If you are a fan of Steins;Gate, Read on! If you have not heard of it or are interested in learning more, Read on! You will not regret it.
Before you start reading this, go to this link (http://www.listenonrepeat.com/watch/?v=WuvSzfaMXNI) and let it play while you read this. It will amplify the experience.
I am making this post to bring light to an anime that does not get enough appreciation, and as a discussion board for anyone who has already seen this amazing work of art... Steins;Gate. For anyone who has seen it, keep reading. You may learn something you didn't know. I'll make it easy and put a description here for anyone who hasn't seen it, so you can skip this next paragraph if you've already seen it.
Steins;Gate is about a self-proclaimed "mad scientist" and his friends who build gadgets and learn that the microwave that they tried controlling with a phone can actually send texts back in time. I am not going to give away any spoilers, but I will say that there are big consequences for messing with the natural flow of time. This anime starts out slow, but is still great enough to keep your interest. Around episode 6, things start to speed up and get interesting, but once you get to episode 12, you will not be able to stop watching. If you are into anime marathons, this is a great one. This anime is an emotional rollercoaster and will leave you wanting more. But don't be set back by that, because there is more! I have seen this anime 3 times and still want to watch it more.
As I stated before, there is more than just the 24 episodes in the anime. There is an OVA that should be watched right after the 24th episode, and then, a movie. The movie was just recently subbed, so don't be expecting a dub for at least another year. The movie is called Fuka Ryōiki no Déjà vu. I will add links for everything I mention here at the end.
There is tons of manga side stories for Steins;Gate (written by 5bp and Nitroplus). There is Bōkan no Rebellion, which is written from Suzuha's point of view but follows the basic storyline of the anime. There is Onshū no Braunian Motion, written from Tennōji's point of view. Shijō Saikyō no Slight Fever is written from Makise's point of view (I believe this one is not completed yet). Hiyoku Renri no Sweets Honey portrays a light-hearted side of the anime, more as a romance novel between Okarin and Kurisu (and I believe this one is meant to be comedic). And, last but most definitely not least, my personal favorite: Aishin Meizu no Babel. This one is also written from Kurisu's point of view, reflecting on her past. THIS ONE GIVES A LOT OF BACKSTORY ON HER RELATIONSHIP WITH HER FATHER AND EXPLAINS WHY SHE WAS SO SENSITIVE ABOUT HER SPECIAL SPOON! I loved this manga adaptation. It is a must-read.
There is a visual novel for PC, PS3, XBOX, PS Vita, Android, and iPhone. The visual novel provides a ton more of the story and has multiple different endings. The visual novel gives you over 30 hours of story! I do not believe the console versions have been ported in English, nor have the Android/ios versions. Although there is a patch for the Android/ios versions which will be linked at the end of this post. And there is two visual novels for the PS3 (/XBOX?).
While discussing this, please remember to use
so you don't give anything away to anyone who hasn't seen the anime.

Steins;Gate: Fuka Ryōiki no Déjà vu (movie):
I know that some people prefer certain websites for watching anime, and feel free to search for your own, but the link I have provided here is probably the best you will find. Considering this is a fairly new movie, at least for English Sub, it is hard to find HD (which I have provided) and I have found a few where the translations were terrible. But, to each his own.
