So, were the robots supposed to be intimidating? Because I'm sure the police could've handled them just fine with batons much less missiles or some such.

With the amount of them? Batons would not do much against steal and hard shells.

I did not see the COPS having anything more than batons however EMP could have helped a lot.

Really good episode!
kona-chan is so cute.
Yashio finally looks like hero.


True.

Loved this episode, I really did. Kona-chan was incredibly cute this time, and the kiss scene was so sweet. And Yashio indeed finally seems like a worthy MC.
Currently watching everything that comes out to avoid missing something good...

And that's why Frau is amazing!

The perfect episode starring her and Kai. Loved the passion between the two. Laying down, on top of each other, Frau telling her story and that kiss. I couldn't have asked for more. Well done Kai for being a complete BOSS.

Kai and Frau actually look good together. She really needs him - I'm not sure if he really needs her though. But it was still great episode.

I couldn't stop laughing when the police came and then Aki and the little karate girl said there was a weirdo outside and it zoomed in on 4 eyes in his costume while being a weirdo. I need to get a gif of that.

Because police obviously have the right to totally destroy some really expensive robot. Like you said it's not like the robot went terminator and destroyed everything, I doubt the higher ups (which are probably also responsible for it happening to begin with) would have sent the order to destroy them before looking for the culprit (which they did).

If the robots are going berserk and are ATTACKING THE CAPITOL BUILDING then yes, they would definitely have the authority to blow the hell outta some robots, I don't care how expensive they are. I was wondering the whole time WHY DON'T YOU JUST SHOOT THEM until realizing most Japanese police probably don't have guns, but you'd think riot police would have them (or some kinda EMP at least). Ah well, it all worked out well and Frau gave our MC his first kiss. :) They are cute together and I hope they wind up together, tho I don't know if he'll wind up with anyone. They're both shut-ins after a fashion, since Kai spends all his time with his nose shoved in his tablet and Frau's a complete hikakamori.

5/5, next episode can't get here fast enough!

Woot. I'm digging this episode. That pervertedness of Frau can't helped me from grinning throughout the episode. I didn't expected that KISS. Hahaha. Though it seems Kai was already out by the time Frau kiss him. ^_^

Finally, the elements that made Steins;Gate great, such as a beautiful romance story and exciting race-against-the-clock style scenes are appearing. It took 13 episodes, but we finally got here, and I'm glad.

I didn't expect a kiss (details notwithstanding). On the one hand I got a lovely FrauxKai episode...on the other hand I still feel this ship will go down fast, by the mere fact that Akiho is the main female character. I'm okay with that pairing too, just don't make the Frau-thing simply vanish into thin air now that we have a nice buildup. 5/5 great episode.

This has to be one of the worst shows this season.

A computer genius hacker girl shut-in who coincidentally happens to be extremely attractive who also coincidentally happens to have made one of the most popular online games in Japan is in high-school and lives alone and makes sexual advances toward the main character who does nothing but show up and play video games to save Tokyo from evil robots?

Episode 13 (filled with hollywood level "computer magic") + 14 (see above) alone are worth about a 3-4 point drop in my rating.

Oh yes, this is going in the exact direction I hoped for - with Kona, that is. <3

The rest is still quite mediocre... things finally started happening and they solve it in one episode? Meh.

I didn't "make" a stupid sounding scenario. What I wrote is a realistic description of the circumstances surrounding Frau.

The fact that it sounds so ridiculous to the point that you thought I made it up only proves my point.

No, my point is that you can make anything sound stupid or intelligent as long as you have your way with words.
I could make Frau's life pass as a tragic heroine worthy of a Shakespeare piece and we both know it isn't anything deep like that. On the same way you can pretty much ridicule most scenario by simplifying elements, ignoring context and using a biased tone.

My tone was unbiased and completely neutral; I additionally didn't simply any elements (in the sense of leaving anything out important). It just sounds ridiculous because the actual show is ridiculous. You're grasping at straws for the sake of defending your psyche without proper preparation or an actual valid argument, because you're emotional in that you enjoyed something so (arguably) terrible.

