| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Now I feel a little annoyed when Satella said "i love you", finally we could see Satella's face, she looks like Emillia. Emillia looks very beautiful when the moon is lighting up her. |
 |
| Oh that little smile under the moon light... The chemistry between Subaru and Garfiel is rather amusing. Those two brings out a lot their personalities between each other. |
 |
| I was quite surprised to watch Subaru shaken to the point he even hesitated to touch Emilia. Also Satella's constant I love you was freaky. Ofc being the witch of Greed Echidna obvioisly wanted immortality but too bad she failed. Thou I want her to revive someday tbh. The Ryuzu who was clinging to Subaru was quite adorable. Subaru's confrontation with Garfiel was quite nerve wrecking. Garfiel: You don't know suffering and pain Me: Bruh!!! He is suffering incarnate. Welp a date with Petra, now that's something to look forward too. Shirase-san said: Wasn't that pretty obvious from the begining thou. That's the whole reason people hate Emilia, cause she looks like Satella.Now I feel a little annoyed when Satella said "i love you", finally we could see Satella's face, she looks like Emillia. Emillia looks very beautiful when the moon is lighting up her. Yep. |

| "I know Hell" best line from the ep. Also, the ep ran the entire time that was a big plus for this ep. Also finally got to see Beatrice again. Also, the witch of envy looks like a carbon copy of Emilia or the other way around. I was actually shocked they looked identical. |
on 
| I know a lot of people want to see Realize and Memento in the same episode, but I love how White Fox have scrapped the OP/ED sequences in favour of crafting a smoother flowing experience. In terms of the episode itself, pretty near perfect adaptation. Can’t think of any major things outside of monologues and characters’ thoughts that were left out. Someone who’s re read arc 4 lately may be able to correct me on that, though. Mainly set up for this final stretch of episodes for this cour which will be absolutely insane. Re:Zero is peak fiction and these next few weeks will show why. |
 |
| He does not know what hell is like? Hahaha he probably experienced what true hell is like more than anyone else in that god forsaken world of theirs. Subaru claims to be weak and while it is true that compared to most others in this series he has no real fighting power it does not mean he is ''weak'' The fact that he can still keep his sanity intact and continue forward to find a solution after all of this is not something a true weak individual can put up with. Sigh it is nice to end on a bit of a happy tone in this ep even if he still did die in this one and will most likely go trough another hell loop after this. |
| I started liking Subaru a lot during this season. He has my respect. Satella really does look a lot like Emilia. Curious to see what will happen with Beatrice. |
 |
| I can't believe that this season was projected for 24/25 episodes, because this end of the first cour is clearly going to have a great CLIMAX. - I have to read the Light Novel now, but it is bugging me why Frederica accepted so easly to leave the Mansion alone with Subaru. Something is missing in that conversation. And another random mistery, or at least something that we may guess, but demands confirmation. Why Satella, the Witch of Jealousy, just appeared in that moment, and not anymore in the next loop? Maybe it was only due the long talk of Subaru and the other Witches? Subaru had a BADASS moment. "I KNOW THE F*CKING HELL, YOU LITTLE KITTY" Every furry is gangsta until Subaru got balls. |

| We finally understand the purpose of the tea! However, I couldn't really understand what upsets Garfiel. How I think his character works: He is brave as a solo talker, and can't single someone out in a group (that's why he didn't confront Subaru of his stench at the sanctuary). About Meyer: The first thought that came to mind "the replicas could be useful for fighting bunnies." |

I know now that I know nothing.  |
| The entire "I love you"/"Love me" scene was pretty creepy. I doubt anyone would want to be put in that situation no matter how beautiful the witch may be. Again, another well done episode, but I am still getting an irritated feeling of how the episodes just move back and forth between locations, the sanctuary and the mansion, and not much is added in-between. Even though people have told me that this arc is two cours, and not just one, I feel like that just adds to my point a couple of episodes ago: That it is being stretched out. Even more so to fit a two cour show. Even if the light novel was also this stretched out, the anime is able to take liberties to condense the story if they wanted to. Maybe it is just the weekly factor. When I saw the first season, it was in a binge, so maybe I didn't notice if the pace felt too slow. But this season, which I obviously am watching weekly, the plot progression, while there, feels too slow. It has been ten episodes but it feels like it could have all fit into five episodes. Maybe after the show ends and I am able to binge it, then I can see if I have the same problem with the pacing as I did with watching it weekly. I will say this though: This show is really good at building mysteries that viewers can be invested in. |
 |
| Subaru's face while talking to Emilia and later Garfiel was crazy scary! "I know Hell" - His voice and expresion was so serious it would be wierd if Garfiel didnt believe him. |
| well that's just my opinion..... |
| The anime skipped some interesting parts during the conversation with Ryuzu. |
mozgowSep 9, 2020 8:18 AM
 |
| Later in the fight, Subaru says: "RYUZU'S SUICIDE BOMBING ATTACK!" The Lolibaba Slayer |
|
| A witch's love, very terrifying indeed. Hyped for the upcoming set up, though I do feel something is gonna go horribly wrong considering this is part 1 I believe. |
| That 'I love you' was creepy as hell After so many retries things are finally clearing up for Subaru. I wonder what he said to Garfiel that fazed him. He finally made that determined face. Guess the save point is gonna be updated soon |
| To be honest, i started to be very annoyed with the stubborn Garfiel talk, but thankfully the "Subaru got barusu" moment saved it. The scared face of the Kitty was amazing. |
|
| In this episode, we can see that Subaru is slowly losing his humanity. He doesn't care about saving others now and cares more about getting the perfect loop as he can die countless times. He even left the letter for Emilia and questioned why he is even doing this stuff when he can die as many times as he wants and the loop will reset. In season 1, he saved others even at the cost of his life (Ferris and Julius killing him) but here he cares more about getting the perfect loop instead of saving others. Also one very important detail is that Subaru repeats the same words he said to Emilia in season 1 episode 1 to Satella in this episode which were:- "No matter what, I will definitely save you".  Also really loved the Emilia x Subaru scenes this episode. Emilia looked gorgeous here. EMT!  |

