I seriously hope you don't do this.
>>
>>154561559
It's great fun. I find it a bit overrated considering its hype level, but it's a great series overall that certainly isn't bad. It's just a small slice of the VN it came from though so a lot of discussion on /a/ will be beyond the anime and into the side material and expanded world.
>>
Just watch it. It's probably the easiest to spoil anime ever.

You need a couple of lengthy sentences to fully spoil steins gate.
Sure you can spoil who or so dies or he or she is actually this but they are pretty insignificant compared to the big picture

Not only are you a secondary, but you're a fucking peasant as well with shit tier taste. You should always read the source material before watching the adaptations of media. In the vast majority of cases the original work is miles better than then the new one.

Good, you'd be better off watching the anime and then playing the VN. Play the VN first and you might be disappointed with what was left out of the anime. Watch the anime first then the VN is more enjoyable with all the new info and more detailed explanations of what you already know.

>>154564320
There are still chances that they connect SciADV and SVN more, and we already wouldn't be able to have a game of a decent amount of main characters from each game because of how much getting all the seiyuus would cost. Even then, we might still get something nice, I have some ideas of what they could do, but with Chiyo nobody knows, so we can only wait and see.
>>
>>154570555
What? That's not what breaks the canon, it's the whole "'R' world line" thing that makes no sense because world lines should not have any ability to shift on and then off again without a triggering cause. There's only one world to be on a line.

Welp you've already been spoiled on the twist in your image.
The first half is cozy SoL with light sci-fi elements and the second half is a save the world and/or my waifu drama with some convoluted time travel twists. It's pretty good.

How would you go about making a SciAdv fighting game plot?
>After R;N
>Random people have been connected against their will to a Noah bootleg project where a delusional/matrix world is made from their minds and memories
>One of these people happens to be Okabe, whose reeding steiner overloads the system and causes other people gaining memories and attributes from different world lines + balancing ages (Since Suzuha is child during R;N she ages up and gains alpha & beta worldline memories etc.)

There would propably be 4 types of fighters:
1.Gigalomaniacs
>Takumi etc.
2.Those who can fight irl
>Nae, Suzuha, Braun, Moeka
3.those who have jacked and modified those rucksacks people carried in C;H to give them an edge
>Kurisu, Kaito, Frau
4. And those who by sheer willpower can alter the matrix/delusion they are connected to despite note being gigalomaniacs
>Okabe, Akiho

Kaito would play like Carl C. From Blazblue, commanding a mech/robot,
Okabe would just Chuuni everyone in the face and Takumi would just summon Seiras and weapons and traps around.

Abo loves composing for SciAdv.

>>154576438
I feel like this scene is much better in the anime than in the VN. Here it is implied that Okabe has to cry alone and nobody can truly understand his pain.
In the VN the line is "You can cry if you want to, okay?" and Mayuri even goes on about how he can open himself up to her, which doesn't have the same impact.
>>
>>154574566
Not really explained too well.
Faris somehow being able to have the memories from two timelines simultaneously is kind of glossed over. Even Okabe with a fully active Reading Steiner can't do that.
>>
>>154580939
Bullshit, the anime doesn't even show him break down after she says it.

This doesn't make any sense, just watch the first episode you fucking idiot.
>>
>>154581471
That's kind of what I like about it. Mayuri's line implies that this the inevitable breakdowns are something he will have to deal with on his own.

I agree that the big breakdown when he fails to save Kurisu the first time is much better and more raw in the VN though.
>>
>>154581920
That's not the point of the scene though. The point was that Okabe is (and always was) pretending to be Kyouma to look strong for Mayuri's sake, but she sees through the act and tells him he doesn't need to do it anymore, and that he should worry about himself now. It's supposed to emphasize how well Mayuri can perceive other people's emotions as well as how caring she is. Mayuri is the last person I could think of that would tell Okabe to deal with his problems on his own, and the fact that you derived that interpretation from the scene in the anime shows that it failed to get the message across.
>>
>>154561559
Well you just spoiled yourself the one part that is actually interesting, and that's halfway through the fucking show. The rest is just resolution with only a bit of interesting things thrown in.
>>
Anyone know where one would go about reporting typos in the 0 translation patch?
>>
>>154582677
Yeah, I'm aware of what the scene is supposed to convey in the VN. I'm just saying that I like the way the anime did it better. Okabe truly being the lonely observer and Mayuri seeing his pain, but knowing that she can't understand what he has been through made it feel more depressing as well as making Mayuri seem a little bit deeper.
>>
>>154582837
If you haven't played SG0, play it. That's basically the whole theme; Okabe is the lone sky clad observer who has lost his bright Orihime
>>
>>154582837

Mayuri will seem a whole lot deeper as you get through 0.

Which translation patch? Committee of Zero's?

>>154583363

Depending on where you are shot and how the bullet travels into the brain, that's highly possible.
>>
>>154583402

It's a continuation of C;H's true end and C;H LCC's true end. Who told you it was from bad end? That's not possible as entries like R;N which take place long after C;H still show Takumi is alive.

Yes. It's only minor typos in the tips so far but if there's a chance of fixing it I might as well report it.
