[00:02] ---
    Christmas Party?
[00:04] ---
    Yup! I'm getting everyone
    together to come to the lab.
[00:07] ---
    It'd be really great if you all could come!
[00:10] ---
    Even me?
[00:11] ---
    Are you sure?
[00:12] ---
    Fubuki-chan, Kaede-san, and Yuki-san too.
    You're my cosplay comrades.
[00:17] ---
    Of course, you can come! The more the merrier!
[00:21] ---
    I'll make you Santa costumes too,
    so you have to come!
[00:23] ---
    Really?
[00:25] ---
    Even though you're using all this stuff
    to make our Winter ComiMa outfits?
[00:29] ---
    Huhu... Mayushii is going all out.
[00:32] ---
    I'm making costumes you'll love,
    so look forward to it!
[00:35] ---
    Ooh! That's my bride! Marry me!
[00:38] ---
    Fubuki-chan's excited.
[00:41] ---
    You're going to wear one too, right?
    A Santa costume...
[00:44] ---
    Huh? But Mayushii specializes
    in making outfits, not--
[00:47] ---
    Objection!
[00:48] ---
    I'm with Yuki-san! That's such a waste!
[00:53] ---
    That's right.
[00:53] ---
    Besides, I bet Okabe-san wants
    to see Mayuri-chan in a costume too.
[00:57] ---
    Okarin does?
[00:59] ---
    Okarin-san is...?
[01:00] ---
    Ah, that's Mayushii's boyfriend.
[01:02] ---
    Wah? That's not true.
[01:05] ---
    Okarin and Mayushii aren't like that.
[01:08] ---
    Yeah, yeah...
[01:09] ---
    You two get along so well,
    I find it hard to believe you.
[01:13] ---
    I'm serious.
[01:15] ---
    Because...
[01:16] ---
    Okarin already has somebody he likes.
[01:22] ---
    Really?
[01:23] ---
    Yup!
[01:24] ---
    Mayushii and Okarin get along really
    well because we're childhood friends.
[01:46] ---
    This world is not even real at all
[01:52] ---
    It's just a vision pulled over our eyes
[01:59] ---
    At the point of infinity, a mundane cosmos
    is overwriting all the values I know
[02:09] ---
    If some arrogant god thinks they've seized control
    and keeps pulling strings at the speed of light
[02:19] ---
    Then I, just I alone
[02:25] ---
    I'm fine being that miracle,
    that lethal minority
[02:31] ---
    I can fly high
[02:32] ---
    If that moment, if that place was
    something you thought was special to you
[02:38] ---
    The past doesn't have to be
    memories that simply drift away
[02:43] ---
    Instead of the pain of being hurt,
    everything about that precious scene will
[02:49] ---
    Become a light and give birth to zero
[02:54] ---
    There is no god. Wonderful new world.

