>time travel is le bad>but only when evil people use it not me
>>283259357Baby's first "complicated" time travel story. Same as Interestellar, the only people I know who love them are midwits.
>if I change the past, the future changes too?>save us landlord professor who we didn't recognize until the plot demanded itSteins Gate is so fucking dogshit. Wanting to fuck Kurisu doesn't make it good.
>>283259357Real ones know that All You Need is Kill is the best Jap time travel story
Sex with Suzuha
>>283259357>retard gets filtered because of his dimwit IQSteins;Gate is very good at outing the stupid people it seems.
>>283259357The whole plot related to SERN is just dumb conspiracy theory garbage.
>>283259387what do you watch?
>>283259357Your only mistake is thinking Steins;Gay had any thought put into its themes to begin with.
>>283259357Bitcoin was made by a time traveler btw, it's so obvious
>>283259935Chainsaw Man
>>283259357Greatest anime of all time according to dumb redditors
>>283260828unlike you 4chan finest anime connoisseur with more than a hundred harem and isekai shows under your belt
>>283259357>>283259387The time travel stuff is cool, but that's not the main reason it's so popular. People like the cast and the romance between Okabe and Kurisu. If the majority really cared about time travel shows for the time travelling aspect itself Primer would be a lot more popular.
>>283261015Primer is a way better story than Steins;Gate.
EL
PSY
its social commentary. nukes are fake. the jews are working on stealing iran and russias time machines.
>>283259357I'm sure it's bad when he uses it, he learns that at the end, are you unironically retarded? This series isn't even complicated for you to not get it
>>283262841like many anons, OP is retarded
>>283262841Is it? Becuase he kept using it until he arrived to a timeline he wanted.
this songs greathttps://youtu.be/8uIdMKzEHwE?list=RD8uIdMKzEHwE
>maybe classic everyone liked 15 years ago is actually... le bad?I hate newfags so much, why do they feel the need to post their garbage on hereGo to a different website you clearly donÄt fit in
>>283263062>Shit;Gate>classicEvery time.
>>283259357>but only when evil people use it not meThis is a bait thread but everything bad that happens occurs because Okabe and co. used time travel to fuck around
>>283262902The entire plot structure revolves around reversing the effects of the d-mail and making it so time travel is never invented in the first place, are you retarded?
>>283263661A lot of the weight of those consequences is lost when they are able to just perfectly fix the timeline at the end and avoid every bad thing that happens.
>>283259357It's baby's first time travel for a reason. I don't think it holds up nearly as well if you've seen some time travel fiction before.
>>283259357SG: Butterfly effect this, butterfly effect that. SG0: (...).
>>283259357Everything time travel releated is absolute garbage, but the first 11 episodes are kind of good.
>>283264396SG already breaks its own Butterfly Effect idea in the second half when they introduce Attractor Fields, which are conveniently placed This Thing Must Always Happen events.
What is it specifically about Steins;Gate that buckbroke so many people?
>>283264601People like >>283264428 and >>283264319 that get inherently filtered by anything with time travel
>>283263747And why is this a bad thing?
>>283264672I found conveniently stopping World War 3 by beating up your hot love interest's evil Dad to be pretty shallow as a story resolution.
>>283259935Frieren
>>283263683So it's only good when our heroes use it, got it.
>>283259357babbies first "smart" anime
>>283259357Steins;Gate doesn't really have much in the way of thoughtfulness in its storytelling. It's just a thriller, and it's about average at that.
>>283259738S;G fans are such pseudointellectual retards
>>283260935>he doesn't realize that SG is thinly veiled haremshitSad.
>>283259357I only like Daru.
>>283268776It is the only character that actually shows an ounce of intelligence in the entire show, so yeah, It would have made more sense if the girls drooled for him.
>>283268776>His only personality is being a perverted otakuGarbage character.
I'm convinced it's a Discord server dedicated to this.
Now tell me everything bad about S;G and why do you think it's a bad anime, seriously
>>283259357>when bad people use a thing for bad purposes, it's bad>when good people use a thing for good purposes, it's goodYou think? They even went out of their way to show that the heroes using it for unnecessary bullshit usually had unintended consequences.
>>283269977The characters are shallow and one note if you have any familiarity with their archetypes
>>283269889He said Daru, not Okashit
>a bunch of Big Tech oligarchs seize control over society to force a de-industrialization agenda, return to 17th century living standards...just not for Committee of 300 of their Outer Party, though, tehee peroor>global thermonuclear war happens between sovereign nation-states waging war over a time travel device that lets them alter historyor>chuuni maddo scientist finds one timeline with an indeterminate future and nothing ever happensNOTHING EVER HAPPENS
>>283270095Archetypes like Okabe's chuunibyou slowly unravelling as he realizes shit gets real? Or Daru being both a creepy pervert and a genuinely altruistic and skillful member of the team? Or Mayushii acting like a moe retard just to put up a front? Tell me you dropped Stein's gate after the second episode without telling me you dropped Stein's gate after the second episode
>>283259448>landlord professor who we didn't recognize????
