I just can't take these cliffhangers anymore. I really should just wait 2 weeks and watch the episodes back to back but NO i just have to watch it as soon as it drops lmfao. I have a feeling either he won't die OR they'll restart him from a save point again and he'll fight smarter. Either way I'm wondering if they will end this season off on a cliff hanger.

I really am starting to like Julius. I'll be kind of disappointed if all that relationship building goes to waste. Lowkey I wish Rem was also fighting rn, I like that she loves Subaru but it's kind of sad if that will become her major role. I'd like to see her do a little more right now and become something else instead of Emilia's love rival lol.

On to the next ep, i guess : (. Re:Petit isn't going to fix how I feel right now lmfao
I couldn't think of anything cool to put here.

I don't think the restart point will be the same, prolly somewhere after they defeated the white whale.
I looked for the LN and it's at volume 8, with volume 9 coming this month...What are they gonna do with the next 2 eps?
the author is working with the studio unlike other adaptations.


Not to mention there is the Web Novel. There's not much to be worried about.

So what was said about the Gospel in last weeks episode is true?
If it is hopefully Subaru will realize and destroy it ASAP. (and wtf one has to be scared of books xD)

Everyone's favorite waifu and her pet makes their appearance atlast, fabulously. She didn't even notice Subaru? Things seem bad for my favorite ship.

Felis crying and what he did to Subaru was vague. Can someone explain?

I bet the gospel thing caused it. If so, why the fuck don't you destroy it, you idiot Subaru.

the ep was amazing but god damn that ending though i had a feeling something like that would happen cause things seems to never end on a good note until a good amount of suffering and restarting happens

seriously hate that witch group

but anyway i really cant wait for next ep to see just how he's gonna prevent this from happening and make things right

This is one of those events where a random person wrote a Web Novel, a publisher noticed it and offered the author to write the Light Novels of that series.

So yeah, it follows the same route and all, though the author can make some changes.

Betelgeuse best character but fuck him for that ending.

I doubt he'll revive at the appa place because that would be... suffering.

Oh, it's only a misunderstanding with Ram, but, did Subaru really sent her a blank letter? I don't quite remember.
And the ending of this episode... just what the bloody hell!? He's going to die again!? How they will wrap it up in two episode!? just how!? And where is his revival point now!? Please don't before the whale hunt, before the witch cult hunt is okay for me, but, really? two episode remaining? Well, let's just wait for another week, and find all of those answer.

OOOOH MY BRAIN TREMBLES!!!

WHAT THE FUUU, another week of waiting. 5/5 totally didn't expect that to happen.

Where is Subaru going to reset?
What's the cause of this, could it be the black gospel? Plus this was foreshadowed back in episode 18 when Subaru started laughing insanely after being frozen by Puck, noting that the laugh came from himself and saying he is "truly slothful". I thought nothing of it except it was just weird at the time but wow.

Only 2 episodes to close up this season. Considering the number of people saying ep25 will induce salt I can only imagine a cliffhanger as legendary as Code Geass R1. Which will severely piss me off and please me at the same time since S2 will be practically guaranteed if that happens.

I wonder though how betelgeuse can posses subaru when the witches spirit is already in him and wouldnt he get the same knowledge subaru has from possesing him, wich would allow betelgeuse to learn about return by death? Well guess he can talk to the witch cult about his powers, maybe he should join them after all. :D

Anyway lets see where he restarts next, the arc is supposed to end the next 2 episodes so i dont think it will be to far back. It would be awesome if subaru could supress betelgeuse spirit and keep his power, but as we all know thats probably not going to happen.

Ram was colder to Subaru then usual. Last time she was that cold was when the white whale erased Rem.

Subaru got possessed this time. Interesting character development for him this time. Running away from Emilia after he knew something was up and asking Felis and Julius to kill him to accomplish his goal selflessly.

Hope the ending doesn't feel to rushed or easy for Subaru.

I'm damn sure the least bonfire(check point) is after they defeated the cult, they only have 2 episodes left. That's what happen when you play so much Dark Souls then you die to the first boss again, and turn into a Betelgeuse from losing so much. Comparing this to Dark Souls is really funny, both sux imo.

Remember when he died in the arc with Ram and Rem, he didn't return to the apple shop but the current arc :3

I hope he wakes up atleast after the White Whale and the start massacre of the Witch Cult, so he might wake up in a new spot we haven't seen yet :3

omfg... I was so glad they didn't reset in the last three episodes because that would have meant he cannot reset anymore due to the limited episode count. I swear if he goes back to the apple vendor I fucking drop it then and there...

If he is not going back like just a few hours I'm so done with it. Why would you even plan it out like that. That's worse than a cliffhanger.

I suppose someone tampered it. Either someone from the witches cult (considering there were guys from the witch cult with the merchants) or anyone who wants to remove Emilia from the election process(damaging relationships to people who support her etc)
