They even pan the screen towards the marks. So it's not established that he hates just Subaru. We really don't know what the puppy's motive is for all this. (if it even really is a puppy bc he's stupid OP) But it could be that the puppy actually bit the kids to draw Subaru out. It's a common concept that when a curse is lifted or the source of the curse is revealed the one who cast the curse realizes it. We have seen that in many stories in the past. The anime has been so intense so far I totally forgot the characters like Reinhard and Felt existed. I wonder if they will make any appearance in this arc, because it doesn't seem like that anymore. I am assuming it will run for 2 more episodes at most. The series hit 8.6 for the first time in MAL. I am not surprised the way it has been going. Good luck Kabaneri (started at 8.69 after week 1 when Re:Zero was at 8.09 after week 1). That's a really good point. Although it seemed like Subaru knew people were bitten before he went back to the village I thought that is why he wanted to go back so bad. He could have just been guessing though. |

| Also, the quiet girl who brings the dog to the village and gets "captured separately" is obviously quite suspicious. This is fantasy, she could very well be a pawn, under mind control, the witch under some shapeshifting (or a minion), some kind of demon/slave, etc. The dog that inflicts the curse could also possibly be trained or controlled to do whatever it did. Pretty obvious deduction. The dogs made by the witch reacting to the smell of the witch isn't strange or contradictory. Just cause they have a familiar smell or detect the witch's smell doesn't mean they like the witch. The witch could be horrible as their creator and smelling her could make them mad. |

| So it's the bald dog that cursed him... That was some epic battle while the first half of the episode is meh. Agh, my heart when I thought Rem going to die there, but then she go badass mode! Subaru...don't tell me he's going to die there and have to reset again after all those hard work TT^TT |

QcK_Dagger_HeaT said: hmmmm great questions really I don't have the answer to all them. Intentions seemed to be to target Emalia's camp as it not only bite Subaru in a couple of the arc's but it bite Rem one time as well. It seemed to bite the kids as a lure for a back-up plan. Yea I could see your lack of foreshadowing as well. Although everytime Subaru wanted to take Emilia to the village she was always VERY hesitant. Which lead me to believe there was something dangerous out there. The dogs seemed more summoned by the little dog to me but I could be completely wrong there as well. Maybe the yellow aura was just a command spell not a summon spell. well i do not know idea why a back up was required since the dog was able to beat subaru like in the previous times and as i have no idea how the curse actually works i am not sure about how any of that will help invading the camp probably the next episodes will answer my doubts |
| I guess Subaru won't die this time, atleast, seeing that it didn't show him waking up, or that there wasn't a clear indication that he died. |

VeritasEtLux said: Sigh.. Subaru is really an aho... Caring so much for the villagers but you could glint out some aspects of his character from this. But seriously, as someone who is a hikkimori before this, I really wonder how he grew attached to people so quickly. I don't seem to recall any scene in this anime where he's described himself as a hikkikomori. Wasn't he described as a normal highschooler? |

First time he introduces himserlf to Emilia and Pack he says he's a hikikomori and Emilia says she doesn't understand what that means. It's in the beginning somewhere. He hadn't even died yet. |

Even Suabru speculates this. -The kids getting was already hinted at being a trap to lure Subaru or those from manor out since they did not die like they were supposed to. It's pretty obvious it would have been exposed then hence this measure. -Dogs weren't summoned out of nowhere Subaru went their into territory. Basically most of questions he was asking were already answered in this episode. |

| When Subaru left the house and the camera focus on Emilia looks like she develops some feelings towards Subaru or maybe i'm wrong. Beatrice is so adorable i cant handle with her. Rem can be really cute and the same time so scary not a epic episode but pretty good. |
| this arc is really dragging along |
| Great episode, don't know if that push was necessary. Could have warned her. |

As long as you got one trapped, then everything's fine in the world... |

RediceRyan said: Great episode, don't know if that push was necessary. Could have warned her. Because she was totally in a listening mood. |
| Does the blue hair kid even have a name? She wasn't mentioned by Subaru lol. She actually stands out to me in the previous episode because I see her isolated among other kids and not enjoying herself with Subaru. xDD Also, does that mean that the barrier was already broken before because the puppy boss already infiltrated the village? I think its not over yet. I hope Roswaal will save the day. I would like to see what he can do. |
| Oh yeah, considering he pulled a 'self-sacrifice' again, it'd be quite a loss for the relationship building that creates between him and Rem were lost, just like when he self-sacrificied to save Emilia from the bowel hunter and was healed. |

