Shirley Fenette


"Voiced by: Fumiko Orikasa (Japanese), Amy Kincaid (English)"

""Love is power!""

Shirley Fenette is one of Lelouch's classmates at Ashford Academy.

Beautiful, exceptionally kind, and utterly devoted to her friends -- even those (* cough* * Milly* * cough* ) who repeatedly humiliate her -- Shirley is named for Anne Shirley from Anne of Green Gables, and her character design is based on the anime version.

Shirley gets top grades in school and participates both on the swim team and on the Absurdly Powerful Student Council, but she still finds plenty of time to pine and fret over her "Lulu" and his antics, real and imagined. She has been in love with Lelouch since their first arrival at Ashford Academy, but even after so many years she still finds it difficult to get (much less keep) his attention. She has a hilarious habit of jumping to conclusions before people can explain things to her, particularly where Lelouch is concerned.

Defying the widespread prejudice against people of Japanese descent, Shirley is the first student at Ashford to try to befriend Suzaku. (Leaving aside Lelouch and Nunnally, who, secretly, already knew him from years before.) As the series begins, despite all the anxiety her crush on Lelouch causes her -- and the daily humiliations her friend Milly Ashford heaps on her -- she still manages to be remarkably chipper most of the time.

Some day, of course, she'll win Lelouch's heart, and then his hand in marriage -- but in the meantime, fate, luck, and Lelouch himself have a few surprises in store for her.

Shirley embodies these tropes:


