| KaixAki cutest scene |
| This show is so underrated, it's depressing. I don't see how a series connected with Steins;Gate can be underrated, but for some reason, this one sure is. I wonder how this series is going to end? I can't wait for the final episode to find out. |
| Kiss scene just made the episoe. |
 |
| wut? no frau? dropped. not really |
| 日本人はイッちゃってるよ あいつら未来に生きてんな |
| FUCK....I finally caught up! And only to see one of the most cliched episodes of the entire series....Ugh. I mean, it wasn't bad, but it had just about every single trope in terms of the second to last episode for most anime of this genre. (MC is going off to the last battle to save humanity, while finally declaring his love to the main female character) It really doesn't get any more cliche than that. Regardless....I'm excited to see how this end, but judging from this episode, I can make a good guess how it will indeed end. Anyways....Frau said it best about that kiss. |
| Little comparison with Steins;Gate |
 |
| Bland bland bland~ At least I expected that they would get it on in the future but well, the show has been preeeeetty bad, I didn't expect anything good in the last 2 epis. Good news, only 1 epi remains c: |

| So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old? I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them? I wonder how long people would put up with this. As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series. |
| this is it!! the action is about to come!!! lol at last my questions about the scene from first episode has been answered lol |

I wonder how this series is going to end? I can't wait for the final episode to find out. Some of us actually like to see consistent character progression and a solid backdone to the story, something that Steins;Gate was very good at: 1 story at a time, and at a correct pace. Robotics;Notes, though having good individual parts, tried to use so many of them at the same time, executing so many parallel stories without establishing a solid foundation, resulting in a weak development that started to fall apart slowly around chapter 10. You need more than cliffhangers, cute romantic scenes (even as good as this confession was) and a pseudo-serious, conspirational and desutional theme to build a good story, and one of those requirements is "consistency". That's the main difference between Steins;Gate and Robotics;Notes. If this achieves a good ending it can be a solid 7 in my list, though I still have to standardize how I'm grading what I watch :P |
| Well, the kiss seems like a death flag to me (Gurren Langan anyone?). The good guy always win but it will look quite dumb that a robot built by students in robot club defeating an advance robot built for mass destruction. |
 |
| i have a feeling that the finale will be epic >:) |

I'm sure it isn't underrated. It doesn't deserve 8. Plot had potential but it failed If Yashio dies it would be great, bitter-sweet ending. Or something totally unexpected: Bad guy manage to kill 5 billion people. I would burst out laughing. I was shipping Yashio x Hidaka. Frau too ;D And how they are going to win with Misaki's robot with their moving piece of junk. |
| Well, /a/ spoiled the kissing scene to me big time before I watched this episode. Fuck you /a/! >( Anyway, I really wonder how will they end this since only 1 episode left. KingCez said: DIE NORMALFAGS lol I LOL'ed on this. |

Nisheeth said: For someone who has read the VN, is the reason for why teh Noah IV invoke Kai's slow-motion explained? I second this. It seemed to do nothing otherwise. I won't even ask why not give it to someone else to try to see if it 'actually does anything', because that's how this anime is- but as it stands the device was made for 1 person who exists who was never intended to have it, and no one seems to care. 12x slo-mo is neat and all, but flawless illusions might prove better defensively against a multi-million dollar robot built with years of advanced research. Oh, and weapons. I bet the enemy robot will have weapons. Maybe be supported by more weapons- like those bots sister centipede came with. Wait- didn't Misaki 'free' Sister centipede last episode or something? Wait- I'm thinking logically. What about this series made me think that would apply... :P The confession scene was ok- even if (as pointed out) it was a S;G knock-off. I personally don't care about the romance stuff, but he both seemed to aloof to care about either really, or marginally spent more time with Frau- even bringing her gifts/doing the Kamijima reports for her- but whatever. Apparently love means 'Challenge me to a game of Gunvarrel'. And how the heck is Kimijima down to one pawn? Wasn't there a whole unresolved arc about people in the game being mind-controlled? Whatever. |

If you aren't watching Zetsuen no Tempest (Civilization Blaster), you should be. Brilliant writing with legit plot twists. Just finished blog entry 'Japanese Authors Take Heed' Series (JATH)! Entry 03: Proactive Villains, Reactionary Heroes'. |

