I know I redid the part about the opening at the end of the video almost word for word the same as the other video, but I'm going to do a very meta thing once they're both published on youtube that most people probably won't even notice. So you guys get to see the awkward time where that part is in both videos.

Steins Gate stayed weird and got even more confusing

Maybe not understanding all of it is the point Previous video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1UkQDft2g0Y NEW VIDEO ON PATREON: https://www.patreon.com/Overanalyzing Steins Gate also. #steins_gate #steinsgate0

I'm glad you overall came out of this show positive, you're for the most part pretty spot one with a lot of your thoughts (except for the god mayuri bit, but honestly compared to the truth its probably for the best) If you're ever curious for the truth, its "kinda" revealed in "Steins Gate 0", which is a "sequel" to this show that you could check out sometime in the future (You do have to check out a an episode called 23b before it though otherwise you'll be very confused). I'll refrain from typing out my opinions on that show (and oh boy do I have opinions), but yeah. On another note there's also an ova episode, which acts as an epilogue for this show, that you missed, might be worth checking out. I don't really have much more to add (I mean i do but don't worry about it), I love steins gate. Easily my favorite anime (and I'm just happy you came out of it with a generally positive view of it.)

If you really enjoy the stuff about having memories, conversations, and relationships with people that never experienced those things I recommend Re:Zero as it deals with that subject matter pretty heavily in a similar way that Steins;Gate does.

I don't know if here is the right place but based on what you said about this show i think you could like or at least have some cool thoughts about these shows. Heavenly Delusion: weird stuff Re:Zero: more fantasy like To Every You I've Loved Before / To Me, the One who loved you: Which are actually 2 movies that could be watched in either order.

I think I've commented this before, but I'll say it again since I see people recommending re: zero. I think you will HATE it. At least I hate it, and I think we have fairly similar tastes. That said I would love to see you review it. The show came out before anime had really become mainstream the way it is now and most anime fans were very anime brained, completely numb to weird tropey bullshit, and largely uncritical of bad writing. (just looked it up and it was 2016 which is around when mainstream anime adoption really started to take off I think, but the point still stands). So I've only ever seen glowing praise for the show. People call it the best isekai ever, and some rank it among the top anime of all time, but personally I couldn't stand it. From what I gather, the writing does some interesting things on the large scale; season or show length character/story arcs, but in the moment to moment dialogue and pacing the writing is PAINFUL. I really tried to get past it, but I couldn't make it more than a few episodes in. So it would be really fun for me personally to hear from someone who is not a terminal weeb, and appreciates good writing.

The entirety of season 2 happens between episode 23 and 24, it explains a lot and explore some interesting ideas. I’d love to watch you review it as well. I enjoyed this review a lot.

Nice video, as usual. I've seen a few people mentioning Re:Zero as another popular, time travel-ish show. I lost a lot of interest after the first series, but until that point I think it's a pretty good show that could be worth a video. Of course the main reason to watch it is that I want to see how much you'll hate the main character.

good vid, u should watch berserk 1997

i think re:zero does alot wrong that the avatar often complains about (for example alot of "character traits" are cute anime girl with no other substance) so i think he will hate it but im also a big re:zero hater myselfe so i might be biased

Ole

i did manage to drag myself through the first 2 seasons, and while the overarching plot is interesting-ish, what you criticize just never stops. Anytime anyone opens their mouth, only cringy anime stuff comes out of there.

if you wanna you can continue by watching Steins gate 0 its about a different timeline in the story. I think it would be interesting

Agreed that the best, most interesting thing about Steins;Gate is the nightmare of Okabe having to go back and undo all these positive changes to the timeline. I never actually watched it but I played the visual novel it's an adaptation of and really enjoyed it a lot. It's much much longer, so by the time that part of the story starts, you've spent a lot more time with these characters and living in the more positive version of their lives, so it's really devestating.