 * Absurdly Powerful Student Council: Where she spends a lot of her free time.
 * All Girls Want Bad Boys: She says in the Cupid's Day episode that it's her duty to reform Lelouch because he's "a failure as a person".
 * Affectionate Nickname: As far as she is concerned, Lelouch is "Lulu".
 * Anguished Declaration of Love: A few times over.
 * Big Eyes Little Eyes: Huge eyes -- the largest of any (speaking) character in all of Code Geass. Underscores her status as a Wide Eyed Idealist, Naive Everygirl, The Ingenue, and The Messiah.
 * Break the Cutie: Possibly the purest example in all of Code Geass -- which is saying something.
 * Butt Monkey: First, for comedic purposes. Then, for intense drama.
 * Cannot Spit It Out: Her feelings toward Lelouch. Although in a few instances, she kinda did mostly spit it out -- but he wasn't listening.
 * Clingy Jealous Girl: Too sweet a character to entirely fit this trope: she's more anxiously fretful than jealously clingy -- although she does get irked at Lelouch when he hangs up on her. (In his defense, he's usually hanging up on her because his life is in jeopardy at the time. Not that she'd have any way of knowing that.) Neverthless, she spends an extraordinary amount of her time and energy worrying about him, much of it specifically wondering if he likes some other girl more than her. In the aftermath of the Battle of Narita (which at the time strikes her as remote), her concern for Lelouch's whereabouts above all else is played for laughs -- until suddenly it so totally isn't.
 * Cute Clumsy Girl: A little clumsy. More than a little cute.
 * Daddy's Girl: From what we see, she and Joseph Fenette are on quite good terms.
 * Disappeared Dad:
 * The Ditz: In a way. Although Shirley is very book-smart and gets top marks in school, Milly Ashford loves to tease her that she can think of nothing beyond her feelings for Lelouch, when there's a whole wide world out there full of wonderful (and terrible) things. Most of the mockery is just Milly being Milly, but likely some is Milly's half-sublimated jealousy. Shirley's role as a Dojikko further contributes to her general ditzy feel.
 * Genius Ditz: possibly.
 * Dojikko
 * Even the Girls Want Her: The biggest victim of Milly's Skinship Grope.
 * Fake Memories: Part of the reason why she wants to help Lelouch once she regains her real ones.
 * Wistful Amnesia: Goes through this on more than one level; first, when she finds herself falling for Lelouch again after being geassed into forgetting her memories of him the first time, and second, after being geassed by the Emperor to forget Nunnally, when she finds herself folding origami cranes again, something Nunnally taught her.
 * Feminine Women Can Cook: Inverted Trope: She's very feminine and not much of a cook. However, she is only about eighteen years old -- and she's not attending finishing school but rather a preppy boarding school. Boarding school tends to provide both "room and board" (i.e., prepared meals).
 * Fiery Redhead: A mild example -- almost (but not quite) to the point of aversion. Quick to anger, even quicker to forgive. And apologize profusely. Over and over.
 * First Kiss: She's kissed Lelouch twice.
 * Fix Fic:
 * Foil: She has no shortage of foils -- for a few examples, see Tomboy and Girly Girl, below. But there's an interesting Foil whom she barely even meets: Princess Euphemia, who not only has a strikingly similar personality but also has many analogous plot points. In many ways she is set up to be for "Lulu" what Euphemia is for Suzaku. (Lucky her.)
 * Forgiveness: Definitely her greatest virtue. Forgives Lelouch for his responsibility in her father's death.
 * From Bad to Worse: Several times.
 * Genki Girl: Starts as one. (Then it got worse.) Reverts to one. (Then it got even more worse.) Rinse, repeat.
 * Good Eyes, Evil Eyes: Beautiful, clear, open Green Eyes. See also Big Eyes Little Eyes, above.
 * Heroes Want Redheads: Or perhaps heroes can't decide if they really want redheads or if they'd rather just change the world, but if they ever do make up their minds.
 * The Ingenue: Tied with Princess Euphemia as the most clear-cut example in the series. See also Naive Everygirl and Wide Eyed Idealist, below.
 * Innocent Fanservice Girl: While C.C., Kallen, and Milly flaunt their assets a lot more. Many enjoyed anytime she appeared in her swimsuit.
 * Joshikousei
 * Lethal Chef
 * Love Martyr: For Lelouch. To ever more ridiculous degrees. At first it's really funny. Then it's really not funny.
 * Meaningful Name: Shirley Fenette -- named for the beloved, red-headed and spunky Anne Shirley (Anne of Green Gables).
 * The Messiah: Along with Nunnally and Euphemia, one of the three sweetest characters in the whole series. Shirley's the first Britannian student to approach Suzaku at Ashford, where discrimination against Japanese is commonplace. She's very devoted to her friends, and was even willing to use a gun for the first time to protect Lelouch.
 * Not to mention,
 * She even makes a speech about The Power of Love when Lelouch contacts her from the Chinese Federation.
 * Mind Rape: Mao does this to Shirley to get her to kill Lelouch.
 * My God, What Have I Done?:
 * Naive Everygirl: Possible deconstruction
 * Name's the Same: Even if her name is very similar, she's not the heroine of Tales of Legendia.
 * Nice Girl
 * Not What It Looks Like: She keeps catching Lelouch acting in a way that looks suspicious, with various girls -- usually Kallen.
 * The Ojou: Sorta. Sweeter and more open-hearted than the trope would suggest.
 * Ordinary High School Student:
 * Passionate Sports Girl: She's the star of Ashford's swimming team.
 * The Power of Love: See The Messiah, above.
 * By the way, the quote at the top of the page has essentially become the slogan of her biggest fans.
 * Puppy Dog Eyes: Heavens.
 * Rapunzel Hair
 * Skinship Grope: The victim of them, from Milly.
 * Spoiled Sweet
 * (At least from her point of view. Lelouch's is debatable.) Note, for example, her song "Masquerade" (i.e. "You're My Destiny"). For extra irony points, further note that this is the music playing on the soundtrack when Lelouch
 * Do note that he did it in hopes of keeping her out of danger.
 * Tareme Eyes
 * Tomboy and Girly Girl: Shirley (like Euphemia) is close to the extreme end of the girly girl scale.
 * Trauma Conga Line: It was bad enough when Lelouch kept having to hang up on her, forgetting to call her back, standing her up, not noticing when she tried to confess her feelings for him, vanishing without explanation, vanishing without explanation at the same time a cute female classmate was also vanishing without explanation ... then there was the Battle of Narita. It Got Worse. And worse. And worse.
 * Unlucky Childhood Friend: Shirley didn't meet Lelouch until they were teenagers but otherwise fits the trope well.
 * Wide Eyed Idealist: A unique example in the series: Shirley loves everyone and just wants them to get along -- yet she also shows a willful -- indeed, blind -- lack of interest in politics or current events. (Perhaps Truth in Television for someone her age, but in a series where some of her (underage) classmates are members of the army and others are terrorist masterminds, and the rest have at least chosen sides, it sets her apart.) Shirley is also literally a wide-eyed idealist: she has the largest eyes (and irises) of any major character in all of Code Geass. (Princess Euphemia, another Wide Eyed Idealist, seems to be in second place. See Big Eyes Little Eyes, above.) At any rate, her combination of sweet, friendly, openness with her lack of interest in the larger world gets her lovingly but ferociously mocked by her friend and resident (figurative) Cool Big Sis Milly Ashford. (See also The Ditz, above.) If only the problems with this stopped right there...
 * Wrong Genre Savvy: ...which they don't. Tragically, she was stuck in one of the farthest things from shoujo, making her idealism contrast all the more, . Just two episodes after her proclamation of The Power of Love, and right after she seemingly consummates her one true love, . All the more tragically ironic in that said power also had just earlier inspired Lelouch as Zero to make his inspiring speech about the Power of Passion after he and the Black Knights liberated China, and may have also saved Lelouch from falling into madness,.

