Are any of you anons planning to reread rewatch S;G for Kurisumas? It seems like as good an excuse as any to me, what with the Zero anime coming up.You will never spend Christmas with Kurisu.
>>135005071
Personally I'm staying away from S;G threads for the rest of my life to avoid spoilers, I don't know if you'll get many people here.
>>135005071
I'm going to rewatch it the week before the final episode of zero comes out then watch all of zero in one go.
I just finished Zero and I'm still fucking confused.
Why is Okabe shifting between timeline throughout the story?I know it is causes by Amadeus being handed into different groups, but wouldn't Okabe just "stay" in that time line?
Why didn't the 2025 Okabeshift to S;G timeline after he send the video in the ending?
Where areMayuri and Suzuha after they time traveled in the Mayuri ending?
Why didn'tthe time leaped AI Okabe just firm and send the video to the S;G Okabe instead of sending the D-Rine to 2025 Okake?
Why is Maho such a cute?
>>135006515
Punished Okabedies in 2025. The worldline doesn't change until Suzuha goes back in 2035. That is when the worldline shift would happen from his perspective, if he was alive to see it.
Why is Moeka such an awful person?
>>135005071
>You will never spend Christmas with Kurisu.
You can still spend it with Amadeus Kurisu.But not until you suddenly get shifted to a hellish worldline.
>>135006515
Coming from someone who hasn't played Zero, but has spent the last 10 days doing virtually nothing but listen to people talk about it:Amadeus being handed to a different group changes who gains time travel technology in the future. With that technology, that group will change the past, which shifts the worldline and thus alters the present. Because Okabe has his perfect Reading Steiner, to him it just looks like everything changed at once.That's the thing that's always bothered me the most, ever since the Epigraph trilogy came out. Normally in S;G, when the past is altered by something causing a knock-on effect, the worldline immediately changes. But just for this specific scenario, the writers decided to ignore that rule, and just said "Because the D-Rine doesn't directly alter the past, it only creates a knock-on effect which eventually leads to Okabe physically time traveling and changing the past, the current worldline can stay a while."They are lost in space-time after their time machine malfunctioned (ran out of fuel or something?) while they were time traveling.I don't know why he didn't just send the D-mail video himself.
Maho is best bro, best imouto and best wife in one. Truly best girl.
>consensus is that Maho is the best
all I need to know, getting the fuck out of here now
>>135006515
>>135011767After Okabe discovered that you could deceive the world, he sent a d-RINE to his past self "the world can be deceived", that was the Amadeus route. In the True end, Okabe makes up the Operation Skuld and the video before leaving with the time machine. The video is sent by the labmems after his death so Reading Spaghetti wouldn't activate I think, and I think that's the Suzuha who knew about the video was still a kid when Okabe left with the time machine.
I was a bit disappointed by the True End because it lacked a proper conclusion.
And I didn't got the theory about all the routebeing canon and actually all of them happened before the True one
>>135012965
But I just saw the stream and can't under Japanese so I may be wrong
You forgot the best one anon
What subs are the best?
>>135015361
utw you fucking uneducated plebian
read the fucking vn if youn haven't
>>135015361
Ignore >>135015545, I didn't even know UTW subbed the whole series.
Either way, WhyNot had Steiner and Quattro on it. They're the best subs.
>>135015670
>I didn't even know UTW subbed the whole series.
They didn't.
>>135015705
Well, there we go then.
>>135015670
fucks sake, yeah ignore me. I meant whynot, utw seemed to be inn my mind for whatever reason.
Should still read the VN though
I don't know why this thread has such a quantity of Moeka but I approve
>>135005071
Daily reminder kurisu a shit.
Best new girl won the Okabebowl.
I'M GONNA MARRY KURISU!
What are the list of endings in S;G0?
tuturu~
>>135017771
Get outta here, kurisu is fucking golden
>>135005071
I don't think I'll reread the VN but a watch of the show and movie is a pretty good idea.
What's the best play order for Zero?
>tfw S;G worldline Okarin will never get to know the true best girl Maho
>tfw the superior beta worldline Suzuha doesn't exist in the S;G worldline
>tfw there will never be a Zero Darin
>>135023126
>womanlets
>>135023196
Every S;G girl is tiny except Moeka and even Moeka's only of an average height.
>>135023310
Maho is especially tiny.
>>135023126
>tfw there will never be a Zero Darin
Kaede a cute CUTE
I want to heal punished Suzuha
>>135023681
I want to punish any Luka.
>>135024719
>you will never fuck Luka's ass with a cucumber so hard he can't even walk for the next couple days
>>135015361
Why;Not had Steiner's help and are often cited as reliable subs for S;G.
>>135017771
This is objectively false.
Does anyone know where you can downloasd the CG sets for any of the VNs except Zero? (already have that one)
>>135027378
Here's a couple. Only ones I've seen, but I can't say I've searched very hard.
