Who fucking cares

his parents owned a market

It broke the immersion for me. I kept watching, hoping they would explain it at some point but never got it
when were his parents even mentioned?

fair point, it’s not really a “just turn your brain off” show.

Play the fucking VN

He's a college student, living of his parents would be the normal assumption. And I don't remember if it was already the case in the original but by the sequel Daru is making serious bank as an app developer

It was mentioned in the 0 VN I believe.

>when were his parents even mentioned?
S;G0.
This, also Daru gets a lot for doing things.

>student
when is he shown doing anything but sulking in his room or wandering around town like a hobo in a labcoat?

>pathetic fat loser
>becomes rich
>gets the hot girl
Was there ever any more blatant otaku wish-fulfillment character?

Patching up plot holes after the main story arc has concluded is not a valid excuse.

Braun wanted to be nice to him since he had been treated well in the past when he was in the dumps wasn't it?
Given how he reacts to hearing rent raises you would assume he's probably just scraping by.

Attached: Idontknow.gif (100x100, 13K)

Another good point. I could never tell what he was doing with his life other than being schizophrenic

at least daru had some ability.

okarin can't do anything but yell about how he's very smart and important.

It was mentioned much earlier in Darling

Braun didn't like him one bit. He clearly considered okabe a pedophile.

>when were his parents even mentioned
Right in the original game, his dad bailed him out when he got caught by the cop.

Haven't read it yet, so i didn't know.

Literally in the first episode when he attends a lecture

that was some sort of public lecture held at a public venue, not a university lecture.

But it's immediately obvious that he's an academic. Also what the other user said, Daru is filthy rich from being a supah hakka.

>he's an academi
he is anything but. If the show makes one thing crystal clear it's that Okarin is a crazy dude wearing a labcoat everywhere to LARP as a mad scientist. Christina is an actual university student/academic.

He mentions pretty early on that both he and Daru go to college and that is also summer break or whatever.

>summer break
that might actually explain it now that I think about it.

I had forgotten schools and universities had those lmao

>an academic
He gets obliterated the second he tries to challenge someone that actually knows what they’re talking about

>Okarin is a crazy dude
Fucking speedwatcher, kill yourself. Perhaps if you weren't so hung up on inane things like how he pays rent, you'd understand WHY he does the mad scientist shtick, one of the biggest parts of his development.

He has to attends lecture for credits if i remember correctly

to be fair, typical college freshmen cannot exactly be expected to be able to debate somebody who has published

So if you're not smart enough to challenge a genius like Christian you're automatically not an academic? Dammit just read the VN people. It's talked about in the original and even stressed in 0 that he tries to just commit to university stuff now

You gotta be pretty crazy to pull that whole steins;gate shit for years on end for some thot

I didn't speedwatch, I was just drunk most of the time.

>calling Mayuri a retarded girl
It's clear you're just scrounging for any reason to hate the anime rather than actually accept you're wrong. You should probably kill yourself.

It's a fucking story you degenerate piece of shit. Maybe if people like you tried to actually watch this show and not spout this faggotery out of their asses we can have civil discussions. Stop thinking that because you didn't like something in it the show is bad. That's not how criticism works you retard

I loved the anime but Okarin was straight up wasting his life before the time machine

Because all people live life productively and to their full potential. Get a life mate.

How? He was a college student who made slapstick gadgets for fun and took care of a daughterfu. Sounds fulfilling to me.

No, a lot of people don’t. But Okarin should absolutely not be someone you project onto.

Okabe's life pre-time travel is infinitely more productive, healthy and fulfilling than my own.

I don't hate your wife, what I'm saying is that Mayuri is mentally retarded. As in, the classical sense, being one of the ~16% of people with an IQ under 85.

AH yes I forgot. The human race has assigned you to decide what each character should or shouldn't do. My sincerest apologies retard

>Mayuri is mentally retarded
If you want us to believe you, maybe stop handing us evidence of being a speedwatcher on a silver platter.

Thanks for your based opinion. Now jump from a cliff

Pretty sure he calls his mom when trying to find out about the song

You literally have no excuse to not play the VN now animeonlyfags, you can literally WATCH the anime expanded with the VN text with S;G Elite, and its on Steam.

Legit question:
Why could Okarin remember shit better than other people between time hops?

Elite is a worse version of both the anime and the VN, though

He mentions that before summer he was working part-time to pay the bills. Is also mentioned the rent is dirt cheap.
If you're not trolling, this is a weird thing to be mad about

nope vns writing shines above all

Okay so even tho it was said multiple time in both SG and sg0, I'll say it again. Basically everyone has reading steiner but with different degrees in their brains. Okarin already activated it when he was kid for some reason or another. Other characters also develop reading steiner throughout the series like kurisu when she starts having memories of all the times she helped him trying to save mayuri. And mayuri when she keeps having dreams about her death and okarin's attempt at saving her. There's mayuri's friend what's her name in 0 that remembered all the times mayuri died. Etc etc... Basically anyone can develop reading steiner with enough jumps through timeliness and memory prodding

It cuts out and changes scenes from the VN though, while being a slower version of the anime.

