''[[{{ROOTPAGENAME}}]]'' has a relatively small cast, with only eight important characters, and only a handful of recurring side characters. Listed tropes will also come from ''Steins;Gate 0''. Spin-off titles will be included as well. They include:
 
'''''WARNING: New information added may contain unmarked spoilers, so you have be warned.'''''
Line 76:
*[[The Glomp]]: Does this a couple of times to Kurisu; first when they first meet, and second when the latter returns to Japan in the film.
**She does it to Okabe at the end her route in the spin-off, which humorously knocks him over.
* [[I Want My Beloved to Be Happy]]: Despite her [[Love Confession]] towards the end of ''Steins;Gate 0,'' she can not stand to see Okabe looking so miserable that she goes back to August 2010 with Suzuha to correct the time line for his happiness rather than her own.
* [[In-Series Nickname]]: "Mayushii", a nickname she gives to herself, itself a portmanteau of her full name: '''Mayu'''ri '''Shii'''na.
* [[Incorruptible Pure Pureness]]: She's a pretty mild example: while Okabe and Daru are all gung-ho about hacking into SERN and other dubious activities, Mayuri disapproves even when it's clear that SERN is up to some pretty shady business.
* {{spoiler|[[Kill the Cutie]]: ''Many times''. Okabe went through many timelines to try to save her, but the few times he did ended badly for Kurisu}}.
*[[Meido]]: While she's at work. She also wears a blonde wig styled into a ponytail while on the clock.
*[[Nice Girl]]: Sweet and firendlyfriendly, Mayuri dislikes conflict and wants her fellow Lab Mems to get along with each other, almost acting as the Peacekeeper.
* [[Nice Hat]]: Almost always wears a wide brimmed, frilly looking blue hat.
*[[She Cleans Up Nicely]]: Downplayed, since she's already rather pretty to begin with, but nevertheless, she becomes even more beautiful when preparing for her photoshoot in her route in ''My Darling's Embrace'',
Line 132 ⟶ 133:
* {{spoiler|[[Sobriquet]]: "Mother of Time Machine", in the future where SERN rules}}.
* [[She's Got Legs]]: Though she's quite short (5' 3"), her legs are rather long, even being longer than her torso. They're also covered by black stockings and a pair of dark mini shorts.
*[[Smug Smiler]]: One of her sprites in visual novels depicts her with a smug look on her face, coupled with a cheeky wink for good measure. For extra smugness, a similar sprite will depict the same expression with her [[Badass Arm-Fold|arms folded]], too.
* [[Teen Genius]]: From an early age, she studied math and science like crazy at the expense of everything else, which has left her a more respected scientist than her father, even though she's seventeen when the story starts.
* [[Took a Level in Badass]]: She's one of the 2 guest characters in the 2D fighting game ''[[Phantom Breaker]]'', and is the only normal human, but she can fight an ''even'' match against superpowered adversaries using lab gadgets. It should be noted that she's among the only 2 characters who have 2 [[Finishing Move|supers]].
Line 158 ⟶ 160:
* [[In-Series Nickname]]: Everybody calls him "Daru".
* [[Lovable Sex Maniac]]: Whenever a girl lets loose an [[Accidental Innuendo]], he'll ask them to repeat it. He also insists on having all the technical stuff explained to him in terms of eroge.
*[[Love At First Sight]]: Whether it's in the main series or in spin-offs, Daru's first time meeting Yuki Amane is this.
* {{spoiler|[[Luke, I Am Your Father]]: He's Suzuha's}}.
* [[Megane]]
Line 177 ⟶ 180:
----
* {{spoiler|[[A-Cup Angst]]: Gets this when he turns into a girl but retains the same appearance}}.
*[[Ambiguously Gay]]: He is strongly implied to be attracted to Okabe on several occasions, even having his own route in ''My Darling's Embrace''. That said, he does spend a lot of his screen time hanging around the other girls, but is never enough to indicate whether he has romantic interest in them.
* [[Bokukko]]
*[[Butt Monkey]]: poor Ruka is reduced to this role in the ''My Darling's Embrace'' spin-off. Whether he is over-emotional about old fables, lets his feelings towards Okabe slip and the others catch on, or he finds himself in Okabe's crosshairs of whatever scheme he comes up with, Ruka just cannot catch a break.
Line 186 ⟶ 190:
* {{spoiler|[[Gender Bender]]}}: After sending his D-Mail, {{spoiler|he becomes a full-fledged female in the following timelines}}.
*[[Hair Decorations]]: He has a hair clip with a purple skull on it... "But... he's a guy!"
* [[In-Series Nickname]]: "Rukako", used by Okabe, probably because it sounds more manly.
*[[Katanas Are Just Better]]: Okabe's primary method of toughening Ruka up is by having him swing a cheap katana on a daily basis. In 2036, Ruka has mastered this weapon, and becomes pretty badass with it.
*[[Limited Wardrobe]]: Surprisingly averted. With the exception of Faris, Ruka is the only other character with more than one outfit, which he rotates quite often. This includes spin-off titles which add a few more outfits to his wardrobe.
Line 211 ⟶ 215:
*[[Attention Deficit Ooh Shiny]]: she has a very short attention span, judging by how she goes about cleaning her apartment. According to Okabe, it's quite the sight to behold!
*[[Berserk Button]]: She is super attached to her mobile phone; try to snatch it from her, and she goes berserk until she retrieves it! Even offering to input your contact info for her causes her to get antsy.
