12 Moments in Anime: #7 The turning point

Steins;Gate is undoubtedly one of the best shows to air this year. It’s also one of the most well received, ranking at number three on MAL. (Which I still disagree with.) But it took a long time to get so great. The first half was full of witty humor and other interesting things that slowly moved the plot along. But it was very, very slow.

However, the end of episode twelve was then Steins;Gate finally kicked it into gear. Episode twelve fulfilled a desire that I had from the very beginning. It was the moment when all of the underlying danger finally rose to the surface. The moment when I finally started looking forward to seeing the next episode every week.

Moment #7: Seeing the HanaKana moeblob getting a well deserved bullet to the head. (As well as getting hit by a train, etc.)
