/a/ - Animu & Mango

>>813103

I haven't even gotten the true end for the first vn. No way am I gonna spoil everything by watching the sequel anime.

>>813103

>its finally here

Threadly reminder that traps are gay.

>>813107

>I honestly wish they would deviate from the VN, because it was a mess.

I've seen someone claiming that they will take a lot of liberties, but I don't know where he got it from.

>>813143

>This is the world line where Okabe becomes a normalfag?

Yes.

>The entire thing gives me FFX-2 vibes with yuna chasing not-tidus, but I think it will turn out well.

It won't, unfortunately. Reminder that the only good thing about Zero is Maho and the charismatic giant Finn.

LESS THAN 3 HOURS UNTIL THE PREMIERE

>>813143

The mad scientist becomes the sad scientist

>Cried like a bitch at the first show.

Is this one going to get as many tears out of me?

>>813210

Not sure if you've read the 0 VN, but there are definitely a few scenes I can think of that could be tearjerkers

I don't speak nip so I don't know much of what was said, but Amadeus as the ending for this episode gave me chills

>>813236

>Okabe isn't quite as gloomy

This has been effectively debunked for the first episode release, the PTSD was better than the VN, which showed that same static image every single time.

>>813239

I'm glad then, I don't think they should try to make this any less dark than the VN.

>>813253

The VN of the original S;G isn't as much of a rush as the anime was and had a lot of side endings. Watching the original anime gives you the knowledge to watch 0 since this takes place on the beta world line.

I wonder if they'll address the fact that S;G0 Okabe is going to overwrite S;G Okabe 15 years after he reaches Steins;Gate due to Reading Steiner.

Where will you be watching it/ torrenting it?

>>813274

I watched it live without subs on some stream, but since I can barely understand Japanese, I'm gonna torrent it from HorribleSubs or someone on nyaa

I don't know how I feel about it straight up using ost tracks from the VN. The original series had its own music didn't it?

>>813276

They reused a lot of it for the original anime. Obviously there were some new tracks for the OP and ED

I liked the first episode a lot and now I'm really hyped to pick up the VN translation when it comes out on May 8. Hell at this rate I might even pick up the elite version of the original VN.

>>813310

If you play the original VN just be prepared to have to replay it after making a wrong choice on some random thing in the game, or just use a guide.

>>813303

Why did she even do this? Would it make her less suspicious to just attack her friends for no reason?

>>813312

Most of the endings can be found by just using your head. I'd rather not spoil it for people going in blind, because you'll probably figure it out from the first ending you get, but answering every call from Amadeus may not be wise. Once you get that, finding the different endings is just a matter of finding which ones are consequential, which is very little guesswork if you're paying attention. If you look up a guide to the different paths, you may spoil one of the cool things about the route paths, so I'd suggest doing it yourself and only saving a guide for when you're truly stumped.

The only thing that really needs a guide is finding the true ending, since activating it is not as simple as answering/denying Amadeus. It's not even really a true ending, it's only a small amount of bonus content on top of the ending it stems from.

Hey, that was pretty good.

>>813378

I don't remember much either but basically this is an alternative world where the MC didn't manage to save the red head waifu.

If you remember the original anime after all the shit he had done the last part to save the world was to get Kurise (red head) "killed" and make his own self think she was really dead.

In this world line he didn't manage to save her so she was killed for real and now he has all the trauma after going through so many timelines for not being able at the end to save his waifu neither stop WW3.

>>813314

>>813317

If I'm remembering correctly she was getting pissed at this point that Okabe wasn't getting in the damn time machine and saving the world from WW3.

I watched the 23rd episode (beta) yesterday. I didn't know about it and it reminded me the serie. But the end of the episode was quite surprising. I didn't expect Okabe to go to college. It breaks its character, in my opinion.

>>813386

Even so, you'd think that she of all people would be capable of not physically attacking someone just for being annoyed with them when she was trying to hide.

>>813236

>taking advice from Tumblr

You could really consider eating a bullet.

>>813417

He was already in college, the entire reason he went to Dr. Nakabachi's presentation, and Kurisu's presentation where he called her a zombie were both for credits. It just wasn't a big deal because it was in the summer. Now it's in the winter so the next full semester has started.

>>813449

Didn't know that. I thought he went full NEET.

>Okabe isn't quite as gloomy.

