(S; G) Isn't it an animation that many people brag about but is actually mediocre?

But is the ordinary time-travel animation with some pretentious Settings, but also with a big world view to tell a small pattern of the story, very boring...

It seems that every masterpiece that is widely touted is almost always mediocre. Do the people who tout it really watch nothing but animation? Girls all over the world like Okabe? It's an otaku fantasy, slow pace, too much nonsense. Microwave back in time? Don't you think it's silly?

Naive and arrogant male protagonist, let a person can not bear to look at, Dressed in sci-fi fur, the result is a vulgar fake harem animation

It's hard to imagine this mediocre animation getting such a high rating from (MAL) (ANN)

I kinda get the frustration of it being overrated especially on this app but I still give it 9/10, it does suffer from quality in ally like realism, world building/setting, and pacing but still has very compelling and interesting concepts within it.

oooooooh look at you, your so different from everyone else because your shitting on a really well received anime. Idc if this is bait, just shush please :)
(and i’m confused at what you trying to say, for the time that animation is extremely good. So if you just don’t like the story or characters then say it, cuz no one can tell me that animation is bad for 2011)

First off, if you are a native speaker you are not able to clearly articulate your point. If you are not a native speaker, I really wish I understood what you feel is mediocre.

The anime had a plot which obviously went over your head. Kinda feel bad for you because it is an awesome story.

The thing about "ordinary time travel Anime" is this: Most of them suck. And there aren't even a lot.

Steins Gate really stands out.

This clearly sounds like a bait/prank.

The harem part is irrelevant. The story itself is convincing and logical. Its way better than any other time travel stories.

Well, if we are very specifically talking about animation then I don't really think S;G has some sort of masterpiece level of animation. For early 2010s KyoAni and Ufotable have brought some quality animations.

Nevertheless everything else about Steins;Gate is indeed good enough to be widely praised.

Okay so for starters assuming this isn’t clickbait (which considering you literally scored it a 10/10 is very likely) I’m not entirely sure who said it had like the greatest animation of all time, because that’s just not true! Most people who like steins;gate like it for the story; even with that said I really do think you’re underestimating how the framing of scenes and usage of color was used in Steins;gate with many unique perspectives which improved the experience of the anime. Perhaps you don’t like White Fox’s animation style, fair enough but like there was definitely a lot of narrative moments that make up for the “ordinary” animation.

You scored steins gate a ten and your lowest score for anything is 8. You’ve only got 20 entries. You don’t know good from shit and you don’t know your ass from a hole in the ground.

I was completely engrossed in it when I watched it, but the more I think about it, the more the "science" and characters (Okabe and Daru in particular) bother me. I still think it's an 8/10 though.

This topic reminded me I was going to finally go back and finish the VN, so thanks for that.

OP: calls S;G mediocre and nonsense
Also OP: has S;G in favorites and has it rated as a 10

This is like putting a cube into a circular hole.

Yeah, it trying to not be real doesn’t dissect it from lack of realism. Story doesn’t need to not try and do X in order to lack said X.

wait wait wait, first of all steins gate is not known for its animation but the story itself. As you see steins gate is a highly acclaimed masterpiece according to many people. Those things which may seem silly to you are a way the series tries to make itself more understandable for the watchers. like as we know under certain conditions plasma is generated in microwave, so who in the world knows what else can be microwave used for. you see most of the shows simply show us that the characters can travel through time, they don't explain how they just use that very concept of time travel. but steins gate is different, it tries to explain the time travel. one of a kind I would say. yeah the show is slow paced in the start but its understandable as the show was trying to establish its characters and plot and many people consider it boring. but I just loved it too. If you don't like steins gate that's your opinion bro, I just love it. and I respect your opinion.

You could just let people enjoy things and accept this series isn’t what you go for. It happens, not every series will resonate with you.

exactly. And animation is not even necessarily “bad” per say. Like bad animation imo is when the animation quality takes away from being able to enjoy or like the show more. I don’t think the animation compromises anything in any way.

@kizuyomi Watch Dark (German series) if you want something in which the time travel aspect is much more crazy
