[00:07] ---
    If you were here, you should've said something.
[00:10] ---
    You'll scare someone standing around like that.
[00:22] ---
    Happy New Year.
[00:25] ---
    It's just a simple greeting...
[00:27] ---
    Or maybe it's too late to say Happy New Year?
[00:30] ---
    Anyways, this is a shock.
[00:33] ---
    You never show your face anymore.
[00:37] ---
    Th-That's no way to start off the year!
[01:05] ---
    This world is not even real at all
[01:11] ---
    It's just a vision pulled over our eyes
[01:18] ---
    At the point of infinity, a mundane cosmos
    is overwriting all the values I know
[01:29] ---
    If some arrogant god thinks they've seized control
    and keeps pulling strings at the speed of light
[01:38] ---
    Then I, just I alone
[01:44] ---
    I'm fine being that miracle,
    that lethal minority
[01:50] ---
    I can fly high
[01:51] ---
    If that moment, if that place was
    something you thought was special to you
[01:57] ---
    The past doesn't have to be
    memories that simply drift away
[02:02] ---
    Instead of the pain of being hurt,
    everything about that precious scene will
[02:08] ---
    Become a light and give birth to zero
[02:13] ---
    There is no god. Wonderful new world.
[02:22] ---
    Sorry...
[02:23] ---
    Don't worry about it.
    Happens to me sometimes too.
[02:27] ---
    You were thinking of her...
[02:30] ---
    About Mayuri...
[02:32] ---
    Eh?
[02:33] ---
    She always comes to mind when I'm in the lab.
[02:36] ---
    You hear footsteps, the door opens...
    and you half-expect that greeting of hers again.
[02:43] ---
    Okabe?!
[02:51] ---
    Okabe?
[03:13] ---
    Okabe?!
[03:16] ---
    Sorry about that.
[03:17] ---
    No, I am.
[03:19] ---
    I said something I shouldn't have.
[03:21] ---
    Now that I think about it, you haven't
    stopped by here ever since Mayuri.
[03:28] ---
    Y-Yeah?
[03:30] ---
    Ever since then,
    you've practically fallen off the grid.
[03:33] ---
    Hashida too, but not nearly as bad as you.
[03:38] ---
    Is it true then? Is this an alpha world line?
[03:46] ---
    Where's the Phone Microwave?
[03:48] ---
    You're the one who demolished it,
    don't you remember?
[03:57] ---
    Okabe?
[03:58] ---
    I think... I need to go outside
    and get fresh air.
[04:02] ---
    Okay... Hang in there.
[04:14] ---
    The city and people feel the same...
    It's no different than yesterday.
[04:21] ---
    But, in this alpha world line,
    there's one reality...
[04:25] ---
    That is, no matter what I do, convergence
    will always result in Mayuri's death...
[04:30] ---
    ...in this world line.
[04:39] ---
    "From: Daru" "To: Okabe Rintaro"
    "She's being taken to the hospital right now.
    They say it's probably a heart attack. At least, that's what the paramedics said. Her parents are on their way to the hospital too."
[04:40] ---
    She's being taken to the hospital right now.
    They say it's probably a heart attack.
[04:45] ---
    Even if somehow,
    we escape the grasp of SERN...
[04:49] ---
    ...as long as we're in this world line,
    Mayuri will be killed by the world.
[04:54] ---
    That's why... That's why I...
[04:59] ---
    And yet, why am I back here?!
[05:02] ---
    Why did Reading Steiner kick in?!
[05:05] ---
    There wasn't a D-mail!
    I didn't use the time leap machine either!
[05:09] ---
    "Another Earthquake in Russia"
[05:13] ---
    Okarin?
[05:14] ---
    Huh?
[05:17] ---
    Daru?
[05:19] ---
    It's rare to find you in Akiba these days.
[05:23] ---
    Welcome home, meow!
[05:25] ---
    Welcome, Masters!
[05:28] ---
    I'm back!
[05:29] ---
    I brought Okarin with me today!
[05:33] ---
    O-Okabe-san?!
[05:35] ---
    Rukako?
[05:35] ---
    Kyouma!
[05:37] ---
    Missed you so much, meow! Kyouma!
[05:39] ---
    Have I really not come in that long?
[05:42] ---
    No, you haven't...
[05:44] ---
    For a while there, I didn't visit much either.