Well, I'm not sure, but I think that is because of Anemone incident.I bet, Aki would suffer seizure too, if she used Noah IV. I mean, we don't really know what kind of experiments Kimijima was doing. Maybe it was something about Noah IV. About romance. Akiho is Kaito's childhood friend, actually. There is nothing strange about his love to her. Especially now, when they're experiencing such an ordeal. |
Finjas said: Well, making the Noah IV 'just' so Anemone survivors could have seizures at will may be some 'experimental' point- but that still has nothing to do with the flawless illusions we saw earlier. I'm not finding it 'strange' that he loves his childhood friend- just that he would 'love her' so much as to snub her as often as he did. Like I said- he really seemed apathetic altogether- he could 'confess' he loved almost anyone based on the 'clues' we were given. On a morbid note- why make someone you love responsible for possibly triggering your death? What a gift for her to agonize over the rest of her life... |

| Give me back my S;G. R;N is simply boring (sorry). |

| Where is my Kai x Frau!? Wrong route :( |
u8sand said: leetshoe said: wtf l thought he was on Frau's route haha I was totally for him and frau can't do anything now that things are decided though, it's not that bad. that confession was quite great XD Great ep got me hyped for the last ep There will be many fanmade pictures of Frau x Kai, and i cant wait to see them :D |
| Well the device Kimijima was testing during the SS Anemone Incident was probably Noah III. It was based on data scavenged from the lost Project Noah. An electromagnetic irradiation experiment to induce mass illusion. He was going to test its limit which will surely kill his test subject. Note that Kimijima operated the experiment at his apartment, where Misa-nee found him. I haven't read the Noah IV part yet, but it seems that Kai got his seizure from either artificial stress directly induced by the N4, or the powerful electromagnetic radiation alone is enough to stress him out. |

| lol kai pretty straightforward :D DIE NORMALFLAG |

No Kai x Frau??? Shippers just gone friendzone. I super like Frau's "die normalfags" and probably that's all I can say after the Kai x Aki confession/kiss. So Frau is 'Shining Finger' of RN, after all she gave him his first kiss. I'm bummed! I'm sure all the Frau x Kai shippers share the same sentiments as well. What's the point of all those frigging moments together?! Frau didn't get the guy, but she won our hearts - the best girl of this show. Frau's "route" ended in episode 14. He was never interested in her in romantic way, nor he knew she kissed him. Give up. |
|
| That confession. I think I replayed it five times. >///< They're so adorable together stop it you two. I didn't think Subaru had a thing for Aki though XDD Kai x Aki ftw. I think Hidaka and Frau should hook up. Just saying. I hope nothing happens to Kai. That thing put a strain on his heart, so... well, finale's next week. I'm going to miss R;N, I really liked it. |
| It seems that Kai is going to use his "power" in the final battle... And that kiss scene between Kai and Aki was beautiful. Lol, Frau's reaction... Can't wait to the final ep! |
"Nobody knows what the future holds. That's why its potential is infinite"- Rintarou Okabe |
| I liked the ending scene~ The rest still suffers from confusion. |
I have my own anime blog. It's called Anime Viking. Hope you'll you read it! |
| Subaru x Yashio I knew it see that blush Normalfags! |

| Kai x Aki ftw Great ep |
 |
| Better than the last episode I guess. Airi is getting on my nerves. Wtf, this is war not a playground. That confession scene between Kai and Aki is ok. Nowhere near Okabe x Kurisu confession scene though. |
Eddo said: Guys! Have you heard? They wont release the last episode of Robotics;Notes because the Director murdered all his team! Made my day. |
| Dem emotions. |
 |
| Bóring... I've been disappointed with this so far, recent episodes have been decent but this... This is just on another level of stupidity. The atmosphere doesn't fit the story at all, I feel like I'm being trolled every time I watch this. I even yawned during this and started daydreaming. Man this is disappointing, how did this even happen? |
I almost never read discussions after I made my post, if you want to reply PM me or post on my profile page. |
| idgi why did sister centipede glitch out so conveniently they also just happened to find a device that induced seizures it's like they made this up as they were going along and why wouldn't the missile just go after the truck shooting the laser at the robot |
| kai confession xD loved this episode the most |
 |
| 'DIE NORMALFAGS!'- Best quote of Robotics;Notes. lol |
| No, I wanted Frau's route. Well, let's go to the finale. Hopefully it is a good one. |
| that kiss made this episode o_o |
 <img src="http://i47.tinypic.com/2mw85l2.jpg" /> |
| Wait I thought he chose Frau earlier...? Oh well Aki makes a better pairing for him. Childhood friend wins for a change! |
| A match made in heaven set the fires in hell |
OGHelios said: Wait I thought he chose Frau earlier...? Did you notice that he has no interest in her after her last centric episode? |
|
| The robot might look stupid, but after that last scene, at the same time, it's FUCKING AWESOME. |
| Wow, I actually didn't expect him to just confess so directly like that. Very cute. Looking forward to the final battle. The bot is looking mighty fine and fast too! |
