Okay, this guy NEEDS to get over himself. He's really not THAT big a deal.

Also, he somehow thinks that doing the exact same things that got Emilia mad at him in the first place is going to get her to forgive him for doing said things.

ALSO - somehow - it's going to work.

Hey guys, we had two arcs in 12 episodes, even so everyone seems to think that the 13 episodes left will only cover the third arc, and not the fourth. Why's that?

I think this is going to stop at the third arc for now. But I must say in spite of Subaru I am a bit intrigued about the world their in. When the speak of the Jealous witch I am reminded of ancient legends form other stories. Like the Deathsaurer from Zoids CC, Voldemort Harry Potter, or the Sith from Starwars. She hasn't even been introduced and she gives people bad vibes long after death/sleeping (for so long).

Echoing others, I understand he's going through a lot of shit to say it lightly. But his attitude for awhile is very grating. I feel like he needs to be given a blood transfusion then killed off :p [guess the reference!]

To go from one suffering to the next can't wait. It will seem hopeless for subaru seeing as how he refuses to change. He keeps relying on his ability but that will probably keep adding to his despair. To others death is a release not a punishment but to Subaru its a punishment because he has to suffer and that suffering never goes away. That's why his mind is beginning to deteriorate because the negative aspects never leave.

There was a little sound or scream when those cult guys showed up that made it ever so more creepy, just replaying that sound puts me on edge.

Apparently, Arc 4 is way too big to be fit in there. Season will probably end with the end of Arc 3 with episode 25. Arc 4 would require a whole 25 epiosdes alone, to be adapted. If it is true, rushing Arc 3 and Arc 4 in a mere 10 episodes would be the worst butchering of history.

Hmmm I see, I hope we get a new season though (I heard the light novels sell a lot, and the anime must be pushing it further). But I feel like they're kinda losing ground in the last 3 episodes, hope it comes back to the great quality of arc 1 and 2, this episode already feels alot better

Wow, that was crazy. Rem didn't even make to the inside of the mansion. That seriously must have been one hell of a battle.

Subaru might be dying again soon (this time by his own choice). Wonder what he's going to do different. He seems very determined to train with that wooden sword. I wouldn't be surprised if he uses shinimodori as some kind of training tool to get stronger.

Also really enjoyed the op. I like how they show Subaru at the bottom of the sea, since as we know, his character has sunken to the low state that we see him in now. And now the "witch hands" are no longer wrapping around Subaru like in the old op.... now it's Emilia.... Even though we've known she's in some way connected to the witch for a while now.

ah man thought Subaru would take the time to reflect on himself a bit guy is to far gone right now ,hell the death of the villagers didn't even click with him for a while his mind is so fixated on one thing and one thing only.

crazy cultist dudes were kinda creepy how they just showed up paid some respect and vanished.


I wonder if this is the witches cult we heard so much about (most likely they are). I find it funny how Subaru wants respect that he so much (believes he) deserves, yet there it is.... just not from the people he wants it from.

I don't want you to misunderstand this for any prejudicial cherry picking but as you have compared & evaluated a real world epidemic. With decades of long & subjectively diverse etymology and literature - To a pseudo reality with spontaneous yet emotionally intelligent characteristics, features & most importantly 'adaptations'.

There is a few points that may (or may not) perhaps be educational to your aforementioned comments that seem to be contradicting your claims and not treating the anime with the respect, you have mentioned to enjoy, overall. So based on my understanding, in regards to your mediocre accusations, I must also express my discernment towards vague & irrational contributions towards your comments & overall review that lacks conceptual & inconceivable consensus.

Sadly In my most humble opinion, that it must be treated as something that goes beyond the norm and realm of mere opinions or reviews. Would you consider my implications to be credible that judges you from one comment? Should I now conclude that you suffer from or present symptoms that closely resemble Narcissistic Personality Disorder? Or would you prefer an irresponsible 'diagnosis' & an on-going treatment plan for Borderline Personality Disorder?

But I could also, just accept that it's just your way of thinking & just treat this as a mistake stemming from the lack of understanding, on a prevalent stigmatic & despairingly stereotypical - buzz-word; namely 'mental illness'. Of course, not forgetting that the classifications are exclusive to the person involved.