[05:47] ---
    Um...
[05:50] ---
    Nice to meet you, I'm Fubuki.
[05:53] ---
    I was one of Mayuri-chan's
    cosplay friends, so she was dear to me.
[05:57] ---
    Fubu-meow has been helping out at
    the cafe ever since Mayushii left us, meow.
[06:03] ---
    It's been tough, but I figured
    Mayuri-chan would be happier this way.
[06:09] ---
    Here's a picture of us at Summer ComiMa.
[06:11] ---
    The outfits she made us were so cute,
    we took a photo together to look back upon.
[06:16] ---
    She... was spunky as ever.
[06:19] ---
    Nothing at all seemed wrong with her...
    She was just, being herself...
[06:27] ---
    Fubu-meow, remember what I said?
[06:29] ---
    Mayushii would be worried
    if you keep on crying, meow...
[06:32] ---
    Okay, Fubu-meow?
[06:36] ---
    What if...
[06:39] ---
    What if there was a world...
    where Mayuri was able to live?
[06:44] ---
    What if that world... you knew was out there?
[06:49] ---
    Huh? Daru?
[06:51] ---
    Step outside, Okarin.
[06:53] ---
    Hey!
[06:56] ---
    Okabe-san...
[07:00] ---
    Wh-What's your problem?
[07:03] ---
    There's things you can say
    and things you shouldn't say!
[07:07] ---
    A world where Mayushii was able to live?!
[07:10] ---
    You're the one who couldn't
    make that decision, Okarin!
[07:14] ---
    Echelon's data... We had it cracked
    and everything, but you stopped it!
[07:20] ---
    I... couldn't press the key?
[07:24] ---
    Yeah...
[07:25] ---
    You kept saying it, over and over...
[07:29] ---
    I'm the one who killed Mayushii.
[07:32] ---
    I'm the one who made that choice.
[07:36] ---
    Why did you trash the Phone Microwave
    and time leap machine?!
[07:40] ---
    If you were going to regret it later,
    you should've kept it all intact!
[07:45] ---
    Even Miss Makise told you so...
[07:47] ---
    Kurisu did?
[07:48] ---
    She said we had a chance!
    That we can try it again!
[07:51] ---
    That there must be something we can do!
[07:55] ---
    "Television CRT Workshop"
[07:58] ---
    Hello, this is Makise.
[08:00] ---
    Hashida? It's been a while. Happy New Year.
[08:03] ---
    Happy New Year to ya.
[08:05] ---
    What a surprise.
    You practically never call me, Hashida.
[08:10] ---
    I ran into Okarin.
[08:13] ---
    I see...
[08:14] ---
    I bet he came to the lab too, right?
[08:16] ---
    Yeah...
[08:18] ---
    Did he say anything?
[08:20] ---
    Yeah, he's still not over Mayushii.
[08:24] ---
    He asked what if there was a world
    where we knew she could live.
[08:29] ---
    And then?
[08:31] ---
    I got mad... Couldn't believe he said
    that after everything that happened...
[08:36] ---
    Do you think...?
[09:09] ---
    Kurisu?
[09:10] ---
    You knew I was here?
[09:12] ---
    Of course I knew, it's you.
[09:15] ---
    I see...
[09:17] ---
    Just kidding.
[09:22] ---
    GPS.
[09:23] ---
    You had something like that?
[09:25] ---
    So you don't know after all...
[09:28] ---
    Okabe, you...
[09:31] ---
    ...came from another world line, didn't you?
[09:38] ---
    "Dual of Antinomy -Antinomic Dual-"
[09:44] ---
    That spot you're sitting in...
    That's where Mayuri always used to sit.
[09:49] ---
    The guy who gave up on her...
    He would never sit down in her spot.
[09:55] ---
    I guess that was his way
    of burdening the guilt.
[10:00] ---
    Plus, you had no idea about the GPS either.
[10:04] ---
    True, but what's it for?
[10:07] ---
    I won't say.
[10:15] ---
    That's...!
[10:16] ---
    I remade it.
[10:18] ---
    I call it Phone Microwave Revised. No... I
    suppose it's Phone Microwave (Revised).
[10:23] ---
    You made it again?! What for?
[10:27] ---
    To send a message into the past.
[10:29] ---
    No...
[10:31] ---
    In order to change world lines.
[10:34] ---
    Okabe, I want you to use this and
    go back to the world line you came from.