[03:05] ---
    "Tokyo Denki University Building 7"
[03:07] ---
    I thought I told you not
    to call me during class.
[03:10] ---
    But when I contacted you,
    that was during your break.
[03:12] ---
    What?
[03:13] ---
    I made sure to check the class
    schedule on your university's website.
[03:19] ---
    I knew you were ignoring me.
[03:21] ---
    I've got stuff I'm dealing with, all right?
[03:23] ---
    What is this so-called stuff?
[03:25] ---
    Well, that's...
[03:27] ---
    You should at least come up
    with a good excuse ahead of time.
[03:31] ---
    Anyways, quit calling me until I pick up.
[03:34] ---
    It's because you can't even
    keep a single promise with me.
[03:38] ---
    Promise?
[03:39] ---
    Don't you remember?
    You said you would take me to this lab of yours.
[03:43] ---
    We might call it a lab,
    but we just screw around there.
[03:47] ---
    Still...
[03:49] ---
    The original me went there before, didn't they?
[03:52] ---
    Well...
[03:54] ---
    You're so evasive. Which is it?
[03:56] ---
    "Incoming Call: Mayuri"
[03:57] ---
    Got a call. I'm hanging up.
[04:02] ---
    Hello?
[04:04] ---
    Ah, Okarin?
[04:05] ---
    Guess what? Fubuki-chan and the others
    said they can make it to the Christmas party.
[04:10] ---
    Really? That's great.
[04:12] ---
    And um...
[04:13] ---
    I bought so much stuff for making outfits,
[04:16] ---
    I was wondering if you could help
    me carry all of it back home?
[04:20] ---
    All right.
[04:21] ---
    Can we meet at the lab after my lecture?
[04:24] ---
    Yup!
[04:25] ---
    I'll be waiting for you!
[04:28] ---
    Okarin said he would come!
[04:30] ---
    That's wonderful, meow!
[04:32] ---
    Now it's just down to Suzu-san...
[04:34] ---
    Did you tell her, meow?
[04:35] ---
    Yeah...
[04:36] ---
    But I'm not really sure if she'll come.
[04:38] ---
    Isn't she always at the lab anyways, meow?
[04:41] ---
    Yeah, but whenever somebody shows up,
    she always runs off somewhere.
[04:46] ---
    It'll all work out, meow!
[04:49] ---
    Leave it to Faris, meow!
[04:54] ---
    Oh? So, this is Akihabara?
[04:56] ---
    It's rude to stare at my phone and walk.
[04:58] ---
    I'm hanging up.
[04:59] ---
    Wait. If you hold the camera so I can see,
    you don't have to look at the screen.
[05:03] ---
    Okay.
[05:08] ---
    Oh?
[05:11] ---
    "Limited Edition Complete Set with
    Collector's Box while Supplies Last"
[05:11] ---
    Oh! Wait... Never mind.
[05:15] ---
    It's a bit messier than I imagined.
[05:19] ---
    Radio Building?
[05:22] ---
    Ah!
[05:23] ---
    Hmph! What are you doing?!
[05:24] ---
    "Radio Building Akihabara"
[05:24] ---
    H-Hey!
[05:26] ---
    "Television CRT Workshop"
[05:27] ---
    Ah!
[05:28] ---
    Oh? If it isn't Okabe.
[05:30] ---
    Hello!
[05:31] ---
    It's been a while.
[05:33] ---
    Who's that?
[05:34] ---
    Be quiet.
[05:35] ---
    Man, how the times have changed.
[05:38] ---
    You're a legit college student now.
[05:40] ---
    Keep it up, champ.
[05:42] ---
    Just how much of a slacker were you?
[05:44] ---
    Shut up!
[05:46] ---
    Huh?
[05:50] ---
    This is the lab.
[05:51] ---
    This place?
[05:58] ---
    It's filthy.
[06:00] ---
    That's all you've got to say?
[06:02] ---
    Sorry, let me rephrase that.
[06:04] ---
    It's full of junk!
[06:06] ---
    Ugh...
[06:06] ---
    Laboratories tend to be messy
    wherever you go, but this is overdoing it.
[06:11] ---
    Told you it wouldn't be anything
    like you thought it would be.
[06:15] ---
    Looks more like wreckage than a lab.
[06:17] ---
    This place gives
    Maho's room a run for its money.
[06:20] ---
    Should you be blabbering private info like that?
[06:24] ---
    Could you please say something to her too?
[06:27] ---
    Tell that girl to go clean her room.
[06:30] ---
    Ugh, if I told her that, she'd bite my head off.
[06:34] ---
    Still...
[06:36] ---
    I always yearned for this...
    to share a room with people.
[06:41] ---
    With our own personal forks
    and spoons and stuff.
[06:48] ---
    Oh! You're already here, Okarin!
[06:50] ---
    Too-too-roo!