Milly Ashford


"Voiced by: Sayaka Ohara (Japanese), Julie Ann Taylor (English)"

""We need festivals now and again, no matter what situation we're in.""

The student council president at Ashford Academy, Milly is a cheerful and strong-willed young woman as well as the granddaughter of the owner of the school. (Hence Ashford Academy.) She loves playfully tormenting her friends, supporting them when they need it, ferreting out their secrets, keeping those secrets safe, and looking sexy and self-assured all around.

Milly Ashford embodies these tropes:


 * Absolute Cleavage: Her dress at the banquet
 * Absurdly Powerful Student Council: Of which she is the president.
 * Arranged Marriage: To Earl Lloyd Asplund.
 * The Beautiful Elite
 * Big Eyes Little Eyes: Not especially big eyes. This is not to indicate she's evil, though, but just that she's worldly-wise, a bit jaded, and no longer the Naive Everygirl she wishes she still were.
 * Blue Blood
 * Blue Eyes
 * Bunny Ears Lawyer.
 * Chivalrous Pervert: Despite her hobby of sizing up the assets of her female friends -- and very deliberately embarrassing them -- she cares deeply for all of them.
 * Cloudcuckoolander: With her wacky antics, almost as wacky costumes, and not so covert perversion.
 * Cool Big Sis: Coolest school president ever.
 * Cosplay Otaku Girl: Although, this being an alternate universe, cosplay in general seems to be an occidental rather than a Japanese practice.
 * Deadpan Snarker
 * Dirty Old Man: Shirley, among others, has accused her of acting like this.
 * Even the Girls Want Her: One of the girls at the school "outed" herself during the chase for Arthur the cat. (Over the school radio, Milly had offerred, to whoever succeed in capturing the cat and bringing it to her, a kiss from whichever member of the Absurdly Powerful Student Council the victor wanted.)
 * Everyone Loves Blondes
 * On a side note, she's one of the surprisingly few blonde characters in the series, given it's anime and so many of the characters are of European descent.
 * Fallen Princess: Not literally a princess, but an aristocrat whose family used to have close ties to the royal family.
 * Fan Service
 * Form-Fitting Wardrobe
 * Genki Girl
 * Impossible Hourglass Figure
 * I Want My Beloved to Be Happy: even if she has a crush on Lelouch, she wants Shirley to get Lelouch during Cupid's Day. One can also wonder whether she made these comments about Shirley looking perfect naked because Lelouch was here.
 * Joshikousei
 * Manic Pixie Dream Girl
 * Ms. Fanservice: Deliberately plays the role.
 * Oblivious to Love: She is totally clueless about Rivalz' crush on her.
 * The Ojou
 * Otaku Surrogate
 * Plucky Girl
 * Secret Keeper: She is the only Ashford student other than Suzaku who knows Lelouch and Nunnally's parentage. For most of season 1, she is also.
 * She's Got Legs
 * Skinship Grope: Her most frequent victim, Shirley, is unamused.
 * Spoiled Sweet
 * Statuesque Stunner
 * Student Council President
 * Tall Blond And Bishoujo
 * Tomboy and Girly Girl:
 * Milly (tomboy) and Shirley (girly girl).
 * Milly (tomboy) and Nina (girly girl).
 * Milly (tomboy) and Kallen (in her Ill Girl guise) (girly girl).
 * Kallen (in her warrior guise) (tomboy) and Milly (girly girl).
 * Unlucky Childhood Friend: Unlike her fellow Unlucky Childhood Friend, Shirley, she doesn't let her life revolve around her feelings for Lelouch. But if Milly's a less straightforward example than Shirley, she's also a more literal example: she really has known Lelouch since childhood. (The Ashford family had an alliance with his mother Marianne.)
 * Unlucky Childhood Friend: Unlike her fellow Unlucky Childhood Friend, Shirley, she doesn't let her life revolve around her feelings for Lelouch. But if Milly's a less straightforward example than Shirley, she's also a more literal example: she really has known Lelouch since childhood. (The Ashford family had an alliance with his mother Marianne.)

