A fitting thing since it's the 5th Anniversary of the VN.

I was wondering what 5pb was hyping considering the 5th anniversary project already had a "goods idea" giveaway contest http://steinsgate.jp/5th/ plus they just ported the newest fandisc to ios.

If IBM's Oopa can get THOSE two to cook well, then I welcome my new overlord. I really hope this franchise has more in the pipeline after these shorts.

That comment cracked me up... Very Happy

I still have to watch the anime (it's on blu-ray in the "unwatched" collection), but have heard some of the music live (Kanako Ito with and without Chiyomaru Shikura, Yui Sakakibara, Ayane).

Let's hope Funimation acquires these shorts. Coincidentally, Gen Fukunaga worked as an engineer for IBM.

Dang I love how this came out of nowhere TODAY and is now all over and subbed everywhere so fast. Fans are great. Best part is they are using the same art and not some little sketch crap

I wish I'd realised someone had subbed the video before I copied and pasted the translation on to a word document and read it while I watched the video.

On a side note, I'm really surprised that these little shorts are actually properly animated and not some stupid chibi thing.
