Ep 4. Accomplishment

Satoru, a struggling manga artist, has the uncanny ability to travel back in time before life-changing events occur. In "Erased" Season 1 Episode 4, entitled "Accomplishment," Satoru continues his mission to prevent a series of child kidnappings from his hometown nearly twenty years ago. As Satoru reflects on his past to find clues to solve the mystery, he realizes he must work harder than ever to make sure the abductions never take place.

The episode begins with Satoru trying to perfect his drawing skills at his workplace. He thinks about his mother's words and is determined to fulfill her expectation while drawing. After work, he receives a phone call from his childhood friend, Kenya, who invites him to join him and the other classmates for the annual sports day event at the elementary school they attended. They meet at the school and watch the children compete in various races and games.

Satoru shares his thoughts on the kidnappings with Kenya, who agrees to help him investigate. On the way back, they meet the mother of one of the children who were kidnapped years ago. She tells them about her experience, including meetings with the kidnapper and her disbelief that he was the culprit, and it leads the two to believe that the kidnapper has an accomplice.

With this new information, Satoru decides to call his mother. He and Kenya have a discussion with her about the kidnappings and try to figure out if there are other people involved, but they don't come to any significant conclusions. Satoru later sees a news report about a man convicted of a different kidnapping case but is relieved when he learns that it isn't related to the kidnappings of his town.

As the story progresses, it becomes more apparent that someone is watching Satoru's every move. He senses that he is getting closer to the truth but remains unsure if he is close enough to prevent the kidnappings. His confusion deepens when the latest incident happens in front of his home, and he is unable to intervene in time. He becomes convinced that his mother's killer is somehow involved with the kidnappings.

Satoru realizes he needs to act fast to solve the mystery and prevent more abductions. In his latest attempt to travel back in time, he discovers a clue that could help him identify the kidnapper and prevent the abductions. However, he quickly realizes that exposing the culprit will be a daunting task. He must get the witness to come forward with information and convince the police to reopen the case.

The tension mounts as Satoru races against the clock to prevent the next potential kidnapping. He is motivated by one singular thought- 'accomplishment.' He wants to solve the mystery and prevent any future kidnappings before it's too late. With every move he makes, he gets closer to the truth and discovers that he may have more allies than he thought.