Haha, what?

>>813417

you're retarded, of course he broke character, losing kurisu destroyed him, now he's just trying to get away from all that mad scientist larping and become a normalfag.

>>813300

Is Aoi Yuuki the seiyuu for all tiny best girls out there?

>>813417

Okabe was already in college in the original, they were just on summer break

>>813314

It was to Avoid her mom, who at the time is like 19. Remember, shes a time traveler

>>813310

There's a fan translation already out.

>>813491

They probably haven't even played a VN before, and think the anime is a good solution.

>>813491

I hope we will have japanese shaman girls in this adaptation

>>813510

I really hope we get that too. I can't remember what route it was in though. It's too meme-worthy not to include

I'm gonna be pretty disappointed if they don't change anything. The VN had too many things that don't make any sense.

Why does erasing Kurisu's memory immediately vs hesitating dramatically alter events?

Erasing Kurisu's memories without hesitating sends Okabe to 2036? What caused that? Reading Steiner has only been established to send Okabe to the same time on a different worldline. Never to the past/future. The only thing that ever moves Okabe in time are time machines from the future and the time leap machine, neither of which use Reading Steiner.

Amadeus has Reading Steiner...What the fuck.

Literally every plot line involving Kagari, bitch is a walking plothole generator

Even though Reading Steiner is fleshed out a bit more, there is still no explanation as to why Okabe's Reading Steiner is strong enough to completely and perfectly overwrite memories from other worldlines

Maho-tan can only carry so much on her tiny back.

>>813518

Bonus question

Why doesn't the True End D-Rine activate Reading Steiner and overwrite the Okabe who didn't turn off his phone?

I'm sorry for asking to be spoonfed like all the anime-only steins;gate fags. Is robotic;notes good enough that I should hold on watching the anime before playing the VN?, I downloaded the anime series yesterday but I'm starting to reconsider, as I loved the fuck out of Chaos;Head but the anime was thrash.

>>813526

>robotic;notes

The anime is fine but I didn't read the VN. You should always read VNs first (and it comes from an anime-only steins;gate fag) .

>>813518

In the instance that 'reading steiner' teleports him to the future its not really 'reading steiner', its just his memories getting backed up and downloaded into his brain. He experienced time normally but had his brain reformatted.

At least that's what I remember.

D-Rine to unlock true route was really bad though, it doesn't do anything and things just magically change.

>>813491

I haven't watched the episode yet, was Leskinen in it and did he go LINTAHROW? I'm going to riot if they change his VA.

>>813532

Even with the Amadeus backup of his brain, that's still a problem with Reading Steiner, since he would have had to get his brain scanned by Maho, and that hadn't happened yet. Even if Maho had already scanned his brain on the worldline he jumped to, why did he end up in Amadeus instead of Okabe's brain? He doesn't go into a coma until 2025.

>>813533

I was wondering how they were gonna go about adapting it as soon as I got to that part, they're might just fight in underwear.

>>813586

Who is complaining about the "increased breast size"?

Twitter?

Tumblr?

Halfchan?

No-one on here is.

>>813591

No one here is, I saw it reading Halfchan threads and some people on Reddit. I tend to read comments about episodes in a variety of places

Fuck I just realized the fucked up music in the PTSD sequence was a distorted version of the song "Christina"

>>813533

I'm just waiting for this part. I don't know how they'll handle the multiple routes, but as long as they get this right I'll be happy.

>>813383

>If you remember the original anime after all the shit he had done the last part to save the world was to get Kurise (red head) "killed" and make his own self think she was really dead.

>In this world line he didn't manage to save her so she was killed for real

Specifically this is the bad future that had to happen for Okabe's future self to send the video message that tells him to trick the world Also Mayuri didn't slap him in this timeline.

Sage for double post.

Did anybody else think that Faris suit with the paws looks quite stupid? In the VN it looked even worse.

>>813607

It's fine for wearing as a coat (like I think it's supposed to be), but I hope she doesn't wear it constantly like she does in the VN.

>>813586

>there are also tons of retards complaining that characters' breast sizes have increased.

For Mayuri it is a good thing, but for Suzuha don't work (make she looking fat).

I don't care what they gonna do to Moeka.

>>813491

All VNs are dogshit I played the SG;0 visual novel and felt like killing myself a few hours in.

