Steins;Gate - Review

Arguably the best anime of 2011, even surpassing Madoka, in my opinion. I wholeheartedly believe Steins;Gate is able to appeal to audiences of virtually all preferences. The successful incorporation of the many entertaining and captivating elements is clearly what allows this show to rise above the rest. All in all, Steins;gate is a true example of a visual novel adaption done right.

Steins;Gate - Preview

With all the hype going around about Steins;Gate (shortened to S;G) being the best anime of 2011, it would be impossible for me, as a dedicated anime watcher, to take a pass on the show. Although I'm not really into sci-fi and psychological anime, I have a feeling that S;G is going to change my thoughts on that. To be honest, I have my expectations set high for the show. Seeing the massive amount of praise it's getting will definitely make one wonder just exactly what's so good about it. I, for one, am interested in finding out. And so, another "must-watch" anime has been put onto my "Plan to Watch" list (first one was Mahou Shoujo Madoka★Magica). Will it end up on par with Madoka? Better? Or will it fail miserably?
