Any chance of them adapting the IF routes?

They need to be adapted into LN first, but they're quite short, I hope Tappei extends them whenever he decides to write it in the LN, I would prefer they be adapted into Movie length format in the anime.

Ah i forgot the anime adapts the light novel. Do they HAVE to be a light novel for them to adapt it?

They don't have to be, but I don't know if they would make production using a Web Novel source, for me at least I've never encountered an anime based off a Web Novel.

I'm not super informed on this, but apparently Tappei released a limited edition version of the Greed IF light novel. You had to get tokens or something through the re:zero japanese shop, (attained to buying other things I think), and then when you had enough tokens you got the novel. Of course, I'm fairly certain it wasn't released to the public like a regular light novel (for now atleast), I think it was more of a special thing. And apparently it was like ~300 pages, so easily enough for a fairly decent lengthed movie (a solid 2 hours.) Whereas I'm pretty sure the web novel greed IF was the shortest of them all. Once again, I don't know how accurate all of this info is, I saw it in a video a few months ago, so this is just off the top of my head. But I could see Tappei releasing the IF stories as more official light novels at some point in the future. And I'm kinda hoping the EX novels get adapted before season 3, like how they did memory snow and frozen bonds. That'd especially give them time to produce more re;zero content that isn't from the main story, so they don't catch up to the light novels to fast.

Especially since her character got sidelined in the main story to let Emilia shine more.

I think it would make a lot of sense for them to at least consider it, if the source material is there.
Soooooooo, Im really hopeful xD
