| Well, and we see her again. I wonder how Subaru can solve this efficiently. I'm expecting some baffling shit ! |

Lust, but she's not a witch |
| And there it is, Subaru's first death, God dammit! It was surprising to see Elsa again, though. And she's as sexy as ever! I appreciate Subaru's comment to Echidna, she really looks good in that uniform. I'm really loving her so far Poor Emilia, you could really feel how terrified she was. With Subaru's first death, I'm curious as to where his save point will be. |
| Damn, elsa savage. I didn't realize that was his guts until she showed up. I was like "Great, here we go again" |
"Perfection is perception. For me, humanity's imperfections is what makes it perfect"  |
Am I the only one intrigued by these red ciphers in the intro? They weren't there when they showed it the 1st time. |
| Interesting episode. And it seems Re:zero is back to its classic fashion, ending in a cliffhanger with Subaru dying while tripping over his own intestines, courtesy of Elsa who is back. |
  I want to know what it is, this 'sin' they say I've committed. |

North25 said: That's what I thought :-)he s a confused Web novel reader. I've just re-watched the episode and I have two messages to anime-onlies. First, when Subaru says something is not important, it's the exact opposite. Second, why no one is asking who hired Elsa this time ? |
 |
| God Rooswal really pissed me off this episode. He's hiding something about the cult AND Emillia. I'm assuming him referring to Subaru and himself as partners of crime means that Emilia has the potential to, or is destined to do something worthy of being called a crime, but he's just not telling anyone about it. I assumed Ram was smarter than this, what is her reason for trusting him so blindly? Also super curious about the new maid and her intentions. I didn't expect her to not be on good terms with Garfiel. I also wonder who her master is... Not to mention the question thing with Beatrice... We're just back to codes and tiny clues I guess. I wonder what Subaru can do to prevent Elsa from killing everyone though, and who is she working for exactly? |
 |
| So much to process in this ep! I always knew there was something devious about Roswaal but planning all those awful events?! That was a shock. Then there's the fact that all the doors in the mansion are open... so now I'm really worried about Betty! And last but most horrifying... Elsa is back and she is here to claim Subaru's bowels 😱 Return by Death has been brought back into play so we all know what that means; Subaru is gonna suffer some horrific shit going forwards! |

SynexEune said: The villagers were held hostage and weren't allowed to leave. Now that Emilia is doing the trails (and can't leave the Sanctuary) they are free to go (after some convincing by Subaru).Nice ep, things starting to heat up. One thing got me confused. How can the villagers and Subaru leave the sanctuary? And if they could do it all this time why havent they done it before? Is it because Emilia was in the trial? Didnt they say something about their souls staying inside the sancturay if they tried to leave? |

Didnt they say something about their souls staying inside the sancturay if they tried to leave? Because only "half bloods" are held captive. And Subaru, along with Otto is a just a normal human, not a demihuman. So they can pass... but all of the others can not (Emilia is half elf, Garfiel is half-beast ---- hence the scary teeth....) |

| Such a strong episode. 10/10 material Quite a lot of emotional moments between Subaru & Emilia and both characters are grow rapidly in their own ways. The music during the discussion with Rosvaal made me so excited for the OST to be released - just as the track playing when Subaru arrived at the mansion. Oh and finally after such a long time, our gut loving assassin is back. With this death of Subaru the series is back to its theme and strong selling point. What a thriller it is going to be to investigate and solve this situation. Small side note: it is so impressing how they integrate CG models in this show. They are quite common but do not stand out as much and still add some flavour to scenes like 3D-PAtrasche in the forest. |

| Loved the conversation between Echidna and Subaru. So Echidna created that world based on Subaru's memories, that's pretty impressive. So he passed one of the trials, while Emilia keeps failing them. Roswaal is an intriguing and mysterious character, the conversation with subaru was pretty tense, I was literally waiting for Subaru to punch him, until it happened and Ram stopped him. Shame :P Elsa is back to cut open Subaru's stomach once again, not going to lie, I had forgotten she was still around! Stuff is getting interesting, I wonder where Subaru will "respawn" again. Another issue I spotted, all doors in the mansion were open. Which means no way of being able to run into Beatrice. These damn cliffhangers though, gonna be a long week once again XD |
 |
| Echidna's existence in this story blows the whole thing wide open for me. This should get interesting quick. If someone mad a quit snippet going from the introduction of Rem and Ram to that scene of Ram saying: "I don't know who you're talking about." would be a quick wtf. |
 |
| A slow but good episode, things should pick up from next episode though cuz Elsa's back to kick some Subaru ass |
| This anime shit is addictive |
| These days I am tired of writing much...:( I think the character animation went up a bit in this episode. Emilia couldn't face her past, maybe it's an extended version of that OVA and her identity. Father? I did remember seeing a man with pointy ears in the OVA flashback, but Puck also poses as a father, so I can't say for sure. Echidna is knowledgeable, but it seems she is alienated by humane thoughts, like when Subaru thanked her. I am really worried about the trouble she might cause Subaru - she might give him emotional trauma even without the intent of doing so. Considering the schemesome Ros-chi is her fanboi, I am sure she has her own ways of 'using' Subaru while not caring about his feelings (cause she can't comprehend them). Now I'll love it if Subaru comes up next time with a thicc armor covering his bowels |

