The great revival of Yuri Kosaka

However, the authors of "Weekly Shonen Jump" are basically all full-time authors. They do not need to go to school like Yuri Kosaka, and the time allocation is different.

Therefore, Minano Matoi has always been amazed at Yuri Kosaka's ability to never delay the submission of manuscripts on time during the serialization period of more than two years.

But it will be different if "Young Gongon" is added.

"Youth Gongon" is a bimonthly magazine. Although there is no explicit regulation, the average bimonthly publication is more than 24 pages, and a month is 48 pages.

This means,

If Yuri Kosaka really wants to serialize it in "Young Gongon", his workload will instantly increase beyond that of a normal jump author.

As far as Minano Matoi knows, Kosaka Yuri has not even hired an assistant so far, and he is the only one who picks up the manuscript every time.

"I probably know what you want to say. You probably think it will be easier to accumulate popularity through simultaneous serialization of anime and manga, but you also have to consider your ability to bear it. Besides, Suzumiya's popularity is still rising sharply, so there is no need to be so... Worry, you are still so young, you don't need to work so hard." Minano persuaded her earnestly. She really didn't think it was necessary. A talented cartoonist like Yuri Kosaka had no reason to work so hard, so he could just do it step by step. .

"Speaking of which, it seems that you haven't seen the original drawing of mine with your own eyes. Anyway, let's take a look at it first." Yuri Kosaka has known Minano Matoi for so long, and he has never once shown his painting skills, which made her feel like this. Concerns are normal.

So he decided not to fish or use a machine today, but to draw a few pictures for her to see. As long as she saw his drawing speed, she would definitely change her mind.

So, he took a few pieces of paper, a pen, and ink from the drawer on the side.

"Now is not the time to do this kind of thing. You should really think about it again... How is it possible?!" When Minano Matoi was about to say something else, Kosaka Yuri's hands moved. There was no draft in one go. The scene that instantly sketched out the characters forced what Minano Matoi wanted to say back into his mouth.

"It's unbelievable... This kind of speed, this kind of precision, it's simply not a field that humans can set foot on." Because the main goal was accomplished, Ogasawara Riko, who was only listening on the sidelines, was also surprised by this miraculous speed. , she could not imagine that there was such a way of painting in this world.

"When you submitted the manuscript before, I had a vague feeling that you could draw very quickly, but I didn't expect it to be to this extent...Okay, I will submit this matter to "Youth Gongon"." Silently in the living room Seeing Yuri Kosaka draw three pages of Suzumiya's manuscript in a row, Minano Matoi had to surrender. He had never heard of such an outrageous drawing speed, let alone seen it.

At this speed, Yuri Kosaka might not be able to serialize another one, but he might still be able to serialize 3 or 4 volumes.

"Does that mean it's done?" "With your current reputation, I don't think this will be rejected, and serializing animations and comics together can indeed increase your popularity. I was worried that you would be too tired. "No, I didn't expect..." Minano shook her head. If she hadn't seen this monster-like painting speed with her own eyes, she felt that few practitioners would believe it.

"It's like seeing an urban legend, Yuri-sensei, you are really amazing." Ogasawara Riko, who originally came to discuss business, watched Yuri Kousaka's paintings with Minano Matoi in the living room.

The tone of his speech was much more respectful, and facing Yuri Kosaka was like facing the top senior in the industry.

Chapter 54 Only then can we call ourselves healthy

"Dudulu, good morning Yuri." "Good morning Mayuri too." "Hey, Yuri, I heard from Okarun that the lab will be animated soon?" Stepping into the door of the lab Just as Yuri Kosaka said hello to Mayuri Shiina, Hashida Zhi next to him walked over and asked in a rather uncertain tone.

"Because something like this happened, I pushed it forward as if I were making up the numbers." "Does that mean it's true? Our lab will be made into an animation? The kind that will be played on TV?" "Really, Really, it will be broadcast on the TV station after the Golden Week." "There is no sense of reality at all..." Hashida asked several questions in a row, and after receiving a slightly perfunctory answer from Yuri Kosaka, he seemed a little Trance-like.

