    If we return to the beta world line...
[00:03] ---
    If we undo that first D-mail...
SIGN    Being Meltdown
[00:06] ---
    You will die.
[01:46] ---
    So, there you are.
[01:49] ---
    If you keep lying there, you'll get heatstroke.
[01:52] ---
    You sleep on the roof of the lab
    all the time, don't you?
[01:56] ---
    Besides, it's cloudy now.
[01:58] ---
    Did you see Mayuri?
[02:00] ---
    Hashida said he couldn't find her at Comima...
[02:02] ---
    Yeah.
[02:04] ---
    I met up with her after that.
[02:07] ---
    I see.
[02:12] ---
    Hey, Okabe...
[02:14] ---
    What?
[02:23] ---
    All right.
[02:28] ---
    Hey.
[02:31] ---
    It's raining.
[02:38] ---
    WTF?!
[02:46] ---
    Why didn't you warn me earlier?
[02:48] ---
    I'm soaked, down to my underwear...
[02:51] ---
    I did tell you.
[02:52] ---
    It's your fault, Christina, for not listen—
[03:00] ---
    Y-You pervert!
[03:02] ---
    I wasn't trying to look...
[03:05] ---
    And it's your fault for wearing such thin clothes.
[03:08] ---
    I'd forgotten you were such a pervert.
[03:10] ---
    Who'd want to see your stick figure in the nude...
[03:13] ---
    One more word, and I turn
    your neocortex into a flower pot!
[03:17] ---
    What kind of threat is that?
[03:18] ---
    Stay away from me!
[03:21] ---
    What's that?
[03:24] ---
    I got scratched somewhere,
    when I was looking for you...
[03:27] ---
    Klutz!
[03:29] ---
    I'm classified as a "mad scientist"...
[03:31] ---
    Right, right!
[03:32] ---
    You're so much trouble...
[03:34] ---
    Hand that over.
[03:35] ---
    I have a sewing kit on me.
[03:37] ---
    I'll fix it up.
[03:39] ---
    A sewing kit?
[03:40] ---
    I consider myself more family-oriented
[03:42] ---
    than most people.
[03:44] ---
    Take it off.
[03:47] ---
    Just to be clear,
[03:49] ---
    it's dark, so don't expect too much.
[03:52] ---
    And you can look forward to finding out,
    after we leave, what color thread I used.
[03:56] ---
    Black, red, pink...
[03:58] ---
    You have a 33% chance of each one.
[04:01] ---
    I'll just pray it isn't pink.
[04:03] ---
    Stay back.
[04:05] ---
    Don't worry.
[04:06] ---
    I'm not interested in that stick figure of yours...
[04:07] ---
    I told you... A flower pot!
[04:12] ---
    Jeez...
[04:14] ---
    Where did you have to go,
    to rip your clothes like this?
[04:18] ---
    Today, I went to the lab,
[04:21] ---
    the laundry,
[04:22] ---
    a walk.
[04:24] ---
    And then to your hotel.
[04:27] ---
    The hotel? You stopped by?
[04:30] ---
    It's your fault.
[04:32] ---
    You wouldn't answer my messages.
[04:34] ---
    You weren't picking up your phone.
[04:36] ---
    Were you worried about me...
[04:38] ---
    As head of the lab,
    it's my job to keep track of my assistant.
[04:47] ---
    It isn't done yet?
[04:48] ---
    Almost...
[04:50] ---
    Here!
[04:51] ---
    That's cold. Hey!
[04:52] ---
    Just put it on.
[04:53] ---
    I'm not interested in the stick figure
    of a nude mad scientist.
[05:07] ---
    It was probably around here, right?
[05:14] ---
    The place I was stabbed...
[05:20] ---
    How did you know?
[05:22] ---
    The pain and despair were too real for a dream.
[05:30] ---
    Kurisu. You can't mean...
[05:34] ---
    I have hazy memories inside.
[05:39] ---
    Weak, almost nonexistent memories...
[05:44] ---
    Not just of being stabbed.
[05:47] ---
    I remember you, too... hazily...
[05:52] ---
    How desperate you were to save Mayuri.
[05:55] ---
    How you kept pressing forward,
[05:57] ---
    even hurt and all alone.
[06:00] ---
    You haven't made it back to your original world,
[06:03] ---
    but you've kept going,
[06:05] ---
    kept calling her name,
[06:08] ---
    kept crying...
