Diethard grabs a camera and runs out to the road in order to do it himself. Back on the road, Zero proposes to exchange the gas for Suzaku but Jeremiah bluntly refuses. Zero then proclaims to the astonishment of all spectators that he was the one to kill Clovis. As the Knightmares raise their weapons and prepare to shoot, Zero threatens Jeremiah to release information about something called "Orange". Nobody knows what that is but they will assume that it is some kind of scandal and Zero then opens a slot on his mask to reveal Lelouch's eye, allowing him to use Geass on Jeremiah, commanding him to do everything he can to release Suzaku and help them escape. Jeremiah complies and releases Suzaku, but the guards weakly try to stop them from escaping as Zero releases the colored gas inside of the container as a diversion. Zero and the others run to the side of the road and jump off, where Ohgi is waiting for them. Fortunately, Jeremiah held all the guards back and ensured their safety. Later, at the resistance headquarters, Kallen and the rest of the resistance talk about the miracle they had just witnessed while Zero and Suzaku share a private conversation. In their conversation, Zero requests that Suzaku join him in order to topple Britannia. Suzaku denies him and says that he wants to change things from within the system. It is also discovered that the gas from earlier was not poisonous, Suzaku then leaves to attend his own court-martial as he believes that he must obey every rule if it means his death. Finally that night, Nunnally is listening to the report on the incident from earlier when someone walks in through the door. Nunnally believes it is Sayoko but as the shadows fade, it turns out to be C.C. back from the dead. Meanwhile, a group of Bamides open fire upon Britannian tanks, only to have General Andreas Darlton and Gilbert G.P. Guilford counter attack in their Gloucesters. As the Bamides begin to fall, the base they were defending erupts in a burst of flames as Princess Cornelia li Britannia has gone ahead in her own Knightmare to destroy the base and fully establish Area 18. She then makes plans with Darlton to head to Area 11, find Zero and avenge Clovis. Lelouch is then see walking into the residence at Ashford Academy and is surprised to be greeted by C.C. and Nunnally. They had both been waiting for him and passed time by folding paper cranes. Nunnally asks about the relationship between the two and C.C. replies by saying that they made a contract, causing Nunnally to think that they are engaged. Lelouch frantically tries to play off C.C.'s comment as a joke but fails, he then purposefully drops a cup of tea on the floor, pretending as if it got C.C. wet in order to get her away from Nunnally. In Lelouch's room, he begins to question her as to who she really is and why she isn't dead. They briefly talk about Geass and Lelouch's plans for destroying Britannia, but before many answers can be given, C.C. abruptly says goodnight to Lelouch and ends the conversation.

Cecile and Lloyd are shown with the Lancelot, discussing how the appearance of Zero has caused an uproar in other terrorist groups and in Jeremiah's career. A brief dialogue is then held in the Japan Liberation Front headquarters as Josui Kusakabe pleads with Tohdoh to help Zero, which Tohdoh refuses to do. The following night, Lelouch and C.C. are talking in his room and it is revealed that "Orange" was nothing but a clever ruse to sow the seeds of suspicion and division in the Britannian military. C.C. continues to eat her pizza and drly asks if he has gotten the response he wanted. Lelouch replies that even more chaos is inevitable before he topples Britannia. It then shifts to Suzaku after he has been acquitted of the charges of murder placed against him. He is walking down a sidewalk when suddenly a girl drops out of the sky and right into Suzaku's arms. She claims that some bad guys are chasing her and asks for his help, and though Suzaku sees through the ruse, he and the girl go for a stroll. Meanwhile, a secret plot amongst the purebloods is being planned in order to eliminate Jeremiah before Cornelia becomes Viceroy. Kewell accuses Jeremiah of feigning amnesia in order to hide secrets, but Villetta believes that what happened to Jeremiah is similar to what happened to her, when her Knightmare was stolen.

Suzaku and the girl, who is named Euphy, are still together and are now walking at a leisurely pace when Euphy stumbles upon an injured cat, where she bandages the cat's leg and hisses at Suzaku before running away. They spend the remainder of the day together visiting stores and are being stalked by Lloyd until Euphy requests to be taken to Shinjuku. The same day, Kallen approaches Lelouch at Ashford to see if he can track down the phone number of the person that called her. Lelouch is able to play it off by saying he can't due to it being a school phone; however, behind Kallen's back, C.C., dressed in Lelouch's clothes, is twirling around and seems to be searching for something. Before Kallen can see C.C., Lelouch grabs her face and keeps her from looking away. Unfortunately, Shirley sees Lelouch holding Kallen and to her, it looks like they are kissing. C.C. then scampers off, and Lelouch then lets Kallen go before confronting C.C. on the school roof. He tries to tell her not to do things that might get her caught but she shrugs it off and she then looks over the balcony to a female student who is making marks on the wall while under the influence of Geass. Lelouch explains that she is a test subject that he is using in order to find the limits of Geass.

