Discussion: Rolo, Rollo or as you wish to write it XD

[rkylo]

Ok so thanks to my frikin job I just watched Turn 13 CG R2 yesterday, and I'm still very impressed of it. That's why I decided to discuss over this frikky dikky character called Rolo ;3

So yes, he did it and I don't know if I want to thank him or if I should curse him XD Actually I didn't like Shirley at all, but I never thought it would go that far

I loved Shirley, she gave the show a sense of normality, and brought that reality back to Lulu, now I can see him going fully into Zero mode, like he did towards the end of season 1.

After getting over the shock of what he did, I love Rollo again too... He needs love, being the starving orphan he obviously must have been at first. He has threatened Lulu before, and Lelouch knows Rollo'll be dangerous if he sees his newfound security threatened

Just like you I have a neutral feeling with Shirley. But her death being caused by Rollo is indeed surprising for me. I don't kinda expect him to kill her but...

even though he did it, I still love Rollo! I am saying this a lot of times already but if in any way I can help Rollo keep the secret of him killing Shirley then I would really help him...

OOhh..I am such a biased when Rollo is being talked about x_X

[rkylo]

Well I still love Rolo too, he's sweet for me, plus I feel sad because of his situation D:

[xtine06]

Aww..meeeee toooooo :) Rollo sure is love <3

Ah! A discussion about my favorite character in Geass.

I agree with you in thinking that Rolo isn't in love with Lelouch, he's just in love with the idea of having a family, someone who cares for him, and a normal lifestyle. It's not hard to understand why he has an abnormal desire to be wanted; Rolo doesn't have any parents, and he's spent his entire life manipulating people and then killing them.

He doesn't know what a life is or what love is. He's starved for affection, and it isn't a far fetch to think that Rolo could harbor feeling for Lelouch that aren't strictly of a brotherly nature, but most likely only because he doesn't understand how to show the emotions that he has for Lelouch

[demyx]

You pretty much said what I wanted to say but was too lazy to type up. HAHAHA.

I actually believe that Rolo does doubt Lelouch. If he really, truly trusted Lelouch, he wouldn't have had the need to do what he did in episode 7, or repeatedly ask Lelouch if he'd keep his promise in episode 8. I think he's lightened up a little since then, but then he went and killed Shirley on the grounds that she remembered. I believe she even told Rolo that she wanted to help them, but as soon as she said Nunnally's name... I think he perceived Shirley as a threat to his way of life that he wanted to protect and he took care of it the only way he knew how. It's really depressing, because I know that wasn't Shirley's intention at all.

Hence why I feel even more sorry for him. Lelouch was definitely planning to off him either way, maybe Sunrise just made him kill Shirley so Lelouch is more justified in doing so. /conspiracy theory

[clones]

I will be very sad if they kill off Rolo. When, probably being the better word; I'll probably hate Lelouch for a little while afterward too, which is weird because he's one of my favorites. ;_;

This discussion depresses me. Yet, I'm still all for your conspiracy theory.

[rkylo]

I won't ever be able to hate Lulu because he's my favorite character, but if he indeed killed Rolo I would be somehow sad D:

I love little Rolo boy

[darksage29]

She had it coming... She said the N word.

[hopelessly_kim]

lol, i have no idea why i thought that way so funny.

but really i felt bad she died :\

[faye_naruse]

LOL XD

[wqwz]

OMG...lol...never thought of it that way....thats really bad...DX

[vicks111]

Nunnally and everything surrounding her is a threat to Rolo's "Family", and thus he will destroy it. Shirley was ok for me, but I didn't like her as a pairing for Lelouch. It always bugged me. However, she didn't deserve to die the way she did, she needed a bit more time with Lulu.
The thing is, does Lelouch love her like that? He jumped off a building for her...and he WILL get revenge at the order. He rebels because he cares XD

As for Rolo, I like him for BEING mentally unstable. And he is a badass when he goes on a killing rampage. But I get the feeling he'll die at the end just after discovering Lelouch is his real brother and Nunnally is his twin sister XD most likely after he goes Crazy!berserk for knowing Lelouch was just using him. Yes, this is one character that I love because he suffers and will probably not get a happy ending XD

[clones]

after discovering Lelouch is his real brother and Nunnally is his twin sister

just as planned