Nina Einstein


"Voiced by: Saeko Chiba (Japanese), Kim Mai Guest (English)"

While not an especially important character early in the series, Nina does garner certain amount of attention from Code Geass watchers. Mostly hatred. A pathologically shy student at the Ashford Academy whose family is involved in the war industry, Nina is one of the more openly racist Britannians on the show (which apparently comes from being left behind in a Japanese ghetto all alone as a kid and ending up traumatised by what she witnessed there), and is willing to throw out racial insults to men with guns. She is obsessed with Princess Euphemia li Britannia, to the point of masturbating using a table to pictures of her. Poor Table-kun. On the bright side, her scientific and engineering skills are almost a match for Lelouch's planning.

Whilst Nina never was emotionally stable at the best of times, she really snaps after the, and goes on to. After the Time Skip she is shown to be working on replicating her

--

Nina embodies these tropes:


 * Ambiguously Jewish: Her curly hair, her nerdy personality, and most of all her famous last name.
 * Attempted Rape: Invoked in the Hotel episode.
 * Bait and Switch Lesbians: You can make her fall for the male protagonist in the Playstation 2 Lost Colors game. Though it's important to remember that Lost Colors is not part of the established canon, so...
 * Bi the Way, only for that game?
 * The Beard: To Prince Schniezel.
 * Beautiful All Along: She looked much less dorky when R2 rolled in, pulling her hair up in a ponytail instead of braiding it and using a sexy uniform with heeled boots and a really short Magic Skirt. Her personality, however, doesn't change. If anything, she got even worse.
 * Brainy Brunette
 * Beware the Nice Ones
 * Caught With Your Pants Down: Or in her case, with her miniskirt up. Fortunately, the one who walked in was blind and too naive to notice.
 * Character Development: Let's just say that the Jumping Off the Slippery Slope and  entries sum it up.
 * A Date With Rosie Palms: Masturbates to pictures of Euphemia. Later goes insane,
 * Enemy Mine:
 * Expository Hairstyle Change: In R2. See also Beautiful All Along.
 * Fan Disservice: How many felt about the Cargo Ship-wreck.
 * Fan Nickname: 'Racist-tan', 'Table humper', etc.
 * Freak Out: Nina did not take  well. How bad was it? Compare her picture here with the Freak Out [[media:cit_code_geass_nina_freak_out.jpg|image]].
 * Gadgeteer Genius: Using just the contents of a school science lab, she managed to build the world's first . At least in theory. She wasn't sure if it would work, though..
 * Generic Cuteness: Not really ugly, but not beautiful either.
 * The Glasses Gotta Go: Subverted. Milly says in the Picture Dramas that she's often tried to talk Nina into ditching her glasses, but she keeps refusing.
 * Go Mad From the Revelation: After . Almost happens again when
 * Heterosexual Life Partners: With Milly Ashford. Then again, Milly likes groping Shirley, and as for Nina ... . Maybe not so heterosexual.
 * Hot Scientist: In R2, with some of the outfits and hairstyles she wears, she looks * really, really* good! See Beautiful All Along, above.
 * Joshikousei
 * Jumping Off the Slippery Slope: She took a huge leap from  to.
 * Karma Houdini:
 * Mad Scientist: Well, she managed to freak out Lloyd. Fortunately, it was temporary.
 * Manipulative Bitch: Not constantly, but she has a moment with Suzaku, pretty much forcing him to carry the F.L.E.I.J.A. warhead by guilt-tripping him with Euphemia's name. Considering how freaking psycho she is about Euphemia, it's actually pretty impressive that she could so calmly do such a thing.
 * Meaningful Name: Einstein.
 * Meganekko: Typical smart girl with Generic Cuteness and glasses.
 * My God, What Have I Done?:
 * Psycho Lesbian: Her feelings for Euphie, with a large helping of social awkwardness, make her look like a Stalker With a Crush at times.
 * Purple Eyes
 * The Quisling:
 * Roaring Rampage of Revenge: "Vengeance for !"
 * She Cleans Up Nicely: Subverted. Fancy dresses and balls only make her even more diffident.
 * Shrinking Violet: Very shy and withdrawn -- except during her bout of insanity.
 * Stalker With a Crush
 * Teen Genius
 * There Are No Therapists: Grievance counseling? In my Britannia?
 * Tomboy and Girly Girl: Nina is not all that tomboyish -- not compared with, say, Kallen (when the later is not playing at the Ill Girl) or even the more energetic Milly -- nevertheless: Nina (tomboy) and Euphemia (girly girl); Nina (tomboy) and Nunnally (girly girl); Nina (tomboy) and Shirley (girly girl).
 * Too Dumb to Live : With the distinction of being a teen genius who's too dumb to live.
 * TV Genius: Persons with uncommonly high IQs are often depicted in media as being extremely Not Good With People, if not downright out of reality. That explains why Nina is so dissociated of the real world that
 * Yandere: Why nuclear weapons and Emotional High School Girls should not mix. Though she never turns her violent side on the object of her affection or rivals. Only  Even then, she's able to
 * Zettai Ryouiki: Grade B.

