| So I plan to watch Steins gate but I'm confused on the order to watch. Also, should I watch the movies or are they not canon? |
 |
| Just watch Steins;Gate, and if you like the characters, go onto Steins Gate 0 after watching a special episode called 23B-Missing Link. There's a non canon movie you can go for after you're done with the series but it fucks up the science. Watch it if you like the female protagonist. |
| I suggest watching it by release order cause it kinda gives you good understanding of the plot at the end of steins gate 0 that will make you love the series Steins gate -> dejavu -> the alternative 23 episode ( missing link) -> steins gate 0 |

Is is an alternate scenario that was made like 7 years after the original series. Some people will tell you to watch this before the orignal's finale, but don't. They are meant to be watched as individual stories. The difference is that the original is more focused on the science and thrill, but 0 is more character driven. There's no point watching 0 if you don't like the characters. Make up your mind after you finish the orignal. |
| Steins;Gate > OVA 23b Missing Link > Steins;Gate 0 The Movie is not Canon, but it's good! Watch it after S;G or after Zero. |

Steins;Gate 0 is a spin-off to Steins;Gate by defintion, and it's a side entry in the Science Adventure series. |

| watch steins gate first, episode 1 |
| Steins:Gate -> Steins;Gate OVA (ep. 25 : Egoistic Poriomania) -> Episode 23 β (Open the Missing Link) -> Steins;Gate 0. You can watch the movie after finishing Steins;Gate or Steins;Gate 0, it's a good movie but it's not canon. Also, don't stop watching Steins;Gate in episode 23 as some people are saying, you should watch all the first anime before start watching Steins;Gate 0 |

That's the whole reason for its existence. It is most definitely an alternative scenario/timeline. Don't club it in the science adventure series. |

But yeah the story is far more hard hitting in the second half. |
lauren_hall said: yup, it's when the story really starts, the first half was a build up rafasc33 said: ya i’m on ep 9 and dropped it for a while bc it got really boring for me should i try getting to ep 12??It was always good, but it gets perfect in episode 12 |
| DEFINITELY RELEASE ORDER YOU WILL POSSIBLY RUIN YOUR ENJOYMENT OF THE SERIES IF YOU WATCH IT IN THIS STUPID CHRONOLOGICAL ORDER PEOPLE ARE SUGGESTING, IT KIND OF RUINED THE SERIES FOR ME tbh. |
| This anime shit is addictive |

Strictly speaking in terms of the anime, 0 is still a spin off, and a side entry to Steins;Gate by definition. It expands on a crucial plot point of the original, this is the very definition of spin offs. And it's not an alternative scenario. Alternative means that you can choose between things, but here you can't choose. 0 is canon, and the events of 0 are the reason that the ending of the original is possible. Hence it's not an alternative choice. And it's hard to strictly speak in terms of anime, when 0 anime is actually a sequel to 0 VN, not the adaptation of it. |

Do not under any circumstances interrupt Steins;Gate with Steins;Gate 0. It's the worst possible advice to be given, and you're only getting it because people are too dim to understand how sequels work. The order you'll want is by release, like so:
Obviously if you want more and in greater detail read the original Visual Novels. The movie isn't canon but it's worth watching anyway, whilst the specials are just random short collaborations, they're not necessary unless you want to complete every single entry. Strictly speaking, 23β and onwards are also optional, since they're not crucial to Steins;Gate, so you may finish after just the original series if need be. |
| Well I for one already loved Lain. |
