We had Nae arc skipped - really small relevance to story, Junna's was resolved and Frau's in latest episode. Two girls and 8 episodes left.

Sales for both game and anime (1st vol. is out) are terrible. Nothing will help them.

Then Frau had better kiss Kai more in the last 8 episodes.

Frau is a better female MC imo anyways. Besides after that kiss, it would be hard to believe that they are going to restart from ground zero. Anime adaptations don't work that way. Frau is prob going to be worked in for the duration.

No she isn't. Suicide attempt only confirmed that.
Looking at pictures from episode looks like it happened. He probably doesn't know about kiss unless she told him. You don't know how adaptations work either.

She overcame her suicide attempt, reversed her hikkimori status and doing something to promote her mother's franchise. And..she's actively pursuing a guy. That is an immense amount of progress for a character to do. Especially for a 16 yo. Kai is supposedly 18 yo according to wikia.

She was on top of him about to kiss him the first time before the cops intervened. He knows.

We can agree to disagree.

R;N 15 - The Power of Justice Calls a Storm

Though Frau/Kona has moved out of her room, she's still taking small steps towards readjustment. Most of her time outside was spent in the shade, and her computer base is still important to her. But seeing her use it for Airi was a nice, purely altruistic move, and, considering her history, not completely unprecedented. I think it's a little suspicious that Airi would be done away with so quickly, and I don't think she's gone for good. As the person with the most direct connection to Kou, she needs to stick around.

So Airi's in kind of a Masato Jin situation. I know Kai called the police, but I wonder what happened to her real body, and if a cure does exist in this time for whatever it was that ailed her. With the seventh and final report on the way (and those weird solar storms), she could be really useful here. Glad to see the overplot of GB-2 is still progressing, in this case with the monopole getting attached to it. A lot was revealed, but there are also several more questions, so I'm excited for next week.

ookamigirl · 2013-02-01, 12:52

A lot of weird things happening.
Even Airi was acting odd, really odd.
Seems like the solar flare thing did a number of a lot of things.
Kai surfing... now that was kinda LOL
Wow, never thought Airi was a real person!
Seems like this anime is less and less about robots..

Haha, poor Nae, had her stories cut in both S;G & R;N.
BTW as I remember the game's sales were solid.

ars89 · 2013-02-01, 14:53

Wow never expected Airi to be a real girl. Wonder what they'll due now that they found her. Nice job by Frau of making it snow for her. Looks like Mizuku know about Airi's real body as well.

jte742 · 2013-02-01, 19:14

Very sweet. Airi was just so cute through the whole episode. Lots of surprises, too - I wasn't expecting Airi to be real, and I definitely wasn't expecting her to have such a relationship with Kimijima, nor was I expecting him to look or act like he does. I certainly hope we see more of Airi (as opposed to Geji-nee) - perhaps the real one now, instead of the AR version (and based on the ending sequence, we just might). Finally, it appears that the shop owner is not very happy with Kai still looking for the reports...

Also, as an aside, to me it was kind of neat to see the Iru-O alpha. Very limited in comparison to the version they're using now.

Airi was just too freaking cute. Kugimiya Rie is amazing when it comes to adorable lolis.

sikvod00 · 2013-02-01, 19:34

^ Yeah, she is. I'm glad to hear her in non-tsundere-overly-abusive roles!

Darthtabby · 2013-02-01, 22:50

Am I the only person who found the stuff with Kimijima and Airi to be kind of creepy? I know it's probably supposed to come across as sweet, but...

Only in the sense that It felt like kimijima put her consciousness in the Iru-o and it got erased in the maintenance due to the solar flare.

I'm suprised no one else has thought about it like that.

Oh, and also Makise Chrisu made an appearance. . .but you gotta find it, I'm not telling.

MasterVampire · 2013-02-02, 02:35

and

2. Is there any romance?

Thanks

Eh... does it really count if she doesn't visually appear in person?

Maybe because there might be a chance a part of Airi might be in Sister Centipede.

I found creepier the fact that he actually had a little girl in cold sleep in his basement.

By the way they clearly say the Airi on Iruo is an AI made to keep company to the original, I'm not sure how I would react to having my virtual clone keeping me company

.

Makise was here ? I guess it was on Tweepo like the others but I missed that one.

Christina makes an appearance at the start through Tweepo, with the same account name as her 2channel name in S;G.

I can't remember if Gejine was ever mentioned in the anime, but she was there in C;H and S;G.

Algent Senior Member Join Date: Dec 2005 Location: Beyond the Horizon Age: 34	Spoiler for episode 15: Weird Face So, another report and again it's skipped . Airi (Yukihune Airi) is a real girl after all . The one we saw until now is an AI, the real one is in cold sleep. And we finally know what Kimijima was looking like. Kaito also tried docking on AI Airi TLDR: Kimijima had a little girl in his basement, Belgian ? Last edited by Algent; 2013-01-31 at 16:42.

Kanon Kana Hanazawa ♥ Join Date: Jun 2007 Location: France Age: 37	Spoiler for 15: Airi episode this time. It was quite lovely. I thought for sure she would disappear after the maintenance, but that wasn't the case, although it's not clear if only Geji remains. Kaito discovered the original Airi and we got to see a flashback featuring Kimijima. I wonder what happened to Airi after Kaito called the police. Did they forcefully wake her up? I hope nothing bad happened to her. __________________
