[Artbook] Code Geass Heroine Tribute

Let's face it. The best part about Code Geass R2 was the bishoujo cast. (I wouldn't make the same claim about Season 1 which I enjoyed a lot more.) Anya, Tianzi and the expanded role of Kaguya brought much joy to a certain soon to be arrested not to be named Zaku - his main consolation when the story bordered on ridiculous (Oooh, the Marianne bits - got to have some of what the SUNRISE folks were smoking.) Anyhow, here's THE definitive Code Geass bishoujo artbook that every right thinking CG fan should hug to sleep.

The artbook is mainly 2 divided into 2 segments. First the mundane. About 20 pages of character art complete with their various outfits in the anime. There's even 2 pages dedicated to the mecha appearing in the show.

Why I Want To Be Emperor

As Meister Sara Maya said to Kazu-kun: 'When you are Emperor, you can have your own harem!' It should have been obvious that Lelouch wasn't planning on sticking around when he didn't immediately conscript all the captured bishoujos into a harem led with C.C. wielding the whip as Chief Concubine. And he didn't even have a nekomimi Otome's objections to deal with either!

P.S. Seirei no Moribito was excellent.

Pre Trainwreck Shirley Disorder

(source) Having persuaded me to pick up Code Geass, it was not without some irony that Stripey lost his enthusiasm for R2 much earlier than me. It was particularly acute after the conclusion of Ep 13.

But, apparently, it seems that the gentle-souled tanuki is not the only one who's suffering from PTSD. The creator of the Code Geachu parody comic (also the one behind the hilarous A's/StrikerS Nano! parodies) recently announced he has decided to stop making his much-loved funny four panel comics; chief among the reasons was that what happened to Shirley saddened him so much that he's been unable to continue.

How widespread is PTSD among Code Geass viewers? Have anime fans experienced a comparable condition in other series?
