The previous episode revealed how Kanae, the mother of Asumi and Koki, developed an AI called the KANAE system. The same AI system was used on a vehicle driven by 0th and Tsuzuragawa. Unfortunately, the vehicle met with an accident, leaving the duo injured.

The episode showcased how 0th developed dyslexia because of the aftereffects of the accident.

"The KANAE system was based on artificial intelligence that was developed by Kanae, who was Koki and Asumi's mother. In the past, the same AI was installed on a vehicle that got into an accident leaving 0th and Tsuzuragawa injured. 0th is suffering from the after-effects of this accident caused by the faulty judgment of the AI and has developed dyslexia," read the official synopsis of Episode 9.

"Kanae racks her brains to come up with a solution but is told that there is a fundamental flaw in her system. After hearing that 0th has gotten into graffiti, she gives up on development. The 24th Ward has been developing steadily, but after Kanae's death, the fate of the city changes drastically," the synopsis continued.