>>283259357Would you guys date her?
>>283269977Mayuri always being forced to die because of muh fate is contrived garbage storytelling.
>>283259357Steins;Gate is shit.
>>283259935HxH
>>283259935Better anime
>>283270545It's amazing how hard you're trying to make these shitty characters sound good. Yes Daru is a pervy otaku but he's also NICE and A HACKER so he's definitely a good well rounded character and not a one dimensional cardboard cutout.
>>283259357Why are Steins;Gate threads always so shit
>>283264428I would agree the first part was good but I hated Okabe so that made it a big slog.
>>283261015>romance between Okabe and Kurisu>They never canoncially get togetherFucking trash series, I'm almost mad that I ever wasted my time on it. Chiyomaru is a hack.
>>283273669>He got invested in a romance with a boring generic tsundereYour own fault desu.
>>283273669>Chiyomaru is a hackYou could've figured this out just by watching S;G the first time around
>>283259357Time travel for dimwits
>>283274983That's Re:Zero.
>>283275301Rezero at least has 1 or 2 good characters in it so no.
>>283275553Damn dude you need to work on your standup routine.
>>283275301Remind me the part where they travel years into the future or past?
>>283275654Watch it again. Or don't, it's terrible.
>>283268776>>283269889He should've been attracted to Suzuha, at least until he finds out the truth. At least I don't remember him being attracted to her, but I only read the VN once years ago.
>>283261015Exactly it's just funny and has good characters.The plot isn't that important desu.I don't think it's a reddit thing either. 4chan is a Dr. Pepper site. Or at least /g/ is.
>>283275865>has good charactersNot really.
>>283273509Okabe is easy the most annoying character ever made, without to mention the epitome of a smart character written by a retard.
>>283259560The real Real Ones know that that is totally false
>>283259357>time travel is bad when used by evil people but not me>but me using time travel causes evil people use time travel so me using time travel is also badIt's the same with any breakthrough tech. You invent a shotgun to shoot yourself a dinner out of the sky, fat bastard general appropriates it, multiplies it and uses them to genocide a small african nation. Evil people will always use everything to their advantage.
>>283276176He's not exactly meant to be that smart, is he? His whole character is a larp that got in over his head.
>>283273206I mean, have you ever seen a fat hackerman who wasn't a pervert?
>>283276248The real issue is that once that tech comes out it's out. There's no uninventing guns or AI tech for example. But for some reason Steins;Gate thinks you can fuck up time travel and then put the genie back into the bottle and just fix everything. The story is thematically super lame and way too convenient.
>>283276272That's the thing, he is smart, but he larps as a mad genius so you end up thinking he's actually a retard. Force him out of it like in Zero, or luck out with an autistic fit of spontaneous creation (half of the lab gadgets besides the microwave are actually neat and a few even have business potential if patented and sold, though other half is worthless), and he's firmly above average intelligence.
>>283276309I mean... It's time travel. You need time travel to uninvent guns, but you can't because there is no time travel. But if you have time travel, you should be able to uninvent time travel, cycling its existence into a brief period that will be inaccessible once time travel is uninvented.
>>283276272Well yeah, he never shows it in any sort of shape, yet the series keep telling you he's the smartest person ever, that's the definition of a badly written character.
>>283276392>It's time travelI know, and I'm actually being more lax with the story for that reason. The idea is that if time travel existed, you would already know about it, and since time machines exist in the Steins;Gate universe there's no reason why shit like the time machine showing up in episode 1 wouldn't happen more often especially since time travel is getting invented around this time. But I suspend disbelief because it's a scifi story.What I don't suspend disbelief on is that Steins;Gate creates a forced situation where Mayuri must always die no matter what, which I don't think the show does a good job of justifying, and then at the end they manage to solve the problem perfectly and undo every bad thing that happened with no downsides or loose ends, which I also don't think was justified.I guess I just find the writing in this show to be way too convenient, both in creating problems and solving them.
>>283276300Well if the goal was to make the character a stereotype they certainly succeeded.
>>283263582highly rated and popular show from over a decade ago = classicit pulled a lot of cheap stunts to get that emotional punch that made it appealing to wide audiences. every show that gets widespread popularity beyond its genre is like that, though. a lot of anime fans back then were pseuds trying too hard to make their hobby appear more "adult" and sophisticated, so they overrated their goofy harem comedy with surprising serious moments.who cares? still enjoyed it.
>>283276888I think it's easier to square if you enjoyed the show. I didn't so the massive acclaim and the shows flaws both become more annoying.

>>283271375Her ending does make her a compelling choice.