"Weren't you very happy when I asked you before? Why is it really going to be animated but it looks like this?" "Because you haven't revealed anything. You don't know anything about the plot except that you said there will be a time machine, and you It was said that people from the lab will appear, does that mean I will appear? Then it is natural to be a little nervous." "Wouldn't it be more immersive to watch the live broadcast of the plot, etc. Now that I have said it, it probably doesn't mean much. Okay." "That's what I'm saying... Oh, by the way, Yuri, you can make me more handsome in the work. Since time travel is definitely a science fiction work, it is reasonable to be a little different from reality. Yes." "I submitted the script yesterday, and it was said to be the story of the lab. You can be the core role of the lab." "Eh? I am the core role, and I am a little shy..." "Speaking of which, where is the Dark Souls I gave you earlier? Have you finished it?" After chatting for a while, Yuri Kosaka found that although the PS3 was still placed in front of the TV, there seemed to be no sign of starting up. Hashida was so enthusiastic about it before. I'm not playing Dark Souls right now.

"Well... something happened after that, so I haven't finished the level yet." "Dudulu, Mayushi knows that Tongzi has been flipping the disc recently and not playing the game at all." "Eh.

, are you trying to crack that CD? Didn’t you say before that you will try it after you finish cracking it? " Yuri Kosaka walked to Hashida Zhi's computer and took a look at his computer display. He found that his screen was filled with a lot of codes of unknown meaning. There was also something like a recorder on the side, and some There are so many messy lines that I don’t even know where to connect them.

It looked like she was studying the disc just as Mayuri Shiina said.

"That's what I thought at first, but I was a little tired after beating the Minotaur, so I wanted to try to look at the source code of this game, and then..." Hashida looked a little embarrassed. look.

Initially, he did start Dark Souls from Yuri Kosaka just to play the game, and the game itself really made him interesting.

However, after playing for some time and feeling a little tired from playing, he chose to browse the data code of the disc during the break to see what was inside.

And this sight immediately inspired his super hacker soul.

It is true that Dark Souls is quite interesting, and under normal circumstances he would definitely choose to clear it directly.

However, after seeing those extremely weird data codes, the burning hacker soul made him start to study the mysteries of the disc itself, rather than the game itself.

"In other words, apart from the initial time you played, you spent the rest of the time just messing around and not playing?" "You have played it to some extent, but it was mainly to test the working principle of the code. The conclusion is... It depends entirely on I don’t understand.” Hashida Zhi looked like he had a headache.

Although he said he couldn't understand it, it didn't mean he couldn't understand it at all. He just couldn't understand a lot of the data, because normally based on the data he parsed, it would be impossible for such code to work.

But the CD does run, and it is very smooth, and it can really run on both the computer and the host.

He wanted to find out what secrets were hidden in it, but after working hard for many days without much success, he already wanted to give up.

"Excuse me...Ah." At this moment, Kurisu Makise walked in from the door and was stunned for a moment when she saw Yuri Kosaka in the room.

"What are you doing at the door? Assistant, why don't you get out of the way quickly... Hey, Yuri is here too, huh, to be stunned by such a trivial matter, do you think you are Christina like this?" "So, I am not your assistant and I am not Christina. How many times do you want me to say it? Alas, I don't want to quarrel with you now... You must have been the one who called me yesterday." How many times have I been in the lab? God, Makise Kurisu has almost understood what kind of person Okabe Rintaro is and has no interest in arguing with him now.

"Yes, it's me. I really thank you for yesterday. Otherwise, the script may have to be changed a lot. In that case, I'm not sure whether it can be handed over as scheduled." "To be honest, I still don't understand why I need to make a prototype. , after all, you can just create any character in the animation work." "It would be more realistic if you have a prototype, and there is really not enough time." "Time... Speaking of which, there is no specific report in the news. Situation, what is the current situation of Musashino Animation, is anyone injured?" The main reason why Makise Kurisu agreed is actually because of this. She herself is also a deeply hidden otaku, and she is a frequent visitor to @ch, recommending He is a special person. He also watched Musashino animation works when he was a child, and he really doesn’t want him to disappear.

"There are no casualties, but almost all the data of their company's original works in this period have been scrapped, and there is no way to save it." "It is a blessing that there are no casualties, but it is really hard for me to imagine that you are actually A professional cartoonist, and the author of Suzumiya." Regarding Yuri Kosaka, she had already asked Rintaro Okabe about it after the phone call yesterday, and she knew something about the situation.

"Wait a minute, does that mean our lab will be exposed to the whole world starting next week?" While Yuri Kosaka and Kurisu Makise were chatting, Rintaro Okabe suddenly interrupted as if he had thought of something.

"It will indeed be like that." Yuri Kosaka, who didn't know why Okabe Rintaro said this, said.