http://g.e-hentai.org/g/291898/d16f0addd3/
http://g.e-hentai.org/g/379206/eedf586f7d/
I want toholdKurisu andtellhereverything will be okay
I need more interaction between Maho and Hououin Kyouma.
Maho's reaction was hilarious.
>>135028284
I don't think Kurisu would be into that.
>>135029391
It's a bit heavy, I know, but I think I could ease her into it
Which version of the VN should I get?
>>135029450
Well, it depends. Are you Okabe?
>>135029564
The Vita version is comfy as fuck since you can play it anywhere and you're likely to want to with a VN. The PS3 release does have slightly higher quality assets though. The PC version is acceptable but hardly ideal.
>>135029564
>that filename
kek
also, go with the Vita to support the weeb machine
>>135011767
>They are lost in space-time after their time machine malfunctioned (ran out of fuel or something?) while they were time traveling
So theylose in space time without able to reach Okabe? Is this from some tie-in novel or something? I feel like I'm missing something.
>>135012965
>The video is sent by the labmems after his death so Reading Spaghetti wouldn't activate I think
I'm still confused but I guess it makes more sense now.
>And I didn't got the theory about all the route being canon and actually all of them happened before the True one
WaitI thought the other route wasn't canon? Because in one route Kagari time traveled instead of Mayuri
>>135029850
I didn't think so. He might be able to just get her over the line depending on the situation. You? Not so much.
>>135029919
God damn it, son, let a nigga believe in something
>>135030042
I'm sorry man but even her husbando would struggle to get that done.
>>135030735
I bet Mayuri could do it easily.
>>135020865
Don't remind me of that.
I want to Kurisu's spoon
I want to Mayuri's tutturu
I want to Faris' nyan nyan
I want to Suzuha's bicycle
I want to Moeka's M4
But I don't want anything to do with Luka.
>>135030822
Possibly, but Mayuri does have the advantage of the fact that Kurisu doesn't want to fuck her. I'm also pretty sure that Mayuri could do that to anybody.
Post Maho's butt
>>135031647
He didn't ask to see Kurisu's curves, anon.
>>135031126
>But I don't want anything to do with Luka.
look at this motherfucker pleb and laught
>>135033175
>Laugh at right opinions
I fell so empty after completed Zero.
Should I go and play Phenogram of Milking? Any other good adv game recently?Not a big fan of C;C because of it's plot twist
>>135034578
>Should I go and play Phenogram of Milking?
Well, do you like fun?
>>135034690
Well yeah but I don't want to reread the exact same story that only told from a different perspective.Also the lack of Maho pains me
>>135034968
>Well yeah but I don't want to reread the exact same story that only told from a different perspective.
That's not what Phenogram is.
It's a bunch of short stories told from different perspectives that ultimately tell different things. Do some research before making assumptions.
>>135035059
Not him but at the end of the day it's still a series of inconsequential milking stories. The Luka route is especially contrived and ridiculous.And yet I still bought it.Twice.
>>135035130
I mean, zero is essentially inconsequential milking too, but it's still interesting and unique.
And it's better than Darling.Plus, I got teary during the Alpacaman and Kurisu parts.
>>135035183
Zero ties into the main story, as well as several of the broader SciADV stories. It's a unique take on what was a glossed-over detail in the original tale, and fills itself in as a real chapter in the overarching story. It may be classified as milking, but at least it was done right.The Alpacaman story had a great twist, I'll give it that.
>>135035183
Darling doesn't try to pretend it's anything but a generous helping of fanservice, it's great
>>135035232
You don't have to convince me of its value, I think the spinoffs are all awesome, milking or not.
>>135035370
While I'm not exactly a fan of quirky rom-com stuff, I thought it was pretty good.
>>135035232
>all sequels are milking
This meme needs to die.
>>135035370
Is that the one that had the bit with Okabe and Kurisu connected with bracelets that would shock them if they argued or tried to take them off? 'Cause I actually kind of enjoyed that story
>>135035130
At least it's better than Moeka's route.
Shit was fucking boring.
>>135035844
It was a derivative of a derivative that already had a manga adaptation to boot.
Was it better than the novels? Yes.
Was it better than the original? That can be argued.
Even so, it can be classed as milking.
>>135035851
>Okabe and Kurisu connected with bracelets
Yes.I want to hold her hands.
>>135035851
>>135036059
This shit sounds adorable.
>>135036131
It is, the end of that route is pretty funny too.
>>135036180
Go on
>>135036131
Every Darling route was adorable.Except Lukako.
>>135036237
The whole point of that arc is that Okabe accidentally uses one of Kurisu's gadgets on her while she's sleeping.It reads thoughts and puts them into video, and when it gets sold to some guy and then the video is going to show up on every analog TV in Akihabara because shenanigans. It ends up she was dreaming about Okabe.
It was pretty sweet, though I think they were slightly out of character.
>>135012660
Well

