For me, this anime was a chore to get through. The majority of the plot twists in the series I figured out ahead of time and the few I didn't weren't resounding.
The way Okabe goes in this giant round about way to solve his problems when a much simpler solution is staring him in the face since he has control over the machine freaking infuriated me. He has so many simpler solutions to nearly every issue he comes across but he was too stupid to see them and that completely destroyed all enjoyment for me.
I'd like to go into greater detail, but that would spoil the so called twists and ruin it for some so I won't.
Had I not watched this all in one sitting, I would have dropped it by the third episode because while I've watched dialogue heavy anime in the past and really enjoyed it, they had awesome soundtracks to back up boring dialogue which makes a world of difference to me.
