Steins;Gate deserves way more attention than it gets. It's one of the best science fiction stories I've ever seen, and the way they describe the way time travel could work in a realistic way makes sense. Or maybe I'm just a genius.
Steins;Gate is one of the most critically acclaimed anime series of all time. I think it's like number 4 top rated on MAL? So from a critical standpoint I don't think that's necessarily true. I do think, though, that in terms of fandom/fanbase/casual anime fans you have a point. Less deserving shows do get more wide-audience appeal. I see what you're saying.
I do know it's very highly rated, but very few people I've met seem to have seen it. And it does frustrate me that a lot of popular anime are not deserving of it and are taking the places of anime that really do need attention. I'm looking at you, Sword Art Online.
Katanagatari (The one in the picture) and Medaka Box. I really loved these series and find it a real shame that they are not getting any significant attention !!!!
