Code Geass 24-25: Predictions and Odds, Ladies and Gents place your bets

I finally get a cameo appearance because my son is such a punk that he never holds any remembrance rituals for me. Why is it that my niece loves me more than my kids…?

So Code Geass season one is going to wrap up soon, seeing as how they have waited so long and hyped it with a couple of commercials it’s betting time for another Sunrise Ending. Will they tie up enough loose ends or will this degenerate into a montage of soft core p0rn and mecha fights? Will they dare make a grandiose pro-Japan statement? Will C2 have one last slice of Pizza Hut Pizza? Will this surpass GSD in crappiness? Will anyone care? Odds are posted in an1 : n2 format, being that if you bet on a 4:1 and it happens you win four times what you put in. Conversely if you bet on a 1:150 the even is likely and you win less than what you put in if it happens. Disclaimer: I am not advocating or promoting gambling, this is just for the sake of humor. The odds were divined by the burning of oracle bones made from the corpses of loser harem males. I take no responsibility if you are dumb enough to use my odds in any sort of bets involving money, labor, etc.

Lulu will pass a spending bill for 50 million USD annually in harem maintenance while the average per capita income in Japan is 150 USD because when you are president for life passing laws is easy. Lulu is the marrying kind and marries that 12 year old whose name I have forgotten half way through. Even better he gets engaged again in the credits. 1:8

Lulu, as president for life, builds a large Shinto shrine to himself dwarfing St. Peter’s Basilica. When asked if it was a folly to build the thing when so many Japanese live in urban ruins with little to eat, he responds that there were homeless and starving people when the cornerstone of Notre Dame was laid. End of discussion. 1:25

Lulu gets to have some problems in the last episode regarding civilized behavior. It will be said on good authority that he eats at least one of his infant children, and math will cease to be his strong suit. He will fail to understand why he can’t just print money when he needs it, so print he does… 1:10

Karen gets a job cleaning elevators in a 12 story building with two lifts. Her boss tells the union rep that “We asked her to clean the lifts and she spent four days on the job. When I asked her why, she replied: ‘well, there are forty of them, two on each floor, and sometimes some of them aren’t there.’ Eventually we realized that she thought each floor had a different lift, and she cleaned the same two twelve times. We had to let her go. I understand now that she is now a professor at Tokyo Lulu Presidential University.” 1:4

After realizing that her military pension isn’t really going to cut it any more Karen gets a job driving mental patients between ‘sanatoriums.’ While transporting 20 mental patients from Kyoto to Osaka she stops off at a bar. When she gets back to her bus she finds it empty, with all 20 passengers gone. Realizing the trouble she was going to be in if the truth came out, she halted the bus at a next bus stop and offered rides to those in line. After 20 people boarded she shuts the doors and drives straight to Osaka Mental Hospital, where she hastily hands over her ‘charges’ warning the nurses that these 20 were particularly excitable. Excitable was and understatement and three days later the nurses realized what had happened. As for the real mental patients they all blended happily back into Lulu’s Japan… 1:7

How fitting that Nina Einstein is going to set up Japan the bomb. Never mind that Oppenheimer was the father of the American Bomb. At least she still has that table…

Well whatever happens there is supposedly a season 2. Personally I hope Cornelia decides on the correct military decision to evacuate and retreat rather than a last stand. Nevertheless this is Sunrise, the Sunrise that brought us so much soft core p0rn in this series. Given that Cornelia is a woman she can’t ever beat Lulu again. As for Lulu I am sure he is going to miracle his way out of this one with powers of omnipotence. I am sure that there is going to be some contrived tragedy somewhere along the way, but by the time this airs I think that it will all fall flat between the one-sided battle, the panty shots, and the groping.

Hopefully in the next season there will be enough people left to have an opposing side, but I am sure death in Code Geass is far from eternal. If not then I hope it season 2 will be nation building with Lulu. It could prove interesting in an Idi Amin sort of way. Lastly kudos if you can spot the references in the Lulu and Karen predictions.
