| That banana experiment was freaky! But the plot is quite hard to follow sometimes. |
| I am not a weeb, I simply enjoy 2D girls |
| Makise Kurisu has come. |
| They introduced the branched timeline theory. Which makes my guess that this is the timeline that if Makise didn't die more convincing. Makise suddenly know Okabe's whereabouts. What a stalker. |
| He who smiles in a crisis has found someone to blame. |
| That banana experiment made my jaw drop a little ngl... |
| Best girl will always be Ruka....but never forget he is a guy...but he is still very feminine...but he is a guy....but so slender.... |
 |
| Giving this one a 4. Better than the first; if only because the comedy was toned down a bit. I get it was to setup the characters and it worked, but it wasn't my favorite, honestly. It's still weird and confusing, but it's starting to line up and I'm on board to see where it's going from here. Hasn't entirely won me over, but it's on the right track. That new girl with the glasses; aloof and weird, she was intriguing. I want to know more. Kiryu something, I believe. (Only remember that thanks to S-CRY-ed) |
| Life can be cruel and unfair. At worst it can traumatize and cripple you. The desire for wanting things to return to the way they were can cost everything and changes nothing. The best way is to keep moving forward, struggle on. Anger can be powerful but can only get you so far. Let people into your life even if some of them leave you in time. Fight. Like. Hell. For everything and everyone you love. Always. |
| An interesting episode with a interesting twist at the end! Im excited to see how this twist will play out! |
| Oof. I did not like the first two episodes at all. I thought they were pretty bad, I found the characters to be quite annoying. The only characters that I really like are the otaku and Mayuri. The very ending of this episode got me interested, though, so I'll stick it out. Kurisu is a mysterious individual, and in an acceptable enough way to keep me watching with Flint Lockwood's antics. Ruka is pretty attractive. |

Steins;Gate is known to have a slow start so that's to be expected, I didn't liked the first couple of episodes that much either when I watched it but don't let the first couple of episodes fool you, that's simply the build up, once the build up is done then Steins;Gate will get amazing. I’m glad I go to this forum to read some thoughts coz I’m actually planning to drop this anime after the first episode but I still give it a try. And though I still find it “slow” after this episode, that part when Okabe searched about John Titor and that last scene is pretty interesting enough to still give it a shot. Hopefully I will not get bored before all this build up is done. |

Hopefully I will not get bored before all this build up is done. Don't drop it, the buildup in Steins;Gate is a bit slow so that's normal, a couple of my friends also planned on dropping it and I convinced them to keep watching it and after they finished it Steins;Gate became their favorite anime to date. That being said, I feel the need to remind you about something important here, there are some people out there that likes to give a pretty bad watching order and trust me, their suggestion will degrade your experience with Steins;Gate. People watching Steins;Gate for the first time needs to finish watching this anime (all 24 episodes) and ONLY THEN you can watch the OVA which are episode 25 and episode 23beta and THEN you can jump to Steins;Gate 0. Ignore any other suggestion from people because their suggestion will completely kill the climax of this anime. This should be the order you should watch it: Steins;Gate 01-24 > Steins;Gate Ova 25 > Steins;Gate Movie > Steins;Gate Ova 23beta > Steins;Gate 0. (The Movie is non-canon but it's still pretty enjoyable) Thanks for the suggestion! Saves me from doing my research hehehe. I will still give it a shot and maybe take it slow as well. |
| Ruka is not a woman, but it is actually a guy?! :o |
| Honestly after not watching anime for quite some time I’m glad I decided to pick it up again and watch this (although I must admit my mind is beyond confused right now!!!). Plus I can’t stop laughing at “Hououin-san”. |
| Things really make sense when you've gone through the story once |
| Based Certified. I love anime armpits. |
AlexanderHD said: Minor pet peeve of mine is harems and/or non-harems with a large female/babe cast. These past two episodes really felt like they were trying to introduce us to a bunch of sexy anime girls for the sake of having a large hot-chick ensemble and nothing more -- and so the viewer can 'enjoy' the MC interacting with different chicks in different scenarios. It's really just the male lead, his nerd friend, maybe the landlord, and that's it -- cue the dozen chicks, and one boy-that-looks-like-a-chick. Idk. You know, its source material is a visual novel, and this was a pretty common thing in them at the time it was released (2009) (I mean tgat there are many female characters and only 1 or 2 males). This doedn't make something harem, btw. |

| Well, the ending was kinda scary with the soundtrack lols. So the banana teleported back to where it was after the Phone Microwave thingy was used. (still confused) It went back in time, and whenever something is sent back in time it can't come back in its original state I guess? Aside from that, comedy is amazing. Love Rin's personality and Mayuri's VA. Our red haired girl is back again.. |

| It’s attached it’s like the bannna itself went to the past before it was picked |
 |
| So we got a trap, a gel banana that had been teleported based on Kyouma, Makise (she's like a tsundere) well she's fond of degrading Kyouma. Btw I couldn't say that the banana go back in time because the banana just got restored on its place but it looks weird maybe there is some sort of side-effects well so far I'm still trying to comprehend with this and the last episode, I hope I'd get more clarified about what's happening after I watch the next episode |
| Its a trap a cute one too lol And teleporting banana |
 |
| I still have no idea what's going on. Really like it so far but the only downside is the headaches I'm getting watching this so far trying to comprehend what's going on |

taflinder said: unlike the last episode I actually wanted to keep watching this one. Really interesting twist at the end. And Ruka is a girl!? IF THERE'S A HOLE THERE'S A GOAL He is called Luka, and he is a boy |
| - |
| Seriously!? They really left out the best voice line in the entire VN... Miyano Mamoru calling after a missing banana is absolute comedy gold. My disappointment is immeasurable, and my day is ruined. |
| this is getting even more interesting, Kurisu going all out to disprove Rintarou's claims on time machines, kinda confused but really interesting at the same time. Ruka is a cute guy and I loved the maids at the restaurant. Anyways, it seems that the concepts of parallel worlds have to do with the mystery behind Kurisu's death and Rintarou's situation, along with the books and fame on John Titor? Moeka is possibly searching for an old PC and the experiment with the banana was really interesting, being bundled with the other bananas while being a gel-bana. I'm already captivated by this anime, especially with the cliffhanger. |

| none of this makes any sense to me :))) and they are introducing a lot of characters very quickly :))) but i'm rolling with it! there are hints of something interesting under the surface so i shall see! makise kurisa seems cool though |
