The eight main characters are listed in order of their Lab inductions.
==
=== Rintaro Okabe ===
[[File:128387_3110.jpg|frame|'''Voiced by:''' [[Mamoru Miyano]] (JP), J. Michael Tatum (EN)]]
{{quote|'''EN:''' ''Imma bust out some questions yo, so holla at yer booooiiiiiii! Word to your motha!''
Line 85 ⟶ 87:
**In ''My Darling Embrace'', he accidentally hurts Faris while trying to steal her cat ears as payback for teasing him (not realising until he gets a closer look that they are attached with hair clips rather than being part of a headband).
=== Mayuri Shiina ===
[[File:mayushii_4945.jpg|frame|'''Voiced by:''' [[Kana Hanazawa]] (JP), Ashly Burch (credited as Jackie Ross), Megan Shipman (''Steins;Gate 0'', Episode 14 onwards) (EN)]]
{{quote|''Tutturuuu! I prefer "Mayushii."|Her introduction as Lab Member 002}}
Line 131 ⟶ 133:
**That said, a possible romance arc between the two is explored in ''My Darling's Embrace'' as a potential [[What Could Have Been|What Could Be]] scenario.
=== Itaru Hashida/Daru ===
{{quote|''You know you said "You just wanna see me eat a banana" just a moment ago? Could you repeat that for me? Only, with more of a whisper?|One of many examples of Daru asking for a repeat of a Double Entendre}}
Line 171 ⟶ 173:
* [[Younger Than They Look|Younger Than He Looks]]: You'd think Daru was in his mid-20's by how he acts, looks, and sounds, but you'd be wrong; he's 19, a year older than Okabe.
=== Kurisu Makise ===
[[File:114399_4218.jpg|frame|'''Voiced by:''' [[Asami Imai]] (JP), Trina Nishimura (EN)]]
{{quote|''Oh for the love of- Could you be any more of a Wesley?''|Kurisu accidentally slipping internet slang into her dialogue}}
Line 234 ⟶ 236:
* {{spoiler|[[You Have Outlived Your Usefulness]]: Implied to be her fate at SERN's hands, after she completed the time machine for them in 2034}}.
=== Moeka Kiryuu ===
[[File:moebitch_1091.jpg|frame|'''Voiced by:''' [[Saori Goto]] (JP), Jessica Cavanagh (EN)]]
{{quote|''First off: You have access to knowledge you shouldn't have. Second: You built a time machine. And third: You intended to go public with it.''|Moeka's explanation of why she is targetting the Future Gadget Lab}}
Line 287 ⟶ 289:
**Moeka is afraid of this trope in ''Steins;Gate 0''. Learning about the potential of AI has led her to become fearful that technology will replace human workers in the future, but she already feels inadequate since she feels she doesn't have any special talents or unique skills, and she believes she can be easily replaced. After spending time with Maho however, she eventually snaps out of this mindset.
=== Ruka Urushibara ===
[[File:rukako_3830.jpg|frame|'''Voiced by:''' [[Yuu Kobayashi]] (JP), Lindsay Seidel (EN)]]
{{quote|''Urushibara Ruka: Delicate as an orchid, fair as cherry blossom. The personification of feminine grace...and a dude.''|Okabe's description of Ruka}}
Line 325 ⟶ 327:
* {{spoiler|[[Transgender]]: Why she sends her D-Mail}}.
=== Faris NyanNyan/{{spoiler|Rumiho Akiha}} ===
[[File:113750_7317.jpg|frame|'''Voiced by:''' Haruko Momoi (JP), Jad Saxton (EN)]]
{{quote|''
Mayuri's co-worker at the May Queen Cafe, which she also owns. She is also a skilled RaiNet player, but she chooses not to compete in tournaments officially. {{spoiler|After she sends her D-Mail, Akihabara loses everything related with moe culture as her father is still alive. She also is the first character to remember memories from other timelines apart from Okabe and Ruka}}. She is Lab Member 007; a designation Okabe reluctantly gives her when she wants to send a D-mail.
Line 343 ⟶ 345:
*[[Bratty Half-Pint]]: Faris sometimes shows shades of this when she doesn't get what she wants, mainly when Okabe doesn't play along with her bizarre stories. A more humorous example is when she runs up to a random person wearing an Upa costume, hugs them, and throws a tantrum when Suzuha drags her away.
