Kumori's Identity (Spoilers)

raidem:
I agree. But I think he has to maintain the logic established in scifi literature regarding time travel.  He will likely adapt tropes regarding time travel into his plots.  He has to be consistent with his in book talking heads said to be knowledgeable about time, time travel and his woj's on topics regarding alternate realities, time travel, cosmic view, nature of time, free will, causal effects going off in every direction, etc.

It seems that the best use of time travel is for Harry to move backward in time to one point specifically and then only for a limited time frame. For him to move to multiple points would seem to be too much like autocorrecting hanging plot points and story discrepancies.

raidem:
But see this can lead to an error where we think that is the only time travel takes place.  I too like a simplistic view of Harry time traveling with least amount of absurdities at first glance.  But this presupposes Harry is the only time traveler, or even the only person along with him on his time traveling mission. The meshing of these other actors, some at cross purposes should create the more complexities than Harry's limited engagement would suggest.

Ananda:
The nly really good time travel film I’ve seen is Primer. There’s some serial on netflix that my husband puts on called Timless or Timelines or Timesomething. They have time machines and do all these goofy adventures, but the plot is so linear. They really don’t put any depth into it.

Tmeless? Modifed to Timeless.