[06:11] ---
    Kept trying to save her.
[06:14] ---
    Every time I see that face,
[06:16] ---
    I think about how important she is to you...
[06:20] ---
    And about whether it's possible for someone
[06:25] ---
    to truly care for another person that much...
[06:32] ---
    That's why I wanted to work with you.
[06:36] ---
    That's why I wanted to help you.
[06:44] ---
    Okabe, save Mayuri.
[06:50] ---
    You must save her.
[06:55] ---
    If we go to the beta world line, you'll die!
[07:04] ---
    But it's the only way...
[07:08] ---
    You know that better than anyone, right?
[07:11] ---
    There's only one option.
[07:13] ---
    You!
[07:15] ---
    You're telling me to abandon you?
[07:16] ---
    Is there another way?
[07:21] ---
    I've been thinking about the following since yesterday...
[07:24] ---
    "Isn't there some other way?"
[07:27] ---
    "Isn't there something else we can do?"
[07:30] ---
    But this time, I can't come up with anything...
[07:35] ---
    Except going to the beta world line.
[07:46] ---
    Okabe!
[07:48] ---
    I refuse to accept this...
[07:51] ---
    I won't give up!
[07:54] ---
    I can't...
[07:56] ---
    I can't abandon Kurisu.
[07:58] ---
    I can't let her die and then keep living.
[08:01] ---
    What would the point of that be?
[08:04] ---
    I...
[08:06] ---
    I...
[08:23] ---
    You can run away...
[08:25] ---
    You can run away, but that'll just make it worse!
[08:30] ---
    Shut up!
[08:33] ---
    No matter how many times you time leap,
[08:35] ---
    you can't get past the 1% barrier!
[08:37] ---
    We don't know until we try!
[08:39] ---
    You'll just see Mayuri die!
[08:42] ---
    Again...
[08:45] ---
    It'll destroy you.
[08:46] ---
    It won't...
[08:50] ---
    How many times do you think I've watched her die?
[08:54] ---
    I've seen it again...
[08:57] ---
    And again and again and again
[09:00] ---
    and again and again...
[09:03] ---
    It won't destroy me...
    The number of times I see it doesn't matter!
[09:12] ---
    Do you hear what you're saying?
[09:14] ---
    Mayuri's going to suffer and die...
[09:18] ---
    How can you say it doesn't matter?
[09:21] ---
    If that doesn't affect you,
[09:24] ---
    then your heart's already broken...
[09:29] ---
    Just stop...
[09:31] ---
    Or it really will break you.
[09:35] ---
    I know.
[09:37] ---
    I noticed it long ago.
[09:40] ---
    No matter how many times Mayuri died,
    I stopped being surprised.
[09:44] ---
    I'd gone numb without even knowing it.
[09:49] ---
    Sometimes, I even waited before time leaping,
    just to see when she'd die.
[09:54] ---
    At some point,
[09:55] ---
    it just stopped affecting me.
[10:00] ---
    Somewhere inside, I was calmly telling myself
    that I could do it over...
[10:14] ---
    Save her...
[10:16] ---
    If you don't, it will destroy you.
[10:20] ---
    If you let her die, you'll regret it... I'm certain!
[10:24] ---
    You and I have come this far,
    from the single wish to save her!
[10:29] ---
    If we stop, we'll always regret it.
[10:33] ---
    But if we save her...
[10:35] ---
    You'll...
[10:36] ---
    I'll just go back!
[10:37] ---
    To the first world line, before the D-mail was sent!
[10:40] ---
    That's what's best for me...
[10:42] ---
    And it's what's best for you!
[10:51] ---
    How many times have we fought,
    over these past twenty days?

[10:56] ---
    We've made fun of each other.
[10:59] ---
    We've talked about our problems.
[11:02] ---
    When my back was against the wall,
    I turned to Kurisu.

[11:05] ---
    Kurisu was the one who listened to me,
[11:08] ---
    who believed me...
[11:11] ---
    At eighteen, a genius with a
    published academic paper.

[11:15] ---
    Always calm, always strong-willed.
[11:18] ---
    Always so proud and nosy.
[11:21] ---
    But always so kind and honest.
[11:23] ---
    Her theories continually amazed me.
[11:28] ---
    And I remembered everything she said.
[11:31] ---
    Watched everything she did...
[11:36] ---
    She wasn't just another lab member.
