Erased: a little back story

Before we jump into the Erased season 2, here is a synopsis of Erased season 1. Erased tells the story of a young man Satoru Fujinuma from a small Japanese town Chiba. Satoru has a unique ability called “Revival.”He can travel back in time whenever there is a life-threatening incident happening in front of him.

Satoru travels back 18 years to prevent the killing of his mother Sachiko Fujinuma. He tries to prevent the murder of his friend Airi Katagiri, Kayo Hinazuki. He prevents the murder but is caught. Then he again travels back in time during his elementary school time. Satoru finds that his teacher Mr. Yashiro is the real killer and is forced to return to his own time.

The show then ends with a scene of ten years in the future. His relatives and friends join together, and Airi is seen reading Satoru’s Manga titled” Erased.”
