ANNOUNCEMENT

Ah. But according to the wiki, it was just Light using non-Death Note processes to manipulate him into doing so. So Light can get people to do stuff without using Death Note! He just leveled up in Magnificent Bastard!

Well, yeah, but I'll still be willing to bet that Light would beat Lelouch. Since criminals are dropping dead, there's a high likelihood of Lelouch being considered a criminal, as he's a terrorist leader. Lelouch would realize this, but there's really nothing he can do about it short of keeping his identity more sekret. Light doesn't display anything suspicious aside from personality traits, and even that is very minor. Lelouch would lose; he's not geared for games of psychological Dark Chess. (when you have a fog of war)

Actually, the most likely outcome of a crossover between Death Note and Code Geass universes is Light being killed off before he even gets the Death Note by rampaging Britannian forces. But that's not the fun option.

And yeah, Light definitely has a greater chance of winning, unless Lelouch is lucky enough to get close to him and able to use Geass.

You're all wrong. The correct answer is Dante, from Devil May Cry.

Hold on, didn't they give years in both of them?

2012, Britannia attacks. Lelouch pwns at 2017-2018. Light pwns at 2004-2010. So if he "won", Britannia wouldn't have attacked, cause they're all scared of Light decapitating Charles. (He's not immortal yet)

So Lelouch would never have gotten Geass, so Light wins by default.

However, assuming we shift so they are both in the same time frame, the Brittanians wouldn't kill random civilians too much, only the ones in the ghettos, which Light being the supa genius, would rather work from within the Britannians through sheer competence, and then destroy the more criminal of them. (Japan surrendered really quickly)

He'll still probably win though, for aforementioned reasons.

That 2017 is the Imperial Britannian calendar, not AD time. I can't remember the exact date, but I think 2017 in Geass is roughly the equivalent of the 1960s in our world. So Lelouch would have already won before Light is even born.

EDIT: Just checked, 2017 is 1962 by our calendar. Yeah, they have giant robots in the 60s.

And even if we combine the timelines, even though Light is a genius, he's still Japanese. And Britannia has super-Nazi racial policies, so he'd end up living in the ghetto anyways. Considering Light's Japanese, he'd more likely work with Lelouch against the Britannians, as he'd be fighting for his freedom.

Wait, so what happened to shift the calender by 55 years? (And then both would have fundamentally different timelines. Lelouch would have to kill Light's Dad to win (Scorcio or something, too lazy to look it up) and he's just a minor policeman, not involved in anything really.

Suzaku and those other Japanese serving in the Britannian military (like the guy who tried to assassinate Suzaku). Don't say he was special privileged, cause he pretty much followed orders and crap, and was supa competent and gave them no excuse to not give him promotions and crap.

Even if they are racist, they won't surrender genius simply because of race. They didn't kick Suzaku out for being involved with the Zero/Orange incident; they only tried to do that to get a scapegoat for the Clovis assassination.

Julius Caesar's invasion of Britain was repelled due to the tribes electing a leader, who established the Imperial Calendar (Which really should have messed with the timeline much, much more than it does in the series)
And I'm not worried about Lelouch killing Light's dad so much as Light's dad being killed by the massive robot battles/collapsing buildings/nuclear explosions that go on all over the place through the series.

But the only option open for the Japanese is through the Honorary Britannian program, which still entails lots of discrimination. Suzaku only gets the position he has because Lloyd needed someone to pilot the Lancelot, since Orange had gone off to fight, and he's too busy caring about SCIENCE to worry about things like race. And even after that, Suzaku is discriminated against, with Cornelia usually using him in near suicidal operations. Euphy makes him her Knight because she loves him, not because of ability (And I don't think we'd have Euphy falling in love with Light). Suzaku really only starts getting respect after becoming a Knight of the Rounds, as he outranks everyone else around him, even if he is Japanese.
Suzaku's ability to rise up in the Britannian structure is more because of luck, connection with the few non-psychotically-racist Britannians, and his willingness to backstab everyone around him after Euphy's death.
Even though Light is a supa genius, he would have to first become an Honorary Britannian, which would require swallowing his massive pride, and even then, he would face difficulty being recognized in spite of his talent.

Based of Light's sense of justice and creation of a perfect world, I think it's more likely he'd fight against the Britannians, and while him and Zero likely wouldn't be allies, they would still try to use each other to further their similar goals, while also trying to figure out the others identity so they can kill them once the royal family is taken care of.

Light/his dad doesn't live in Tokyo as far as I understand...

Hmm, I suppose. However, we don't have a very good representation of Light's view of wars really. All we know is that "They're bad". But after the fact, would he seek to overturn the result of a war, or would he establish any further war as being bad? For, if you would do the former, then there's all those Japanese feudal wars that need to be overturned, etc.

Cause really, it's only a matter of time until the conquered assimilate to the conquerors. (or vice versa in the case of Greece)

But Light'll kill whoever is unnecessarily violent in his perfect world, regardless of nationality. (That would be Zero. I think he'd probably support Suzaku more to be honest, you know, with the lack of terrorism and the generally not massively revolutionary actions.)

I still maintain that Dante would win. Just sayin'.

But wouldn't Lelouch just have to look at him/Light just have to write his name down for him to be beaten?

Big Boss IMO
