| Rezero is now a masterpiece for me. 10/10 it is difficult to describe the complexity of the episode and the attention to the smallest details, absolutely spectacular. |

| Beakooo :( when I read her past it was so sad, I don't think that it was fully conveyed in the anime but watching her dying and asking to die hurts.... that last scene with broken emilia was creepy af 10/10 |

Returnbywaifu said: If I remember correctly, the conversation went a bit differently in the LN. Right after saying that it's an irony, Beatrice adds that she wants to be killed by Subaru. That moved the conversation to a different tracks, screwing up Subaru's plans. And when Beatrice finally revealed what the question is, it was already too late. Subaru tried another approach, with that "You should have asked for help" but it failed too.- As some people have said here, Subaru not telling Beatrice he is "that person" especially when she's the one bringing up the topic. This cannot be attributed to Subaru's mental state, he clearly had the opportunity to tell her and he didn't. I need an explanation for this, we cannot keep repeating the same thing forever, "Subaru has seen some shit and he doesn't behave normally", because if you use that card you can do pretty much everything you want with Subaru and always give that excuse. Returnbywaifu said: About Roswaal not creating the snow at the same time, he does everything exactly as it's written in his copy of the Tome of Wisdom. That's why he did it at different times. The rest will be explained later, mostly in the second cour.- Why are the loops so different from each other? The rabbits coming at different times (the snow attracted them but why did not Roswaal create the storm at the sime time in both loops?), people acting differetly, like Garfield and a long etc. In this regard I no longer feel the same as season 1 in which the loops were identical from each other and what changed were only Subaru's actions. The author is probably aware of this, since it would be too much of a mistake to not address this, which means, that little actions Subaru does, even if we do not know which ones and why, it affects dramatically what happens here. This needs to be addressed, too. Returnbywaifu said: Anime skipped that part. Subaru used Ryuzu clones to help him get there.- Why doesn't Subaru die from the Rabbits this time? It was shown earlier how vicious they are, there is no way he should have survived long enough to see Emilia. They ate him alive in another loop. Again, explanation needed. Returnbywaifu said: Subaru knows that only Puck can create such thing, but since Emilia is not dead it's not him. I think he discussed that with Garfiel and they've concluded that another powerful mage, like Roswaal, could do that (I would have to check the LN to be sure).- How does Subaru know that Roswaal is the one who created the Snowstorm? Maybe he deducts it can only be him? And if that is the case, he is smart enough to deduce this but not to tell Beatrice the words? |

| It has been a while since I have seen such a good horror anime. Everything regarding Beatrice, Emilia loosing her mind, Rosvaal, more of Subaru's suffering - this show just keeps you on the edge. If the last two episodes do not disappoint this will definetly be a 10/10 masterpiece. With another plot twist and enemy emerging, I am just so lost how all of this could be resolved. Poor, poor Subaru. His existence is pain. |

Venumidas said: I know it's part of the story, but all this repetitive crying always the same characters dying, always a new evil showing up is getting so fucking boring and stupid to a insane degree. [...] This is just so wrong. Last time Ram was shown dying was in episode 15 of season 1, but this time Subaru Subaru died "cry" to it. Subaru never "cried" before when Garfiel died. Roswaal was never shown dying, period. Beatrice was never shown dying, period. "Always the same characters dying" is just wrong. As for the rest of your comment, it's just as wrong. We've just got the confirmation that the story isn't just "here's a new guy, here's a new problem, here's another one". We've got the confirmation that Meili was present in season 1. We've got the confirmation that Roswaal was plotting something from the very start. We now have a good idea of most that's happening in the Sanctuary, and the list of potential culprits is shrinking every episode. The details are incredibly important in Re:Zero and by now every viewer should start to understand that everything that has happened so far isn't there for no reason, isn't random, and is part of a single, complex and tightly knit story. I'm not saying Re:Zero is perfect and everyone should love it, but the points you brought just don't work. You can find the story boring though. I don't find it boring at all personally, but taste is taste. |