 Well, well, well Look who's back..... So, did they actually got outta the barrier, if yes , then how???? |
| And so it begins yet again! Good thing that white fox reconnected a few things they skipped over in ep 3, I guess it's because they want each episode to end on a cliffhanger, which I absolutely don't mind Man, I just wish this wasn't a split cour, because the absolute best parts will come then and it'll be hard for me to not spoil my brother about what's about to come (: |
 |
| this is just speculation After watching the ep is it just me or does Roswell seem very similar to Subaru, after thinking about it he acts very similar to the way Subaru acted pre ep:18 as if no one else mattered but Emilia, he even seems to know more about Subaru the Subaru does self by state that he knew Subaru would rise to save Emilia.... so is Roswell a failed Subaru from another timeline?  is this foreshadowing or am i losing my sanity |

swordmaster2551 said: She is a highly skilled (and most likely highly priced) assassin. Why would she go out of her way just to fuck with Subaru? Just for fun? Well, she could do that but why wait till he returns to the Mansion and not attack him earlier? Second, it is actually reasonable for Elsa to just want to fuck with subaru given their last... interaction... at this point, although the OP certainly suggests more to it |

| ahh, of course. Wouldn't be Re: Zero without Subaru dying a few times here and there lol. It seemed pretty random to me, but I'm sure it will be explained. I also don't understand how Subaru was able to take the trail and still leave? I thought to qualify for it means that ur half blood and can't leave or something like that. |
| Great Episode and glad to see Else back doing her thing. It took me a while to figure out what he tripped over. I wonder where the reset point will be. |

| Great episode. I feel like Garfield is being more friendly compared to his web novel counterpart but maybe it's just my imagination. |
Lanhikari said: There are noticeable differences between WN and LN in arc 4. This is how he was in the LN in volume 10.Great episode. I feel like Garfield is being more friendly compared to his web novel counterpart but maybe it's just my imagination. |

I can come up with two theories: 1. Echidna was trying to figure out Subaru using those trials. So he recieved a VIP pass. He can undergo those trials as per his choice OR 2. Plot Twist! This is the 2nd trial. Though I can come up with a lot of counter points that this shouldn't be true. |

fullofregrets09 said: Antearion said: Re:Zero the god of cliffhangers! Elsa is back! crazy how long it has been since she first showed up. I wonder how she made it so far into the mansion. I would think Beatrice would had stopped her. Also I would like to see Emilia past. I don't recall us hearing about her Father, but I would like to see what's terrifying her. I will assume Subaru will go back two days from now and try to convince Garfiel to go back earlier in time. A slow ep, but the end got me hyped. Also Echidna did look good in that school uniform. If you haven’t already, watch the Frozen Bond OVA, it’s pretty much necessary at this point (at least imo), it will give you a little more insight into Emilia’s past. Forgot about that OVAs. I'm going to check them out. |
 |
| I'm guessing Elsa didn't...let it go.. Sorry I'll be on my way out. |

Sherlock_Holmes said: It hasn't been revealed, yet.Welp, I do not know if they mentioned this before and I forgot it, but Who hired her the FIRST time? |

Sherlock_Holmes said: Can someone explain why the crystal the Fredrica gave to Emilia almost exploded? Shouldn't it grant them the permission to pass without any problem? Or could they pass without it?and Why didn't Subaru qurstion Fredrica intentions at that time? The crystal didnt explode it just teleported Subaru to the Graveyard location the moment they passed the entrance zone. There was no way to ask Fredrica cause how would they. They only managed to go back because they had a long discussion with Garfield that was skipped in this episode so they could bring the villagers back to their homes. |
