Re-watch S1 just to hear a line about Felix being an OP healer? No thank you. A simple link to the number of specific episode should be enough. |

| @Faryd well forgetting an information like this says that you forgot a lot more, anyway i think it is in ep 12 i'm not sure but 12 is the episode where we first see him Seriously dude? I just checked episode 12 and yes, Roswaal mentions Felix being a healer - for a whole two seconds, in a single sentence. Forgetting an information so small and trivial makes me someone who's probably inattentive? Just wow... |
| Finally 2nd season started.. It was pretty decent, nothing wow. Yesterday i saw a lot of people saying that the 1st ep was masterpiece and so on... but it was just ok Anyway 7/10 for now |

QcDiablo said: jurekjurek said: I liked the first season, it was a solid 6,5/10 for me. But most people are weirdly in love with this title that's why I think it's a little overrated. Also this first episode was really boring and did not feel like new arc, but rather a badly executed continuation of first season. I will still watch it though in hope that some episodes wil blow me away like the whale hunt epioseds in S1. New arc starts next episode. This episode was the end of the previous arc but it would be a horrible episode to have put 4 years before this season. That's really true. Like imagine this being the last episode This might have been one of the worst possible way to end a season(, and then let people way 4 years for the new season) |

| deym covid, i guess we'll never get back to the animation quality of season 1's first half. i really miss the superb animation back then. welp, white fox still did fine despite the pandemic, nothing we can do bout it. also rip peeps who waited for years just to see rem again lol Scuderia1615 said: First episode and already a fight, seems we're introduced to new villians. Seems everyone still forgot Rem, poor Rem, she has only one goal and thats Subaru. I wonder how she will react if she wakes up. is it just me or is the animation even better than last season? its on par with the latter episodes of season 1. you gotta watch the first half again and remember how excellent its animation was Mod Edit: Merged duplicated posts; please use the edit button. |

| why am i so well drawn into time travel stories? do i really have that many regrets? |
| That was quite the lukewarm 'Welcome back!' The episode set up this season's villains but neither can I say that I liked it nor that I hated it. Some more CG but the animation quality dropped. The emotional OST sounded good but felt out of place since there was no literally no buildup to it. The characters were also an up and down. Emilia seems much more mature (despite no time having passed) and Felis pulled a uno-reverse card regarding his entire character. Might be that the gap was too long, but for now I must admit that this does not pull me in. Hopefully, next episodes flash out the enemies a bit more and tie this better into the web of the main story. |

| and i thought subaro is gonna be a little bit more tolerable this season...but no, hes still an obnoxious crybaby. seriously, in all my years of watching fantasy shows (not just anime) he is perhaps the least likable protagonist i've ever stumbled across |
| Funny, seeing people assuming everything based on an episode Take it easy now.We haven't seen anything yet |

North25 said: That's really true. Like imagine this being the last episode This might have been one of the worst possible way to end a season(, and then let people way 4 years for the new season) Having it end there with how the fanbase was full waifu war at the moment probably would have been a very dangerous mix. Midseason: best waifu speech ever. Endseason: falls in coma after fighting to death 2 times in a row, and Emilia ends triunfally conforting Basuru over her body. *RATING 6,00 AUTOMATICALLY* The relief is that right now Emilia's feeling about Subaru is not so different of Subaru's feelings over Rem, before her fate at least. |
 |
| Was the episode good? Yes, it was pretty good. |
| Btw. It is just one of Tapei's plot holes, but is bothering me how nobody in that last meeting is any concerned about only Subaru out of all people is able to overcome the effects of Glutonny Archbishop's power. And Felix is desperate to find a solution to Crusch, but, hello? Nothing about investigate anything of the only guy around who was not affected? |
|
Rob7 said: Well, this first episode just covered the ending of Arc 3, what remember me how great was the moment they choose to end the first season in the 24th episode. How many episodes do you think its going to be necessary until reach the moment I think in about ep 4, 5 or 6. |
| F for Rem everyone pretty much forgot about her |
 |
| I'm not sure if it's just me, but I hated Felix in this episode. He was pretty damn rude. |
 |
| The VAs nailed Ley & Regulus. Heck Ley is even more disgusting & vile with a voice. Honestly i cant wait till we reach Dona hyped to see what Whitefox has in store for us regarding animation highlights. |
| Well, if we could wait for Casca, we can wait for Rem. Subaru needs to fuck Gluttony up. |
| I honestly don't remember this anime writing being so average. The conversation between Subaru and Emilia at the end of the episode is so meh. Hopefully gets better, but idk. |