[06:53] ---
    Are you listening to music?
[06:55] ---
    Is that your friend? I'd like--
[06:57] ---
    Bye.
[06:58] ---
    Hey! I--
[07:00] ---
    You were on a call?
[07:02] ---
    Don't worry about it.
[07:03] ---
    Is this what you meant?
[07:05] ---
    That's a lot of luggage.
[07:08] ---
    Because I'm making outfits for
    Winter ComiMa and some Santa costumes too.
[07:12] ---
    The Christmas Party? Is everyone coming?
[07:15] ---
    Yup!
[07:16] ---
    Fubuki-chan, Kaede-san, Yuki-san,
    Ruka-kun, and Faris-chan.
[07:21] ---
    Even Yuki-san?
[07:22] ---
    Of course!
[07:24] ---
    You know what Mayushii thinks?
[07:25] ---
    Daru-kun and Yuki-san
    are perfect for each other!
[07:29] ---
    Fubuki-chan said,
    "No! No way is that ever happening!"
[07:35] ---
    "Radio Building"
[07:44] ---
    Searching for this is your and my first mission.
[07:48] ---
    Um... O-Okey-dokey?
[07:52] ---
    Good answer.
[08:06] ---
    Oh, it's just Big Sis Rumi.
[08:08] ---
    Hmm? Big Sis Rumi?
[08:10] ---
    Who's that, meow?
[08:11] ---
    Faris is Faris, meow!
[08:14] ---
    If you don't show your face once in a while,
    people will worry about you, meow.
[08:20] ---
    If I go there, Mom--
[08:22] ---
    I mean, it's more relaxing being alone.
[08:26] ---
    I brought you snacks, meow!
[08:28] ---
    All of your favorites, meow!
[08:31] ---
    They won't expire until tomorrow,
    so take your time and enjoy, meow!
[08:35] ---
    Thanks.
[08:36] ---
    How is Daru's time machine research going, meow?
[08:40] ---
    He's doing his best, but...
[08:43] ---
    Not so easy is it, meow?
[08:46] ---
    Sorry for all the trouble.
[08:49] ---
    It's fine, meow.
[08:50] ---
    Faris does nothing more than rent out
    this floor and the one beneath it, meow.
[08:55] ---
    Nothing more?
[08:56] ---
    To be honest, I owe you so much, it's not funny.
[09:01] ---
    Don't you worry, meow.
[09:03] ---
    If that's what it takes to save the world's
    elementals from the Byakhee, meow!
[09:07] ---
    Faris is always ready to help, meow!
[09:10] ---
    Y-Yeah?
[09:11] ---
    I don't quite get it, but thanks.
[09:16] ---
    Big Sis... Dad...
[09:18] ---
    For everyone's sake,
    I need to take Uncle Okarin with me...
[09:22] ---
    To the entrance of Steins Gate.
[09:30] ---
    "Brain Science Institute"
[09:31] ---
    The 24th? On Christmas Eve?
[09:34] ---
    Why not get his report a different day?
[09:36] ---
    Lintahlo himself said he had
    no problems meeting up with us then.
[09:40] ---
    Do you have something going on that day?
[09:43] ---
    No, I don't. I have no plans.
[09:46] ---
    Then why don't you dress up
    as Santa and invite him somewhere?
[09:49] ---
    In this country, having no plans on the 24th
    is essentially saying you don't have a lover.
[09:56] ---
    Meaning Lintahlo likely has no--
[09:58] ---
    Why does it always come down to this?!
[10:01] ---
    That's all you and her ever talk about!
[10:03] ---
    Yeah? It's very exciting to me.
[10:06] ---
    Huh?
[10:07] ---
    Aren't you curious to find out
    what sort of relationship
[10:10] ---
    develops between Amadeus and Lintahlo?
[10:14] ---
    You need not worry from a security standpoint.
[10:16] ---
    The system operates using memories,
    which means it's remarkably secure.
[10:21] ---
    That's not what bothers me.
[10:23] ---
    Hmm?
[10:23] ---
    "Okabe Green Grocer"
[10:26] ---
    What I'm worried about is...
[10:36] ---
    What do you want?
[10:37] ---
    Is that all you have to say?
[10:39] ---
    What I'm worried about...
[10:42] ---
    "Displacement behavior.
    Finding yourself after the loss of a loved one..."
    "Why does displacement occur? An approach to coping..."
[10:44] ---
    ...is Okabe Rintaro.
[10:50] ---
    "Christmas Cake"
[10:54] ---
    Are you getting tired of this yet?
[10:56] ---
    Oh! We haven't been around that corner yet.
[10:59] ---
    I won't let you make me late for the meeting.
[11:02] ---
    It'll only take a minute.
[11:04] ---
    You still have 365 seconds
    until you promised to meet them.
[11:08] ---
    Sheesh.
[11:13] ---