[10:39] ---
    What do you...
[10:41] ---
    Where you're from, Mayuri lives...
[10:43] ---
    Rather, you're from a world line
    where you were able to keep her alive.
[10:50] ---
    You... saw right through me?
[10:52] ---
    Of course. I've watched you for
    so long it's... I mean, not in that way...
[10:57] ---
    Well, it is, but...
[11:00] ---
    Anyways, you're Okabe Rintaro
    from another world line.
[11:04] ---
    There's nothing more to say.
[11:07] ---
    Go back.
[11:11] ---
    By changing world lines,
    it's true that Mayuri's able to live.
[11:17] ---
    But, even a world like that changed so easily...
[11:21] ---
    It changed back again
    without me doing anything...
[11:25] ---
    It's true... This time I did nothing at all...
[11:29] ---
    And yet, why did it end up like this?
[11:34] ---
    I did that to you...
[11:36] ---
    I took the you who loved me
    and made you disappear...
[11:41] ---
    And yet... And yet...
[11:44] ---
    You're telling me to kill you again?
[11:48] ---
    I can't... I can't do it...
[12:00] ---
    Hashida?
[12:03] ---
    Where's Okarin?
[12:05] ---
    He said he'll be back.
[12:07] ---
    In the end, we should've known
    Okabe could never forget Mayuri...
[12:14] ---
    But, Miss Makise...
[12:16] ---
    No, never mind...
[12:28] ---
    "Yushima Seido" "Achievement"
[13:03] ---
    Made up your mind yet?
[13:06] ---
    Of course you haven't...
[13:09] ---
    The trains are running, right?
[13:11] ---
    Meet me at Akihabara Station in an hour.
[13:15] ---
    Why?
[13:16] ---
    There's somewhere I want to take you.
[13:22] ---
    Hard to spot you without your lab coat.
[13:25] ---
    Where are we going?
[13:27] ---
    You'll know when we get there.
[13:37] ---
    What?
[13:38] ---
    It's just, we never rode
    the train together like this...
[13:42] ---
    Quit ogling at me or I'll report you.
[13:46] ---
    But I'm innocent.
[13:47] ---
    The law states even a gaze can
    be considered sexual harassment.
[13:53] ---
    Amadeus has got nothing on you.
[13:56] ---
    Amadeus?
[13:57] ---
    Oh, the artificial intelligence.
[13:59] ---
    How do you know about that?
    Did I ever tell you?
[14:02] ---
    Through Hiyajo-san and Professor Leskinen.
[14:05] ---
    Huh?! You know Maho-senpai?!
[14:07] ---
    What the heck happened in your world line?!
[14:09] ---
    What are you so angry about?
[14:10] ---
    I'm not angry! Hmph!
[14:17] ---
    Right after that, she was
    unable to access Amadeus.
[14:21] ---
    Hmm...
[14:22] ---
    What happened to Amadeus?
[14:23] ---
    I don't know...
[14:25] ---
    But from a rational standpoint, I can't imagine
    AI having anything to do with a world line change.
[14:31] ---
    A coincidence, then?
[14:33] ---
    Amadeus has all my memories stored within it,
[14:36] ---
    which means my time machine
    theory would be there too.
[14:40] ---
    It would?
[14:41] ---
    In theory, I denied their existence though.
[14:44] ---
    ...time machines are not possible.
[14:47] ---
    However, that is not to say
    they are impossible altogether.
[14:51] ---
    Kurisu... Amadeus answered me differently...
[14:55] ---
    I was hoping Daddy would look at it, so I...
[14:59] ---
    You're stealing my theory?
[15:02] ---
    Okabe?
[15:05] ---
    I'm all right.
[15:07] ---
    I can't believe you made
    friends with Maho-senpai.
[15:11] ---
    I bumped into her at a seminar.
[15:13] ---
    Then you must know how rude
    and stubborn that girl can be.
[15:17] ---
    So clumsy too...
[15:19] ---
    That part of her hasn't changed.
[15:21] ---
    I take it you were her feisty junior then?
[15:25] ---
    How rude! I was a very courteous junior.
[15:28] ---
    I always went out and
    bought her drinks, like jasmine tea...
[15:50] ---
    "Shiina Family Grave"
[16:00] ---
    The others must be visiting too...
