| Didn't he mention getting bit by the dog last episode as well? Guessing that's what made him sick considering they went out of the way to show the bite at the end of this episode which means he may have died in his sleep last episode by choking on his vomit. Definitely the best anime of the season |
| That after credits scene... I thought he would just see the killer. Did not expect all that. That was so brutal. It was done so well. And now it's another reset, I really feel bad for him, especially seeing his reactions when he was getting attacked. I think the fact you can hear chains might be important. |
 |
| Oh my god, the tension the last 4 minutes of this episode brought was INSANE. This anime has so much potential, and its already a 9/10 for me so far. That scene was one of the best this anime season. This is everything I want in anime, good comedy, good characters, mystery, and well done tension and gore! |

Would have loved to see all that gore animated, but you know, if the Anime's title doesn't end with -no Naku Koro ni- you'll never see such a great amount of gore uncensored Actually I'm pretty sure higurashi was censored when it was first aired as well. They released uncensored version later. Probably going to do the same for rezero. at least i hope haha...those black blob censors suck! |
 |
| next loop is where the story will reveal who the killer is. however there's more story about the killer and their motif. making the 4th loop "very exciting". the author was brilliant here. |

| I had high hopes for this show. But the plotholes and the awful writing is unbearable at this point. The main character keeps acting like a 8 year old kid with down syndrome. |
guyklc said: This whole episode up to the credits felt like a massive waste of time. Rather than hitting on girls, Subaru should have used this chance to investigate what could have possibly caused his death previously. Nonetheless, the after credits scene was absolutely intense and very well done. Yeah, exactly. Let's take away the show from its shitty writers and give it to you, because it's ridiculous how the current producers can't deal with something so obvious and annoying. |
| The the Hisuis are demons, huh.... and being Subaru is suffering |
mozgow said: maybe she's an introvert? Not all kids all all hyper and go-lucky you know.skyUFO said: That's obvious. Just look at this "puppy".And also I think he got sick from the dog bite. And the girl holding it also looks weird. Why isn't she laughing (or at least smiling) as other kids? and the dog is cute :P i see nothing wrong with it. guyklc said: he's trying to keep everything as the same as possible. that way, he has the advantage of knowing the future.This whole episode up to the credits felt like a massive waste of time.

T.T I'm surprised they brought it in but I'm so happy they did...and props to White Fox. They way they did it was just WOW. The face expressions of dying Subaru sent shivers down your spine and the lifeless arm hanging from that cup, the walls painted in red. And then the sound of the skull crushing. I expected this to happen in episode 6 and that episode becoming the turning point but they already did it this episode. I love them. White Fox <3! i was hoping they had fully adapted the manga, panel from panel... this is what happened in the manga: but i guess due to the goreness they have to censor it. damn. i really want to see it animated. how the intestines falling out would look like. Fappa said: arc 3 definitely needs to show gore, otherwise it'll be really awkward.Really? Then I can rest assured they will do arc 3 justice. These people know how to create the right atmosphere within the boundaries of what they can show. |

shanimebib said: DarkingDawning said: I found this really interesting. Ram closes her eyes, but Rem opened her eyes? I smell something fishy here.  Another interesting thing is how Subaru and Rem are the only two characters who are shown with changing expression in the ED. The rest of the characters including Emilia aren't shown like that. Makes me think Rem is a special character amongst the side characters. Interesting. When we see Subaru changed his expression was because he was remembering his time with Emilia. I wonder if Rem's expression changed because she remembered the time she spent with Subaru? Where everyone else closes their eyes, but her eyes are open because she knows Subaru? I mean, Rem knows Subaru size perfectly without measuring him in this episode. Then she's been staring at Subaru a lot of times in this episode and Ram seems to be angry at her for doing it. Could it be that Rem is trying to protect Subaru from dying because she remembers? Holy shit. This gets interesting. |
| Is it possible, that when Elsa sliced Subaru's belly she placed some kind of curse upon him? Notice how he is vomiting. |

Fappa said: For people who are interested in the manga version of this which is uncensored then here. No Spoilers. Warning NSFW! I actually think the anime was better here. You don't need to make a scene like that super gorey to be intense. Just good direction and framing will do and its' lots off-putting to people who can't handle that stuff very well. You missing anything by not knowing about it. FlamepriesT said: That was definitely a lot of content to adapt. I'm not entirely sure if they skipped part of Subaru's conversation with Roswaal, but I'm almost sure that scene only happens once in the manga, so I guess they did. They been rearranging scenes compared to manga so the discussion with Roswaal well either come up or they probably have some else like Beatrice do it IMO. |
Iron_MawMay 1, 2016 1:34 PM
| So no clue on who is the killer. This episode is the same from last one apart from the "I'm not gonna fall asleep" and "I made progress with the sisters". |
 |
| fucking amazing. i'd actually be disappointed if he finds out who's the killer and motives after just one loop. shit like these takes time. A slow and steady revelation.. yes yes.. entice me with those cliffhangers.. |
Stay in yesterday 時を止めて |
| These spoiler tags are lethal af. Why are people even talking about future content... I'd advise you guys to not open them. |

