yes

No.

Tried surviving through it, but with the combination of the MC being a total faggot, and the show being boring I dropped it at episode 6. Fat guy was fine though I liked him.

>MC is insufferable.

You need to die.

The pleb filter strikes again

shit i will keep watching, hope it gets better.

You either like the characters or don't. If you've given it 3 episodes and don't care for them, then drop it now because it's a character-centric show and won't get any better.

He’s literally the definition of obnoxious and insufferable, every other character is fine but he singlehandley ruined the show for me.

Watch until episode 13. Hell, would you really drop a 50 episodes show after watching just 3?

Isn't it 24 EP tho

Read the VN.

I had a friend who had the same problem. Yes, it gets better.

The first 8 episodes or so are buildup (that alone is a massive flaw for the show). It'll get better.

The alternative season has 23 episodes and was a good complement to the whole story.

>good compliment to the whole story
Steins;gate 0 is what you get when you take all the bad things from Steins;gate and make a show out of it.
>pic related
The left is mayuri in original, right is mayuri in zero. Same applies to other characters.

Imagine having such awful taste that you're bored during the SoL buildup.

SoL are usually boring

s;g 0 felt like they wanted to do a sequel but had no idea how, and went for the fill in the blanks side /prequel.

You probably don't belong on Yea Forums. (Get out.)

no u

It's all characterbuilding. Up until episode 12. Get through with it. It will be worth it.

Thats why it gets so good. That foolish character has endure much psychological suffering from ep13 on

no

Just for your information, he won the best male character award in that year's Newtype Anime Awards.

This, it's a lot better.

All the characters are annoying spergs aside from the pig-tailed chick who has to have trauma as an excuse to not act like an annoying sperg. In fairness that is what it's target audience is like too though.

>Fat guy was fine though I liked him.
He's one of the worst ones (even worse in the sequel where the writer blatantly tries really hard to make him "cool" too), I'm not sure if there's a single actually likeable hacker character in anime

If they were shit? Yes, obviously. Why is this even a question?

>not liking best boy

Why do people with taste this bad exist.

And Black Panther won Oscars that it didn’t deserve, what’s your point nigger awards mean nothing.

very unfaithful, friend

Bottom line, if you are only getting to Steins;Gate in *2019*(!!!), you are still new to both Yea Forums and to anime.
You have either an undeveloped sense of taste, or bad taste.

I watched Death note when i had already watched like 350 shows

To be fair, sometimes it takes a while to make your way to classic series.

I'm not defending it, but iirc Black Panther only won the costumes and music score, it's hardly anything noteworthy

It definitely gets better, it's a little slow at first but once you reach the middle it turns into one of the best rides ever. I watched it in late January and absolutely loved it. And the final episode and the final scene is pure kino.

The genius of Steins;Gate is that it tries to trick you that it's bad during the first 10 episodes.

hes meh in steins gate but in steins gate 0 hes fucking annoying with that scared face

Stop watching man of culture series and stick with your shounen crap.

Only normalfags are saying that first half of Steins Gate was bad. It was great actually and these idiots aren't even aware that they loaded 2nd part so much because of 1st part.
They properly introduced characters and world. Added great atmosphere and a lot of anime tropes (which is positive, again - criticizing anime for using anime tropes is immediately revealing brainlets, exactly like usage of buzzwords like weeb).

>buzzwords
>normalfags
okay...

No it does not, not in any way. It's trash-tier shit for cringeworthy teenage weebs.

Yet more proof that anime has no quality control and its standards are spiraling ever down the drain

It is okay to use tropes, but you can't just do the same thing that has been done a million times in exactly the same way with no iteration or genuine variance beyond set dressing and claim it's interesting. It's not. Tropes have their place but most of the ones that Anime has are due to the absolutely god-awful writing that was the standard in the early phases of the medium.

Also, a lot of what you call 'anime tropes' are actually Kabuki theater tropes, making them culturally irrelevant to the Japanese because they were simply lifted from a foreing culture and applied as-is with very little change. These trends were then enforced as rules, as the degenerative culture of homogenous submission that Japan has always had decided they were "tradition".

Absolutely plebian

Stein's;Gate is a masterpiece and your inability to appreciate it is a reflection on your own shortcomings as an anime fan.

Read the VN you nerd

>Does it get better?
What the fuck do you think, inbred? S;G is actually a masterpiece by anime standards, and the slow build-up was a necessary tool to achieve that. You have to remember the OG source was a VN where it's common and expected to entrench readers into the story, characters, and setting via a semi-long common route.

When I first started out watching it I was bored to death but it slowly picked up. Now it's one of my favorite anime. Thought I wonder if watching it together with Yea Forums and the great times we had plays a role in this.

No, it doesn't. It's one of those proclaimed "best anime" by the vast majority of weebs that actually are gargabe, like FMAB or NHK. If you're just watching it because of its reputation: just don't. It's not worth your time.

But NHK is great

Sure mate

"lol he's just playing le epic contrarian meme to bait us XDXD"

You guys do anything besides getting defensive and laugh in group at people that has an opinion that differs from yours? Because from what i've seen that's your only protocol in threads like these

It's generic time travel harem bullshit. Rather watch Re:Zero.

I love Suzu-tan

Yes, but still shit.
Don't bother with the VN or Zero either.
