The second opening cutscene in ''Travis Strikes Again'' is the biggest connection between ''killer7'' and a work that takes place in the timeline of the other works (''Travis Strikes Again'' is heavily linked to ''The 25th Ward''). In this scene, [[Dan Smith]] is targeting [[Shigeki Bikin]], aka Badman, and talks on the phone to Mills. The entire scene is done up in the style of ''killer7''; indeed, Shigeki Birkin originates from ''[[killer is dead]]'', a spin-off story of ''killer7''.