    Having fun?
[11:14] ---
    It's frustrating that I can't move on my own.
[11:18] ---
    "1/120 Scale Radio-Controlled
    Plastic Model Helicopter"
[11:19] ---
    I know!
[11:20] ---
    Could you link your phone up
    to a radio-controlled camera?
[11:23] ---
    Then I could--
[11:24] ---
    Not happening.
[11:25] ---
    What the heck?
[11:26] ---
    Why are you so vocal with me when
    you could hardly pipe up at your group date?
[11:31] ---
    H-How did you...?!
[11:33] ---
    You're the one that forgot to close the app.
[11:36] ---
    I was listening in the background
    the whole time. It was so hard not to crack up.
[11:41] ---
    Your one-liners were atrocious.
[11:43] ---
    Who runs away when the dating games start?
[11:46] ---
    You totally ruined truth or dare.
[11:47] ---
    Wait a second...
[11:48] ---
    When we meet Hiyajo-san and the professor,
    will you be giving them your logs?
[11:52] ---
    Of course, and everything
    I heard will be included too.
[11:57] ---
    What's more...
[11:58] ---
    All we've talked about
    is stored in the logs too.
[12:01] ---
    Like how your family sells veggies,
    but you hate eggplants.
[12:04] ---
    And how you called me
    Christina the first time we met.
[12:09] ---
    Quit it.
[12:10] ---
    So? Why Christina?
[12:14] ---
    You're so stubborn.
[12:16] ---
    Human memories are vague. As time goes on,
    new ones pour in and it all mixes together.
[12:22] ---
    Meaning?
[12:23] ---
    Unfortunately, Amadeus is an incomplete AI.
[12:27] ---
    That vagueness is lost.
    In other words, I can't forget.
[12:32] ---
    But didn't the Amadeus shown
    during the presentation forget things?
[12:37] ---
    That's simply a process of making trivial logs
    inaccessible from a data standpoint.
[12:42] ---
    It's all in a log somewhere.
[12:44] ---
    So, you'll never stop asking
    why I called you that.
[12:47] ---
    That's how it is.
[12:48] ---
    Aren't you a bit too persistent?
[12:50] ---
    Your evading the question made me curious.
[12:54] ---
    Curiosity killed the cat, you know.
[12:57] ---
    That's never stopped researchers like me before.
[13:03] ---
    Lintahlo!
[13:08] ---
    Sorry!
[13:10] ---
    I was there on time, but...
[13:12] ---
    What were you doing?
    Loitering around in a place like that...
[13:17] ---
    More importantly, what do you think of Kurisu?
[13:22] ---
    It's a strange feeling.
[13:24] ---
    I know she's AI, but it's as if...
[13:27] ---
    Sounds like you have a
    load of good stories for us.
[13:31] ---
    I was planning to check out the
    data at the university after this, but...
[13:33] ---
    Senpai! Senpai!
[13:36] ---
    Are you free tonight? If you'd like,
    you're more than welcome to join us for dinner.
[13:37] ---
    Go for it! This is your big chance!
[13:39] ---
    You've gotta try to get him before--
[13:42] ---
    Tonight?
[13:44] ---
    Sorry...
[13:45] ---
    I already promised my friend
    I would go to their Christmas party tonight.
[13:53] ---
    Party?!
[14:07] ---
    Dad?
[14:09] ---
    "Television CRT Workshop"
[14:09] ---
    Wow!
[14:11] ---
    What a lovely lab this is, Lintahlo!
[14:14] ---
    Thank you very much for inviting us!
[14:17] ---
    Japanese maid girl? Or... cat girl?
[14:21] ---
    Um, how do you know them?
[14:23] ---
    We talk on the phone.
    They're Hiyajo-san and Professor Leskinen.
[14:26] ---
    They help me out at University.
[14:28] ---
    Is this really okay?
    For us to intrude on your friend's party?
[14:32] ---
    Lintahlo said we were
    welcome to come, so it's all good.
[14:36] ---
    He didn't mean it! He was just being polite!
[14:39] ---
    You practically forced him into it!
[14:42] ---
    You're not happy to be here?
[14:43] ---
    Wh-Why does that matter?
[14:47] ---
    Which grade are you?
[14:48] ---
    Eh?
[14:50] ---
    Sorry, but I'm a grown-up despite my looks.
[14:55] ---
    Huh?
[14:56] ---
    Yeah...
[14:58] ---
    This lab of yours is so merry,
    Lintahlo, and full of beautiful girls!
[15:05] ---
    In fact, the one over
    there is astoundingly sexy.
[15:10] ---
    But he's a dude.

