I had fun at Comima this --
You're gonna go back tomorrow, aren't you?
Huh...?
Uh... yeah...
And, you'll be coming back around now?
I think so.
Ooh! You should come with me, Kurisu!
Uh, I dunno. Big crowds really aren't my thing...
But tomorrow's the second day, so it shouldn't be too bad...!
Hey, Okarin! Wanna come... with...?
You--roof. Now!
What the hell's wrong with you?!
Mayuri's been trying to cheer you up ever since you got back!
Could you at least pretend not to be a jackass?
I'm sorry. It's just... the waiting...
God, it's killing me...!
What...?
She isn't dead...
But it's a stay of execution! Nothing more!
I've told you this... over and over again.
What do you mean?
Our D-mails have come at a cost.
Endless
Apoptosis
Mayuri's going to die tomorrow...?!
Short of a miracle... yes...
It used to be Friday the 13th... That night. Every time...
But each D-mail I undo pushes it back a day.
That's why... I have to go with her.
You've thought of a way to save her.
I'm going... to watch her die.
Why?!
It's the only way I can be sure how long
Mayuri's got on this world-line... and once I am...
I'll leap back once last time.
And I'll stop it.
So, the next D-mail...
It was from this Kiryuu Moeka girl, right?
Indeed... And I know what she wrote.
She cautioned her past self against purchasing
a new cell phone.
It'll only work if I send her a new message
from that phone, though.
Then you had better start looking for her.
I'll go with Mayuri to Comima.
What?!
Maybe we'll get lucky and she won't...
I'll be with her and that's gotta count for something!
And what if it doesn't...?!
If I don't find Moeka tomorrow, are you ready to watch her die?!
No! And neither are you!
Okabe... you don't have to bottle this stuff up...
From this moment on,
you and me are in this thing together, okay?
You're right... You've always been right.
Don't you forget it...
'Cause no matter how many world-lines you jump,
that's never gonna change... I've got your back.
Assistant
Too many people here. Way more than I expected. Save me!
Assistant
Now in Ariake
"At Ariake now...
Huge crowd here, worse than I imagined... Save me..."
"No reply from Moeka, but I found out where she works."
"I'll see what they can tell me..."
"Roger. Don't do anything crazy."
Moeka, you said...?
If she's the girl I'm thinking of, she lasted a day or two
and then flaked out. Her address...?
Yeah, I have it... but why should you?
Affirmative.
Excuse me...!
You're saying she... killed herself...?!
Moeka... you're sure that was her name...!
Yes, sir.
When did she die?!
Late last night, more or less.
Body was taken to Third Chiyoda Hospital.
Having trouble with the next of kin, though.
I'm too late...
You feeling all right...?
Suicide...
Think...!
Maybe it was murder...
One of her fellow rounders... But why...?
Damn it, man--it doesn't matter...!
Mayuri... is doomed...
Wait. Another time leap...!
If I can get to Moeka before she dies last night...!
Go ahead.
She... oh god, Okabe... She... she's dead...
Mayuri's dead...!
Time of death... 7:52 p.m...
I should have been with her.
What the hell...! Okabe, you jerk!
Did you eat this pudding?!
Don't look at me like that...!
I wrote "Makise," on here plain as day!
Are you even listening to me?!
"I've got your back... don't you forget it."
You were right... I can't do it alone... Kurisu.
Huh...? did you just... call me by name?
Does the name "Kiryuu Moeka" mean anything to you?
How come... Should it?
Finding her... is now a matter of life-or-death.
What do you mean...?
FB...FB... Write me back... Please...FB...
Did I do something wrong...?
Why won't you respond...? Please... What did I do?
FB...
You and I need to chat.
Everything you asked for, I did...
All of it...
Moeka... Look at me...!
I need you to give me new orders, FB...!
Forget the damn phone...! Hey!
...FB...
...FB... FB... FB... FB... FB...FB... FB...
No...!
No, it's mine!
Let go...! It's... mine!
I'm sorry...
But you started this... when you killed my friend!
Give it back...!
Give it back! Give it back! Give it back! Give it back!
Give it back...!
Okabe Rintarou
Hey, I'm here! You have her phone?!
Just pried it away from her! Everything ready on your end?
We'll all set! Wow, is that her?!
Let her carry on! Where's Mayuri!?
Is she down there?!
Yeah! And the TV is definitely on! I can hear it!
Texting now...!
Kurisu!
Change your phone. It will sell out soon, and you won't be able to get one.
Fire it up--now!
I'm on it!
Give it back!
This is it... The last one.
One message left to go... and she lives...!
Give it back...! Give it back...!
Gimme back my phone...
Hold on... Why am I still here?
Problem!
It didn't work?!
Are you sure it was on?!
Did it light up like before?!
There was arcing all over the place...! What happened?
My whole Reading Steiner thing never kicked in!
Huh?!
I'm still on the same world-line as a moment ago.
Why'd it fail?
Give it back!
Aw, come on! You share this building with other people ...!
Give it back!
Why the hell isn't it working?!
The process isn't exact-- we just send new texts,
we don't know how they're received...!
What if your message just wasn't convincing enough
to keep her from buying that new phone?!