Suzaku and Euphy arrive at Shinjuku that evening as some Britannian civilians are taking pictures of the battleground. Also that day, Jeremiah receives a message suggesting that Zero is also in Shinjuku and he rushes off to follow the lead. It shifts yet again as Tamaki rushes into the same area that Suzaku and Euphy are at. He begins to yell at the Britannians and a confrontation seems inevitable until Suzaku runs up and tries to calm everyone down. Tamaki hits Suzaku and calls him a traitor, forcing Suzaku to throw Tamaki into the ground when he comes at Suzaku again. After that, Tamaki and the others with him lose interest and walk off, leaving the Britannians alone. Instead of being grateful, the Britannians just complain and get upset that he didn't kill Tamaki and the others, so Euphy steps in and defends Suzaku by slapping the complainer right in his face. At that time, Lelouch and C.C. are still in his room as Lelouch explains the intricacies of his power. Suzaku and Lelouch then talk about the empire's problems, with Suzaku saying he doesn't know how to stop the fighting while Lelouch claims he will wipe out those who support war. Back at Shinjuku, Jeremiah finds out he was actually set up for a trap and is confronted by Kewell and others that wanted to kill him. Lloyd and Cecile show up with the Lancelot and Suzaku decides to get involved with the conflict and try to stop it. Jeremiah is getting beaten pretty badly but Suzaku saves him and after Suzaku starts winning, Villetta shows up in her Knightmare and helps Jeremiah too. Euphy runs into the battlefield just as Kewell deploys a chaos mine, and fortunately, Suzaku's Lancelot has a blaze luminous shield that allows him to protect himself and Euphy. After he saves her, she steps into the middle of the fray and reveals that she is Princess Euphemia li Britannia and orders everyone to withdraw. After everyone lowers their weapons, Euphemia asks for Suzaku's help in making things better. Euphemia is next seen with Cornelia as she scolds her for getting involved and being so reckless. Cornelia has only just arrived and while there as many matters that she needs to attend to, she eloquently states that she only really cares about finding and catching Zero. Suzaku is then shown in front of Lelouch's class, at Ashford, announcing that he will be joining them as a student.

It then shifts to a scene at some mysterious ruins when a Geass Directorate walks up a flight of stairs and informs Emperor Charles zi Britannia that the remains of Clovis have arrived. The Emperor then informs the man that he was just conversing with Clovis. It then goes back to Ashford where many of the students are gossiping about Suzaku's recent arrival, the Eleven and suspected terrorist. Nina is the most particularly upset about Suzaku while Shirley wants to get to know him. Lelouch stands up to leave the class and, whilst he has Suzaku's attention, gives a short tug on his collar as a secret signal the two know to meet on the roof. Suzaku goes to meet Lelouch, who expresses his gratitude to Suzaku for saving his life earlier. Suzaku claims he was just repaying the favor from seven years prior and asks about happened to the girl from the capsule. Lelouch lies and says they got separated during the fray. Suzaku asks what he should call Lelouch and he explains that Lelouch vi Britannia died when the invasion took place so he goes by Lelouch now. Next, Suzaku explains how Euphemia arranged for Suzaku to attend school because she believed that is where a 17 year old should be. It shifts to show Euphemia examining the artwork done by Clovis and among the art is an old picture of Lelouch, Nunnally and Marianne.

Next, the skirmish of the Blood of the Samurai is shown. Cornelia is leading the charge and eventually goes in solo to search for Zero and wipe out the remainder of those that were fighting. Now back at his home, Sayoko and Nunnally converse for a short moment until Lelouch tells Nunnally that he has a special present for her. Suzaku walks in and grabs Nunnally's hand and she immediately recognizes who it is. The three spend the night catching up and Lelouch then meets C.C. and she questions whether it is wise or not to have Suzaku so close, but Lelouch reassures her. It then changes to show Guilford releasing Jeremiah from his prison cell, claiming that the court couldn't find anything about orange however is demoted three ranks for allowing Zero to escape.

