Code Geass R2 Episode 11-18

This series has been such a rollercoaster ride, but one that really keeps me at the edge of my seat and never fails to impress. The Chinese Federation arc was solved after episode 11 and then we had one fun episode where Lelouch and Shirley bonded. However, things did not turn out so well when episode 13 came and Lelouch lost yet another loved one. I was near bawling my head off watching episode 13, it just made me so sad. Following episode 13 in the next few episodes we also have a massacre of Geass users, Charles proving that he's a psychopath, C.C. finally addressing the details of her contract with Lelouch, lots of defecting over to opposite sides and tons of betrayal issues, homoerotic jealousy issues, reckless bombing issues, Suzaku nearly becoming a total ass issue, and lots of pretty messed-up, emo-rific stuff. Just when I thought things were starting to become a bit boring and annoying, episode 18 really changed my mind. It was the most epic episode I've seen in the season to date. I was so impressed that I remembered why I loved this series so much. It really is a good story and I really can't wait to learn more about everything.