But if it is the book itself the one giving Roswaal instructions, then technically it is the book that is the one aware of Subaru's redo as it gives instructions based on Subaru's actions on previous loops. |

But the fact is that everything in this world is about vows and contracts, and except by Subaru, nobody ever even try to violate one. Then, Beatrice is tied to that Mansion and Library by Echidna's contract, and Subaru need follow this code to rewrite it and freed her. Btw, Betty is a huge drama queen. Ryuzu Bilma is living in a cage for the same amount of time as Beatrice, and instead of suicidal desire, the little replica learned to love the little things and enjoy everyday that she is alive.

| Yes, I don´t understand a fuck. Still this chapter was epic. Really well made and with a lot of mysteries. I haven´t been so expectant since Boca-River in 2018. This chapter is 5/5. Also another episode without the OP (only 3 out of 11 had it), sad because it´s amazing |

But Roswaal is reading the book regularly, so he noticed that the content was changing. And then he noticed when it was changing, connecting it to Subaru :) |

| Holy shit that ending was fucking terrifying. |
| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. MAL is literally just anime Twitter as its own website lol. |
| what. the. hell. So it seems that Roswall is indeed an enemy who actually knows of Subaru's ability. That whole restart was so fucked up, also why the hell was Subaru still with the eye wound even tho he restarted? |

I wouldn't rlly be fully dissapointed if they left it on a cliffhanger, rather than having a shit ending. |

| Oh boy, if they chasing those feels, they have them. I watched the ovas/movies on crunchy and this eps reminded me of the fireworks display and Beatrice saying she didn't dislike them. Get it sorted Subaru! We all counting on you! |

| First half of the episode was about my sad feeling for Beatrice,but after the second half a lot of things happened and I started to feel bad about everything Subaru has to go through man. |
| The remake of Berserk is a mistake. |
| I am starting to think there is no good loop at end of this season. This is more like IF story, how long will this suffering go on? And it's only sanctuary, not even mention about two goddamnit Arci-bishops of sin. |

Shirayukin said: Chilling episode. This show is really good at building up the atmosphere and ending an episode. However I feel like they rushed a lot the past episode that it missed many important explanations. I wouldn't understand the reason behind Roswall's actions if not for the explanations some LN readers wrote in this thread, and I'm still confused about Garfiel's inconsistent behavior towards Subaru from last episode.. Anyways, I think the only way they can go through this is for Emilia to pass the trials soon and everyone go back to the mansion = more manpower to defeat Elsa? Not passing the trials might also be the reason why Emilia even went insane. If it's anything like Subaru's trial then it's something personal she needs to let go/solve, but so far they haven't try to solve it. Maybe Subaru needs to help her with that. I completely agree with you. Something about leaving Emilia defenseless triggers Satella to take over...? |