>>135037123
And a manga and an anime yes

Both of which are adaptions.

Question about ZeroSo if the woman with the helmet was Yuki was Kagari, then who was the helmet woman in the Kagari routes?
>>135029564
There's very little difference between the official PC release and PS3/Vita release, but buying the PS3/Vita release new increases the chances of more S;G-related VNs being brought over.
>>135043536
ha ha, very funny
>>135043452
People reply more often this way, plus if we just talk about VN related stuff the mods don't care since they think it's a waifu thread.

I have no idea how any of this shit works, where are you fucking getting Zero's story, i dont even have a ps4 and theres nothing on youtube so how do i read this shit

>>135056315
dont start this shit mate, i wanna know
>>135055947
>where are you fucking getting Zero's story
it was streamed by someone when it came out and there were plenty of threads about it
It's also on PSV and I'm waiting for my copy to come
Also someone linked a private(?) playlist somewhere sometime and I can't seem to find it anymore but it had a playthrough of 0
>>135056346
You'll know in 5+ years.
>>135056370
I dont speak chink so if that stream you mentioned had subtitles or something, depending on what streaming site it was could someone link me. Or maybe that Private playlist, because i dont have ps4 or 3 or vita
>>135056719
Nope everything I mentioned is in moon
anyways the streamer only live-streamed it but didnt archive it except the true end.
but
I just checked youtube and someone is uploading a subtitled playthrough but I don't know how far he is or he's going to go
>>135056925
yeah i see the subbed too, but am i seriously gonna have to learn chink for anime shit. Thanks anyway
>>135005071
I'm more interested in knowing whether we are having more episodes concerning the beta timeline or not.
>>135057226
Where have you been? Zero is getting a full anime adaptation.
Is there any playthrough videos of S;G 0? In English, ofc
Sup
>>135057348
There are currently two really shittily translated videos that barely cover the prologue and part of chapter 1. It would be better to wait for the anime, in all honesty.

So I guess most people here can read have already read Zero.
>>135061716
I would say that a few people here have read Zero, like myself, but a lot of people have just watched the streams or read spoilers without knowing much or any Japanese.
>>135047877
There is a prostitute involved
>>135062164

>>135063997
No, Trump doesn't get elected. He fails to get the Republican nomination and runs as a third party candidate, splitting the conservative vote. Trump and the Republican candidate get the majority of the vote, but neither gets enough to win the presidency.

Why does Reading Spaghetti works/what caused it?It's explained in S;G 0.
>>135065160
It was explained in Steins;Gate.
Everyone has Reading Steiner. It's just normally an inaccurate sense of deja vu and dreamlike "false" memories. Okabe's is preternaturally accurate as a result of a mysterious fever he barely survived in his childhood.
>>135065423
It wasn't explained in Steins;Gate. Only that everyone has it. The cause, the why of it, all of that was NOT explained in the original Steins;Gate.
It is explained in Zero.
>>135065471
The fever was definitely mentioned. It was one of his scenes about why he liked Mayuri so much.
>>135065471
Please spoiler us.
>>135065544The fever was mentioned, but nothing was elaborated on in the original text, it was only fully confirmed in Zero itself.
>>135065552
Two words.New Encephalitis.
>>135065625
It was clearly implied in S;G and most readers picked up on it considering it's been covered in these threads before Zero was ever announced.
>>135065660
I've been here since 2011, I haven't seen a single thread in whichanyone made a direct link to Reading Steiner and Encephalitis. Everyone knows it was initially brought on by the fever, but nobody made the correlation of brain swelling.
>>135065742
Oh geez, meant to say I've been in all the SciADV threads since 2011
Might get some backlash for that.
>>135065742
The fever being the referenced subject to begin with.. the other circumstances about it weren't clear, but that's not what was said earlier.
>>135065625
>not nanomachines
what a twist
>>135065831
When I said
>The cause, the why of it, all of that was NOT explained in the original Steins;Gate.
I was more referring to an actual explanation. The fever was given as a blanket reason, but it was never explained proper. In retrospect I probably could've worded that better.

