Are there any pairings in anime with better writing and chemistry than these two? Years later and I've never seen a show that was able to replicate the dynamic they had.
>>280314761 (OP) If there are any they are very few. In my experience there are other good pairings out there but it's very rare to have a pairing with two good characters who would also be able to stand on their own.
>>280314896 The show is wish fulfillment like most other anime. I don't think the time travelling changes that.

>>280314761 (OP) Not really. A few people can mention some meme pairings but Okabe Kurisu is peak.

>>280315221 >ugly He's fine >autistic Exactly what she needs, to match with her own autism. You can feel how they both scratch each other's itches perfectly all the time. >>280315244 Bad bait
>>280315470 Women don't need to rely on men's income anymore. They don't care about a man's achievements. They would prefer to get pumped and dumped by a 6'4" GigaChad in the vain hopes he settles down with her. If this was real, she might settle for Okabe after she's 30+, barren, ran-through, and desperate but of course she won't have the same passion for him as she did with Chad
>>280317245 >We Also I'm just describing exactly what this pairing is. I would put Taiga and Ryuuji from Toradora at least at the same level as these two if not higher.
>>280317328 I and likely others agree with that other anon so yes, >we. I personally almost agree on Taiga and Ryuuji however I don't think they are as good, I just really enjoy what they've got going.

>>280314761 (OP) Both of them are pretty annoying to watch so I don't know why one would want to "replicate their dynamic".
>>280314761 (OP) It's hard to call them a great pairing when I didn't like either one of them. Kurisu is very generic and Okabe is not much better. Steins;Gate needed more fleshed out characters or at least more sympathetic ones.
