What an EPIC episode, probably the most intense one of the season! It truly felt like a movie. 💜

One of the best episodes in the entire second season. It felt as though things were actually happening and moving forward without staying stagnant.

The action was nice and Ram had some of the best characterization for herself in the entire series. She was always this cardboard standee in the background who more or less repeated the same unfunny insults. This was a nice change.

Now is they psycho chick really dead, or is she taking a convenient break from the action for plot purposes?

Hopefully Subaru can finally convince Betty to do something because I'm tired of seeing the same scene play out over and over again with slightly different dialogue.

What's frustrating for me when watching Re: Zero, is that in one episode (like last week's) it feels like it's dragging on forever because of all the psychoanalyzing/self-pity monologuing. But then in an episode like this, the dialogue feels much snappier, and it feels like a lot is happening, in a good way.

This is arguably one of the best ways to put ReZero's biggest issue. Its dialogue feels so unnatural, drug out, and repetitive that it just forces me out of my suspension of disbelief. I have a hard time pay attention or even caring what's being said because none of it really means anything.

Is every studio trying to compete for best fight of 2021 this early like holy shit. Best episode of Re Zero hands down. I loved the 3rd trail, but the fire fight was easily the best part. Garf has earned my respect and is now one of my favorites.
what about the episode when Subaru defeats the whale? This week’s episode was amazing but they had to leave it on a cliffhanger. Also there were two fire fights. One with Subaru burning the mabeast and the one with roswaal. Puck was using ice tho

Can someone explain to me why Elsa is dead now, considering she was able to regenerate more severe wounds until now? What happened with Garfiel's last attack? How is she dead???

is she even? she might be just immobilized for a bit but the next episode she comes out strong like nothing happened. that would be nice. actually, the best way to finish off this season, I think, would be for her to escape from underneath the hyppo and randomly kill off Subaru. so we can have 'Season 2 part 3' with Sanctuary arc started all over again.
if the production had the balls to make such a dick move I'd actually rate re:zero 10/10 :D

HOLY SH** WHAT AN EPISODE. I No words to describe how much I loved this episode. next to ep 2 of part 2 this is the 2nd best episode .

Elsa vampire ok

Emilia finished the 3rd trial and broke the barrier ok

Elsa vs Garfiel ok

Ram confessing that she loves Roswaal REAL SH**


Ok but in all honesty the ep was amazing. The fight against Elsa and Garfiel was amazing and Ram confessing her feelings to roswaal was even better. the gospel has been destroyed and im now worried for Ram. if Ram died im gonna be pissed.

This episode was so great that it gets a 6/5 it's just that good can't wait for next week!!!

I just need to point out that anyone who thinks that it's a surprise that Ram loves Roswaal needs to rewatch the entire series. It's....painfully obvious to me that she does. The scene where Roswaal reveals his master plan back in Season 1, while Ram is CUDDLED UP TO HIM and he's nursing her horn back....come on it's so obvious that she fell in love with him and how it happened.

I'm going to stress this over and over. Rewatch the entire series. Rewatch the entire series. REWATCH the ENTIRE series. I PROMISE you there are things that you've missed. TRUST me. I'm an anime only that has rewatched it three times now and I STILL catch stuff.

I can't emphasize this enough....

white fox went all out in this episode, elsa vs garfield was so great. (inserting elsa's backstory while fighting, great move) and ram + puck vs roswal was awesome too. the insert song with ram's seiyuu singing in the background was brilliant. i hope ram didn't die from that fireball attack from roswal (i love to hate on this clown lol), i already lost rem and i don't want to lose another waifu character.

roswal's reaction to the gospel getting burned was sick. i can't believe elsa died from getting crushed by a rock, she was so badass.

great job to all the staff working on this episode, i feel blessed that i get to watch this.

