Steins;Gate - Generic Discussion Thread

[viperdk1]

Wow. Phatasm + that last scene in Episode 9 was brilliantly placed. The 'oh ****' factor really came shining on through there.


Steins;Gate has been BRILLIANT and seems to have no inclination of stopping. Come on, don't let me down

What you pointed out first is a bit odd, though. But it may be that Feyris knows more than she lets out. Rather obvious about Moeka.. She wants an IBN5100 and went in the past just to get it before Kyouma does

That fits. In fact that makes me think even more that Ferris did something with her message that affected the IBN5100. Thus going back even further than Moeka.

But if that's true, then Moeka also has the same power as Kyoma, since she seemed distressed that the IBN5100 wasn't hidden where she left it. (i.e. She maintained her memories from traveling between timelines) [[And if that's true, then that would explain her obsessive use of her phone to confirm her reality]]

Things just keep spiraling with the additional D-Mails. Have to agree that Okabe should have pushed more to find out what the mail was about. Things like privacy might be nice, but when you are changing reality it matters. The end result here should hammer that message home. Moe just got hit hard in that area though of course it will always live on .

But really they are now even further away form the IBN and figuring out where it is. The location could be pretty important in terms of consequences. Without the computer only Okabe will know how horrifying things are with SERN and killing test subjects by sending them back in time.

Did enjoy the banter between Kurisu and Okabe. She just kept shutting him down. Managed to bring up most of his nicknames for her. Hilarious how by the end he was being so polite just so he could get things going already. Her crying at the start was something to wonder and be a bit worried about. Plenty going on in her life that we haven't seen.

Daru: It's over 9000!!!! *crushes scouter*

That never gets old in my mind. *cackle*

[MITSUYA]

hello there!

Spoiler for ep9:

btw translators and you guys are misunderstanding. She is not a 2channeler but @channeler. Kyoma just said"neler". It means @channeler.

[risingstar3110]

After watching ep 9:
- Ruka is confirmed to be a girl in uniform, or a real hardcore case of cos-player/ gender confuser
- Anyone here oppose to Mayushii calling Kurisu "Kurisu-onee-sama" from now on?

PS: and Akiba disappeared? Bid deal. We have a female Ruka and expanding yuri field here

Good catch.

[Raiga]

Jaw dropped at the end there. Like, not figuratively. Well played, well played.

Spoiler for Translation/sub digression:

Also this is what happens when your timer is half asleep. Been a while since I've seen a mistime that actually had the wrong character speaking, and these are professional subs. Also, while I realize they had to get an internet meme in there to make it work (better than the alternative, which is ignoring the reference completely *cough cough* Nichijou's translator *cough*) that has got to be the biggest dissonance I've ever had between what I was hearing and what I was reading. Could they at least have picked a... shorter one? ^^;;

BUT HOLY CRAP MAN FEYRIS yeah didn't see that coming.

[Guardian Enzo]

Spoiler for The horror...:

Okarin, you bastard you've done it now. You de-otaku'd Akiba!! DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE!!!!

Ruka was wearing a girls school uniform. That looks like confirmation to me.

[risingstar3110]

What exactly did Kurisu say in that "yo, i heard you like fail, so we put some fail in your fail, so you can facepalm while you facepalm" line btw? I know it's one of our meme to replace a meme in 2ch. but what exactly is it?

I can't stop replaying that suggestive look on Mayushii face when she looked at Kurisu btw...

She gave off some words of exasperation. Sort of like "This guy really is hopeless. If I (we) don't do something soon--"

Subs for 9 were ass in some parts, but I'm not sure if that's because of naughty middlemen or whatnot.

It could be that Ferris' loneliness about her father being absent in her life propelled her forward to create a moe culture in Akiba, but once her father returned there was no need, hence the change.

Christina's name is getting longer everyday.

Well said. That's what I'm thinking too. That Ferris sent a D-Mail into the past to save her father from a lethal accident (perhaps), and that this has a massive impact due to how wealthy her and her family are.

I loved how the sci-fi part of this anime was handled in this episode. The gravity of the situation, and of what Okarin is doing came through nicely here.

[Leo_Otaku]

I prefer male Ruka orz.

Great episode I love Okarin and his phone XD I can't wait to see how all these events play out.

REMOVE THE TRAP I'VE LOST MY SOUL NOW!

[crc8109]

wait im a little lost. i did a little research and i know what 2channel is and an orz pose is and i think i understand a meme is but im lost with christina.
HOW did okarin knw that christina is a 2channerler?
What connection is there b/w tsundere or orz poses and 2channel?
And what meme do 2channelers use that christina demonstrated?
i know its alot but id REALLY appreciate someone answering

[TurkeyPotPie]

No Suzuha this episode. Hope she hasn't disappeared in all the timeline switcheroos. That's my biggest fear every time they do a world shift, that someone will disappear permanently. Heck, I'd even miss the CRT shop manager.

The Feyris spotlight was pretty interesting, but that voice -- bleargh, I know there are probably plenty that like it, but it drove me nuts.

Aye, stop screwing with the time line folks. The more they try to fix it....

Also, lol at "Just as Planned"

[miroku2192]

So why can't they revert things back to the original timeline by sending themselves a d-mail along the lines of "don't let moeka send that dmail, or don't let feyris send that dmail out" ??