After the dinner, Suzaku and Lelouch part ways in the porch with Suzaku claiming that they shouldn't be friends in order to protect their true identities and Lelouch gets upset over this but the matter is ultimately left undecided. The next day at school, Lelouch doesn't pay Suzaku any heed and the students abruptly talk whenever he enters the room. Furthermore, a couple of guys break into his locker and spray paint on his clothes. Also during that day, Ohgi calls Lelouch to explain what happened to the Blood of the Samurai. He asks for direction but Lelouch provides little reassurance and contemplates cutting his ties with them. In another part of the school, Nunnally converses with Nina, who explains her fear of Elevens.

A flashback from eight years ago shows a young Lelouch entering the Britannian throne room where his father, Charles, awaits to have an audience with him. As Lelouch proceeds towards the Emperor, he hushed the voices of the Nobles, who were discussing the recent death of Marianne. Lelouch finally confronts Charles and tries to bring up his mother's death. Charles does not care at all about her demise and furiously informs Lelouch that he has no value and, along with Nunnally, will be sent off to Japan as bargaining chips.

Back in the present, Lloyd shows off the Lancelot to Cornelia and she promotes Suzaku to Warrant Officer due to his recent success. Meanwhile, Suzaku is doing his homework while Cecile watches and she tells him that she is a little worried about sending him to a high school with so many Britannians. Suzaku agrees that he could have faced some real discrimination but thanks to Lelouch that never really happened. She gives a jam filled rice ball and Lloyd comes in, telling everyone that they are done for the day. Over at Ashford, Shirley and Kallen are setting up Arthur's cat house in the club room.

Factions

The Order of the Black Knights

A group of vigilante rebels who fight against Britannia and they define themselves as the "Heroes of Japan", and differentiate themselves from other terrorist groups, who take hostages and save civilians, though this tactic is to increase public support and recruitment. Most members are Japanese, many of whom have defected from other insurgent groups, though many other peoples, even Britannians are found among their ranks. Their logo is a Geass Sigil with a sword through it.

Holy Britannian Empire

A nation born from the defeated remnants of the British Empire and is the world's dominant military superpower that ruled over one-third of the world and one of the large empire-unions that control Earth in the early 21st Century. It is an absolute monarchy, meaning that the imperial family holds all authority and administrative power, though there is a bicameral legislature in effect. The Upper House is the House of Lords while the Lower House is the Senate and the senators may be drawn from their state legislatures and they represent the common people. The head of state is the Emperor of Britannia and the head of government is the Prime Minister and the Areas are under the control of Viceroys, who are themselves either part of the aristocracy, imperial family or the military. While the policies of Britannia vary depending on the reigning emperor, it's succession is based on social darwinism. Consequently, much bloodshed and in-fighting occurs between members of the royal family; one who wants to become the next monarch has to lie, cheat and murder their way to the top.

Lower nobilty controls much of the business and bureaucracy outside the royal family and capitalism is widely encouraged. The residents of conquered nations can become Honorary Britannian citizen, and while not genuine Britannians or free from discrimination, they are entitled to the same basic rights. Those who refuse to accept honorary citizenship are consigned to live in rundown ghettos, while those who accept it may live in the prosperous Britannian colonial cities called Concessions. Outside the royal family, there were numerous noble ranks before the aristocracy system was abolished:

• Grand Duke
• Duke
• Marquess
• Margrave
• Earl
• Viscount
• Baron
• Knight
• Knight of Honor

An Area is a nation or group of nations that have been conquered by Britannia and made into a colony. Each Area is designated with a number, and it's people are referred to by that number. Areas are given one of three categories: Reformation are Areas that gradually progress through these areas and gain greater degrees of autonomy with it though in the case of a serious setback such as popular uprising the Area may be demoted, Developing and Satellite.

