I got Code Geass on Bluray for Christmas so I'm rewatching it and I don't know if it's just because I already know the plot so I'm nitpicky or I just didn't notice before when huge bullshit stuck out in anime. But half an episode I'll just spend cringing and pointing out the crap they try to pull.

>There is literally no reason for Kallen to not know who Zero is ahead of time.
>Suzaku is an irrational tool that would never disagree with Zero if he didn't only see half of any situation they're in.
>Zero and the Black Knights are legitimate terrorists that try to justify killing innocents.
>The Empire is supposed to be the bad guys but The Emperor is the only one saying shit that makes sense.

It's not just this show too, it's every anime I try to watch.

Fate series:
>RUUUUUEEEEEE BBBRRRREEEEEAAAAKKKKAAAAHHHHH
>Kerry just doesn't assassinate the other masters before the war officially starts, even when he knows who they are
>Why doesn't Kirei summon EMIYA?

SAO:
>Literally everything that appears in this fucking shit pile

Eva:
>Why didn't Kaworu at any point just yell at Shinji what the problem with the two spears was?
>Why does Asuka want Shinji to listen to her and then relentlessly attack him?
>Why didn't WILLE just smash the Wundar into New-NERV HQ and just fire their lasers at everything?

I just can't have a suspension of disbelief anymore with half this shit. It feels like the writers just don't take any time to think everything through and write it off as whatever title's version of space magic is.

I nitpick and point out story flaws in anime without control.

what the fuck are you on about

tfw you just want to watch initial d 5th stage but the subs are fucking awful

Dude, he would win the war.

Why the fuck would Kerry summon EMYIA?

He doesn't have Excalibur, he has the scabbard.

Is there an in-universe rule stating there's only one possible catalyst to a spirit? And was the scabbard ever removed from Shirou throughout his journey becoming Archer?

So how does he know about EMIYA and have the proper catalyst to summon him and not Saber, keeping in mind that Saber is bound to appear in every grail war following her wish until she obtains the grail, so of course given Excalibur he would summon Saber and not her next master's future self.

And really, the scabbard, while implanted in Shiro's body, always belonged to Arturia. That was her catalist.
Rin only even summoned EMIYA by chance because she attempted a summoning without a clear cut catalyst. Had Rin actually had a proper catalyst for any other servant, EMYIA never would have appeared in the 5th Holy Grail war.

So why didn't her father leave her a note to use his old catalyst and summon another Gilgamesh?

His instructions were for if he lost the war. Why would he give his daughter the servant he lost with?

Also, Gil currently lives outside of the natural rules of the game, seeing as he was a living being for those ten years and didn't disappear back in to the void like Saber at the end of the 4th war.

Code Geass was always shit. You're just now realizing it.

The basic story is still pretty good. It's just the shitty characters like Nina and the entirety of the Black Knights.

Shut the fuck up

Make me.

The Britannians are the only good characters in the show. The Chinese are fucking Socialist dumbasses, and the Japanese are pathetic losers living in their fantasies "MUH PROUD ISLAND NATION! WE AIN'T NO NUMBAH!"

Meanwhile God Emperor Washington Hair tells the truth how it is. People are not equal and that evolution will weed out the shit stains of society.

the britania people aren't any better

nor are the chinese

nor are the people who have no fucking idea how to play chess

I actually preferred the second season over the first.

Mao was literally the worst fucking thing in both seasons, and season 2 had significantly less Nina (plus her fucking gold mine reaction face to Zero being alive). Seasons 1's battles also felt like nothing but a bunch of happenings and antics going on for no real reason.

Yeah I enjoyed it while watching, but I'm inclined to agree. The first season was acceptable because the plot wasn't too bad, but the 2nd season just went batshit crazy with so many things and I didn't like it.

I think the only thing I enjoyed in the end was the mom with the DSL's, and the relationship between the brown chick and Ougi.
