Rintaro Okabe (Japanese: 岡部 倫太郎, Hepburn: Okabe Rintarō) is a fictional character and the protagonist of the visual novel game Steins;Gate (2009), developed by 5pb. and Nitroplus and part of the Science Adventure series. Okabe is a self-proclaimed mad scientist who often goes by the pseudonym Kyouma Hououin (Japanese: 鳳凰院 凶真, Hepburn: Hōōin Kyōma). He is also nicknamed and referred to as Okarin by his friends Shiina Mayuri and Itaru "Daru" Hashida. He is the founder of what he calls the "Future Gadget Laboratory" in Akihabara, where he spends most of his time and has dubbed himself Lab Member No. 001. As he experiments with time travel, he learns that he is the only one who possesses the ability to determine changes between different timelines, which he dubs "Reading Steiner". He is 18 years old and a first-year student at Tokyo Denki University. Okabe is voiced by Mamoru Miyano in Japanese and J. Michael Tatum in English. Okabe has received a positive critical reception due to his character traits and development, along with his darker characterization in Steins;Gate 0. In 2011, Rintaro Okabe won the 1st Newtype Anime Awards for the Best Male anime character of the year.
