Routes

Kagerou Project contains many Routes (ルート Rūto) that feature alternative plots, endings, and in some cases, beginnings. According to Jin, the story has an established backstory, which segues into the Music , then to the Manga , followed by the Novel  , then Mekakucity Actors. The second route depicted in the manga ("Manga Route 2") has been shown to have taken place before the Music Route. Kagerou Daze -in a day's- is set at an unclear point, though it is after Manga Route 2 due to Shintaro having his eye ability. With every reset, Marry rewinds the world back to its beginning, before Azami becomes aware of her own existence.

Unknown Route 1
This route is depicted in the opening scene of Episode 01.
 * The Snake of Retaining Eyes, appearing as Ayano, talks to Shintaro, who is holding her scarf and looking away from her. They stand on what appears to be giant, working cogs that float over the air.
 * In response to her question, Shintaro says he doesn't remember her. She says that makes her sad, but she doesn't mind, as she already knows that nobody can remember her from the get go.
 * The other Mekakushi Dan members except Marry are seen in the order of their member numbers, their surroundings reminiscent of their causes of death that made them come into contact with the Kagerou Daze.
 * The final shot zooms in on Marry, wearing her white hoodie over her dress, while the screen 'burns', possibly suggesting that a rewind has occurred.

Unknown Route 2
This route is depicted in the ending sequence of Episode 08 and briefly in the opening sequence of Episode 11. It is possible that this scene takes place in Manga's Route 2, but until there is canon confirmation of that placement, this scene will be described here.
 * Shintaro meets Ayano in the Kagerou Daze in a similar fashion to that seen in Losstime Memory.
 * Ayano wraps her scarf around Shintaro's neck, apologizes to him with a smile, and says goodbye. Shintaro tearfully reaches his hand out towards her as the space between them expands.
 * Marry approaches Shintaro, who is on all fours with Ayano's scarf still around his neck. She kneels down on to his level, and then her appearance changes to her Medusa form. Shintaro promises to Marry that he will never to forget the Tragedy, and she gives him the Snake of Retaining Eyes.
 * In Episode 08, this scene was shown to occur in a blank white space, while in Episode 11, it occurs over a background that shows the entire world and the sun behind it. It is likely that this scene ultimately takes place in the Kagerou Daze.

Unknown Route 3
This route is depicted briefly in the ending sequence of Episode 08 and in the opening sequence of Episode 11. It is unclear whether this scene actually happens in the Anime Route, thus its placement here.
 * Shintaro is in his room wearing a black hoodie and sweatpants. Both his wall screen and cell phone display static. He has activated Retaining Eyes and observes memories of the Mekakushi Dan dying and Marry despairing.
 * The Snake of Retaining Eyes explains to Shintaro their power and that he has had it for a very long time, even before his birth, and that he is free to do what he wants with the knowledge provided by it. She asks him what he is going to do.
 * Shintaro, using Retaining Eyes until the end, commits suicide by stabbing himself in the throat with a pair of red scissors.

Route XX
Route XX is shown in Losstime Memory and follows Shintaro in a black hoodie in events that occur in the Music Route, according to official timeline guides. In Route XX, Shintaro remains depressed in his home with Ene, who is shown in the outfit she wears in Jinzou Enemy. On August 15th, after dreaming of Ayano (possibly the Snake of Retaining Eyes) and being woken up by Ene, he kills Ene and then commits suicide by stabbing himself in the throat with red scissors. In the Kagerou Daze, he briefly meets Azami and then Ayano, but he is incapable of moving forward and begs her not to leave him. The Losstime Memory PV ends Route XX with Shintaro shown laying awake in his bed.

Route 1
Depicted in Losstime Memory, Route 1 follows Shintaro in a red jersey leaving his house on August 15th and going to the Mekakushi Dan's hideout to meet them. He briefly hears Ayano (possibly the Snake of Retaining Eyes) calling out to him and turns towards her direction, but he does not see anything. Later, the Mekakushi Dan observes the Snake of Clearing Eyes taking over Konoha's body. Konoha, briefly gaining control, puts a gun to his own head, but Shintaro pushes him and takes the shot instead, dying instantly. In the Kagerou Daze, he walks past Azami and confronts Ayano with a smile. Ayano smiles back and gives him her scarf, and his eye ability activates.

Kagerou Daze -in a day's- Route
It's unclear when this route takes place, though likely after Manga Route 2 due to Shintaro having his eye ability. Sidu said this route has a sequel called "route-2", but did not go into detail. Besides character design changes, this is an alternate version of the terrorist plot. There is notably a member of the terrorist group that has an eye ability, which Shintaro noticed. He and the Dan mistook the leader as having the eye ability, but after the incident he realized it was someone else. A bomb goes off in the building at the end of the movie, leaving what happens unclear.

the old days/my little daze Route
Depicted in the Drama CD and booklet accompanying, respectively, Limited Editions A and B of the daze days album. In this route, Ayano spaces out during the opening ceremony of her second year of middle school, earning a scolding from her teacher. During their conversation, Shintaro's mom calls the teacher, apologizing for Shintaro's absence from the ceremony. Ayano's teacher tells her about how Shintaro is incredibly smart, but as a consequence he sees no value in human contact and isolates himself, thus having no friends. Ayano requests her teacher to be assigned a seat by Shintaro's side, in an attempt to befriend him. About a month later, Ayano was unsuccessful in approaching Shintaro, and due to having done badly in her midterms, she is given extra assignments by her teacher. Ayano decides to stay at school to work on them, but ends up falling asleep. Meanwhile, Shintaro has forgotten his wallet at school, and so he returns there at evening. Once he reaches the classroom, Shintaro is scared by Ayano, who then takes the opportunity to formally introduce herself to him. Ayano asks for Shintaro's help with her assignment, to which he relutanctly agrees. While helping her, Ayano commends Shintaro for his academical prowess, claiming he must study a lot. He reveals that, in truth, he can memorize anything once he sees it once, both for good and for bad. Ayano assures him that she will help him make good memories from that point on. They leave the school building together and head home. At the ending scene, the Snake of Retaining Eyes talks to Shintaro as the timeline is about to end. She assures him that she'll always be in his heart, and makes him promise that they'll say "long time no see" next time they see each other again.

Post-Good End
Eventually, the Snake of Clearing Eyes is defeated, with the Mekakushi Dan (besides Konoha) and Haruka surviving. This outcome is currently only shown in Mekakucity Actors' Route and in the ending theme Summertime Record. It is shown in Mekakucity Actors and in the post-Summertime Record chapter Lost Day Hour that Ayano and Hiyori survive as well. Jin has expressed interest in writing about a "new Mekakushi Dan" in the future. In a November 28, 2018 interview he said he wants the next story to be about a "future saga" and is currently experimenting on a new light novel and might do a new manga series as well.