Its a mysterious power lol
The only thing close to an explanation is the illness he felt as a child during y2k

Hows that? I've played the original VN twice and watched the anime 3 times, so I disagree.

Attached: IMG_0463.jpg (1167x872, 281K)

Just remembered the reason he activated as a kid was because of what suzuha did during y2k and how she changed the time line to avoid that crisis. That led to him experiencing a time-line jump for the first time

>for some reason or another
That’s the part I was curious about, I remember the other characters getting their memories from other timelines but couldn’t remember what brought out the reading Steiner. Just something I wish they didn’t gloss over with a mysterious illness.

My guess is he died from illness right during a major world line divergence during Y2K and some weird Schrodinger's cat scenario occurred

See

Elite not that bad if you already read original VN and want to read in automode, it's pretty relaxing.

Yeah that’s a satisfying enough explanation for me lol, thanks user

...

>lol but what do they eat??? XDDD
Being an obnoxious autist who is incapable of suspending his disbelief doesn't make you cool.

I got the impression it was a genetic thing, with some people being able to remember better than others. I'm pretty sure there were a few points in both SG and SG0 where other people remembered timejumps as well, just not to the extent Okarin did.

I can't believe they didn't show every character using the bathroom at least twice a day. There's no way Okarin's bladder wouldn't have exploded after all those time jumps.

Not OP but sometimes you notice some shit that you just can’t get out of your head and it begins to ruin the show the more you think about it

IFKR seriously how can retards enjoy such a obviously stupid show. Smh user baka

It cuts out the ability to manually bring up your phone whenever you want, which ruins certain scenes, namely ones where Moeka is communicating with you, takes out the option for certain phone triggers as well so that eliminates a few scenes from Elite that were present in the VN.
They didn't bother cleaning up certain scenes, so there's still some TV Broadcast level QUALITY throughout. The general slower pace of being a VN ends up with a lot of back and forth dialogue cutting to and from very similar, if not exactly the same head shots of people talking for a while and I find it to be more repetitive than just having character portraits on screen.
You're also missing out on the original VN's CGs.
Elite's also full price. No reason you should spend more money on an inferior version of something.

In OP's words, 'this show is fucking retarded' yeah that's obviously the case user

He's actually pretty smart on paper (considering he was one who developed the nixie tube timeline reader), but Daru and Kurisu are a step above Okabe (considering Daru was the one built an actual time machine for human travel and Kurisu made the phonewave time travel machine).

But you're expecting too much for 18 year old Okabe who's just a university freshman and not even taking school seriously at the moment. (Compared to Okabe from 0 who was actually trying hard to get become an overseas student at Kurisu's university.

Live stage adaptation is so common, almost every popular franchise got one.

Bro, Okabe has to go find them to give them the time machine battery. They do not show him saving them in the CN which they do in the anime.

>how is he gonna continue milking steins;gate?
user did you see this

Parents paid for it. I think Okabe also has some money saved as he points that out a several points of the VN. Daru also makes some money as a supa hakka. Mayushi sells off her body for bananas and food. Also the rent is like pretty low.

Huh, I never picked up on Daru / Gil being the same VA but I can hear it now

I love how people always find the stupidest cases to complain about when the show isn't even trying to be ultra realistic. They sucessfuly alter the past by sending mails using a goddamn microwave and you are worried about why he isn't going to lectures and how is he paying rent when those can be explained easily.

In all seriousness I just fucking hate how they are too pussy to just give them a happy ending, it’s not like they have to worry about a particular girl as if it were some harem anime where they will call for the mangaka’s death if they write the wrong ending.

Okabe realizes about the threat of Committee, so ever since the events of Steins;Gate he stops being a lazy shit and starts being serious on stopping them
Kurisu and Maho had an active role in stopping the major threat
By the end of the game the robotic club members met with the labmems

I always wonder what is going to happen to beloved franchises hundreds or thousands of years into the future, assuming the apocalypse doesn't happen by then.

TV in general has only really been around for 100 years. Do they just reboot the same shows every 50 years forever, does stuff like this become lost and forgotten, is it some kind of artifact to be studied? We now have all kinds of high fidelity data storage unlike the age of books. Are people 1000 years from now going to have to dig through a milennia's worth of anime to watch?

We'll never run out of fiction, user. So long as humans exist, human creativity will exist.

Media disappears very easily even in the current age of effortless copying and distribution. The holes won't be cavernous like they were before but lost media will never stop being a thing. Think of all the artists that have nuked their accounts, file hosting services that have been raided and crippled, videos that quietly died and were never reuploaded etc. in just the past couple of decades.

