Steins Gate 0 has a fantastic story on par on the level of the original Steins Gate, but the action scenes are a mess. For me the original Steins Gate is a 10/10 and Steins Gate 0 is a 8/10.

It makes the original more complete and more satisfying to watch I'd say; if those action scenes were done more properly I'd given it a 9/10.

0 is great for me. It’s not in the same level as the original, but honestly I think 0 is quite overhated.

S;G is indeed my favourite anime.
S;G 0 does have some flaws, but I still loved it. It's not as good as the original, but I consider it part of the full story of Steins;Gate. It's like an untold side story which connects with the ending of the original series.
The problem is people compare it way too much with the original & end up being disappointed.
It gets a lot of hate only because it's not on the level of the original.
I believe they did their best to adapt a very complexly structured VN.
I also felt it to be similar to Code Geass R2(just my opinion). A very promising start, then some hiccups in the middle but wrapped up the ending really well. Even if I knew how 0 would end, I thought they did a fantastic job in episode 23 of 0.
I personally gave S;G0 a 9/10. Maybe, I'm a bit biased but it was worth watching.

I love Steins;Gate (the OG series) so much...it's one of my favorite anime of all time

But S;G 0 was a letdown to me...i mean it was great (sometimes) but the rest of the series was a BIG disappointment

Dont get me wrong , i still LIKED the series personally (not that much but you can check my score for S;G 0) but it's definitely not worth it

P/s : the only "Wow" moment for me was the rebirth of Huoioin Kyouma lmao

In my opinion, I liked Steins;Gate 0 a bit more than the original Steins;Gate. I definitely understand the hate but despite the flaws regarding the action scenes, the story and plot was more impactful than the original and Rintaro’s character throughout 0 is also one of the main reasons I found it so thrilling to watch. Still, both of them are amazing

Bad things about 0:
1. No Kyouma/Christina
2. & bcoz of number 1, it lacks comedy.
3. Action scenes doesnt suit the show at all.
4. Kagari
5. Horrible Pacing
6. Amadeus didnt do much on the plot.
7. Forgettable Villain

Strengths of 0:
1. Strong Start
2. Episode 8
3. Kyouma's Awakening
4. Good OST

Still prefer the journey to 1.048596 rather than the beta worldline.

0 is just not that good compared to the original.

S;G0, is basically a show with a lot of highs and a few lows that cannot be overlooked. If you really love the characters and can put up with the new, and quite frankly shitty characters and a plot that revolves around a plot twist ( that professor being the villain) than,hell I envy you. Even though this is a world line where kirisu is dead I still feel like it’s a slap in the face to have Amadeus, even though I thought she was cute it was just an excuse to put her in and to force us to look at okabes trauma. However there are some really good god damn scenes in the show, like okabe meeting real kirisu again, saving mayuri and suzuya, and the return of kyouma.
In the end, the loli scientist they got to replace kirisu was cute 9/10

I totally love Steins;Gate with passion (my best anime!) but I totally dislike Steins;Gate 0 with passion as well.

Steins;Gate 0 was simply bad and boring, I did like around 5 episodes and totally loved episode 8 but as a whole, Steins;Gate 0 was simply bad.

To me Steins;Gate is a dark/mature anime (at least on the 2nd half) and this is my type of anime.

To me Steins;Gate 0 was a boring, childish anime and has a lot of dumb shit that I never expected to see from Steins;Gate like that garbage Kagari character with her boring, cringey, dumb "Mommy" lines and her super-powers which is dumb as hell for this type of anime. Really childish shit that Steins;Gate 0 had, goddamn. Is this Steins;Gate or a shounen anime? LEAVE THE SHOUNEN SHIT OUT OF STEINS;GATE, this really pissed me off.

And of course, Leskinen was boring, dumb and cringey as well with that dumb Engrish which got old pretty fast, that's one mediocre villain which I disliked as well.

It doesn't stop here, Steins;Gate 0 has more dumb shit that I disliked but I will stop here, you get the idea on how much I disliked Steins;Gate 0 and I'm a Steins;Gate fan.

Steins;Gate = 10/10
Steins;Gate 0 = 5/10

Because i believe it's different than what people would expect from the original series as it's continuation, but i absolutely love both of them. Especially, seeing the heavily PTSD-struck depressed Okabe, and his growth, is absolutely fantastic, i will never understand how people just gloss over the PTSD part and say ''bUt iTs jUsT dEpReSsIvE''
You might not like it, sure, maybe it's not better than the original for you, sure, but for the love of god no one should ever say dumb shit like that

Steins;Gate is a very close 2nd favorite anime of all time, however I thought Steins;Gate 0 was a huge dropoff from Steins;Gate without Kurisu being an actual being for the entire series.