Jonny_Mhl said: This episode confirmed that Beatrice does not remember anything about Subaru's previous lives, some people bitched about it but I wonder with what they will say now. no it doesn't confirm anything. she's simply keeping herself quiet about it. |

| Good episode, I was wondering when he'd die the whole time. Surprised how he let the dog bite him though. Guess it's easy to get reckless when you know you have infinite lives though. Still, his deaths are nothing compared to what Elsa did to him, yet. |
| legit Subaru don't die bro! you got so far! shouldn't of been so reckless without a checkpoint!. but for real this arc needs to end already lol. |
 |
| Amazing episode as always, but FUCK THAT CLIFFHANGER |
| Yet another great episode. Rem's demon was freaking sweet too. And so begins another very long week of waiting. |
 |
| The end of the episode had me screaming "SUBARU U FREAKING IDIOOOOT!!" Pls dude don't die. I don't want another loop D: So Subaru can use magic. Pretty nice. (you're a wizard Subaru) I hope we can see him using it tho. I get so worried that he wants to save everyone but he is kinda useless in a fight D: I liked his scene with Emilia. I mean, he was SO ANOYING pretending to be all happy. It was refreshing to see him just letting it go and crying. That scene with Rosewall was weird too. I don't know, he is so fishy... (he flies like a DBZ character btw and I love the way he talks, I would never be able to keep a straight face with him talking like that to me) Oni Rem was soooooo nice! Loved it! |

| Too much talking and LN dialogue this episode. I mean it was fine, mostly but it sounded like I was watching Hundred for a moment. Really stripped the sense of urgency when they discovered one child missing. I'm also not too pleased with how little they're showing of Emilia's character. I mean we get she's kind, beautifully, and what Subaru idolizes at this point, but now it just feels like she's there to tease. Don't know if that makes sense. |

Are you for real? This is definition of fishing for complaints about things aren't even worth thinking about. Does he have to foreshadow that cities exist too? |
Iron_MawMay 29, 2016 7:18 PM
| I'm expecting Subaru will not die and comes a new savepoint for him (same with Elsa's where he got nearly killed). Really getting tired of this reset shit. |
 |
| Subaru has definitely earned my respect. From the start of the series I wasn't a big fan of him and thought he was bland. 9 weeks later and he's evolved into quite a hero and definitely my favorite character so far. He even went as far as sacrificing himself again (maybe?) to save Rem, even though he knew it would start him from scratch (and erasing the lap pillow scene). So props to him for evolving in a world where he doesn't belong in. As for Rem, I enjoyed her scenes in this episode very much, especially when she saves Subaru. It's nice to see her save his life, considering she has killed him twice. Then the reveal of her horn and how MAD STRONG she is. Did she hit one of the wolves so hard that it just turned into nothing but blood!? Bitch is scary. |
 |
| I reeeeally don't get the hype of this series. Nice idea, poor execution overall. |

Jagd84 said: I agree with you, he always put his life on the line just to save the ones whose bond is connected to him.edwd2 said: I guess the last part of the episode just felt very out of place. Even if he doesn't die, I'm questioning why and how he was able to just jump in, attempt to save rem? and get himself, well, bitten very badly? ...Have you been watching the show at all? This isn't first time Subaru has gone put his life line that. He did for Felt and Emilia in first arc too. So not unusual at all. The hell? |

Chdata said: Roswall seems fishy, I feel he is still not trusting Subaru.No one seems to be commenting on 2 things Ram and Roswall might know something Rem hasn't been let in on. Or perhaps Rem is more to terms with something or doesn't care about what they're doing. When Roswall leaves, Ram's eyes are hidden under a 'forehead shadow' that indicates some sort of shady business or darkness. Roswall half turns to look back at Subaru as he gives a reply before he leaves, but before you can see what kind of face he makes or what his reaction was to what Subaru says, he stops turning his face just enough that we (and Subaru) can't see the expression he made. |

I thought it was the next day? Wasn't subaru bitten on the 3rd-4th day in every loop and died/got cursed the next day? |
| i'm just fuckin love this episode, Subaru e Rim was so cute <3 Rim demon mode was awesome And poor subaru D= |
 |
| OH yes we are officially past the is ep was amazing to me, some great development for Rem Really looking forward to next week~ |

| Probably just me, but I feel like the anime is just dragging on and on. Literally nothing happening until the last quarter of an episode. Also it's pretty disappointing that the Subaru went from fighting the badass Elsa to a mutt pup with a bold spot... |

Those dogs aren't even the main culprit nor is there a reason to care about what's in the forest because wasn't important until Subaru had to go there. He was already warned before went out there that monsters lurking around. Stop grasping a straws already. |
Thai777 said: I think his fates got intertwined in one episode. At first he died before Rem came to kill him. The second time Rem killed him the moment his curse activated, so he assumed he was also killed first by some attacker. Next he found out it was Rem and secluded himself out of fear and heartbreak, avoiding the curse, but rem died due to having her mana drained from being bitten. He suicided and leaned at some point about shamans as well as priorities gaining eveyone's trust.I thought it was the next day? Wasn't subaru bitten on the 3rd-4th day in every loop and died/got cursed the next day? |