[16:05] ---
    You were a complete wreck after Mayuri died...
[16:09] ---
    You stopped going to lab and college,
    and stayed here all day till the sun went down.
[16:15] ---
    It was as if...
[16:17] ---
    ...you were waiting for someone
    to come and take you to heaven...
[16:25] ---
    I couldn't do anything for you either.
[16:28] ---
    After all, you did it so I could live...
[16:33] ---
    Kurisu...
[16:34] ---
    But, that all ends now.
[16:38] ---
    It has to end now.
[16:40] ---
    At this rate, you'll be crushed by guilt.
[16:45] ---
    It's the same there...
[16:47] ---
    Even if I go to a beta world line...
[16:50] ---
    That feeling doesn't change...
[16:52] ---
    It's you I sacrifice, and I--
[16:54] ---
    Get a hold of yourself, Okabe Rintaro!
[17:01] ---
    Stop making that face...
[17:04] ---
    If you're the Hououin Kyouma I know,
    you've gotta be confident and strong...
[17:09] ---
    That's all just a big act! It's a lie!
[17:12] ---
    It's only something I did to cheer Mayuri up...
[17:17] ---
    All you wanted was for Mayuri to smile...
[17:20] ---
    That's all that matters.
[17:22] ---
    And I feel the same way too.
[17:25] ---
    The decision you made was not wrong.
[17:28] ---
    The only thing wrong is this world...
    This world line...
[17:32] ---
    That's why you have to return, Okabe Rintaro.
[17:36] ---
    You're here because this is only a dream.
[17:40] ---
    Return to reality.
[17:42] ---
    A dream?
[17:43] ---
    Yes...
[18:33] ---
    Let's go back... To the lab.
[18:40] ---
    Before you wake from your dream,
    promise me one thing.
[18:43] ---
    What's that?
[18:45] ---
    When you get back, forget all about me.
[18:48] ---
    There's no way... I can't...
[18:51] ---
    Do it, even if you can't... That's what I want.
[18:56] ---
    It's not about emotions, it's Amadeus...
[18:59] ---
    Eh?
[19:00] ---
    I don't know what caused
    your world line to change this time.
[19:03] ---
    But, it's obvious time machines
    are involved somehow.
[19:07] ---
    But, the Phone Microwave...
[19:08] ---
    I can't make any claims
    about myself in your world line,
[19:11] ---
    but in this one, I completed my
    time machine theory only after meeting you.
[19:18] ---
    Since I can't guarantee
    the same won't happen there,
[19:20] ---
    it's dangerous for you two to interact too much.
[19:29] ---
    It's a pinky promise.
[19:31] ---
    Lie, and I'll stab an electrode
    into your hippocampus!
[19:36] ---
    It's a pinky promise!
[19:40] ---
    That was lame.
[19:41] ---
    Shut up.
[19:48] ---
    "Don't come in."
    "Send message?"
    "Send | Cancel"
[19:58] ---
    Hey...
[19:59] ---
    Eh?
[20:00] ---
    Do you remember? How we first met...
[20:03] ---
    Grabbing and tugging my clothes like that...
    I thought you were some sort of pervert.
[20:11] ---
    I see...
[20:12] ---
    From her perspective, is that how we first met?
[20:17] ---
    I...
[20:20] ---
    Wait...
[20:29] ---
    Everything's ready.
[20:30] ---
    All that's left is to send that message, and
    you'll go back to the world line you came from.
[20:42] ---
    Okabe?
[20:43] ---
    Huh? Yeah...
[20:50] ---
    If I send this, I'll go back to that world line.
[20:55] ---
    A world where Mayuri lives...
    A world where I don't lose her...
[20:59] ---
    But instead, I lose her right there...
[21:02] ---
    Kurisu is gone, because I kill her...
[21:06] ---
    My most... most precious...
[21:19] ---
    Okabe?
[21:47] ---
    "Send message?"
    "Send | Cancel"
[21:58] ---
    I'm so glad I met you.
[22:02] ---
    Kurisu?
[22:02] ---
    "Don't come in."
    "Send message?"
[22:04] ---
    "Goodbye"
[22:06] ---
    "Send message?"
    "Send | Cancel"
[23:16] ---
    "Inbox Received"
    "From: Okabe"
    "Don't come in."
[23:23] ---
    Okabe!
[23:25] ---
    I feel the same! I love--