The capital of the empire is the imperial capital of Pendragon and the residences include Britannia Palace, Belial Palace, Warrick Palace, California Base, Texas and Imperial Villa at Aries. English is Britannia's national language and culture derives from the British Empire in a modern state including drinking tea and an appreciation for classical art, opera and equestrianism. Britannia possesses advanced forms of communication including modern cellphones, earpieces, the internet and television and information flows freely, despite rigid censorship and state propoganda in news broadcasts. Britannia is a highly capitalist and consumerist society and the ruthless "survival of the fittest" nature of capitalism fits well with Britannia's belief in social darwinism. Corporations in Britannia wield large amounts of power and influence. These characteristics result in spite for the Britannians being built up, especially among the Numbers. The Britannian government is also not as repressive of the lower class Britannian citizens however power struggles and feuding amongst the royalty and nobility is commonplace. Despite these ruthless characteristics, knightly concepts of chivalry and honor also plays a major role in Britannian culture as well. 

The Britannian Military includes all Armed Forces of the Holy Britannian Empire and is one of the largest, most powerful and most technologically advanced militaries in the world. The Britannian Army is the ground warfare branch and deploy conventional infantry usually when a Knightmare is too large to use and when they are, squads of Honorary Britannians and Britannians are used as grunt work and soldiers are heavily armed and armored with helmeted electronic visors and outside of their armor, army officers and soldiers wear blue uniforms. The Royal Panzer Infantry are made up of Knightmares and pilots of Knightmares are called Knights, having proven themselves in almost all combat situations. Conventional vehicles like tanks, armored personnel carriers and other military vehicles are sometimes used by the Britannian military and large mobile bases such as G-1 Bases are often deployed as a command center and field hospital in potentially hostile territory. 

The other military branches is the Britannian Foreign Legion which allows conquered citizens to serve in the military to fill the gap needed in order to maintain a strong military presence in the Areas, although they were sometimes recruited to serve in the Irregular forces and their tasks are just as menial as they are dangerous. The Britannian Search and Rescue rescue any people who are in distress or imminent dangers, the Britannian Medical Corps are responsible for providing aid in a military operation and are easily recognized by their yellow military truck with the Red Cross emblem on them, the Britannian Air Force are made up of actual airplanes though VTOL gunships and Knightmare VTOL are often used and large hoverships dominate the imperial skies, the Britannian Navy are made up of ships which do not play important military roles but often delegate the role of transport and trade. The Britannian Royal Guards are armed forces whose duty is to protect and serve members of the royal family and come in many types: Lelouch's guard wear grey and white uniforms with half-masks, Schneizel's guard wear green uniforms and sometimes white capes and are led by Kanon, Cornelia's guard wear maroon uniforms and piloted Gloucesters, Charles' guard wore grey uniforms with red sashes and short black capes and carried rifles with elaborate bayonets, Clovis's guard's wear reddish-brown uniforms while officers wear flat caps and a black baldric or a short shoulder cape and the Knights of the Round also have their own personal forces.

Knights are elite specialized armed forces units within Britannia, and generally outside military hierarchy. Many are under personal command of a royal family member and they wield swords along with firearms in combat, and also often wear uniquely designed, elaborate uniforms. The Knights of the Round are the twelve greatest knights in the empire, answerable only to the Emperor and most Knight Orders have a strict code of chivalry. Within regular military rankings, Knights is the term for Knightmare pilots and Britannian Knights also bear the title of "Sir" before their surname.

Euro Britannia is a subject and tributary-empire of the Holy Britannian Empire who are at war with the E.U.. Euro Britannia's known territories are Russia, Georgia, Azerbaijan, Armenia, Ukraine, Latvia, Estonia, Lithuania, Moldova, Romania, Bulgaria and Turkey. It has their own military who use the same weapons and forces as the mainland and has command over the four Chivalric Orders which were established to act as both the sword and shield of Euro Britannia, and their first duty is to protect the empire from all threats. Each Order is made up of elite knights and is commanded by a Grand Master who wields a unique Knightmare. The Grand Masters have strong political influence in the government. 

The empire uses a.t.b. (Ascension Throne Britannia), also called the Imperial Calendar. Their flag resembles the St. George's Cross, the flag of England, warped with the Union Flag of the United Kingdom. It bears a unique coat-of-arms with a lion representing royalty while the serpent represents death and rebirth.

When the High Eunuchs were in power, the Chinese Federation operated along with an oligarchic system as the High Eunuchs concentrate and exercise an absolute power however later the Empress restored power. 

The Chinese Federation holds a substantial amount of territory comprising all of East Asia except for Japan, South Asia, Central Asia and Southeast Asia with notable areas being Mongolia and Militarized Zones of India and Liadong. Their flag has a bronze eight-sided star figure in the center, with a corresponding smaller outlined version in it's center on a burgundy red background.