*{{spoiler|[[Bitch in Sheep's Clothing]]}}: Subverted in the sense that she isn't ruthless because she's trained to be a cold hearted killer, but rather because her emotional vulnerability makes her easy to manipulate into doing other people's biddings.
*{{spoiler|[[Bitch in Sheep's Clothing]]}}
*[[Dark and Troubled Past]]: She was the product of an unwanted pregnancy, thus was most likely subjected to a lot of abuse from her parents until they just abandoned her. She was also ostracized by her peers during high school, and even made attempts on her own life due to her sense of worthlessness. Her route in ''My Darling's Embrace'' explores this, as she mentions that she wanted to die in the past, her difficulties with socialising, before she tearfully acknowledges her feelings of worthlessness and why she feels that way to Okabe when he asks her directly why she runs away from people who do care about her.
*[[Defrosting Ice Queen]]: Her route in ''My Darling's Embrace'' basically has Okabe trying to get her to open up about her feelings.
Line 257 ⟶ 261:
**Her cosplay outfit also shows off her mid-section quite well when she first attends ComiMa.
*[[Braids of Action]]/[[Tomboyish Sidetails]]: Always sports these. The only time we see her without them is in ''0'' when they come undone after {{Spoiler|a vicious fight with Kagari.}}
*[[Captain Obvious Reveal]]: In the movie, specifically. They hide her faceidentity for a whilebit by hiding her face and putting a filter over her voice, but when she enters Kurisu's hotel room to give her cryptic advice, wethe seefilm makes little effort to hide her, shadowthanks to her withfamiliar braided sidetails, and Cherami Leigh's voice is briefly unfiltered, both making it painfully obvious that yes, it's hervoice.
*[[Cat Smile]]: often has one in the VN's, like Mayuri and Faris. Fittingly enough, she takes a job at MayQueen in ''My Darling's Embrace'' if the player pursues Faris' route''.''
*[[The Cutie]]: Not to the same extent as Mayuri or Faris, but she does have her moments.
Line 280 ⟶ 284:
* [[Slacker]]: Much to Mr. Braun's annoyance, Suzuha tends to slack off from her work.
*[[Talking to Herself]]: In ''Linear Bounded Phenogram,'' she seeks advice and comfort from her alternate selves. Only she can see them.
* [[Tomboy and Girly Girl]]: She is the Tomboy while Mayuri and Faris are the Girly Girls. That said, she isn'tcan afraidbe toa letlittle herbit girlyof sideboth outherself, especially in more peaceful world lines.
* [[Totally Radical]]: Suzuha often speaks like this. Hell, first thing she says (in Japanese) is "Oha!!", a greeting that was considered to be dated by the 2000's. Another allusion to her true past, maybe?
*[[Tragic Keepsake]]: She keeps a badge that her dad gave her; the only thing she has that reminds her of him.
Line 296 ⟶ 300:
**Her route in ''My Darling's Embrace'' reveals that the ears aren't actually part of a headband, but rather they are attached with hair clips.
* [[The Ace]]: A master of the board game Rai-Net Battle to the extent where she ranks nationally in the competitive scene.
* [[Animal Motifs]]: Clearly, it's cats, sincegiven theher maidcute café she works at (and owns) has a catplayful themenature. She wearsexhibits a headbandlot withof strange cat-like earsbehaviours, andincluding worksher "meow"verbal intotic, everything she says.

OkabeThen evenof describes how shecourse, there''looks''s likeher atrademark cat fromears the waythat she narrowsalmost hernever eyes as he rubs hertakes headoff.
*[[Beat Them At Their Own Game]]: Does this with Okarin frequently, to his annoyance because she is so good at the theatrics and applying his ramblings to her own fantasies that he feels he cannot beat her. She is also unfazed by Okabe's (as Hououin Kyouma) attempts to emotionally manipulate her, which only frustrates him even more.
* [[Because You Were Nice to Me]]: After Okabe rescues her from a group of thugs, she allows him to call her by real name as a sign of gratitude and trust.
Line 314 ⟶ 318:
* [[The Glomp]]: She glomps a random guy in an Upa costume when she overheats in ''Linear Bounded Phenogram''. Does so to Okabe a few times in ''0.''
*[[I Lied]]: During her route in ''My Darling's Embrace,'' she has a "spell" that makes Okabe fall in love with her if he hears her real name. By the end though, she admits that she lied about it, and confesses she's the one who falls in love with whoever calls her "Rumiho". By the sounds of it, she was waiting on Okabe specifically to do so.
*[[In-Series Nickname]]: Faris Nyannyan is not her real name. It is simply a stage name she goes by in RaiNet tournaments, and while she's at work. Very few people know what her real name is. Unless she gives you her full trust, she'd rather you call her Faris.
* [[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".
Line 333 ⟶ 337:
**"Cheshire Break" (see Living Lie Detector)
**"Mixy Mix Gaze" (charms her guests by gazing into their eyes while flawlessly mixing their drink)
**"The Touch" (can make onea fallman formelt in her arms by wrapping herself around their armtheirs)
**"Hearing Inferno" (enhanced hearing)
* [[Spell My Name with an "S"]]: "Faris" is apparently the official spelling, but "Feiris" and "Feyris" also see heavy use. Mayuri even calls her "Feris-chan" in Japanese.
