>30 minutes episode for a shitty speech that amounts to "we haven't saved anything, but have hope"
yeah, no, I have liked this season, but this episode and the speech weren't "goat" or "kino"

Agreed. This was a filler. Nothing of value happened.

The waste of time that was the chosing of the speaker... lol. They went through everyone present and even some more... only to end up at Mr. Cringe and his "non-speech" consisting of "Hey, let's not give up, ok? I'll fight for you."...

Nothing was "peak" here. If this filler crap is "peak" for you, then you'll have my condolences.

...the turkey, gravy, and sides will be a little sour this Thanksgiving when the Re:Zero mid season break is in effect. Oh well, I ordered my first anime source material, will get this weekend: LN vol. 1 (maybe get to vol. 26 by age 60 if I clear 2 a year)

Another good build-up to next week's presumed cliffhanger, all the pieces are coming together nicely. OST working OT on this longer ep, like others were saying; didn't notice the length until it was over. Time flows different in the peaks I guess.

And to the zero-bots and haters(not just Re:Zero either; ALL haters); Mister Puck and I share the same sentiments towards y'all:

Saw this and instantly buckled up to experience peak.



And in true Re: Zero fashion, of course it's the dialogue-heavy episode, or as this generation calls it, the yapfest episode, that is peak. I had been waiting for so many years to see it adapted and boy did White Fox deliver. I am so sorry that there was a time where I doubted you.

And guess who's back.

if subaru is not getting torn to pieces in the next episode I'm dropping it. I'm having extreme https://myanimelist.net/anime/160/Ima_Soko_ni_Iru_Boku flashbacks.

No OP or ED, with the episode being extended length? That's the Re:Zero I've come to know and love, and what a fantastic episode. That speech was incredible, Subaru has grown so much and come so far since the beginning of this series. Easily one of the top episodes this show has ever put out, I'm so hyped for the next one. We have never been so back ladies and gentlemen.

But there literally was OP playing at the very start of the episode? We only didn't have ED.

this felt like filler. And Subaru is so weak, him constantly getting asspull wins is getting lame.

People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime.

Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait.

Should have ended his speech with "My name is Natsuki Subaru.. the one who took down the Archbishop of Sloth" with people jumping around energetically cheering in the newfound joy and hope.
Nonetheless, ep is 9.8/10

Man, AL FUCKIN AL, has me in a chokehold cause WHO TF ARE YOU?!

This man gives me huge big brother vibes in the sense of like "yeah I've seen the shit you've gone through already".

That speech Subaru gave is a genuinely good mix of Cringe and Inspiring. Fitting for our Protag.


Ok I know Reinhardt had to deal with the "Hostage" Situation with Felt, but why did everyone's reaction feel like they genuinely forgot he was in the city? Like hell, I still am surprised Subaru doesn't continuously make an effort to grab Reinhardt any chance he gets. He's shown to be willing to work with Subaru anytime.

Been a while since we hit a death/reset, I'm kind of shocked, I thought we would've hit 1 or 2 in the Chapel fight with Lust. I've been assuming we're following through with S2 message to Subaru to NOT abuse his return to death ability and will not see as many resets as we did in the past. (not to say we wont see any, but simply wont see as many as prior)

Al is quickly becoming one of my favorites. Guy is funny, motivational, and a badass? I love how his intro this episode pans through the room showing he casually wiped out like 15 or so cultists solo lol. I don't remember if he was in season 1 or not since it's been so long since I've watched it, but I'm digging his inclusion in the already great supporting cast.

Kinda... I mean this is the excerpt from the novel:

“Here’s a man who’s already beat one Archbishop in this town occupied by cultists. There can’t be anyone better for the job. Maybe the Sword Saint Reinhard if he were here, but there’s only Subaru Natsuki! You’re the only one, General!” Garfiel spread his arms, almost howling.

I really appreciate not seeing Subaru on mental turmoil or physical agony. The sheer amount of it makes this story less appealing to me than it could be. And that's from someone who enjoys Made in Abyss.

I'm surprised they didn't all suggest Liliana over Subaru. They should have at least had her there to make the music diegetic so the townsfolk could get the full effect of having hopeful music during the background of an uplifting speech.

I didn't love the start of the speech, seems like it would've made everyone's emotions worse, but Subaru stuck the landing with it!

Glad I was wrong on my guess on Al from the previous episode.

Subaru's speech was really good.

Didn't even notice the episode was extended, it felt like just a few minutes.

Shit’s about to get real, especially now that Reinhardt is involved. I wonder if he’ll be forced to draw his blade? If he does then that Witch’s Cult doesn’t stand a chance. 👍🏻👍🏻

That speech was beautiful. Not only did it start with Subaru levelling up with the people and getting them caught up with the reality of the situation, it also portrayed them the position he was in and how much he was struggling to find the positive side in all of this. Yet that was the stepping stone for his latter ones to be that more impactful, relishing on people's loved ones and how they would stand for them in the face of what seemed to be impending doom. The words were meant to pull folks back to reality but in the hopes of uniting them to fight for a brighter future.

I almost teared up from it and imagine my face once Reinhard showed up. Needless to say, it's time for a counterattack.

Wow! What an episode!! It was so beautiful to follow Subaru's speech, this just proves how much he has evolved mentally, before he was fearful and selfish, now he can convey his expectations and give hope to everyone. A truly memorable episode...

Seeing Emilia struggling and trying to save those girls was very honorable of her, and that's one of the things I appreciate most about Emilia.

Next episode we will have a lot of action...Can't wait for the next episode!🔥💥

That speech was cringe to be honest, I had to skip it several times and the insert song didn't help either.

While this season is decent overall, this episode is probably the worst season 3 episode so far, the only good thing was Reinhard's appearance at the end of the episode which was quite a majestic entrance~