"Then let's hold a banquet, a banquet where everyone can get to know us!" "Dudulu, Mayuji thinks it's very good." "For Oka Lun, it's a good suggestion." "A banquet? With your His personality is probably a stingy one, but it would be nice to have some fun." "If you want to do it, how about setting the time on the day when the animation is broadcast, and start when the animation is stuck, and watch the animation while having fun." "That's a good suggestion." "Then it's decided!"

Chapter 55 Preparation before viewing

"Excuse me." "I'm sorry too." "Oh, this is the Fang family and the Jing family, long time no see~~" Today's lab is much more lively than before. If you want to say why, it's because today is the so-called lab's animation. The day it was broadcast was also the day Okabe Rintaro proposed a banquet.

More than a week passes faster than most people think, and it goes by in the blink of an eye.

"

I heard that there is a banquet, but I don’t know what kind of banquet it is. I only brought a few okonomiyaki. Is it okay? "Jing Ke is really good. He brought something with him even though he was just here to play. He is really polite." "Wait, you didn't bring it. What's in that bag in your hand?" " "this?These are just a few meat buns I bought on the way here. Do you want to eat them? "I don't want it. Why are they meat buns? It doesn't fit the atmosphere here at all." "Because there is a banquet, the interior decoration of the lab today is more colorful than usual, as well as some colorful balloons.

There are also some fruit drinks and some snacks such as potato chips and biscuits on the table, but there are no staple foods yet.

"Speaking of which, why didn't the boss come this time? He's obviously called her." "I can't help it. She flew low in this small test and was left to take tutoring. She's obviously been working hard, so why is her result like this?" I can't go up." "Because they are sisters, they might be absorbed by the mirror." "What did you say?!" "Wow, that's scary!" "This is the Fang family and the Jing family. It's the first time we meet. I'm Makise Kurisu, I have been a frequent visitor to this lab recently, please give me some advice." Hearing the movements of Izumi and Hiiragi, Makise Kurisu, who was putting disposable cups on the side one by one, came forward and said hello. .

"Hmm~ Please give me some advice." "I just come here to play occasionally. Don't pay too much attention to me. What about those two guys Yuri and Okabe? Why can't we see them even though we are here?" The lab room is actually It's quite big. There is a room for storing sundries behind the big living room in the middle, as well as a bathroom and toilet, so Hiiragi wasn't sure whether they were there or not when he first came in.

But after talking for a while, there was absolutely no movement inside, and it was almost certain that the two people were no longer in the lab.

"I was there not long ago, but Okarun was too stingy and refused to buy too many things. Then Yuri said he could buy it, but the party was proposed by Okarun, so at least Okarun had to move the things, so We went out together." "We're shopping, so what should we do now?" "Sit anywhere, they will definitely come back before the animation starts." "Animation...that Yuri guy at the beginning When he invited me on the grounds that the lab was going to be animated, I was still thinking about what he was talking about, but I didn't expect that it would actually be broadcast on TV." Hiiragi was actually quite surprised. She didn't come to this lab many times. I thought I would be invited suddenly, but what surprised me the most was the reason for the invitation.

Because the lab is going to be animated, coming over to have a banquet is not a normal reason to have a dinner together.

"I knew about this a few days ago, because Mr. Okabe's face appeared in the trailer released by the TV station. To be honest, I was quite surprised." Izumi Honokata on the side was a little surprised, but There aren’t many surprises either.

"Yuri said that watching live broadcasts will be more surprising, so I didn't pay attention at all. Can Fang tell me what's in the trailer?" "There's nothing. The information is blocked very thoroughly. There's only one picture depicting Okabe. The teaser picture of Yuri and Akihabara background, but because the producer is SBL company, there are actually high expectations on the Internet." "Hmm... It's normal. I heard Yuri's intention this time seems to be an accident of another animation company. So it was done in a hurry. I hope the quality of the animation will not be reduced too much." "Hey! Tongzi, come here and help." "Dudulu, Mayuri can also help!" "Mayuri is not very strong, so don't get involved. Hey, bucket, come down quickly." Just as Hashida and Izumi were chatting, Okabe Rintaro's voice suddenly came from below. It seemed that he had bought something back, and Shiina Mayuri seemed to be there too. look like.

"Come on, come on, don't rush me. Really, what did you buy? Do you want my help?" Being urged by Rintaro Okabe, Hashida Shiya could only walk on helplessly.

