Call Forward has to be set in the past of a single continuity, not a later part the adaptation hasn't shown yet. I'd argue that's also a spoiler, at least worded that way.


* CallForward: One of the shots with Makima has her with her brain matter halo from later in the manga.

* AdaptationalEarlyAppearance: Of a sort; in the manga version of Himeno's flashback to meeting Aki, he's introduced by an old man that is presumably Kishibe, but he looks very different than he would for the rest of the series. Here, it's very clearly Kishibe, using the finalized version of his design.
