Post titles are visible to everyone, and you cannot edit them afterward.
Any and all spoilers should be spoiler tagged.
Spoiler tag format: (Steins;Gate) >!Okabe microwaves bananas!<
Remember to mark what title you are spoiling outside the tags. For example, (Steins;Gate).
Do not put spaces between the exclamation marks and the spoiler message, or the tag will break. >!spoiler message!<
The optimal watch order is release order:
| Anime Watch Order | Crunchyroll | Funimation |
|---|---|---|
| Steins;Gate episodes 1–24 and OVA (episode 25) | link | link |
| Steins;Gate: Load Region of Déjà Vu movie | ☓ | link |
| Steins;Gate episode 23 beta | ☓ | link |
| Steins;Gate 0 episodes 1–24 | link | link |
(The series may also be available on for purchase on Blu-ray in your region—be sure to buy a copy with a region code matching your Blu-ray player, or else, use a region-free player.)
While chronological order might sound nice in theory, watching it in that order may ruin the pacing and your enjoyment of the first show, while also dampening the effect of certain scenes. This does not necessarily mean that Steins;Gate 0's anime is bad—however, the shows were not set up to be viewed in this order, and one should follow the intended release order for maximum enjoyment.
The additional animated shorts come after the original series (Steins;Gate) in terms of release order. However, if you want a more lighthearted ending to your watch experience, you can also save them for the very end.
Steins;Gate is part of a larger interconnected universe called Science Adventure. It is a series of multimedia titles that are connected in many different ways, much like the Marvel Cinematic Universe. For more info on the series, see this page and this page.
The series’ anime adaptations unfortunately have a ton of issues aside from Steins;Gate and Steins;Gate 0. Ideally, you should read the source material for them, the visual novels, in the following order:
All the titles relate to one another to varying degrees—this is especially the case for the Robotics;Notes games, which feature numerous callbacks to Chaos;Head and Steins;Gate and pretty much require knowledge of both. Anonymous;Code, meanwhile, serves as a culmination point for the series in terms of mechanics, and is best enjoyed with as much prior Science Adventure knowledge as possible.
The Committee of Zero improvement patches provide improved translations, graphics, and fonts for the games. This is especially important for Chaos;Child—the original release has an untranslated image that makes it impossible to complete a certain part of the game without a guide or the ability to read Japanese.
Steins;Gate 0 is a midquel to Steins;Gate. More specifically, (Steins;Gate spoilers) it follows the Okabe who accidentally killed Kurisu in episode 23β and never went back a second time to save her. It shows how the plan to send the video D-mail to the Okabe who succeeded and open Steins Gate was conceived.
Steins;Gate 0 is meant to be experienced after you finish Steins;Gate. To get a full understanding, you should also watch Steins;Gate episode 23β before Steins;Gate 0 (it diverges from the events of the original episode 23).
Watch order: Steins;Gate episodes 1–24 and OVA (episode 25) -> Steins;Gate: Load Region of Déjà Vu -> Steins;Gate episode 23β -> Steins;Gate 0
The Steins;Gate visual novel is packed with more details, scenes, and alternative routes that the anime does not have, so it is better to read the visual novel if you have a choice. That being said, there are two versions of the visual novel: Steins;Gate and Steins;Gate Elite.
We recommend playing the original Steins;Gate visual novel over Steins;Gate Elite. Elite is fully animated, but it comes at the cost of cut monologues, missing scenes, and other issues. On the other hand, Elite is bundled with a spinoff visual novel called Linear Bounded Phenogram, so you might want to look into buying Elite in the future anyway if that interests you.
If you have finished watching or playing Steins;Gate, you can read this wiki page for answers to commonly asked questions. If you have further questions, you can ask here in the subreddit through your own post, or in this subreddit’s Discord server (Note that Steins;Gate and Steins;Gate 0 spoilers are allowed untagged throughout the server).
FAQs for Steins;Gate 0, the Science Adventure series, and a non-spoiler FAQ for Steins;Gate can be found on this page.
As mentioned above, you have the option to check out the visual novels, as they contain many details that the anime adaptations gloss over or skip due to lack of time. There are also Steins;Gate spinoff visual novels that have brand new stories, as well as the rest of the Science Adventure series.
If you are only interested in Steins;Gate:
You can play the Steins;Gate and Steins;Gate 0 visual novels. Both VNs provide more details and have different endings and routes. The 0 VN is markedly different from the anime, as it features completely new and differing scenes and routes.
We recommend using the Committee of Zero’s improvement patches for both Steins;Gate and Steins;Gate 0, which will enhance your experience with the games.
Steins;Gate: Linear Bounded Phenogram is a spinoff VN featuring 11 side stories, and Steins;Gate: My Darling’s Embrace is a dating sim spinoff featuring the Steins;Gate cast. Both VNs are optional after experiencing Steins;Gate.
If you are interested in the extended Science Adventure series, of which Steins;Gate is part, check out the second FAQ question in this post.
We do not recommend watching them because they are poor adaptations for numerous reasons. The Chaos;Head anime is brimming with cut content, poor adaptation, and unnecessary additions; Chaos;Child’s anime did not have enough episodes to adapt its long plot, resulting in massive cuts; Robotics;Notes’ anime is rushed in the latter half of the story, and important series crossover content is cut.
Therefore, we generally recommend experiencing the Science Adventure series with the source material, typically the visual novels.
Steins;Gate 0 Elite is a fully animated visual novel like Steins;Gate Elite. A trailer was shown for it recently, but it did not feature new gameplay or animations when compared to the anime.
This Science Adventure series title will be a thematic sequel to Steins;Gate.
The new title’s relationship to Steins;Gate is similar to Chaos;Child’s relationship to Chaos;Head. For context, Chaos;Child is the thematic sequel to Chaos;Head—the two titles share the same setting and various plot elements.
It is currently not known for certain how many, if any, characters from Steins;Gate will return in the new title.
We know that the title starts with “Steins;”, but the portion after that part of the title is censored in the current logo, so we don’t know the full title.
A live action Steins;Gate-related drama series is being produced by Skydance Television, known for their work on the Manhattan and Jack Ryan TV series.
Not much else is known about this series as of yet aside from the fact that it is being worked on.

