Steins;Gate is a series awash in hype and hubbub, and has been weeks since before the season began. Some have compared it to Higurashi, what with the gruesome deaths and ever-present cicadas. Some have pointed to its predecessor, Chaos;HEAd, as a source of influence. (Well, they share the dumb semicolon-in-title thing.) For my part, I saw a lot of heavy Serial Experiments Lain influence throughout it, particularly in the constant buzzing static that plays under every sound you hear in the show.
It's probably not a good sign that despite these favorable comparisons, I spent most of this first episode thinking about Battlefield Earth.
