What to talk about Steins;Gate .

It's kind of hard to find words and say how much this masterpiece is part of my life. Steins;Gate is one of the best things I've ever seen and that made me interested in the Science Adventure Series, if you don't know what I'm talking about it is better to research the visual novels that make up a series! For those who don't know, Steins;Gate is an adaptation of Visual Novel and it was the only one in the series that had a good adaptation and that gets to be better than the original.

The story tells of the self-proclaimed mad scientist Okabe Rintarou who lives in a small room in Akihabara, where he invents "devices of the future" with fellow laboratory members Shiina Mayuri, his childhood friend with an airhead, and Hashida Itaru, a hacker otaku. The three spend their time tinkering with their latest creation, a "Microwave Telephone" that can be controlled by text messages. Lab members soon face a series of mysterious incidents that lead to a revolutionary discovery: Phone Microwave can send emails to the past and thus change history. Adapted from the critically acclaimed visual novel by 5bps. and Nitroplus, Steins;Gate takes Okabe to the depths of scientific theory and human despair as he faces the dire consequences of changing the past.

The way the story is told is the highlight of Steins;Gate, the beginning can be a little slow and confusing, which drives many people away. But after you finish the anime, thank the beginning for being that way, because if they changed, the story would lose its essence.

The first part of the anime is an introduction, and things start to get interesting after episode 12, which I believe is one of Steins;Gate's biggest points. It is at that moment that we really realized that the anime only made you become more attached to the characters and then destroy you completely.

I can't get enough of saying that Steins;Gate has such a well-written story, and the management manages to capture the essence of each situation perfectly. Steins;Gate has a circular history, meaning the end connects with the beginning, and everything makes sense. No point in the anime, no scene, is there in vain. Everything has a purpose, so details are essential to understanding plots!

Another element is the SERN that appears so much in the work. In real life, CERN is a European Organization for Nuclear Research, being the largest particle physics laboratory in the world. And last and most importantly, John Titor, who was an Internet user in the 2000s and 2001s who claimed to be a time traveler in the year 2036. John's story is very intrinsic to Steins' story, that's why it is so important. Many events are based on what John Titor claimed at the time.

▪︎Soundtrack

Well, the soundtrack composed by Takeshi Abo is undoubtedly one of the great pillars of the series and of great importance in moments of tension. Gate of Steiner is one of the best things I have ever heard! Not to mention the exceptional work of Ito Kananko singing Hacking to the gate and Sky Clad no Kansokusha.

I'm just mentioning this plot cause is my favorite in the serie.

Suzuha's plot..

The episode 14 where it is revealed that Suzuha came from the year 2036 to save the world from SERN's domain, in my opinion is undoubtedly one of the best and most written things I have ever seen. When you think of John Titor it soon comes to mind that he would be a man in the anime, but it never crossed my mind that he would be Suzuha. Therefore, she used the name John Titor on the Internet forums for Okabe and the others to notice. It was she who made the time machine collide with Akihabara in 2010, just when the Microwave on the phone was being developed. This time machine, revealed to have been created by Daru, could only go back in time, but it could never go to the future. To find the IBN 5100, Suzuha decides to go back to 1975 and then bring it to Okabe to stop SERN. In deciding this, she would have to leave 2010 and could not return. Dedicated to her mission, she decides to go. A few hours after her departure, Okabe and the others receive a letter from her, written in 2000. She reveals that she was unable to recover her PC due to the malfunction of the time machine, causing her to lose her memory until the year. 2000.

The scene in Suzuha's letter is very painful and one of the saddest parts, seeing that all the good memories she made with the other members being erased is painful, but even more painful is to see how much Okabe gets more destroyed.
