Oh my little Beatrice. So adorable. Subaru and Beatrice's argument made me cry.
Also Otto is the MVP. The real bro.

Pretty disappointing episode. After the events of the previous episode, I was hoping we would be able to spend more time with Beatrice - and learn what's really going on with her - only for the scene to end so suddenly. Hell, we've barely even seen her this season.

Otherwise, Subaru was imprisoned and apparently, it's revealed that he and Otto are friends. Okay, great. Can we move on from the Sanctuary already?

Beatrice caring for Subaru is rather surprising.
But having to see Subaru in despair is just insane.
Elsa can go fuck off m8!


Garfiel taking Subaru as hostage is a dick move, my guy.

Otto came in klutch as best jobro...uhhhh bro.

Finally had a time to catched up this entire series in a quarter three of these season for the sake of my poor life. Actually i can't enjoy this much. Because somehow this episode kinda had a slow pace design by taking the whole 'Eugene' thing in the end too much. Was that really necessary?

So far, the route that Subaru took was quite steep because many things had changed wildly. However, from the results of the changes, I can find out more about the motives for each character. Like Beatrice and her handbook. Was that book that made Roswaal aware of Subaru's power 'restart'? Was that book that people called it than can makeup some premonition about the future? Well, to find out more, the next episode looks even more interesting than i can anticipated. Because, yeah, now Subaru tried to survived against the madness of Garfiel.

To be quite surprised another changed of event led to the event when Garfiel confronted Subaru straight into the main point. They knew Subaru the member of Archbishops. Fuck the spoiler that spread wild in the Internet. If i can't reach them, i should be surprised when they told it right away. Subaru's look shocked too. It seems he still couldn't figure out what happened and could only link that shit by some Echidna explanations from before. The time had come. Lets continued how long this wild route ended up.

Ah, another information about Frederica origination and why she could be free exit the forest. Well, its understandable. That assasin cruel lady could enter the forbidden room of Beatrice, the logic explanations from some previous episode somehow telling the truth. I must say thank for it to happened too. Because, yeah, Subaru's must restart whatever happened no matter what! The lady assasin was too strong to handled! Otto and the ability of his hearing somehow surprised me too. Was he showed that ability in a previous episodes before? I don't think it had a time to be showed before. Well, thats quite a unique additional information for getting Subaru get out of that miserable forest first. Or at least restart it and fuck them off later. Idk the future!

As an anime only watcher, this episode surely made me so curious about the whole mystery, when in another side i am trying hard to control my anger because of how slow the event concluded in just one episode. Lets see the next one if anything big happened again. The arcs of Emillia and Rem absent continued.

Thats it for now. XD

Garfiel and that betrayal though. Seems like Subaru is always making enemies with his friends during at least one life in a cycle.

I'm particularly looking forward to seeing more about Beatrice. I guess we'll get more info on her later on I suppose.

Need to know more about beatrice.

Ok dude, I like Garfiel but I forgot about the fact that he's always a dick to people. That was quite a twist when Subaru is abducted and restrained, suspected to be a member of the witch cultists.

Oto has always just 'been there' since S1, but damn, this ep made him so much more lovable. How rare is it to 'just be friends' in this world? Every time Subaru meets a new character, they're either allies or enemies, not accounting for the ones that's closest to him like Rem and Emilia, almost all the characters Subaru met are not friends of his. But wow, here comes Oto strolling in and proclaiming that he's here to save Subaru because he's Subaru's friend. What a fucking homie! Nothing but respect for this boi!

Otto what a cutie <3 he’s come a long way since season 1, when he freaking pushed Subaru off the cart lmfao. Proud of my boy

I’m confused about Beatrice, was the Gospel that same book she’s been reading religiously since s1? That we always see her carrying? Subaru just now noticed it was a gospel? Or am I misunderstanding? I also wonder who her mother is, it kinda makes it sound like she’s talking about the witch. Plus it seems she was friends with Betelgeuse... but I may be wrong

Also I still don’t understand the whole “trapped in the sanctuary” thing.... where did that rule come from? Are Garfiel and the old pink Loli responsible for the rule or do they just enforce it? Why’d Frederica send them there if they were just gonna get trapped? Why did Roswaal and rem even go??

aside from that little confusion I have been enjoying this arc p well. Hopefully this is the loop where Subaru can save everyone! Don’t have much hope but you never know with this show lol

I just checked Season 2 Episode 2 and Season 2 Episode 7 and they are different books.

They are trapped in Sanctuary because Garfiel is holding the Villagers, Ram, Roswaal, Otto, Emilia and Subaru as hostage and wants Emilia to free the sanctuary by completing the trials.
laputia said:

In Season 1 during the battle with Betelgeuse and the Witch Cult, the villagers were evacuated to the Sanctuary, Subaru and Emilia wanted to go pick them up, Frederica only helped them get there. I skimmed through Episode 24 and the reason why Ram and Roswaal went to the Sanctuary was because they were evacuating the villagers there.

I hope this helps! Also I'm glad to hear you're enjoying Season 2!

Awww Otto is so precious, he needs to be protected at all costs.
And Ram letting out a sassy laugh, now thar's unexpected, but very welcome.

However I'm being more and more disappointed in Subaru. In the first season, I could justify his breakdowns by aknowledging everything he was going through, but now... The guy's just not evolving. Sure, he is wiser than he initially was, but aside from that it's always the same thing : he suddenly gains confidence, something bad happens, he has a breakdown, something better happens, he makes a self-deprecating comment, etc, etc... All the time. When will that stop ?
Plus, here what were his reasons for being self-deprecating ? He didn't understand Otto wanted to be his friend, so that makes him hate himself once again ? That's just dumb, and forced. I don't think I'll ever jump on the Subaru hate train but I understand a bit more what makes people so annoyed at him.

