 * Attractor fields theory & Reading Steiner
 * The attractor fields theory is a theory explaining the structure of the world in terms of world lines and world line convergence ranges (attractor fields). The premise is that the world is not one of countless parallel worlds. No more than a single world line exists, and on that world line all events from the past to the future are determined. In other words, as long as the world line determines that “Mayuri dies”, Mayuri will die. This is a world line convergence. However, the world line is constantly fluctuating, and one may be transferred to another world line for some reason. On that world line, a possibility that “Mayuri's death” has not been determined is born. However, the moment a world line is transferred to another, the original world line disappears and nothing but the new world line exists, so ordinary humans cannot perceive this world line fluctuation. World lines other than the current world line exist only as possibilities, and bundles of similar world lines among these possible world lines are called α (Alpha) world lines, or β (Beta) world lines. These are original settings, created by the ingenuity of the production team.

The VGL Locking System & Divergence Meter's Settings
An important aspect of John Titor's time travel is the ability to control the time machine to prevent it from being thrown out into an unknown space-time environment. This is done by the VGL (Variable Gravity Lock) locking system installed in the time machine. Before time travel, a basic reading of local gravity is performed, and the local gravity's sine wave is locked in place. The VGL locking system receives information from the on-board cesium clock and gravity sensors to perform precise calculations and bring the time machine to the desired location.

The Divergence Meter that Okabe had in this work has a backstory that it is based on Titor's time travel theory. The future Okabe performs a basic reading of local gravity, then this data is stored in the Divergence Meter. After time travel, the Divergence Meter generates and controls a local gravity's sine wave to reproduce the Kerr Black Hole theory. The gravitational distortion device examines the observed variables, creates a sample of the local gravity, and converts the difference into a fluctuation rate, which is finally quantified.

The Committee of 300 & Dystopia
In this work, a dystopia has been established in the future of the α (Alpha) world lines. Dystopia is the antonym of utopia; it is a society with extreme control and no individual freedom. The term became famous when it appeared in The Time Machine by H. G. Wells, the father of science fiction. You could thereby say that the usage of the word "dystopia" pays full homage to The Time Machine.

Also appearing in this work is the Committee of 300, an organization of secret societies described in conspiracy theories. Some conspiracy theorists believe that the Committee of 300 is composed of Satanists called the Illuminati. Those theorists also suspect that the Committee of 300 is plotting to suppress science and technology as well as promoting the Human Domestication Project in order to achieve a deindustrialized, zero-growth society. This imagined society is very similar to the future of the α world lines depicted in this work.

Incidentally, ECHELON is said to be a large-scale communications interception system built mainly in the United States of America. Although not publicly acknowledged, a report was issued by the European Parliament in 2001, stating that “there is no doubt that a worldwide interception system exists.”
