Snapping Chekov's Gun Clean in Half

Warning: Spoilers
A classic example of a plot twist not being good just because it happens, as well as how awfully rushed this story was. Monica and Dorothea's deaths (who were canonically not prejudiced!) could be seen as "the Snoke death" of anime. It utterly destroys any good characterization Suzaku had and reduces him to a seflish, moralless monster who will follow any order given to him, even if it conflicts with his previously established strong conscience. The fact that there are people who adore this idiot to the point of getting every collectible for him puts a disturbing side of the Code Geass fandom on full display. It's made quite clear a few episodes later that he is utterly unable to think for himself and doesn't care what he does as long as he is still following the one in charge. ("What about those who don't have a choice?" You just killed them, moron! Stop being so self-righteous!) He should have set his mind to saving ALL of his close associates--FRIENDS--instead of the one who I couldn't even remember existed. And REALLY, Suzaku??? You didn't think that Gino wouldn't hate you for the rest of your life after this??? What an idiot! Also, it is very important to note how ridiculous it is that the KotR were exclusively loyal to Charles when the previous holders of their positions were loyal to Britannia and the royal family itself--thus, they should have sided with Lelouch and gotten some actual development instead of being lazily killed off for shock value. Hold on, Monica and Dorothea. The steadily more jaded fandom can still save you somehow. As Monica would say, "Justice is given equally." Let it be so and may the Eleven roast for every selfish thing he has done.

Oh, and it turns out that Nunnally is alive because the ninja maid swept her away IN THE MIDDLE OF A NUCLEAR EXPLOSION!!!!! Yep, the writers just expected the audience to be stupid enough to accept every plot twist by this point.