Returnbywaifu said: I think that at this point for me the quality of this show pretty much depends on whether the apparent plot conveniences, character inconsistencies, and unexplained events are: 1. Really inconsistencies due to bad writing. 2. Something that will be explained later on. 3. Something that has been explained and I have not understood correctly. All three have happened before in this show, so I'm hoping all of these belong to the second or third category. Being more specific: - As some people have said here, Subaru not telling Beatrice he is "that person" especially when she's the one bringing up the topic. This cannot be attributed to Subaru's mental state, he clearly had the opportunity to tell her and he didn't. I need an explanation for this, we cannot keep repeating the same thing forever, "Subaru has seen some shit and he doesn't behave normally", because if you use that card you can do pretty much everything you want with Subaru and always give that excuse. - Why are the loops so different from each other? The rabbits coming at different times (the snow attracted them but why did not Roswaal create the storm at the sime time in both loops?), people acting differetly, like Garfield and a long etc. In this regard I no longer feel the same as season 1 in which the loops were identical from each other and what changed were only Subaru's actions. The author is probably aware of this, since it would be too much of a mistake to not address this, which means, that little actions Subaru does, even if we do not know which ones and why, it affects dramatically what happens here. This needs to be addressed, too. - Why doesn't Subaru die from the Rabbits this time? It was shown earlier how vicious they are, there is no way he should have survived long enough to see Emilia. They ate him alive in another loop. Again, explanation needed. - How does Subaru know that Roswaal is the one who created the Snowstorm? Maybe he deducts it can only be him? And if that is the case, he is smart enough to deduce this but not to tell Beatrice the words? As far as Subaru not wanting Beatrice to kill the little kid, makes no sense at this point, this is clearly a convenience so Beatrice can let her guard down and be stabbed by Elsa. He pretty much acts as the plot demands, like always. Regarding Emilia and how her behaviour doesn't make sense here. I dislike Emilia, but even I give her more props than some people here. I think it's obvious from both her eyes and her behavious that this is not a case of just her losing her mind because of trauma. There is probably some sort of possesion or another explanation for this. Come on guys, I dislike her too, but even for a badly written character like Emilia there are limits on how bad she can be handled, give her more credit than this, don't be biased. Againd, epending on how many answers are given to the many questions I have, this season can range from a somewhat repetitive but otherwise enjoyable, cohesive and well thought writing to a total trainwreck. That being said, people that have read the novels keep saying everything will make sense eventually so for now I will believe in them and assume that all of these questions will have reasonable answers. If this is assumed, then, this is clearly the best episode of this season for masterfuly building so many mysteries that will be explained later and yes, the voice acting is top notch even by Japanese standards. I will explain one of the points. Meilie is the kid from the village and he interacted with her and other kids. He liked them and she was one of them. It was explained in the episode (briefly with a flashback). Of course he would not want to kill a kid he liked and played with when all was sunshine (for the most part). |

ShiroHachi said: Geez seriously, there are hundreds of people here, but no one is questioning why Roswall is making snow fall to drive Emilia crazy, that's the point here. She's not going crazy just because Subaru left her, that's just one of the reasons. The biggest reason why she has gone crazy is her past. Snow, the reaction of the villagers, and Subaru leaving Emilia. It all triggers Emilia's past I guess nobody is questioning because it is quite obvious, even more if we watched Frozen Bonds movie. What is curious is that the snow always came after a stone-teleport. I dont know why it trigger Roswaal to use this artifice. Maybe the complete abscence of Subaru is necessary. |

Rob7 said: PendragonX1 said: That was a lot to unpack in one episode. First, we got Beatrice saving Subaru like a G. Then we get Emilia I believe at first I thought she was possessed by Satella I believe now she just went insane. Why that is IDK yet. https://i.imgur.com/uZ5vkfr.jpg  The random teleportations in this season are starting to be odd. So Beako can instant send people to Sanctuary? Ok Subaru, so you can rely on that, run with Petra, Freda and Rem to Beatrice's library, USE THE F* "IM THAT PERSON" (freeding Betty from the Library) and finally, everybody teleports to Sactuary. Sure, 1st have to deal with Roswaal somehow, or he will start to make it snow to drive Emilia crazy, and unintentionally call the rabbits. mozgow said: I think I can post those screenshots from episode 18 now, since they will make sense now, I think. If you wonder what happened to Subaru's letter, there is a hint in the previous episode. One thing is not right. It seems like Ros book is more "updated" than Beako's version. If Beatrice's book tells nothing new in years, so that time she could not know anything about Subaru's curse. Unless Roswaal is telling her. Can we assume that the maniac Ros is so confident to the Spirit in the Library? BUT he has a vow forcing he to dont reveal shit. Seems like a Plot hole. no, there are no plot holes |
| 5 people hating the episode. I knew it there's always a troll in the forum. Man this series deserves to be on 9 rating at least. |

