| The scene when Subaru starts to cry with Emilia really get me. The poor dude has passed through so much shit it's understandable he was in such state. The seiyuu here really nailed the scene, to the point it's sounds really realistic. Subaru didn't die this episode, but even when he doesn't die, he still suffers. At least he got some moments with Emilia this time. Apart of that, we got some worldbuilding of how the magic of the world works, how the curses are produced and who is the Witch of Envy Satella. And that thing that Beatrice mentions about curses being transmited by physical contact and Subaru remembering that he was probably cursed in that village (since it was the only physical contact he had without counting the Roswaal mansion residents), makes me think that he gained the curse when he was Cannot wait to see the resolution of this arc. |

| Loved the episode. We got to catch a break after how intense Episode 7 was. Subaru needed to cry his lungs out, he really did and Emilia is an angel. As a manga reader I'm very excited cause next episode will be the first time I won't know what's going to happen! |
| This anime is soooo much better than I originally anticipated. That lap pillow scene was very sweet. Seeing how much Subaru has been affected by his multiple (gruesome) deaths is fantastic. He always puts on that overly optimistic/energetic persona to deal with his stress, but it doesn't work anymore. Its good that he has Emilia to comfort him now :) Also, Puck is always so goddamn adorable. |
| This arc has been awful but it seems next 2 episodes could finally end this pain. This episode Subaru has been even more annoying than usual, girls still stereotyped and the breakdown scene kinda cheap solution to his stress. |

pteroz said: Fai said: That might be his line of thinking, but genre savvy watcher in me would not be surprised if she IS Satella and is just messing with him(and everyone). Not sure she can be the witch and don't smell the witch. Rem would hate her We don't know enough about the whole "Witch smell" right anyway and wether it is something she is supposed to give off or if it is something akin to biblical mark of cain. That would be easiest way to hide yourself, would it not? To have a specific thing associated with you that you do NOT have. As they said this ep that someone tried to destroy her in the past, I would not be surprised if she is weakened and hiding this way(they did say she was not destroyed, right?). That would also explain the need for Subaru as a pawn. I just find it very freaking curious that as Beatrice describes to Subaru on how the witch was jealous of love, we have Emilia, who also is a half elf with silver hair, literally be Subaru's anchor and consolation right now. That's way too in line with what the witch would want, if she were her, would it not? Not to mention that Puck also stated that Emilia is also desperate for interaction and relationships, few episodes ago. Ultranumbed said: Fai said: That might be his line of thinking, but genre savvy watcher in me would not be surprised if she IS Satella and is just messing with him(and everyone). Same here. What are the odds that the witch has the "same" physical characteristics as Emilia? Taking it with a grain of salt but not completely disregarding it. I know. I would be willing to suspend my disbelief in overall if this was any other anime, but this so far actually went out of fits way to lampshade or subvert cliches and treated most of stuff realistically. So I doubt its as simple as "oh its just a coincidental similarity" as Emilia put few episodes back. |

| great episode! damn subaru, so lucky!!! |
| I felt the earlier episodes were more exciting but im warming up to the mansion arc. The maids are cute but I keep flashing back to the brutal murders so I'm conflicted man... lap pillows ftw |
| Seems like this is the last pass then? (though it really seemed like bad end half-way through when Subaru started going crazy). The lap pillow was nice I guess (and the low angle too). Though now I also have to think about what's the deal with Emilia/Satella, seeking the love and claiming only 6 out of 7 deadly sins. Is it possible Subaru or Emilia is the last one she needs? And what kind of sin is it - perhaps wrath, pride or lust? So the village it is.. I just wonder where is the catch. |
SpawnOfSatan said: So you watched Chinese raw eh? That's why his descriptions on each episode are shit. He just wants to be the first one to post it. It is pretty sad. |
| Previously: BlueXRam |
Mich666 said: Is it possible Subaru or Emilia is the last one she needs? And what kind of sin is it - perhaps wrath, pride or lust? The way I saw it Satella was also described for a sin? Jealousy. So eating the other six deadly sins means she is only one left herself. |
|
| Another Based Episode, this Time with Information, World Building, some shipping, and showing some Idiots People why Suffaru was acting like that. I especially find the information about the Witch interesting, and how it seems that Emillia is a clone of her or something. Maybe Emillia is the Seal or something like that? |
Sometimes791 said: Count me in. But considering, the author is a sadist, he will enjoy screwing with their relationship. :( Yeah. Probably :C |
| Yeah, there are no other sin witches left. The quick transition from Subaru's exposition to barf scene kinda startled me but it shows how it continues until he just can't. |
| Back-to-back weeks with superb, emotional episodes. The pacing for this show is great; I hope there's no filler. |
| Cuteness overload, lap scene was the best scene from 8 episodes. "Please tell me your name" in episode 4 i think, was pretty great too |
B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L...Refers to Rem &Ram going mad and looking at him with disgust and resentment in the previous episodes...Perfect way to let it all out... |
 |
| Another amazing episode! Re:Zero does not disappoint |
 |
| This show is really too damn good. |
| The pics that Gandalf put up says all. (Also that underview) |
| Damn you, 3rd arc. You made me more and more hyped each week TwT It's surprising how much this anime has interested me when it wasn't even in my original list of this season. |

