| Good episode, but not the best. I really didn't like that Subaru got off-model just after the "I know hell" |
| this episode was ok I love Subaru's words to Garfiel Subaru is the strongest human by mentally, if others are like Subaru I'm sure they will definitely go crazy |
"the greatest anime fight"  |
ZoroZoldyck said: TeamDalaiLana said: Totally agree the art got a little wonky the last few scenes. And subaru is always looking different design wise which is kinda frustrating because everything else is great.2 third of this episode was great (Satella scenes, the crystal scenes and the sanctuary experiments) but the end went down hill quick for me art wise Ngl. Subaru looks very inconsistent this episode lol. Corona strikes again???  It’s weird to me how he’s the only character shape shifting. I wonder if his design/proportions is hard to nail down between different animators. All of the other characters look the same. And the fact that we’re reaching the climax of the mid way point of this arc. I’m a little worried about the upcoming episodes (art wise). There are some really important scenes. The story is going to be great no doubt about that, but I don’t want wonky faces to ruin important scenes. Just a reminder they make this episode inside their home because covid 19. Not in studio. So they probably fix the animations in BD version. |
| Hm, Emilia actually being able to comfort Subaru, when she just underwent trial.. Wonder, if maybe Emilia helping someone could help her become stronger as well.. If that would help her overcome her past as well.. Maybe?.. I wonder.. Sometimes you can gain confidence through other things, at least it was even impressive how Emilia was suffering after trial herself, but managed to calm down and comfort Subaru.. Well, if Echidna was performing experiments on creation of person, experimenting with personalities, emotions, soul.. That's quite impressive research.. Ethical questions as well are there, of course.. But still it's quite an impressive thing she manages to do.. Almost a god.. Though, at the same time it's also mystical really.. Like, it seems she was able to do one things, but wasn't able to do other things.. And Beatrice is going to join and help Subaru now?.. Well, I like Betty, so I'm glad to see this.. ;P |

| Subaru looking determined asf rn we all know he's gonna be back to crying next episode but sure Subaru you're allowed to try |
| This anime shit is addictive |
novus_mihi said: Only respond if it isn't a spoiler. Please be kind. I have two doubts: 1) Why was Emilia not devastated? 2) Why was Elsa not at the mansion even though Subaru was (approx) half a day late? Emillian said: novus_mihi said: Only respond if it isn't a spoiler. Please be kind. I have two doubts: 1) Why was Emilia not devastated? 2) Why was Elsa not at the mansion even though Subaru was (approx) half a day late? 1) The fear of her trial almost got her but when she saw a "true terror" on Subaru's face with his teeth and hands trembling she realized is not the time for that and took care of him who was visible in a worse state than her. 2) He wasn't late this time. From what i remember he had everytime a 3 days countdown till Elsa would have arrived so this time he got there with at least 1 or maximum 2 days before her. 1. Yes, although the "convenience of plot" helped a bit in the change of mood of Emilia. In the 1st timeline Subaru woke Emilia, she was blinded by absolute terror and could not even pay attention in Subaru state. Both of them would be there suffering. BUT, maybe Echidna took it more "lightly" with Emilia this time. The moment Subaru return inside the Tomb, even if that Equidna was not the same Equidna that was in the previous timelime, she instantly can read Subaru's memories. Echidona can do it, we already know from the story until this moment. ------- 2. Let's watch the Episode 6 again, and compare with Ep. 10: a) Subaru wake up with Emilia. Check b) They leave the tomb and meet Garf and Ryuzu. Check. c) They have a reunion with Ram and Otto in Ryuzu's house. Check. d) - 1st difference: Ep. 6. Subaru have the conversation with Roswaal. Ep. 10. Subaru went in the same night to Ryuzu's Temple. e) now back to the same rails. Subaru rests and wake up early to start his trip to the Mansion. Check. f) In the morning of the 1st day after savingpoint: Ep. 6. Subaru left the Sanctuary with Ram. Ep. 10. Subaru left the Sanctuary alone. So, they are now in the same day of Ep. 6. The main difference: - Subaru may have arrived a bit earlier because Patrasche was carrying less weight. - Subaru hurried to dispatch Frederica and Petra from the mansion, before even enter in the house. Next week we will discover if it was enough to save Petra, but if you have read the past chapters of the Light Novel, you know that Subaru already recognized that Elsa and Beast Master are around the Mansion waiting for the attack, that is why he will try to fight, and not flee together with Frederica and Petra. |

