I do speak Japanese and read every route of VN, this is FAKE info. even there is no bad ending like this. I think this series deserves to watch to the end. (so that I'm here) |

Fai said: I did and its actually pretty freaky, creepy in a sense tht someone named "John Titor" was on message boards claiming to be a time traveler.LadyOrihime said: Can someone refresh my memory? How does Suzuha know of John Titor? Are we in a world that he is known again, or has she known of him even after the first change? The emblem she is holding. Look it up. Everything in this show is based on the things that happened in the real world. That emblem is there too. --------------- Anyway this pretty much confirms parallel timelines AND denies the possibility of initiator retaining memories, since technically that Okabe has been left in the parallel universe in which he sent the message. Now why the hell this Okabe and every other Okabe we have seen have memories of those shifts? Also - YAY for butterfly effect phenomenon being displayed. A butterfly flaps his wings on the one side of the world, a hurricane happens on the other. The main principle and danger with time travel - SMALLEST details changed can lead to very very different things, starting chain reactions no one could understand. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Butterfly_Effect This is exactly what we saw with Dr.Pepper bottle and why okabe's message made it happen. |

| couldnt help but read the manga... im so impatient... xD think the current chapter is about 2 or maybe 3 episodes ahead hehe and while i was it i read suzuha's story too xD anyways cant wait for next week! |
| Great episode! Can't wait to see if we get some answers next week. |
| Pretty decent episode. I wonder if Suzuha is from future. ;] |

Xiao97 said: Not only that. A satellite crashed into a building. Still wondering how that message was even able to effect that much. What confuses me even more is the fact that Daru said he thought the message was spam. So how was it suppose to effect anything in the past? Can't wait for the next episodes, I'm dying to know o_o It can be rather confusing, but in the world with time travelling you can create a self-inducing chain reaction of time-changes with one small, insignificant change. For example: He sent message to Daru, who thought that it was a spam, but when Okarin saw this, he understood that their phone-microwave (temporary name) can send messages into past. Now he began to experiment with D-Mail, further changing the past. This changes could affect other D-Mail experiments, creating self-inducing chain reaction of time-changes, if you allow me to repeat myself... But that's just guessing, of course... |
 Never saw no miracle of science, that didn't go from a blessing to a curse Never saw no military solution, that didn't end up as something worse |
AlexTrusk said: In response to that, IMO what bothers me is that there is no showing of him remembering the changes in the distant past only the past that is short such as 10 minutes ago. Is that a fact or it will be revealed that he will remember further into the past of the changes he made to himself and what he himself went through?Xiao97 said: It can be rather confusing, but in the world with time travelling you can create a self-inducing chain reaction of time-changes with one small, insignificant change.

| This episode was pretty cool, i also love how we got two cute girls working with him. It's really interesting when you see Okarin change time with a text. |
| Mayuri's 'Tutturu' is very catchy. I had it replaying in my head countless times. |
| I'm just about to draw a damn webchart to solve this whole thing out. Ill post my findings when I find them conclusive...heheh |

| So, John Titor is just another wacko. |

Riga92 said: Cool shit bro! That's great to know. This is good. 2 episodes per chapter really does make the chapter nor rushed. This series should be a example for the "Series rushed and chapters skip" problem with many anime adaptations. Thus why 20 and more episodes are the best series in general.Yumekichi11 said: Holy shit @ the spoiler! O_O I am bewildered. That will be so mindfuck and a miracle at the same time.

Wildsleven said: let me enlighten you... :P That is one LOLsome plot for me right there. wonder if it will be anime :P makes me wonder why not just make her a girl in the first place? sinse traps should just remain as eye-candy and never be tampered with. Unless of course if you have a time machine(?) :D |

weeabooweeaboo said: The change "moved" him from 2000 to 2010, before the change he posted in 2000 before disappearing, after the change and in the current world he first appeared in 2010, and he is currently posting. Yes, but what I want to know is, hypothetically as someone who hasn't played the VN or looked up spoilers, how does she know who John Titor is? Was it just her able to hear Okabe talk about him because she said she can hear them from their opened window? Or is it just because she also knows Titor from @channel, but somehow knows Okabe is in talks with him? Or does she keep all her memories despite which timeline she is in? Because I'm just thinking along the lines as someone who doesn't know who she really is. If she was as regular as anyone else - say, like...Mayuri - how come she would know who John Titor was, and someone like Daru doesn't? hmmm...I'll just have to re-watch the episodes, me thinks. herox3 said: Linalee-Stratos said: .__. You shouldn't spoil people without warnings like that Minor VN spoiler...not really a spoiler, but just to be safe: |

| Well, that pic is the last scene of Ruka route ending. So I think it's not spoiler for anime version which adopts the true route story. It never happens in anime after all. |
| This episode was gr8 o_O Looks like the story is finally going somewhere really good and interesting, John Titor wanting Okarin to be the messiah !? LOOOOL xD? |
| Wow... I love this episode! So far it's my favorite anime of the season. ^^ |
| This show needs less Mayuri. |

| I like how the series is trying to pull in real events and people. Just in case people don't actually know who John Titor is I'd like to explain. It should shed light on where this story may be heading and who might actually be John. |

| Protip: I don't really check the forums anymore, so if you want something, take it on my profile. Is it time for my long-awaited return to the forums? щ(ﾟДﾟщ) Nope™, probably not. |
| So, contributing my theories. First, human death mismatch. I am one hundred percent sure that Okabe is the match they're looking for. I don't really see any way he couldn't be. Second, episode one. Kurisu, shortly before being stabbed, asked him about what was presumably him trying to warn her about the stabbing just fifteen minutes ago. Okabe was unaware of this, which means the world line must have shifted (to one where his text had been sent?) within the last fifteen minutes. His actions had been changed retroactively, but he had no memory of this. It seems to me that this could mean a couple things, but I can't make any of them really make sense yet. The thing that's not adding up for me is that because he remembers the actions of his previous worldline, he'd remember sending the text. I might post an actual theory once I can get one to the point that it's doesn't contradict itself. It seems to coincide with the time when Mayuri loses her metal upa and texts Okabe about it. Those have to be connected somehow. Okabe isn't actually crazy, or at least not as much as everyone thinks he is. His delusions are all a result of retaining knowledge of the previous world line without attaining knowledge of what has been changed. We know that at the very least, in addition to the two we've seen, there was one ten years ago the first time John Titor went back in time. Quite likely most of his fears and paranoias were real at some point. He's also a little unhinged just because of the way reality keeps changing on him. That'll do that to you. Not to mention that it's quite likely history got changed somewhat every time SERN sends anything back in time, which would also effect him. It's quite likely his reality has been shifting on a fairly regular basis for most of his life. |
| awesome episode! it's getting really interesting now :D |
 |
| Holy shit! So Okabe's the only one known so far to keep his memories even in another time branch. That's amazing! So to change the future Titor wants him to be the Messiah? Can't wait to see where this goes! |
 |
| Time manipulation plots always leave me with a headache... -.- ...But they usually tend be extremely interesting since they also tend to work out your brain quite a bit. |
