Mizuka's final words might have been a F U! Such a sad death couldn't stop crying when Kai was trying to get the robo legs off, hope Subaru is doing well, can't wait for the next ep Chiyomaru creates his characters only for the sole purpose that he can kill them in the most awful ways possible. >:3 Are you sure it's the doing of Sawada and Misaki? Though all evidences point to them as the legs are a product of Exoskeleton and was given by Misaki in the first place, it's way too obvious! It's a conspiracy, isn't it? :3 And i'm sure Mr. Pleiades will be fine. Nothing can ever defeat the great Mr. Pleiades! ]:3 Rinso said: Kansokusha said: In Chaos;Head In Chaos;Head it was Toryanse, not Kagome. They're easy to confuse.

| I know it was supposed to get darker, but somehow I felt it kinda slow and rushed. |
| "They decided to launch a rocket after five years." Yeah that doesn't sound suspicious or anything, and they decided this when the Robot was being built. Also HOLY SHIT |

Amarrez said: Intereo said: I know it was supposed to get darker, but somehow I felt it kinda slow and rushed. What. Slow? Yes. Rushed? Kind of. The length of the original material is that of Chaos;Head and Steins;Gate combined. S;G anime got 24 episodes, yet R;N only got 22. Plus they have already cut the whole Nae arc. |

| This series took such a long time for things to pick up pace that I was not prepared for something this tragic and dark to happen. I wish we got to know Mizuka a lot more though. I felt the scene could have had more impact if the episode concentrated on her a bit more. I don't really know much about her besides her relation to Kimijima Kou, Misaki, and the fact she makes Kai eat those weird red buns. The episode could have been a bit more focused (without giving too much away) or at least gave her a bit more screen time throughout the series instead of more of the slow boring robot-building scenes. Still, that last scene was probably the most haunting one I've seen in a while (I thought Psycho Pass was the only current running anime that can shock and haunt me like this)...with the legs just moving on their own and Kai's desperate attempt gone to waste. The show seemed so slice-of-life (besides hints of conspiracy and Kona's attempted suicide) up to this point that it only increased the shock value when such a scene happens (I thought Kai would save her). ._. *Sigh* This week of anime... Perhaps my order should've been Psycho Pass>>Robotics;Notes>>Kotoura-san to end in a happier note. |

| HOLY SHIT, this episode! Gun-Pro 2 supposedly fell on Subaru but the most crazy part was Mizuka's robotic legs going out of control. The spine crack and spitting out blood was so realistic it was scary. Oh my god, Mizuka died right in front of Kai too. Seeing Kai screaming and all shocked was heartbreaking. This episode was so emotional, fuck! Best episode by far, beats episode 14 by a mile and I really liked that one. I knew Robotics;Notes' 2nd half would get serious but didn't expect it to get this serious. Love this show! <3 |

| ....awwww yEHAHHH?????!!!! LEYYYYGOOOO MIND, IT'S TIME, TO BE BLOWN! either she's been hacked by that girl's sister or... kaijima kou or w/e his name is is alive! and he or some spirit didnt want her intervening with kai's search for them reports, so they dispose of her someone give me a spoiler quick |

| SHIT JUST GOT REAL |
   |
| Too much plot determined stupidity for one episode. Ok- let's troubleshoot this barely functional robot in bad weather with uncertain controllers. Ok- let me warn you about digging into this conspiracy, while I ignore the the more immediate threat of conspiracy myself. He had her suplexed- she was in the turtle position- Why let go? Do robots give up? Apparently they have antigrav- but whatever. Also- no sense going for the batteries- no way they'd design that thing with easy replacement. Ah well 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'. |

| The shows getting real good now. I thought everyone was a little slow to react though, Kai stood there for the most part and Subura didn't even try to get out of the way when he had so much time. I thought the supplex was a good idea but the legs just cracked her spine, maybe he should have tried to carry her like a bride. |

