Endless time loops. Endlessly turning her shield for another chance. How long has Kanade been through this same month? How long has Kanade been stuck in this endless labyrinth, trying to save you? Trying to change your fate, even though it was all pointless? How many times has she seen you die?

Ever since that first timeline .. you were Kanade’s first real friend. The first girl Kanade could rely on. The only girl.

“ the truth is .. I’m from the future. I’ve met you over, and over .. and everything, in every time .. I’ve had to watch you die .. what do I have to do to save you ? What do I have to do to change your fate ? I keep doing this month over again, searching for the answer .. “