We all inevitably have our own retrospective biases. It's fine, I mean we could condition or rewire our thoughts and regulate our emotions through mere respiration of two well known gases, simple right? Or oppositely we can just find our self in a situation with no experience or knowledge on how to handle or respond to the given situation/s. That's the whole beauty of the mysterious & unpredictable way of life. However I believe even with perspective & speculation, there must be certain limitations & sensitivity, especially when judging a situation with no understanding or clue of a character that has a sudden appearance in an unknown world. That convenient point is most of our starting point?

One must consider, especially within this context of the authors innovative imagination & creative writing before such a conclusive review. This novel/manga creates such opportunities for unique emotional empathy & cognition. With such diversely complex variations it is a laughable to be able to Identify - Classify the generalised notion of 'mental health', in which you have pointed out numerous times.

Try to acknowledge these points, that may enhance your approach to criticality & future judgements.

Before reflecting on fictional characters, try reflecting on your own incompetencies. If this is possible, then at least try to use the fictional comparisons, to your own past and present responses to situations?

Mental Illness as a whole is a very problematic & fragile aspect of our life, we constantly shift between thoughts and emotions, responding to different situations, that in most cases are completely opposites. Try to be more sensitive and enjoy an anime, with more conceptually relative comments.


I really suggest that you spend some time practicing your phrasing because the only effect it has is to obscure your points behind verbose descriptors and phrases, which do not add any substantial worth to you argument.

As a reference, this is a condensed version of what you've written:

"I don't mean to offend you, but your conclusion that Subaru suffers from a mental illness is stupid. You make that conclusion based on just a small bit of behavior; it's as if I accused you of having mental illness based simply upon the self aggrandizing demonstrated in your comment. Alternatively, I could assume that you're being dumb and just don't understand what the word means. While we all have our faults, which we can't help, what you've said simply goes too far. You forget that the author has free reign and that the situations are fantastical so any attempt to a diagnosis of mental illness is absurd. In the future, please try to be less of an idiot and avoid confusing fiction with reality."

Now, I have no idea if you intended it or not, but beyond your writing style, you've demonstrated a high level of disdain. This is because you could've written it like this:

"I don't agree with your conclusion because there's too little evidence to support your conclusion. Also, you need to remember that this is a fictional story where anything can happen, so I don't think it's correct to make any real world comparisons, especially with something as sensitive as 'mental illness.' Remember, mental illness is a very serious matter, so you should not casually make comparisons to it."

Instead you've seem to have included a wide plethora of insults in your response. Intentional or not, belittling others does not help you make your point. In most cases, it simply causes your audience to tune out your message or fail to take you seriously. In all seriousness, if you truly wish for others to take your point about mental illnesses seriously, then I would recommend that you improve your writing style by making it more concise and that you treat others with the same degree of sensitivity and respect that you feel the topic of mental illnesses deserves.

I'm super mad! I really didn't like Subaru's entire attitude and expression in this episode, although I understand why he's mad since everyone treats him rudely. Sometimes I wish he'd just listen to Emilia tho. But srsly Subaru is becoming super dark and annoying at times. I also dislike how he constantly says people "need" him even tho he's basically been under everyone else's care the entire time.

Was there a reason for Pico to be a trap? For Coco to be a trap? For Haku ( Naruto ) to be a trap? For GGO Kirito to be a trap? For What's-Her-Face in Nisekoi to be a trap? For pretty much EVERY trap character EVER to be a trap?

I have difficulty to understand why it wold matter for Re: Zero.


As for the episode, I love this anime more and more and it might get up in my Top 3 soon at this rate. Subaru being a d*ck is just great, that way you don't have the oh so perfect MC that does everything right and he's never wrong his side bitches are always the one that do things incorrectly.

Bruh..

There seems to be quiet an unexpected focus on length and I'm finding it quiet hard to make sense of it all, Here's my advise:

1. Revisit and comprehend before you condense. It has avoided or lacked the many points to be considered a "summary" or entirely represent my comment.

2. Methodology depends on the common three approaches you choose to take; exploratory, explanatory and descriptive. If you seriously wish to proceed on corrections. But again, I don’t know you or understand your purpose for the above comment, and did not gain anything insightful or new?

3. I have not said anything about my opinion being the 'absolute truth', nor have I disregarded any potential for clarifications, I have left room for amending any false/lack of understanding. As mentioned in my statement, I cannot find any trace of 'discreet' insults towards the member? I may have insulted the idea (a.k.a criticised) as a whole regardless of the writer.

