Reminder that Schneizel was right and Zero Requiem was retarded.

His plan was definitely more practical and realistic, much safer and more fullproof than Lelouch's idealistic anime keikaku. The problem is that what it would have achieved would have been fucking terrible and not worth the benefit of no more war.

It says a lot about the quality of this movie that this shot is the only thing people remember about it.

It was an unnecessary disappointment, get over it.

>The problem is that what it would have achieved would have been fucking terrible and not worth the benefit of no more war.
>nuclear deterrence? the horror!

It was unnecessary, but not a disappointment. If you want to know what disappointment looks like, watch the other spinoffs like Akito and NiW. If Resurrection had immiedately followed the anime after like a year or two, I would have been in agreement with a lot of the posters here about it. But it was the first remotely good thing to come from the franchise in 12 long years, and it doesn't deserve half the hate it gets here.

>the series is not complete without Lelouch x CC
Fucking shipfags.

True. Also to add in that it would have received far less hate if they had explicitly made Resurrection as direct sequel to the anime instead of the retarded recap movies whose changes ended up being completely irrelevant anyway. Poor Shirleyfags had her death retconned solely that she could get cucked by C.C. is pretty damn brutal

They did it in this way so Zero Requiem fags wouldn't be assblasted. Like we can see on Zig Forums it was pointless. They shouldn't even bother.

Akito wasn't anywhere near good but it had the decency to try and be original. Resurrection was nothing but bland out-of-character fanservice that fanboys willingly forgive because it pandered to their fantasies.

Kallenfag detected.
The rest of the movies sucked ass, resurrection was shit but it ended on a good note and sets up the series to continue from that point forward without CC and lelouch as the leads. It really could have done with another half hour of screen time to the cast’s reaction to him coming back, the party scene was dumb and Kallen didnt even speak to him. They should all still hate him, not just come right out and hand him a beer.

>out-of-character
Having Kallen and Suzaku job for the villains of the week was necessary for the plot to work and while retarded is standard for anime movie. Although the lack of screentime limiting interactions & making the movie rushed as fuck were among its worst flaws, only real OoC behavior came from Cornelia and maybe Ohgi if you squint. Suzaku regretting his emotionally driven actions is core part of his character in both seasons, C.C. rediscovering her humanity & thus acting on her emotions was laid out in R2 and so were actions Lulu took in the movie.

Resurrection had bunch of glaring flaws, but out of character-behavior certainly is not among them since they make perfect sense considering the events & character development in R2.

It's "first season was gr8 & tacticool before it went full retard in R2" all over again because speedwatchers glossed over the flaws of R1 (OH MY BRITANNIAN MEDICAL SCIENCE) and ignore the explanations R2 gave

The original ending is better thematically, but this one definitely feels more satisfying. I don't know if it makes the series complete though.

>I'm a shipfag so everyone else must be
Fucking shipfags.

>The original ending was the better one
The original ending was pretentious. It was certainly more stylish I admit but the logic behind the original ending was weak.
The new ending seems kind of bland but it makes more sense and ties up the series better.

Kind of obvious that the only people defending this shit fest are shipfags

Fucking this. Lelouch and CC are walking parodies of their original characters in the movie, and I'm not even touching shit like
>it makes more sense and ties up the series better
because fucking kek man. I'd call this guy a CCfag but anyone defending movie CC clearly doesn't even deserve the term.

Rent-free and I'm not even a shipperfag. CG is a terrible show to be a shipperfag.

Lets not start that debate again, its been over a decade.

I don't get why he didn't just fake his death in the og ending.

War isn't necessarily a bad thing. Peace and luxury rot the soul.

>everyone I don't like is a shipfag
Rent-free and full of copium

>Lelouch and CC are walking parodies of their original characters
You know what, let's be adults and discuss this. Give examples user, though i'm pretty sure R2 will have explanations for what you consider OoC

>complete
Lelouch and CCs relationship wasn't the thematical core to CG it was always Lelouch and Suzaku and the reason why the ending works is because tied so well with the show's theme and tone that it makes it worthwhile despite how shitty everything else but Ressurection doesn't, Lelouch plight isn't as detrimental because now he can do whatever he wants with no repercussions, him abandoning Nunnally makes no sense because the whole point of ZR was that Lelouch and Suzaku had to lose everything but now Suzaku essentially gets screwed over while Lelouch gets to go on adventures with his waifu. This fucking sucks.

Fucking this. CCfaggots are mentally ill. It was always about Lelouch and Suzaku doing the impossible when they get on the same page.

You know what, let's be actual adults and stop pretending this hasn't been discussed to death already. R2 never provided anything that would excuse their blotched characterization in the movie no matter what erroneous interpretation you keep trying to bring up.

>it was always Lelouch and Suzaku
Lulufags and shippers never got this even after ten years, so don't expect them to suddenly understand that Suzaku was not the antagonist and CC wasn't the second main character.

You’re right, the antagonist was always lelouch. The ending of season 1 and how much of a hateful bastard he was is proof enough. Suzaku was right and should have put a bullet in him.

It's not. Suzaku was just a good pilot. Lelouch was a lot more than him.

>Suzaku was just a good pilot
Try paying attention next time.

To say that the relationship between Lelouch and C.C. it wasn't important it's stupid, it's obvious that Suzaku was the deuteragonist, but C.C. was obviously the tritagonist, the anime literally ends with C.C. talking about Lelouch. Suzaku is not screwed either at the end of Resurrection, many people know his identity so he can talk to them normally and he got the opportunity to redeem the mistakes he made in the past, you say it is bad that Suzaku still has to be Zero, but you will ignore that there is nothing else for Suzaku besides being Zero, he can no longer live as Suzaku Kururugi. Besides the fact that Lelouch decides not to stay with Nunnally is completely in character, even in the first season Lelouch already planned to leave Suzaku with Nunnally as his knight, he never thought that he could be with Nunnally all the time, not to mention that he is not as if Lelouch and C.C. are gone forever, C.C. herself says that she will visit from time to time, and it is not like they are going on a vacation, they are going to look for the fragments of the Geass, which can end the peace and put Nunnally's life at risk if the wrong people get them

>You know what, let's be adults and discuss this. Give examples user, though i'm pretty sure R2 will have explanations for what you consider OoC
Their relationship was never romantic. It was deep, but purely platonic. Once their business was concluded, they'd part and never see one another again, and they'd be fine with it. It'd likely be C.C. disappearing one day without fanfare or a goodbye. They'd have fond memories of one another, but they wouldn't miss each other because both aren't going to belabor a relationship pass its logical end. They aren't going to chain themselves to each other. C.C. especially knows how to move on without angst (which she did in the original).

My head hurts just trying to read this. You very first sentence is already a huge extrapolation from what the other user said. Allow me to simply disagree with the rest.