"Hi!" |
| @Jagd84 I actually share your opinion in that regard. I simply wanted to show people what happened because due to the censoring by darken the scenes some would have problems to see it. Like many say, the camera angles, the face expressions, the voice acting and the music were stellar! |
thank God i resisted clicking them. |

These people know how to create the right atmosphere within the boundaries of what they can show. The anime is being adapted from the LN not the manga and it doesn't really need to show all the gore since it's not what drives the series. Not to mention, the scene after the ending credits got the point across. Did you really want to see his skull get smashed that badly? |
Wintovisky said: So no clue on who is the killer. This episode is the same from last one apart from the "I'm not gonna fall asleep" and "I made progress with the sisters". You act like the mystery was going to be solved in this epiosde or next. To begin with Subaru's relationship development with the sisters is going to be important part of this arc partly because this arc character driven. And yes this has lot of clues of who killer is but you know until later because it isn't in your face like a good mystery. |

I'm assuming the manga is being faithful to the light novel, but it could be the case that some things in the manga have been altered instead. I'd like to read the light novel, but since I'm just getting started with Japanese novels, I'd rather not make that commitment for the time being. |

| What i wonder tough, why did the Hisuis handle him differently this time? |
| OMG Dat after ending credit scene 0________0 |

I'd like to read the light novel, but since I'm just getting started with Japanese novels, I'd rather not make that commitment for the time being. Well according to WN and LN readers the anime has been rearranging stuff there to so just not manga adaptation. It's still very faithful, it's just that some stuff are happening in a different order. Cryptical said: To those who have read the manga: Is this serie going to actually turn dark at some point? I love the tension filled scenes but dislike that 80% of the time it's comedic. It's never going to be fully dark with death every minute if that what is your asking. Character development and dynamics is pretty important to this story. And it's not 80% comedic anyway. |
Iron_MawMay 1, 2016 1:48 PM
| Wow, this Episode was intense. The loli girl seems to remember Subaru.. Or did I get that wrong? Are the Twins !aybe demons? The smirk of the blue haired girl Kind of makes me think that. |

But from experience I also know that it's really hard not to laugh or at least smile when bunch of people around you is laughing. Unless you have a really good reason to not laugh. That's why I'm saying there is some mystery behind that face expression. And the dog; well, it's cute, but I think there is more to it than meets the eye. |

Although I guess that's what makes the dark scenes all the more powerful..still, I'm kinda getting bored with the cheery generic MC. The percentage of drama vs comedy is going to increase in favor of drama and psychological. The next episode will depict some darker scenes, while episode 7 will be even darker. |

What you've witnessed at the end is actually the tone shifting point in the story. The story is extremely dark to begin with so all we've seen so far was basically the wrong expectations of this world through Subaru's eyes. So to answer it directly |

So far it feels like it's building up to that shift in tone, was just wondering if that's actually going to happen. I think that the percentage of comedy will be around 2% in episode 7. |

Stark700 said: THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Heh, this episode was kinda funny. We got Subaru coping with the aftermath of the loop. Quite a bit of lewd moments lol like him and Roswaal hanging out and Ram giving him a towel while he is nude. I also find it amusing at how he works with the twins around the house, fun fun. Subaru also getting along quite well with the locals though. Obviously not everything is normal with the stuff going on with the darker developments. Lewd. Also glad to see the ED credits with more visuals. You literally have no idea what happens in a episode, you watch it raw then give out a bad description just to create discussion first. I''ve noticed this for a long time. |

| This was one fucking intense episode! This series only gets better and better by the episode. I have no idea who's killing Subaru but its clear he was poisoned and then in the after credits scene with the fucking chain sound and him getting ripped apart literally made me squirm (God just the scene where he looks up and sees his arm was so god damn intense). 5/5 and still my freaking anime of the season if not the entire year. |
 |
| 75% of this episode was boring and useless (like the previous one). Ending was fabulous though. 3/5 |

Horizon355 said: 75% of this episode was boring and useless (like the previous one). Ending was fabulous though. 3/5 I honestly don't get people like you. Did everything that happened in this episode except the ending flew completely over your head? I guess people actually have to die so that "something happens" in your eyes. |
hiruman said: 2/3 part of this episode is kinda boring. They could easily cut a good amount of it without damaging the show. But the last part is extremely good. I'm sure the next episode will become more intense compared to the last 2. I disagree. Removing the character moments and build up removes the tension for the scenes where Subaru gets killed. It also allows us to see more of the characters who are the potential murder suspects. |

|
| people calling character moments and development boring and useless smh |
| Watch it be a demon that killed Subaru after the talk earlier about demons. Would be ironic as hell. |
|
| Lol with the mess that the murderer made of Subaru, wouldn't it have to be the maid that's good at cleaning? Kiddin'. I honestly have no idea who it could be. |
| Another great episode, if this carries on this would be the best anime of all time for me. I give the animation and art 11/10. Never seen this good before. ED is great and voice cast is good too. |
