So the last of the shows from this season are starting to come to a close now. Got to say, Steins;Gate has proven itself to be most definately the show of the year for me so far - really enjoyed it. A lot of character building there at first, but much like Persona: Trinity Soul, the latter half of the show was fantastic. A solid 9/10 from me, and very close to taking a 10/10 outright.
They've also had a movie announced, which I'm now really looking forward to. I didn't realise it was popular enough in Japan as to warrant one, but I'm glad it is. The show definately deserves the following it seems to have.
Season recommends?

Tuturu!
Well Steins;Gate turned out much better than expected.
For the first half of the show I'd have given it an 8 but the latter half just got better and better as it progressed and it was because of all that character development building up that made those later arcs more effective. The last handful of episodes were amazingly well done, so good in fact that the finale, whilst still brilliant, didn't quite match up for me. Overall though I still decided to give it a 10 as (not counting the shows I marathon) it was one of the best shows I've watched this year. The majority of viewers have also rated it a 10 (39%) or a 9 (27%) so if you didn't pick it up last season it's definitely one to go back to.
Hope the movie is a continuation.