[11:38] ---
    To me, Makise Kurisu was...
[11:49] ---
    I can't save you...
[11:55] ---
    I'm sorry.
[12:01] ---
    Thank you.
[12:03] ---
    For suffering so much for me...
[12:09] ---
    Why was it you?
[12:12] ---
    Why you?!
[12:15] ---
    Hey, what does it mean to change world lines?
[12:21] ---
    Maybe the second you go to the beta world line,
[12:25] ---
    you'll just disappear from this world.
[12:29] ---
    Or maybe you trade places with another Okabe.
[12:33] ---
    That doesn't matter...
[12:37] ---
    That's not true.
[12:39] ---
    I'm not dead.
[12:40] ---
    Even if I'm dead in the beta world line,
[12:44] ---
    there's no guarantee that I'm going to die here!
[12:47] ---
    There could be another me,
[12:49] ---
    amidst all the other, infinite world lines.
[12:51] ---
    And our minds are connected and comprise "me."
[12:56] ---
    Don't you think that'd be wonderful?
[13:01] ---
    You'd be everywhere, in every time, at once.
[13:05] ---
    A great love for someone,
[13:08] ---
    a great belief in something,
[13:10] ---
    a great desire to pass on something...
[13:13] ---
    If all those things surpass time itself and create "you,"
[13:18] ---
    wouldn't that be wonderful?
[13:21] ---
    So don't think of it as abandoning me.
[13:26] ---
    Even if the world line changes,
[13:29] ---
    as long as you don't forget me, I'm there.
[13:33] ---
    So...
[13:35] ---
    I will never forget you.
[13:43] ---
    I won't forget the person I care for most.
[13:47] ---
    Does that mean...
[13:49] ---
    It's the truth.
[13:50] ---
    H-How... It's so sudden...
[13:53] ---
    I'm in love with you.
[13:57] ---
    What about you?
[13:58] ---
    What do you mean?
[14:00] ---
    I want to hear your response.
[14:02] ---
    How do you feel about me?
[14:08] ---
    You want to know?
[14:10] ---
    Yeah.
[14:11] ---
    Your face... Close your eyes.
[14:15] ---
    Why?
[14:15] ---
    Just do it!
[14:48] ---
    I-I didn't want to do that, okay?
[14:51] ---
    But experiences, such as your first kiss,
[14:55] ---
    that are stored in the hippocampus with your
    strong memories are harder to forget.
[14:59] ---
    So...
[15:00] ---
    Too bad.
[15:02] ---
    That wasn't my first kiss.
[15:05] ---
    You bratty virgin!
[15:07] ---
    Shut up, virgin.
[15:09] ---
    My first kiss wasn't at all romantic.
[15:14] ---
    Anyway...
[15:16] ---
    That last one only left a weak impression.
[15:18] ---
    Once more.
[15:20] ---
    I don't want to forget, not ever.
[15:22] ---
    So I'll take extra care.
[15:25] ---
    Well, I guess that's okay.
[15:27] ---
    Just a kiss, right?
[15:34] ---
    Time is passing so quickly...
[15:39] ---
    Right now, I feel like complaining to Einstein.
[15:44] ---
    You know, Okabe...
[15:45] ---
    Whether time is slow or fast
[15:48] ---
    depends on perception.
[15:52] ---
    Relativity theory is so romantic.
[15:57] ---
    And so sad.
[16:08] ---
    Goodbye, then.
[16:09] ---
    Sure about not saying it to Mayuri and Daru?
[16:11] ---
    Everyone seeing me off would just make it worse.
[16:14] ---
    If it's only you,
[16:16] ---
    I can leave Japan without any hesitation.
[16:20] ---
    That was a joke.
[16:23] ---
    It's a present.
[16:24] ---
    Take it.
[16:27] ---
    I don't want this...
[16:28] ---
    I upgraded it to version 2.67.
[16:32] ---
    What a pain.
[16:34] ---
    But I'll take it anyway.
[16:38] ---
    Bye.
[16:45] ---
    Kurisu!
[16:45] ---
    Right...
[16:48] ---
    This is for you!
[16:57] ---
    Where were you throwing that?
[16:59] ---
    Go get it.
[17:01] ---
    Jeez...
[17:26] ---
    Okabe...
[17:27] ---
    I'm sure, whatever happens, you're going to suffer.
