Steins;Gate Anime Announced

The head of the 5pb. game production company, Chiyomaru Shikura, has publicly announced that the 5pb & Nitroplus co-developed Xbox 360 “hypothetical science adventure” visual novel game Steins;Gate is getting an anime television series adaptation. The game revolves around teens in present day Akihabara, Tokyo that modify a microwave oven to send text messages to the past. The kids’ actions attract the dangerous attention of a mysterious organization also experimenting with time travel.

Hopefully this will turn out as a better anime than the rather awful adaptation of 5pb & Nitroplus’ first collaboration, Chaos;HEAd.
