For a second I thought the Whale wouldn't come since some circumstances changed from the previous timeline.

The negotiation is a success.
lol at Rem and the Land Dragon.
Dat pound.
lol at the ringtone.
Okay. You can turn it off now.

Good 1st episode. So how come they can remember all the people that died by the White Whale and others don't? Hmm... Oh well, future events shall explain everything.

Well, MC at last invented something - very controversial agreement with another candidates for throne, I bet Emilia won't be happy because MC just do what he want to. The whole situation is unreal since Emilia in palace officially said that MC isn't her knight, so in fact he hasn't any rights to speak for her, especially making such deals where involved that clown-mage - the owner of the land. Why so much drama about knight-lady who was killed by White Whale since such victims are erased from reality, nobody can to remember her, even her husband. Also another slip-up from author, MC has save-points in apple store and in bed, but after attack of White Whale he didn't die and woke up in bed and was killed soon after that but SOMEHOW reloaded in apple store. Author hasn't any working rules for main and only one feature of anime. Pathetic...

Hm, if the White Whale killed old man Astrea's wife, shouldn't she have been erased from existence and his memory, or am I missing something here? In fact, not anybody should be able to remember any of the people the White Whale has killed all this time. (Come to think of it, it's rather strange why only Subaru could remember Rem after she was killed by it...)


depends did whale swallow her or di she died in the battle wounds

Bruuh, I was so scared for Subaru and Rem that there's a possibility that the White Whale might not appear, so they'll turn out to be liars and punished for it. Jesus Christ. Glad it appeared the moment Subaru's phone started ringing. Goddamn. Goddamn.

Lol at Rem seeing the dragon as her rival. Haha.

Weird that his cellphone still has a battery despite how many days already passed. Hahaha.

A lot of people wanted to kill the White Whale, hence two of the candidates for the throne decided to help get rid of it.

Ok this is what I'm talking about, this episode was pretty good compared to the last few episodes which were cringey as fuck.

Here Subaru wasn't being pathetic and the emotional scenes here felt right, they were subtle with those emotional scenes compared to the previous episodes that had those cringey forced emotional scenes.

This episode headed in the right direction. I hope the rest of the episodes are as good as this one.

The point of the previous episodes was to be cringy. He gets shaped up slowly over the course of the series. The right direction was already there from the beginning.

-The madlad did it! He finally learned how to craft a well-formulated plan and how to negotiate. He's been through so much and has finally matured a bit from his experiences :D I also like how he had three things to offer Crusch in their negotiation: The goodwill of the Treasurer, mining rights, and the location and time of the White Whale.He didn't just approach with one thing and expect it to be sufficient. As for Anastasia, he didn't give the info away for free this time around, although did he tell her that the Treasurer was in communication with Crusch or was just talking about the White Whale sufficient I wonder.

-There's the cell phone coming into play once more at last, and for bargaining again as was expected.

-Look at our boy negotiate a multi-faction alliance to slay a 400 year old menace and lead the charge into battle. Glorious.

-The battle against the Witch's Cult should be coming up shortly. Curious how that will enter the fray.

-Rem :3

-Curious as to Roswaal's reaction when he discovers that Subaru unilaterally exchanged the mines away, although given what he was able to do I can't imagine he'll be too upset. Speaking of which, what exactly has he been up to, and where was Beatrice after the massacres in his previous iterations?

Roswaal left for some unnamed place (in anime; it was stated where he went in the LNs) and is there since.
Beatrice was probably still in the Library.

And once again the information Subaru gathered in his previous "lives" was pretty valuable. I knew that he would at least learn from the encounter with Anastasia how to deal with Crusch.

So great to see Subaru learning from his past lives in that negotiation. Man what a tense ending tho. In the back of my mind I had this fear that it wouldn't show up and everything would go to shit for Subaru again so you know I was anxious as that silly cell phone alarm went off. Really well done by White Fox.

Well that was a long road to get to that point where he was able to use all his informations and crafting a perfect plan. I was surprised how much things he had to offer to Crusch. And everything had high value, so definitely nothing someone would reject. Cruschs ability to see if someone lies strengthened Subarus statements even more. Win win situation I would say :)

Poor Wilhelm, so like a lot of other people he lost his wife to the white whale and wants his revenge.

The scene with the rivalary between Rem and the land dragon was funny :D

So refreshing to see such an positive episode after all those cruel episodes before. That ring tone at the end lol. I guess it's show time now. Let's see how they will handle this monster.

Subaru redeemed himself in this episode. He still has a lot of growing up to do but I applaud for doing well, Rem too.

Wow, to think that many people wanted to kill that whale. It's been around for that long and they're finally going to get the chance to take it down.

Also, I can't forgot to mention how fucking adorable Mimi and Hetaro are. I love them so much!

Lol! I was worried nothing will happen in there and that he will only give those people falls hope!🤣 It took a bit while for the whale to appear. To the point the sound of the ringtone got too noisy in my ears.

She got him back. If you understand the characters well enough, you'd know she did!

Lmao that ringtoned really got into my nerved till finally that big white whale revealed itself. Its time to hunt!

Also, as stated in the previous episode, its no doubt that Subaru's after the third death, he finally strengthen his own feelings and used his brain more to be abled to negotiate with that difficult people. Unfortunately, it might be compressed with the whole harsh path he chose to reached that point. A little dissapointment. But, okay, i don't lied, Good job, Subaru. Atleast your shit dead were not useless at all. So, yeah, lets hunt that shit down!

I’m actually worried that the whale will not show up. That hype on the battle was really done good, especially with that ring tone, it makes me all nervous lol.

And I’m now rooting for Lady Crusch to win the election. I think she’s gonna be a good leader and so far the best fit among the candidates.

While a whale hunt seems kind of random especially after the events of the last episode, I think it’s cool and makes sense so I’m on board. Forgive me for I’m slightly lost; Subaru wants the whale gone so he can have safe passage to get emelia and everyone in that town to safety... right? Oh wait never mind he just wants an alliance to keep emelia safe in general- sorry I forgot. Still kind of recovering from the last episode over here. I’m just gonna try to take the next episode seriously because I watched gigguks video on this and I think I’m gonna be laughing

The episode for me was mostly just kind of there but it was nice seeing a refreshed Subaru after a while, and the use of the ringtone to indicate the White Whale's arrival as well as the charge was pretty badass, even if I didn't care much for the actual White Whale subjugation subplot originally.