>text describes what's happening on screen negating the benefit of a VISUAL novel

>text speed is at a pace your blind retarded grandmother would find slow, maxing text speed AND using cheat engine to double the run speed is still too slow

>tomes and tomes of inane and worthless worldbuilding that you need extreme autism to care about

>pages and pages of filler and worthless characters wasting time

>the existential horror of having to re-do portions of the game

The engrish audio was pretty funny though, might as well watch a stream of all endings on youtube at 3x speed I definitely do not recommend playing SG;0

>>813592

>Halfchan

>Reddit

I think you answered your own question as to why they are complaining.

>>813607

It does look dumb, but it's justified but it does make sense that someone like Faris would wear it.

>>81358

>complaining that characters' breast sizes

That's retarded. Moeka has big breasts, even in the anime adaptation. And I wouldn't care if it wasn't the case anyway.

>>813732

Beta Suzuha knew her father in 2036 unlike Alpha Suzuha, who had never met him and only knew him as "Barrel Titor".

>>813732

This is the beta field. All world lines that start with "1." are beta lines. All beta lines have lead to WWIII. The original series mostly took place in the alpha field where all lines start with "0." and lead to SERN's dystopia, in the alpha line, Suzuha didn't know her dad because he was killed by SERN just before he was able to finish the time machine.

Beta leads to WWIII where Suzuha grew up as a soldier and had a grimdark childhood, but always knew her dad, to the point where her dad sent her on this mission and told her everything she needed to know.

In the alpha world lines, Suzuha was a genki girl that liked riding bikes and marvelled at corn. In the beta world lines she's a trained killer with PTSD and never smiles. She also wants Okabe to get in the fucking time machine.

>>813586

I noticed the increase in Mayuri's Mayuris. Its A-OK by me.

>>813607

>Did anybody else think that Faris is quite stupid?

ftfy

>>813586

The titty size has always been Phoneautist > Mayuri > Timetravelsloot > Furry >>> Chestlet

EPISODE TWO PREVIEW

I'll never understand where the Japanese got the idea that Americans all greet each other with "HEY BOY!"

>>815768

It gets worse.

How long before big titty Kagari shows up and shits up the entire show and kills all potential it had?

>MUH MOMMY

Hopefully we'll get a good rooftop massacre scene to make up for it.

I don't think I can bring myself to watch this because Okabe suffered enough in the original.

>>815769

Is there any reson that this dude has a Finnish last name or is that just irrelevant?

>>815999

Everything about him seems Finnish to me, except that he's working for the 'murricans. Typical Nordic hair color, giant and chiselled features compared to the Japanese. Then again they like to attribute these features to the burgers too. If you mean if his nationality is going to be a plot point, not as far as I can recall.

>you will never have a phone app with your own Kurisu to interact with

Kill me.

>>816013

Why would you think that wouldn't happen?

http://amadeusproject.weebly.com/download.html

>>816034

>>816035

Can I play the S;G0 VN if I never played the original and just watched the anime or is there gonna be a lot of VN only stuff that gets brought up?

>>816039

If you've seen the anime and at least know the story decently I think you should be able to follow it as far as I know. You should play the original VN though, it's better than the anime

>>816040

I just rewatched the anime so I could keep up with this season. I'm not really that into VNs but I'm just kind of craving for more S;G now. Maybe I'll play the original some day but was just thinking that I'd rather play the sequel if it's not filled with stuff that only happened in the original VN and not the anime.

>>816039

yes you can, but if you care enough about the series as to read the VN I recommend you read the original.

>>816044

The original anime left out the chapter where Okabe reverted Faris's timeline changes, and obviously it left out all the endings except the true ending, but since 0's timeline branches off the events of the true ending you *can* get away with just starting the VN/anime now. I definitely recommend playing the original VN though.

Here you go: mega/#!QwFBSSra

!8Y47vyntMzlZe7f2FcfwFMVbz9tKAOR7dJwGc6GqscQ

>>816039

>>816044

You can, but you shouldn't, I'm not into VNs either but I read the original because I was craving for more s;g too and I'm glad l did.

>>816045

>>816040

>>816052

I guess I'll just do that then since >>816048 spoonfed me the game and you are all in agreement, this'll be my third VN and probably the best on I've played since the others were meme games.