Look like Elsa is finally dead, about damn time. Looks like she wanted to die though, I suppose that's where masochism leads you. That sibling vs. sibling fight was incredible, way more brutal than I thought it would be. I expect the younger sibling(forgot her name) to stick around as a villain a while longer, maybe she'll seek revenge. Like d the fight between Ram and Puckagainst Roswall as well. Ram going for the book instead of the finishing blow, then burning, will probably do more to damage him in the long run. I just hope Ram isn't actually dead.

why is the Third trial a waste of time? we very clearly get a ton of dialogue foreshadowing future events in the series and the Minerva conversation s also pretty important.

Some of the jokes early in the episode were hilarious. Elsa's backstory was kind of nice (although it would've been MUCH better if her backstory was introduced back in season 1). Garfiel is an interesting character in that, aside from his development (which I thought was kind of heart warming), he's a character who appears like every other typical big-hot headed idiot, like a typical shounen anime protagonist. But he's clearly smarter than he looks; he deduced that Elsa and the loli were sisters, and he deduced that Elsa was a vampire. He's not just brawn and no brains.

I can't help but feel that season 2 of Re: Zero is meant to be binged, or at least, watched every day; because I think there are quite some stuff I forgot; like, what was Roswaal's goal again? Why is he doing what he's doing again? It feels like there's a lot of important information in this season, since it's one big arc. Because I'm watching Re: Zero weekly, it's kinda hard to keep track of some details, sometimes.

Ram being in love with Roswaal. My reaction is; WTF? First off, there's a huge age gap between them: Ram is like, 17, I think, and Roswaal is a grown man. Second, he freaking killed everyone she knew (except Rem, but from her
perspective, Rem doesn't count, since she doesn't remember her).

a good part of the fanbase and Roswaal himself agree with you on Ram s feelings.

Hmmm, there seems to be something hidden in Echidna's real face.

Emilia doesn't recognize it in the grave, and we never saw it in the flashbacks from Ryuzu.

I find it too strange to not be something of importance, however, I can't even spoil myself on this.

Huh. I guess it makes sense why we agree. I'm looking forward to how future episodes will justify Ram's "love" for Roswaal. She knew him since she was a child; so if she has to love him, shouldn't it be kind of seeing him like a father, at most, type of love?

Ram was playing dirty, but her strategy to faze the enemy with a stun weapon (DAI-SKEE-DAH) was pretty effective! What a way to end an episode. R. I. P. This is the climax of the season we don't need any more! EDIT: Ok so apparently ram actually does have a huge crush on roswall. Um, ok then, don't know why, love is a mysterious thing I guess

Also does anyone wanna remind me wtf was roswall doing playing around with that crystal again

And I'm assuming the stuff with Emilia will be explained later on. Seems she was tricked into lifting the barrier- whatever its true purpose was.

What a crazy ep. Good for Ram to finally confess but... poor Garfiel man, he got his first love stolen from him by a literal clown

We don't know what kind of people we truly are until the moment before our deaths.
As death comes to embrace you, you will realise what you are.
That's what death is, don't you think?

It was a good episode, not my favorite one of the season though, this is probably my 2nd or 3rd favorite one.

Elsa's regen ability is freaking OP, she will outlast her opponents but for some reason her ability didn't work at the end? I don't think she's really dead but I want to know why her ability didn't work there, was it because she used it too much? no idea and Garfiel is pretty damn strong, he was man-handling Elsa all by himself, such a chad and he's only like 14 or something, he's going to be pretty OP once he grows up, he's already close to top tier at that young age.

Emilia finally finished the trials and why was the blonde witch crying, is she her mom? and goddamn, Ram better not die, if she dies we going to have a problem, at this point I actually want Subaru to die so they can re-do the whole thing again and save Ram but I guess this is it for her... hopefully not, Ram (alongside Rem) is one of the better characters in this anime so I hope nothing happens to her.

The whole thing behind Elsa being dead or not is kinda ridiculous. So she's supposed to be immortal... until she isn't? Reach some arbitrary number of deaths and then she's gone for good? In a world where our protagonist rewinds to an alternate timeline every time he dies, her passing felt anticlimactic and poorly articulated.

