History YMMV / CodeGeassThePreparedRebellion

* ArcFatigue: A trait shared by many of [=SeerKing=]'s works, this fic takes ''forever'' to update, and when it does, the developments are rather slow moving. Complicating matters is [=SeerKing=]'s erratic writing "schedule"[[labelnote:*]]To elaborate, its closer to a To-Do List than a schedule, stating which stories he'll work on updating before moving on to the next one, starting again after finishing it.[[/labelnote]]. While this fic is the ''first'' in the schedule,[[labelnote:*]]The full "schedule" as of March 2021 is as follows: This fic, Fanfic/ZeroNoTsukaimaSaitoTheOnmyoji, Fanfic/WormJusticeForAll, Fanfic/CampioneOfTheRagingTides, Fanfic/AshikabiOfThunderAndLightning, Fanfic/PainAndHatredAStrayDevilsTale, Fanfic/UzumakiNarukoToTheVictorTheSpoilsV2, Fanfic/NarutoTheGameOfLife, Fanfic/{{Swordsaint}}, Fanfic/KaiensFateAizensExperimentAndIchigosSister, Fanfic/WormWaterworks, and lastly, Fanfic/IsseiTheGamingGear.[[/labelnote]] it still requires waiting for them to completely cycle back around before any chance at another update, outside of the rare Interlude chapters. This long wait sometimes causes chapters to only come out ''twice'' a year, if that, and can make waiting for the plot to progress a chore.

* WhatAnIdiot: A member of the JLF pretty much says this about Nina's parents for sending their xenophobic daughter to a conquered land with a higher than average rebel count.

* AlternativeCharacterInterpretation: As of Chapter 32, there's the impression the [[spoiler:Milly Ashford]] is handling working alongside [[RebelLeader Zero]], [[BlueAndOrangeMorality C.C.]], and [[NinjaMaid Sayoko]] a little ''too'' well for someone who should lack their conditioning and experiences with violence. Said character even joined them when [[spoiler:raiding Code-R Tertiary Site]] despite knowing the mission was explicitly a ''purge'' -- of a building full of {{Asshole Victim}}s, but still -- if not during the mission itself, then most certainly afterwards. One possible explanation is that [[spoiler:Milly simply is ''not'' handling herself as well as she shows to the others, but feels that she has to tough herself up, or at least fake it the best she can, if she's to remain at Lelouch's side in a meaningful manner just like C.C. and Sayoko. Considering that Lelouch went out of his way to get her non-lethal ammunition, and C.C. didn't leave her side during the bulk of the mission, it's possible that they're aware of Milly's struggle but decided to let her find her boundaries herself in an effort to avoid patronizing her.]]
** The following chapter confirms she was putting up a facade and threw up the moment she got home, but is determined to remain by Lelouch's side.

* NightmareFuel:
** C.C.'s description of the numerous ways Clovis killed her during her time in his captivity. And [[ImmortalityHurts she had to experience all the resulting pain]].
** Desmond's Geass gives him the ability to alter the state of consciousness of everybody within an area he designates. This makes it very difficult to defend against his assassinations, since he can put his targets and everybody around them to sleep, then [[SlainInTheirSleep do what he came to do]].
** C.C.'s threat to [[spoiler:Desmond]] in Chapter 44 is pretty scary, even if her target is a scumbag. The fact that she makes it while using a whimsical tone -- despite the coldly murderous air coming off her -- ''really'' doesn't help. Even Milly, who's on her side and has every reason to hate the target of the threat, is noticeably unnerved.
-->'''C.C.''': Now, here's the thing, ''boy''. I have been alive for '''seven''' centuries. ''Seven hundred years''. No, I did not stutter there. In that time I have been both tortured and torturer and I know ''exactly'' how to ''break'' arrogant little peons like you; in fact it was a favourite hobby of mine for a decade or two before it started getting old. Your choice is to either undo the effect of your Geass, and earn a quick, painless death, or you can be obdurate, in which case I will take my time slowly breaking you and turning you into a ''bleeding'', whimpering, ''mewling'' lump of bleeding, ''crippled'' flesh that I will not ''permit'' to die until I am satisfied that you know what pain and suffering ''really'' is.
** It's made clear that a Geass user suffering from PowerIncontinence can be downright horrifying. One example is the Baroness of Gold Peak, who went insane when someone mowed the lawn and she wasn't able to turn off her plant empathy Geass. Another is Agent Sabenock, whose memory absorption Geass evolved into a Ward-type Geass, causing her to crack when she absorbed the memories of too many immoral people. She murdered several other Directorate personnel before finally being killed herself.

** Speaking of Suzaku, as always, there's serious breakage regarding him. Just how justified is the in-story treatment of him? Does it go too far into cruelty, or is nothing he doesn't deserve in and out of story? His treatment is entirely based on how the reader feels about him as a character. If they sympathize with him, they more often feel the former. If they dislike him, they often feel the latter.

* HilariousInHindsight: In the second part of the film remake of the first two seasons of the Anime/CodeGeass anime, Jeremiah states that he would've gladly joined Lelouch's side from the beginning had he just told him his real identity. This exact development takes place in Chapter 7 of ''Prepared Rebellion'', which was published (in its second version) two and a half years prior to the film's theatrical release.

* WhatAnIdiot: A member of the JLF pretty much says this about Nina's parents for sending their xenophobic daughter to a conquered land with a higher than average rebel count.

* BrokenBase: As always in Code Geass, there's plenty of contention to go around.