| Seeing the Witch of Envy looks just like Emilia is eerie. Anyway, that face-off between Garfiel and Subaru proves that at the end of the day, Subaru had it worse. I cannot wait to see what event will unfold at the mansion. |
 |
| I'm a bit confused about that hankerchief. How the hell did it turn into a blade for Subaru to kill himself with? Is it cause of what Echidna did? She said she's gonna mess with it a little, so she gave it the power to transform into a blade? Hm, weird. MegamiRem said: Welp a date with Petra, now that's something to look forward too. pretty sure that's a flag though curvedtree said: Subaru is the cringiest protagonist I have ever seen, Re:Zero would have been a so much better anime if the protagonist wasn't so lame. re zero wouldn't be the same if the mc wasn't subaru oblivious_22 said: I don't know what they are talking about in the entire series and what is the connection of echidna, Emilia and satella, cuz they all look almost identical, In the first season I almost believed that the Echidna was the real antagonist in the series but now it turns out that it was satella, really I'm little clueless here about the story can anyone explain me why Echidna killed all other other witchies and what kind of role is she even playing in the series, I'm really not getting it and why satella, echidna and Emilia look almost so similar especially emila and satella, dude, have you paid any attention at all during the first season? Satella is the witch of envy who killed all the other witches and gave subaru the power of Return by Death and is the one who love him. Echidna is the witch of greed and she didn't show up in season 1 at all. Satella is the antagonist, Echidna is not (at the moment). And the reason why Emilia looks like Satella is still a mystery. Also, they do bare an resemblance to Echidna but you should still be able to tell them apart from their colors, design, and clothing. |

| Awesome ep.! "I know Hell" was just 🔥 |
 |
| Just ending it like that was funny. But yeah I actually enjoyed this more than I thought I would. |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| Subaru has 3 episodes left to nuke the Great Rabbit, with the holy hand grenade. But in the meantime… UNLEASH THE LOLLI ARMY!!! |
Adorelis said: So, let me get this straight. Garfiel knows something that could benefit Subaru, but he's withholding that information? So, why does he need to do that? Subaru clearly wants to save everyone.AnimeNerd99 said: Can anyone explain what that conversion between Subaru and Garfiel was all about at the end? basically Subaru points out that Garfield was lying, because if he really had the witch scent on him, why Garfield didn't react with hostility when he got out of the tomb?. He puts that in front of him, basically telling him that he's not scared of his strength. |
| |
| next step, Beako, the ending of part 1 of this season will be awsome. |
 |
| When Subaru said to Satella he would have an easier time loving the other witches...BRUH.. Did you just really say that to the person that gave you your ability to "stay alive"? Is it truly wise to piss her off even more? If not for Echidna's suicide handkerchief you would have been trapped in the shadow realm forever lol. Also sneaky sneaky Echidna pulling shenanigans... I understand now why she is chaotic neutral. I thought we would get a concrete answer if Emilia was really possessed or not but since Subaru said he will save her that probably confirms it I guess. I wonder if Emilia was somewhat conscious during the process, if yes, good thing it's a new loop already.... |

Fade_ said: How much blablabla can an episode fit!? The fact that Subaru has died so many times and still be scared of such small things is flawed since its natural to get numb over time. The fact that Subaru keeps reacting sad before he has seen if his starting point has been moved is flawed. Undeserved scoring and hype, albeit the underlying story is still worth something, the overlayed flood of random small-talk and unnatural emotions is frustrating since you can't empathize continuously. This criticism is so stupid. You don't just "get numb" over the acting of dying repeatedly. Dying isn't a pleasant experience no matter how it ends up happening, and Subaru not only has to die in some of the most gruesome ways possible, he also has to live with the memories of each of those deaths. I don't see how you can even argue that he should be perfectly fine mentally. |