"Wow, there are so many. How many did you buy?" "How did I know that this guy Yuri kept buying heavy items and really didn't help me pick them up during the whole process." "These are all paid by Yuri. It's money, and that's what we said at the beginning. I think it's Oka who can't carry it." "Don't be wordy, take these up. Hey, there are drinks in glass bottles in that bag. Be careful. ." "Okay, okay~~" Okabe Rintaro was holding 4 or 5 large bags in his hands, each bag filled with a bunch of things. He handed the two in his right hand to Hashida Shige, Take the rest and get ready to go up.

As for Kosaka Yuri, as he said himself, he just buys and doesn't take them, and distributes them reasonably.

"It's too much. Can we really eat all this food?" After Okabe Rintaro and Hashida Zhi brought the things into the lab, Makise Kurisu asked in surprise.

Most of these bags contained packaged cooked food, as well as some drinks and scattered snacks. She suspected that she might not finish half of them by the end.

"Hmph, there's no problem. If you can't solve it in the end, you can throw it to Mr.'s picture tube and use it as feed for him. That person will definitely be able to eat as much as he wants." "Gang

Lun, if you said this to him in person, you would definitely be killed by him. "Ahaha, Tongzi, you are so stupid, that's why I said it in the lab." "It's almost play time." "That's right. Take out the things and put them on the table. Let's look at them and eat them later." "'Ding' While everyone was busy preparing, Kosaka Yuri's cell phone rang with an email tone.

'I beat my friend in the online game today and I'm in a very good mood. Do you want to play with me next time? 'The person who sent the email was Luna Sakurakoji, whom he met before. Recently, the other party would send him some emails from time to time, and the contents were quite daily. However, he did not expect that such a young lady would like to play online games, which surprised Yuri Kosaka. .

'I don't play online games that much. I prefer stand-alone games. By the way, Dark Souls, which was released some time ago, can be considered my work. You can try that one. ' After thinking about editing a paragraph, Kosaka Yuri chose to send it.

"Oh oh oh, it's started, it's started!" Just after he chose to send the email, Okabe Rintaro's voice sounded from the TV, causing everyone to turn their attention to the TV. "

Chapter 56 Steins;Gate animation playback

'Although the universe has a beginning, it has no end, it is infinite. ' 'Although the stars have a beginning, they will gradually fade away due to their own power and are limited. ' 'Things with wisdom are the most stupid. This can be known from history. This can be said to be the final notice given by the gods to the rebels. ' What was shown on the TV was a very montage animation. It started with a black screen of unknown meaning, and then a blurry screen like an old-fashioned TV.

What follows is a flashback to various street locations, interspersed with various unexplained clips of butterflies, trees, film, and more wires.

But more than the picture, what surprised the people in the lab the most was the voice of the monologue. No matter how they listened, they could only hear the voice of Okabe Rintaro.

"Oka Lun?! Have you ever dubbed a voice?" "How is that possible? Do you think I would do such a thing?" "That's true, but it sounds like it's Ok Lun's voice no matter what." Suddenly from the TV Even Okabe Rintaro was a little shocked when he heard his own voice. It was not that he objected, but that he could not understand why the voice actor of this animation could make the same voice as himself.

"There have always been many mysteries surrounding SBL. Since Suzumiya, many people have speculated that they have mastered some kind of advanced sound synthesis technology." "Sound synthesis technology? Real or fake?" "Conspiracy theories on the Internet, baseless. It is speculated that the main reason is that they have not announced the voice actor since the Suzumiya period, and now they can still adjust the same voice as Okabe, maybe it is really possible." 'Okaru' Before they could continue to discuss more, TV Okabe Rentaro's short monologue ended, and another familiar voice came from the TV.

"Wow wow wow, it's Mayuji, it's Mayuji's voice!" But this time, it was Mayuri Shiina who reacted. She looked at herself on the TV with her eyes wide open, and looked at herself on the TV facing Oka. Taro Burenta said hello.

"It's not just Okarun, but also Mayuji's voice. Ah, in that case, it's also mine?! This is too high-tech." After listening to the voices of the two people on the TV, Hashida realized Maybe all the people appearing are their own original voices.

'Let's go' Rintaro Okabe on the TV certainly couldn't hear the voices of the audience outside the TV, and was preparing to leave with Mayuri Shiina as per the script.

At this time, Mayuri Shiina on the TV made an action of reaching up to the sky, and the camera even gave a special close-up.

"What is this action?" Rintaro Okabe looked quite surprised when he saw Mayuri Shiina's action on TV. He even glanced at Mayuri Shiina in real life for a moment, but immediately turned his gaze back.

