5:05 "A little cringey" So true. I've that some reactors dropped the show after this episode. All the cringe is on purpose but it *is* hard to watch when you're not familiar with what's coming up.
Well since S2 Episode 4, the trial of his past. She said she created that trial from His memories. So it would explain how she would know that from Subaru.
Loophole explanation. Aqua assumes Uehara (husband) cheated on his wife, Airi (Taiki's mom) with Ai. He neglect the possibility that Airi cheated on her husband with another man and gave birth to Taiki and the husband found out, killed her and then himself. As we can see from the end of this episode, the blonde hair man is the biological father showing that Airi cheated and Uehara isn't the Biological father.
The revelation that akane was having was that the loophole is the mom was having an affair with himekawa & aquas dad (the blonde man) which made their non-biological father freak out and kill his wife. Ai meets this guy later on and has aqua and Ruby at a young age too so maybe this guy is a creep also? But yeah that’s just my head cannon
Celebrities are liars. Oshi no Ko teaches us this very lesson. Recently (literally yesterday), a popular EN VShojo Vtuber named Froot was found to have CHEATED on her husband who was away deployed on military service. She cheated with multiple men, took money for herself during charity streams, and more. And yet many Vtubers have sided with her. Its so easy for the narrative to favor the person with the highest follower count. Celebrities are liars.
As Akane said, the loophole is simple. Himekawa is Aqua's half brother, and Himekawa thinks that his dad is Seijuuro Uehara, making that man Aqua's dad too. But Uehara wasn't the dad of Aqua nor Taiki Himekawa. Airi Himekawa had an affair with the man who'd later become the father of the twins. That's why the half sibling thing is still a thing and also would be a great motive for that murder suicide, aka Uehara found out his wife was pregnant with someone elses child (someone who looks pretty young, around Ai's age who would have been 12-13 around the time Himekawa was born).
8:22 In the LNs, it felt like there was an episode's worth of cut content relating to Subaru, Priscilla and Al. I hope they can get some of that stuff into s3.
The guy who did the murder-suicide killed his wife because she had cheated with the guy at the end of this episode. Producing Aqua's half-brother. Then the guy at the end of the episode had a fling with Ai - producing Aqua and Ruby. *That's the loophole* Akane figured out.
16:00 It's easier to ask yourself, why another witch wouldn't know through death, since the witch of envy has the power to conceive the other person coming back from death, why another witch, who is in the same position, thinking like a system where , firstly the Gods, secondly the witches, thirdly the demons (majuus). Because the witch of envy would be in a higher hierarchy. All witches should know, since they are in the same position.
If to convince Emilia, he would need to say that he comes back through death, and just because of that he can have the chance with Emilia, that is disappointing, because Rem (That he doesn't care, as much as Emilia) did everything, even without knowing and without questioning. In my view, it is not advantageous to say that it comes back through death. As for witches and bishops, they believe that they are similar or equal, in the sense of objective. Everyone follows their role/sin to the letter, I don't know how it works, but if the echidna is made to obtain as much knowledge as possible, it goes as directly as possible. Probably the Subaru should be the means, not an end in itself. Re:zero is a very controversial anime regarding heroines, when the 2nd season was released I only saw it talking about echidna. Whenever I see the word "Teki" = Enemy I remember the anime "Aldnoah zero" I think it was the phrase that the protagonists repeated most among themselves. It is interesting that a person knowing what gospel is or knowing the characters leads to the conclusion that she is part of the group, but Beatrice is a spirit, which in season 1 becomes weaker the further away from the mansion, when Ram was behind the subaru, but because she is a spirit she is thousands of years old, so she must have more answers about the gospel or the bishops than the subaru itself. It should be seen as an opportunity. 7:46 finally the positions are reversed, oto is subaru, and subaru is emilia. I believe that Oto is in another timeline saving the subaru and thinking about how to save this subaru. It's probably this line of thoughts that people who ship BL, I believe, I don't know the gay names for anime, It must be from this line that they get gay ships, or that Garfield attacked Subaru out of jealousy of Emilia. When I was a child, those films with the animal species and "Killer" after the name were famous, re:zero created the "Killer Rabbits". 10:52 what the fuck, I'm pissed off seeing this, the guy turned into Petergeuse by hitting his head.
The smell grows stronger the more he dies, the same way it does when he trys to tell people and the witch gets close and personal. And on top of him asking earlier before Garf sees how the trials affect Emilia is why he acted differently. The Margrave(pronounced Mar-Grave btw) otto is referring to is roswaal. Its a noble title, and basically the Margrave's are the overseers of a domain, they run it and protect it. Its also hereditary so its been in his family for a while.
From all the things Rem told us in the 2nd and 3rd arcs it seems like the smell grows stronger every time he returns, and that's behind why Garf had a different reaction every time.
I... watch the video!? 11:15 Who said that only the petergeuse was the brain trembles? Look at the Subaru hitting its head on the ground like it was hitting a communist My fear is that Subaru will have a brain injury and no longer have the discernment to kill himself. Haha, to be friends with Subaru you have to have two big breasts and have big hair. The first thing or one of the first things that in the novel, and maybe in the anime, Subaru talked about was being summoned by a princess in this isekai.
Edit: I was probably wrong. The different reaction that time was from the increase in miasma. The same thing happened with Rem. Both times he had died twice when Garf and Rem had the strongest reaction to it
Spoilers season 2 It's not good to reinforce that because what Subaru thinks is immediately undermined by Garfiel working with him easily in the loop against Satella. The actual answer is unclear especially in the anime but whether or not Garfiel knows about the witch scent is based on whether Subaru's been around Ryuzu Shima and she's passed on the info(she's the only one who really just wants sanctuary's barrier to stay because of her trial seeing Ryuzu Meyer's past). Garfiel can't smell it at all but gets pissed at Subaru having a connection with witches because he hates Echidna and Roswaal.
@@siginotmylastname3969 I’ve finished arc 6 of the LN. Do you know when that information is revealed? If the answer is past where I am up-to-date, you don’t have to tell me. I might just be forgetting but I don’t recall ever learning that. Omega related? Quick googling seems to confirm what you say. I always just thought the difference in his behavior was just because of the extreme circumstances.
This show is amazing and one of my favourite stories of all time BUT this episode is easily one of the best Episodes of Television I have ever seen in my life
I don't think it was that bad. Unless his save point gets updated, his save point is not going to change no matter how long he takes. There's an IF story where Subaru lives for over 10 years without dying, but once he finally dies he resets back 10 years, much to his surprise.
@@norwa3518during arc 3 his save point already changed twice, from the day he was left with Crusch at the mansion to the meeting before fighting Petelgeuse, and THEN to the moments before he killed himself trying to get Rem back(or in the carriage but the anime only changed it slightly). He doesn't have a lot of faith in his save points right now.