AddiTeacha2 said: Emilia is such a bitch whore. She got abandoned for a day and she went nuts. I would have understand if it was satella. It's her true annoying ass self. Subaru also a dumb cunt. He made Beatrice died simply he doesn't want a loli to die. Ugh so annoying man. bruh this is why you need a brain to watch anime. |
|
| That last scene was done amazingly. The creepy music, the tension, the panning to Subaru's wounds. Wow. |
MoonSong87 said: Ros mentioned that he wanted to isolate emilia, why? for her to get stronger, grow and break through this challenge? or for some other nefarious reason? [i dont mind spoilers for this] Roswaal spoke a lot of plot twists everytime he said something on this episode he's basically hinting Subaru and Emilia to power themselves and not to rely too much on others. Because everytime it resets, they'll always face a new variable of puzzles. |
|
| Holy shit. Just holy shit... I have one question though: is Beatrice permanently dead now? Or will she also be alive when Subaru returns? |
 |
| This episode was insane. The best so far. This whole episode felt like a movie to the point I don't know where to start. I'm at a lost for words. Beatrice, Ram, the damn village girl. Elsa is a damn dark souls boss. Roswaal is a goddamn mastermind. Poor Subaru and Emilia. This has to be the worst timeline by far. I will say this though, Emilia must tap into Satella when she is in emotional stress. Even her last words to Subaru was that of envy. I'm guessing Emilia loves Subaru but not in a healthy way. The same with Satella? Damn this was a great episode. So much to unpack. 10/5 |

| Oh, ok, Beatrice's book no longer shows her future for some years, huh.. And also Beatrice at least 400 years old.. It means that all witches' business, them falling or stuff - happened around 400 years back?.. Well, if Beatrice was bound by contract by Echidna.. Well, yeah.. It's not just as easy as to just take Betty on the help, and then just go on with your life business or something.. No, that's not as simple as that.. For Betty it means more.. If you are going to take her from the contract to guard the place.. Then you have to become actually that person who she'll help forever.. Because that's what her contract says.. And.. Is Subaru ready to take such responsibility?.. If he takes Beatrice from the library.. He really has to take her everywhere with himself.. Btw, both Elsa and Maylie both use "kashira" as well.. But maybe that's just coincidence.. Though, if that is intentional detail that those close to witches maybe can get certain traits or something.. It's nice.. But probably just a coincidence.. Well, Beatrice's pro-suicidal position can come back in the future, I suppose.. Really, problems just get stockpiling.. It's just impossible at this point without incredible luck to solve everything.. Elsa, Maylie, snow rabbits.. Even with return by death, you also have to have more than enormous luck to fix everything at the same time.. As well as all characters are just on the edge as well.. Beatrice probably ok with suicide, if only she could do that, because spirits can't kill themselves, as she said.. And Emilia going yandere after some push.. This really just stockpiling all the problems.. How much more can we get?.. Honestly, it seems a bit of overkill.. Even if it's interesting.. Just because I see no way you can fix everything, really, and it'll all just end up in incredible luck.. I don't even believe it'll portray the importance of trying, or thinking, or something else, what can be important by coming back from dead.. I just honestly expect just some incredible luck to solve everything.. Which would kinda be eh, I don't know about that.. Though, I kinda am interesting in that crazy side of Emilia.. I like some yandere characters.. Maybe they won't do with this anything more, though.. I actually liked that moment, when Roswaal killed Garf through Ram.. Telling "you're truly great maid, Ram!".. That's at the same time badass.. And messed up.. And Roswaal knows that Subaru is returning by death, hm.. Well, there were some signs of that.. So.. Why he's still being dodgy of stuff then?.. Is he truly thinking he'll be able to avoid Subaru again, and again, and again, in all of the timelines?.. Eh, Roswaal wants to make Emilia emotionally unstable?.. What for?.. Argument that Subaru will distance himself from clingy Emilia is kinda strange.. Especially if he just openly says it to Subaru - Subaru will want to fix this situation.. So Roswaal's actions, motives and words are quite questionable, really.. It feels that either he's telling some BS.. Perhaps lying.. Or he doesn't know what the fuck he's doing, lol.. Because that's not how you make a man to abandon Emilia, by telling him everything, lol.. It will only cause rebellion.. It just doesn't make sense.. Also he beat Subaru.. What for?.. What are true intentions of Roswaal in the end?.. Maybe to make Subaru hate him?.. What for?.. His actions honestly doesn't make much sense.. He's probably lying about things.. |
| Solid episode. Wasn't too emotional with the Beatrice segment or blown away by it and the stuff after but it was still a nice one nonetheless. This season and show's improved over the past few weeks, to no surprise other than the pacing feeling more right compared to the start of the season. Still not a great season that leaves me speechless, but a big improvement from a 3/10 first season to a 6 where its at now for me (and can grow too if this part ends strong). |
Rob7 said: The first season foreshadowed Meili as a culprit. She disappeared after they recover the kids from the forest and villagers commented it. --- Know what, Satella is innocent® I am always saying it and the plot provides even more reasons to believe. - Roswaal is EVIL. It is more clear now than ever. - Roswaal is like Echidna's minion, he defeded her name like he is clear one, and his familly always have been there protecting Echdna's lands. That means, Echidna is evil too. If Roswaal is tormenting Emilia on purpose, so is Echidna who ultimately is Ros's boss. I've watched enough anime to know that when a suspitious character is depicted to be soooo good since the start for the MC, it is followed by plot twist when the MC discovers the true colors. Don't need to confirm or deny it, but the evidences now lead to this. For me both Envy & Greed sides are both doing it in the wrong way. And Subaru & Emilia are just mere pawns of their whole scenario and the poor victims. Both do adventures and taking hands of other lost people along the way. There's like no true definition of what GOOD & EVIL is. Exclude the Assassin Organization They're just doing what they think is right, in their own way. I think that's the point of this whole story of Re:Zero. At the end of the day we can only see the suffering. |

