This felt like a filler type episode with the date and everything, but it still hit! The shifted focus onto side characters that haven't been appearing for the past few intense action-filled episodes is pretty refreshing, but definitely feels like the calm before the storm.

The whole drama with Rukako felt underwhelming. It would've worked better if the central focus was on Rukako's gender identity or how they feel after being told a life-changing revelation by Okarin. Instead of focusing on his thoughts on Ruka.

Having Rukako remember the earlier world line memories feels important to the plot.. I'm struggling to visualize what it could mean to the story and future plot points though; like does this mean Okabe can control other's memories by jogging them??
