| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Ooooh damn! What's Okabe gonna do?! I completely forgot Kurisu dies before everything happens. Shit just got more real. |
| "If you're not prepared to be wrong, you'll never come up with anything original." - Sir Ken Robinson |
| It's obvious now. Everything will end the way it started! ;_; |
| I feel like I should have seen it coming that Mr Braun was FB but wow....he was a SERN rat all along? makes sense it would be someone that close that they wouldn't suspect. oh man seeing Moeka die now and not being able to do anything, Kyouma has seen so much and he's the only one that remembers it, that has to be hard on him. and now what people expected, to fix the timeline and save Mayuri he has to. ... let Makise die. somehow I don't think he'll be okay with this. Ferris and her father, Rukako's feelings, and Moeka being used won't effect him like this... |

bakuramariks said: It's obvious now. Everything will end the way it started! ;_; No, that can't be! There has to be a world where both Kurisu and Mayushii survive, and where SERN doesn't create a dystopia. There has to. ;_; Anyway, another great suspenseful episode. Mr. Braun being FB was quite the surprise for me, and my mouth was open all the fucking time when he shot Moeka and himself. I'm glad that they retrieved the IBN 5100, but Kurisu. ;_____; |
 |
| And the twists keep coming... He finally realizes Kurisu's death will have to be dealt with aswell... After watching this episode, I'm doubting every character besides Mayuri, Rumiho & Ruka... Yes even Okabe - He's probably my favorite character for this entire year so far. But - I went back to re-watch the first episode to get any clues & during Kurisu getting stabbed scene, the yell is extremely similar to Okabe's voice... |

| "If you're not prepared to be wrong, you'll never come up with anything original." - Sir Ken Robinson |
| It was obvious that yell was his. There's no way they'll use the same voice actor to voice another person. No way. I was thinking this since the first time the anime aired. I am absolutely certain. But we can always doubt... (the F is going on?! o.O) |
| .... I saw FB coming but I still wonder how this is going to end. And I'm surprised Kurisu didn't realize what she said herself. |
bakuramariks said: It was obvious that yell was his Yes I think it's his too. Plus he yelled at pain, so he either tried to protect Kurisu or... he tried to kill her -for whatever reason- and she fought back? But the latter doesn't make much sense to me. |
 |
| We continue the twists of fate and the mindf**k of all plots. Okabe FINALLY realized that in order to save Mayuri, he has to reverse the world back to where Kurisu gets stabbed. What will Okabe choose? Paradox, Mayuri, or Kurisu? |

(the F is going on?! o.O) It seems this anime brings most of us to doubt a lot of things..But of course, there's reason to believe the option of Okabe being there, but not doing the "work" unless if Suzuha was correct on her betraying Okabe and the others. |
|
| My brain exploded from the intensity and suspense. This episode was fucking gold. |
 |
| That last Okabe epiphany scene was GREAT! I could actually feel it. |
| "Seize the time, Meribor - live now! Make now always the most precious time. Now will never come again." - Captain Jean-Luc Picard. |
| Lots of weird shit happens in the first episode so this is to be expected. |
| I really enjoyed the twist in the end. Love it when they make me realise something together with the protagonist. |
 |
| WRUHAHAHAHAHA! I knew it! I knew it! The B in FB stands for Braun! Sick episode like always. Im wondering how Okabe will do the things after he heared that Makise has to be stabbed again. :O |

It IS Okabe's voice. Amazing episode once again, and once again I'll suffer a whole week. And finally he realized that in order to get to Beta world line he has to kill Kurisu. |
| Mr. Braun! gah Intense episode, yet again. |
| It will be tough situation for Okabe since Makise have help him a lot of all those world lines. But there sure is other way to save both of them, if he return beta world he could do everything, saved the world . Makise have always been his alliance Don't make Makise died, please don't do that. Moeka begin to remember that she killed Mayuri, and she sorry. |

| A Large chunk of the story got omitted, but honestly the part that was cut just complicated the whole situtation and it will need more episodes which we can't have. so if anyone's wondering WALL OF SPOILER for the omitted scenes. Read on your own violation. I bolded the omitted parts |

| Damn that was some crazy shit! O_O had goosebumps the whole episode. Cant wait for the next epsiode. |
| Isn't Ferdinand Braun dead for over 90 years? And he had beard+moustache and wasn't bold. Or maybe HorribleSubs misspelled something? I have solution! If I remember he's a Genius. He can wait few years, then build working time satellite(?) and Nuclear Bomb, send it back to past and nuke SERN!!! |
| I hated Moeka....but now...I feel bad for hating her </3 Wait a second though, is Okabe the one that kills Makise to save Mayuri....shiiiiiit. I hope it doesn't turn out like that...I like Makise 999999999999x better then Mayuri :( |

| If it's a novell then it show a lot of details since it doesn't show anything about Nao about her time travelling. kaimax said: A Large chunk of the story got omitted, but honestly the part that was cut just complicated the whole situtation and it will need more episodes which we can't have. so if anyone's wondering WALL OF SPOILER for the omitted scenes.

