| The Okarin and Kurisu interactions were very entertaining. |
| Armageddon was yesterday, today we have a problem. |
| there are many people i know called me |
"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." |
| Great episode as per usual. I'm really intrigued on how the story is going to play out from here now that they've got their hands on the IBN 5100. Onto the next episode! |

This show just gets better and better...I have no clue why people found the first 10 episodes "boring" for some reason I am loving them...the characters are really interesting. first 10?? I thought it was supposed to get good after 6 eps... Yeah this show is pretty boring so far I don't find any of the characters likeable but I do find most of them annoying. People like me probably think its boring because they're probably not into slice of life. Also this show is barely funny. boy if this show continues to be lame I'm gonna go back to trusting my own judgement, and not watching a show that doesn't sound interesting regardless of how "critically acclaimed" it is. |
| Love and Peace!!! |
| Things r getting interesting. |
  |
| Pretty funny with Okari and Makise arguing with each other. |

Man, I think I have a new boy-girl-crush. He's magnificent. |
| This episode is a shining example of why I always watch this show in English: the dub script is brilliant. Compare. Subtitles: Mr. Braun:"Why do I get all the weirdos?" Dub script: Mr. Braun: "You'd think I had a sign on my back that said "INSERT CRAZY HERE"... Subtitles: Okabe:"We must complete our quest before they do!" Dub script: Okabe:"We must realize our goal of global dominion before the upstarts cut us off at the pass!" Subtitles: Makise: "You're the last person I want to hear that from." Dub script: Makise: "Why hello Kettle, my name is Pot." (S-NAP!) Subtitles: Okabe: "I'm getting you back, you should reflect on your thoughtless actions." Dub script: Okabe: "I believe in street argo the phrase is 'payback's a bitch'." (S-NAP again) Subtitles: Okabe: Makise? I don't remember a Makise. Where did we meet? Paris? London? Makise: Akihabara. Okabe: What? It's my assistant? Just say "Christina". Dub script: Okabe: Me who? I know a lot of people by that name. Though I have to say, you remind me of someone I once knew in Paris. Makise: You're like the most impossible human being I've ever met. Okabe: Could it be my errant assistant? Or did you change your name from Christina? Subtitles: Makise: I can't do this backwards! Okabe: You can do it assistant! Dub script: Makise: I can't be FACING backwards, genius. Okabe (mockingly): Sure you can, I believe in you! And many more. |

Normally I'd advise against rewriting the whole script unless you have the writing chops to make it as good as it was in the first place. Usually they don't, but in this case they did and it just works too well for me to criticize it for not being the same. The dub script has a flow to the dialogue the subtitles just don't have because they're translations of the Japanese script. |

What, is it so off-putting it makes you cringe or something? Well I don't like change. I mean not in everything or everywhere, it's just that I don't like when something that I love is altered in any way. Especially when I feel like that it's unnecessary since the original is already great as it is :/ It is completely all right if you like it that way. I'm just stating how I like it :P |

| I've been putting off this show for awhile. Everyone says it's amazing, but now that I'm watching it I find it kind of boring and uneventful. Please tell me it gets more interesting that this... |

Please tell me it gets more interesting that this... Yes, yes it does. Especially around the half mark. A lot of people didn't like the first half (not me personally, as I found it great), but it's a necessary build-up. Keep watching, you won't regret it ;) (at least I hope so, but people like that are rare) Edit: Nevermind I see you are alreay watching more. Please continue if you see this :) |

I'm starting to see why everyone sings it's praise |
| I should have counted the times I yawned while watching this episode. |
alpir said: I should have counted the times I yawned while watching this episode. Watch it until episode 10 or 11, if you still think it's not good, then there will be nothing can change your mind. Actually there so much little detail in this build up that can make things interesting if you pay attention to it. |

It's just I found this episode boring for the most part with all the pointless talking and running around. |

| Can someone explain that christina joke to me? |
 |
RevolverSnake said: Can someone explain that christina joke to me? Japanese people say Christina with their syllables as Kurisutiina (クリスティーナ). So it was a pun on Kurisu's name by Okabe. And Kurisu keeps saying that the "-tina" is not needed. |