| Holy this episode was full of chills and unexpected moments. Also, why is there a “bounty” on the Roswaal residents/maids, is it something that will get explained this season or do they do it because their employer doesn’t like Roswaal? Dang, Emilia went bonkers and Subaru didn’t even try to save her because he knew she was too far gone, very sad :((. Another thing, that last scene with Emilia got me tripping with its eerieness and showing Subaru’s state after he was eaten by the bunnies. Lastly, Roswaal is insanely perceptive, maybe the book assists him in this respect, but nonetheless he is very intelligent and has a different outlook on life and ideals, very interesting. 10/10 episode |

| I don't remember when was the last time I felt this way while I was watching something. Probably Clannad years ago. This is so good that I need to reevaluate my other anime scores. |
| Dub = fake crap. Always. |
anime-prime said: One of the most emotionally depressing episode so far. It feels like the next return by death will be the last (of part one anyway). Subaru should have enough information now and enough of a drive to try as hard as he ever had before. Additionally, it is best when a narrative has an upward scale, either of fights or of emotional drama, and since I find it hard for another episode to top this one emotionally, it makes sense for this to be the last one before a breakthrough happens. As much as I like it, I still feel like the episode count up until now could have been condensed a bit. The exposition dumps don't help much. Even though they are needed, there are better ways of giving audiences information than just dumping it in occasional soliloquies. Absolutely not, in fact the anime is condensing a bit too much. Re:ZERO is the kind of mystery series that makes heavy use of Chekhov's guns and asks its audience to constantly think while also delivering an engaging character drama, and you can't do that without the proper puzzle pieces. Information is revealed gradually and in a natural way between characters, and that is good. |
| Roswaal donuted not 1 but 2 characters today. Dio could never hold a candle to Roswaal-sama. I reject my humanity, Subaru-kun! |
