Rintaro and Kurisu are basically the two most "complete" characters of the show - moreover, complete with a different public and private behaviours
they don't feel as "animeish" (stereotyped) as - say Feiris, or... "niche" as Mayuri or Moeka. it's only natural to feel simpalthy for them. they're not just "the most likeable" or "the most accomplished"
they are "quite believable" for an anime. they alone would - indeed - suffice to justify a live adaptation.
