Are we just gonna ignore the 10/10 art on the chalkboard This was made with a piece of chalk? Truly I tell you, this was the work of Steins Gate. |

That's a very good theory buddy. A very good theory👍🏻
| @ShokatAli THX! i will take the next logical step and try to answer hard questions about the nature of the quantum information paradox. |

At this point, there's no difference between Stein's Gate and Rick and Morty fans

peak headcanon brother.
“Stein” as a beer mug and “Reading” as academic progression is exactly the kind of layered wordplay Okabe would accidentally stumble upon, then fully embrace as if he planned it all along. Imagine: postdoc Okabe, mentally fried after juggling research and impossible timelines, grabs a beer to “reset” his cognitive state. It works, and so he dubs the phenomenon “Reading Steiner.”
It also ties in beautifully to the academic system where “reading” is literally part of climbing the ladder—like earning titles by “reading” more. So Okabe, whether intentionally or not, merges chill-out beer moments with intellectual breakthroughs, something every academic (or student) could relate to.
Whether canon or headcanon, it’s exactly the kind of absurd-yet-genius connection that fits Steins;Gate and Okabe’s personality perfectly.
