It was more like an expansion of what he told Rem and Subaru in the previous episode.

People getting greedy expecting too much from the animation. Its a 26 episode series where most of the time they dont even have an OP/ED. Just how much do you think they can animate a week.

This episode kind of reminded of the battles against Sin in Final Fantasy 10. Don't know how the hell they going to defeat three or more of them.

Well for one our MC just sat on his ass (when he wasn’t running away), another reason is the cliff-hanger at the end; instead of one whale there is now three, let us see how we BS are way out of this one.
What could he even do anyway?

That is the problem with this show; we are on episode 20 and Subaru is still doing what he did in episode 3, absolutely nothing.

He wants Subari to become the next Emiya for him, dont heed him attention. People like him are amused by the standard flawless characters that we see in most mainstream anime.

I think it's more of the fact that they pretty much blew their budget on the first two arcs and Arc 3 has looked incredibly average as a result, even the fighting.

Yeah these flashbacks are majorly important since they are the start of an extremely big and complex subplot line.

That Satella cameo tho.


I caught that cameo as well, at first i thought i was just seeing things.

Such a awesome episode with incredibly fighting scenes and beautiful flash backs :3
I hope Wilhelm is still alive, a badass can't die before he has gotten the chance to help killing 3 white whales (and maybe kill the one he's inside) :3

Anyway the hype just increases each week and Subaru changes everyone's view on him, can't wait for next episode :3

No, you are wrong on that, sir. This “Subari” is far below even Emiya; at least that fool is useful to some extent.

I dont say this often but now would probably be a good time to kill yourself Subaru, and think of a better plan, now you know there is more than just 1 fcking whale.


But how to prove it?


He could use the excuse of his phone which is a metia predicting when and how many whales are gonna appear. Maybe. He's not technically lying so Crusch will know it's the truth.

I don't think they've completely sold that he died.... so hopefully he can make a dramatic escape next episode? xD

Damn even the armies of 2 royal candidates couldn't kill one whale, and now they're facing multiple, I wonder what kind of asspull is gonna save them, inb4 1 person shows up and solves everything or Subaru dies for the 245334 time.
I couldn't really give a shit about Wilheim he's just a typical stoic knight, his wife looked pretty badass though.

It's awesome to be caught up now! And I've loved this anime, it's really easy to see why so many people like it. It really was silly of me not to start watching this earlier because when I skimming the summary it sounded boring.

As for this episode, the gore was a bit much for me, but considering all of the things I've liked about this anime, something trivial like that doesn't bother me. I really liked the focus on Wilhelm and it was cool seeing him be badass attacking the whale. Also, it's lovely seeing Subaru retain his original personality. Though, I really didn't mind it back when he was despairing as much as some other people here.

Well, shit got real. Kept getting goosebumps from how intense things got, but when two more whales showed up in the end...oh man, it was almost scary.
I don't recall Wilheilm ever being important or having more screentime, so I found the focus on him pretty pointless.
With what Subaru said about wanting to be praised, does that mean he's back to being in his old self where he thinks he's the protagonist of a fantasy story, again?

Definitely the best episode so far. The action scenes are just so fun to be watch. So there are total 3 White Whales?
But it's important to remember that a movie review is subjective;it only gives you one person's opinion.

http://www.classzone.com/books/lnetwork_gr08/page_build.cfm?content=analyz_media&ch=30

It doesn't matter if you like LoGH,Monster etc.If you are a jobless or college/school dropout living in your mom basement, you are still an unintelligent loser. Taste in anime does not make you a better person.If elitist don't exist, casual pleb and shit taste also don't exist.

Damn Subaro, you called the other whales. You didn't help them by making yourself reek of witch smell, instead you called the others by luring them using your smell. I still remember when Puck told you that you lured the whales on episode 18... Lol. It's funny that I find it more appropriate for Subaro to just Die right now and rethink his idea or plan on how will they going to kill the whales. Lol 😂😂

Uh...because the writer wanted to write the story from the PERSPECTIVE of someone weak that has to use trial and error in a world where everyone else is Goku? And he isn't useless, if you've been watching and paying attention to the anime.

That's not character development though, it's just a death flag. Also quite ironic how his reason for holding a sword changed from protecting someone to vengeance.

If you have not noticed, a lot of characters have died; some of them for them have died because of Subaru.
If it was not for his time loop hacks, everyone would have died long ago