>>816060

I can also post 0 later, I'm uploading it right now. It's a bit huge, be forewarned.

>>816064

Is there any way to set this to full screen?

>>816070

The worst one.

>>816077

Hit F.

>>816111

>i'm under the impressions there won't be as much content to adapt.

You'd be surprised actually. It's about as long as the original but harder to make into a linear story. If they pull off the two routes they've chosen though it should be absolutely top tier. The feels will hit hard at least twice

>>816104

Thanks. Playing the original now and the start feels pretty boring after having just watched the series but I'm slogging through and hope there'll be more VN only content once the time travel hijinks go into full gear. I like the fact that you can read Moeka's messages, which gives her a little more character. Browsing @chan is also kind of fun especially now that I know Christina's tripcode.

>>816111

I agree! Dr. Leskinen is the best, and not suspicious at all! Ignore those silly rumors about him, they're just slander and libel!

>>816105

>what should have been a small nod to the original

What? It's a direct continuation of S;G, why would you be expecting it to start a completely disconnected story?

Spoilers ahead.

If they somehow find a way for Promised Rinascimento Okarin to put himself into an Altair and Vega sekaisen instead of D-Rining, then it'll be AOTS. If not, above average.

>>816167

Simplest way to start is to just have the D-Rine actually work, with maybe a rebuild of the time leap machine to even out the worldline jumps endpoint. But then you've gotta basically rewrite Vega and Altair to accommodate Promised Rinascimento Okabe.

I just remembered another thing that I thought was strange in the VN

So during the fight over time machine tech, SERN gets ahead and temporarily puts everyone back on the Alpha attractor field. This is where Okabe meets Kurisu in the lab again after Mayuri's death. After the scene Kurisu sends a D-Mail that sends everything back to the Beta Field? The D-Mail itself is never shown, I think for good reason too, since I can't imagine a single thing that Kurisu could do to do that.

>>816179

There's not a lot of decisions that Okarin could have taken differently in Vega and Altair had he came from Promised Rinascimento. Okabe's reactions to certain situations (such as "OH FUCK REYES") though would be that much more worth it. It would actually feel like a proper sequel to a timefuck that S;G was.

>>816185

Also at the time of the D-Rine Hououin Kyouma had risen again

>>816187

Vega and Altair with Hououin Kyouma. Fuck you, I want this. I NEED THIS

Thank you VN-sans for being considerate and spoilering things properly.

>>816150

>what should have been a small nod to the original

I only meant that it directly parallels the first episode. It's not a nod in a "homage" sense but more like a literary device. By "original," I just meant the first season. Sorry that it was confusing. Of course it's a continuation, but considering that time has basically reset, the tone shift, and that 7 years have passed irl, it does feel a bit like sequel. I haven't kept up with the visual novel at all, and I don't really know what to expect though. Does the first episode of this season flow well with the finale of S1 or the OVA? It's been a while for me, so I can't remember well.

>>815844

Please spoiler your shit my dude.

>>816048

>>816104 (What the fuck, 6GB)

You're the man.

>>816485

>different aspect ratios

>they're both 16:9

????

>>816480

Sorry, anon. I'll make sure to spoiler anything like that in the future

Steins;Gate 0 PV 3 is out. Looks like we're getting some Kagari and the Christmas party this week

>Jump out and surprise a WWIII vet with party poppers

Who thought this was a good idea?

>>818350

Well, to be fair, most of them don't know that she's a WWIII vet. Those that do know have little to no understanding what it entails. Okarin is the only one who has any idea, as he too is a big ball of PTSD at this point

So, will this be 12 episodes or full-on 24 episodes like last time?

>>818364

I can't wait for another PTSD

>this entire episode

Kurisu is such a botnet

>>818418

It still irks me how bad S;G0 sprites are compared to S;G ones. It's just terrible.

>>818353

We are going to get tons of reaction images from Leskinen, right?

I'm not complaining.

PARRY

JAPANESE MAID GIRL

>>813822

But she's still a badass in the Alpha worldlines isn't she?

>>818471

She was part of the resistance against SERN, and was a terrorist. She was trained in combat and capable. But Beta Suzuha on another level entirely and is a stone cold killer.

It's already going off the rails of VN which is a good thing. Vega and Altair ending or variation of it incoming.

>>816184

It shall remain a mystery.

>>818625

>Vega and Altair ending or variation of it incoming.

