While you're at it, it is
highly recommended to watch the
OVAs and the
Movie too. They're all connected to the series,
not just in a subtle way but very cleverly plotted by the author. Maybe he fragmented it to earn more or he did it to live up to the time travelling essence of the story? I don't know. But it will definitely surprise the hell out of you if you finish everything (
specially if you're the type of person who loves the mystery-crime-solving genre) coz, again, every entry is connected to each other.
In Japan, there are lots of spin-offs and game-related issues that are not going out to the West/EU and that's why fans play the visual-novel just to stay on course with the series.