4. Try to understand that hypocrisy exists, you may “unintentionally” have done the very same thing you claim to protest against. For example your post above may be insulting? You’ve simply judged my mental capacity, and simply tried to lecture me without any solid argument to the anime, you’ve just took what you want - cherry picked the one's that seem to stand out to you. I have not presented what may be defined as sensitive towards “mental illness” itself, I have quiet oppositely criticised content relevance, discussed my opinion, also the broad and complex nature of the term itself.

5. This is not a formal announcement, marketing strategy or charity campaign - etc. Engaging with the audience or expecting advice on any "communication" skills that may increase the likelihood of engagement; other than the proposal for delivering a well-understandable message to the targeted member, has no relevance to my intended outcome nor discredits any of my claims.

You have semi-summarised the main body, morphed it in to your own words and all I can understand is, the evidence you supposedly gathered, concludes that I am wrong and be more sensitive for other things. I also "condensed" it, no? If that's what the primary concern is.

It's up to you to, take what you want from it. But remember that mine was opinion-orientated and yours strongly emphasised on my skills, which question actual facts.

REM! Oh well, time to die again.
But it's important to remember that a movie review is subjective;it only gives you one person's opinion.

It doesn't matter if you like LoGH,Monster etc.If you are a jobless or college/school dropout living in your mom basement, you are still an unintelligent loser. Taste in anime does not make you a better person.If elitist don't exist, casual pleb and shit taste also don't exist.

Well it was pretty obvious Subaru would fuck up again but I didn't think it'd actually be worse than what happened last episode.

I wonder how long it'll be before he finally realizes he's not some super powered hero and stop acting like the arrogant prick he is.

He might be the most unlikable MC I've seen in an anime in quite some time. His constant blunders and increasing insanity are becoming more and more annoying. I'm mostly intrigued by EVERYBODY around him and their motivations. The witch/dragon etc...Unfortunately I have to see it through the eyes of Subaru.


...Except the only thing you could remotely blame for is Rem. But this attack on village had nothing to do with him, it was going to happen no matter what. So centralizing what clear antagonists have done towards him makes no sense. Of anything had not come to check it out he would no idea what had happened for days. It would be too late to do anything about it at that point.

I don't think killing himself is going to make him less crazy (but we know he's gonna have to do it sooner or later anyway). I kind of wonder if he's going to get worse tbh. This episode, he also seemed a lot meaner / colder towards some people (especially Reinhardt).

Well it was pretty obvious Subaru would fuck up again but I didn't think it'd actually be worse than what happened last episode.

I wonder how long it'll be before he finally realizes he's not some super powered hero and stop acting like the arrogant prick he is.

He might be the most unlikable MC I've seen in an anime in quite some time. His constant blunders and increasing insanity are becoming more and more annoying. I'm mostly intrigued by EVERYBODY around him and their motivations. The witch/dragon etc...Unfortunately I have to see it through the eyes of Subaru.


The thing is, it doesn't seem like the author wants us to like Subaru, but to pretty much hate him. To be honest, I prefer despising a character because of what he does than liking him, because I feel like it brings more entertainment.

I'm not sure if I'm being clear enough/if I'm able to explain correctly, but the main reason why I've loved those past episodes is because I came to react to the way Subaru does things and to actually hate him for being such an annoying prick. Also makes the other characters show another side, with everyone (even Rem) being against him instead of always taking care of him.

Also shows how he changes and how the ''I'm immortal'' thing makes him feel like he's god or something. He thinks everyone needs him while he did almost nothing at all.

Subaru went full retard the past 2 episodes. It seems that he have some sort of messiah complex. He have no combat abilities nor any significant magic power, what could he ever do against strong foes attacking the castle? He's just being delusional and selfish right now. Well, at least it's kind of refreshing to see MC not being a "Kirito" saving the world easily simply because he's born talented, but Subaru is kind of annoying POS now.

Based on the OP and what I have watched so far, my guess is that the reason Subaru is so drawn to Emilia is due to the Jealous Witch presence/hold over him.

I assume the Jealous Witch wants to take over Emilia's body, as hers is sealed away, and that Subaru is her unwitting pawn to make that happen.

Who knows, I may be completely wrong, but just trying to make sense of Subaru's utter devotion to Emilia and a few events in the OP and anime.