I fucking hope not even if it's inevitable. Adding Mayuri to the canon harem is stupid when he already has both Kurisu and Maho. It was much better with her and Okabe as close friends, almost family, instead of yet another pairing. Or at least that's what the first anime portrayed it as, I don't know if it's like that in the canon first VN route. Either way adding a million love interests just cheapens the story when he already has two canon ones.

Unfortunately it's impossible to not cheapen the story of the first one without completely rewriting Zero and changing the "big twist".

>>818637

We are on path leading to that ending. I mapped all the paths in VN and anime title on episode 3 is on that path.

>>818655

>>818637

Unless it goes to Gehenna's Stigma

100% of the VN incoming

>>818777

Its the chime that sells it. Also I like how the episode ended. Where Rintaro seems like he losses it again after Maho reiterates what Amadeus is. But Its right at the time where he gets sent to the Continuing Cold War.

>>813511

This happened before D-Rine and it seems like the anime is adapting everything after D-Rine.

>>821814

>3-gatsu no Lion 2nd season

Should I regret having dropped the first season half way? Because I don't.

Wow I can't believe they cut WWIII to such a short scene, and all before the opening too. Disappointing

>>821815

It's not bad but it feels forced at times and 2nd season is more of the same. I doubt it'd be as popular as it is were it not for the presentation.

>>818884

What's a Russian gunship doing here?

>>821829

Foreshadowing.

I'm confused When did Kagari get the "Voice of God" treatment? I thought it was after she ran away in 1998, not before.

>>821768

Anon, you might want to up the bitrate a bit so you don't get as many artifacts in the video and fuck around with audio settings, because it sounds crappy.

>>821814

Anon, FMA: Brotherhood is first place and it wasn't so great.

>>821889

No, FMA:B was pretty good. Not GOAT great, but the reason it's first on MAL is because of the huge fanbase around the dub of the first adaptation.

>>821871

>Spoiler

It was before she was adopted by Mayuri, when she was in hospital back in 2036.

>>821819

Considering how strange the route is looking, we might get another look at the WWIII scene later on. X day protocol never happend if Stray sheep happend.

The best thing about this thread so far is that I've been able to read most of the spoilers and still not understand what the fuck is going on, so I don't think I'll have ruined my enjoyment of the show.

>>821935

>that thumbnail

What

>>821935

Looks like VLC in the past.

>>821933

Would you mind doing the ending also?

>>821935

Reminds me of watching torrents of TV shows in the early oughts.

I'm confused.

Okabe switches worldlines, then wakes up in a bed, then after the OP plays he is back on the roof with Maho

Did he shift worldlines after?

>>822108

Welcome to S;G0 where the plot makes no sense and the world lines don't matter.

>>822108

They cut out a huge section of the Cold War worldline. In the original, he's trapped on that worldline for about a month or two because of a Russian time machine test that changed the worldline during the Christmas party. Another time machine test in the Cold War worldline changes it back to the original worldline...somehow also rewinding that elapsed time.

Of course, they might've rewritten this part for the anime and it could be explained in a future episode. Probably not.

>>821935

This actually looks like a good intro.

>>822156

Could be good if they actually execute Endless Cold War, albeit not like this. Maybe with actual post-processing effects.

>>822115

>First Spoiler

The problem with that is that the Cold War worldline event happens during the X-day protocol chapter in the Christmas party while everyone were inside the lab. The scene in which Okabe talks to Kurisu about why he called her Christina happend in the Shrine, not the rooftop, and it didn't change the world lines at that point. My guess is that we will have another cold war/Jeep Ride sequence flash back once we get back from the Kurisu ending to head into true ending territory.

>>822115

>first spoiler

>rewinding that elapsed time

I'm at that part right now, and the time jumped from 12/24 to 1/21 when the Divergence Meter went back from 1.32 to 1.14, so it doesn't seem like it went back in time.

>>822108

Yeah it was supposed to change world lines then back Which sucks because the continuing Cold War was a good point to give you a brief glimpse at the up coming horror of WW3 This cut makes me think that they're trying to do 12 episodes, not 24. But if they're doing like some spoilers suggest, then this is going to be weird. Making people watch the first half of the true end then going right back to the start in order to complete it sounds kinda lame But since there is evidence that the correct path has been chosen already, who knows what they'll cut or modify to get there

>>822268

I think its going to depart enough from the VN that I've stopped trying to figure it. As long as we get certain memorable scenes I'll be happy.