 Join Emilia's self-proclaimed knights club if you are a fellow Emilia fan |
| Damn, Subaru sure knows Hell.. |
  Must love Moe! Darkness prevails!! Slice of Life is all we need! |
| This timeline is already on the right track and things are getting more clear. Hope he will manage somehow to defeat all the enemies that await him. Clock is ticking Subaru... |
Ushiromiya Battler, right now, on this island, no one exists except for you. You're the only one alive in this island. However I'm here right now, and i'm about to kill you. Who... am I? |
| Great ep!!! Correct me if im wrong so basically echidna goals is to get subarus return by death right because ryuzu was a failed? Im not confuse but need some assurance. And also with the convo between subaru and beatrice this will means that the contract that is bind to her will end right by helping subaru??? Pls explain someone hahhaha |

| Chidna´s tea!! Great episode, showing why Re:ZERO is being one of the must of the season, Emilia.. we finally understand you, Subaru you are being the man this season.. Very good adaptation, just awaiting to see how this court will end (It will be fucking amazing!) |
| Petra got a Date promised, she is advancing one step after another. These were some interesting lines from Beatrice at the end and she also talked like she is aware of Barusu's ability, that was pretty hype, cant wait for the next episode |
| just because I’ve gotten weaker, doesn’t mean that you got stronger, does it? |
| The witch of envy (Satella) is really similar to Emilia wow! what a great episode once again, Subaru's determination is nice to watch, Garfield is still really intriguing tbh |
 |
| I wonder what's going to happen next? The series is going great so far |
 |
| So those diamond in the cover picture is not only for decoration huh. |
| I'm too weird to live but much too rare to die. |
| Well, Satella looking like Emilia shouldn't be surprising, considering they have the same voice actress and Emilia was shunned all her life for being a half-elf like the Witch of Envy, but the reveal was still chilling nonetheless. Subaru got himself a harem of loli grandma clones, lol. So Echidna's influence in the Sanctuary is still strong despite her being dead for centuries... Subaru was so cool in the scene near the end when Garfiel confronts him. He has indeed see Hell, and not only one time. Time to see what Beatrice has to say regarding all the stuff happening lately. |
 |
| Okay help me understand what Ryuzu meant when she said that Subaru was meeting Garfiel's lover, after Subaru asked to hide the fact that he met Echidna and Ryuzu. Also 26 minutes, no breaks on OP and ED, thats some dedictation from White fox. Its like they are telling "yeah we only got budget for a half of a season but we still want to adapt it the best way we can". |
GerverSep 9, 2020 9:15 AM
| The opinions of people with shit taste, such as yourself, may differ of course. |
| Roswaal and Beatrice reactions in this and the last loop made it clear that these Book-of-Spoilers holders KNOWS EVERYTHING. Nobody need to tell Roswaal what happened in White Whale fight, the Alliance of factions, who is Rem, Petelgeuse raid, because he knows enough. And we see now that Beako can't be caught by surprise with the "question". She is in a new timeline, only 2 days later from the last conversation in "valid time", and she is already prepared for that. |
|
2 third of this episode was good (Satella scenes, the crystal scenes and the sanctuary experiments) but the end went down hill quick for me art wise Ngl. Subaru looks very inconsistent this episode lol. Corona strikes again??? It’s weird to me how he’s the only character shape shifting. I wonder if his design/proportions is hard to nail down between different animators. All of the other characters look the same. And the fact that we’re reaching the climax of the mid way point of this arc. I’m a little worried about the upcoming episodes (art wise). There are some really important scenes. The story is going to be great no doubt about that, but I don’t want wonky faces to ruin important scenes. |

| Down on the West Coast They got a sayin' |
| Subaru's face was off model/poorly drawn in several places, but that should be fixed with the bluray release. Overall a great episode. |
 |
| Probably the best episode of this season so far! Awesome to finally see the witch's face and the effect that has on Subaru when he sees Emilia. That ending dialogue though, Subaru truly has been through hell multiple times and I can't imagine what Garfiel must have thought when he heard that. Only 3 episodes left, looking forward to what happens next. |
 |
| Wait,so did Garfiel undergoes the trial and has met Echidna too? That is why Garfiel can control those Ryuuzu clone? Someone clarify this? |

swirlydragon said: Also really loved the Emilia x Subaru scenes this episode. Emilia looked gorgeous here. EMT!  Maybe... Satella was an experiment of Equidna. |
|
| But why you guys haven’t watched the prequel before the first season? They’ve already explained the reason why Emilia and Satella look alike lmao |
| damn the sound effect from Satella's whisper A true experience of Thriller Imagine if you watching this without a proper headphones. |
 |
| Subaru is the cringiest protagonist I have ever seen, Re:Zero would have been a so much better anime if the protagonist wasn't so lame. |
| Was not expecting a Satella face reveal at all, but it was half-assed anyways. I really liked the art in this episode. Especially the faces, they were drawn to my liking. |
