So, I was originally gonna make a topic just to discuss Steins;Gate 0, but I figured we'd might as well just have a topic dedicated to the Science-Adventure Series as a whole.

For those of you who don't know, the Science-Adventure Series is a very popular series of video games and anime adaptations made by the collaboration of 5pb and Nitroplus. The series currently has 5 main parts. In order of release: Chaos;Head, Steins;Gate, Robotics;Notes, Chaos;Child, and Steins;Gate 0. The series has struggled to gain the same level of popularity outside of Japan as in it, with its only two international successes being Chaos;Head and Steins;Gate. The series' biggest hit to-date is Steins;Gate, which I highly recommend. Only Steins;Gate and Robotics;Notes have had a US release. If you want to know more about each game, there are seriously entire wikis dedicated to each of them.

Steins;Gate 0 was released in Japan two months ago, and its anime adaptation is slated for the end of the year. Rumors of an official translation are floating around. Chaos;Child was recently confirmed to be coming to PC, and its arrival is set for April 28th. The Chaos;Child anime is in production, but will most likely air sometime after the Steins;Gate 0 anime.


I am so incredibly hyped for C;C and S;G 0, it makes me want to learn Japanese just to experience them as soon as possible. Has anyone seen the intro movie for Steins;Gate 0? Because it is amazing. Anyone have any predictions for Steins;Gate 0? I seriously hope they expand more on the overarching narrative of the series. Robotics;Notes contributed significantly to unifying each part, but still left many vital questions unanswered.

Anyone else here into this series, or is it just me?

I loved Steins Gate the first time. I didn't think that they'd go for a round two. Dr. Pepper FTW! XD

I really hope Steins;Gate 0 can live up to the hype. I haven't heard much about what the Japanese gaming community thinks of it, though.

I can't shake the feeling that the main character of Chaos;Child is somehow closely related to the main character of Chaos;Head, but I'm not sure how. Still, the fact that they both go by the nickname Taku sounds like it should mean something, right?

I just found out that 5pb and Nitroplus are making two more VNs for the series. They're called Occultic;Nine and Anonymous;Code. Anonymous;Code, in particular, sounds epic.

There's a trailer for Anonymous;Code: 

 

The characters kind of look weird, but the game does take place more than 20 years from now, so I guess that's what they think people will look like in the future.
