The pacing on this is dreadful. 10 minutes of slow-paced dialogue, 5 minutes of crisis introduction, 5 minutes of action, and wait until next week for resolution. My biggest pet peeve is when they don't make episodes complete in themselves, like they're breaking up a really long movie. I know that's to be expected when adapting a VN, but if they have to write around turning a (somewhat) non-linear story into a linear one, the least they could do is edit it to not feel like you're being drip-fed the VN.

No.851126
Mayuri was so much better as his friend rather than another fucking love interest in the harem. I hate that 0 is essentially just about her love for the chuuni. She was his childhood friend and the absolute purity he wanted to protect. That was all she fucking needed to be. To make her out to be a serious contender to Kurisu, especially when they also added yet another but actually successful love interest in Maho (even though that entire thing has been largely missing in the anime aside from the AI and Finn making nonstop comments about it), was a terrible mistake. The first S;G was about how much Okabe loved Kurisu and all the shit he went through to save her. This was something the anime improved, despite how much people like to complain about it; it didn't need to be a harem and it was completely unnecessary. But now, even though the main motivation and goal is still to reach SG and save Kurisu (even if Okabe won't admit it himself yet), they're throwing a bunch of other girls in as part of the canon harem. It's so completely unnecessary.
Especially because we already know that it ends with him being reunited with Kurisu, so the others failed (except perhaps Maho in the future timeline without Kurisu, but that would get overwritten anyway). And of course there are the many flaws with 0, such as how it's a big loop of wasted time that retcons the personalities of the characters in the original story. Literally none of this matters because they're just going back to just before the ending of the original, which worked just fine on its own and was stronger for it too.
Oh, and as has been said a few times, the roof scene was terrible. Another roof scene that was terrible was the one with Maho and Okabe a few episodes back, where the puddles were completely different in between each shot and it was bad enough to distract me. One shot they would be standing in the middle of the puddles, another they would be on dry ground without moving. It was an important scene, so they should at least have tried to avoid making such an obvious and distracting visual mistake.

I don't remember what else because S;G0 is a horrible mess with its many overlapping routes In some of them the suit killer is Suzuha's mom, except it's actually Kagari that had a plastic surgery to look like her, in some routes it's Kagari and I think in some it's even Reyes, who the anime has largely ignored?

I agree with you there. S;G prints money, hence its proliferation. But at the same time the science in S;G is more pronounced and has a greater impact on the story. Its also believable, up to a point. The other Science adventure titles don't really have that impact. Like in Chaos;Head, its supposed to be psychology stuff, right? Turns out that 99% of it is just a red herring. Eventually the story goes off into its own thing and the psychology aspects are dropped. I'll admit I don't know jack-shit about R;N though. But id its anything like C;H, then its science part is probably lacking or absent entirely. We would've had something regarding paranormal activity but O;N was sent straight to anime production without testing it out as a vn first. Which then resulted in that particular mess.
So no, the other Science Adventure titles did not do as well as S;G.

Well it creates a copy of your memories, compresses the data with a black hole and then it goes back to the phone microwave and into the past. I guess it's not that far fetched that they found a copy on the computer they used for the buffering.

This part is so dumb I wish they would've hand waved it with magic or used something else. It's like putting your dog in a blender so you can take him to school in a bottle with you. They are supposed to be scientists but miss such a simple thing and yet succeed it looks ridiculous.

>How'd the time leap machine put him in Amadeus?
Original Okabe got mind broken by Leskinen and had his mind uploaded to Amadeus so that they could upload Okabe repeatedly and continue interrogating him if he should break/get killed. If I remember correctly his mind/self was in Amadeus until he got reuploaded to his body in 2036 by the resistance members who had rescued his body. In other words. Since original Okabe is dead, you are now following Amadeus Okabe who is in the computer.

How does Okabe in 2011 use a time leap machine to go back in time and end up as an Amadeus copy in 2025 and wait until 2036 to get copied back into Husk Okabe?

