does anyone know why Ram calls him Barasu? Also what happened to his phone and carrier bag, It'd be nice if he kept the pictures he took in his past lives


She is switching the Su and Baru around

And that really was the best part

Not too keen on the CGI but otherwise there was some solid animation this episode. Rem's moves were awesome. Subaru's proving himself to be pretty clever at times too, figuring out ways to manipulate his curse outside of just dying and trying again. Was hoping he might try to use that blinding magic.

Considering that Subaru was just told that Rem needed a bash to her horn, I was expecting him to either use the pommel / hilt or the flat of the blade to hit her, but it looks like he's going to try and slash it. Could end up backfiring if he cuts her horn off completely. Prety glad he didn't die this episode though. This time around his developments with the other characters have been great, so his losing that and having to start again would be extra painful.
It's an entirely different kind of flying, altogether!

I admit it, I laughed my ass in the final half of the episode. The way Subaru carried Ram, how BerserkRem! reacts to their presence, how Subaru throws Ram to her sister as a bait to later fail to cut her horn at the first attemp... Those scenes were really hilarious.

Apart of that, I like how Rem went to kill the dogs to save Subaru and the brief backstory of the twins sounds interesting.

Cannot wait for this arc to end and start the third one...

Subaru almost mentioned his resur- but was stopped again. The last time he mentioned it he died so I don't think they'll catch on anytime soon. I wonder if they will eventually.

The sharpest sword in the village is weak. Cant even hold the weight of a teen and a loli.

The action this episode was great. Lots of funny moments with Ram.

Ram can fly now!

When Subaru got bitten by the mabeasts, each bite comes with a curse, and so because there's so many curses on him, betty can't undo them all.
And how the curse work is when the mabeasts are hungry, they'll use their connection to Subaru to take mana from him. However, if they're dead, then the curses will fade. And rem believes it's her fault that Subaru got bitten, so she went into the forest to kill all the mabeasts herself. And it seems that she lost control of her demon power and mistaken subaru as an enemy. But, thankfully, by throwing ram towards her, subaru has diverted her attention, leaving an opening for him to cut her horn.

I think the representation of how they explained it was fairly understandable and direct.

You can easily undo a simple knot but not a tons of knots tied to each other, period.

Also the rest was fairly easy to follow up not sure how you found or had difficult with it.

The way I see Ram's flying, is because she has wind magic and therefore she can fly. I mean, Subaru can't be THAT strong now can he?

Also, Rem going berserk is pretty cool. No wonder r/anime changed their majority votes to Rem from episode 9

Ram is so much better than Rem. Her charm really shone though this episode.
The animation was really nice in some spots, though I don't really know what was happening since I saw it through a livestream. Still think White Fox is kind of dragging this out, they could have done so much more.


We need all the time we can get for arc 2, so they're not dragging out anything they're simply being faithful and this is necessary to build up what comes.
true but it's worrying bcuz arc 3 is super long.

It fits perfectly. Somebody calculated the episodes needed for arc 3 (considering the word count) and the result is arond 14 episodes.

Don't ask me about the math, ask this guy who made it lol.

Sarnik said:
Now that I think about it, it's definitely better that Arc 2 ends at episode 11 rather than 10. Rem is going to be a really major character, so they need to establish her character properly for Arc 3 to have its impact.

I'm also not too worried about having 14 episodes for Arc 3. Just using a bit of math:

(88 chapters in Arc 3)/(50 chapters in Arc 2) * (8 episodes for Arc 2) = 14.08 episodes for Arc 3

If we consider word count instead and take the ratio between Arc 2 to Arc 1 into account:

(1,073,963 in Arc 3)/(432,675 in Arc 2)*(8 episodes for Arc 2)*(2*149,002 in Arc 1)/(432,675 in Arc 2) = 13.7 episodes for Arc 3

This is all assuming that the studio doesn't go the route of 4 episodes per volume of course.

I thought every time he tried to tell someone about "retuned by death", Subaru would get engulfed by fear so badly that he would become paralized and would be unable to talk about it again for some time.
It's nice that he used the curse in his favor, but also, since he was able to use it twice, then it is not even half as bad as I thought it was... He seemed to recover from it too fast even if this time he was expecting it
Great episode, nonetheless

What the hell ttcchen? You did really good guesses during Rokka no Yuusha but can't think clearly on Re:Zero? Until now this series is being quite straightforward.

Hornless demon but with extreme level magic, for ranged fight huh? Okay, I guess that's pretty fair enough.

Another amazing episode. For once again I get to see my best grill in full psycho mode. Ram was nice is this ep and quite charming. Beako...just being Beako can't help but love her. Now Subaru, bro you have fcking guts. I like his development as of now and am eager to see what more will White Fox give us on this guy. Now now. I kept hearing that arc 2 would finish with episode 10 but looks like 11th ep will be the final for the arc. Now 14 episodes for arc 3? White Fox pliz don't screw this up *fingers crossed * .

Best scene this episode. Absolutely killed it!

One thing that pops up in my mind every single time we reach this stage.
Imagine Barusu's momentum takes him down too fast and he accidentally lops off Rem's horn...
The three of them are now stuck in the middle of the wolf pack, with none of them having the ability to fight back.
"Munch, gobble, snarf, chew, chomp, snap, crunch!" ensues and he watches all three of them die all over again.... fade to black....
Wakes up again in the Rosewall mansion and first thought in Barusu's mind "Fuck... not again!!"
Jealous witch in the back of his mind "Schadenfreude surprise, mofo!"

Yeah..... still don't like his greedy attitude of doing things he knows is outside his own abilities and wanting to save everyone when he knows he himself doesn't have the ability/power to do so.

Excellent episode, as always.

At this point, it's obvious that Subaru's been cursed by the witch, to the point he realized it himself. The curse is activated whenever he dies, or, when he tries to reveal the existence of it (which attracts the attention of those sensitive about the witch's powers). Either way, it has as many pros as it has cons. In my opinion, it's only full of pros.
Can't get more OP then coming back to life by time traveling (sure, everyone else forgets about you, but you seem to get some save points if you do everything right and live through it...).

Anyway, it's hard to tell if he will live through this continuity, or if he will have to reset again. If he does have to reset, he at least will have more info on how to deal with the situation (as it tends to be the case after every reset). It might be painful though, losing the affection he's worked hard to get from the twins :p

This series sure has the thriller feel going for it.

I think the "where" they fight would be most important.

Betty held off both Ram and "the greatest mage(it was mage right?) in the kingdom" at the same time while in the mansion but didn't think she could stop Ram away from it.

I think in the mansion Betty easily has it, and outside of it Rem would easily have it