[17:33] ---
    Only you will remember me,
[17:36] ---
    in a world where no one else does.
[17:40] ---
    More than anyone else, you care for your friends,
[17:43] ---
    so that'll be painful for you.
[17:48] ---
    I'm sorry.
[17:51] ---
    But somehow, I'm glad you'll have that pain.
[17:55] ---
    Those times when you're sitting around the lab...
[17:57] ---
    When you drink a can of juice...
[17:59] ---
    When you walk around town...
[18:02] ---
    And someday, when you kiss someone.
[18:07] ---
    It doesn't have to be every time...
[18:09] ---
    It can be one time out of a hundred...
[18:11] ---
    But I'd like you to remember me.
[18:14] ---
    Because I'll be there...
[18:17] ---
    I'll be there, beyond the 1% barrier!
[18:23] ---
    Okabe...
[18:26] ---
    Okabe.
[18:28] ---
    Okabe!
[18:39] ---
    Oh, man.
[18:40] ---
    Okarin, I found it.
[18:42] ---
    This is it...
[18:43] ---
    This is totally it!
[18:45] ---
    If we delete this...
[18:46] ---
    Mission complete.
[18:49] ---
    Okarin,
[18:50] ---
    are you okay?
[18:53] ---
    I'm fine...
[18:55] ---
    We now begin the final phase of Operation Verdandi!
[19:00] ---
    Our victory is nigh!
[19:02] ---
    We have overcome all conspiracies...
[19:06] ---
    Upholding our ideals to the last.
[19:08] ---
    And finally, we have fought through
    the battle of Ragnarok!
[19:13] ---
    I thank those who have worked so hard for me,
[19:17] ---
    to ensure this victory!
[19:19] ---
    I am grateful to all those I have had to sacrifice...
[19:24] ---
    What comes now is the world I wished for!
[19:28] ---
    This is all the choice of Steins Gate!
[19:33] ---
    The world...
[19:36] ---
    ...will be rebuilt!
[19:39] ---
    Kurisu...
[19:46] ---
    I'm sorry.
[19:48] ---
    Okabe!
[19:56] ---
    Okabe...
[19:57] ---
    I'm also...
[19:58] ---
    Kurisu!
[19:59] ---
    I'm also in...
[20:18] ---
    Mayuri?
[20:20] ---
    Who is Lab Member 004?
[20:22] ---
    004?
[20:26] ---
    There isn't an 004.
[20:34] ---
    Now the battle of Ragnarok has ended!
[20:39] ---
    I, the mad scientist, Hououin Kyouma,
    have controlled time itself,
[20:43] ---
    foiling the Organization and SERN's schemes,
[20:46] ---
    and bringing about complete victory!
[20:50] ---
    The world's ruling structure has been reset!
[20:52] ---
    And a future of chaos awaits!
[20:55] ---
    This is the choice of Steins Gate!
[20:59] ---
    Okarin, it's all right.
[21:03] ---
    What are you saying?
[21:05] ---
    I've just issued a declaration of victory...
[21:07] ---
    You don't have to talk like that anymore.
[21:11] ---
    Mayushii is okay now.
[21:14] ---
    So you can cry for yourself, Okarin.
[21:23] ---
    We no longer need the Phone Microwave.
[21:25] ---
    Because of it, I met Kurisu.
[21:30] ---
    But because of it, so many were hurt...
[21:38] ---
    Just as Hououin Kyouma has died,
[21:40] ---
    the Phone Microwave should die, as well.
[21:44] ---
    Living should mean no do-overs...
[21:50] ---
    This is for the best. Right, Kurisu?
[23:00] ---
    Hello?
[23:01] ---
    Huh? Wh-Who's this?
[23:04] ---
    Dad?
[23:06] ---
    What?
[23:07] ---
    Okarin?
[23:08] ---
    Okarin, there's a mysterious girl
    who wants to talk to you!
[23:12] ---
    Who is this?
[23:13] ---
    Please come to the Radio Building's roof immediately!
[23:16] ---
    Who are you?
[23:17] ---
    I've come from the year 2036.
[23:20] ---
    I'm Hashida Itaru's daughter, Amane Suzuha!
[23:23] ---
    Suzuha?
[23:25] ---
    Wait!
[23:26] ---
    What are you doing here?
[23:28] ---
    Please believe what I'm about to tell you.
[23:31] ---
    You must stop World War III.
