| Immediately starting with Otto's sound hitting Subaru's face, I was a little startled lmao. And This time Subaru was assisted by Otto Was Emilia's memory sealed by a contract with Puck? And the Puck canceled the contract. Don't go Puck!  Smol Emillia is so cute |
 |
| Starting from where part 1 left off. Otto didn't hold back against Subaru and laid bare his feelings and glad to see they got through to him. Dang so Puck has left Emilia, wonder why he had to leave her but ofc if it wasn't inevitable he would never do that. So Puck was sealing Emilia's memories and now with him gone her memories came back. The first thing we see in the flashback is her mom who was beautiful. Thou I didn't fully get what she meant by saying dun hate the people who said they'd protect you. Was Emilia betrayed as a child? I'm curious to find out. Yep LoliLia's cute. |

| I can feel the despair already...especially from Emilia. Seems this episode is setting up for more storytelling for rest of the season. Otto Suwen's role is clever already from this episode. I can only hope this season will go into more depth into his character. |

| The rollercoaster is back! Btw, Subaru have his crap beaten out by OTTO, even by Ottototo-san!? It is the best way to start a new season. The suffer is infinite. |

Need to keep my tissues ready. This episode in itself felt emotional. Emilia and Puck's relationship is beautiful. I cried at the Puck part especially if you watched Frozen Bond. Decent episode. I also enjoyed the breaktime. It was cute.   Also, forget to mention but small EMILIA IS THE CUTEST! My heart is melting T.T  To see if Puck would come out |

No, I corrected my message now. Not at the same time. OP plays when Otto smirks. It was at the end. Edit:- Sorry, it was the ED lol I mixed them up |

LightVelox said: it's probably the calculations cause only 300+ people have rated right now It should be 9,17 if the stats are correct, maybe a bug yeah |
|
7 in MAL is far from good, considering there almost no "normal anime" that are rated 6 or below |
| Some people still care about MAL scores lol |

| yeah, Her cuteness is unbeatable |

LightVelox said: Didn't fully release and 351 people already rated it to a 7, classic haters That's is why I never look at scores anymore. They are hardly indicative of any or actual quality these days. |
| We're back to more suffering... Otto is still BEST BOY, after fighting through hell back and forth, Subaru just doesn't want to listen and admit his mistakes after all the warp with the Witches of Sin and Roswaal's "sleight of hand" calculated plan in the 1st Cour / Part 1. A STRAIGHT BET with everything against him, Subaru's willing to challenge the hands of fate: Roswaal, Emilia, loli Ryuzu's plans (of copy Ryuzus) and everyone else who could be dragged into his whirlpool of saving Sanctuary and making Emilia ruler, all while dismissing any potential "Return by Death" circumstances. Any scene with Emilia is always cutesy nice, but to face their troubles as-is in the Trial isn't as easy as pie. The Frozen Bonds OVA tie-in from her memories with Puck (his spirit wrapped in the emerald stone), it sure causes a rift from within. So once it's young Subaru, now it's Lia's turn to experience her young tragedy once again...? She sure seems fine for now, but with Puck gone and a break of contract, the only hope for her is the trusting Subaru to bring her through a phase of her past, memories unsealed. Garfiel and Ram caught within the conspiracy trap of Subaru and Ryuzu, the crazy adventure RE-starts again... |

| The episode was fucking dope! Also what's up with the weird MAL scoring and ridiculous reviews..... |
 Maybe try sleeping? |
| That's a lot of information to take in all at once with the 4 clones being different from each other. Subaru making a bet against Roswaal to see if he can save them both and not make a choice between the two. That and we also found out why Emilia wants to be the ruler. To save her people frozen in ice. Of which I guarantee you that since it's Roswall he can't actually save them. and just wants the power to puppet Emilia on the throne.  Overall I liked this episode but a lot of it went over my head prob because it's been a few months since the last episode. |

| ah yes many years ago many web novel said season 2 will be the time Emilia to shine, but it turns we have a split cour. Hope white fox really can pull it off because this part will be the answer for my first statement. |
 |
| Wow...what a great start in the second part...Puck moments was really sad... Anyway Subaru and his poor odds again, but we know that he can always manage it somehow... |
 |
| I did not expect them to show Fortuna so soon. Damn, I can't wait so see |
 |
| Subaru is actually starting to become a cool character which is something I like Props to Otto for beating the crap out of Subaru |
| Great episode, looking forward to what we will get from Emilia! |
| EMT |
| Alright so episode finally dropped on CR. Art seems to be an improvement over the first court, we’ll see how that progresses. Loved straight bet being in the episode, thought it flowed really well with the first few minutes. This was mainly a set up episode, but there were some changes from the LN. The Subaru and Roswaal bet is different. Ryuuzu and Hector’s past was pushed back to vol. 14. Subaru also had a conversation with Puck about the trials in the LNs before the contract was broken. Other than that, pretty good first episode. Can’t wait until we get until the meaty stuff. |
 |
| Eyyyy here we go again, Wednesday Re: Zero time! Starting off with quite the episode here too, there is a lot to cover, and my heart is hurting from just how that last part came about. As if the ep was a mix of Subaru getting his plans in motion in order to move forward, and that touching bits in between, very good episode. |
| Just finished watching the Episode, considering they were adapting 100+ pages of content in this episode, they did it well. Some scenes may feel a little bit too fast because they were rushed a bit, worry not though as at least the next 2 Episodes are going to get great pacing. Can't wait for next episode, which is Reason to Believe most likely. |
* |
| Shit, Wednesday is gonna be packed like this. Tomorrow is Quintessial and Hataraku Saibou, and on Saturday will be Horimiya. Winter is really gonna be packed. |
 I said keep your hands on the table |
| Let Emilia be happy for a minute ffs. Like the others said, loli Emilia was so cute. |
 |
| This first episode was already legendary, I loved all the Emilia moments especially the whole thing with Puck even though it's really sad. I'm ready for a 10/10 cour again |
 |
| I thought it was an alright start(felt like too much was going on) but I'm excited for this cour. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| bruh can't believe they played an insert song that released quite a while ago lol. One of the better Myth and Roid songs though but fuk Rem, fuk Emilia, Otto is the true best girl. |
 'On-Hold' is another way for a completionist to say 'Dropped' |