'Let's sneak into the venue now, el psy congroo' Rintaro Okabe on TV took Mayuri Shiina into the Rajio Hall in Akihabara, and it happened that this Rajio Hall was holding a press conference.

'The time machine is so powerful. ' When the screen moved to the press conference venue, it read Dr. Nakahata's Commemorative Meeting for the Successful Invention of the Time Machine, and this title aroused a burst of admiration from Mayuri Shiina.

"Dr. Nakahachi?" This time, it was Makise Kurisu's turn to be confused. She frowned and muttered the name Dr. Nakahachi for a long time, always feeling like she had heard it somewhere.

'Earthquake, no, up there? ' But the next moment, something seemed to have happened in the Rajio Hall on TV. The camera switched and Okabe Rintaro ran from the venue to the top floor following the sound.

The unfolding of the plot disrupted Makise Kurisu's thoughts, causing her to give up thinking and focus on the picture being played.

And there, there was a strange machine and a woman who looked like a staff member. The woman crossed her arms and signaled Okabe Rintaro not to enter.

At the same time, Okabe Rintaro's cell phone began to vibrate.

"Is that a time machine?" Hashida said with some uncertainty when he saw the strange device on the house.

"Probably not, didn't the time machine in the painting Yuri painted before be smashed into the Rajio Hall?" "But the plot so far looks so real. I feel like it would be real if it were Okarun and Mayuri. It's like someone else would do this." "Uncanny Valley effect?" "It doesn't seem to be this, right?" "Let's watch it first and then talk about it after finishing it." "Same." Although the beginning has only been played, such an opening already has a huge impact. amount of information.

Especially Rintaro Okabe and Mayuri Shiina in the plot. Except for this fact that did not happen in reality, their conversations and behaviors are the same as their usual counterparts. The degree of restoration is incredibly high.

'Metal, metal upa! ' 'Is this a rare breed? ' 'Well, very rare. ' 'That's it for you. ’ Following the plot just now, after Rintaro Okabe left from the top floor, he helped Mayuri Shiina transfer a metal upa from the gashapon machine, and then gave the metal upa to her.

"What is Upa? It looks so cute." Seeing the Upa on TV, Shiina Mayuri asked curiously.

"Huh? Doesn't that doll exist in reality?" "Ah, that, that is a very popular anime peripheral in the plot setting." There is really no Upa in this world, and there is no animation derived from Upa, so It can be regarded as the peripheral works of the drama within the drama.

After the explanation, the screen transitioned, and Rintaro Okabe on the screen had already begun to attend Dr. Nakahachi's press conference.

At the beginning, Rintaro Okabe participated normally in the plot, until he started reading Dr. Nakahachi's thesis.

'PhD! ! ! ' 'What's wrong, so sudden. ' 'What's wrong? What's your time machine theory, Kerr black hole, world line, aren't they all plagiarized from John Tito! ' 'Tito claimed that he had time travel and published this theory on the Internet. Don't tell me you don't know. 'Rintaro Okabe seemed quite angry, mainly because he believed that Dr. Nakahachi's theory was completely plagiarized from others and had absolutely nothing of his own.

"John Tito?" "Isn't that a famous time traveler in reality? He has an entry on Wikipedia." "I've heard of this name too." "Zhongbo... Wait a minute. , could it be?!" While everyone in front of the TV was discussing John Tito who suddenly popped up, only Makise Kurisu was still mumbling the name of Dr. Nakahachi.

Then he paused suddenly, with an incredible guess in his mind.

Chapter 57 My Father Zhongbo

"What's wrong, Makise-san, have you heard of Dr. Nakahachi? Okarun, do you know?" Hashida Zhi, who was on the side, heard what Makise Kurisu whispered, and he was slightly confused as he had no idea who Dr. Nakahachi was. asked Rintaro Okabe.

"I've never heard of it at all. Could it be that this uncle also has a real-life prototype?" Okabe Rintaro turned around in his mind, making sure that he had the corresponding character in his memory bank.

"Ah, it's not a famous person, but I suddenly remembered that my father also seems to have the surname Zhongbo." "Christina's... father?" "Don't think too much, in fact, I have never met my father at all. I know that he divorced my mother when I was very young, and then passed away unexpectedly. I only learned his name accidentally from my mother a few years ago." "Uh, what about that, Christina, you have to express your condolences. "After listening to Makise Kurisu's brief story, Okabe Rintaro hesitated for a moment, thinking about whether he should comfort the other person.