| SHE DIED? WTF! the moment i was happy cause Gun-Pro 2 is working well and than SHE DIED? I hope that none of the characters died, and no more sad story for R;N! |
AiCon said: MyAmy said: That ending. Wow!bastek66 said: ;_; We will miss you Miizukasan T_T !! It was an unbelievable ending... I was constantly hoping that Kai would be able to do something about it  |
 |
| What a shocking death, that spine crack made me cringe so bad. And walking the robot in windy conditions was just a scene that had this inherent tension in it. What an episode. |
 |
| STAHP DOIN THIS ROBOTICS;NOTES QQ WHY YU DO THIS TO ME. |
 |
| Okay, I didn't expect THAT. I was quite literally screaming at the screen for Kai to move and tackle her or something. And then the thing with the spine...powerful scene I must say. 4/5 I wonder where they'll go from here. Quite the gadget though, intelligent OS enough to realize/see where to go to kill the owner. |
| Cracking sound was so disturbing. Probably scariest death of this year so far. |
 |
| Another amazing ep and great use of OST, upping the show to 9/10 lol. |
bastek66 said: Cracking sound was so disturbing. Probably scariest death of this year so far. Nice gif there. That scene reminds me how those creepy crimson head zombies raise from death in resident evil remake. ;_; |
|
| Man, what a turn of event. Wonder how Kai will change after witnessing that. I hope Subaru didn't die, |
 |
| wow. so the only other relatively major character that i really liked, apart from aki, got killed off. great. |
| Great episode...probably the best one yet... |
Tensho said: What a shocking death, that spine crack made me cringe so bad. Yeah me too, and I suddenly held my spine when I saw this scene. Same with Psycho-Pass, this week's episode also left me speechless. And that robot falling to Subaru, I hope he's okay. I think the suit got malfunctioned since she answered the mysterious call. But what's with that unknown number? Can't wait to find out. |

| Eh, I was sort of toned out in the first half to appreciate what they tried to do in the second. Couldn't get into it at all. :( 2/5 |
| Mizuka T___T and no nonononononononono, Subaru baby nooooooooooooooooo. He must be alive damnit. He must ;___; Âs expected, Kai´s VA did an excellent job in voicing despair. |

| Wow....................................... |
Hydnlife said: Wow....................................... exactly :/ |
 |
| I need to watch feel good anime after watching the last part T_T buffering Tamako market right now T_T |
| Holy shit! This intense feeling...! |
 |
| Kai is really damn slow when Mizuka leg go berserk.He should act faster and try to change the direction of Mizuka's legs to buy some times instead of stopping the leg since he know he cant stop them...........and hope Subaru is ok...... |
| Signature Removed |
| Woooow, I was completely blown away from this episode. It started so happy and they got really far with their robot. And then it seemed that something bad happened to Subaru and in the end Mizuka dies. What the hell O_O I can't wait for the next episode! |
| As a lover of robots, this episode really hits me hard.... ouch.... |

| Holy crap what an intense episode. |
| DOUBLE KILL! Anyways moving on given I jumped to the other sources of this to see how it ends, I have to say even while knowing how it should end, this show still has surprises and what the hell is going on momments. Though I have to say not one of the better eps. |
bastek66 said: ;_; :'( |
 |
| Wow that was really sad Mizuka! |
| Mizuka!!!! Subaru!!! Noo!!! What a traumatic event for Kai T__T |
| Dayum, a lot of stuff happened at the end of this episode, leaving us with two major cliffhangers. I believe from this point, the show is just going to get better and better. Part two of this season has become really dark. Poor Mizuka and Mister Pleidas. ;_; |
 |
| Who dead bodies or only one?.. I guess only one... OR NONE! |
 |
| We finally got the brutal turning point but FUUUUUUUU I FREAKED OUT AT THE SPINE PART. Like seriously, my ears still hear the cracking/breaking. Dammit, Mizuka-saaaaan ;A; Also, Subaruuuuuuuuuuuuu ;A; Please, no no no no no. AWESOME EPISODE. I got carried away. |
This is how Subaru will avoid the falling robot next week. Seeing and hearing Mizuka's spine crack was horrible, that made me cringe and made my spine feel weird. It was one of those horrible deaths that Kaito had to stand there and watch happen, he did everything he could she was far to heavy to keep lifted because of the exoskeleton legs. Both Psycho-Pass and Robotics;Notes were really good this week both should only get better and better from now. Robotics notes has been a bit slow to get going but it should pay off now, Kona's episodes and Airi's episode were pretty good Junna's were shit so i hope for it to get better and better now. I would like to read the Robotics;Notes notes visual novel but it is not in english, which is to bad. Though i do need to read Steins;Gate and ChäoS;HEAd visual novels anyway i should get around to that. |
