This was one of the heavier episodes emotional. For some reason I was feeling scared for Kurisu because she was all alone at the lab when this was going on.

She's quite clearly been psychologically conditioned (brain washed)...
FB may not even exist at all and may just be part of her programming.

I know people still hate Moeka for killing Mayuri, but come on. This Moeka didn't kill anyone (yet), and I feel that cheering on Okarin punching her and saying that she would die like a piece of garbage is uncalled for. I felt really sorry for her.

WOOOOT,

That was awesome, I love how Okabe raped punched Moeka :D

That was intense, but we all know that FB stands for Facebook

Due to what Okarin has gone through I would say that he's become more ruthless compared to how he was at the beginning of the series

This episode was so crazy and intense. I felt like Okabe deserved the chance to deck the crap out of Shining Finger, though at the point she's obviously a total wreck.

I still think we're on track to Okabe having to undo the very first D-mail that saved Kurisu's life. All this talk of "You're not alone you still have me" is just sealing my conviction. I won't mind being pleasantly surprised though.

On a different subject: I'm thinking of making the Steins;gate opening theme my next piano arrangement project. any thoughts?

There's already a piano version on the net

Am I the only one after seeing this episode hoping Okabe was gonna fuck her to make her snap out of her crazy devotion for FB? Definitely feel bad for her now, all she needs was somewhere to belong, and she didn't get that from Okabe, so she was alone. The first timeline before the D-mail, she had a place to be within the Lab, and probably wouldn't have joined FB. Poor child, I'd take her home alright, and give her the power of the penis of righteousness.

I love my Tsundere Kurisu, but I can see a Moeka X Okabe pairing. Damn, this guy gets ALL the girls in this story.

This episode got more than one "FUCK YEAH" out of me. I have no sympathy for that psycho-bitch (although I don't agree that he should've raped and/or killed her. She absolutely DOES NOT deserve that, and Okabe would never do that, seriously, have you even been paying attention to the kind of person he is?). This episode also did start to make me think that it really is going to come down to Mayuri vs. Kurisu, and sadly I'm fairly certain Kurisu is gonna have to take one for the team. But, who knows? It wouldn't be the first time this show has surprised me.

Honestly I'm quite disappointed with the fact that Moeka was just a socially

challenged girl. That just means there is no physical representation of the

enemy except for two letters. My only hope is that they will actually begin to

"fight" the enemy before the series ends. But really... we're going with the

"they gave me a purpose" character choice? I wonder how the hell and why the

hell, the supposed masters of the future chose a psychologically challenged

emo girl off the streets to conduct their master plan. Oh and as for reliving

the 48 hours... isn't it Okabe's fault it took him so long to realize it

wasn't working? Oh and, he could just travel back before he punched her

anyway.

Cause a psychologically challenged emo girl was a easy pawn to use without them even questioning anything.

She just needed purpose, and got it the WRONG way because Okabe forgot to make her join the lab again once he did that D mail. Once all of the lab members didn't know Moeka, that's when shit start going bad.

she is not very comfortable in talking face to face with human,hard to cure I guess. Moeka did spam mail to Okabe but Okabe only answer 1/10 of her mail.So,I don't think Okabe can handle such girl, she mail to Okabe even its in close distant. FB is truly very patient in replying Moeka .Her handphone history is full of FB's mail lol.

edit:FB is not face book lol

Hey, they found people willing to be jellified through an unstable time machine. I thought perhaps they would be well staffed enough to send in professionals. Those other guys in the ski masks (during the raid) aren't all necessarily emo too are they? I personally thought that an emo girl would be a risky person to place your world designs on is all.

Two words: absolute loyalty. You can't buy loyalty like that.

About finding people willing to be jellified: there will almost always be a person desperate enough for your purpose. Almost always.

Okabe is way too badass to put up with Shining Finger's bullshit. The gif above proves that. Seriously, "I WILL FIGHT THE WORLD"? Great character or greatest character?

Thanks for the second GIF. I laughed my ass off! x'D

This was an epic episode. Okabe reminds me of Homura from Madoka. Both get tired of the countless deaths of a close person. Dont want to know how mach pain Okabe felt.

Moeka looks kinda cool without glasses. And it was a lil bit weird that the old woman thought they were a couple. lol

But I dont have any clues who the fuck FB is. I guess its someone from the Lab or the future Moeka. Dunno

Such an intense episode. It seriously feels like it only lasted like, 5 minutes. Okabe knows how to kick some ass.

