THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
Lovely episode once again. If there is one thing to comment on the directing, it is that the drama is perfectly well done. As such with a sad face of Ruka in the spoiler
indeed it was a sad end for Ruka. Ever since Suzuha's farewell to *sniff T_T* Feiris's last episode and this episode. Each scene has had a emotional impact on me.

This series truly does a masterpiece job for directing itself well. This episode makes not exception as seen in the following,

it was a most perfect deep emotional moment that does not say much at first but has a major deep meaning inside of Ruka. I loved the date between Okabe and Ruka. It was nice and heartwarming. Of course Daru never stops with the ecchi in the spoiler
that mag looks nice.

This episode even had more humor than usual I thought but it was really nice at the end.

Also, I give in, I love Makise now. Trying to help with the date was cute.

This episode started with epic with the very first line. This is probably one of my favorites.


One D-mail left...and that is the very first D-mail isn't it, the one that prevented Kurisu's death? I'm amazed and saddened that I didn't see this coming when the reverse D-mail plan started.

edit: Oh, no Shining Finger's D-mail is next! but still, I think I just predicted something awful.

man I just don't see why he had to change this one..... how did the trap becoming a real girl effect the world line? seems each girl has feelings for him in the world line.

had some good laughs this time with the date. Okabe and Makise arguing over inexperience but Daru seemed the most clueless with his H-game walkthroughs lol. still remember Daru is the one that gets to have children hahaha.

I can't see things just getting solved after stopping Shining Finger's D-mail. this should be the hardest one though.... maybe she's not so bad? he has no idea what she changed though. it would suck for him having all these memories of worlds he changed.

I'll miss female Rukako.... but now that he's a guy again uh yeah.... no.

Ohhh dam! 6 episodes left and the next is Moeka's D-Mail. This will be the toughest one yet.

This episode did its share of drama so far. Ruka's D-Mail has been reversed.

The last is the possible demise for Makise. OR it could stay this way...

I agree that some serious shit is going to fly slow motion and hit the fan and then explode and then Okabe wil lbe all like "FUUUUUUUUUUUUU-" I've never been so pumped to see the next episode for an anime!!

This was a great episode, heavy on the comedy again but after the Necrosis arc we can use some more lighthearted stuff. I do agree that it seemed pointless to undo Rukako's D-mail, since it still won't get the IBN back. Should've gone straight to Moeka.

I wonder if Okabe's open-minded enough to be in a gay relationship with Ruka? Kinda a mood point since it seems like fem-Ruka's romantic feelings weren't reflected in male-Ruka, turning into respect instead. That or Ruka just isn't willing to admit his crush as a guy.

Next episode is the return of Shining Finger ... we'll see how Okabe manages to handle this one. I wonder if she'll admit love for Okabe as well? This really is turning into a mad scientist harem series, LOL.

Maybe male-ruka doesnt break the IBN , she said she was cleaning when she broke the IBN , maybe he will be more cautious as a man , or he wont be even cleaning lol.


The diference between this EP and last one , is that feriys accepted to go back to her other life , she was greatfull with okabe for saving her and her father... , but ruka didnt want to go back ,that's kinda sad for her.

okabe could send a d-mail to her to tell her not to break the IBN but... he may be scared of the side-effects , or maybe he didnt realize but...

he is indeed a man of mad scientist!

i also think that why he had to cancel rukako's d-mail. at least he could have choose it for last one...

this is merely a alternate end. do not watch this especially a last scene...

Be careful what you wish for, if he ends up having to undo his very first dmail she'll likely die.
So yea if we get an entire episode devoted to her it will mostly likely signify the end of her life.

Dang, I guess it's impossible to skip Feyris and Rukako's D-mail after all if Okarin headed immediately to Moeka's D-mail.

If Okarin didn't undo Feyris' D-mail, her father wouldn't have given the IBN to Suzuha since he sold it for the ransom. And if Okarin didn't undo Rukako's D-mail, the IBN would've been broken because of her.

So its inevitable for them to have sad endings. :(

If Okarin HAS to undo that very first D-Mail, then she's pretty much done for.

Also, is it me or was Okarin wearing a suit that resembles Death Note's Light Yagami's school uniform?

EDIT: Mayuri's ticked off attitude was win. :)

BOO , i'm guessing that he has to undo first D-mail too , so she's probably dead.

That's not cool , i was rooting for happy end with Kurisu and Okabe. After that first D-mail you can assume that Kurisu after that incident at the beggining never existed as a Lab Member :(

Very glad to see how the characters aren't meant to be all goody-goody when it comes to giving up their happiness; as the 'shining finger' effect plays a huge role in this matter.

Rukako's change was sad but whether she is/was a dude/lady, she always seemed to have feelings for Okarin.
And I am so jealous of her right now.

The whole 'How to go on a date' thing was funny. Kurisu was really sweet to actually buy him clothes for the date and he did look good in it. Ties are sexy.

Mayuri really looks different in her maid outfit. More mature-ish I must say.
So next is Moeka? Was happy not to see her for a while *rolls eyes*

LOL they're turning this into a harem

So the next one is Moeka, i honestly have no idea how Okabe is going to change this d-mail.
He'll probably ask for Kurisu's advice again, i love how Okabe mostly tells Kurisu about what he is doing (then again, Kurisu is the smartest of the group so its logical he talks to her)

another great ep;D felt sorry for Rukako, but hey, he can always get some money and make a surgery in the future and become a girl, its not a case of life or death like in the previous ep, which is good.

I really want to see Kurisu x Okarin, but im always thinking that if Mayushii is saved...maybe Kurisu will die again like in the first ep...?
ah, well, lets hope not.

Well, everyone who wishes Kurisu won't die, you really have to consider the gravity of what he's done. He enabled everyone to live their own private fantasies. Now he has to take it all away. But it's not just his friends who suffer for it. He suffers as well, because he remembers everything.

But I have a hunch I know how this is really going to end. I won't say anything in case I'm right on the money, but if I'm right, you have one hell of an ending to look forward to.

It's unknown what her dmail was, she SAID it was about changing her phone, but given the fact that she was a lying murdering spy we can hardly believe her. After her dmail the IBN disappeared from the lab. As for Christina fate, this has been apparent since they started backtracking on the divergence, anyone not atleast expecting it is delusional. ;)

That's awesome, man, thanks for sharing! It was awesome to see the "What If" for Rukako staying a girl. Sad in a lot of places, but I think it was a pretty happy ending.

Also thanks to darkziosj for the preview link, though I could've guessed next episode was Moeka-centered. We may finally find out who/what FB is.

So Ruka turned into a girl because he had a crush on Okabe when he was guy? That and he was extremely feminine.
And, oh? Kurisu seemed jealous that Okabe was going on date.
Nice episode, though it felt weaker than the previous ones. Somewhat of a comedic break from the serious tone this show has been doing lately.