I didn't find this episode as boring as most others did here. I liked it quite well, actually. That said, I wouldn't really place this series higher than a 7.5 or so at the moment. I'm counting on things getting better like everyone says it will. |

| Looks like Mayuri is imitating the Odd Life of Timothy Green. |
| "Let Justice Be Done!" My Theme Fight again, fight again for justice! |
| Very little happened here, but I actually like it a lot, so I'm eager to go on. |
| First episode that I actually enjoyed watching of the series... I feel like a lot of the stuff before hand was stuff that probably needed to happen to develop the plot for the future episodes. I'm sure that will keep happening I hear it really gets interesting after around episode 8. Will definitely watch this series through Maybe these first few episodes end up being more interesting after a re-watch when you know the plot more |
| This episode was slower than the others. I didn't really care for this one but at least now we have the IBN 5100. I want to see what Titor looks like and how he's going to use the IBN 5100 to hack SERN. |
 |
| i guess it was a bad idea to start watching the first 4 episodes and then put it on hold for 5 months had to rewatch this one because there was no cliffhanger nice episode |
| So much win Okarin x Kurisu-tina ^^ "G-BACK plan" LMAO. Looking forward to see how thing'll turn out. Ruka cute indeed xD |
 |
| I have this feeling that Kurisu's dad is the time traveler. |
 |
| (rewatching) Okabe's and Kurisu's interactions are hilarious. How interesting, someone left the IBN 5100 there 10 years ago (2010 - 10 = 2000) ... interesting indeed... |

| they finally got the computer! Mikise and kyouma sure are bonding in a unique way :3 I wonder what her father did and why she is so against time travel. We will probably find out soon |
[center] *>.>[Spoiler][/spoiler]<.<* [center] |
| I just love the interactions between kurisu and kyouma :3 |

| Damn missed that phone call. I regret it now. |
| hhhmmm, looks like the plot is getting thicker. |
| The afternoon has gently passed me by The evening spreads its sail against the sky Waiting for tomorrow Just another day God bid yesterday goodbye... |
| welp, they finally found the PC |
| As soon as he started talking I knew he would lose. |
| Oh shit! I just realized that Okabe is Isaac from Baccano!! Also ZOMG!!! Ruka's dad is Shinya Kogami!!! |
| Okay, so they got the IBN 5100 now? Let's get that meaning of that email codes! I'm dying to know! >~< |
| So... Could John Titor be Okarin? Since if Titor really is the first "time traveller" then Okarin should be Titor cause he found the time machine. |
 |
| Rewatching. So. Someone knew someday someone would be searching for the IBN 5100, and left it at the Yanabayashi Shrine with this knowledge. This mysterious person could be referring to exactly Okabe? This happened back in the 2000, year in which John Titor (the one from Beta world lines) travelled back to from 2036, but not in this world line (Alpha), where apparently 2010 is the only year in which he travelled to. And, the person who donated it of course he actually had it, and I think Titor never said that he had it. So, I don't think it was Titor. And. Titor, until now, seems the only one who can actually time-travel, while SERN has created a time-machine, they don't seem to actually succeeded on sending someone in the past (Humand is Dead), and the time machine developed by Okabe and Co. only sends text messages to the past, so by exclusion the one who donated the IBN 5100 was someone who always stayed in this worldline(s). He had the computer, he knew (maybe) the future events (Personal experience? Or he/she was told?) and donated it. Maybe the future's Okabe did. |
| I wonder if the woman who had taken pictures of Okabe has some kind of relation with John Titor as she had wanted him to identify what turned out to be an IBN 5100. I like the chemistry between Okabe and Kurisu. |
   |
| Did John Titor leave the computer for him? Or maybe he himself? CHRIS-TINA! Haha. |
  |
 Has no one shipped Ruka and Kurisu yet??? That scene was adorable. Doesn't matter Ruka's gender. He's actually adorable as a guy. That scene couldn't have made me feel any gushier than it did. secretly curious on how ruka felt about the compliment though |
