Telephone Operator (female):“…all lines are currently unavailable.”
Shinji:“It's no use.”
OMF: Enter Shinji; our story's main protagonist—hero not being the most appropriate label.

Keisuke-kun: Will Japan everget new public phones? That brandof public phone has been used in Japan for, like, five years already.
Reichu: Since this takes place in 2015 — apparently not.
Dr. Nick: Don't forget all those futuristic cellphones, laptops and game consoles we'll meet later on. ;)
