Steins;Gate: Oukoubakko no Poriomania

Note: Make sure you watch the original series at the very least first before reading.

Great Ova episode to finish off Steins Gate. Now I'm watching the series in release order, I may regret it as people will say the way you watch the series affects your experience, but I rather go by how it was released, instead of some other order.

Now of course it's an ova so it's one episode, and very simple. They get invited to America to go watch a tournament for Faris' game. But they also get to visit Kurisu. It's nothing story heavy but rather an add-on to the overall ... relationship for the characters for the events that took place after Steins Gate. Nothing heart heavy that'll make you want to cry unless your crying tears of happiness lol.

Overall: Good ova to their storyline 9/10

This was a fun watch but unfortunately it isn't canon. As an OVA, it's nothing too crazy but gives decent closure to the series. I think Steins;Gate's strongest aspect is it's characters. You get a decent dose of them in this series. Make sure to watch steinsgate 0 before this and the movie. Steinsgate is more depressing than it seems but it truly is one of the best stories in anime.

The watch order is skewed so i'd recommend watch steinsgate all the way, watch divide by zero prequel to steinsgate 0. Then watch episodes 23 and 24 again, then watch the episode 25 OVA ... then the movie. 7/10

Nothing much other than an extra episode for Steins; Gate. It doesn't really add anything major to the world and is just there for like what happened after the end of the series. There is minor character exposition but otherwise there isn't anything else. We see some of the supporting characters again and the writing was solid.

The visuals are still high quality I didn't see any CG and the music is well done pretty much identical to the series. If you just simply want more Steins Gate then this is it but otherwise like I said before there is really nothing else.
