The film and the American drama versions of Westworld share some narrative programs, which could be called narrative“ patterns”. They secure the continuity between the original and the adapted versions, and as a form of intertextuality, they stress the elements in programmatic references. In science-fiction texts,“ patterns” are present in the value system as well as narrative programs, following a possible set routine. The posthuman shown in science-fiction texts does not refer to the future reality, but just demonstrates the reading interests in the current era based on a concern for the future. Therefore, the so-called posthuman is the synthesis of factual expectations of future, narrative patterns, and reading expectancy, and it expresses a transcendent humanity that is beyond the limits of ordinary humanity.
