SHOW REVIEW - STEINS;GATE

thank you galack for showing me this show :)

i've never actually watched an anime show all the way through, and while this did have the weird perversions i was worried about in a couple episodes in the first half, i don't think it was crazy bad. although those incidents did completely ruin what i thought were great episodes anyway.

but despite all of that, i loved this!! i love how tight the script is around its core concept, how fully they explored it and its ramifications, how the entire show is structured like a palindrome that loops in on itself, and apart from that daru guys, i loved most of the characters too!! daru should die. so sad that he doesnt

overall loved it

9/10

@aenthology interesting. Reading lots of positive reviews on this but when I tried it just didn't click with me and I stopped watching after a few episodes.

Which is odd, because that should be right up my alley.

@bekopharm the beginning is very slow which i've seen people complain about before. i think they could have sped up the season but it was useful to get attached to the characters and necessary for how the show is structured

but it definitely becomes incredible from episode 12 onwards, so the second half is where it shines and where it justifies how slow the first half was

up to you if you wanna give it a go but i'd recommend it!!