But most of this isn't critical information unless you choose to be extremely nitpicky about some very vague and unrelated plot details.

The whole plot can't happen if they get kicked out on the street and v&d by child protection services or whatever.

No OP, but the anime could have explained some things better. For example, they didn't really explain well why they had access to the LHC, and that was a really great foreshadowing in the VN

Congratulations, nobody cares if the anime is a failed work. Adaptations are invariably shit, Steins;Gate's is another on the shitheap. Read the source material, in every conceivable circumstance.

I love Moeka's legs.

pretty sure its implied daru helps with money through his hacking side jobs and such, youre not paying much attention for someone who is immersed

They pay for it and could've been working part-time, getting allowance or even Daru working as a gay stripper for some cash off screen which was never mentioned for all that it really matters.
Point is that it's not something completely unbelievable and has no influence on the actual plot, we already know Braun was giving them the apartment for a very cheap price because Suzuha asked him to.

it is if it's not explained. Completely took me out of the story.

Mr. Braun lets him stay for a pittance because Suzuha helped him in the past and told him to take pity on Okabe.

Of all things the anime didn't explain, you have the biggest problem with the fucking rent?

Okabe is a university student and most likely financed by his parents.
Daru has his part-time work and can raise funds.
Braun giving Okabe the dirt cheap discount.

Why do you retards need absolutely everything laid out for you? It's such an irrelevant and inconsequential thing. You have severe autism to let it hamper you this much.

If parents aren't mentioned the default inference is that there is no contact with them.

No, it isn't. The default inference is that the parents don't play a role in the plot. Holy balls, you are one retarded motherfucker.

>default inference is that the parents don't play a role in the plot.
Exactly. But instead the plot relies on continual active involvement by the parents.

Might as well end an episode with a character getting shot and then have them be completely fine in the next one. Sure, the default inference is that ER exists but at least acknowledge the fact that ER showed up.

>How was she able to afford camping equipment despite having no conceived source of income?
doesn't one episode LITERALLY show her working at her job

>oh yeah all these plot inconsistencies were solved by these characters in the background who were never shown or even mentioned

You must hate 98% of anime if you nitpick this obsessively.

Nitpicking muh plotholes in pop media doesn't make you seem intelligent.

The series takes place in the span of a few weeks, get out of this fucking thread you goldfish.

Attached: okabesensible.png (295x363, 111K)

I wouldn't nitpick something like TTGL in this fashion because it outright admits it's retarded and wants you to go with it. S;G pretends to be consistent.

Okabe's flat is not plot. It's the setting. The show does not revolve around him owning a flat, it revolves around fucking time travel.
I seriously hope you're just baiting at this point because I'm struggling to believe someone could be this fucking dense.

But okabe and that showgirl are shown to have inhabited the facility for a while.

People like you who need absolutely everything spelled out to them clear as day are the reason anime have to shoehorn in shiteating exposition so much. You are cancer.

The distinction between plot and setting is arbitrary and semantic.

wait, you can actually do this in the VN?

The fact that his inability to swim is moe.

So he has something over the rest of his crew. He's complete dead weight otherwise.

Oh no not this meme again.

Okabe doesn't go through with it but that scene happens

so what happens if you go down this path? or is it not a choice?

If you mean how to you get to that point, it's if you don't undo the D-mail where Okabe chases Suzuha, this means that Okabe has to use the time leap machine to create a 2 day time loop that he lives through hundreds of times and starts to loose it.The day you focus on is a bike ride on the second day of the time loop and at one point Daru, Kurisu and Mayuri leave to look for somewhere to eat leaving Okabe and Suzuha together where that scene unfolds.
If you mean if you choose to rape her, you can't, she twigs on that Okabe has trapped himself in a time loop and they decide going back in the broken time machine might mean it wont break and the route ends on them both leaving for 1975.

God that route was twisted, even little things like Okabe having memorized the number plate we so unsettling.My favorite bad ending

I suppose this just means they go back and get stuck there with amnesia, right? I have only watched the show.

> or just convenience?
She interrupts his thoughts of raping her by saying he looks like the guy from groundhog day.
>they go back and get stuck there with amnesia, right?
That's probably what hapend but,as far as I know, we've never gotten any confirmation.

so going back to 1975 is treated like game over, right?

Yes, it's the Suzu bad end

She acts like she's a bit slow, especially in the dub, and in the vn she gets confused and hides in a corner at the lecture at the start of the vn.
He even has a monologue that says "Mayuri is a bit...special."

Exactly. She was clearly characterized as a """special""" person. Not that there's anything wrong with being a retard, but Okae is a dumb fucking cuck for arranging his whole life just to pander to this one dumb thot.