WWI was started by bosnian nationalists what the fuck
>>135069798
I'm pretty sure you mean Serbian terrorists. Either way, it started bewtween Serbia and Austro-Hungary, with Germany reluctantly being dragged into it later by political ties and threats. Germany harboring resentment over their country being rekt in a war they never even wanted to join is one of the things that drove them to start WWII.

Kurisu is undeniably qt.

Moekafags might disagree but that's their problem.

I guess that's fair enough. As for Moeka, I find it incredibly difficult to overlook her place in the story. Even if I didn't hate her for what she is I'd hate her for how willingly she lets people use and abuse her.

I can't wait for the anime. It's going to be a wild ride. Spoilered for the secondaries.Rintaro Okabe falls in love with a Kurisu Makise.
Unable to confess, he is gifted by a deus ex machina with the girl's phone number. Never minding the strange area code, the mad scientist immediately calls her, and is overjoyed to find out that she has a crush on him as well.
But, the next day, when he recounts the previous day's confessions to the hentai tensai shojo, she only looks at him with a perplexed expression. After some investigation, he finds out that the girl he called is not the same girl he fell in love with. In fact, Kuristina doesn't exist in this universe at all. She is the girl's counterpart from another world line, who has fallen in love with Rintaro's own AU self, who too is blissfully unaware of her crush.
Hijinks ensue as the two strike up a deal to give each other their darkest, most private secrets in order to equip the other with the weapons they need to conquer the heart of their other selves. While the two chase their respective loved ones, DRAMA ensues as they begin to fall in love with each other instead and question the NATURE of SONUVABITCH.
>>135082529
This the only reasonable position.

>As for Moeka, I find it incredibly difficult to overlook her place in the story. Even if I didn't hate her for what she is I'd hate her for how willingly she lets people use and abuse her.
I have sympathy for the meek and manipulated, so my vitriol is mainly filtered towards for gasmask-kun. The hands that hold the leash always take the most responsibility in my eyes. (The Committee of 300 are too vague and nebulous to personally direct anger towards.)
I also sympathize with how utterly desperate a person in complete emotional isolation can become.
>>135083280
You can still read Epigraph manga, which only spoils around 1/8 of Zero. She's pretty based in it.

After some investigation, he finds out that the squirrel he called is not the same girl he fell in love with. In fact, she doesn't exist in this universe at all. She is the squirrel's alternate universe counterpart, who has fallen in love with the MC's own AU self, who too is blissfully unaware of her crush.

>>135095836Shouldn't she ended up with SERN after the lab raid in Alpha?
>>135095999
>>135095903According to Kurisu in the alpha worldline Mayuri was killed instead an okabe was all deppressed a ptsd about not being able to save her. Okabe tells her that it's no different in the beta worldline. That either way he's regrets not being able to save both of them. But Kurisu points out that at least in the beta worldline Mayuri is living happily and that that's what both she and Okabe wanted. That's why she tells him it's best to forget about her and that meeting like that was just a dream because she doesn't want him to suffer anymore.
>>135095999the raid only happens in the worldline where he doesn´t let suzuha go
>>135096167
Wow, I didn't spellcheck that at all. My bad.
>>135093458
It was pretty interesting. Don't know if "cool" is the best way to put that. But the wild ride of consequences that can spiral throughout years following a single misstep when time travel is on the table was certainly crazy.
Also the implications that FB wanted to protect her raised some questions about the motives and desires of other rounders. Which the anime just tossed to the garbage. Humanizing the enemy makes them interesting, you know?
>>135065916
I never bought the whole real booting thing via Dirac Sea, to me it always seemed like bullshit Aoi just said because she had no other explanation for her abilities.
This leads me to believe Gigalomania actually relies on the theory of worldlines to function and is similar in nature to Reading Steiner and the power to retain memories from other realities (which every person possesses in one form or another, this might also explains why Gigalomaniacs have to "share" illusions with other people to make them real). Materializing their illusions is just an application of subtly making minor changes to a worldline.
It makes the pseudo science of the Sci;ADV franchise much more concise and satisfies my major autism.
>>135099074
Norose himself believed the Dirac Sea theory, they are not called Dirac Swords for nothing.
You are simply mistaking in your believe.
The Di-Swords are a pipe connecting this mind to the Dirac Sea, deal with it.
Take the lyrics of "fake me".
>I know what lies at the end of the universe
>There lies a glassen dead end
>And the vista behind the glass
>Is the same vista as when I'd close my eyes
The "glassen end" is the Di-Sword
The vista is the delusion, an envisioned something that can be made real by what is behind that glass.