| This episode WAS gold. Im sad to see that the show is ending in 4 weeks ._. damn. |
 |
| Damn it, I need to re-watch the beginning. I don't remember anything from the first few episodes. |
| I'm hoping Tuturu STAYS dead, and Kurisu lives! :D Because its obvious who's super sexy. ;D |
| "Ogon’ po gotovnosti!" |
| I pretty much knew Mr. Braun was FB ever since someone pointed out the Ferdinand Braun thing after the episode where Moeka first mentioned FB. The execution (no pun intended) was something I definitely never saw coming. Moeka is completely absolved of all her sins as far as I'm concerned. But I wonder, won't Mr. Braun get suspicious now that Moeka never recovered the IBN 5100? 5 star episode right here, though. Even better than episode 19, and the best episode in a while. I don't care much for Mayuri, but she is adorable and Okabe obviously treasures her, so I want her to live. Either Kurisu dies or no one dies. That's how I see it. Either way, though, Kurisu can't be trusted. She's way too smart to stay blindly loyal to Okabe. I'm telling you, there is a VERY good reason that Suzuha didn't trust her. |
 |
| And the plot thickens! Now that we've got yet another twist and mindfuck makes me love this show even more. Oh noes, Kurisu has to die in order for Mayuri to live....I don't want that happen! I'm sure Okabe is smart enough to somehow avoid doing that and let them both live! Please don't let her die, Okabe. ;__: |
| Mr. Braun surprised there for a second :o Him being the FB also got me hooked up being = :O I admit that this show is one of the favorites from this year (obviously?!) Now Okabe have a hard time to choose, wonder what he'll do, cuz it's something i wouldn't think of doing. |

darkziosj said: kaimax said: Omitted stuff wow they omitted that? that sucks, i hope they somehow fit it in the next episode They won't, trying to forcefully insert that in the next chapter is just "pushing it". and if you think bit, the "omitted scenes" doesn't really affect the main story at all. It just complicated things and just trivial knowledge since they never made any kind of closure with that "sub-plot" in the VN. Basically it's a sub-plot, and the anime didn't need it. Another reason to play the VN |

STM said: bakuramariks said: It's obvious now. Everything will end the way it started! ;_; No, that can't be! There has to be a world where both Kurisu and Mayushii survive, and where SERN doesn't create a dystopia. There has to. ;_; There likely is one, but it's in the other direction below 0.000001. Anyway, FB wasn't a real shock to me as I suspected him at one point. I assumed it would be more elaborate however. As everyone is now fully aware, yes pretty much what we thought was going to happen will likely happen. Unless some major shit goes down in the next four episodes to change the course of events, Kurisu is iced. As for the discussion of the side-story, mayhaps we just found out what our mystery special will be? I'm still hedging most of my bets on beach or spa episode, but ya never know. |

yutas said: God damn you Moeka you deserved more than a punch!I also realized that they sent first a D-mail to win the lottery, will they try to undo this even if it didnt work? It turns out the answer to this question is no. Undoing Moeka's D-Mail actually pushed the divergence even higher (though only slightly higher) than it was right after Okabe sent the first D-Mail. They don't have to bother with the lottery ticket D-Mail. Although, being such a slight change in divergence, it's still to be determined if Mayuri's death has been pushed back another day. Considering the depth and amount of content of the VN, another season of Steins;Gate seems very possible to me. The likelihood is another story. There's just so much of this story that can't be covered in 24 episodes. |

| Awesome episode. FB being Braun and the subsequent bullets to follow were exciting. I am a little disappoint that he finally realized what the first D-mail was after getting this far. |
| It's a little weird that Kurisu seems almost completely oblivious to the gravity of the situation at hand. Does she have something up her sleeve that she's not revealing? |
|
| Darn, the little girl wasn't FB. =[ |

| Kurisu: The first D-Mail, huh? That's the one where I was stabbed or whatever, right? |

| Fuck! people dies like flies in Stein's Gate like Higurashi. I wonder when Kurisu ordeal will come up, it seems you cannot have them both Okabe the childhood friend and the sexy genius. |
| I feel really sorry for okabe :( I hope he will solve everything godly episode 5/5 |
 |
| One thing I didn't like about this episode is the casualness of Okabe's use of the time leap, making it somewhat reminiscent of the slightly-painful-to-watch episode 13. It's not that I disagree with Okabe using it so casually, it's just that I don't think it makes for very good television. It makes it more like that episode of Family Guy where Peter goes back to 1984 (it was funny in that context, but doesn't work in this one) and less like Madoka. |
