Holy hell, what a ride. The first half was slow but the payoff in the second half was absolutely worth it. El Psy Kongroo 🔬

Slow Start, Mind-Blowing Payoff
Review • 9/10
The first 12 episodes tested my patience. Lots of otaku humor and seemingly random slice-of-life moments. But I'm so glad I stuck with it. Episode 12 hits like a truck, and from there it's a non-stop emotional rollercoaster. The time travel mechanics are surprisingly well-thought-out, and the consequences of Okabe's actions feel real and devastating. The relationship between Okabe and Kurisu is one of anime's best romances. The final episodes had me in tears. My only complaint is the slow start, but it makes the payoff even more impactful.