>>824021

She was cuter in the VN.

>>824314

How can you stand how the dub mutilates the script and tries to add le ebin Reddit jokes?

Went to re-read the original VN since it was so much better than the anime. But where the fuck is the instant text option?

Aside from that, I'm surprised at how annoying Maho was. Genius, scientist, good head on her shoulders. But when it comes to making decisions, she immediately jumps on the "emotional" choice instead of the choice that doesn't see the end of civilization as we know it along with the death of billions. If you make a character out to be a bastion of logic, I expect that character to act like a bastion of logic, not some dumb teenager that doesn't understand the concept of responsibility.

In any case, late to party but I'm also hoping the anime won't end up being as much of a mess as the VN was.

>>826300

>Where the fuck is the instant text option?

Turn off the setting that syncs the text to the voice lines.

>>826300

A character being very logical in their professional work in no way guarantees that they will behave logically in perwonal life. In fact, it is very likely they will start spilling spaghetti left and right as overly logical types tend to have stunted emotional intelligence.

Why is Faris wearing neko ears with the shrine maiden outfit? Wouldn't that be disrespectful?

>>827003

I'm guessing that making the crossdressing faggot wear the outfit is even more disrespectful.

>>827005

Good point

>>827026

Leskinen, obviously. I wouldn't wish that pain on anyone.

I binge watched the original Steins Gate on Funimation Now before getting to watch this. I really like the original and how it ended so I was really curious. It definitely feels sadder considering the timeline it involves but it is definitely entertaining.

>>826991

Waiting around for each episode is super painful.

The first season was much more interesting with interactions between Okabe, Kurisu, and Daru. We see less Daru, no Kurisu (Amadeus is an insufficient substitute), and Okabe has a totally boring personality now. I just don't seem to care about these characters.

>>827175

Well, considering Okabe pretty much had an ego death after not being able to save Mayuri hundreds of times, I think the new mood/personality is perfect.

>>827182

If anything, he seems to be less broken than in the VN.

>>827114

>I really like the original and how it ended so I was really curious.

If you enjoyed the ending to the first one, you can look forward to having that ending retconned and cheapened.

>>827226

Never know, might get a non True End, if we're lucky it might revive HOUOUIN KYOUMA and go full batshit anime original WW3 arc denwa-nuke.

It won't, we won't, but a man can dream

>>826991

>It keeps happening!

<It keeps happening!

It keeps happening!

It keeps happening!

Can't wait to see how people react to how they get out of this situation.

>>827026

Truly the face of regret.

>>827026

But really though, where were the shaman girls?

>>827779

>didn't go full engrish

I am disappointed. This entire adaption is lacking a lot of Leskinen engrish. He could have been an even bigger meme but no. At least him just straight up leaving in utter depression made up for it.

>>828296

I'm betting Suzuha dies. They still need a way to lock the story into the beta line, this would be a good way to do it.

t. also secondary.

>>828312

Oh. so it's currently ongoing? is there any anime between steins;gate and steins;gate 0?

>>828314

Yeah, it's ongoing. Going to air till October. There were a movie and specials between S;G and Zero.

>>827182

When you put it in perspective like that, it does make sense. It's an interesting development for that leg of the story, but it feels like a boring place to start from on this one.

>>828296

It was also Maho's phone that stopped working, like Tuturu's watch.

they always kill best girl

>>828532

Phones going dead make sense considering the groups we know are involved but I don't recall anything about the watch stopping before.

>>828543

The watch stops every time before Mayuri dies. Unless I completely misunderstood this conversation, I'm after all another filthy secondary.

>>828741

There was like 3 different people who were in the motorcycle suit depending on the worldline. This one was actually Yuki who was a Stratfor agent

And yes, it is bullshit. This is why we say that S;G0's story makes no sense.

>>828742

I'd also like to mention that it gets extra confusing when he gets back to the beta field, it's actually a different world line all together, and Yuki is no longer a Stratfor agent. It's all just meant to confuse you.

