"We just finished the depressed version of SG and everyone wishes for a 24th episode, what shall we do?"

"I know what to do! Let's give them an empty and silly Valentine's Day episode!"

Yikes..

Story: There is not much to say about the story, it is Valentine's day and every goddamn girl, who played a role throughout the series, decided to join the fiesta.
It felt boring, empty and the jokes were so bad that I wanted to cry.
Hell, they even lewded our innocent cinnamon roll Mayuri.
The only good thing about the OVA are Hiyajo's and [Kurisu's] interactions, especially the last scene had at least some significance to it.
I had high expectations, but those were shattered beyond repair.

Art and Sound: The art looked good, was consistent and we got a "funny" shot of Faris but to be honest, this level of art was expected and is nothing special.
The sound was not special, but I guess that it fits the tone of the story.
Sadly, they used the wrong opening/ending, the first opening and the second ending, which is nothing but a minor error, but really shows me how little work went into this OVA.

Enjoyment: There really was none, except seeing my favourite characters and the post-ending scene.

The whole idea of a silly Valentine's day episode instead of a real sequel is probably the worst possible choice and is not understandable for me.
It hurts to say it, but this is as bad as Steins;Gate gets and what makes it even worse is the fact that this is probably the last bit of Steins;Gate we will ever get.
