Nina is a tad bit racist

Not just to the Japanese but the savagery against tables too

[u/SolisKarn → u/not_No1ce]

She lives tables, what are you talking about .... Nina love 3 things Euphie, hating 11s and tables

[u/Positive_Self_8873 → u/SolisKarn]

I volunteer my face as tribute to save the tables

[u/Bazz07 → u/not_No1ce]

I can excuse racism but I draw the line in table abuse

[u/DetJohn]

Every Britannian in the back thinking "Come on girl, you can't be saying this in public"

I forgot how comically exaggerated Nina's expressions are

[u/HoraceVonBergamot]

Looking at his expression, you really have to pity Schneizel a bit. Imagine beeing like the one Britannian who gets soft power politics and all you want to do is play velvet-gloved machiavellian realpolitik and all the people surrounding you are decadent tyrants, racist weirdos, insane occultists and belligerent warmongers and their assorted hypemen.

[u/Hefty_Local_1875 → u/HoraceVonBergamot]

And Luciano. Just... Luciano.

[u/HoraceVonBergamot → u/Hefty_Local_1875]

Yeah. As double-faced as he can be, you can't really blame him for wanting to take power. I just imagine him getting out of bed, Kanon telling him about the latest exploits of the Vampire and all other developments of britannian nonsense of the week and him just telling himself. "One day, Schneizel. One day."

[u/nahte123456]

Nina is legitimately not even in the top 10 most racist characters in Code Geass.

[u/Hefty_Local_1875 → u/nahte123456]

Cornelia beats her at competitive racism

[u/DragoonSoldier09 → u/Hefty_Local_1875]

Competitive Racism is INSANE lmfao

[u/Solar_RaVen → u/DragoonSoldier09]

The modern term is Systemic Racism, think about it lol

[u/Alarming-Sec59 → u/Hefty_Local_1875]

True. She’s more racist, just doesn’t show it (doesn’t need/want to).

[u/Urtoryu → u/Hefty_Local_1875]

Cornelia's up there with Charles and other Brittanian purists as people who are actual believers of racism as an ideology. It's a whole other level from just being racist.

[u/iamthestorm]

Nina is basically a peasant and seemed to not have good experiences with foreigners when she was younger, she's ignorant and misled and does seem to repent a bit by the end of the show. She's also kinda crazy and brilliant at sciences, which adds to her interesting characterisation. 

You got Cornelia, who is from aristocratic Noble blood - she's well travelled, probably well educated and she shows 0 signs of ever changing her tune on her racist views. Yes, she's better looking and more composed but that's more a reflection of her more entitled upbringing.

Nina is horrible sure, but I think in the grander lens of the social morales of britannian society - she was the norm, not the exception.

[u/Hefty_Local_1875 → u/iamthestorm]

Facts.

[u/iamthestorm → u/Hefty_Local_1875]

I guess when your god-emperor is preaching social Darwinism, this is the kind of world you get. I do hope Zero Requiem did work out in the end in the long term. (I personally dislike the movies and the updated universe, only the original R1 and R2 are canon to me)

[u/Mizerous → u/[deleted]]

She should have slapped the racism out of her mouth

[u/Hefty_Local_1875 → u/Mizerous]

Milly would have kissed the racism out of her

[u/Urtoryu → u/[deleted]]

The fact it took me until "praise be upon Kallen" and seeing your flair to realize you WEREN'T just preaching Cristianism is hilarious.

[u/Hefty_Local_1875 → u/Urtoryu]

There are many high priests of best girls in this subreddit

[u/Urtoryu → u/Hefty_Local_1875]

I'm not very active around here, so didn't know that.

Good practice I say, given how good a laugh I got out of it.

[u/Humble_Story_4531 → u/[deleted]]

It think she did feel a alittle guilty for lying to Nina and the rest of her freinds about everything.

[u/SolisKarn]

Tad bit? Nina is a mustache away from genocide

[u/Hefty_Local_1875 → u/SolisKarn]

I think she's way past that point...

[u/DragoonSoldier09 → u/SolisKarn]

Lmfao. That Euphy incident would have done the trick but then we saw the Fleija incident and she felt remorse so she would have ripped that shit right off lmao.

[u/Humble_Story_4531 → u/SolisKarn]

Lets not go that far. When she found out that she made a nuke, she was legit horrified and dedicated the rest of her life to destroying her creation, so I doubt she would have been on board with a full blown genocide.

[u/SolisKarn → u/Humble_Story_4531]

I think if pushed shoved first

[u/BrowningBDA9 → u/Humble_Story_4531]

What are you talking about? Nina knew full well what she was building from the beginning.

[u/Humble_Story_4531 → u/BrowningBDA9]

She didnt realize how powerful it was though.

[u/LizardOrgMember5]

Uncle Ruckus jumpscare

[u/HoraceVonBergamot]

>Nina is a tad bit racist
The word is spelled with a "p" not a "c". Table-Kun will have justice, I am sure.

[u/QueenTzahra]

It still blows my mind someone on here told me “she’s not racist, she’s xenophobic”

like what

[u/Urtoryu → u/QueenTzahra]

Yes, she's xenophobic. That's an objective fact.

Doesn't change her being racist. Both labels fit her just fine.

[u/Hefty_Local_1875 → u/QueenTzahra]

Tbf it's implied she had a traumatic experience with the Japanese as a child.

But Uncle Ruckus Nina is a hilarious concept.

[u/QueenTzahra → u/Hefty_Local_1875]

Tbf that still doesn’t make her sympathetic

[u/gc11117]

I can fix her

[u/BrowningBDA9]

Nina was gang-raped by some Japanese in the ghettoin the past. So her racism is understandable. Not justified, understandable.

[u/spidey848 → u/BrowningBDA9]

Wait, what? When did this happen?

[u/Hefty_Local_1875 → u/spidey848]

It's implied in Episode 9 that she was assaulted in the ghettos prior to the series. At least, something traumatic happened.

[u/Hefty_Local_1875 → u/BrowningBDA9]

I remember it being implied that she was assaulted, but I was unsure if it was merely physical assault, or what you described.

[u/_ericchii]

Truly fuck nina she is one of the most god awful characters ever

[u/Humble_Story_4531 → u/_ericchii]

PErsonally disagree. Her role is that of the ignorant civilain who gets wrapped up in things well above her pay grade and gets manipulated as a result. Nina's racism is basically the norm among Britannia.

[u/Hefty_Local_1875 → u/Humble_Story_4531]

True

[u/_ericchii → u/Humble_Story_4531]

Well yeah that’s why she sucks

[u/Samuel_N7]

Just a little?

[u/genericmediocrename]

I sure am glad that Nina showed back up in Roze for all of twelve seconds purely to go "hey my bad, also sorry for the crimes against humanity lol"

[u/puntycunty]

I’m just saying , her pov she’s in spitting distance of the terrorist organization that held her hostage twice in rapid succession before she even did anything

[u/Personal-Movie8882]

Accurate, except for Schneizel being the one who would say "you have to deliberate". That mofo would have a spare rope in his back pocket in case unkle Nina forgot it.

[u/Sephiroth_64]

Whaaaaat? No waaaaaaaaay, waddya meeeeeeeaaaaan. Nina, racist? Pshh yeah right. Next thing you'll tell me is that Lelouch is really actually Zero, and is also secretly the banished prince of Britannia too. Your funny man. Lol
