Suzuha is my favorite gal in SG; I think it's a combination of Tamura Yukari's voice and those socks. Maybe because I'm a child of the late 70s/early 80s, but those socks turn me on. :heh:

I do wonder about the jersey she wears though. I am not a bicyclist, but isn't that thing hot? Especially in the middle of August and when not riding a bike?

Suzahu is pretty badass, though I'm not sure if she's more badass than Moeka, who dodges a bullet at point blank range by tilting her head. :p

I do wonder at her real reason for traveling back in time and oh so conveniently getting a job right next to Okarin though. I'm not going to call her a liar, and in fact I think she's been the most refreshingly honest person in the entire show, but I very much doubt she traveled back in time simply to meet her father. That sounds rather frivolous. :p

The most obvious, yet satirical, answer is she's a Terminator send back to protect Okarin. :heh: It would explain why she gets the job where she did. That said, that analogy only really works if one of two things are true:

1) She wants to change the future. I'm not sure she does though, as she's been pretty restrained, especially concerning one subject we know she has strong feelings about: Kurisu.

2) More in line with Terminator, there are other time travelers who have been sent back to harm Okarin in some way. I'm not sure I've seen anything to indicate this.

Or, she really could be innocently sent back in time to see her father, but knew Okarin from the future so out of nostalgia took a job near him. Then, gets emotionally attached, despite her soldier training, and starts interfering when she shouldn't have, hence the blurting out that Kurisu is a spy (I'm pretty sure she isn't, but it's possible she becomes one at some point in Suzahu's past), and helping Okarin out in episode 13, after initially leaving them to their fate.

I guess time will tell.

Edit: I got the strong hint that there was someone else off-camera on the rooftop with Suzahu in episode one outside the "satellite" aka probably time machine, which if true, would mean she may have come back in time with someone else. I wonder who that person may be, and what they've been doing all this time.

This is how she rolls. Possible spoilers, so I'll tag it.

Where is that picture from? Is it fan made? Since I don't recall it was in the game.

Wait, it's not in the game? DAMN IT.

I suppose it's fan-made since I don't remember seeing it myself. (Maybe it's in chapter 5, have to go back and check again but I'm quite positive it's fan-made)

It's got to be official art then, if not in-game.

It's from Steins;Gate Visual Works.

The blood on the picture is making me think so too. Since they have Mr.Brown with an apron with "I LOVE CRT" next to him in it.

Mr. Braun? Where?

That should be in spoiler tags for those who haven't seen the latest ep imo!!

SO what are the bets on if she is Okabe and Kurisu's child? The option seemed to arise to be of Itaru's blood as well. I'd almost bet that she's already found her father and hasn't realized it yet (or has but hasn't given the answer to the audience yet).

I don't think she's Okabe and Kurisu's daughter, unless she had some sort of massive surgery to change her appearance. I'm thinking with all of the hints they've dropped, it's more likely that Daru is her father and the most likely bet for being her mother is probably Feyris. Honestly, with how much they've foreshadowed Daru being Suzuha's father, I'd be shocked if it turned out he wasn't.

Anyone here read STEINS;GATE - BOUKAN NO REBELLION manga? It's the manga focused on Suzuha's life in the future before she went back to the past.

NOTE: Suzuha's mother is shown in this manga so, it may be a spoiler for you.

One thing I'm baffled about after watching episode 16: why did Suzuha dying of illness alter the timeline compared to when she committed suicide? Was there something she was able to do in the past at that point that we aren't aware of yet?

Well, in the other episodes Mayushii keeps dying at the exact same time even when Sern isn't involved and some people have speculated that, if your time is up and you're meant to die, you die someway somehow each time which is what I thought happened in Suzuha's case. For some reason she was meant to die in 2000 so she'll probably die at that time in each timeline one way or another.

No, I get that. I'm just baffled as to why Suzuha dying of illness had an effect on the timeline compared to when she committed suicide, since it seems that in both timelines she never found the IBN computer.

I'm fairly certain we don't know if she was successful or not at finding the IBN 5100 after Okabe sends his D-Mail. That said, the fact that she was so troubled over whether she'd changed the divergence meter's number or not would seem to indicate she was successful in spiriting away the IBN 5100 to the shrine (I think it's almost a certainty it was she who gave it to the shrine as described by the shrine keeper in one of the early episodes).