    By the way, is Suzuha coming?
[15:22] ---
    Yup! Daru-kun is on that mission as we speak.
[15:26] ---
    Daru is?
[15:27] ---
    Yup!
[15:28] ---
    I hope he can trick her into coming.
[15:31] ---
    Trick?
[15:32] ---
    Yeah...
[15:34] ---
    She wouldn't come if she knew it was
    a party, so he said he would trick her.
[15:38] ---
    "Juicy #1 Chicken Tenders"

    Daru has a lot riding on his shoulders.

    All right, everyone! Let's get in place!
[15:51] ---
    Yeah!

    Hey!

    I'm coming in!

    I'm coming in with Suzuha!
[16:14] ---
    Dad, stop!
[16:15] ---
    Eh? Ah!
[16:17] ---
    Merry Christmas!
[16:24] ---
    Welcome, Suzu-san!

    Huh?

    U-Um?

    M-Mo--

    Suzu, meow! Christmas!
    A surprise Christmas, meow!
[16:40] ---
    It's only a party...
[16:42] ---
    Eh?
[16:44] ---
    S-Sorry...
[16:46] ---
    I-I was just trying to surprise you...
[16:52] ---
    So that's why Da--
    I mean, my brother was acting funny.
[16:56] ---
    I'm sorry. Mayushii was the one that planned it.
[17:00] ---
    No, I'm not mad, but...
[17:03] ---
    This is something else.
[17:04] ---
    The lab looks so different now.
[17:06] ---
    Yeah! Everyone helped put up decorations!
[17:09] ---
    Mayushii threw this party together
    hoping it would cheer you up.
[17:14] ---
    I see...
[17:16] ---
    But I... I'm not here to play and have fun.
[17:21] ---
    You guys have a good time without me.
[17:24] ---
    You should stay.
[17:29] ---
    Enjoy it.
[17:32] ---
    Th-That's right!
[17:34] ---
    We're all just having a meal together.
[17:36] ---
    Stay and eat with us and
    be grateful for the food, okay?
[17:45] ---
    It's about time we had the toast, meow!
[17:48] ---
    One, two...
[17:49] ---
    Merry Christmas!
[17:52] ---
    Cheers!

