Yeah, well, that's the main problem I have with Code Geass, or other anime intended for teenagers in general. When I see teenage protagonists in an anime I want to see them behave like teenagers, not like adults (like Lelouch in Code Geass) or children. (like everyone in School Days)

The thing is about Code Geass, with Lelouch that is, that he has a very high IQ. So I accept that in him. High IQ people are too fucking smart.

It really would be weird if someone with high IQ is stupid....

Corrections in red.
Characters act like their age, assuming all the cast has a really, really low IQ and several mental illnesses.

Skip it and go to Gundam 08th Squad. Older characters, more realistic mecha and shorter series.

I think "moron" is a little too... forgiving. Borderline retarded sounds more appropriate to me.

Violence breeds violence, so 'inbred and developmentally stunted' works, yes?