How'm I supposed to convince her?!
You're right. It's the same one...!
It's the same phone she messaged her past self not to buy!
That's gotta be it, then!
We just need to figure out a better text!
"I got this cell phone four days ago, but I don't like it...
So I want to tell the past me not to buy it."
What if the message she showed us wasn't the one that she sent?
Are you telling me we have no idea what she wrote to herself?!
Whatever she wrote, there should still be a copy...!
I'm checking for it now!
Give it back...! Give it back!
What's going on, Okabe...?! Talk to me!
I'll call you right back!
Enough with the shouting! Give it a rest, for cryin' out loud!
Give it to me!
Gimmie back my phoooone!
Gimmie the phone! It's mine!
Calm... down...!
Guess I better check it out...
I...
The hell're you--?
You should be ashamed, goin' at it with the door wide open...
The hell is wrong with people?
What can I do...?
What can I do... to make you give it back?
Do you remember sending yourself a D-mail...?
What...? I don't... I...
You, got a message...
A very strange one, two weeks ago... From your future self.
How'd you know...?
Tell me what it said...
and you get your phone back...!
Must've been something important, right...?!
The IBN 5100, perhaps...
a meet-up with your gun-toting thugs?!
Tell me what it said!
I know it's gotta be something like that--
it's written on your damn face!
I'll break it--I swear to god I will!
I'll never betray them.
"Them" who?!
FB, Moeka?
My life... is empty without FB...
FB gives me guidance... purpose...
"Purpose"?! So FB's calling the shots...?!
You're not going to tell me...
Because you're such a loyal little foot-soldier...
Even now... when it's obvious that your precious FB
doesn't give a good goddamn about you!
You've been written off! FB has abandoned you!
I'm not gonna fall for your lies...!
But they don't write back, do they...?!
And you know why that's happening......?!
They don't need you anymore!
No!
FB would never just throw me away!
I was lost... FB... rescued me...
...in Cabinet Office...
"Rescued you?"... They condemned you...!
Rounder Recruitment
Ask me why I would say something like that... Go ahead...!
FB is like... is like a mother to me...
A Question
What sort of work would I have to do?
Re: A Question
I possess a text-based time machine...
You messaged yourself from the future with it!
Another Question
Even work I could do?
Re: Another Question
Of course. We offer everyone the job that best suits them.
FB... made me feel so needed...
I've never had a job before. I don't have any skills, either.
It's okay.
Let's do our best together.
You wanna know how your FB fairy-tale ends...?!
'Course you do...!
You ready...?
You die... Four days from now, you take your own life.
Huh...?
You sit here waiting for a text that never comes...
and then you kill yourself, here in the dark!
That's a lie.
You know in your heart
that you are never going to hear from FB again, Moeka...
It's torture, isn't it...? Worse than death!
Stop it...!
When's the last time they responded...? Huh?!
Poor, patient Moeka... abandoned yet again...!
You're going to die, Moeka...! Right here...!
No...!
You're going to murder yourself,
surrounded by darkness!
No...
You know what your grand reward is for killing Mayuri?!
You die like a stray mutt!
Forgotten until they trip over your corpse!
FB--!
FB won't help!
All it would take is a single text, right?!
But they don't care!
Nooooo!
I'm sorry...
I assume FB is a woman...
You did say before they were like a mother to you.
I guess...
You guess?
We've never met in real life...
I don't ever wanna...
What's the point......?
I'm sure she would hate me...
You've never even spoken on the phone
with each other before, have you...
Why are you so committed to this woman?!
She made me feel like... I belonged...
What and that's all?
You're a fool...! So did we...!
The retro-PC is
in Yanabayashi Shrine.
Recover it immediately.
Okabe?!
You call that "calling me right back"?!
What's the matter...? Were you worried about me?
No...! Maybe.
Oh. I'm sorry.
What'd you learn?
Wait, so... the IBN 5100 was stolen by...
Moeka, yeah.
Well, where is it right now?!
I wish I could tell you...
It won't matter anyway after we undo her message.
The new one's going back to 11 a.m. on July 31st.
Don't go to the shrine.
It's a trap. It isn't there!
It's activated!
This should do it...
Not again...!
What?
It didn't work!
So, the message is about the right thing,
but the past her didn't believe it?
I'll prep the Phone Wave and you can send her another!
She'll have to believe one sooner or later, right...?!
No...
There's only one person who Moeka is going to believe.
If she gets a D-mail from that particular number...
she'll obey in a heartbeat.
Who is it...?!
I'm going out to find FB.
I don't suppose that you have any leads.
Not that you would tell me, anyway.
When you were yelling...
you told me that I killed somebody... Will that happen?
Yes... Would you, if FB asked?
Without question... I would.
Even if you knew she was about to throw you away?!
Because that is exactly what happens...!
And then you cave in under the despair!
Four days from now, you're going to commit suicide...
Deny it all you want, but that's what's fated to happen...!
There's no escape!
Luckily... I don't leave things to fate anymore.
I've fought against it far too long!
I'll keep fighting... until Mayuri is safe!

At the Dai Building...
The computer is inside one of them...