Psycho bitch finally gets what she deserves, though you have to feel just a little sorry for her. Her life literally depends on this FB person. Sadly she'd do anything for him/her just to keep herself alive. Kinda sad. But c'mon, Okabe went through some tough times, so he has a right to vent out. He just wants to save his childhood friend, that's all. To find that he's dealing with the person who killed her, of course he's gonna give her hell, no matter how much her life sucks.

It is ironic how "FB" takes over Moeka's need for a social life and guides her every waking moment ... I'm sure that's no accident, but I'm sure FB's a real person as well. It would make no sense if Facebook became self-aware and started mind-controling busty emo girls.

I should probably stop being surprised that girls that look as good as Moeka exist who are somehow utterly rejected by anime society ... she was hot this episode, and Okabe was all GRRR ALPHA MALE >XD Shining Finger totally needed the punch to the face and the kick to the head, she was quite willing to kill someone she didn't know (in this timeline) or even die to make someone she'd never met happy. There's crazy and there's CRAZY, and she's the one with the caps lock.

Okabe seemed more sinister than I'd ever seen him before, tearing down Moeka's Id and stomping all over her soul like that. Not that she didn't deserve it! And it worked, since she told him where the IBN was. Now he doesn't need to undo this D-Mail? And why can't he undo this one, anyways? Is his Reading Steiner malfunctioning since he's been activating it in the others? God this show's so damn amazing, best of the f'ing year /fanboy

The picture from the VN is really weird ... there it doesn't look like she's struggling at all, and she's just completely dead inside. Usually that's kinda hot, but with her it's just creepy. Especially since she still seems deadly aware of what's going on, she just doesn't give two damns ...

Speaking of, I gotta concur with users above ... Okabe totally looked like he was raping Moeka, not making out with her :P Granted, from my experience with Japanese porn, they ALWAYS sound like they're being raped, so maybe she figured it was a kinky 'non-con' sex game. Honestly, the two of them did kinda make a hot, crazy, angry couple this episode, LOL. Guess we did get a bit of relationship flag with her ;) I wonder if Moeka's ending is up on YouTube ... I won't go looking yet tho, because it probably contains spoilers about FB. I have a guess who it might be, but I'll be surprised if it's true.

I don't think that his Reading Steiner isn't working. I would think that he simply underestimated Moeka as a whole. Seems only a message from FB could make her believe that the IBN 5100 isn't at the shrine. Crazy bitch she is.

Well with the fan service of Moeka in the spoiler
of whom you see a black bra, for quite daring in her color choosing, some cleavage and quite well the round shape of her breasts. Yeah put it in.

However my RAGE is at following,

simply because I have a amazing GIF to stare at only to see moments later of that event Okabe kissing Moeka? WTF? I know the logic and reasoning behind it but Okabe got a nasty lip bite in the spoiler
along with a rather strange provocative dripping on Moeka's chest. This episode was really well directed no doubt however its major appeal is the fans of Moeka.

At least when I did the GIF I was thinking "After all the shit Moeka has done to Mayurii and the tears for her, I am fucking happy she got that punch/kick. I am damn fucking happy she suffered and cried out. Most of all I am damn happy justice was done in one form." Something along those lines.

Well, I think we just saw it... Bloody and forceful, really passionate kiss...

Jokes aside, I think that he was too cruel to her. I understand why he hates her so much, but it was just too much. And I'm not talking about him punching and kicking her, what he said to her was just too cruel. That she will commit suicide four days later, alone and abandoned, that she will never hear anything from FB... It's just too much...

Yes, Tennouji Nae is the secret mastermind behind everything :|

Anyway, didn't I tell you guys Kyouma was a boss? He handles his 1v1's.

Also, I don't know why Okabe doesn't just send himself a D-Mail telling himself not to tell Moeka whence he borrowed the IBN. That would prevent her from knowing where it was, and therefore nullify her D-Mail.

It doesn't matter if the recipient of a dmail believes the message, only that the message has a significant effect on the timeline. For example I could send you a message saying that you've won a million dollars and while you might ignore it as junk it could set in motion a series of events which made minor changes to your daily routine and over a long enough span influenced others who you come in contact with. Even the simple act of you getting the message and having to hit the delete button could have broad implications on a worldline depending on what you do or don't do next. In Moeka's case, she's been conditioned to pretty much only respond to SERN's orders and she's a social recluse, as such even messages from herself may have limited impact.
