Dead to Begin With: Eike is murdered before gameplay even begins.

Crosses with But Thou Must!, as even if the player stays in the present and attempts to make Eike do the simple and obvious thing such as those as suggested above (walk away from the tree, not take the poison, etc.) the game forces Eike to either stay where he is for whatever reason and get killed, die by some other means, or triggers a cutscene to cause the death to happen sooner than it would have if he didn't.

This is however explained by the fact that the Digipads & Homunculu's power to go back in time has limitations it can only go back to certain points.

Even if it failed, knowing the identity of the killer would have let him resolve the plot in at least half the time.

To top it all off, Eike could have spent one jump to spy on or directly confront the killer.

And a long chain of deals involving a faberge egg expy to get a street sign/frying pan to use as makeshift body armor to avoid getting stabbed.

Giving an aspiring film-maker a pep-talk so his film poster gathers a crowd to scare away an assassin (instead of not walking out at night). Other hare brained schemes include telling a man in the 1900's to build a library so that Eike can research the cure to Sea Hare poison in the present, and find some even further back in the past (as opposed to not eating the poison).A notable example is going back in time, saving a woman from harassment, meeting said woman's family, and then performing a minor fetch quest all to prevent a tree that the killer will hide behind from ever being planted rather than just not standing near the tree.

Complexity Addiction: Eike's schemes to prevent his demise are comically complicated.

Big Damn Heroes: In Ending B, Eckhart sneaks up on Hugo from behind and wrestles him to the ground, effectively saving Eike and Margarette.

Back Stab: Happens to Eike at least three times First in the beginning, then in the second and fourth chapters.

And he was able to build one in the sixteenth century!

Awesome by Analysis: Hugo figured out how to make a time machine just by looking at the Digipad for a couple of seconds.He's referred to as male and has a male voice, but you'd be forgiven for thinking he was a girl. To add on to the politeness, in one of the endings Homunculus only needs to collect the digipad from Eike to wrap up his plan, instead of just taking it he even reminds Eike beforehand that he's forgotten to return someone to their own time and lets him do so if he wants.It's why he can continually be brought back. The doctor sold his soul to Homunculus for eternal youth and became Eike. And of course there's the little detail that he owns Eike's soul. About the evilest things he does involve killing the doctor or Hugo in two different endings, though Wagner betrayed him and Hugo was trying to kill him.He's even friendly and chatty with Eike at points, though his default reaction to finding out Eike has been killed and having to pull his soul out of the time stream hovers somewhere between polite amusement and mild exasperation that Eike's taking a while to figure out how to escape death. Also, his plan isn't as bad as you would think - he just wants to ensure that he isn't Ret-Goned from existence. Affably Evil: Homunculus - he's polite and doesn't really do anything evil ( with the notable exception of kidnapping people and having them sent into different points in time), but he often leaves disconcerting messages to Eike.Advertisement: This game provides examples of the following tropes:
