This is really sad. It's like for a moment there you have some good character development, and then BAM! the characters don't remember anything (well except for the mc).
I really hope they'll remember all those memories in the end, otherwise I won't be able to smile once I finish watching this :(

Ahahahaha, Kurisu made it mad awkward by yelling that out loud.

Whoa, everyone Rintarou is trying to reverse is displaying signs of having Reading Steiner.

Gah...another depressing and sad ending. And again Rintarou mutters, "I'll never forget." Everyone else forgets and Rintarou suffers alone. Ouch...

Now this is just turning into the typical harem with the most annoying girls.
Nice episode, nevertheless.
It's hilarious to imagine the mad scientist suddenly surrounded by lady admirers.

For a moment there I thought: "OMG, it looks like a harem route just open for Okabe!"

Rukako's date with Okabe was pretty nice, especially their last date at the shrine. And Rukako also somehow regains his/her memory from the other world line, just like Feyris. Well, I know I'm gonna miss Rukako as a girl.

Why not just send a D-mail to Rukako a year ago telling her not to clean the storehouse? Seems pretty simple to me, but I suppose they aren't supposed to get the rewards of time travel without the drawbacks.

Not my favorite, but alright. TBH, I don't really like the direction that STEINS;GATE took. It went from a purely awesome and suspenseful mystery to a show with a clear objective; to save Mayuri. Some people may like that, but it's not my favorite.

When the endless death cycle for Mayuri was introduced, I thought it was brilliant. I felt that these episodes following it don't live up to the original concept.

One question I have: In all the D-mails, why would the person reading it actually adhere to what it says? It's a random message coming to you, and I don't understand why they would listen. In each D-mail, basically what was put in the message happened. It's somewhat unreasonable in that respect.

Nonetheless, great show.

This episode was really nice.
I guess when he reverse all the D-mails, it will happen again and again, I mean maybe the final episode will just be like the first. And I think also if he wants to save Tutturuu he has to let Kurisu die...because that was the first D-mail...!?
But I really do hope for a Okarin x Kurisu ending!

the messages came to the person themselves didnt it? except for our trap. so you would probably listen to youself....most of the time.....unless your drunk.

I wish that they'd spend more time on CERN instead of trying to save Mayuri. I was hoping that they'd save her within a few episodes, but it looks like it's going to take up a lot of the series with the current pacing. Kind of like...

edit: Oh, no Shining Finger's D-mail is next! but still, I think I just predicted something awful.
I am afraid shit might hit the fans next episode, well whomever is a fan of Moeka. I shall just orgasmically enjoy Moeka's shit for all the shit in my mind she did to Mayuri.

Once again, Moeka you shit bitch!


I agree that some serious shit is going to fly slow motion and hit the fan and then explode and then Okabe wil lbe all like "FUUUUUUUUUUUUU-" I've never been so pumped to see the next episode for an anime!! Moeka, you shit bitch, let's see just exactly why you keep killing Mayuri and why you are such a shit bitch!!!!!!111!!1>:(!11ONE!!1!1!!


I agree, I've really come to hate Moeka!! Selfish bitch keeps killing Mayuri, if it wasn't for her Mayuri's life probably wouldn't be stuck in the death loop.

Now then, considering he’s undoing the D-mails, shouldn’t the divergence number actually be going down rather than increasing?

He really didn't have to change her back into a guy. How about sending a D-Mail to Rukako to be cautions while cleaning the warehouse so she doesn't break it while cleaning? I really wished Okabe would have thought of that option instead. . . ;_;

He did think of that. But he didn't want to risk getting into situation where he has no way to save Mayuri.

Fuck I cried during the ending theme. Fuck the universe, why did it have to end like this, poor Rukkako........

EDIT:

Blind_Guardian said:
I do agree that it seemed pointless to undo Rukako's D-mail, since it still won't get the IBN back. Should've gone straight to Moeka.

I wonder if Okabe's open-minded enough to be in a gay relationship with Ruka? Kinda a mood point since it seems like fem-Ruka's romantic feelings weren't reflected in male-Ruka, turning into respect instead. That or Ruka just isn't willing to admit his crush as a guy.

5/5


This.
I hope he was faking his feelings, as otherwise that would mean he didn't keep his memories... ;-(

THE VOICE ACTORS ARE AMAZING. OKAY. They added a lot of feeling into it.

Half of this episode was pretty funny mostly because of Daru and Kurisu chasing the awkward couple. ^^

A nice and really fun change of pace/breather (Loved Okabe and Kurisu's prep ^^). Now I'm revamped all over again for the serious events leading up to the finale. This was a smart move.

So they all will retain their memories it seems, this should be interesting. Next up.... Moeka.

A lovely and touching episode. It seems as though whatever Okabe does affects the memories of the people in his orbit, and they find it hard to part with their memories when Okabe lets them know why he is there at that moment in time.

although it had humorous undertones, this episode was actually really sad for me, i hadnt realized that ruka had those feelings for him. if only there was another way, but because kurisu is a tsundare, okarin and her are meant to be together.
