With both the original visual novel and anime currently available on store shelves, those in Western markets have had plenty of opportunity to enjoy the story that Steins;Gate presents. Artbook and manga publisher Udon Entertainment have announced that they have begun to release the manga adaptation in English for the first time.
The first two volumes of Steins;Gate are now available for purchase in select book stores and online retailers, with the third and final volume set for release in March 2016. This adaptation has been crafted by Yomi Sarachi.
Based on the original game, the Steins;Gate manga begins with a vital question: what do you get when you cross a microwave with a cell phone? A time machine, of course! Thanks to this wacky experiment, self-proclaimed mad scientist Hououin Kyouma and his Future Gadgets team now have the ability to send text messages into the past. But will this incredible power to alter the past be used for personal gain, to change the world, or for something much more sinister? The answers to these questions as well as the unpredictable consequences of time travel are explored in Steins;Gate, a gripping science-fiction adventure with a comedic edge.
