[Spoilers] Code Geass: Rozé of the Recapture Episode 3

Seeing this episode was peak Code Geass for me. The mixture of seeing Rozes everyday life and having Ash fall in love with the Girl pretending to be his brother and who wants to kill him to avenge her father. Is easily my favorite type of melodrama but on the flip side this episode also has my least favorite type of melodrama killing characters that had a short screen time and had the potential to be interesting. The killing off of the young emperor felt more like a way to end the ante. I could have easily seen him being used in other ways than just killing him off. They at least could have waited three episodes to have him killed. This does make me a little bit more nervous than this show is only 12 episodes long. I think if it had more room to breathe by having more episodes the story would greatly benefit from it.
