This is...
A time machine.
I'm from the year 2036.
Suzuha...
I'm the time traveler...

Missing Link
Necrosis
In the year 2036,
the world is ruled by SERN.
It's an oppressive, totalitarian society— a dystopia.
People were robbed of their freedom,
and they live like zombies.
Anyone who disobeyed was killed.
I was part of the resistance,
fighting to free the world from SERN's control.
To change this forsaken world...
...I entered the time machine my father left me.
It was all to change the future.
Then everything you wrote on @channel...
Yes, most of it was true.
But SERN is a research organization,
not a ruling body.
On the net, I told John Titor that many times.
Wait!
Does that mean you
are Chestnut Rice and Kamehameha{Kamehameha, lit. Turtle Destruction/Devastation Wave}?
Titor identified himself,
so it wouldn't be fair if I didn't, right?
Then I'll identify myself as well.
I was using the trip Hououin Kyouma—
We know that.
SERN succeeded in developing a time machine.
Since they were the only ones able to
interfere with the fourth dimension, time,
they remade the world map, so to speak,
and Makise Kurisu is the one
who contributed the most to the time machine's development.
She's hailed as the mother of the time machine.
I worked with SERN?
No way!
Why would I work with people who perform human experiments?
That's what happened in the future.
So that's why you disliked me...
What about the future me?
Okabe Rintarou is a famous terrorist.
Terrorist?
A terrorist who fought SERN.
And you're both...
...dead in the year 2036.
I need to hurry.
Wait.
You said something crazy like that,
then you're just going to return to the future?
That's why I'm leaving.
I'm going to the past to change the future.
To 1975...
1975?
SERN succeeded in developing the time machine
due to the time machine created in Akihabara in 2010.
You mean the Phone Microwave?
SERN used a communication monitoring system
to gather all the information they could on time machines from around the world.
I think the first D-mail you sent tripped the system.
The message I sent in front of the radio building?
Yes.
So if we delete the message from SERN's database...
...the future will change.
We can go to the beta world line,
where SERN never created a time machine.
Will that save Mayuri?
Probably.
Then we should start hacking SERN's database immediately...
We need the IBN 5100 for that.
I see. So that's why...
My task was to go to 1975,
find an IBN 5100,
and get it to Okabe Rintarou,
but I stayed too long to look for my father.
I should've left earlier.
Is everything okay?
It's...
It's broken.
This is bad!
What do we do?
I'll think of something.
You hide.
Run when you can.
Anyone here?
Who's there?
Stay back!
I'm in the middle of an operation
to end the Organization's schemes!
This is a level 17 top secret mission,
so stay away from this place!
This way! Hurry!
Hey!
Wait!
We're running.
Hurry!
I don't know what happened in the future,
but right now, I'm a lab member, just like you!
Okabe!
You're safe?
Let's go!
What do we do?
We can't go back there.
Was the time machine broken?
Was it from when it crashed into the roof?
It didn't crash.
There was an error in calculating the coordinates
so it appeared there.
When I arrived, it wasn't broken.
Then when?
If I had to guess, I'd say that thunderstorm we had...
It might've been hit by lightning or flooded...
It's my fault.
Because I stopped you then...
I'll use the time leap machine...
We can only use it to go back 48 hours.
We can't get back to that night.
Okarin!
And Kurisu and Suzu are with you!
You didn't go home?
Mayushii said we should have a party to celebrate the time machine's completion after all.
Daru and I went shopping!
I said we were done for the day!
I'm sorry, Mayuri.
We have to talk about something important.
Okarin?
Just go home for today.
We'll have the party another time.
All right.
But don't do anything dangerous.
Mayushii is worried.
It'll be fine.
I promise.
See you tomorrow then!
Yeah.
I heard the trains stopped.
Seriously?
We'll have to repair the time machine.
First, go back five hours ago,
when the time leap machine was completed.
From there, go back 48 hours
to 2:00 PM on the 11th.
That's the most time we have.
I'll finish the time machine during those two days,
no matter what.
If I can't, I'll redo those two days as many times as it takes.
This isn't to save the world.
It's a mission to save Mayuri.
Okabe?
What's wrong?
Gather all the lab members right away.
There's something I want to talk to them about.
Future tech is great.
This must be photoshopped.
Can you fix it?
Miss Amane, you can't do it yourself?
I really can’t.
My father's the one who made it.
There's no way we can fix a time machine from 2036
using today's tech—
We won't know until we try.
Anyway, try to do it in two days, Daru.
You're our only hope.
Why two days?
Well...
Just do it!
If you can, I'll do anything you want.
Teacher, I want to have a day long date with Feyris!
All right. I'll make it happen somehow.
No, that's impossible.
I can do anything!
Believe in me.
You're serious? For real?
I promise,
so do it.
Very well!
One more thing, okay?
If I fix it, in addition to the IBN 5100...
...get me a cel{http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cel} from the legendary
1975 magical girl anime, Ragical Girl Omit!
Get to work.
Should I help too?
No, you need to finish the time leap machine.
We should get back to the la—
Hey, aren't you all forgetting something?
We should look for Suzu's dad.
I'm all right—
No, you're not!
