** Timeline wise, events are more spread out in the fanfic. Case in point, the first five chapters, ranging from Hoshi’s introduction to the cast and fighting Jorougumo, adds a couple of extra days in between Episodes 5 and 6 of Re:Creators. This is later shown in Cinder Fall, where only two episodes are adapted and the rest takes place during the timeskips leading to the final arc.