**Cold rejection though (as Daru once showed us) will really open up the waterworks for her.
* [[Catgirl]]: Justified that she works as waitress in a cat themed maid café, which she also happens to own. Okabe even lampshades how much she looks like a cat when she smiles. She also loves having her head rubbed. Whether she's speaking in English or Japanese, she sprinkles cat lingo into half the stuff she says; even Fubuki lampshades this in the special episode of ''Steins;Gate 0.''
{{Quote|'''Fubuki:''' ''Did she [Faris] just say "Meow-ment?"''}}
* [[Cat Smile]]: Her default expression is a playful smile. Not so much in the anime adaptation of the original ''Steins;Gate'', though it comes back in ''Steins;Gate 0''.
* [[Childhood Friends]]: To her surprise, she is revealed to be one with Kurisu in "Vermillion Soteria" thanks to the pre-existing friendship between their fathers.
*[[Cloudcuckoolander]]: She is every bit as barmy as Okabe (minus the evil laughter), but being quick witted has its advantages, since she will absorb his ramblings and add them to hers. Once she drops her mask however, she is much more elegant and soft-spoken, but she still retains a mischievous aura.
**The way that she and Okabe are able to carry these odd conversations so effortlessly like they're completely normal even impresses Kurisu somewhat, albeit in the sense that she's more confused by it.
*[[Color Failure|Colour Failure]]: During ''0's'' Valentine's Day episode, the girls' attempt to make Valentine's Day chocolates ends in such a disaster that this happens to her. Probably the one time she shows signs of distress.
**Also happens to her butler, Kuroki, in Episode 10 after Maho (and later Moeka) turns her guest room into a rubbish tip.
Line 353 ⟶ 356:
*[[Crocodile Tears]]: She tends to do this quite often just to get whatever she wants. In regard to wanting to use the Time Leap Machine to win a RaiNet match, she pulls this trick on Okabe when he casts doubt on her that she intends to use it for this reason.
**She may or may not have pulled this trick on Ruka to persuade him to take the lead role for her café's PV, but since the game only uses static sprites, that's up for debate.
**She ends up crying for real later on in her ending when she realises that {{Spoiler|Okabe has no memories of
* [[Cry Cute]]: {{spoiler|When she decides to undo the effects of her D-Mail}}. In general though, she is prone to just bursting into tears at the slightest provocation, more so in the games.
**You'll even notice that she has tears running down her cheeks in one of her sprites if you look closely.
▲**You'll even notice that she has tears running down her cheeks in one of her sprites if you look closely.
* [[Cuddle Bug]]: Faris tends to get rather cuddly with Okabe on multiple occasions in ''Steins;Gate 0.''
* [[Curtains Match the Window]]: Pink hair and pink eyes, though her eyes are closer to burgundy in the anime.
Line 362 ⟶ 364:
* [[Department of Redundancy Department]]: When the lab mems take up work at MayQueen in one worldline, she gives Ruka the professional name "Luka Nyan Nyannyan". Yes, really.
* {{spoiler|[[Disappeared Dad]]: Her father died, but he's alive in the timelines after she sent her D-Mail}}.
* [[Femme Fatale]]: Of the non-dangerous variety, but she will use her sweet charm and feline mannerisms to charm any man to her whim (of course, wearing a French maid uniform certainly helps). Tries using these to get Okabe to spill the beans on his time travel antics, but Okabe isn't so easily tempted by her seductive trickery. Daru on the other hand...
* [[Foil]]: to her business rival, 4°C/Shido. Faris believes strongly in excellent customer service, treating her workers with love and respect, and making her establishment warm and inviting, while Shido only cares about profitability and will use any underhanded methods to achieve his goals.
* [[Gamer Chick]]: Not just a fan of RaiNet Battle, but she's also a competitive player, and she's pretty damn good at it too it seems. She's also a huge fan of retro PCs.
Line 371 ⟶ 374:
*[[Iconic Item]]: Notice how frequently those cat ears are mentioned? You can count the number of scenes where she '''doesn't''' wear them on one hand.
*[[Improbable Age]]: Would you believe that 17-year-old Faris (a.k.a {{Spoiler|Rumiho Akiha}}) is actually the owner of {{Spoiler|'''all''' of Akihabara}}?
