Ok. So, first of all loved this episode! The feels! And the english dub is just soooo good! Anyway, I had one problem/plot hole question...

How can deleting SERN's info about the first D-mail in the PRESENT, change what happened in the PAST? I just can't wrap my head around how Daru hacking into SERN's database and deleting the D-mail info could move world lines and alter the past. Sure, deleting the info would prevent SERN from furthering their time travel research (assuming no one over at the SERN headquarters can remember anything about the intel they gathered on the first D-mail) but how does that affect what has already happened?

No. This episode doesn't exist. I will go back in time and tell myself to drop Steins;Gate if I have to. I will protect my waifu at all costs.

But still, brilliant episode.

So sad. It's just not fair. That kiss was great, I knew that he liked Makise. But it's just not fair.
Now I'll give it 10/10. Truly amazing. Just a few episodes left..

But after credits scene.. World War III??

This was a pretty decent episode. In my opinion a weaker one, though that may be just because I'm not really a fan of Okabe x Makise (I dislike Tsunderes in general, usually.)

HOLY SHIIIIIIT ENDIIIIING

It's odd; despite all of the really emotional scenes, this series has yet to make me actually cry. This episode ALMOST did it though. I could practically feel Okabe's pain.

Still no explanation on WHY Kurisu killed and who killed her.

Ecstatic Suzuha is back though!

This episode was so sad and at the same time so beautiful.
All the Okarin-Kurisu moments...so good.
But why!? Why did he choose to save Mayuri then?

WTF@ the end. Suzuha is back. Maybe she brings a solution to save Kurisu?

There isn't more than one Okabe, because he has the most sensitive form of Reading Steiner. Kurisu, on the other hand, has vestigial memories of the time that she spent on the Alpha worldline, and her relationship with Okabe kicks off at the end of the OVA, moving into the movie, and then grinds to a halt in the LN sequel (Two tsundere characters make for an awkward relationship, who would have thought?)

"Okabe!"
"Kurisu?"
"Okabe, I...I love..."
Then another world line begins.
Feels.
I love how Okabe and Kurisu kiss each other repeatedly.
But in the end, Suzuha calls him.

Yeah, but I was thinking that he liked Mayuri a bit more than just as a childhood friend, he even created the whole crazy scientist thing to cheer her up...I would like it if they were more than friends, I like Kurisu too, just saying...

Well there are routes for all the girls in the VN at least, Mayuri included

The anime solely follows the True route though (which is really all that matters in the end)

blah, the romance felt so forced. Maybe it's just because I still see Kurisu as a lame character without any real depth to her. I dunno...

I did like that final scene, though... it was a nice way to end things, although it's a bit odd that this isn't the final episode, it definitely feels like the finale.

What can they possibly do in another two episodes? and what's this about World War III?
I'm somewhat intrigued, but seeing as how the show has started to slowly go downhill after episode 12 when things got all melodramatic and boring, perhaps I also shouldn't expect that much.

Best episode again, yes.

I don't think it's forced, he's probably spent more than 10 years (reminds me of a certain LN huehue) with her already without her knowing and in those iterations she's the only one there to help him in his suffering.

A silent sayonara~

Everything reminds me of plastic memories these days. If it did end with this ep it'd be quite similar. Being MC is suffering. S;G would have been one of the saddest endings I've ever seen... anyways looking forward to the last two.

Oh wow that was actually very romantic and heart wrenching.

But as many mysteries are still lying behind I can't just enjoy the emotions.

And also why did Mayuri said "I'm okay already?"

Came close to crying this episode, but honestly, the way this plays out in the visual novel is much more emotionally charged. The feels train hits me hard in the visual novel. When he loses Makise in the hop back to Beta world line, and he awakes on the other side. I would have preferred to see tears swell to his eyes uncontrollably. I mean, I'd honestly feel like a part of me died if the one I love were to disappear. It wouldn't be easy to cover up, and it would be extremely painful. I didn't quite feel that this episode. Which kind of disappoints me, but regardless. It's 5/5 thanks to Einstein's Relativity and just before the kiss- "close your eyes", gahhh it's so damn romantic. Relationship goals.

This anime knows how to please its viewers. 4 kisses between the otp (which is one heck of a otp) is an instant win! With this, Mayuri is finally safe. Thank God... When she told Okarin that he can cry now, that was sad... And I sighed in relief when Suzuha called. Oh my God, I thought she was gone for good...

All's left is to save Makise. Good luck, Okarin. You can do it.

First post on MaL : Best anime I've seen, and still looking for one where my feelings will get even more stomped.

Did you know that John Titor's story is actually real ? Someone, in the early 2000s, posted on forums pretending he came from 2036 and had to go to 1975 to get a IBM 5100.