Elsa: I'm immortal!
Garf: Not if I kill you enough times
Elsa: k guess I'll die

I'd say her circumstances could pop up again down the road (just like we didn't understand Betelguese until this season) but the backstory-right-before-death makes me think that won't be the case.

For the God's sake.

Same, can't really understand how OP pervert who has no plot and no worthy eneimes is even remotely close to this, where it is not even the final fight, yet it looks and feels like one. The absolute mastercraft.

I mean they are different types of stories: Mushoku definitely has plot, but the story of that world isnt that important, at heart it's a redemption story and the tale of Rudeus, as simple as that, it's satisfying seeing his growth and his development. Re;zero is more about buildup: it starts with a mistery and a whole new world and keeps unveiling more and more about those misteries arc after arc and RFD just helps building up the emotions. I still prefer Re:zero, but mushoku stays in my top 3 for sure (prolly in the order rezero, kumodesu and then mushoku)

It makes sense why Rem's disappearance from everyone's memory could strengthen that "love," as you say. And it'd make more sense if it was Stockholm syndrome. But I mean...I still don't get why Ram loves this madman. It'll probably be explained in more detail next episode.


There's a way Roswaal's actions were salvation for Ram, aside from Roswaal taking up all of her memories after Rem was erased. Her reasoning becomes clear in the sixth arc, when we get her backstory & thoughts.

For now this is enough, I'm glad they didn't go too much into it. The point wasn't really Ram loving Roswaal but the fact that her feelings had changed, which goes against Roswaal's philosophy, and that Roswaal himself ironically contributed to that by letting Rem be sacrificed. Ram saying "I love you" is essentially a big "fuck you" to Roswaal's entire philosophy.

So, we have a VERY good episode, with an amazing pace for 29 minutes. And when you think it ended... Bang, there is an amazing fight. What really called my attention is how Roswall, a Guy who seems to always have the upper hand (found out, finally, why he smirked when Subaru stepped out out S01) is absolutely immobilized, shocked, petrified in fear on the possibility of Puck being on its fearsome form. Its on the special? I skipped It, If its there, I Will gladly watch It, even because Puck does mention 'Should we pick on where we stopped?'. Well, I really dont know how someone can love a Guy as bizarre as that, but taste must be respected.

First of all, I think WhiteFox deserve all the praise they can get for their treatment of Re:Zero, they've done such an incredible job in producing it. They are the true heroes here.

Definitely one of the best episode of this second cour, it was crazy.

The Elsa Garf fight was great but it kinda feels like that they copped out on the conclusion. It seems weird to me that Elsa would be distracted when she was ready to strike Garf down. We don't really know the relationship between those 'sisters' but Elsa doesn't seem like someone who could care about it that much and Maylie wasn't in her short flashback either. I also don't really think she's dead since she's supposed to be immortal, maybe she'll just regenerate super slowly or is she really dead?

Emilia trial was nice but I wish it was more detailed, feels like they breezed through the second and third trials. The scene at the Witch's tea party location was very nice though, very curious how Minerva knows Emilia's mother and why she seems to hold such affection towards Emilia (Is she the mother?). I'm also curious who was at the grave? They were clearing wearing Echidna's clothes but there's no way Emilia wouldn't recognize Echidna right? It did look like the person at the grave had silver hair too (Emilia's Mom?).

The Ram and Puck vs Roswaal fight was definitely the best, the fight sequences were great. For a second I thought Puck did assume his true form but he was just messing around and became bigger. I did like how they were using illusion tactics against Roswaal who looks something like a magician himself. That blast at the end though, I hope Ram is alright. For what it's worth, I like her more than Rem.

I do have a question about Roswaal interfering with Puck and Emilia's contract, maybe I didn't follow it correctly but what exactly did he do to tamper with their contract?
