Also, this helps to clear up a lot of things. FEYRIS IS NOT SUZUHA'S MOM!!!?????


Of course not. She's never had a thing for Daru.

and they didn't have to put the kiss in the end. That's the exact same scene that happened on their kissing scene in the lab in the TV series.


^This, for all of you complaining. And they even used the same background music as in episode 22.

Nice ending and episode in general. Liked the moment between Okarin & Kurise. But I think the score is way too high here on MAL.

Amazing special; everything i could have asked for; really liked the moments between Okabe and Kurisu, and for people who are complaining about the kiss not being shown, how much of implication do you need; it happened the exact same way it did with their first kiss, same music, same words "close your eyes" as long as we know it happens all is good; its not like we never saw them kiss before. I like how they sealed up the relationships, we get to see Daru future wife and Suzuha's mom, we seal up Okabe and Kurisu so it ended really well; i like how this special was different from the norm, just like the series; I've had enough specials at hot springs or beach so this was refreshing in that sense and was awesome just like the series was 10/10.

are they gonna do an anime adaptation of the manga material they have?

this special seems like a prelude to Suzuha and Daru meeting for the first time at the convention

anyways great episode.

I loved it. It was filled with so much win. And with the subtitles I've read they said "Fail, Fuck, and Faggot". That made me smile. :D

That's how an OVA is supposed to be. No fan service crap for the 100th time, just the usual, godly Steins;Gate humour.

So glad to see the cast again, especially Okabe and his weird jokes. "I am mad scientist. United States. Chaos! And Invade!" xD
And kudos to the last scene with Kurisu's "Close your eyes." So lovely.

Now there's only the movie left to look forward to. It'll be a sad day to see such an awesome series reaching its' end.

Very solid addition. Actually added to the story rather than being pointless. Great humor, with a few powerful, serious scenes too. Kind of disappointed by Mayuri's lack of lines. =/

Likin' it.

Awesome episode. Covered a bunch of things, still keeping the comedy, the romance, the characters. Amazing how it felt completed in 20 minutes while whole series take half the episodes to develop anything. Eagerly awaiting for the movie.

Perfect, except....


WHITE FOX Y U NO GIVE ANY TUTTURUUUUUUU~~~~~

9/10 (no, it's not that I cancel 10 because of the lack of tutturu....
...maybe...)

But still, solid 5/5 and a perfect epilogue for the series.



And here, compilation of all tutturuu~ for those who missed them.

So... something like Rurouni Kenshin: Trust and Betrayal wouldn't get a 10 from people who don't give OVAs 9? Personally, a 9 is a general 10 in my book but 10's are reserved for my personal favorites.

But! On topic... it really summed everything up, perfectly. An OVA like this is more than a cherry on top for watching Steins;Gate. After it finished I felt it was necessary to watch. That it was really episode 25. That feeling is one of a kind.

This special was really good! I completely forgot that in the world line they are now in they didn't retain their memories, or rather they simply think of them as "dreams".

Plenty of comedy still(Lol'd at how Okabe got arrested twice) and laughed at how all the guys were staring at Ruka and said "He's a guy but we don't care!!"

Then of course the best of all was how even in this world line we see that Okabe and Kurisu end up together. Hence the end where Okabe confesses his love once again and she responds saying "close your eyes" where if you remember she says the exact same thing in the TV series when she kisses him.


All in all a very good solid special.

That was such a perfect extra episode. Just go there and make everything necessary so the fans can be happy. Apart from the nitpickers. xP

That ending was perfect, cliffhanger and all but c'mon, we all know what that "close your eyes" meant to that tsundere! And to make the screen black right after that, genius (I love that song!)

I didn't know such a short epi could make me so happy. XDDDDDD

Well I picked a great time to start and finish Steins;Gate haha. I literally watched the whole series in the first half of this week, and this special felt like a true episode 25.

As people have said, it was great for an OVA. It answered some questions that people had (mainly the one about Okabe and Kurisu), maintained its humor and style from the series, and still satisfied its fans without having to resort to lame fan service.

I look forward to the movie; even if it isn't a sequel to the anime, if the anime is anything to go by, the movie will be amazing.

I just love how an anime without "Romance" as a main genre of focus does romance better than most actual supposed "Romance" anime while still ALSO having a brilliant fucking story.

As others have said, Okabe definitely knows how to deliver a goddamn confession.

See you all in the movie discussion thread.

Well said.

I can't help but to be worried.. I truly pray that the movie doesn't disappoint after one of the most epic (anime) TV series to come out in a while... Followed up by yet another one of the (my opinon) and by a LONG stretch best Specials.. It feels like we've stepped over the line of Epicness to where no one else has walked.. It's getting dangerously tricky!

Kurisu = Japanese for Chris... Amazeeng

Mayuri was just soooooooooo cuuuuteee that it was HEART BREAKING.

Also- Okabe was so sly... To be honest, I NEVER saw that coming. Was expecting him to be like, "It was nuthin'"

On the side note, he should've been arrested more times :3
