Did anyone else pick up that Moeka didn't actually change her phone? She's always had the same one which means that she lied about what she sent in her D-mail?
Pirates are evil? The Marines are righteous? These terms have always changed throughout the course of history! Kids who have never seen peace and kids who have never seen war have different values! Those who stand at the top determine what's wrong and what's right! This very place is neutral ground! Justice will prevail, you say? But of course it will! Whoever wins this war becomes justice!

Poor Rukako, she had to hide her feelings for Okabe once she became a guy again. At least they got the spend the day together.

Love this series.

Boyfriend huh.

Okarin: "I prefer research over girls-"
Kurisu: "Definitely a virgin!Thank you very much."
Okarin: "So what about you?Do you have enough dating experience to talk down to me?"
*Kursu's Realization*
Okarin: "See?"
Lmao at dat scene and how Daru was just playing a eroge as this is all happening.

"Screw all you normalfags!" Daru and his 3D girl,lol.

Dat awkward date.Real date with Hououin Kyouma commences.

Ruka remembers when she first met Okarin.I'm guessing just spend alot of time with Okarin will make them remember their memories from other worldlines on their own?She returns to be a girl.Actually like this episode better than Feyris's.

man i feel so bad for ruka, still liking him even after she turns back into a guy.

i can't decide if i'd want for him to remember his memories from when he was a girl or not.
"Urushibara Ruka. The mannerisms and voice of a woman... No... More feminine than any woman. But he's a guy. Taller than Mayuri, but so very thin... But he's a guy. Looks great in a miko outfit... But he's a guy. It's already twilight And yet, it's so hot. The cicadas are crying. But... He's a guy."

I feel so sad for Ruka having to hide his feelings when he's a guy (well, Okabe will still remember but still, Ruka can't really act on it). What Okabe said was really nice but still, it must suck for Ruka! It's awful how so far everyone has had to sacrifice something pretty big to undo their D-mail.

Okabe is definitely going into my favorites after watching this episode. No matter how flamboyant he acts, he proves to be a really good guy in the end. Really emotional episodes for the past few. Especially number 13 and 14.

Too much moe romance for my taste. I wanted more story from the anime.
Well it should have been expected from the visual novel's adaptation.

Responding to the deleted post:

In my definition moe means everything that is intentionally too sweet. I'd call "normal" romance something more realistic.
And by the adaptation I meant that visual novels generally have romance routes with different girls and even just a small bonus ending is rewarding. You can't have the same thing in the anime, so I don't really see a point of having as much romance with ton of girls.

Yeah I deleted it, because I felt like I was picking a fight or something :'D If that felt like it, then sorry, didn't mean it :P
I round Ruka's feeling genuine, but I see what you mean now :) Though, the thing with Ruka was actually not really a seperate route. Everything you see here happened in the VN as well. The things that were cut (the "endings") were "what if Okabe didn't send the reversing D-mail".

Well, it's nice to have a funny and refreshing episode like this one. Okarin without lab coat! Wow!
I feel a bit sorry for Rukaku. But I'm happy about their date. It was awkward but nice. And Rukaku anyways is cuter than most of girls, even if he's a guy.

So.. The last one. The hardest of them all.
I have a bad feeling about this.

Ahhhh, I'm not about to make a long post about it here because I just got done ranting about it to my friend for some 20 minutes, but I realized what's going on with this anime. It feels like it's trying to bridge slice of life with some kind of adventure/thriller. Like, Mayuri is some two days or something away from being killed again and the entire episode just feels like it's been pulled out of some goofy slice of life series. It kind of breaks the build up to switch its atmosphere like that. I'm still loving this series, but I think that might be kind of keeping me from enjoying it as much as I could.

Nice episode overall though. The date was so embarrassing it was difficult to watch. Having to talk about the weather on your date... yikes.

Ah nothing more riveting than a episode dedicated to a stupid unnecessary date and literally changing the tone from serious to lighthearted constantly and in a heartbeat after all that's happened in the last few episodes.
Also gotta love how Kurisu went back to being a annoying,condescending bitch again.

This fucking overrated series....

Okarin and Ruka go for a date, while Kurisu and Daru are watching them.
So Ruka has feelings for Okarin after all, and wants to be a girl to love him.
I'm proud he becomes "his real self" so that the date will be successful.
This episode is awesome. :D

Nice of Okarin to go back and to have a real date even after he got the number for her mom. I like how after Okarin sent the D-mail to make sure that Ruka was a guy again he didn't just straight up ask if he was a guy or a girl to avoid the embarrassment and to keep the mood serious. We're at .52 now, we're getting closer to 1 slowly but it's happening.

Kurisu and Okabe so funny this episode ^^ poor Rukako though :c
Hope it doesn't end up with killing Kurisu with all these mail reversals ;-;
Kurisu so jealous :3, nice seeing her giving him clothes and "chaining" him haha.
Daru so funny and to think he'll have children ^^
Great series so far.

I hope so very much that somebody made a gif of that brief scene after Ruka ran up the stairs.
Haha, "This is a nice restaurant, do you go here often?" // "No." . . . (long silence)
That message as a prank seems unreliable, they're assuming a lot that it will work. I would say something along "whoops, got those mixed up", or so, but I'm just nitpicking.

Just about the only non-tense episode so far. even in comparison with last episode, Ruka's scenario was easier to solve than Feyris's.

Did anybody forget this is harem?
That date was awfully hilarious!

Mayuri is not proven to die in that timeline. It might be assumed her death is delayed, but we are not told how much... 90 year delay would be a pretty good life expectancy... we just don't know.

I guess this is similar to many anime in terms of helping out numerous girls, however in s;g there are consequences associated.

So awkward, was fun.

Ruka is the best trap ever. I wish he kept his feelings for Rintarou even as a guy. Otherwise, great episode. All of this is for Mayuri... Okabe, you better save her or else, it's all gonna be pointless, if not worse.
