Steins;Gate episode 2

Okarin says: "I can touch her. She's really here."

Woah! A 3D girl! I’ve never seen one before!

Steins;Gate episode 2 is pretty good. I mean, everything that starts with sexual harassment ought to be good, right?

Okarin pokes Makise Kurisu

*poke*

Okarin undresses Makise Kurisu

That’s a really bad excuse to start undressing someone else…

After some molestation, the episode starts with Makise Kurisu giving a lecture about time machines, which her molester, Okarin, happens to attend, as well. Stating that she thinks that time machines can’t exist right off the bat, Okarin snaps and says that it’s far too early to decide that. Kurisu, however, bashes Okarin in the discussion that follows. Okarin, noticable annoyed about that, dismisses his failure as carefully planned psychological warfare by the “agency”.

Urushibara Ruka - the delicious trap

Delicious trap is delicious

Urushibara Ruka is quite something. If Okarin hadn’t said he is male, I would still totally believe he is female. Anyway, Ruka doesn’t seem particulary important to the plot. But knowing how Chaos;Head turned out, he may just be a super important character.

Okarin issues emergency order 666

Dispose of the corpses! Hide the lolis! Order pizza!

Having arrived back home, Okarin does some research on what he perceived in the radio tower. Doing so, he runs into “John Titor” on the internet. Much to his surprise, John Titor isn’t popular anymore. Okarin also can’t find the books he had from the “previous” John Titor.

The next day, he goes to a maid cafe called May Queen nyan 2 . On his way there, he meets a strange women called Kiryuu Moeka, who takes pictures of where she goes and what she sees as proof. I get the feeling she’ll become important to the story at some point.

Gel banana attached to regular bananas

Don’t be a bitch now, those bananas look perfectly edible!

Okarin and Itaru continue their experiments with bananas and microwaves. This time they only put one banana in the microwave. After it’s done, Itaru opens the microwave and is surprised to find the banana has disappeard. Arguing about who used a trick to make the banana disappear, they find the missing gel banana to have reattached to the bunch completely. They think the microwave is some kind of teleportation device. It should somehow allow timetravel, though. At the end of the episode, Makise Kurisu shows up in Okarin’s “lab”, stating he is doing an interesting experiment in a rather calm manner – she must know something, especially since she looked so bored.

It feels as if Kurisu is some sort of evil character in this plot. I don’t really want her to be evil, as she is my favorite character in Steins;Gate.

I agree with you. I don’t want Makise Kurisu to be evil. Because, I think she is the heroine of this story