Yes, SciADV is beloved on the whole (a relatively big success in japan) and Steins;Gate in particular is adored by the west.
>>135109495
Maybe one day... but I don't much like VNs so chances are slim!
>>135109508
Well it is good to know that there is a market for it. I'm happy to here there is Steins;Gate.Zero incoming, too.
I'd probably enjoy watching other animes in the same vein as this one, any suggestions?While I'm here I have to say that Mayuri is way more enduring than Kurisu in the anime

>>135110079
Steins;Gate is the only VN in the series that has a good adaptation. Also, the Funimation dubs and subs for every entry in the series are absolute trash, but given that you're from /co/, I doubt you care about the specifics.
>>135110123
Why not?
>>135110127
What is wrong with Funimation? I'm willing to subject myself to the oddities of anime, but not the language or experience of reading subs for everything.

More than I like Nip speak and subs... yes. I mean, I am not defending them, they might ruin everything, but as I have no reference for the original dialog and have thus far tolerated Funimation dubs (Ouran, Aldnoah, S;G) I guess I they could conceivably be worse.
>>135110674
On further inspection Aldnoah wasn't a Funimation thing.
Stiiiill
S;G was fun, and thanks for all the help and the infographic guys.
>>135110406
I'm still not exactly sure what you mean by 5 Day, but no, Zero is actually longer than the original, especially given that you could skip all the alternate ends in that, whereas Zero requires you to get them all tpo unlock the True End.

I know it probably isn't canon, but like the second anon says, there's a good chance he still has it (to a much lesser extent than Zeroin, of course).

>>135111197
What was so bad about F.D.D., majorly mad music man?
That rating was based purely on the songs themselves btw, not the accompanying animations. Otherwise, it'd be Chaos Logic >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> erryting else.
>>135111150
At least i think the only reason Maho is there is because she wanted to see her dead friend.
>>135111288
Because fake me and Fetishism Ark had better lyrics.
>>135111142
Man, I loved the designs in Epigraph -- especially the first artist's
>>135111320
I don't speak moon, and it's been a long time since I read an English lyric sheet for any of them. I do remember really liking the ones Fake Me, though. Anyway, given that I don't know the lyrics to half of those, the rating was purely based off personal taste in the ways the songs sounded, and and how impressed I was by their constructed complexity.
>>135111459
Yeah, I do like this art quite a bit.
>>135111476
>If everything my eyes take in can't be believed

