Okay episode 12-22 was absolutely one insane plot twist after the next, and I've just finished the episode where the cancel the Dmail for kurasi so I'm wondering what way should watch the rest of the series?















Episode 23-25, 23 OVA then Stein Gate 0 or should I go straight to stein gate 0, people say it ruins the experience if you do both orders.

This one can ruins your experience , as you try to modify the order of the story to get it "chronological" (Spoiler : It is not).
Just ignore the weird peoples who does that and watch it normally. (It's as if they were saying you to start One Piece with the flashback of Roger...)

It is , Steins;Gate 0 is simply a bonus made for those who loved the original story and wanted a little bit more of the characters , nothing more.
If you liked the original , you can watch 0 , it have good sad vibes and some incredible scenes.
Unfortunately , it doesn't lives up to the original.

Hell no, release order is the way to go for first timer, it's how the author intended it to be. Chronological order is best for rewatch in case you miss anything and catch up more intrinsic detail. Also, watching chronological order would cause the twist to be less interesting and ruin the experience

Please just watch in the release order. You should never experience a story in a haphazard way. Everyone telling you the other order is wrong because that "chronological" order isn't even chronological.

Finish the main show, watch the ova, movie, side stuff (if you want) and then go with 23beta and Zero.

I know there'll be people who say the release order (i.e., completing the original series and then watching 0) and I understand their POV because I follow that for all other shows too.
I even watched Steins;Gate myself that way. Which is why I realised that I might've enjoyed a lot more if I watched the chronological way.

IMO, watch 23ß, Steins;Gate 0, Original 23, 24, 25... like this. (the chronological order)

I'll tell you why-
Episode 24, 25 gives you a proper complete closure to the story while Steins;Gate 0 is basically a longass explanation of the events that happened in a different worldline which in turn lead to the ending.
After watching 24-25, reaching the end of the whole story, I personally didn't like going back to all that sad stuff again, when I already knew what the end will be like.


Well, here's the logic without spoiling major plot points. Now, I think you can decide for yourself which path you wanna follow.

Release order is the best way. There is a twist in episode 23 that is explained in 0, which is why some people recommend watching 0 first but believe me is better finishing Steins;Gate first and then seeing 0, it makes 0 a much better experience. 0 hits way harder when you have watched how the original show ends.

Watch the rest of Steins;Gate to keep the momentum and the intended order. There’s arguments over this but I think the ‘chronological’ order is really stupid because it kills all of the perfectly crafted tension

That's kinda what you are doing by watching it in "chronological order".
Do you realize the entirety of Steins;Gate 0 happens before the start of the original ?

And why do you even want to decomplexify a story ?
By watching something in chronological order , you ruin all the mysteries/suspense/tension the Author tries to install.
I believe you didn't watched Gintama , Fullmetal Alchemist or Shingeki no Kyojin in a chronological order , so why would you do it for Steins;Gate ?

Ah , so you didn't even understood the series , like 99% of those who followed the "chronological order"...
Steins;Gate 0 happens before the original , as Okabe create the crypted message in the final episode , to send it to the himself of episode 1 of the original.

You do not need to be watching a Sci-fi series with time travel to make a chronological order...
Flashback are , in a sense , a time travel for the viewer's point of view , and thus can be used to alter the order.
You were talking about decomplexifing a story , but wouldn't Shingeki no Kyojin makes way more sense if you watched the basement reveal before even starting the series ?

I'm at the point where people that suggest this objectively wrong watch are just stupid. I do mean objective too. There is so many people proving this order to be 100% wrong in so many ways. Ruins the story, pacing, not actually chronological order (and even if it was its a time travel anime like bro this is hilarious)
. Like I can go on and on. Stop telling people to watch this fan made watch order. You can only view this series once for the first time. If they don't like it then that's fine but that's how the writer intended it to be views.