Sayoko Shinozaki


"Voiced by: Satomi Arai (Japanese), Kim Mai Guest (English)"

""I serve both Zero and master Lelouch.""

A Japanese maid -- twenty-four years old in season one and twenty-five in season two -- Sayoko is employed by the Ashford family, assigned as the caretaker for Lelouch and Nunnally when they get into Ashford Academy. Quirky, devoted, sweet and highly protective of the Lamperouge siblings, she's the closest to a mother figure that they have after Marianne's horrible death.

Sayoko embodies these tropes:


 * Alliterative Name
 * Cloudcuckoolander: Her covert pervertedness, along with her ideas of male behavior (see: R2 11-12 and her diary entries), and also her general impersonation of Lelouch as she leads the student club members off his trail in R2 12.
 * Covert Pervert
 * Word of God says that in a contest between the two parties, the former would win. The only reason they didn't show it is that such a contest wouldn't really fit with the show.
 * Chekhov's Gunman / Chekhov's Boomerang: She's just the help, used by Lelouch to shake off his connection to Zero...but then she keeps coming back with surprises.
 * Latex Perfection: Shown to have facial moldings beneath the mask, but the disguise is perfect enough to convince Ashford student council members.
 * Meido
 * Parental Substitute: Especially to Nunnally.
 * Ship Tease: Fandom loves to interpret her scenes with  as this.
 * Stealth Hi Bye: To Milly in the Cupid's day episode.
 * Sure Why Not: Her being a
 * Zettai Ryouiki: In her
 * Meido
 * Parental Substitute: Especially to Nunnally.
 * Ship Tease: Fandom loves to interpret her scenes with  as this.
 * Stealth Hi Bye: To Milly in the Cupid's day episode.
 * Sure Why Not: Her being a
 * Zettai Ryouiki: In her
 * Zettai Ryouiki: In her

Rivalz Cardemonde


"Voiced by: Noriaki Sugiyama (Japanese), Brian Beacock (English)"

A member of the Student Council, and pretty much the only Ordinary High School Student there.


 * Bromantic Foil: To Lelouch.
 * Butt Monkey
 * Cool Bike: Rivalz' bike is actually cooler than its rider.
 * Hopeless Suitor: Towards Milly.
 * I Want My Beloved to Be Happy: Invoked by Rivalz during a school event, when he resolves to snatch Lelouch's hat and give it to Milly.
 * Non-Action Guy
 * Ordinary High School Student
 * He actually Lampshades this trope when the Black Knights are storming the school, and he attempts to stand up to them, saying "I want to do something cool."
 * And again in the very last episode, where he laments that his friends are out fighting for the fate of the world while he sits on his butt doing nothing.
 * Satellite Character: As noted with his Fan Nickname 'Air', which defines the poor guy's importance to the show in general.
 * Unlucky Everydude
 * Why Do You Keep Changing Jobs?
 * You Gotta Have Blue Hair
