    Many thanks to YOU for making this video. It was necessary. She is a SHOCKINGLY underrated character despite the popularity and acclaim of Steins;Gate. Too many times I've seen her entire existence waved off as "just a plot device" or "moe fanservice", but everything you said is the reality of it. Everything revolves around her and she represents everything in the series--Steins;Gate is a great sci-fi, but Mayuri makes it a great character story as well.
    Also, she's the cutest in the world.

      I honestly think the only people that say that Mayuri was used just as a plot device for the story are people that wanted to hate S;G as soon as they started it. They see a moe character and as soon as that happens they tell themselves that S;G can't be considered a masterpiece for that fact.

    I love Mayuri’s character so much. She is not the smartest person in the cast, but she is the one who see the problems of time travel the clearest, because she had already realized that what is important are the memories that we share with the ones we care about. Her conversation with Okabe about everyone forgetting the memories would be sad for the one who remembers and her refusal to change the past when Suzuha killed herself, for they would all forget the good moments they shared, really represents well this ideology. I also like how the show establishes her importance to Okabe without needing to resort to romance. A great character from a masterpiece of a show.

I just couldn’t bring myself to dislike her, and as the story progresses, this girl just makes me wants to put a smile on her face.

    An element you've really mastered in your videos is when to put moments of the anime, be it through dialogue or a more contemplative moment. As your videos tend to speak of the inner workings of a work, it can easily feel distanced and purely on the intellectual side. But your inclusions of clips perfectly make me put the finger on your point and bring back the emotions I've felt while watching the show, making me cry or tear up quite often. Your narration has gotten stronger too, more able of communicating your feelings and yet even more precise in the text. It's been a while that your videos have this quality (they became consistently on that level since your "Haikyuu That one moment" video for me) but I thought I'd write it after all this time having it in the back of my mind. Much love to you and your work.

    This was such a good video!
    I just have one more thing I wanna add though: The OST "Gate of Steiner".
    I feel that this OST perfectly captures the feeling you talked about in the video - of excitement and interest caused by the mystery but at the same time giving off this underlying sense of melancholy and urgency that something precious to us is about to be lost. I think that this OST is such a masterful piece to completely represent what Steins; Gate "feels" like. It perfectly captures that tone, or that atmosphere, Steins; Gate has, which you talked about in the video.
    I really, really love your videos! I'm very interested in knowing what shows (it doesn't even have to be just anime) you really love but not enough people know about it or have watched it.

While s;g 0 shows the impact of the mad scientist, seeing okabe being a more down to earth person, mayuri didn't get that. People just don't understand how much she contributes to the storyline because her words seem to be somewhat be childish and straightfoward but people forget that those words guided okabe and christina to the right decisions . She's the only one who can speak up the things that no other character can through a seemingly innocent, yet impactful way. Thank you so much for making this video so more people can comprehend the beauty of this show's characters as they deserve it.

  • @TheSchokodragon
    @TheSchokodragon 4 роки тому +9

    Great video, Mayuri is just the best. What the fans underrating her seem to miss is the fact that she is the one thing keeping Okabe *sane* even before the events of the series. Throughout the whole show, Okabe is shown as a man struggling with social situations and showing affection and in this way, Mayuri embodies the polar opposite, constantly patting everyone's heads and showing nothing but vocal support. The important part tho is that while growing up, she must've shown Okabe that he is okay the way he is and we see that in the fact that his protective actions speak volumes in comparison to his awkward words. The more honest, openly caring side of him we get to see only in the second half of the series is something Mayuri has always seen inside him from the very beginning. Every time a new character is introduced to Okabe (or even the first-time viewer!), they see him as this absolute crazy jerk and wonder how someone as sweet as Mayuri chooses to spend her time with him. But in the same way that Okabe took her under his wing of joy through mad-scientist-fantasy on that fateful day at the graveyard, she took his hand and taught him that humans are happier and stronger when they're not alone. A great scene to emphasize their whole arc is their little talk on the roof in ep 12 where Mayuri remarks how happy Okabe seems, considering he "always was so sad" just a few months ago and he is just shocked, probably realizing this himself for the first time - she knows people better than they know themselves.
    And the best part about Mayuri (something I wish you, Aleczandxr talked about more!) is that she's not painted as a love-interest for the MC (discounting SG0 here, huge disservice to the character they did there IMO). Their love for each other is purely family-like and accordingly strong. The very moment Mayuri's safety is threatened, Okabe's facade breaks down spectacularly, we see him panicking, screaming, sobbing, showing aggression even. In the wordline where Okabe accepts her loss, guess where he ends up? Deeply depressed, at the graveyard every single day, just like Mayuri when she lost her granny. It's like you said, Mayuri is a sign of everything being alright, at least in Okabe's world. She is the embodiment of innocence, hope and affection in a world overshadowed by vileness, despair and loneliness, a world that Okabe wades through and overcomes when Mayuri slaps him, not because she understands any of the apocalypse-talk that just happened in that moment, but because she saw Okabe abandon a person he cared for and can not allow that. Her Tuturu saved psyches and lives.

