Steins;Gate 0 (Season 1)

Steins;Gate 0 (シュタインズ・ゲート ゼロ, 2018) is the anime sequel series directed by Hiroyuki Tsuchiya, and you can watch all episodes online on iFILM. This isn't a continuation — it's a detour into the beta timeline, the branch where Rintaro Okabe failed. He tried to save Kurisu and ended up killing her himself. The mad scientist persona is gone. He's just a grad student now, trying to stop thinking about time travel.

Mamoru Miyano voices Okabe with a restraint that makes the character's earlier breakdown feel earned in retrospect. The story pivots on a neuroscientist who offers Okabe access to an AI built from Kurisu's memories — a digital reconstruction of the person he couldn't save. Whether to engage with it, and what that engagement costs, drives the season forward across multiple converging timelines.

Structurally more fragmented than the original Steins;Gate, this sequel rewards viewers who already know the characters — the emotional weight lands differently if you've watched the first series. Stream all episodes of Steins;Gate 0 online on iFILM.
