Ep. 22: Rintaro uses D-RINE to delete Amadeus Kurisu data and stop Russian interference with the time machine.
Aired on September 20, 2018
After repeated failures to save Mayuri and Suzuha, Rintaro concludes that preventing Russian interference with the time machine's departure is essential. He identifies that Russia's time travel capability depends on Kurisu's memory data within the Amadeus system. To counter this, Rintaro plans to use Daru's D-RINE application to send a D-Mail to his past self, instructing him to delete the Amadeus data. During a night-long conversation, Amadeus Kurisu expresses her willingness to sacrifice herself to help Rintaro find Steins;Gate. Following her final goodbyes, the message is transmitted, erasing Amadeus and shifting Rintaro to a new world line.
