Welp, it would suck to be Okabe at that moment. He's going to go mad. In fact, next episode could be him breaking those guys' necks.

Okay, not really. This episode was damn fine, I really didn't expect that ending, and it seems we're entering the more story-driven part of the show like in the original.

Hmm... I wonder how Okabe is going to get out of this one, last time he went back but he can't go back with no equipment can he? Great episode, loving this so much!

A very good character development. We have 4 viewpoints at least: Okabe (and his flashbacks with "watch stop"/"pain, go away"), Maho (seeking the answer, what Kurisu was like), Suzuha (never forgetting about her mission and now meditating what happened to Kagari) and Mayuri (investigating details of the puzzle she feels due to her strong empathy&intuition, but still doesn't know exactly). That subtle and delicate shades'n'undertones I like the most. Non-lineaerity and polyphonic theme is better arranged than in VN. I'm looking forward to tighter tapestry interweaving.

It's just me or there is a Chaos;Head/Child indirectly appeared in the episode? If you check closely the intruders at the last scene, there is a Sumo Sticker(that appeared in Chaos series)-like mask


It's probably not a coincidence. Don't Steins;Gate and Chaos;Child take place in the same universe?

Nice gentle pacing, helping us get to know Shiina Kagari and some of the other characters a bit before we go down the rabbit hole.

That ending, though:-

Hori Cow!

"My watch stopped working" (S;G ep12)
"I can't connect to the Amadeus server" (S;G0 ep6)

that ending gave me shivers

Okabe is doomed, if something happens similar to mayuri's death on alpha worldline, he have no means, cause there's no time leap machine existing here. I wonder if Mr Brown is involved with this raid, I mean his daughter is there too. If the SERN rounders and those raiders now are not related, maybe Mr. Brown get a help from them.

Damn cliffhanger, such a pain, waiting for a week.

The animation and directing quality were notably bad. I hope the next one improves, because it will definitely need them. Prepare your seat bells, this truck is going full force without brakes now.

Not the Japanese shaman girls I expected, but it was still funny. I love all the hints and red herrings they are pushing.

@Exeterna @kidlat020 don't post spoilers in this thread, Jesus Christ. People who speculate here don't want immediate answers.


Finally haven't seen you in a while, I found the directing pretty good here and animation quality here and there, but I think that is just me.

A lot of foreshadowing in this episode, showing us what the villains are up to, and that ending.. As soon as Amadeus stopped working i had flash blacks to steins gate ep 12 with the masked men charging in. I hope no one dies.

wow that episode.. the glance that the wife of the professor gave was just way too suspicious. They just came to the shrine and immidiately left because the shrine maidens were already gone.. Yea no. that was way too suspicious. I feel like they checked on kagari or something if she's there, i don't know something seems off with the wife, not sure if the professor is in the boat too though but most likely.

and that ending? really curious as to whats going to happen in the next episode.

It seems that matters took an exceedingly nostalgic turn for Okabe. Switching world lines did not offer him much of a respite. I am anxious to find out how tragically will Okabe's compatriots fare this time.

The dark event even overshadowed Leskinen's dismay over not meeting famous shamans and Maho's overall awkwardness. Damn the ones that threaten the legal loli.

There's no point in these posts. People who read the VN already know it, and I very much doubt anime watchers would want to get spoiled like that anyway.

Lol, I know they give off that vibe, especially in that scene but they aren't a family. XD

Yeah, I probably worded it too harsh. There are some "meguca" faces and too much panning (+questionable boob shot), but it's still not something that unwatchable. Would have preferred if that end scene started with silence and then switched to the VN OST though, but I guess the impact was still delivered good enough. Overall the quality just felt kinda weaker compared to the previous episodes.

I honestly could not believe how ugly the first shot was. Rushed TV anime is so sad. Steins;Gate is a story that really deserves all of the time and funding it can get. Cutting corners and producing derpy faces (off-model design and a huge dumb mouth flap) like that is a real shame.

But the story is still going strong and gripping. Mostly slow progressions - Kagari isn't remembering much and only subtle foreshadowing has dropped (and a not so subtle hint that the unlikable lab woman who is with blond foreign dude and Maho is bad news).

But damn what a twist and cliffhanger! It's one of the things Steins;Gate does best - go slowly to give you a false sense of comfort and ease with the story only to turn that upside down with a sudden dramatic moment. I felt the same sense of horror that Okabe did when Mayuri's watch stopped working.

Uhhhhh... so are they finally gonna use the time machine on that rooftop or Daru actually finished a prototype by now. Holy shit dunno if someone will die or they'll get out of it. Pretty sure Mr. Braun is suspicious as hell before the attack. What was on screen of his phone anyway? Judy is also suspicious. Haven't read the VN so no idea about what's gonna happen!

very fantastic episode.
I almost crying together with Kagari.
Very happy to see Kagari, making bonds of friendship with Mayushi, Okarin and his friends.
And his episode make a good memories of first steins;gate.
6 episodes - 2 monts of story, His need retrate 15 years in steins;gate 0,I imagine much seasons.
Very curious to discovery relations of Moeka and Hyajo.

I actually thought they weren't going to do something similar to how the first one happened so after Mayuri said her watch ain't working I was all *Nah, they wouldn't do the same thing again.. right? ''mask guys with guns pops in'' FUCK!!!!'*
Enjoyable ep overall! can't wait what happens next especially now that there's no time machine, kinda glad they didn't end with a gun shot going off, woulda been torture to think who got shot.

If Mayuri does die, at this point it is really doubtful that she will die, if she does then Okabe will need to do shit to change time liine, the time line will change instantaniatly, because we will face a paradox. if Mayuri dies she will never meet young Kagari, so Kagari never gets send back and this raid never happens.

PS
think every one has mostly missed a sublyminal detail in this episode, I may be wrong though.

This is where things start to kick off! I was worried it would take too long.

Still though, Okabe must be pretty depressed. He just isn't thinking straight, saying Suzuha isn't convinced about the timeline when she's literally from the future XD

If your favourite character is Tsutsukakushi Tsukiko, you are my soul mate.

Been a long time since I've been here, I'll continue expressing myself freely and believe everyone should too.
