I won't give up. Ever!
|
...Kuh!
|
Remember what I told you before? When we delete the D-Mail from SERN's database, we'll reach the Beta worldline, where Mayuri doesn't die.
|
And where SERN doesn't take over the world, right. Everyone lives. Everyone is free. You made it sound perfect.
|
Both of you get out of here. Now.
|
...What's this about?
|
I...
|
Eh?
|
Something to drink?
|
I’m thirsty, you know. Something warm, if you could.
|
Stop screwing around! I'm the one who has to deal with Mister Braun!
|
But I gave you five days advance notice.
|
Yeah.
|
That would be... nice.
|
When I send the D-Mail and change divergence, do you think Moeka's fate will change?
|
Based on the attractor field model you spoke of...
|
Whew...
|
This seems serious.
|
Our topic...
|
Okabe?
|
Why does it have to be this way!?
|
Okabe...
|
Yeah. Daru and I helped.
|
Then don't worry about it. I wouldn't want you to have to do it all over again.
|
On the Beta worldline, the events described in that D-Mail actually happened.
|
...
|
Heh.
|
Hey! What’s with that, ‘Oh, this is terrible. Right, right, ROFL,’ kind of laugh
|
Indeed I can. Want to experiment?
|
You haven't been able to send another email to the past yet, right?
|
...
|
A-Anyway!
|
...
|
...
|
I feel like I'm losing my humanity.
|
Then why are you hesitating now?
|
Heh heh heh... muhahaha... MUHAHAHAHA! Just as I suspected, the critical variable was time!
|
W-way to go, Okabe. It was so simple, I didn't notice it.
|
We're powerless against this conspiracy. One wrong move, and they'll have us erased.
|
But still--
|
Only the recipient himself is able to retain his memories. That would be my guess.
|
Hmmm...
|
First, let me say one thing. The greatest inventions are created by accident. This we call serendipity.
|
Get on with it.
|
So where are the theories? Why do physicists refuse to speak?
|
...It's a different field of study.
|
...You're not worriedâ‘° about me, are you?
|
W-what!? Don't be ridiculous! Why should I care!?
|
90 years ago...
|
Look.
|
I didn't know you were a <FONT incolor=
|
It's just an example. Geez.
|
...
|
Should I cut open your skull and jam an electrode into your hippocampus right now?
|
Me? I'm going to follow that Part-Time Warrior and report back as the situation changes.
|
Don't you dare. Let her be alone with her father.
|
Just be straight with him. Say 'I love you, Dad. Let's make up.'
|
I think that's a little out of character for me.
|
We've been thinking that the electrical discharge happens at random, but I have a hypothesis.
|
Which is?
|
Daru, don't decide things on your own!
|
What? You called me all the way to Japan, and now you--
|
Muhahaha! Don't worry about it! I wanted to test your character, so I made you angry on purpose!
|
...Huh?
|
Hmm?
|
Bye.
|
Assistant? It's me.
|

|
No no no! That's not how I seeâ‘° you, Lukako. You're a guy, remember!? Or are you denying reality too!?
|
You're the one denying reality!
|
So what should I do about Lukako?
|
Well, you tripped a romance flag, so...
|
But we knew Suzuha...
|
There's no way to prove that she was Hashida's daughter, or anything she said about 2036 either. Not without going there ourselves.
|
So then it's not a copy-paste at all, is it?
|
I don't know. No one's ever experienced time travel before.
|
I don't follow.
|
You're carrying an awful burden.
|
Muhahaha! Don't you know, Christina? This is what you call a Japanese Gag!
|
You sneaky...
|
...Give me a little time.
|
#000000
|
Wait. We're not getting anywhere. Instead of analyzing what I've doneâ‘°, let's think about what we can doâ‘°.
|
Time leaping won't change the result. I just said that.
|
Didn't we tell you earlier? Lukako is a bonafide guy!
|
You're the worst. Where do you get off calling her a guy?
|
In a few seconds, it won't have happened.
|
I see. That's how it looks from your perspective.
|
YOU'VE CROSSED THE LINE, BIIITTCH!
|
Get ahold of yourself.
|
B-but it's Lukako!
|
#000000
|
Does that mean you're abstaining from the vote?
|
...Time Leap Machine.
|
Eh?
|
Eh...?
|
Wasn't there something strange about that girl?
|
That girl... you mean Nae-chan?
|
Not so fast. There's more to this than you know.
|
Anyway, let's put that aside for now.
|
Were you about to say 'because Mayuri's dumb'?
|
N-no!
|
But that's boring.
