Does Steins;Gate have well written characters?

>>282078525 (OP)
They're some of the best in anime even now

>>282078525 (OP)
No

>>282078525 (OP)
They're some of the worst in anime even now

>>282078525 (OP)
I only like Okabe and Kurisu

>>282078525 (OP)
Okabe is the best MC in anime bar none. Most characters are the best in their respective archetypes, for example Kurisu being the best version of the tsundere trope.

>>282078525 (OP)
I don't know
I really wanted to like it but I just couldn't stick through it

>>282078525 (OP)
Yes and this wouldn't even be something up for debate if not for 4chan contrarians. Everyone in the story is super compelling and well thought out.

>>282078525 (OP)
Nobody is written bad, but a few aren't really fleshed out in the original. Something I really liked about 0 was that Daru got some really good moments, as well as some others.

>>282078525 (OP)
They're cliche visual novel character tropes. It's not that impressive.

>>282078525 (OP)
Kurisu is a better waifu than Holo so that puts her at the absolute top of best girls ever.

Why are Steins;Gate threads so shit?

>>282078525 (OP)
Well written? Not really. Way too many of the characters are one dimensional cardboard cutouts to qualify.

>>282078525 (OP)
Nope

>>282078525 (OP)
It's hard to call them well written when I didn't like a single one of them.

>>282078534

There's a reason why Okabe and Kurisu are still fan favorites today.

>>282078621
Okabe is such an unlikable ass that I disagree about anyone in the show being compelling.

>>282078684
Basically this. If you've read at least a few visual novels you can see how derivative and unoriginal everyone in the story is. One obvious one, Daru is just the pervy otaku that nobody likes in any other anime but for some reason he gets a pass for it.

>>282078525 (OP)
Ruka

>>282078743
i think because there's nothing left to talk about but people just like talking about it. i feel it's been a running meme now for like a decade to just make threads saying something about s;g just so it can continue to exist. it annoys me on and off but every few years when i'm in the mood to replay or re watch it i'm thankful there's always a thread up somehow no matter what time, day or year. there's just always a thread.


but even if you want to talk about it there's basically absolutely nothing left to talk about.

personally i love suzuha. i think kurisu as great as she is, is very overrated, mayuri is honestly better in terms of her fuckability and that is due to her cuteness / retardedity.
moaka has the best tits and is the boob girl of the series. she looks amazing in that tight latex suit she uses when she raids the lab with the rounders, and i've never gotten over that, she has the best tits and ass in the whole series, and i would fuck the shit out of her psychotic yet still and silent esophagus. totally flood it with semen.
but agian, suzuha has me completely to this day entranced by her spats/thighs. though i feel as though we never get quite a good enough look at her ass in them. although, damn fine midriff, such a nice toned tummy. i want her.

>>282080015
Ruka is a good character.

>>282078525 (OP)
I'm not the best to answer this because I dislike S;G quite a bit but I don't really see how anyone in your pic is well written. The only thing really notable about the cast is that they're channers, and being a channer is not a personality.

>>282078525 (OP)
Steins;Gate is shit.

>>282078525 (OP)
The only one I liked was Ruka, and that's mostly because he doesn't have a grating personality more than anything exceptional about him as a character.

>>282080316
ruka has probably as generic and bland of a personality as you can get...

>>282080316
>The only one I liked was Ruka, and that's mostly because he doesn't have a grating personality
Nah, that's because you're gay.

>>282080322
Yeah. There is basically nothing there. He's such a blank slate and shell, containing nothing.
>>282080324
Lol that too.

>>282078525 (OP)
Rintaro was well written.

>>282080356
All of them are well written, not just him.

>>282078525 (OP)
No it doesn't

>>282080356
yet no one explains why or how any of it is poorly written. just a bunch of hateful dumb and lethargic parroting niggers.

>>282078525 (OP)
Okabe is great, as well as Mayushii to some extent. The rest, while really boring and cliche, work really well in this series specifically. Kurisu's tsundere tendencies are downright retarded though, can't help but think they're there because they simply have to be

>>282078525 (OP)
While they don’t personally grab me very much, I can acknowledge they are very specific and unusual.

They're fine. Some are just thematic devices. Those ones are the most disappointing.

Day n 13253253825 of /a/ seething about EL PSY CONGROO

0 really soured my view of the characters. Why is Daru suddenly the voice of reason?

>>282081502
I liked Sadkabe but everything else about 0 was pretty retarded. I wish we got the sequel novel instead

>>282078525 (OP)
I don't know but Suzuha Amane is a sex goddess.

>>282082155
thank you.

>>282078584

Based

>>282078525 (OP)
Yes? Anyone who's not a retarded contrarian knows that. Universal opinion.