>>828742

>>828743

But Yuki was never actually a Stratfor agent, right? I distinctly remember in the VN that Yuki was actually "on vacation" in the worldline where "Yuki" (actually Kagari) was an agent for Stratfor and was somehow modified to look like Yuki. Hell, I remember her dying on the roof of the radio building talking about how she wasn't actually Yuki as well as the naked grappling and the Upa being left outside the lab and her coming back for it.

>>828745

In the later worldlines, yeah. She was never an agent. But in this single one, she is. The radio building and the naked grappling was Kagari, because that's a different worldline than this one. There's 3 worldlines I think, it's been a while. This is why everything to do with Kagari makes no sense.

#1: Kagari was brainwashed by Sratfor in 2036 and ran away in 1970. Later something went wrong and she escaped and has no amnesia. I think she still is affected by the Voice of God

#2: Kagari was never captured, and was brought in with Suzuha. She knows that Mayuri is her mother and vice versa.

#3: Kagari was not brainwashed in 2036, but was sad and ran away in 1970. She was captured by the American military and had Kurisu's memories implanted in her. She's programmed to chase anything that plays The Magic Flute

What ever happened to the scene where Leskinen and Maho are shot at in the parking garage by some random guy while Okabe is with them? I think that happened before all of this. Did they just cut it out? It was a pretty fun scene and I was looking forward to it.

As a side note, I've been reading through Chaos;Head to pass the time and recently came to the part where the research on using electric signals to allow the blind to see and thus control perception through electric signals was given to the Main Character by Grim who had his foreign friend dig up the patent in America. They mentioned that the research was carried out at Victor Chondoria University. The research is obviously of the same vein as the compression of memories in Steins;Gate that can be sent through a phone and the research in creating Amadeus by recording the electrical impulses in the brain as memories in a computer system. I couldn't really read the actual document as the text was way to small, but it got me thinking. Was that research also carried out by Kurisu? Maybe I'll find out if I keep reading or bother to figure out if the dates are close enough, but I figured it would simply be easier to ask to see if somebody already knows (and not go through the wiki and risk spoiling other elements of the story).

>>828756

That scene in general wasn't very well animated except for maybe a couple shots. Are they trying to save money now so the latter episodes look better, or is it going to look this QUALITY even towards the end? I figured White Fox would put a lot of money into this considering how popular Steins;Gate was (presumably).

>>828759

The scene you are referring to I think that it happened in the Vega and Altair route.

>>828749

I remember this scene and how Yuki did say that she got her arm hurt by falling. Later in the worldline they never mentioned Yuki being a Stratfor agent though.

I thought Kagari was just brainwashed by Leskinen in all 3 outcomes as a kid and that is her "Voice of God". The Kagari's as I remember them are as follows

Kagari who is trained to kill (pretty much only shows up at the top of Radi-kun and to fight Suzuha naked)

Magic Flute Kagari (the one who is yet to have implanted Kurisu memories)

and Kurisu Kagari (who successfully had memories implanted in her but she escaped)

This Kagari should be magic flute

>>829050

>Remember, C;H takes place before S;G

Yeah, but only two years beforehand. C;H takes place in the fall of 2008 and S;G the summer of 2010 if I am remembering correctly. Kurisu was a child prodigy, so it wouldn't be completely unthinkable for her to be working on such research two years before the events of S;G.

Chaos;Head has taken a turn for the worse as I have been reading it. The first half had a much more interesting atmosphere and reading into the MC's psyche was honestly fascinating. The shenanigans of the computer and his irredeemable autism were very funny, and trying to figure out how delusional he actually is was a sort of game. No though there's a ton of magical sword bullshit and the MC's character has been suddenly changed. Who knows, maybe the ending will make up for it. I've heard the true end (reached by triggering the right delusion triggers) is decent. Also, little sister has been the best girl thus far. When he seemed to give up on her I had an conniption fit and practically corkscrew jumped into my monitor. Still, I don't know how many of their interactions were actually real (inb4 none of them). Also, maybe this isn't exactly the right thread to be discussing this in. If my dear, precious meidos deem this off-topic then I suppose we could move this to the VN thread.

There's a ~12 second still of Suzuha's face at the beginning of episode 6 when Okabe is taking to Kagari. Low budget, inflated tits and poor source material isn't leaving me very hopeful for this.

New thread?

>>829655

Why is the bump limit gay here?

>>829812

It was lowered to encourage new threads a while ago. I don't like it either, might want to to bring it up in the next meta thread.