Technically, it's been established within the series that once someone - Okabe in this instance - leaves the timeline, everyone's memories get re-arranged in such a way that makes it seem as if the leaving party did not exist at all. In this case, once Okabe leaps away, everyone could forget about Amadeus being literal spyware so they delete it now.
But of course, this isn't explained anywhere within the show so it looks like botnet removal is played for cheap drama.

Anime-only fag here, I don't believe this was ever established in the anime, or if it was, they're not bothering with it anymore.
If you pay attention to the dialog it seems that they're using Amadeus-Kurisu to generate a patch to modify the Amadeus source code. This plus instructions are being sent back in time so that Daru can break into VCU and patch the Amadeus code to cause it to destroy all of Kurisu's memory data. They're not destroying her in the present, but this is kicking off a chain of events that are 100% going to erase her, hence them all bawling their eyes out.

It was like that in the VN as well, which is my biggest gripe with it. This episode is more or less faithful to the VN, as compared to the last 4 or so episodes of filler and plot changes. It was a big fuck you to figure out how to unlock the true ending and it ends up being a tiny scene that gets summed up here in less than 5 minutes. It's fine that they leave some of it to the viewer's interpretation, but it still feels unsatisfying. The anime delivered far better on this scene, as I was confused as to what actually happened when I read the VN. I also got the implication from the VN that his time machine also doesn't have enough fuel to power the unit that keeps it oriented in space-time, so they're all left behind in a desolate wasteland in the pre-historical era. I don't know if it's because I'm an idiot or if even more was left to the imagination, I can't really remember.

Yes, that's it. Zero exists only to be an alternative bad end to the first one that creates new problems and solves them in order to bring it all back to the first ending. It's completely unnecessary and retcons the characters in the first one. Absolutely nothing that happens in it is of any importance because it only exists to bring it all back to the ending you already saw, and all the things that happened in the loop are completely pointless. Maho no longer has any connection to any of them except Kurisu, and you know how often she mentioned Maho in the first SG.
Zero is an incredibly shoehorned-in sequel that tells us that the original ending was wrong for no reason whatsoever except to add more to the story because it got popular. We tried to warn you for months, man.

I don't remember the VN very well, but it seems like the anime really downplayed Okabe's depression and also WW3 which Okabe sees when he goes to the worldline where the USSR still exists, and America/Japan is smuggling him out of the country.
It felt like all the stakes, which are more world-shaking than in S;G which is more about personal consequences were forgotten in the mists of nothing happening. To me the VN felt like a gradual prelude to a nuclear war where in the anime the middle nothing much happens other than the slice of life bits and then OH SHIT WE GOTTA END IT.
Very disappointing overall.

By keeping BetaOkabe as a character driven to near insanity by his choice, and driven by his desires to ensure that Steins;Gate is reached at all costs. Maybe keep it brief in a short scene where the Okabe from the doomed timeline chips in to push S;G1 Okabe to the right actions that will ensure he gets there. Maybe in a D-mail or something.

Just finished it and it was just as bad as I expected. No Soviet Union WW3 timeline, no Maho + Moeka operation to shutdown Amadeus, no Okarin torture session, etc. Not that any of that was top-tier stuff to begin with, but we needed something to make this show at least bearable to warrant its existence.

Scrap the whole thing and start from scratch. The VN had more going for it, but the story was FUBAR from the beginning. The anime fumbled around with the original story, managed to do a few things better such as scrap the whole "you've been trying to waifu a fake Yuki this whole time, Daru!", but it just gave up after the halfway point and did a straight adaptation of the VN's true ending without any of the necessary substance you'd get from playing through the other routes.
One quick idea to fix SG0 that I posted in an old thread: Say they kept Amadeus, Maho, and Kagari. They all share a common trait: they're stand-ins for Kurisu in some way or the other. Have them all be temptations for Okarin to never find a way to have his other worldline self reach Stein's Gate. He just settles for one of them and accepts WW3. The Okarin that rejects them all is the true route in the VN and the one we'd see in the anime. Would have given these characters a lot more weight to their introduction in the story, especially in the adaptation.

The story at its core is a clusterfuck. The anime just made it more pronounced since it magnified the VN's problems tenfold and didn't even bother combining the multiple routes of the VN like the original SG did with its adaptation.
