Im just an usual guy who watches mostly high rated anime. So this is why you won't find a big list of anime i share.
I also workout, so yeah, i have a limited time watching anime.
"One word: Hype." While hype can often lead to heightened expectations, it's not inherently indicative of a show's quality. "Steins;Gate" has received critical acclaim and a dedicated fanbase due to its merits, not just hype.
"Before watching this show, I was amazed by its high scores, big fanbase, and critics putting it on a pedestal. I had high expectations and was going into it thinking it would be the second time Jesus would step on earth. But as always, there's nothing worse than diving into the hype." High expectations can lead to disappointment if they are unrealistic. However, this does not diminish the show's inherent qualities. Most viewers have found this show to meet or exceed their expectations. Your personal opinion isn't really a good argument..
"What else should I say? Steins;Gate has everything a mass consumer needs: a concept about time travel, sci-fi theme coupled with unique characters and....a poorly written story. How did something like this go wrong? I can't imagine, since the production values were high enough to hire a good writer. Not only does the first half of the show, specifically the first 12 episodes, do absolutely nothing, and I mean NOTHING. They are painfully boring, painfully slow, painfully killing every good aspect the show initially put into it. After that, it gets better, but I didn't have the desire to watch it because if half of the show is shitty, there's just no helping it. But I still forced myself through the agony. And.... it still didn't pay off in the end." The pacing of "Steins;Gate" is deliberate, designed to establish the characters and the intricacies of the plot. The slow buildup is crucial for the impactful twists and emotional depth in the latter half. Many fans appreciate this approach as it enhances the overall storytelling.
"Now about the characters, they all seem out of this world. I mean, an 18-year-old guy invents a time machine? Or an 18-year-old girl writes scientific articles, is a research member, and somehow she surpasses her own father? And a few other characters also seem unrealistic. The only real character is maybe the owner of the office where the cast was spending most of their time." "Steins;Gate" is a work of fiction, and some suspension of disbelief is necessary, especially in a sci-fi setting. The characters' brilliance and unique traits are part of the show's charm and appeal, contributing to the narrative's depth and intrigue.
"Only the art is good, but even then, the setting is very strange, the sun is somehow too yellowish, I don't know, some colors were too bright." Artistic choices, including color palettes, are subjective. The unique art style of "Steins;Gate" helps set the mood and atmosphere, complementing the narrative's tone. Many viewers find the art and setting distinctive and visually appealing.
