Line 5:
* [[Complete Monster]]: Kurisu's father, who is willing to {{spoiler|steal his own daughter's work and then kill her to keep her quiet}}, all out of jealousy since he can't handle the thought of his own daughter being smarter than him.
** Given some of the stuff said about the dystopian future, SERN seems to be this as well.
* [[Fetish Fuel]]: The girls at May Queen. Also Ruka, an extremely [[Bishonen]] male who often wears a Miko outfit, and one time cosplayed due to Mayuri's insistence. {{spoiler|Goes even further when he [[Gender Bender|changes his gender]].}}.
* [[Gateway Series]]: The visual novel is cited as one of the best ones for new players to check out, as a popular anime series was based on it and it is one of the few to have an official English version.
* [[Harsher in Hindsight]]:
* [[Harsher in Hindsight]]: {{spoiler|If you rewatch the series and see all those people sending D-mails, it seems much harsher since you know Okabe has to reverse them in order to save Mayuri.}}
** {{spoiler|Okabe'sIf rantsyou aboutrewatch the Organizationseries and see all those people beingsending secretD-mails, agentsit becomesseems much harsher oncesince SERNyou isknow introducedOkabe andhas Moekato turnsreverse outthem toin beorder ato secretsave SERN agent.Mayuri}}.
** {{spoiler|Okabe's rants about the Organization and people being secret agents becomes much harsher once SERN is introduced and Moeka turns out to be a secret SERN agent}}.
* [[Hilarious in Hindsight]]: A few weeks after ending of anime, CERN published about neutrinos traveling faster than light.
* [[Ho Yay]]: Despite him insisting otherwise, it is hinted that Ruka does have romantic feelings for Okabe, {{spoiler|even when he was male}}. Okabe also sees him as a [[Stupid Sexy Flanders]].
* [[Les Yay]]: At least that how Itaru sees Mayuri showing Kurisu around.
* [[Memetic Mutation]]: [[Product Placement|Dr. Pepper]]: [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZjQrP5ONzWU an intellectual drink for the chosen ones]! It's to ''[[Steins;Gate]]'' as Pizza Hut is to ''[[Code Geass]]''.
* [[Moral Event Horizon]]:
** {{spoiler|Moeka killing Mayuri in several timelines.}}.
** {{spoiler|Kurisu's father stealing his daughter's paper and then either gets her killed or stabs Okabe. Unlike Moeka, there isn't a [[Complete Monster|single point of redemption in his favor]].}}.
* [[The Scrappy]]: Moeka became instantly hated when {{spoiler|she revealed she was a SERN spy and murdered Mayuri}}.
** [[Rescued from the Scrappy Heap]]: For some viewers when her [[Freudian Excuse|traumatic past]] was revealed as well as her {{spoiler|[[Redemption Equals Death]] moment}}. Only some, though.
*** {{spoiler|Drama CD 3 is this for Moeka.}}.
** Kurisu's father.
* [[Sophomore Slump]]: Inverted to an insane degree. The visual novel is the first one in the ''Science Adventure'' series to be released overseas, and the anime is the most well-known ''and'' well-received adaption in the series.
* [[Ugly Cute]]: Daru to some.
* [[Viewer Gender Confusion]] -: Ruka is very feminine, so much so that Mayuri asks him to try on her cosplay costumes. He also wears a [[Miko]]'s traditional robes normally.
{{quote|'''Rintaro''':"[[Lampshade Hanging|But he's a guy]]."}}
* [[The Woobie]]: Pretty much all of the characters fill this role at least once during the series.
