He's actually not a newly introduced character. He was in the first couple of episodes, but it's been a while since we last saw him. It explains why he's listed as a recurring character on the series' site, though. That's something I'd been wondering about considering he didn't seem to have any real relation to the plot beyond being Asuna's boss and hadn't made any appearances in half a dozen episodes. But it certainly means it was always intended to be him. So I guess the movie is just...doing whatever it wants.

I'm guessing that silly "Emu was a pair of twins" thing is also just for the movie, since having a different doctor probably means there's a different secret about the operation.

Anyway, watched the episode subbed. I totally missed in the raw how Kiriya was saying Emu died when getting his records. That's so perfectly dishonest. I love Kiriya.