"There is no need to sympathize with me. I have never seen him before, so there is nothing sad about it... Speaking of which, why is there a person with the same surname as my father in the story? Don't tell me that he is my dead father. ?!" "Well, this is indeed the setting, but I would like to state in advance that due to the rush of work, in addition to the protagonist role, many supporting character settings were given by SBL Company, so I don't know where they got the information. ." Kosaka Yuri started telling lies again with his eyes open.

But it’s not a complete lie, because this is a setting he once knew, but the world after traveling is a mixed bag, and many details are different. It can only be regarded as a reference, so it is said to be based on the setting given by others. Not entirely wrong.

"Sure enough, there are many mysteries about the SBL company." "Perhaps he went to investigate after learning about the Makise family?" "That feels strange. Does it usually get to this point?" "This feels like it's not The dark side that can be touched." "You mean... the members of SBL are all Sith?" "That's it, maybe their chairman was a slave in his early years!" "Hey, you are getting more and more biased. "'I said you...' Just when everyone's topic began to drift away, Okabe Ren

The argument between Taro and Dr. Nakahachi was forcibly interrupted. Makise Kurisu's voice came from the screen, causing everyone to turn their attention to the plot of the TV again. "Christina is here... Hey, what are you doing as an assistant?" ! " Makise Kurisu in the plot grabbed Okabe Rintaro's shoulders during the debate and forcibly took him away from Dr. Nakahabachi's press conference, causing the real Okabe Rintaro to yell.

"Calm down, this is the plot, don't be so excited." Kurisu Makise, who was yelled at by Rintaro Okabe because of the story even though she did nothing, suddenly felt a headache.

'Who are you? ! ' Rintaro Okabe, who was forcibly taken away by Makise Kurisu in the plot, looked quite surprised. He could not understand why he was taken away from the venue by Makise Kurisu.

'This is what I want to ask. Just now, what did you want to say to me? ' 'just? ' 'About 15 minutes ago. ' Makise Kurisu's words made Okabe Rintaro quite confused. He seemed to be completely unable to understand what Makise Kurisu was talking about, and he looked confused.

'You are Makise... Kurisu, the one who published a paper in a scientific magazine before? ' But immediately, Makise Kurisu's face reminded Okabe Rintaro of something, and he said somewhat uncertainly.

"Huh? Assistant, have you published a paper in a scientific magazine?" Seeing this paragraph, Rintaro Okabe in real life asked with some doubts. Makise Kurisu does give people the feeling of a researcher. Is it true? Not surprising either.

"No, I mentioned it before. It was only reported in a few magazines. Why would you add this setting to me?" Maybe it's because of the difference in world lines. Anyway, Makise in reality Kurisu seems to be just an ordinary researcher at the moment, at least not as famous as Makise Kurisu in the plot.

'Are you a spy sent by the 'organization'? ' 'Government, what are you talking about? ' "Wow, every time I see Oka Lun's chuuni posture, my hair will stand up." "Me too, especially seeing this scene on TV, this is really terrible, there is no need to be like this in this kind of place Let's restore it." In the plot, Rintaro Okabe's performance as a junior high school student made several people feel embarrassed and began to complain mercilessly.

'It will save you trouble if you know what I say. About 15 minutes ago, you wanted to say something to me, with a very melancholy expression on your face. ' Makise Kurisu's expression was very complicated when she said this. Maybe Rintaro Okabe left a too deep impression on her.

'? ' However, the other party's words made Okabe Rintaro very confused. He couldn't understand what Makise Kurisu meant.

"Time travel is here!" "This is definitely a foreshadowing of time travel, I can guarantee it." "This kind of lines and this kind of reaction can only be time travel." "In other words, Oka Lun has traveled from the future to the present. Did you meet the Makise family 15 minutes ago?" "Don't you think it's too fast? The foreshadowing of time travel is exposed so early." "If you put it that way, it does seem a bit fast. It's only the first episode." Initially It wasn't obvious during the conversation, but in this second conversation, everyone sitting in front of the lab TV and watching was almost certain that this must be important foreshadowing.

However, it actually feels a bit cheating for them to think so, mainly because Yuri Kosaka has said many times that this is a time travel theme, which is considered to be a little revealed by the spoilers.

If they suddenly saw this paragraph without any spoilers and unclear main plot, they might not think so deeply.

The plot continues. Rintaro Okabe, who fled in panic from Makise Kurisu, received a confusing video of unknown meaning.

Then, Mayuri Shiina suddenly appeared and learned that her metal Upa was missing.