Lastly, I of course have to mention Beatrice. Is it really this ? Is she really controlled by the Gospel ? That'd explain many things, even why she always says "I suppose", but at the same time I can't believe it's nothing else. That'd ruin so much of her character and it really doesn't look like it is what is going on. The Gospel is half-controlling her, sure, but entirely ? No, there's got to be something else.
Well, either way, it was sad to see her break her facade. And I was pretty mad at Subaru yelling at her. I understand him but... No. You don't yell at Betty. You just don't.

Friends are not a calling but a relationship.

I thought that Subaru would be safe in Beatrice's world but it wasn't. What is Beatrice? Is she's a witch? Why did his actions have to follow the directions from the black book, The black book actually belongs to Beatrice or Battlegeus, I don't know either but it is very similar to Battlegeus'. It was a long debate between Subaru and Beatrice, Beatrice was still stubborn and still followed the directions from the book. How did those oppai girl enter Beatrice's world, hhmm ...

Actually they are not brothers, they are indeed brothers but different fathers, Therefore Frederica was able to get past the Barrier. Subaru was betrayed and it was unexpected, I thought the antagonist here was just an oppai girl but it wasn't. This is very interesting and I'm still up to eps 7, I'll be watching eps 8 soon

And also 10/10 for this eps

Subaru forgot to ask Beatrice what Roswaal wanted him to ask her.

Hmm, does that mean Beatrice is the daughter of the Witch of Sloth since she's so fixated on that gospel owned by Betelgeuse?

I'm really curious on who hired Elsa.

Looks like this is a bad restart. Subaru just made enemies of the mixed bloods. This ain't gonna end well.

What if his check point got updated as soon as he entered Beatrice library? oh man, Ram, Fredericka and Petra dead. I think it would've made the story extremely interesting though.

Ughhh seriously,I fucking HATE Garfiel. I know he changed because the story wrote it that way and now he's on the good guy side, but seriously F this 13 year old POS. I hope he dies a brutal death somewhere down the line, he trapped people in the Sanctuary, Brutally killed the villagers and Otto in another timeline, and is literally a straight scumbag piece of shit because he has mommy issues. He got off WAAAY too light for what he did and when he tied up Subaru omfg I got soo angry. Also, Subaru not forming a contract with Beatrice IMMEDIATELY was sooooo stupid. He knew she'd "side with him" in what like Episode 4-5? Btw I seriously have NO idea why Garfiel needs Emilia to pass the trial, she's a stranger to him with someone he hates(Roswall) so WHY does he need her to do it specifically?

Otto carried this episode by the end, he's still a character I don't particularly care for in this series but it was a nice moment with him helping Subaru out like that, along with Ram. I like how Garfiel despite being a bit annoying for me, is like an outlier in each loop as he feels different in ways and throws the whole thing off just a bit. Beatrice was interesting too at the start, although a bit ambiguous, more will come of her soon. She did feel terrified when seeing Subaru die like that so there's more to her than what meets the eye from this episode. The rest of the episode felt a bit stagnant to me, which is a habit pretty much with Re:Zero this season were parts will feel interesting and parts will feel forgettable. Overall, not bad but not great either. Am interested in the next episode though as Garfiel with the transformation at the end wants to dish out an ass kicking for Subaru's escape.

some lesser side characters got highlighted this episode which was nice to see. some wholesome moments between subaru and beatrice and otto. there wasn't really much going on though, just small things that slightly change the circumstances but the last couple episodes have kind of lacked that really fast pace and development that the show has had up until now so hopefully we get back into that soon

Otto is best waifu. its really fucked up that Subaru got tied up and shit, like I was lowekey starting to not absolutely hate Garfiel. Emilia is 100% not stable enough for the trial. She should know damn well that she froze her family and just get over it. I thought she might've been more complex than we've been lead to believe, but now I really do question why Roswal wants her as the King

I can't believe what Beatrice was saying though, she was just following the Gospel.

Given the timing, I don't think this is going to go any better than the last time, so it might need to be redone again.

Subaru laughing it off his frustration with sadness is so refreshing for some reason. That non-stop laughter was the closest to emotional freedom he was able to express in whole second chance runs. He kept on repeating, faking every bit of his moments for the mission of saving everyone.

First Rem, now Garfield. It's a real shame Subaru didn't get transported into this world with the same magic powers everyone else has, because they wouldn't be able to freely vent all their sadistic urges on this defenceless guy using "the scent of the witch" as a pretext then. Subaru's Return by Death ability also means he's obviously proven trustworthy many times before, and instrumental in manipulating events to favour his allies, yet none of them offer him any trust or cordiality in return.

Very good episode, so it was because of the Gospel that Beatrice is strange or this same increase/worsened the problems that she has
I have my doubts that she has done everything she did because it is written in the gospel, because this book arrived to her a short time ago unless she already had a copy for a long time and simply dedicated herself to following what was written. .. I don't know, here it was difficult for me to read Beatrice... it is also possible that she is denying to herself that a simple human came to her haha, so everything she does is for her mother... mmmm mom, who are you? (sarcasm)
The witch's smell takes center stage again, for a moment I had forgotten that certain people/species can smell it so it's normal for them to distrust it and it's nice that Subaru has a friend (and funny that it's the same one that cast him from the cart to save himself haha), poor thing... it's been so long since he had one that he forgot what it was like
Garfiel got angry, time to see how they manage to get out of the barrier

PS: To all this, the damn question has not yet been said haha ​​although normal with everything that is happening
