Anon Babble’s criticism of this show is basically

I don't like reddit so I must hate S;G to fit in with Anon Babble

"Oh my hecking science!"

I never see any explanation here as for why Steins;Gate is somehow bad.

Anon Babble loves Stein's Gate. Newfags who see Anon Babble being contrarian and think they must hate popular things to fit in are silly billies.

It was the most emotionally engaging work of fiction I ever experienced, but that's just my personal opinion. I can see not relating to the characters but still seeing is an objectively good or 7/10. But I don't trust retards that say it's bad

Its shit

Tldr
Read the vn

Does reddit even like Steins gate, I thought they enjoyed shows like Monogatari or Spice and Wolf more.

Show is explicitly about Anon Babble and Anon Babble users, specifically.

This is actually....REDDIT!

It feels like otaku pandering is the only think Steins;Gate has going for it. Like Kurisu being an imageboard poster is the most interesting thing in the whole story, otherwise it's just a generic time travel plot following a dumb MC.

I never watched it because time travel stories are pure shit

I just don't like time travel slop.

Maybe you should actually watch it before coming up with a retarded opinion?

You can't make a good time travel story unless the watcher has never seen one, you had just never seen any before you watched this

okabe is a mc for retards.

That's a big claim for someone who doesn't know what they're talking about.

Trvthnvke.
Immediately ignore posts that say

time travel therefore le BAD

Chaos; head for normalfags

Contrarian

you're so clueless

The first half of the show is unnecessary.

MIRACLE BABY PORNOGRAPHY SUPER STAR

You can't recognize above-average great writing, it is necessary because it creates emotional attachments to the characters and creates kino build up to the thriller shit in the second half.

It's a good anime, but Anon Babble developed a kneejerk reaction to it over the years because many forums proclaim it as one of the best series ever in a hyperbolic manner
Also, I have the feeling that Okabe's behavior gives secondhand embarrassment to many anons because they may have acted like him in their puberty years. There are after all a lot of autists here

It could've been trimmed down. It's a comically large portion of the show.

stale opinion. forced, even.

this guy is hopeless, better do something quick

dudduruu :DDD

The first half of the show is a quirky SoL where we’re meant to be endeared to the characters, and I never got all that endeared, outside of Mayuri which is comical levels of sympathy bait, but okay, it works. Second half wakes up and the plot is enough to keep you awake. I think it’s the definition of middle of the road, fine. Aesthetics? Fine. Characters? Fine. Plot? Fine. Ending? Fine. Humor? Fine. etc. etc.
I can’t for the life of me figure out what about this makes people see 10/10.

Daru has the worst voice I’ve ever heard for an anime character.

He's basically a neckbeard, of course he has a "neckbeard voice".

All your base

Okabe doesn’t make me embarrassed he just didn’t hook me. I think if he was even more embarrassing it might have worked.

I noticed while browsing alts during the outage that S;G and Chaos; series are very popular on them. I saw a number of posts, threads, and even banners with them.
Which just reinforces my opinion that Anon Babble has always loved Sci;Adv and it's just newfag tourists who don't

Madoka is better

On an actual ten-scale, with five being dead average, it’s like a 5.7/10 to me, just eeking above standard.

I proved [site that isn't Anon Babble]

this proves Anon Babble likes show

dumb newfag

I wasn't here in 2011

newfag tourists

My only guess is it feels like a 2005 show which was refreshing in 2011. It balances otaku and not otaku in an interesting way, westoids like more grown up characters, and the plot kicking in halfway through is good recommendation bait for plotfags who would never sit with that much character work otherwise. The hook is solid and it lands the plane.

he is my favorite seiyuu

I don’t follow seiyuu stuff so maybe he has great range, but for this particular character I was taken out of it every time he spoke.

Time travel is against all logic.
Records of history are possible which is travel to the past

If S;G was actually hated on 4chinz then the "you should be able to solve this" meme would have never existed.

It was good. Great even compared to the garbage we get today. However, I doubt normalfags would be able to sit through the first season without getting bored to death.

I’m an avid imageboard user who particularly likes time travel and I don’t get the hype.

>I don't like reddit so I must hate S;G to fit in with Anon Babble

>"Oh my hecking science!"

This is a valid criticism. You should not enjoy the same things as redditors.

inb4 redditors breathe and drink water

Shut the fuck up.

No, I always tell you that is stupid and it doesn't make sense, and then you always tell me to go read the VN because it makes sense there, but I'm never going to do that.

the fuck? Anon Babble hates Steins;Gate now??

First day?

I've literally been coming here on and off for over a decade... In all the time I always got the impression that all the Science Adventure shows and VNs were well regarded.

The extremely dated localized memes are not helping.

"fuck" is a reddit word

I've literally been coming here on and off for over a decade

Most of that must have been "off" then casual fag

Calling things you don’t like reddit is extremely reddit behavior.

gotta try a little harder than that, you uncultured plebeian

i don't care if it's reddit it's just a stupid anime imo

generic time travel plot

It wasn't generic when it came out. The only other time travel work that had as much influence as Steins;gate was YU-NO.

the girl who leaped through Time

Tatami galaxy

Noein

Haruhi S2

there's probably more im forgetting
And that's before SG.

The plot is nonsense
The characters are stupid
The audiovisuals are boring

Those series weren't as influential because they didn't expand on the concept of time travel at all. Meanwhile YU-NO went VERY in-depth with the whole thing, and Steins;gate picked up after it, introducing more familiar terms like worldlines.

The VN is my favorite piece of media ever created behind Bruckner's 9th. But the anime is extraordinarily mediocre and cuts out 99% of what made the VN fun. I can understand why people dislike it if all they've seen was the anime. I remember quitting it after 3 episodes when trying to watch it, then enjoying the VN greatly after my friend nagged me to play it.
