depends who you ask. for me it, is the mystery was good, the emotional scenes were amazing, and the plot and action were nicely done.

Steins Gate is a great work,
the only problem is that dramatic/fight scenes are very bad.
because of that i feel it’s overrated, but i love it

Not for me, it was alright but in term of time travel theme I prefer much more series Dark, also comedy aspect was really cringe most of the time.

kind of top 10-15 for my taste,I love mystery/thriller but I am not big fan science fiction, I do like watching excellent character development or story and it do delivers on that
personally I prefer to watch animes like vinland saga or another over it

in term of time travel, I prefer dark or predestination more

Yes. it has everything a top 5 Anime would need:

-Fantastic MC, with character development
-Interesting concepts and execution
-Slow buildup followed by a climax that shakes the foundation for everything that came before it plot wise
-Good pacing
-Semi-Original concept
-Decent animation (Not 0)
-Incredible VAs in both Sub and Dub
-Good length
-Great adaptation (For a VN, this is one of, if not, the strongest adaptation to date with very few changes to the source material)
-Impact
-Re-watchability
-Aged well
-Great and memorable OST
-Depth

Every possible criticism I can think of that someone would have with the show, I can address

-Slow plot = SoL is integral in the first half, in order for the 2nd half to hit as hard. And I mean c'mon, I know plenty of people that actually enjoyed the first parts of Steins;Gate. Maybe SoL is just not for you.

-Okabe is a terrible MC =


-The side characters suck = This is an argument I can somewhat get behind, but I'll refute in a second. Steins;Gate is not about its side characters, it's about Okabe, since this is a time loop scenario he alone has memories of the other timelines. This basically means the other characters are incapable of change. Now let's talk about the other characters. Kurisu is generally well-liked, she's not a favorite of mine, but I get why she has a cult following. Mayuri could be seen as a plot device, sure, but she's not incredibly overbearing. Daru is a weeb and general creep, but he has his moments; Almost every SoL Anime has one of these archetypes and I've seen worse. Luka is a trap, enough said. Farris is humanized in the second half. Moeka is a blend of antisocial behavior, and you get that she is prone to manipulation. I fucking love Suzha, but she is a rather spoiler heavy character that you don't even get to know until the second half.

-Time travel concept is unoriginal = It takes root in several time travel theories and actual real events (John Titor conspiracy + Butterfly Theory). And sure, it's not the first time travel Anime or show, but the way it uses those concepts and its time travel is done in such a clever way that it is original. The only claim I've seen made is that it ripped off Higurashi, but while both series have a time loop, it still differentiates itself


On MAL though being in the top 5 doesn't really mean much, when you can have an airing show with so much hype that it gets to the #3 spot with only one episode, compared to a show that's 10 years old that still stands today.

It is not in my top 5 and never was. The highest is got was 6th and it has only dropped one place to 7th. But it is definitely top 5 material and if I didn’t watch fate beforehand it would of been in my top five, even if it was for a short while.

If you like shows with amazing characters developments, I suggest Houseki no Kuni, also known as Land of The Lustrous.
It's my favourite manga (it's in top 15 on MAL as well I think) and the anime (that covers up to chapter 30) has gorgeous 3D models, not the bad CGI like Berserk's. Nothing beats HNK's CGI, trust me.

I really agree with you, but since fight scenes are very, very bad, it already can’t be a 10/10
and most of dramatic scenes are silly.

Come on mate, that's nitpicking a bit too much now, Steins;Gate barely had fight scenes in it, that fight scene only lasted like 3 seconds or less and it wasn't even bad.

You know what's bad? the fight scenes in Steins;Gate 0, that one is utter garbage and a lot longer but not Steins;Gate man, come on now.

I know it's your opinion and all and I respect it but hearing someone say that the fight scenes in Steins;Gate is "very, very bad" is weird considering it's not bad and it only lasted 3 seconds or less at best.

The dramatic scenes in Steins;Gate is awesome IMHO but yeah, that's my opinion too, while I don't agree with your opinion I still respect it.