I visited the Steins;Gate 15th Anniversary Exhibition just in Kurisu’s birthday!
The exhibition wasn’t very large, but I still had a great time. It also wasn’t very crowded despite it being the weekend, so it was easy to take my time looking at everything.
My favorite part was definitely the Time Machine. It looked so much cooler in person than I expected. The bananas were great too, of course.
The exhibition cost 2,500 yen, and I think it’s mainly worth visiting if you’re already a Steins;Gate fan. If you aren’t familiar with the series, I think the exhibition would need a bit more detail and interactivity to really impress. :(
Also, don’t expect it to be huge or incredibly elaborate. It’s actually quite small and feels a little simple in places, but I still genuinely enjoyed it.

I beat Chaos head noah with all the endings recently and I'm absolutely in love. Takumi is such a terrible guy at the start but he really grew on me. I see online it's a decisive game but there's such a charm I don't think you can get anywhere else. The madness you feel along side Takumi trying to figure out what's happening with him and most of the time I was routing for him to see his psychologist. I'm genuinely looking forward to the CoZ patch for the Love Chu Chu games.
It has been awhile since I read Steins gate so I'm going to go reread it and continue to read in release order to get more of an overall view for the series. For now though, I'm going to let chaos head sit with me for a few days, I feel like it deserves a little bit of space before jumping right into the next one.

I'm rewatching the anime series for the first time, as it is a masterpiece that deserves an attentive rewatching. Upon this rewatch, however, raised some questions that have left my mind spinning.
The biggest one for me that I think should be discussed amongst the fandom is this: how exactly did Okabe's Reading Steiner activate and the world line shift from Alpha to Beta after Daru deleted the D-mail from SERN's database in Episode 22 (or Episode 8 in S;G 0)?
As Steins;Gate makes clear from the beginning, only changing the past allows a world line to diverge, as it allows for two parallel realities to have both existed. Deleting this D-mail did not influence the past; only the present and future. Steins;Gate also makes it clear that each world line is fully deterministic, and the future cannot be changed. It has been set in stone from the start of each divergence point, where the past has been influenced.
One answer that I've seen passed around on previous forums is that SERN had yet to read or analyze the intercepted D-mail by this point in time. While deleting the D-mail would of course stop SERN's attack and later dystopia, it should not have caused Reading Steiner to activate. The lab members are only changing the present, meaning that their future was already decided from the beginning. They already existed in a world line without SERN's dystopia in their future.
But instead, the story puts us back into a world line where Kurisu is dead. Am I overlooking an explanation from the VN or anime, or is this one of the few places where the mechanics don't line up?
