2024-08-12 17:26:08 +0000 UTCI watched this back when it first aired. I came out of the first episode not knowing what was happening, but wanting to know more. It went on to become my favourite anime of all time, it's hell of a ride. Not a fan of the OVA though, it's the epilogue the show didn't need. A bit like Code Geass, this is also a show that's defined in many ways for me by the voices. I'm glad you're on sub, though I do hear the dub isn't bad, but I think Mayuri suffers from the standard dub problem of a squeaky voice sounding much weirder in a language you speak because you know it sounds wrong. I think the trap a lot of reactors fall into with this show is overthinking it and confusing themselves, rather than accepting that they're along for the ride with Okabe.

2023-11-14 13:31:57 +0000 UTCOnly people who'd ever vote for dub here are people too lazy to read subtitles. I mean Okabe and Mayushii's voice actors are fucking legendary, how anyone could want to not hear that is blasphemy
Jacob Svensson
2023-10-16 19:33:38 +0000 UTChopefully they didnt listen people who want them to watch this dubbed.... HOPEFULLY they didnt listen to you watch dubbed and miss a top 3 japanese voice actor performance should been criminal

2023-06-06 18:41:55 +0000 UTCRewatching this masterpiece after a decade. So hyped!
Kaito
2023-06-01 01:10:45 +0000 UTCI've seen this show 5 times all in dub so I'm excited to go through it in sub like this. This is one of those shows I still think about all the time and try to get a deeper understanding for. It is only second to AOT for me these two shows are the GOATs in my opinion.

2023-05-11 23:18:11 +0000 UTCI was looking forward to steins gate, a shame you chose the sub over the fantastic dub

2023-04-29 15:14:28 +0000 UTCAnyone who says subs are always superior are just elitist snobs. For this one, dub is more than fine.
Zyrus
2023-03-29 09:53:02 +0000 UTCI am going to cheat then by watching the episodes in dub and then their full reactions in sub. Best of both worlds. (Think I broke the Ein-steins's gate, if this is what this show is about).
Amrith
2023-03-17 04:32:04 +0000 UTCFirst time watching. In with you blind btw, brilliant setup and execution. For a second there I thought Carlie's knee was a Xenomorph, talk about an unexpected jump scare. Btw there is a major difference between a capsule landing (which the protagonist sees) and a satellite crashing onto the roof which I realized while watching your reaction.
Amrith
2023-03-16 22:13:11 +0000 UTCAgreed, I believe in sub supremacy just as much as the next guy but this show is simply superior in dub as a western viewer. The jokes hit harder, the characters are much easier to attach yourself too, and the show is much, MUCH, more digestable story wise, there is a lot of greatness to Okabe's sub VA, but I don't think a non-japanese speaker can really appreciate that as much...

2023-03-09 07:49:26 +0000 UTCAh, thanks for the correction. I've only seen up to the movie and haven't seen the new season yet, so I just answered based on the synopsis I read👍
MADHOUSE
2023-03-08 22:48:33 +0000 UTCThere are two seasons. There is Steins' Gate 0. Which by the end of the show, you'll probably want to see it.
K_How
2023-03-08 17:42:12 +0000 UTCDidn't get to finish the show the first time. Maybe I can make it this time along with you.

2023-03-08 16:29:16 +0000 UTCAll good! I complete understand where you are coming from. Most of the time I agree right with you :) I just watched this first in dub so I think that plays a part. I’m normally a sub person too. I’m just happy we get following along with their journey! Hope you have a great day!
rogueknight
2023-03-08 16:20:15 +0000 UTCI was very confused when I started watching this, but it really does get better the father you watch
Martina
2023-03-08 15:24:40 +0000 UTCYes! Just one thing: The 2nd season (0) is not based on the spin-off but on the second visual novel which the show is based on. :)
Meg B
2023-03-08 13:30:03 +0000 UTCYou know, I'm billigual with English not being my first language so when something is specifically from a certain culture I aim to retain as much from that culture as possible. Instead of defaulting to what I know and are familiar with. Steins;Gate is set in Japan with Japanese characters unlike some other anime so it only makes sense to me that that's the truer experience of the story. The dub is good, just not better. That's my opinion but I 100% respect yours. You're free to disagree :)
Meg B
2023-03-08 13:24:00 +0000 UTCHence why the dub helps when you don’t understand the references
rogueknight
2023-03-08 13:14:02 +0000 UTCI enthusiastically vote sub. Lots gets lost in translation with the dub (it heavily relies on Japanese culture, mostly pop culture). Also, Mamoru Miyano is one of my favorite voice actors ever. (in terms of dub, FMAB is the one to go with the dub IMO.) But, I'll respect whichever decision you come to of course. :D
Meg B
2023-03-08 12:38:25 +0000 UTCThat sucks for you man lol if you really can't continue because it's dubbed, it's your loss.
Zana
2023-03-08 12:04:53 +0000 UTCI am voting for dub on this one
Steven
2023-03-08 11:08:27 +0000 UTCAgree with everyone's sentiment. This is up there with FMAB as one of the greatest dubs out there. Regardless of your choice, the anime remains top tier so you can't go wrong with either one. If you notice too many people asking for a change it'll be because good dubs (let alone great ones) are so few and far between.

