now that the dust has settled, was this a good anime?
>>281857757yes, do you have a problem with that, contrarian nigger?
>>281857757World's leading anime expert (IQ 170) here.Yes, this was a good anime.
>>281857823no
>>281857757Not really.
>>281857757>it took 15 years for the dust the settlewow, the anime must have been REALLY good and had a big cultural impact for the dust to take that long to settle.

>>281857757Just watch Re:Zero instead.
>>281857757It's just boomer Mushoku Tensei.A cliched weeb-pandering slop that, paradoxically, is loved by normalfags tricked into believing this is some smart and mature art that is so much better than the usual weeb-pandering slop (which it literally is).
>>281857757It had decent prod and a couple of cute girls, otherwise nothing special, the plot sucks, the protagonist is annoying, 6/10
>>281857757very good but not a masterpiecetime travel concept is executed well, but the anime covers just the basics and the theme "what if a group of 18 years old build a time travel machine" is also executed well, but you have to take it with a grain of salt. Death Note is way better.
>Reddit;Gate>goodkek
>>281857757>281857757yes
>>281857757>r*ddit forgot about it so I can finally admit it was greatCan't comment, I translated spin-offs back in the days.
>>281860944reddit haven't once forgotten about it for even a minute. what are you talking about
>>281857757It was alright.
>>281857757>the dust has settledAnon the anime is old as fuck its 15 years ago. It's literally covered in dust.
>>281857757Its genius lies in the fact that the writer used so many meaningless episodes to make audiences forget the alpha timeline so we can get that big twist near the end that made it legendary.It's a pretty cool gimmick but it makes rewatch extremely unbearable.
>>281857757It's mediocre if you've seen a few time travel stories like this before, Steins;Gate cribs off the standard time loop format too much to feel fresh.>>281862959I was already expecting since episode 1 that the time travel back to the beginning finale was in the cards when they started dropping all of that extremely unsubtle foreshadowing, it's just too typical for a show like this.
I riked it
>>281863169>time travel stories like thisSo, what are some examples of this?Do you realize that the concept of bending the flow of time is not what makes up a story as a whole? Just because you could call something a "time travel story" doesn't mean that it's bound to be even remotely similar to the other instances of such.>I was already expecting since episode 1 that the time travel back to the beginning finale was in the cards whenYeah, no shit. The first chapter/episode is literally called "Prologue of the Beginning and the End". What makes the supposed "twist" good is how and why we get there, not the sole reason of it existing as part of the script of a story with time travel. Consequently, the idea of "returning to the beginning" in a time travel story not being "fresh" has no bearing on the quality of the product, so it doesn't make sense to mention something like that as if it supports your claim about S;G being mediocre.That is, unless you're retarded and this is the best you could manage when trying to rationalize you not connecting with the characters in a character drama story. Then, I suppose, it does make sense to say that.
>>281857757I was a 7/10, not bad but definitely overrated.
>>281864349It* I meant steins gate
Good adaptation but visually ugly in comparison to the VN
It has Tuturu so it's good
>>281857757Steins;Gate is shit.
>>281862959I enjoyed rewatching it because I like all the characters. The first few episodes are basically a SoL anime. The first rewatch is also the one where you notice all the little details that come into play later on. I think I also enjoyed the anime more because I went in blind and had now idea that it was going to be a time travel anime.
>>281857757I expected to like it but it was just mediocre.
>>281857757it isdaga otoko da
>>281863611>some examplesEven cartoons have had plotlines like this years before S;G did it>Just because you could call something a "time travel story" doesn't mean that it's bound to be even remotely similar to the other instancesIt didn't have to be the same but that didn't stop the story from doing the same shit anyways.
>>281867440holy retard not only didn't provide an example of a story that presumably does s;g's job better but kept insisting that utilization of time travelling mechanics in narrative is all there is that identifies a story
It's good about an 8/10 if we're being honest. Not the best anime ever like retards would lead you to believe.
>>281864574It looks fine, you're just picky. Huke's art style isn't that great anyways.
>>281869122I exaggerated desu, it doesn't ugly, just... extremely fucking dull in comparison, they should have added some texture or something
>>281857757It's average/10
whatever happened to the VN remake or whatever cash grab they’re doing?
People who hate things just because reddit likes it are putting way too much investment into reddit than actual redditfags.
>>281857757It's overrated shit.
