Episode 1 Recap
This episode starts with an AI explaining the modern world is integrated based on the data it gets fed with. It all changed after a certain incident that took place between three friends.
Shuuta, Ran, and Kouki tried to save their friend, Asumi, from a fire outbreak at a school.
Asumi lost her life in the incident and caused a turn of events. A year has passed since then, and the trio meets up at the one-year anniversary ceremony of the incident. They get dinner with Maririn after the ceremony.
As they enjoy a meal together, the trio talk about their life situations. When they try to dig in the meal, the three of them simultaneously get a call from Asumi. When the trio picks the call up, they get jolted with a special power.
Asumi gives them a vision that a runaway train will hit someone stuck in the tracks. She asks them what choice will they make in the situation. Will they save the passengers or save the one person stuck and states to choose the future?
Shuuta, Ran, and Kouki find the call odd, but they go to pay their respects at Asumi’s memorial. On their way, they realize there’s an opening ceremony for the Kizuna Train, and the vision specifically showed Maririn stuck on the tracks. Kouki tells Ran to find Maririn’s location.
Ran reveals that Maririn is at Nijimi Station. Maririn loses her dog in the station and goes after it to the tracks, and gets stuck with the dog. Shuuta goes ahead and makes a run towards the track and stays connected with Ran and Kouki.
As the trio makes their way to save Maririn, they notice an increase in their abilities and lighter physique. The three accordingly play their part to set the scenario right to save both the passengers and Maririn.
Ran uses his hacking skills to activate the train’s brake system, and Kouki chooses to let the mayor, his father, know what needs to be done. After they both do their part, they tell Shuuta to handle the rest. With the new power, Shuuta catches up with the train.
Even after a moment of doubt from the incident a year ago, Shuuta pushes through and saves Maririn. With the situation handled, Shuuta, Ran, and Kouki pay their respects to Asumi. Shuuta thinks Asumi is alive but Ran and Kouki think otherwise.