    Steins;gate has been my favorite anime for nearly 5 years now and I remember the feeling of watching it for the first time. I was in love. The show took me through so many different emotional places that I could never not think about it, I ended up binging it in a one day span. It was the greatest first tome watch of anything I’ve ever seen, that being said it’s not only that. The second and third and even fourth time were just as amazing but for a different reason. Since I knew the logic and I knew the events I could just enjoy the anime for the characters, this is where I believe the anime truly shines. The way all of the cast come together and enjoy their time is the reason I love this show. The reason I’ll never forget it and I’ll never have an anime or any piece of media ranked above it is for that fact alone. The reason I loved 0 so much is due to the same fact. Even though kurisu was my favorite female lead through S;G I loved 0 just as much as the first series because every character is just so special to me. I appreciate the effort and time that it took you to make this video especially after 9 years of the first shows release. Thank you for putting everything that matters into words because I know I don’t have that sort of understanding for myself.

    This video hits upon just some of the many reasons why I love Steins;Gate so very much. It stands as my favorite anime of all time, and I imagine it would take nothing less than a miracle for that to change. Until today I didn’t know people doubted her importance to the plot outside of the narrative. She’s the bridge between Okabe and the world, and I love how the anime goes about slowly showing us this. Regardless I must commend you, content creator for this wonderful video. It’s very well put together and I quite enjoyed it.

    I hated how underrated Mayuri is in the steins;gate universe, but to be fair, I didn't really understand her the first time I watched the show, most of her important moments are subtle and are quickly overshadowed by a transition into another scene, or something suddenly occurs that doesn't give me enough time to think about her moment. Imo, her character is the most complex in the series, and it is damn well done. I recommend listening to her character song to anyone who is still doubtful about her character traits, it's heartbreaking (it's called "Gentle evening" or "Yasashii yuugure").

And I love the way that even though the story changed, this was the same theme across not only the two seasons but also the movie. Where it was now red head girls turn to experience the same isolation okabe had to endure by being the only one to see the truth. It’s the isolation of knowledge.

    Lovely video which perfectly captures Mayuri's role, but I do feel the need at this point to mention how the ending's message and themes at least are defined by Kurisu's world view most of all. After all, it's her who believes that we're all connected in some intangible way and that, as long as at least one person remembers something, it is not meaningless. Mayuri's views define Okabe's realization of how lonely time travel can be and what really matters, but it is Kurisu's romantic heart that allows him to realize that his lived experiences were not for nothing, that love transcends time itself, that he can still reforge those bonds, that there are people who will believe him - which Kurisu does through various timelines, including the S;G one, allowing them to reconnect. Notably, the attractor field where Kurisu dies is just as fucked as the one Mayuri dies in, kind of cementing that both of them are necessary for a bright future to exist. So while I'd agree that Mayuri is central to the story, I do think the optimistic ending and message finds its origin in Kurisu's character - as is appropriate, considering it is *her* true ending in the visual novel.

    • @Aleczandxr
      @Aleczandxr  2 роки тому

      To be clear, nothing in the video was meant to dismiss anything about Kurisu - it doesn’t do so in text or subtext. Of course - she’s essential to the story as well and I’ve gushed about her to a large degree in the past.

    Seeing Okabe go through so much trauma and struggle to save Mayuri, a precious character who is so positive, energetic, and caring about everyone, is such a deep, emotional, and intense story. I was rooting for Okabe to go and protect the people he loves and cares for, no matter how many times he fails. In a way, he is like Subaru (who wishes to protect Emilia no matter how many times he dies, carrying that pain) and Kirito (where he swore to protect other people in SAO despite his own failures/trauma while becoming more compassionate and stronger as a character when he was trapped in Aincrad, and found that the power of relationships is powerful despite being in a virtual world.)

    So true. Mayuri was such an essential part of the overarching story of Steins;Gate and its theming. It's insane that a lot of viewers don't always see the same importance in the character, which is a shame to me, since Mayuri was the quintessential voice of intuition in a world of scientific fact. A world that wanted to create progress without considering the cost or the outcome (an outcome that was mentally and societally disastrous, it turns out).
    And she knew that, somehow. She valued the time with the group over the scientific progress, and in all actuality, that was what the lab was founded on. And she ended up being instrumental in getting everyone back to that timeline.
