Well, now you know why she is called "Shining Finger."
Lol, you just reminded me of my first run through the visual novel. At one point I said to myself: "Wow, she really is Shining Finger."

On to another topic: Has anyone of you re-watched episode 1? You know ... now, after we kinda got the topic and everything, isn't it strange that Kurisu said she already met Okabe 15 minutes ago even though he - the guy with the Reading Steiner - does not remember meeting her? Additionally, when he heard a scream and runs to find a dead Kurisutina, doesn't the person screaming sound like Okabe himself? We know that with D-mail alone he is not capable to timeleap. But as I said, that does not mean it is impossible. Just ask John Titor ...

If you want spoilers apparently wikipedia has the whole story summarized. I skimmed over it, and now there won't be that many surprises for me.

Whether that's a good thing or not, I can't say.

Cute, huh?

Yeah, i re-watched the first episode cuz i was curious about Kurisu being dead, it would appear that in the first timeline Titor met Kurisu and that led to her death, perhaps Titor wasn't the only one who passed into the past, it could very well be Okabe as well, and when he saw Kurisu he wanted to warn her about something, that is why she followed him, and how sh survived what ever was supposed to happen to her.

That Said, how can we be sure Titor is a good person ? if okabe leaped after him it was for a reason, or it's vice versa ? What ever happened, Titor was sent to 2010 instead of 2000, there can be some connection to Titor knowing Kurisu earlier in the first timeline, and maybe Okabe decided to save her, and why he was there talking to Kurisu, or it just could be something entirely different...

Real men play the VN and do not spoiler themselves through wiki, lol.
In addition to that, wiki is leaving many things out. So it might still surprise you.

Now I get it. So that's why you have a saccharine smile!

I am not going to re-watch ep. 1 until it's all over. I feel it might spoil something for me if I do. Or jinx it. But yeah, I have been wondering about dead assistants ever since, wondering if they were ever going to resolve it for us.

What happened to the satellite? I would have thought, that if demolition people removed it, it would have been something that we would have been shown, and not just the empty hole where it crashed.

Resolving it is part of the main story, so no worries about that.

Don't you think it's weird that a satellite that crashed down to Earth still looks like this?!

@TiYlER
It's going to start explaining in a couple more episodes, be patient. :3

Now that you mention it, yes I do think it's weird for a satellite to look like that after crashing. Unless you dropped it from the crane it was hanging from. Or you take Tyler's pic, and push it over the side, it might look like that.

All these annoying little details, are part of what make this show so interesting to me.

If the satellite crashed down on a building in the first place, the would be no building, or 3 nearest to it as well, if it did crash, cuz normally they just burn down, but usually they are meant to crash in the ocean anyway.

The satellite should be a rain of fire before it ever reached the building, something tells me it was transported via time travel.
