Sample Premise.

A group of friends creates a machine capable of sending messages across time, and cause ripples through the past and present.

How would I describe this show in one word?

Sample word.

Note Finished this two days back but I wasn’t free enough to review it. Steins Gate is the story of a mad scientist and his team's time traveling adventure to defeat a hideous organization that’ll control the world in the future *yawn*.

Review The series starts off pretty slow. It’s like a messed up puzzle right from episode one and the audience is left scratching their heads. It soon gains pace and with each episode, a part of the puzzle is solved until it's complete by the end of the series and everything starts to make sense. But that doesn’t mean this show is devoid of loopholes and room for further doubts, I believe they might answer some of them in "Steins Gate O". lt’s got a decent screenplay and script, the animation feels vague and blurry, plus its really confusing sometimes. The highlight of this show is probably the kawaii and innocent - Mayushii (tuturu <3).

Now I wouldn’t recommend this to anyone who’s new to anime cause I regret watching it *sniff sniff*, not that it’s terrible, simply because there were better shows to watch before this. Nevertheless, if you’re enthusiastic about time traveling, obnoxious science jargons and kawaii characters, this just might be the show for you. I'd give it… RATING: 7.5/10
