Oh, come on, in this anime every other CRT-lover has a gun, not to mention random unemployed sociopath girls

But what I really mean, the whole scene feels forced and underdeveloped. A villain is meeting his daughter who happens to offer him a paper on her time travel theory. Good stuff, says he, having turned a couple pages, and announces that he is going to steal it. Then some guy shows up. Oh, I see, says the villain, you people conspired against me. And he pulls out what? A pocket knife. Why? To kill everyone, indeed.
Why doesn't he quietly run away to Russia, nobody could stop him anyway...