You got in the time machine
because you had a job to do,
but you also wanted to see your dad, right?
So Mayushii wants to help you find him.
Your dad's name was Barrel Titor, right?
That was his code name.
I don't know his real name.
Where's "Amane" from?
From my mother.
My only clue is this little badge he had.
Your dad is in 2010's Akihabara, right?
Okay, Mayushii will be the investigator.
Shiina Mayuri... is a good girl, isn't she?
Think you can fix it?
I can't say for sure,
but looking at it, I guess...
...it's kind of like the Phone Microwave.
Then it's possible you can fix it, right?
I wonder if your dad's nearby.
He knew that we were in Akiba in 2010, right?
I think so,
but I never heard from him directly.
I've never met him.
Everything was in his will.
My dad was researching a time machine separately from SERN...
...to change the future.
I'm here to carry on his legacy.
I really am sorry...
But if I can fix the time machine, it's possible that
we'll find your dad before you get back from 1975.
So keep this a secret from Okarin
and try to get me that cel...
That's a pretty straightforward way to do it.
Supposedly, we're the Future Gadget Lab,
yet you don't have a more futuristic way?
Nothing's as convenient.
Future Gadget #2, alt. edition.
Version 2.67.
AKA the Bamboo Copter Camera.
There's a CCD camera on the lower body.
Surprisingly practical.
Could we use this for an aerial search?
The camera spins too,
so the video you receive revolves at a high speed.
You're at version 2.67, and that still isn't fixed?
That's the first one we’ve made.
Daru came up with the name, along with the version.
There's no real meaning.
Where's Daru?
He's still hard at work.
The Divergence Meter...
You made it, so I think you should have it.
If this number goes above 1%, the future will change.
You're the only one who will know,
with your Reading Steiner.
Did I give you that before I died in the future?
No, I never met you.
You were a founding member of the resistance I was in.
I founded the resistance?
How stupid.
I couldn't even save Mayuri,
and I kept on living
like a stupid little kid with his fantasies?
It wasn't stupid!
It was an honest, brave desire to save the world!
Hey, mister...
I am mad scientist!
It's so cool!
You sonuvabitch.
Yes, what is it?
So Japanese works, huh?
There's something I want to ask you.
Ever seen this before?
I want to know where it came from.
Can you look into it for me?
The remember.
Sorry, it's difficult.
Are you sure Japanese works?
If you remember, contact me here.
Maybe this’ll be created in the near future,
but it doesn't exist now?
Maybe it's fate that I never meet my dad, after all.
Want to give up on it?
You're giving up?
We still have a day!
What are you—
I want to prioritize saving Mayuri!
Even so, you're a lab member and a friend.
I want to help you if I can!
So why are you already giving up?
D-Don't yell at me, okay?
I'm sorry.
Please!
What is she...
There was a kidnapping yesterday!
I'm looking for the criminal. He wore a badge like this!
Please help us!
Oh, Okarin!
Look! Look!
Mayuri...
Good idea, right?
It was Mayushii's idea!
I think everyone might go, "Huh?" when they see this.
Operation name:
Big Victory with Mayushii's Pamphlets!
I think a kidnapping is pushing it, don't you?
What if the police starts looking for us?
Oh, no! Run!
What?
Hey, you guys!
Wait!
I'm sorry.
From now on, ask me about these operations first.
That includes the name.
What are you doing?
Oh, it's Christina.
Good timing.
I heard something pretty serious.
What?
When I went to buy lunch, I overheard the clerks.
Amane's dad might be a kidnapper.
Wh-What?
What's going on?
How's it going?
Something to drink.
If you were awesome, you would've brought me
an ice-cold zero-calorie cola.
Well?
Can we fix the time machine?
Probably by tomorrow.
You worked this whole time, but that's still amazing!
Daru's the real deal.
Even if he looks unhealthy and kind of dim.
Don't judge him by his looks.
Yeah, I've changed my mind about him.
Then you can help me too.
Then, in the steaming-hot confines of the time machine,
we can forget our shame and take off our clothes...
Shut up, pervert!
Daru and Suzu look good together.
They do? How?
I don't really know how to say it...
They just do.
What's up?
Don't worry about it!
Mayuri was just saying something weird.
But if the time machine gets fixed,
I'm worried about Suzu when she rides it!
If it could fit two people, I could go with you...
Why would you go with her?
Why else?
I'd hold Suzu's hand really tight, and I'd say,
"It's okay! Mayushii's with you, so it's okay!"
Hey, I'm saying this because
I don't think I'll ever have the chance to say it again.
What? That's an exaggeration.
I'm really grateful to you all.
When I first came here, I didn't know anyone.
Even though this era is much more peaceful,
somehow, to me, it was really scary...
But now I have lots of friends.
I'm really happy that I could come here...
and that I could spend time with you guys.
I'm glad I had the chance to be a lab member, if only for a little while.
I'm glad I had the chance to spend time with you all...
Suzuha...
Okabe Rintarou!
Change the future...
Make it a free world, like this one!
Suzuha?
Yes?
Hello?
Mad scientist so cool?
The street vendor from this morning?
I remembered...
About the man with that pin badge...
You found her father?
I'll be right there!
Please wait!