Steiner should hurry up translating them.
>>135111298
And we know the same following event won't happen in SG worldline because of him.
Although it's equally bad.
>>135110978
Zero is being marketed as the "true" sequel,
they just blatantly ignored the Movie.
>>135111525
It's kinda sad that Steins;Gate Zero did the R;N plot better than R;N itself.
I mean the whole Amadeus thing.
>>135110975
But on the other hand it's way easier to dismiss any of it as his regular chuuni nonsense in that worldline. At least in the Zero ones they had legit time travel happen right in front of them. As it is, Kurisu is probably the most likely to believe him.
My point is that they'd be less helpful in managing the psychological trauma he'd undoubtedly be suffering from after bearing the burdens he has. He's watched Mayuri die painfully hundreds of times, taken back wishes from friends that had spent decades living with the outcomes, effectively erased his own happiness too and in a cruel twist of fate found himself plunging a knife into the woman he loves more than anything during an attempt to save her, leaving her to die in his arms.
That doesn't just go away. He feels guilty for sacrifices effectively never made by people who don't remember them, and neither of those he gave so much for has any idea of the lengths he went to for them. What's he supposed to do, go tell a psychologist about the hundreds of times he kept through time to stop a research organisation's evil henchmen from killing Mayuri in his 'lab' and to prevent them from taking a 70's PC? Or maybe the time he built a machine that sends memories back in time with a brilliant young neuroscientist that he fell in love with? How about the time he sent a pager message to the past to turn a friend into a girl, that he then had to date?
>>135111150
What do you think S;G 2 is going to be about then?
>>135113216
PreventingNae-samafrom ruling the world.
>>135113351
>Not a Gamma spinoff about stopping Okabe from taking over the world
>>135113769
Only if Kurisu is the protagonist
>>135113216
There should not be a S;G 2. The fight against the Committee will continue in other iterations of SciADV.
Steins;Gate is about time travel, but time travel is a solved problem by the end of Steins;Gate. The saga of Okabe and Reading Steiner should be put down.
The only way a Steins;Gate 2 could happen would be an utter rehash and despoiling of S;G's resolution. Like the Steins;Gate worldline turns out to be another dead end that needs to be escaped from, resulting in the recreation of the time leap machine.
>>135111077
>>135111077
>Wasn't written by Naotaka Hayashi, who writes or supervises all canon content.
Considering you said he writes or SUPERVISES all canon content, it sounds to me like this should make the movie canon, considering that although he hasn't written it, he is indeed credited with having supervised the movie.
I'm sure there's other content out there he hasn't written but only supervised the exact same way which you consider canon, hence why you made that observation.
>>135113769
Nah, I'd rather have Omega.
There's a lot more mystery in Omega waiting to be explored.

>>135114302
>Implying Okabe ruling over Japan is a convergent event
>>135111077
>>135114146
Naotaka's supervision doesn't actually make things canon, only things he wrote.
The movie is completely incompatible with the metaphysics as they lay anyway.
>>135114373
1. it probably is, considering it dictates the future of humanity and is therefore "a very big deal" that can't be budged
2. Changing who's the ruler wouldn't solve any issues to begin with because all the consequences of their rule would be converged
Yeah, the Okarin story should be put to rest after S;G0, the final instalment. I don't want them to go out on a shitpile like the movie again.
>>135114373
It is in the Gamma world line.
He is going to become one of the 300, ruler of Japan, the insane Hououin Kyouma.
Why is there so much hate for the movie? It wasn't the best thing ever but is hardly the irredeemable pile of ass some treat it as.
>>135114762
It ignores the time travel rules.
There exists no time travel in the Steins Gate, that is the point of the Novel.

Those are fair points, but the main draw of the VN was always the character drama and it delivers on that quite well. I'm not arguing it's great, just that it isn't the Hitler incarnate that people treat it as.

Moefags leave this place.
Fanservice is all well and good but we already have Darling for that.

Pack it up boys, Chaos;Child isn't canon.

See, as much as I loved the characterization in the VN, I thought the VN had far more going for it than just that. It wasn't just a superbly well-written character drama. It makes the most of its sci-fi backdrop, arguably to the point where it can be called hard rather than soft science fiction. Furthermore, rather than using time merely as a gimmick to facilitate its story, Steins;Gate makes the most of its premise thematically since time, memory, and loss are, I would argue, the three core themes of the experience.
The themes and the characters end up elevating one another. The characters are set against a rich thematic backdrop, and the themes become substantially more poignant when explored through the characters. And given how elegantly constructed the plot and the premise is, everything feels completely cohesive.
While I enjoyed the movie's characterization, it just wasn't the complete package that the VN was.

I'll probably time it so that I can finish it the day prior to the next one's release.

The fuck is wrong with this retard? I just got past that jelly mail and he is going about his business and playing along like a merry faggot.
I do not understand.

Are you watching the anime or reading the VN?
>>135117046
The VN.

Unless you're skipping over dialogue like a madman it should be pretty clear why he's acting like he is.
>>135116981
He's the insane Mad-o Scientist-o Hououin Kyouma who will deceive the world and bring about the Steins;Gate, what do you think?
>>135116981
Okabe is intelligent, but Okabe has little in the way of wisdom or experience. He does not realize the reality of the threats around him.
>>135117195
He also denies the reality of it, It's all so ridiculous and conspiracy-like that he basically just builds it into his chuuni bullshit for quite a while.
