Genre: Everything that Irina Loves Episodes:23 Studio: White Fox It’s amazing how quickly something can seep into your normal. You repeat the same actions under the same circumstances a few times and just like that, it’s a ritual. Comforting and familiar. You miss it when it’s not around. Before you can even notice, it’s a little…
Have you guys noticed that Steins:Gate breaks down into mini thematic arcs through episode titles. Right now we’re in the middle of a renaissance. “Renaissance are usually considered to include intensified classical scholarship, scientific and geographical discovery, a sense of individual human potentialities, and the assertion of the active and secular over the religious and contemplative life“ Well doesn’t that sound promising!
Guys I need to go back in time! Just one week. That’s reasonable… Man. I knew this would happen. I knew the second I used my precious once and future title, Hououin would come back. This week was the time to use it. I’m beginning to think I’m title cursed. But hey, Steins;Gate 0 and…
Do you guys remember what I said two weeks ago? Do you? I asked if the time leap machine could leap forward? I really did!!??!! Are you starting to get a little freaked out?
Genre : Comedy, slice of life, magical girl, supernatural, action, drama, Episodes: 12 Studio: Feel The world is a though place. It can be very hard to eke out a decent living. These are strange and troubled times we live in when a nice hardworking Yakuza can’t even sit back and enjoy his vases…
You know what I hate… I hate having the feeling that I’m the smartest guy in the room (thankfully I don’t have to deal with that too often). Seriously though, it’s not that I want to feel dumb but having it all figured out is dull and there’s no point if there’s nothing to learn….
Hello friends, I’m writing you from the past. It’s Thursday morning and despite my treats on twitter, I did not take a mental day off work. I always write my Steins;Gate 0 reviews this way. I watch the show on Wednesday evening, let it take hold of my mind overnight, turn that over until I…
Steins;Gate, Steins;Gate. Steins;Gate…. I thought we had an understanding. I thought we agreed you would stop ending on those shock scenes and taking over my entire mind until the next episode. I thought we got the emotional stuff out of the way. We were just going to do some nice convoluted time hopping adventurin’ and…
Genre : Action, Sci Fi, comedy, drama Episodes: 25 Studio: Lerche The students of class 3-E are running out of time. They only have a few short months left to get their grades up enough to graduate, figure out what they want to do with the rest of their lives, get their stuff in order…
Well wasn’t this dramatic? If you’ve been around for a while, you may have picked up on the fact that I have no patience for melodrama. I can enjoy a good emotional release but it has to be measured and logical. Demonstrative angst is not my thing. This is generally why I prefer the visual…
I knew it! I knew I could predict the future! Kinda, sorta, if you squint…. Maybe time leap machines are really quite common but no one has Reading Steiner? I’m just seeing echoes of a future past? I should reuse that line, it’s completely wasted in this silly preamble.
Time has always been a very fluid construct in fiction. Once you’re no longer bound by time, it can become suddenly very difficult to keep linear timelines straight! This week Steins;Gate 0 yet again played with time and just a little with our minds. Although only two weeks have actually gone by since the last…
Genre : Action, Sci Fi, comedy Episodes: 22 + OVA Studio: Lerche Any good teacher knows that what a remedial student really needs to succeed is the proper motivation. And what better motivation could there be then saving the world! Granted, to do so those students are going to have to assassinate a near invulnerable genetically engineered…
You know it just wouldn’t be Steins;Gate if someone didn’t loose it. In fact, I’m pretty surprised at how well everyone’s been keeping it together so far. However, now that Kagari has regained some of her childhood memories, she seems adamant to regress right back to said childhood. And why not, she’s earned her breakdown….
We’re back with our 3rd instalment of completely making a mess out of Steins;Gate’s lore. You guys are lucky that Arthifis is around to keep me on track. I had this whole thing about umbrellas and penguins… Just for a bit of context – we ended last post with me ging on a long rambling…