You're free to enjoy it. I enjoy some bad things too; there's nothing guilty about enjoying bad things for entertainment, but don't chalk up this terribly written poorly conceived drivel to being a victim of "the way it's described".

Because Windows XP is best Windows.
Also 10/10 great episode.

Somewhat guessed that would be the case haha.
Another thing that crossed my mind is that perhaps Frau likes "old-school" and installed a theme to make her OS look like WinXP. Who knows though, I really usually don't pay much to minor details, but for this time...lol.




Is 2013, Windows XP where released in 2001. That's 12 freaking years and am still using them. I am typing this right now from my Windows XP OS.
Windows XP are the best Microsoft ever did. The only reason people are changing them is because of lack of ability to see more memory and new PC being sold with new OS.

But the thing is though, I see it very unlikely that a computer guru (considering she's also a game developer too) such as Frau in 2019 would still be using Windows XP when the support for XP ends in 2014.
Not disputing that XP was good, I just find it unlikely that in 2019, someone like her would be using an unsupported OS.

That's because you don't know that in one year from now Microsoft will cut support but a 30% of users will remain on it at least until 2015. A little later in 2015 a big hole will be discovered in all the new OS and three big attacking tools will find themselves in 70% of the install base of new OSes while attacking other PC with mostly similar OS but not always infecting them. There will be 70% infection and 25% crashing. The whole internet will look like collapsing. The programs seem to be so hard and well made that Microsoft starts searching for a possible leak of the source code and the damages continues for more than two months until first counter measures appear but nothing seems to completely solve the problem. The registry and source code changes inflicted are too much and the worse for Microsoft is that the new OS built for 2017 has the same weaknesses and now the project has to be pulled back at least two years(that will become three because Microsoft will have lots of other legal and profit problems along with trying to save what it can from it's products).

Only XP and Windows 2000 seem to be unaffected for some strange reason the public does not know. The 30% of Windows XP users are the only significant number though along with a few Apple users(apple fails to take advantage because by 2015 it starts having damages and lack of vision and seems unable to satisfy the public as a new platform by going in the attack dynamically) . The word of how XP is unaffected spreads fast and many users revert back to them. A sudden rise in search of Windows XP cd's and many pirated copies is being created and Microsoft under the heavy burden of lawsuits from companies and people damaged decides to use the only product it has that people still trust and along with stopping the pirating it restarts the support of Windows XP along with a new patch and a re-release that gives them more advance Direct X than the Direct 9C that where locked so gamers can still play their new games in full and a small tricky fix that can make them at least see and utilize 4GB memory. Microsoft in the meantime promises that her new OS (first announced for summer 2019 release but then pushed to early 2020) will be free from problems with almost a restructured code and once more being able to utilize bigger sizes of memory.
But in the meantime due to the events a big change in the software community happens with a turn to code refining, with new versions of popular programs being refined to utilize less memory. From browsers to Photoshop and media players new versions with less memory demands get released so they can approach the users that now use XP4G as the re-released XP are now being called(because of the 4GB memory).

So there you have it. That's how in 2019 people still use XP. Any connections to solar flares and robots along with mystic organizations and brainwashed Microsoft employees behind the massive data leaks that happened in 2015 are purely speculative and you have not heard anything about them from me.

Just like I expected, we got a more calm episode, just like every time after a serious shit one. Well, it was kinda dark, but it would be impossible not to be after the previous ep.

Anyway, it was a good one for sure. Kai rules as always, but Frau was epic as well this time. Especially with her moves on Kai xD

But I will be honest and announce the actual character with best performance in this episode:

Episode that finally will please those who saw in the relationship between Frau and Kai something more! XD The idea that I had done is that the history of Kona was secondary in this small arc started in the previous episode and finished today, but it was not so. Well done to the authors, have been able to amaze me. However, a few steps into the main plot there was, or the fattening of Frau in the life of Kai .... ah, I wanted to say in the activities of the club! LOL Quite intriguing narrative talking about the episode, although technically!