They call it Steins;Gate because you turn 360 degrees and walk through a stone gate

>>282080857
I don't think Mayuri is a good character. Too much of her personality is just taken up by being a moeblob with a catchphrase and not much else. Like you I also don't get why Kurisu had to be another tsundere instead of being an actual character of her own.

>>282078525 (OP)
The characters suck and they're the main reason why I didn't enjoy the anime that much. Otherwise it could've been a decent time travel story.

>>282078525 (OP)
I think they're okay enough. Didn't stand out too much from what I remember since I watched it so long ago.

>>282078525 (OP)
best characters ever made in anime.

>>282087036
>S;G was 14 years ago
Goddammit.

>>282078525 (OP)
Eh. I could see it either way.

>>282078525 (OP)
Not a single good character in that image.

>>282078525 (OP)
No, they're average at best.

>>282091974
Kill yourself.

>>282078525 (OP)
Main 4 is okay, everyone else is just archetypal cardboards from a dating sim

>>282078525 (OP)
Yes

>>282078743
good question

>>282078525 (OP)
All of them are bad written.
The protagonist is really retard and childish

>>282098895
Never try to speak English again.

>>282099355
He's right though.

>>282078525 (OP)
They're all pretty mid, even Okabe. It felt like even Megumin from Konosuba had more nuance than him.

Where is my AI Kurisu gf?

>>282078525 (OP)
Outside Stein and the tranny, no. Like the cellphone chick is just evil, until she isn't because nobody gave her a command.

Overrated by reddit

>>282102532
It's not overrated by anyone

>>282078525 (OP)
Best OP best characters best plot best writing best directing best OST.

>>282102532
reddit 4chan and discord are the same userbase since 2019.

>>282078525 (OP)
This is the greatest work of fiction ever made.

>>282078592
You need to watch more anime if you think SG's characters are the best in any metric of quality.

>>282078525 (OP)
The reviews on Steam says it has.

>>282103479
I actually have read a few thousand reviews of all the most popular anime and S;G has the most overwhelmingly positive of the bunch.

>>282078525 (OP)
No, people just think that because all of the characters being otaku like the viewer felt novel at the time.

Dead 4chan theory

moeka is the only that really sticks out as bullshit

>>282078525 (OP)
I think that if you enjoyed the big bang theory, then you'll definitely love steins gay

>>282097713
I recognise those thighs.

>>282078525 (OP)
steins gay is shit

>>282078743
Because we have a dedicated hater schizo, i guess we should be honored.

>>282106493
i think chainsaw man and classroom of the elite would be brought up before steins;gate still, by a big bang watcher. it's still an anime that a normalfag would watch but you still hear about literally everything else before any co worker ever brings up steins;gate. i was fucking sick of steins;gate by like 2015 though. every dumb fuck was talking about it and sharing clips of it in english.
these days it's a series for people who consider themselves "deep" in right, self labeled "otaku" crowed yet they still all overlap with "persona5" "doki doki literature club" probably. that's what comes to mind for me when i imagine the current steins;gate fan. also probably enjoys the dub. bazinga faggots will always be dragon ball/naturtards. neither of those series have been good for the past 20 years yet when a co worker or gen z asks if you like anime those are going to always be the only 2 anime they will ever talk about.

steins;gate was admittedly fun but i could never shake the cringe from either it or chaos;head because, you know they're being pander-some especially chaos;head. i still just can't help but want to rape suzuha.

>>282078525 (OP)
They're above average

>>282078525 (OP)
Mostly they range from average to bad. Sometimes I think about if i think Okabe counts as a good character but usually I'd say no.

>>282078525 (OP)
It has one well written character

>>282110948
Yeah I think Okabe is the only one where you can make a case that he's decent, I still don't really think he's a good character though. The rest make no sense and I have no idea what people see in characters like Kurisu who are incredibly generic and bland.

>>282106493
BAZINGA

>>282078525 (OP)
The characters are trash and actively drag down the story.

>>282080065
No he's not.

>>282108173
I agree, the show is cringe but on top of that the fanbase really ruins whatever redeeming qualities the story might have still had.

>>282078525 (OP)
They're good enough to get the story told

>>282078525 (OP)
No

>>282078525 (OP)
Yes, because they made me cry.

>>282119803
I would've liked the show if it could make me cry. All I felt for most of it was annoyance and frustration because the characters were being so retarded.

>>282078525 (OP)
>spend 12 episodes doing barely anything to "develop characters"
>they're still one note
Not at all

Suzuha

>>282122434
She's the sexiest best girl

>>282106978
God damn Kurisu is hot. It sucks that the character designs are one of the only things I really like about S;G.

>>282078525 (OP)
Would it be possible to get another new Steins gate VN or anime?
