| OHSHIT looks like Typhon and Minerva aren't the only witches crashing the tea party this time around! And it looks like Roswaal has figured out Subaru's power. I think I've been spoiled on what might be happening here, but I have no idea where we're going from here because I thought Subaru was about to die in that witch's embrace right then and there. Maybe Garfiel saved Subaru because his scent is masked/muffled by it's overwhelming scent everywhere else? Or he just wants to kick Subaru's ass personally for setting it off somehow. Could Satella's soul have sensed that he spilled the beans all the way from wherever she is in the world? It's freaky knowing that her presence is capable of manifesting to such a strong degree, and she just chooses not to. Up until this point it felt like we were safe in the present with all her deeds done in the past (aside from Subaru's curse/"power"), but now she's here! D: Those witches were all certainly... unique though. Typhon the brat, Minerva the tsundere berserk healer, and Daphne the bdsm expert who only knows how to think with her stomach. "The whale and rabbit provide plenty of meat to eat, if you can kill them before they eat you first" what a horrible twisted logic. There's a tiny thread of sense in there, but it completely forgets that most people are just fodder to these monsters. And what was up with that bdsm spider coffin look? Was that to stop her from eating everything and everyone she saw just so she could carry a conversation for more than a minute? At the very least Subaru was able to get some useful information about the "Great" Rabbit out of her. But I'm absolutely terrified about what will happen if/when she pops up again. She looked pretty pissed/riled up when Subaru baited her about taking out her beasts. |
Freaking loved this episode! |

Rest in Piece, Miura. |
| -I'm glad they explained properly what were the Whale and Rabbits, and we got more info about Subaru's Return By Death and who brought him to this world. Why it was HIM of all people is still a mystery for now. -I want to see more scenes with the other witches. Minerva was so cute~~ i can predict the memes already: "Wait now Minerva is best girl?" "Always has been" -Isn't there a witch of Lust and one of Sloth too? If they exist, why didn't they show up? And is the Witch of Sloth gonna say "taida desu nee~" and remind Subaru of Petelguese? That would be pretty nice to see. -I'm beginning to see a pattern here. The witches caused disaster in this world, but they don't seen "evil". They just seen to have distorted visions of the way life works. Daphne for example created the Mabeasts so that nobody would die of hunger, but they also can defend themselves and constantly need to eat things like crazy so it did more ill than good. "Gluttony" really fits that personality of hers. -Satella sounds like Emilia because she is also voiced by Rie Takahashi, in case you guys didn't know already. No wonder she sounds so sexy- i mean scary. -Roswaal knows what's up. I saw that one coming, but it was still surprising to watch the scene. He said Subaru made a mistake, but what it was this time? Find out on next episode of Subaru-kun and the 7 witches! |

Typhon - Misaki Kuno Minerva - Mikako Komatsu Daphne - Nao Touyama Satella is voiced by Emilia's VA, Rie Takahashi Ok thanks..wonder they sound familiar also.. |
IS IT POSSIBLE THAT RoswaalI FROM THE Witch Cult? |

| This episode was torture in a totally different sort of way. For it felt like 5 minutes and I have to wait for another week again! Echidna is really frank about things, that's a plus point. But I am sure, despite having the knowledge of emotions, she cant relate with them. So she might end up hurting Subaru sometime in the future... Regarding the dead witches... Haha omoshiroi, this is how you display eccentricity! And the accompanying music was great too. Typhon fits the image of pride, because she feels she has the right to act as judge, jury (and possibly executioner) for any 'sinner'. Minerva is an oddity - she contradicts herself, and gives the impression of paradox. Interesting impression of wrath; though thanks to her 'concern', Subaru is back in one piece. Dorarara intensifies... Daphne gives me the final impression of the witches as powerful beings who wanted to make the world a better place, but with the wrong tools, that are the sins. She apparently held back a lot, drooling after Subaru, and takes his confrontation as a challenge. Coming back to the Sanctuary. I think I know what happened here. There is a reason WoE wanted to keep Rbd between herself and Subaru, but now it isn't anymore (unless Echidna already knew, which I can't still understand). Considering her aspects of envy, it is natural she will get triggered that someone else now knows the secret, and that too, a witch. Btw I would love Satella to do ASMR attacks on me anytime. God praise my headphones. Also great dress :0 Ros-chi knowing of RbD doesn't surprise me too much, though it might be that he doesn't know what exactly it does. Will suffer with Subaru waiting for next episode :( |

| i'm really glad we got a season two, every ep is making me want more. |
| i feel like i need to watch the first season again now that we definitely know Roswaal knows of subaru's return by death because i keep thinking back to the episode when Roswaal and Beatrice were about to fight each to the death over something subaru did, cant remember what it was exactly but Beatrice chose to defend subaru because she made a promise to help him, did her gospel tell her to do it? was Roswaal also following his gospel in that situation? because i remember subaru killing himself to avoid the faceoff so was that the intention? to force subaru to "redo" the event, also it makes sense why Roswaal is so carefree and leaving subaru to take care of a lot of things that happened on his land. also now that we know Beatrice is following her gospel does that mean subaru didn't actually find her library, she let subaru find it because her gospel told her? thats crazy to think majority of their interactions was because of what the gospel told Beatrice to do. i remember when subaru moved into the Roswaal mansion Beatrice came out of her library for dinner which surprised everyone but she said she did to see puck, i guess now we know she's lying, the gospel told her to come down. also i think that wasn't stella outside the graveyard might be my girl emilia, she wasn't there when subaru woke up, maybe that's what happens when she fails her test and subaru isnt there to wake her up |

