In the first episode of the anime, kurisu really is dead, it was in beta attractor field worldline, probably just like what happened in episode 23, Okabe stabbed her. Seeing that dead body of her triggers okabe to send a mail to daru which turned into a D-mail, causing him to jump to alpha attractor field worldline. And then later when he was about to attend a lecture in ATF he met kurisu alive and well. Thus that is the beginning of his "important 3 weeks of his life".

In the true ending route, okabe has to remade this scene and fool his past self (who attended nakabachi's presentation), made him think that kurisu died while she was not, because if he did not fool his past self, he might deny his 3 weeks spent with kurisu and the other labmems in the alpha worldline, he must not undo it.

The conflict he had when he see Kurisu is alive and well, when a few hours before he saw her dead on a pool of blood, is what started their relation on alpha attractor field worldline. Undoing those will cause a future where okabe didn't surprise and called kurisu a ghost / zombie / etc, and it will also undo the moment kurisu joined the lab and forward, kurisu and okabe will not know each other.

That memories within those weeks, the memories of hope and dreams that was denied just to save Mayuri, the memories of Kurisu helping him in each worldline he jumped in, and the memories of him confessing his feeling to Kurisu because he knew after cracking SERN's server he wouldn't be able to touch her again, is what triggers okabe, even the okabe in S;G zero, to find a way and create a worldline where no attractor field converges, a gap between Alpha attractor field and Beta attractor field, a worldline which no person has observed its future, the Steins;Gate worldline, Divergence 1.04859%.
