Line 59:
* [[Seen It All]]: His "Reading Steiner" allows him to retain memories of alternate world lines.
* [[Serious Business]]: You know this is the case when he either drops the theatrics for a bit, or when he addresses Kurisu by her proper name.
* [[Shirtless Scene]]: He is seen without a T-shirt at the end of the Faris route, which has both Faris and Mayuri rubbing medicine over his body.
* [[Shout-Out]]: He thinks Suzuha looks like someone out of ''[[Street Fighter]]'' without her track top.
** He indirectly references ''[[Back to the Future]]'' when thinking about Suzuha's predicament in her route.
** He makes a ''[[Pokémon]]'' reference when he mentions Upa being more popular than a certain electric yellow rat.
*[[Sore Loser]]: Cannot handle losing a game of RaiNet to anyone, be it Kurisu or Suzuha, and especially gets pissed off when Kurisu outsmarts him in a debate. Cannot stand that Faris plays into his delusional ramblings so effortlessly since he feels she does it better he does, and thus cannot beat her.
*[[Tickle Torture]]: ''My Darling's Embrace'' reveals that Okabe is rather ticklish, as described under Shirtless Scene above.
* [[Tsundere]]: He's not as blatant as Kurisu, but he fills this category as well, as is cheerfully pointed out by Mayuri.
* [[Will They or Won't They?]]: Shares this dynamic with Kurisu.
Line 81 ⟶ 83:
*[[Break the Cutie]]: Very much so.
* [[Catch Phrase]]: Her "Tutturu~" whenever she greets someone.
* [[Cat Smile]]: JustifiedPart thatof sheher workdefault as a waitressexpression in athe cat themed maid cafégames. SeemsShe tonever onlyhas be a thingone in the visual novelsanime, though.
* [[Childhood Friends]]: With Okabe.
* [[Cosplay Otaku Girl]]: She loves cosplay, but is only interested in making the costumes and having others wear them.
* [[The Cutie]]: Whether you like her or not, there is no denying her sweet and innocent personality.
* [[The Ditz]]: She tends not to understand anything that's going on in the lab and, unlike Daru, doesn't seem to get it even after having it simplified. When Mayuri says that one of the names Kurisu came up for to describe what they're doing was too complicated, Kurisu nearly says it doesn't count because Mayuri is dumb, which Okabe catches her on.
Line 187 ⟶ 189:
* [[Lethal Chef]]: Her apple pie is considered a lethal weapon.
* [[My Name Is Not Durwood|My Name Is Not CHRISTINA!]]: That pretty much speaks for itself...
* [[Not So Above It All]]: Against her better judgement, she is perfectly willing to go along with Okabe's crazy schemes with enough prodding.
*[[Oh Crap|Oh Crap!]]: Her reaction every time she drops internet lingo into her dialogue. Also, when she unwittingly makes a sexual innuendo, and it's pointed out to her.
* [[Omnidisciplinary Scientist]]: Is a neuroscientist but is apparently well-versed enough in theoretical physics to conceptualize and build a time machine.
Line 229 ⟶ 232:
*[[I Just Want to Be Loved]]: Part of the reason she acts like this is because she never got any love or affection from her parents. Hence the reason she gets so attached to FB the first moment they give her the positive affirmation she desperately craves.
**The spin-off games explore this side of Moeka in thorough detail, particularly in her own episode in ''Linear Bounded Phenogram'', "The Quantum Awakening". She is so desperate to please FB that she makes every excuse she can to push her friends away when they get close to her, until she understands how important friends are to where she has Okabe send a D-mail on her behalf to keep herself from ever becoming a Rounder in the first place.
**''My Darling's Embrace'' further delves into her background, which Okabe uses as the steppingstone to help her open up a little bit. With Tennouji being her legal guardian in that worldline, we get a better understanding of how Moeka functions as a person, and the positive impact Okabe and the rest of the Lab Mems have had on her emotionally. It is after she has a Heroic BSOD towards the end when Okabe asks her directly that she finally opens up to the emotional damage she suffered from, and the former's affirmation that people do care about her thatis shethe canfirst beginstep to healhealing from it.
* [[In-Series Nickname]]: Rintaro calls her [[Mobile Fighter G Gundam|"Shining Finger"]] because she can text someone lightning fast. Sometimes he calls the "mail demon" because of the frequency her mails arrive in his phone.
*[[Innocent Fanservice Girl]]: Is blissfully unaware of how sexy she looks in lingerie, as she only chose it because it was easy to move around in for Faris' slumber party, which Maho herself lampshades. Doesn't stop Faris from getting touchy feely with her, though!
Line 312 ⟶ 315:
*[[Cloudcuckoolander]]: She is every bit as barmy as Okabe, 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.
*[[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.
*[[Color Motif|Colour Motif]]: Pink features quite prominently, possibly to emphasis her girly nature as well as the reasons listed under Animal Motif.
**Also happens to her butler, Kuroki, in Episode 10 after Maho (and later Moeka) turns her guest room into a rubbish tip.
*[[Color Motif|Colour Motif]]: Pink features quite prominently, possibly to emphasis her girly nature as well as the reasons listed under Animal Motif.
*[[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.
Line 341 ⟶ 344:
*[[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.
*[[Rapunzel Hair]]: When her massive twin tails are undone, her hair is ridiculouslyvery long.
* [[Rose-Haired Girl]]: Her energetic, playful attitude and pink hair matching is quite possibly not a coincidence at all: as much as she loves anime culture and considering the otherwise natural-ish hair colors, it could be dyed. Even so, given that the characters of ''Chaos;Child'' have brightly coloured hair, and given that that series takes place in the same universe as ''Steins;Gate'', it is possible that pink could well be Faris' natural hair colour (maybe).
**Given that her hair and eyebrows are the same colour, this lends more credence to a natural hair colour rather than dyed.
Line 371 ⟶ 374:
*[[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 identity for a bit by hiding her face and putting a filter over her voice, but when she enters Kurisu's hotel room to give her cryptic advice, the film makes little effort to hide her, thanks to her familiar braids, and Cherami Leigh's natural voice.
*[[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 can still be adorable at times.
*[[Death Glare]]: Shoots one at Kurisu every time their eyes meet during the first half of the anime.
Line 407 ⟶ 410:
'''Voiced by:''' [[Masaki Terasoma]] (JP), Christopher Sabat (EN)
 
A CRT-TV store owner, and Rintaro's landlord. {{spoiler|He is secretly working for SERN, sending orders to Moeka and her group}}. He is fascinated with old CRT televisions and is very protective over his 11-year-old daughter, Nae. He is quite fond of Okabe and his friends despite the former's absurbabsurd delusions.