Fai said: The way I saw it Satella was also described for a sin? Jealousy. So eating the other six deadly sins means she is only one left herself. You are right, that's more likely. Still, I wonder how Emilia fit into this - is she really Satella or not? (just her body to be awakened by Subaru - kiss perhaps?). And each time they are talking about evil witch I always think that it would make a nice twist if she really isn't bad, just another girl who needs to be saved. And as far as I'm concerned the legend about eating her sisters could also be misinterpreted over the time or a plant by someone who wanted to do her harm. |

| The psychological aspect of this show is so wonderfully done, I've completely fallien in love with this series <3 It's a much lighter episode compared to the intense one last week, but now I'm kinda scared to see what'll happen next week haha |

ColdBreeze said: Fai said: If Satella is Emilia wouldn't that mean she died (so easily) in episode 1?That might be his line of thinking, but genre savvy watcher in me would not be surprised if she IS Satella and is just messing with him(and everyone). Well as I said above they did say that there was an attempt to destroy her but they could not do that completely. Obviously since she supposedly went from "devouring half the world" or whatever to messing around with Subaru as a pawn(which is what I guess is going on since the witch smell and Subaru's own self realization that him being there is way too convenient), its only obvious she got weakened or something. |

| Another great episode. Subaru's VA is fantastic. |
| Was expecting an info gathering episode so I can't complain. I will say the over-energetic subaru was really getting annoying but it played off nicely with his inner-thoughts before "BLEEEEEHHHHHH." The lap scene had its uses considering what he's gone through over the last few episodes. Almost makes me feel as if Emilia actually does know what's happening with him. He focused about on PR this time around while playing butler instead of faffing as a house guest or just trying to stop his death with the limited information. All and all I truly hope he keeps his memories with Emilia this time around, I'd say they're worth a bit more than when he traveled around town with her in the first episodes. |
| Man, I really hate lolis, so it really bothers me that I really enjoy Beatrice and Subaru's interactions and relationship now. It's really good how he can trust her and looks to her for help, just wish she wasn't a loli. |
| Jaywalker. |
| I think this was one of my favorite episodes so far since Subaru finally let it all out and can now think clearly. I wonder who the shaman will be..? |
| One note I think the Ram's commentary on Subaru was a tad different than the last time. I have to go check since it's been a while. But for now, boobs are here.  randelus said: This ep made me completely fall in love with this anime, I honestly cried when subaru had his meltdown, the poor thing just let him rest already..... also emilia is an angel oh my god, bless her. Now I really cant wait to see who's the cause of the curse. Also, the whole witch thing intrigues me so much. Really I think this is the anime I like the most this season aaahh This,Kabaneri, and Netoge or the only things I'm enjoying this seasron. Rest is letdown trash TBH, at least from what I have watched already. |

| ugh.. subaru is 100x annoying on the first part of the episode!! I really hate his constant ramblings of nonsense!! I know it's just his facade for hiding his worries but it's still painful to my senses.. Emilia-tan moment with lap pillow is actually good.. think I'll endure for this show a little bit more.. |

I thought it was pretty good that part. It finally showed the pain that he has hidden in for too long you know... I related/empathised deeply with him on that part. Depends on the person I guess... |

| i'd give it a 3/5 it wasn't good but wasn't bad either just pretty boring lol |
| Another great episode. Love how they let everything flow together. Really hyped for next week now. Can't wait now that we're getting close to finishing this arc. Then the real suffering shall begin. Also I'm still surprised that people are trying their damnedest just to find beef with this show, like that one comment about hoping Elsa gets in on the action and the show becomes a generic harem that way they'd have an excuse to hate on it other than their own personal subjective feelings. As for what I know though, so long as White Fox keeps on making this show true to the LN/WN, it's not going to give the trolls the benefit of the doubt by turning into super-generics, so it's better if all of you trolls out there just give up on that. This series is being written professionally with all intent to keep a good name for itself as an intellectual work of art. Any reasoning you can come up with to hate this show is only going to have as much merit as any reasoning you would have to hate classics like Code Geass, Steins;Gate, Cowboy Bebop and more. Not saying the show isn't classic levels yet, but it's doing a good job and shaping itself up to be so far. |

| Aite time to add this show to my list of anime that made me cry lol. Don't know how that lap pillow scene got me but man it was brilliant |
