^it felt a bit rushed to me too and i never saw the VN >.>

they still havn't confirmed mayuri will not die, what if her death gets postponed only 1 day again? :3
that thing of the clock stopping when she is about to die hasn't be explained yet

I though the only left things for him to do is save Kurisu.
Now out of nowhere, Suzuha just call Okarin to stop the World War III ? What!? o_O
LOOOL? 2 episode left? ಠ_ಠ

At first I cried.
Then... I cried some more.
Then I smiled when they kissed.
Then I cried... even more.
And more...

I seriously lost it when Okabe went nuts after he couldn't hear Kurisus confession.

Then, at the silent end... WWIII. I WTF'D LIKE NEVER BEFORE.


This anime is a beast. One of the best I've ever seen. I never cried so fucking much in an Anime. Ever.

Well I think the whole WWIII and the Kurisu are two things in one.

First of all, episode blew me away! I had every emotion I could have, crying, happynes and wtf'ness... but it gave me a theory...

Kurisu was murdered by Suzuha. Why? Suzuha mentioned Kurisu was working with SERN in her time. Probably SERN recruited Kurisu after her presentation she gave in the first episode. Or shortly after that. The conclusion is, that Kurisu did the same thing. Helped making a time machine. But not for Okabe no, this time she helped SERN making it and they ruled the world after that with it.

To stop this Suzuha killed her in this timeline to prevent all of that happening. BUT, why does Suzuha call Okabe this time?

Probably cause the divergence timeline is a litte different than the previous one, and that the Suzuha of now remembers the Okabe of the previous one. Saying the whole story to him and wanting to kill Kurisu for it.

Luckily for us, Kurisu felt in love with Okabe and so probably when she sees him she falls in love with him again goes with him and live happily ever after :D. ..

Well last part is just hope, the other things I am sure is right.. or has a chance to be right. Tbf I hope it isn't right so it can mindblow me again xD.

Inb4 Suzu has some recollection from all the worlds, just like Kurisu, so instead of killing her (I'm supposing this is what happens since she calls okabe this time), she manages to remember those times with her, and realizes that killing her won't be necessary, so she calls okabe for a happy reunion :>

W-wait, then who was Okabe's first kiss with?

Moeka. Poor guy.
*tries not to burst laughing*
I will instead stay with Mayuri although that will not happen but I still would prefer it to be Okabe x Mayuri.

Yeah the kiss was done like 2 times? IMO it looked more 4 times. They should have added things more spiced up but of course that would ruin things further.

I think they should have stopped at hug. They should have done this at the end after Okabe does something to obtain the true end thing. Right?

i don't think that's perverted, i think is the right thing to do.
Hence I remind that I wrote things getting spiced up, that is what I had in mind. To further enhance details:

-Okabe x Makise seen bed.

-Makise only in underwear and Okabe in boxers.

-Movement of having sex but only in shadows or the face of Makise/Okabe being in heat. Not showing any nudity nor too much.

Would that be satisfactory to people? I think it would be. IMO for with Mayuri just a pic with her and Okabe having family would have made me happy but that might not happen at all either sadly.

If you haven't noticed, now is time to speculate around a little as a start. 2 episodes is just so short to have fun around here and talk about this series before it really ends.

We're literally back to episode 1/2. Nothing happens except Kurisu's death(which might have changed). So everyone's back, etc.

I was trying to read her lips and IMO she said " I love you" this would be logical because she comes back to say it only to be interrupted again by the time warp start.

You can say it that way but I was just mesmerized precisely because it was well done indeed and intense to say the least.

My applaude goes to this,

we have finally went above the 1% and I was totally jumpy. I was screaming out in happiness. This fan is happy that Mayuri was saved and is OK. Looks like the God of Saturn is happy, being featured a little again in that calendar gave away enough hints on that one.

Like everyone says the thing with Suzuha could be a original ending where I see Okabe either going into the future to finish off SERN or do something to cut them out in the present like invading their HQ. It's possible the last 2 episodes may outdo the VN if the action is EPIC.

Watch out VN people, you may get impressed.

That depends on Okabe and his feeling sharing. In this episode it once again proved just like with Mayuri that the Reading Steiner may be shared if emotionally all is there as in the love Okabe has for Makise. Thus the memories may resurface.

I guess they really did troll us into Mayuri x Okabe being more like a sister/brother relation and Makise x Okabe being total serious love. Damn, that's too bad.

Oh Shit...Stop World war III... what?
So basically, it's like we're at the beginning now, but if alpha future was controlled by SERN, then beta's...what? and if Suzuha came from the future...someone succeeded on making the time machine~

Geez what and emotional episode...I admit, I cried all along T_T there I said it.

I seriously lost it when Okabe went nuts after he couldn't hear Kurisus confession.

Then, at the silent end... WWIII. I WTF'D LIKE NEVER BEFORE.

Same here T_T

I don't even want to wonder about what's next...though I'm kind of lost regarding this world line and I would like to be a little less...my question is...could things have changed in beta from what it was originally supposed to be...? (I think I need to re-watch the beginning and I just started this anime last week ...wooot?!!!)

Ok, I'm really confused, so I'll just wait dying inside/re-watching episodes/punching walls to pass time/getting to the hospital with hand's bones broken/ inventing the time machine to go to the future and watch next episode (...normal stuff) patiently for the next episode...meanwhile I'll be like "omg omg omg omg omg ~inf." I seriously dislike my fanatical attacks...but damn this anime got me. For good.

Ok, what if...as Tuturuu~ (srsly I forgot her name...ah...Mayuri!) remembers her deaths from alpha world line...then, if the other characters do too...maybe something changed! I don't know .-. It would be cool if there was a gamma world line :B (nah...at this point it would be kind of lame :x) Also, why the hell steins thingy that allows Okabe to remember everything also passed to other characters...I have been thinking about that since Ferris-nyan reversed her D-mail...anyway, maybe it's just like Kurisu said "insert whatever she said that sounded really beautiful about existence and world lines(...)"

That's not going to happen, because it's confirmed that we will get the True Ending deom the VN.

and lol, people still thinks that this Suzuha is the alpha Suzuha.
People we have arrived in The Beta Worldline

She's not Alpha world line Suzuha

It's been discussed that other character "remembering events" is not a Reading Steiner. because they basically have 2 parallel memories, while Okabe who has the reading Steiner only has one continuous memory. Basically they're experiencing some sort of De javu.

Confirmed but not impossible to change a few things in it to make it more EPIC like putting in action and stuff. That makes whether True Ending into an Original Ending. Perhaps it may be so to some.

One of the most memorable kisses of the season.


Pure speculation, but I'm guessing the next set of events will occur similar to The Disappearance of Haruhi Suzumiya (if anyone has seen it). Okabe has to send Suzuha to kill Kurisu in order to set into motion the events of episode 1.

I always wondered about that. Whether the people in other world lines go on living or if the universe literally revolves around Okabe and the only world lines that "exist" are the ones he's currently in.
I hope this stopping of WWIII in the last 2 episodes doesn't fuck anything up.