[18:18] ---
    Okarin?
[18:19] ---
    We're about to start the present exchange.
[18:22] ---
    I'll be right back.
[18:34] ---
    I've got a hypothesis.
[18:36] ---
    What's that?
[18:38] ---
    Theory one...
[18:39] ---
    Your favorite Hollywood actress is named
    Christina, so you called me that on accident.
[18:46] ---
    Way off.
[18:47] ---
    Two. Your ex-girlfriend was named...
[18:50] ---
    That can't be it. Sorry.
[18:53] ---
    Hold on.
[18:54] ---
    Did you date someone then?
[18:55] ---
    Eh?
[18:57] ---
    I'll consider your silence as a no.
[19:01] ---
    Shut up.
[19:03] ---
    Three...
[19:04] ---
    That's what you called the original me,
    either directly or indirectly.
[19:10] ---
    Though the possibility of that seems low.
[19:12] ---
    And why is that?
[19:13] ---
    Because I know what I would say.
[19:16] ---
    Don't call me that!
[19:21] ---
    Okay! Closer! Just scoot a bit closer!
[19:25] ---
    O-Okay!
[19:27] ---
    I'm against this! I'm totally against this!
[19:30] ---
    U-Um, I'm so sorry...
[19:33] ---
    N-No, don't worry.
[19:35] ---
    This isn't your fault, Nae-chan.
[19:39] ---
    Th-They're so cute...
[19:40] ---
    All is well in the world! Huff!
[19:44] ---
    Okabe-san sure is late.
[19:46] ---
    Hmm, yeah.
[19:47] ---
    I'll check up on him.
[19:55] ---
    Could it be... I was right?
[19:58] ---
    Quit making assumptions.
[20:00] ---
    Well then, give me an answer already.
[20:04] ---
    Do you want... to know why?
[20:08] ---
    Yes.
[20:10] ---
    Because I was embarrassed.
[20:12] ---
    Eh?
[20:14] ---
    I couldn't say it normally, so I teased you.
[20:18] ---
    You mean... my name?
[20:22] ---
    Yeah.
[20:26] ---
    Uh, um... Th-Thanks for telling me.
[20:36] ---
    Why are you turning all red?
[20:39] ---
    Huh? I-I'm not turning red, I'm not!
[20:42] ---
    I-If you think you caught me off guard
    treating me like a girl or something,
[20:45] ---
    th-that's so far from the truth!
[20:49] ---
    Wh-What?
[20:52] ---
    I...
[20:54] ---
    Eh?
[20:56] ---
    It's... that part of you that I...
[20:58] ---
    Huh? You...
[21:04] ---
    Wha?
[21:05] ---
    Huh? Senpa--
[21:08] ---
    Hiyajo-san? What are you doing?
[21:11] ---
    I told you.
[21:13] ---
    It's easy to be deluded.
[21:16] ---
    Make no mistake...
[21:18] ---
    This right here is Amadeus.
[21:21] ---
    Not Makise Kurisu.
[21:25] ---
    That's...
[21:26] ---
    Makise Kurisu is dead.
[21:34] ---
    Dead.
[21:37] ---
    She's not here anymore.
[21:41] ---
    Dead...
[21:50] ---
    Okabe-san?!
[21:54] ---
    What the?! Okabe-san?!
[22:10] ---
    Come to me
[22:13] ---
    Embrace my tears
[22:16] ---
    Let me guide you down into my soul
[22:22] ---
    And let us pray for the world to realize
[22:29] ---
    There is peace, the truth within us
[22:35] ---
    Emptiness erodes your heart
[22:41] ---
    Coz you're free from pain and sorrow
[22:48] ---
    Future is just too bright to show you ways
[22:54] ---
    Wake up now...it's time to lead new souls
[23:01] ---
    Orbit of photon and universe
[23:08] ---
    I am just the part of its plan
[23:14] ---
    The eye cannot see the warped sky
[23:20] ---
    Where do the people think they are walking
