Hmm, so John Titor left it for Okabe then? So who is Moeka really? Questions, questions~

Pretty convenient that they found it so easily. D:

Ruka <3 What a nice/pretty trap.

We got some answers at least, but I predicted that the IBN 5100 would be the key.
Other than that, I got bored during this episode. The firing off b/t Okabe and Kurisu was tolerable at first, but got really dull and annoying as the episode went on.
Overall: A weak episode.

In my opinion, Episodes 3 and 4 are probably the weakest episodes so far. 1 and 2 do a very good job at starting the show, but the pace is really slow until episode 5. 3 and 4 do do a good job at establishing the characters, though. It almost makes me wish that pace was maintained after episode 15.

Hmmm, more time travel quanderings, and other shenanigans.

And more Kurisu is always a good thing!

Good episode. Okarin and Kusiru are hilarious together. Things got a bit more interesting in this episode.

I can't stop lol-ing at Rintarou's constant, over-the-top speeches.

"Tuturu~" A lot of that this episode. Then some card games!

Seems like Kurisu-TIIINAAA and Rintarou are getting along very well.

Raku's dad got it 10 years ago; doesn't that coincide with when John Titor first appeared on the internetz?

I love Rintarou's belief in himself as Hououin Kyouma and his insistence in saying Kurisu+TIINNAA. She's gonna end up either killing him or marrying him.

I, too, loved this statement.

This show knows comedy.

Haha yes!

At first I thought the series was devoid of human emotions and filled with annoying jabbering females and one prominent insane male. But things kicked off pretty well this episode. They're slowly inducing the emotional touches I want.

Also, I really expected that they'd have to hunt the IBN to the world's ends but I'm glad nothing was dragged and the cliched 'It's not with us anymore' stunt wasn't pulled.

The best way someone is fat using scientific terms =)

Kurisu's tsundere side is clearly showed in this episode, and it looks like there was indeed something happened to Kurisu (or her dad) in the past maybe regarding this time travel thing.

Okarin's pun is very entertaining as usual; G-BACK -- Jibaku

They finally get the PC, glad they didn't dragged this matter too long~

Me too! I feel like he's getting her back for the way she said his name during the lecture on time travel. ;)

I'm glad they're taking a minute to slow down and let my tiny brain catch up. Overall, I felt like this episode had some nice foreshadowing. I love cats, but I'm probably the only person that finds all that "nyaa~" stuff to be incredibly annoying. >.<

maybe, who knows I just like the way he says it with so much emphasize on the tina part xD;;
as for the nya thing, I find it kinda eh ok, but after a while I might start to get annoyed also.. but it depends xD;;

same here. but in general rin's intereaction with everyone is just awesome.

Hahaha, I don't have to say again how much fun Okarin and KURISU-TINA are, but I will.
I'm a little bit surprised that they got the IBN so fast though. I'd like if the series ended without a clear idea of whether SERN actually had a big conspiracy, or Okarin and them are entirely crazy.

Feyris reminds me of Black Hanezawa from Bakemonogatari "~nyanyanyanya" Give it a rest, already! =\

Now I get why Okarin calls Makise "Christina". Man I'm slow. Love the interactions between the two. And surprisingly no cliffhanger this time. Shock!

No cliffhanger this time, but the preview is the 'cliffhanger' this time, the part time girl reveals the warrior side of her that she was talking about.

ugh so annoying, of course not the anime but whoever is doing the timing for the subtitles. They either don't appear at all or the just blink and disappear as fast as they appeared, luckily I have seen enough anime to understand what they are saying but still its freaking annoying sometimes. Anyways I'm gonna guess that the IBN 5100 is going to break. Also would that maid's father be the time traveler, she said that her father left the pc at the shrine and the priest said whoever left it predicted that someone would come for it.

I'm surprised by how quirky this anime is. Based on the trailers and opening episode i thought it would be dead serious, but it's also really funny and charming.

Chrrristinaa is obviously the tsundere of the series and while i usually love that kind of character, her design is a little bland. My favorite is the Too-too-ruu girl, she's so freaking cute but not overly so like in a lot of recent anime.

Okarin is also an awesome Mad Scientist. He's a lovable bratty goofball but he can also get serious when he needs to.

This anime is awesome: It has Engrish, time travel, great characters, cute girls, humor and thrilling storytelling! So glad i bought it!

TOO MUCH useless yapping. plz don't tell me that this will turn into some kind of romance that develops between okarin and kurisu, pretty lame.....i find the pink hair maid annoying, and playing that game was just a meaningless call for attention.....lameee also. Whole ep just to get 1 IBN computer LOL, all that could use less screen time! steins gate needs to start getting somewhere, just 1 of the reasons why i dropped this anime the first place...

Yes, you right.

Sometimes, the dialogues are unnecessary or simply extended when they could be a little bit short.
I hope that references in dialogues will be explained later. Or are they random?

Anyway, I give a chance at the show, but actually I don't really like him.
Btw, I'm curious to continue (:

- I said if i participated , you 'd tell me what you know . In other words, i never cared about winning
- Is that right ?
- I don't really remember
- Remember it , it was my brilliant plan ! Where's the IBN ?
...
- I am sure when i was little , Dad had one , but it's gone .
- Why you, is that the secret move , you mastered in the ... , the Question - Dodge ? [...]

Ok, are you f@ck!ng kidding me ? How can people like this sh!tty anime ? My 5 year old cousin has a better humour than that .

Not to mention the man who looks like a woman ... Never thought i 'd see someone like Haku ( from Naruto ) in an anime .

I hope it changes to the better soon . ( = i still can't drop it )

Of course it is connected.

Had guessed that the IBM IBN 5100 was needed to read SERN's program code once the code was mentioned and I was right.

"KURISU- TINA" Lol getting back at her for "Hououin-san."

Suzuha a soldier?"Stardust Handshake."?Who is Amane?

Time travel is a sensitive subject to Kirsu.
"I don't want...to make the same mistake my father made!"

IBN 5100 is found.

Faris Nyan Nyan vs Okarin.To find out where the IBN 5100 is.Okarin loses,not that it matters he just had to participate.Unfortunately she doesn't have one.

Ruka's dad does however.
"The person who donated this told us...that someday,a young man who needed it would appear,so take good care of it."

I'm guessing John Titor was the left it 10 years prior for Okarin to use.