| damn Satella still going with her ASMR lol what a way to start an episode, and she really looks like Emilia. i dont know many people arguing that wasnt Satella but Emilia possessed by her and yet her dress and hairclip is different than Emilia's interesting stuff with Ryuzu and we are going back to the mansion again. to the LN readers, are we going to see Satella again in this part 1 after this episode? she really got me excited |
 |
| So as a non novel reader, i woudn't be surpiresed if Emilia is indeed satella, but before she gone mad for some reason, maybe because subaru failed somehow. or maybe she is emilia from another time ( If stories ) where subaro indeed failed, and thuse she was born, as witches do live the time not linearly as everyone else, it doesn't sound crazy if the WITCH satella was created in the future and for some reason want back in time to do everything she has done. also would make more sense why she is in love with subaro, but then it would beg the question how the hell subaro got there in the first loop. |
| woke up today seeing such a huge reaction on Reddit to this episode had me thinking shit was popping off non stop outside the first few mins it was surprisingly more chill with a lot of info drops still overall decent episode subaru really had a line that only he could say dead as seriously at the end there. though that scene has me questioning more people now do they know too? refusing to believe Emilia and Satella are the same that seems too predictable from the start there'd have to be more to it than that but it's strange how 3 of the witches look too much alike |
 |
| god, these episode are genuinely getting better and better as it nears to the end. Satella's whole deal rn really gives me the shivers, but ohohoh she did not like Subaru admitting that another witch was better then her, nope she fucking YOINKED him the minute he called Echidna the better witch. Echidna's save as well was good, that situation Subaru was in, could that one be considered a game ender for him? Dosen't look like Satella was gonna release him anytime soon, and he was pretty much immobile. Real interesting reveals of Ryuuzu true being and identity, as well as hinting at maybe some big later coming Garfiel lore drops. Honestly, this episode was really good at showing the more bad-ass, thoughtful planning and connecting the dots side of subaru that has been, really developing these recent episodes. Like after Garfiel's little out burts, and Subaru just looking him dead in the eye and saying "I'm the only one who needs to know hell" ooooow now this, this i'll give him. That was a fucking line and a half especially from Subaru, on god that has to be one of the hottest lines in the book. Petra suddenly wanting a date was unexpected but extremely cute, happy to see where that goes. That last Beatrice scene felt, extremely reflective and peaceful? Like two friends who haven't seen each other for years, who've both gone through some shit, just sit down once again and have a chat like the old times. |
 "yabe." |
Ep. 10, summarized. It is time to get a taste of your own medicine, Subaru. (btw, the Director's Cut version will have a lot of work with this season) |

IHadALifeB4This said: The anime kinda left out the part in which But that could've been cut out for suspense and to be revealed later. This season has been amazing. Mod Edit: Added spoiler tags; please hide plot details. |
| Was expecting the episode to end on Subaru's "I know hell", ended being a full episode without even a transition after the last second. And such a last second! And that's another week to wait, sigh. |

Mod Edit: Added spoiler tags; please hide plot details. This passage of the Light Novel (not spoiler, already covered by this ep) about that Satella Jealousy rampage can make more clear: --------------- At this moment, the "VALID" timeline of Season 2 for Subarow is: Ep. 1 - From zero to 03m.45s, 04m.12s to 10m.54s and from 14m.20s forwards (almost complete). Ep. 2 - Complete. Ep. 3 - Complete. Ep. 4 - Complete. Ep. 5 - From zero to 05m.55s only. *(jump) Ep. 10 - From 4m.46s to end. Holly Moth*ucker, it is the longest sequence of "erased" episodes of all the series until this moment. I guess i will prepare a Rob's Cut version of season 2, for people who dont like Time Loop tropes. :D The best Re:Zero experience. Btw, i guess it is obvious that this was the last time Subaru returned to Tomb Checkpoint. |

| Hype energy is low, but we're getting the dialogue-showcase going on which is still enjoyable since we're getting to know more characters' personality and information. This episode feels like it needs to take a breather from the very hype episodes. Overall, Subaru is getting more mature than who he was in S1 |
