It obviously couldn't live up to the outstanding first season, but for what it was up against...it did amazing! The characters are again the main focus of the show, and it works great, the characters are loveable and annoying when they need to be. They took a risk completely changing Okabes personality and it works also, for the most part, towards the end when he turns back to his old self it gets a bit messy. The plot is goood, not great, there is some repetition from the first season but overall is original. The beginning of the steins gate;0 is the best part, it opens so incredibly with the best pacing, simple story line different characters. Tbh the new characters are alright, they didn't feel like they added much to the chemistry between them, and were simply there for plot purposes. The ending was also alright, a bit confusing, a bit aggravating honestly... I was waiting for something in particular to happen and when it didn't I was surprised but also sad that I didn't happen, cause it would have been incredible...I can't say what, it's a spoiler, I'm sure you know if you know. The whole Amadeus thing was also a really smart way of bringing back a past character without actually bringing them back, it is also what divides this season from the first and makes it stand out from othe timey-wimey nonsense shows. My only real complaint is that I kept forgetting what happened in previous episodes...I may just be stupid, I also did watch each episode at two in the morning...but I kept getting confused if I was watching the right thing. A worthy sequel anyways. 8/10.
