Lol, I was so disappointed when I realized that wasn't really Lelouch there.

[whitelilies22]

It isn't?

[nobodyman9]

Nope, it's Sayoko. BTW, hate to break it to you, but this is kind of old news.

Why Sayoko-san? o_O Since it is something we can't see in the series, and there's nothing sure, that can be Lelouch too. u_ù

[rinhail]

Its really Sayoko? Damn, thats too bad. At least we get the illusion. And Rivalz? Haha! I love him.

[whitelilies22]

I guess, oh well. Yeh, I loved his expression there XD

I've heard the claims that this isn't Lelouch because it's too sparkly. It's funny how, when teaser pic of this came out, (where you couldn't see he was with Shirley) nobody was saying that. Also, notice how nobody says this very sparkly pic isn't really Lelouch. Hmm, it kinda makes me suspicious that the Sayoko theory comes from bitter Shirlouch haters/(Lelouch x Kallen lovers?)

[nobodyman9]

Hmm, nope sorry, I'm pretty sure it's Sayoko. As a Shirlulu I really didn't want to believe it at first either, and quite honestly I was quite peeved by it. But it's not just the sparkles (really, I don't get what the deal is with the sparkles) As I said in the post above Lelouch is acting too courteous, which Sayoko of making him seem when she was disguised as him. Also, you can tell by Rolo's reaction as he's getting annoyed by Sayoko's depiction of him, which also happened in the show. So yeah, sorry. I really wish it was Lelouch.

I can understand that. I just figured Rolo was annoyed because of his bro-con tendencies. I was also thinking of the episode during the "playing strangers" era where he told Nunnally he would try to be nicer towards Shirley. (Can't remember which episode it was, exactly. I wanna say either 18 or 20.) I'm perfectly willing to accept it being Sayoko, since it's true that she did go to extremes while impersonating him, but just to play devil's advocate, I think you could say Lelouch might be trying to honor that promise to his sister here.

Also, purely for the sake of argument, I came up a couple of other reasons for why it could possibly be Lelouch. But if I type them all here it would make for a unusually long comment. Should I make a new post in the community with an lj-cut for them? The issue isn't really that important to me, and I don't want to sound like some delusional fangirl who refuses to accept facts, but like I said before, I just enjoy playing devil's advocate every now and again.