*
▲* [[Large Ham]]: Faris loves her theatrics just as much as Okabe does, especially when they're talking to each other.
* [[Living Lie Detector]]: She can spot whether a person is being dishonest or not simply by looking into their eyes. She calls this "Cheshire Break", but it's just razor-sharp intuition.
* [[Meaningful Name]]: Her real name is {{Spoiler|"Rumiho Akiha" as in "Akihabara", due to the influence on the city's Moe culture.}}
Line 384 ⟶ 386:
*[[Otaku]]: Loves anime, moe, and otaku culture, even dressing as a stereotypical anime character.
*[[Precision F-Strike]]: The usually cheery and playful Faris outright calls Shido a bastard when talking about his underhanded/law breaking business tactics. A surprising moment since Faris very, '''''very''''' rarely shows her anger and frustration in front of anyone.
*[[Pseudonym]]: Obviously, Faris Nyannyan is not her real name, rather it is a pseudonym she uses in public whether she's at work or attending RaiNet competitions. Only her family and closest friends know what her real name is.
*[[Rapunzel Hair]]: When her massive twin tails are undone, her hair is very long.
*[[Ripple-Effect-Proof Memory]]: Though not as strong as Okabe's Reading Steiner, Faris is able to {{Spoiler|remember her life from the original timeline as a maid café owner when Okabe takes her to the building that MayQueen originally occupied}}.
Line 406 ⟶ 409:
* [[Verbal Tic]]: She ends her sentences with "-nya", or the word's English equivalent, "-meow".
=== Suzuha Amane ===
[[File:113764_4425.jpg|frame|'''Voiced by:''' [[Yukari Tamura]] (JP), Cherami Leigh (EN)]]
{{quote|''HEY YOU GUUUYYYYSSS!!! Sorry, that's how the kids are saying "What's up!" these days.''|Suzuha's bizarre self-introduction}}
Line 454 ⟶ 457:
* [[What the Hell, Hero?]]: Is visibly weirded out by Okabe's bizarre attempts to speak jive/gratuitous English.
{{Quote|''I can't believe you said "Word to your Mother" to this guy, you freak.''}}
==Yuugo Tennouji ==▼
== Side Characters ==
▲=== Yuugo Tennouji ===
{{quote|''Don't encourage the guy! He's already whacked enough as it is!.''|Tennouji's nutshell description of Okabe to Suzuha}}
Line 476 ⟶ 482:
*[[Walking Spoiler]]: It is difficult to talk about his involvement in the second half of the story without spoiling his true identity.
=== Nae Tennouji ===
{{quote|''Umm, how do you wash your brain?''|Nae questioning the concept of brainwashing}}
Line 499 ⟶ 505:
*[[Suspiciously Specific Denial]]: When pressed by her dad about Suzuha being outside with her, she responds that she was, "but she definitely wasn't slacking off!"
==
=== Yuki {{spoiler|Amane}} ===
{{quote|'''Voiced by:''' {{spoiler|[[Yukari Tamura]] (JP), Cherami Leigh (EN)}}}}
Appears in the 25th episode: she is a woman whom Rintaro initially mistakes for Suzuha. {{spoiler|Actually, she is Suzuha's future mother and Itaru's wife-to-be}}.
Line 505 ⟶ 513:
'''This character's section has been moved to the character page for ''Steins;Gate 0''. For more information about this character, go to [[Steins;Gate 0/Characters|this page here]].'''
=== 4°C/Shido ===
{{Quote|''...if you bear your fangs to me, I'll make sure you'll never work in this town again.Hehehehehe! AHAHAHAHAHA!''|Shido's vow to ruin Faris' career in ''My Darling's Embrace''}}
'''Voiced by''': Minoru Shiraishi (JP), Ian Sinclair (EN)
Line 539 ⟶ 547:
* [[Would Hit a Girl]]: Hits Faris square in the head (though it was more bad luck on her end) after she refuses to give in to his demands.
=== Kuroki ===
{{Quote|''The young mistress will be with you shortly.''|Kuroki as he greets Okabe and co.}}
A minor character in the series. Not much is known about Kuroki, other than the fact that he is Faris' butler. Though he only makes a one-off appearance in the original game and anime, he is more involved in other characters' stories in ''Linear Bounded Phenogram.''