| We got to see a few of the other witches and they all definitely have interesting and unique personalities. So those seemingly random rabbits from last episode were created by the witch of gluttony, along with the white whale and the black serpent (which I assume we'll see at some point down the road). Overall a very informative episode. Things seemed relatively chill until the last few minutes when Satella appeared. Her repeated "love you" was creepy as fuck lol. I really can't wait to see whats going to happen going forward after how this episode ended. |
| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. |
| Well, best show of the season is back for another week! Interesting conversation between Echidna and Subaru, she's been a really big part in the improvement of the series for me, and the appearance of the other witches was also quite intriguing, hope to see them more. This season has been amazing, I'm enjoying every minute of it! P.S: That "love you.. love you.." ASMR was really chilling xD. |

| Echidna really steals the show, tbh Emilia's spotlight is yet again stolen. First Rem steals the spotlight of season 1, now it's Echidna's turn. |
| Another awesome episode. I was a little disappointed with the interaction while Echidna allowed some of the other witches out and we got the breaking into pieces scene and then the love love scene with another witch and everything reset. Normally Id of consider it comedy / or brilliant story telling while even this witch cannot control the other ones, and just lap it up as part of the story. But unlike Subaru awakening this episode I'm afraid to express an opinion, because if you go against the witches you will be consumed forever. |
 To have you, Id give a billion lives A-Chan best girl |
| Three new witches! I already love with their personalities. Witch of Envy whispering "I love you" was both creepy and satisfying AMSR. Roswaal after the end credits?!  |
 did anyone laugh to themselves when they saw this dress? i've gotten used to anime clothing but how those this outfit work? did she order a coat with a hole in the chest area for her breasts to fit through for some air? |

| I wonder why it is that so many shows get punished for having long info dumps, but Re:Zero gets praised for them? The episode started of with a 7 minute dialogue scene. Doesn't really make for dynamic viewing. Yes, I know it's not new for the series, but I still would like to see some more and hear less as part of the storytelling process. |

| Satella really is witch of envy lol. Even in Subaru's continuous world he couldn't shout Return by Death or else the outside world is doomed XD. Jesus, just because he shouted Return by Death in Dona's world, Envy is going to end the world cuz she's so freaking jealous about Subaru cheating on her lolz. |
| Loved this episode! This season is great, and that Satella asmr caught me off guard. |
 |
| So many new character's faces this episode and so many questions or rather suspicions answered. The other 3 witches were interesting. Can't say much about the first one, she was the least interesting out of the 3. I didn't even consider that the Great Rabbit are classed as the same kind of creature as the white whale, as one witch, Witch of Gluttony Daphne, created them both. The reason for creating that rabbit though, that backfired much XD Minverva, Witch of Wrath looked like a magical girl. Also feel like she resembles Beatrice a lot! Once the Witch's tea pary is over and Subaru is back in the world, he gets face to face with Satella. My god that final "Aishiteru" was some good ASMR shit right there! That went through my headphones and send shivers down my back, holy shit! That post credit scene.... I had a feeling Roswaal knows more than he's letting Subaru known.. |
 |
| Oh wow, these witches really stand out xD. Echidna is my best girl so far this season but Minerva sure left a good impression on me. I love her already <3! And is that Nao Touyama who I hear as Daphne? YEEEEEESSSS!! Nice to hear her here too. I didn't expect to see Satella and even less to see her so corporeal. And it seems that she is going for Petra and Rem... Oh well, I guess she is not the witch of envy for nothing xD. That ending with Rosswall, so many mysteries... I love this show so much! |
| MAL should really implement a source readers thread. Maybe anime onlys would get spoiled less and us WN/LN readers could discuss without accidentally spoiling somethings |
 |
| Love the 3 new witches, but we need more Echidna! Also, did Daphne really create the White Whale and the Great Rabbit to be eaten by humanity in a effort to solve World Hunger?? Satella's appearance definitely caught me off guard. Roswaal is cultist? Why does he have a gospel?? I've always been suspicious of him but I didn't expect him to be holding a gospel. |
 |
| Damn..... This episode was crazy! Also, how does Roswaal know about Return By Death? |
 |
| We saw so many witches in this episode! and finally Satella too! (we barely saw her in the first season for some seconds). |
| oh so satella is emilia I remember watching episode 1 the first time Subaru met Emilia. when subaru dies for the first time and checkpoint. and satella changed her nickname to emilia. And suddenly Emilia didn't accept it when she was called Satella Moreover Emilia suddenly disappeared when Subaru woke up, and Emilia did not wake Subaru. I think Emilia's true form is Satella. and during the first episode s1 Subaru thought and wanted to meet the girl who brought him to isekai suddenly Emilia/Satella came and saved Subaru. I think this is a clue that Satella is indeed Emilia  |

SPIDEY_rockzzzzz said: Damn..... This episode was crazy! Also, how does Roswaal know about Return By Death? We had doubts, but judging by his monologue in the end of the episode he knows about Subaru's power. |
| Your missing out on quality ASMR from satella if you're not using speakers. Also, it seems all that shouting from the last episode has doomed the mansion and maybe this entire reset. |