Felix is a backhanded, manipulative asshole in the novel, the anime cuts or changes a lot of this to make him more likable. Huh? No he isn't. I've read both the LN, WN and Ex 1 and that's complete mischaracterization of his character. He one of characters who hate dubious shit the most especially because of his past. Ferris is acting from a emotional stand point because he cares about Crusch that much and has never manipulated anyone. |
| Well damn. It has been three years since I watched the show and, while I can't recall details, I at least remember the important plot points. About the episode itself, it has been pretty intense. Good to see more about my girl Rem (even though it may be the only screentime she will receive for the whole season), and all the stuff about the Glutonny has got my interest. Let's see what this season has prepared for us, anime-onlies. |
Shengud said: I'm not sure if it's just me, but I hated Felix in this episode. He was pretty damn rude. I wouldn't say that he's rude, rather that he's trying to do whatever possible in order to protect Crusch. Even breaking off the alliance between the two parties objectively would make sense (from Felix's view) as Crusch could be used as a tool that is manipulated for the gain of Emilia. Throughout the world-building, it's been made pretty clear that the world of re:zero doesn't operate on the standards or morals of other anime, like Naruto, where working together with someone once would guarantee their lifetime friendship and loyalty to you. Felix is well aware that there is a massive amount of power essentially up for grabs, and that just because people appear to be friendly, doesn't mean they actually care about you, or those that you love. Although Felix's actions are driven by his fear and other emotions, his desire to cut off others who might potentially hurt Crusch is very legitimate, and isn't really rude or an unforgivable thing to want to do. |
| so repetitive 2/10 |
yah it look like it going to repeat same plot as s1 just save rem this time just let rem sleep 🥱 |
| The wait was long but at long last we already have the first episode of this second season! My highlights of the episode are these two moments: * When Rem is making her presentation first as a Roswalds Maid, but then quickly change to highlight that she's the one that takes care of the hero she loves: Subaru Natsuki. This is so powerful because Rem always viewed her as only the replacement of Ram, but now she's the one that's making a choice of be at the side of Subaru and taking care of him. Also... holy shit, our girl can fight. These two monster just wiped half of an army just by themselves in just 1 minute, but Rem putted it up for a fight. Shame there were 2 vs 1, I feel she could at least injured the gluttony guy. * When Subaru is with Emilia at Rem's room, he asked Emilia to watch the other side so he can break in a cry. Also Emilia hugging him from behind, that's the kind of support you really need from your beloved one at the really hard moments. Kinda exited for the next week episode. |
| Lol at Petra being jealous of Emilia. I thought Rem was dead at first and Subaru would have to do the whole thing again. Seems like they should have ended S1 on that note for a cliffhanger. Too bad that Crusch lost her memories considering she's in an important leadership position. I wonder if this will inhibit her competence somehow? The new archbishops look cool too, especially Gluttony. Just came from watching S1 for the first time last month so everything is fresh, interested to see what happens next! |
| It's been so long since I watched the first season- part of me forgot what their designs outside of Isekai Quartet looked like! Bold choice to incapacitate the show's most popular character in Episode 1, but I can respect it. |
 |
| These random new archbishops showed up out of nowhere without any prior appearances or foreshadowing. And their lines were generic and only there to establish that they are indeed the bad guys. It shows again why these Witch Cult archbishops don't work as villains. There were also a few parts of dialogue that present exposition even though a person wouldn't normally say so under the circumstances. It felt a bit off. For instance, I know whom you love, Rem. Why are you bothering to say it to a random villain that showed up? Also, now that Subaru has reformed himself to some extent, he is very close to a normal hero, which removes some of the initial selling point of the series. It is difficult to present this show as a criticism of escapism when the protagonist has become more of a normal hero. His escapism actually worked! 2/5 for this episode, but I will wait for more developments anyway. I'll pick up the pace on reading the LN as well. Let's see if it actually gets better. |

LocalDegenerate said: Where can i read the LN? honestly animation isn't something to complain about really, it still looks better than most of the other seasonals and marginally better than S/G 0, which annoys me greatly From Yen Press. There are 12 vols out now. |
| Operation save Rem starts! I cringed a bit during a few parts but it wasn't that bad. To be fair, solid first episode, can't wait for next week. |

Except they were foreshadowed all way back in season 1.    Petelgeuse or the story never claimed he was the only one. Also complaining characters being antagonistic is silly, but judging by how bad faith your post is it wouldn't have matter how they were written as you just turn it around vaguely complain about that instead. There were also a few parts of dialogue that present exposition even though a person wouldn't normally say so under the circumstances. It felt a bit off. For instance, I know whom you love, Rem. Why are you bothering to say it to a random villain that showed up? Because its not for them but for Rem steel herself for the fight despite tired earlier battle against the White Whale. Its also why its not exposition. Beyond its common in fights for warriors introduce themselves and station if simply. Reinhard & Elsa did to each otehr back in S1 Also, now that Subaru has reformed himself to some extent, he is very close to a normal hero, which removes some of the initial selling point of the series. It is difficult to present this show as a criticism of escapism when the protagonist has become more of a normal hero. His escapism actually worked! This literally makes no sense. There no such thing as normal hero to being with and this thin veiled excuse disparage Subaru's character development to fish more bogus criticism. Had he not developed you would turn around bash the show having him be static character with no growth which would be objectively bad anyway. 2/5 for this episode, but I will wait for more developments anyway. I'll pick up the pace on reading the LN as well. Let's see if it actually gets better. Given what you said I wouldn't bother. You are not serious interested or invested in this story to actually understand it, only to be contrarian because its popular. |
| We were just getting started with the recent victory joys, But Greed and Gluttony happened. Damn the suffering never ends. |
When someone asks me why I like anime, I'd say Just Because. |
swirlydragon said: THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Wow! Goddamn! What an epic fight! Loved Regulus voice acting and he is so goddamn OP. Probably my third fav character now. Regulus broke Crusch's arm and Rem's guard by just looking AT THEM?!! Wasn't Crusch's arm cut off? How did she had it attached? Was it Subaru's re: that changed it? |
| When someone asks me why I like anime, I'd say Just Because. |
| You know I still wish Subaru doesn't behave like such a creep around Emilia sometimes but at least he's grown over the course of the series. This is a good start to the season, with no down time and a big chip on Subaru's shoulder already. Please let this be a two-cour. |