|
It don't care if it's boring.
|
Shut up, you class rep wannabe.
|
Wh, what?
|
Anyway, is it correct to assume that we'll be targeting ourselves in the past?
|
Just like with D-Mail, we're using cellphones as the transfer medium.
|
What are you saying? It's me, Hououin Kyouma.
|
#000000
|
Future you didn't say anything about it either.
|
Oh, so that's what you mean. Maybe she just didn't have the chance.
|
Well then, genius girl, what do you call this phenomenon?
|
...
|
What were you doing?
|
...Thinking.
|
I've got business in Akiba.
|
What do you mean, business?
|
You weren't listening!?
|
#000000
|
What are you trying to say?
|
Let's say you choose the worldline where I die. That doesn't mean I have to do the same.
|
No! You're our friend! I won't abandon you!
|
Okabe!
|
You too.
|
Besides, your date's a minor, so don't even think about bringing her to a hotel, okay?
|
...We're going on a date tomorrow.
|
Yeah?
|
No! It's too dangerous.
|
You chickening out?
|
We're going to build your time leap machine, Christina. And you'd better not say it can't be done! Not after showing me the way!
|
Well, this isâ‘° Akihabara. I should be able to find the parts I need.
|
Think of it like an RPG. The ring singularity, the entrance to the event horizon, is the gate to the Demon Lord's castle.
|
D-demon Lord...?
|
Yes, I can see you're in a rush. I bet you don't even have time to lounge around and read.
|
...
|
If nothing has changed in seven years, then maybe it will take twice that much time.
|
I... guess you're right.
|
If you wish to learn the secrets of this microwave, then you must meet my conditions.
|
...Which are?
|
You saw it with your own eyes. You saw the email leap to the past! You saw the banana travel instantly through space!
|
I saw... but we must be missing something. Or maybe we're just seeing what we want to see.
|
You never stop complaining, do you?
|
#000000
|
Heh heh heh, that's the spirit. You're already fascinated by the conspiracy. You can't help but want to know what lies at the heart of SERN.
|
If what you guys are saying is true... then this isn't something to joke about.
|
What you want most right now is your own fork!
|
Wha--
|
Disconnected from causality, meaning?
|
It happens all the time in sci-fi. You'll become trapped in a closed time loop, never aging, never dying, but doomed to repeat the same day for all eternity.
|
In that case...
|
Hmmm...
|
Can I--
|
Can you... what?
|
Kurisu!?
|
Ugh, gh, Okabe!! Are you sure!?
|
What were you doing?
|
...Thinking.
|
8 PM tonight.
|
Hmmm...
|
Future Gadgets 1-7 are stored here. The PhoneWave, with which you are already familiar, is Gadget Number 8.
|
Future Gadgets, huh...
|
If you didn't complain so much about every little thing, we would've gotten here sooner.
|
Right back at you. You stopped to take a break at least five times along the way.
|
Basically, it's proof that SERN has something to hide. Can't you just smell the conspiracy?
|
I don't believe in conspiracies, but...
|
Don't be ridiculous. I am a mad scientist. I bear the curse of insanity, not clumsiness.
|
Yeah, yeah.
|
If you want to become a true mad scientist, you must learn to keep your emotions in check even as you cackle your way to victory!
|
Nobody asked you. And I'm already a scientist.
|
Steins Gate is Steins Gate. Nothing more, nothing less.
|
That doesn't explain anything.
|
Ah, so that's why you grabbed my phone when we first met.
|
When we first met? I didn't do that.
|
What?
|
I happen to have a sewing kit with me. I'll stitch it up for you.
|
What's so funny?
|
That has to be the cheesiest thing you've ever said.
|
This time...
|
Hmph!
|
What did she mean, she'll kill me in fifteen years?
|
Don't worry about it, Okabe.
|
'Humans are temporal beings.'
|
Heidegger. I was thinking of that quote too.
|
Why are you apologizing?
|
Because...
|
Well, what?
|
I'm asking for an explanation. What's this about the IBN 5100 and SERN?
|
You damn celebrity! If you're American, then you should at least use a motel instead of a hotel, right!?
|
I'm not American, and there aren't any motels in the heart of Tokyo.
|
We meet again, Christina.
|
How many times do I have to tell you!? I'm not Christina, or your assistant or--
|
What do you mean?
|
Based on what you've told me, you have the advantage this time. You already know the contents of the D-Mail.
|
What's wrong?
|
I have nothing to say to you.
|
Wait! What happened to stage two of Operation Urd!?
|
By stage two, you mean an experiment to see if we can change the past, right?
|