Steins;Gate Rating: 10

Steins;Gate 0 Rating: 6

(dang i didn't know it was a 4 score difference dropoff)

Don't worry, Steins;Gate 0 actually made Steins;Gate an even better anime for me because Steins;Gate 0 was so fucking mediocre that I ended up loving Steins;Gate even more.

So there's that, at least that shitty Steins;Gate 0 was good for something I guess...

Actually for me, Steins;Gate 0 really did made Steins;Gate even better for me too not because it is bad or something but it made me love Okabe Rintarou and Hououin Kyouma even more (And yes, I know they are the same person). Even if the tone of the series is different, the only character that carries the series is Hououin Kyouma itself because of his epicness towards the last few episodes and the ending for me surpasses Code Geass R2's ending.

But if Steins;Gate 0 really is well done in terms of the darker atmosphere, story, foreshadowing, revelations, less fanservice, and pacing, it could potentially become a better series compared to the original Steins;Gate for me especially if they tackled how Okabe really got the Reading Steiner (I am not satisfied to "He got it when he is born" or something).

I mean Steins;Gate 0 really did have a lot of qualities that could surpass the original because it has better drama, more epic, better character development (The original Steins;Gate only develops Okabe's character), and better OST. One of the examples are such as the episode 1's tone, Red haired girl knowing who her mom is, the farewell in ep 8, king of "Shaman Girls" revelation, reawakening of the phoenix, Okabe's plan, timeskip to the future, and the ending scene.

To conclude this, I would say that if you finish Steins;Gate 0 and rewatch the original Steins;Gate, it will have a lot of impact but it depends on you if you want to watch Steins;Gate 0 or not because for me, the story really ended in the original Steins;Gate and Steins;Gate 0 only have connections about Kurisu's death, ending scene of episode 22 (If I am not wrong, that is about Kurisu and Okabe right?) and the whole Episode 23 of Steins;Gate.

With Steins;Gate being my favorite anime, I think that 0 is just as good as the original. It honestly interested me more than the original, since I went into the original with not very high expectations, I was pretty going in blind. I love the extra characters and how the antagonist wasn’t “the world” in S;G 0. The only things that I had a bit of a problem with was how confusing the beginning was, considering I was an anime only when I watched both, and the fact that Kurisu shows up about twice. But that’s to be expected, considering the premise of the sequel. Anyway, those were my thoughts on it

I enjoyed the anime of Steins;Gate 0, but keep in mind that it works much better as a complement to its VN, rather than as a standalone. The anime is basically the final route, which is a mix of the various routes of the VN and thus would have been redundant in it.

For example, Fubuki's and Reyes' plot lines don't make much sense without reading the VN.

Actually, on my first watch of Steins;Gate 0, it really does made me interested more in Steins;Gate 0 than the original Steins;Gate when I finished it which made me ask a question to myself before "How is Steins;Gate 0 lower in rankings than the original Steins;Gate by a mile? It definitely is better!" but after 2 or 3 rewatch, I have noticed more and more foreshadowing of the original Steins;Gate and its tone or atmosphere is better in Steins;Gate and that it is lacking in Steins;Gate 0 that is why I can say that Steins;Gate is better than Steins;Gate 0.

Also, to distinguish Steins;Gate and Steins;Gate 0, I recognized this.

Okabe Rintarou will carry Steins;Gate to have its darker and depressing tones (Let's admit, Hououin Kyouma at the beginning is annoying from the first watch right?)

Hououin Kyouma will carry Steins;Gate 0 to have its epicness or badass tones (Let's admit, we are wanting to see Hououin Kyouma because Okabe is boring but understandable right?)

Btw, I love the English Dub more than the Japanese Dub but it is equally great. I even do copy Okabe's voice in English Dub because he sounds so great HAHAHA.

I'm a Steins;Gate fan and I believe it's the best anime in the freaking world, nothing comes close to it.

But... Steins;Gate 0 was utter garbage and what happened in episode 17 & 18 completely killed that mediocre anime for me and made it even more garbage. I did love episode 8 & 19 though, episode 21 was pretty nice too but still, Steins;Gate 0 was utter garbage.

Kagari, Leskinen and Judy Reyes shouldn't have existed in the anime, those characters were garbage and Kagari doing kung-fu and chopping heads off was really retarded, no to mention she was basically moving faster than the speed of sound to be able to dodge bullets from all angles in the middle of the warzone, what type of garbage is this? man... how could they mess Steins;Gate 0 with kiddy shit like that? Leskinen was pretty much garbage too and Judy Reyes was non-existent.

So many things went wrong in Steins;Gate 0, what a let down.

I think most of us really loved the original series and wanted to see what would happen afterwards, so a lot of us watch Steins:Gate 0. It wasn't necessary as good as the first series, but it was worth the watch tbh.