2023-03-08 08:17:11 +0000 UTCI see fans enjoy subs more than dub and rightfully so. However, Carlie and Ange are fairly new to anime so I took that into consideration and thought that dub is superior for the average western audience. Long time anime watchers have already absorbed a lot of Japanese culture and thus they can pick up the nuances in the anime they watch. Both of them are very accommodating people and I doubt that they would voice their opinion most of the time. I think the community here should have let them adjust first. We want them to enjoy and understand the things they watch not just enjoy watching them react to anime. I mean look at them watch Kaguya-sama and I felt bad for them having to catch up to the fast pace of that anime. Steins gate would be very similar and a lot of the jokes and nuance would be missed and it's not their fault.

2023-03-08 07:45:25 +0000 UTCNah, the sub is still superior, in large part to Mamoru Miyano's supreme, excellent acting. They should watch the sub for a first time watch. The dub though is still excellent and worth a watch, they did a good job adapting it to a western audience. My only critique of the dub is that Okabe sounds like a scientist all the way through, while in the original it's obvious he is playing the part of a "mad scientist." But the acting of everyone in the dub is still good though and it is worth a watch, it's what I did on some rewatches.
David Caine
2023-03-08 07:33:40 +0000 UTCId sadly have to stop watching then :(
Aaron Wright
2023-03-08 06:48:00 +0000 UTCNever. Subs only.
Aaron Wright
2023-03-08 06:47:29 +0000 UTCAhh yes... let the theory crafting begin. Just to answer/confirm some of your guys' questions that don't spoil anything: (1) People usually refer to MC as any of these three, but you can pick whichever rolls off the tongue easier for you two, "Okabe", "Rintarou", or "OkaRin" (2) Yes, Mayushii comes across very air-headed and innocent (3) Yes, the show is confusing for the first few episodes. Things will start to make sense at some point. (4) If I recall correctly, the show has 24 episodes in the season, an OVA that basically counts as episode 25, a movie sequel, a spinoff episode, and another season based on that spinoff. Hope this helps!
MADHOUSE
2023-03-08 05:41:31 +0000 UTCEven though I do enjoy the sub a bit more, the dub for this anime specifically (despite my lack of liking dubs for the most part) is actually really well done. So if you guys make the swap to that, I think the experience will be just as good. Totally up to you guys on what you think will be best for you!
Gabriel Barott
2023-03-08 05:28:33 +0000 UTCThis first episode is one of those where you can come back and rewatch after the series is finished and everything will make sense to you then. It's intentionally confusing. Also, the OVA is technically episode 25, and there is a movie which is supposed to be viewed after the OVA, and a "sequel" called Steins;Gate 0. There's a bit more to how Steins;Gate 0 connects to the main story but it would be a spoiler now and I'm sure it'll come up after you finish this series.
Voduu
2023-03-08 05:15:26 +0000 UTCI would have hoped that the community here would have voted to watch Steins Gate in dub instead. One of the few dubs that felt superior to the sub.
miruryuu
2023-03-08 04:51:43 +0000 UTCI was expecting your iconic use of “loose unit” to be an adjective in describing the protagonist hahah
Russell Gambardella
2023-03-08 04:45:54 +0000 UTCHaha yes everyone who watched the pilot would be lying if they said they weren’t confused at the time! For people who have already seen this show, I’m sure many like are taking guilty pleasure in your confusion hahaha. ❤️
Russell Gambardella
2023-03-08 04:37:40 +0000 UTCSteins Gate is such a top tier show. The dub is one of the best dubs ever. I highly recommend it and I normally watch stuff in sub.
rogueknight
2023-03-08 04:34:08 +0000 UTCI never really had the want to watch this, but I guess I'll check it out along with you two. We will be confused together
Silver
2023-03-08 04:31:15 +0000 UTCA slow-paced beginning, confusing and maybe even kinda dull to some people. But just you wait until episode 12 when everything starts to click and you guys will know why it worths the patience.

Russell Gambardella
2023-03-08 04:10:58 +0000 UTCI've never seen this show, and I'm very confused as well. I would love to see a hunterxhunter reaction. You two are awsome!
FatherWeeb
2023-03-08 03:54:58 +0000 UTCIt'll be fine after once you guys get to know all characters and their wants
AMAN
2023-03-08 03:42:57 +0000 UTCOkay so it wasnt just us 🤣🤣
Carlie & Ange
2023-03-08 03:29:27 +0000 UTCThe first 4 episodes were confusing ha but honestly IMO it's a masterpiece. HXH, Vinland Saga, Steins Gate. In that order
David Salazar
2023-03-08 03:28:31 +0000 UTCI never seen this
ChmpagnShadw
2023-03-08 03:22:48 +0000 UTCyesssss!! also don’t worry if you’re confused, the first episode is kinda supposed to be like that
