There's a few assumptions in there, but I think that's roughly what happened.

Another great episode of Steins;Gate, glad that they eventually got back to the original major plot point of Kurisu's death at the start of the series and how (or even if) Okabe can work his way around it saving Kurisu & Mayuri in the process and still thwart SERN.
Spoiler for And I'm with Triple R on this:
Really hope the show finishes as well as these last two episodes have gone. This is one of the best anime series climaxes I've ever seen. |

I now went to watch that scene in episode 1 where Kurisu died. That scream that Okabe and Mayushi heard was honestly one of the most heart-wrenching ones ever. Even more so now that we can figure out why it was like that, as well as who it inevitably was.

*** Btw, I thought the dragonflies in the Mr. Braun scene were a nice touch. Something animated that goes about its life as usual to counterbalance the tragedy and tells you that life goes on. It's that sort of detail that really gets to me. |

Sweet episode, I felt the moments when Braun shoots Moeka and himself were truly disturbing, but I guess the buildup was kinda missing and it's all over in 1 episode, leading me to wonder where everything falls into this.
So they can go back to the beginning where sern never takes over and Mayuri can live. But Kurisu is gonna die. Yikes, with only 4 episodes can they really make the ending complete?

That being said, this was another great episode. Everything about it was stunningly perfect. The stake-out scene which led to the tailing, the conversation they had with Mr. Braun and the eventual death of both Moeka and Braun. I do wonder as well if Mr. Braun's fate was to also die on that day in that worldline, but one D-mail from his phone and it was done. Okabe's expression when he realized he still had one more D-mail to undo, which would lead to Kurisu's death, was as if the Grim Reaper had just slapped him in the face. Wonderful. 10/10 |

This episode was rather emotionally packed, but a bit too rushed for me to enjoy it. I've read some earlier comments and I really want to see crazy Nae. After all, I was pretty freaked out by her the first time she Nice-Train'd Mayuri onto the tracks.

Hi, I'm new here..I have bad grammer so excuse me just wanted to share my opinion and this episode was awesome and the end of the episode I got creeped out cause Kurisu was smiling knowing that canceling the first D mail would mean her death... D;

If they space it all out right, four episodes would be just the right number to pull of the ending. Have Okabe agonize over his decision in episode 21, make the decision in episode 22/end of episode 21, and then spend the last two episodes dealing with the fallout of that decision.

So Moeka finally spilled the beans about IBN 5100. I was totally surprised to see Mr. Braun was involved with all of this! Guess no one is as they seem. This is getting even more complicated since more people have a tendency to die as a direct consequence of Okabe's playing around with changing history. Guess Okabe can't save everyone even if he reverses the whole process...

The one thing that is clear is that Okabe will have to jump back and borrow Suzuha's time machine before she leaves, in order to physically revisit the events of the first episode. Apart from that, there are a lot of different ways it could end up going. |
