...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.

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.

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.

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.

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~

Of course Subaru had to make the speech, why even the discussion?
Subaru speech was great, didn't really like the talking down on himself,
but later it developed into something beautiful and I nearly cried because it was so kind.

Still no idea how they want to beat any of the bishops, Capella is a beast, Sirius is worse than satan and Regulus an evil pimp.
I actually think Regulus is cool, but I don't like how he is dominating his women with fear and murder.

Entire episode just for a speech? I mean, it wasn't bad I liked it, but I didn't feel anything special in particular, maybe I just wasn't in the right mood.

Emilia connection is nice. Everyone trusting Subaru is nice. Al carring about Subaru as another normal person was nice. Speech was... well certainly long start, I could do without all that apologizing and self-reflecting at the start, Natsuki Subaru, spiritmancer who defeated Witch cult of Sloth etc something something around it would be enough for me.

But hey, player 2, Reinhart von Astrea has join the game. Now let's the fun begins! We have quite lot archbishops to slay!

Edit: Man this was extended runtime as well? I thought it just feels that way.
@Martin_Taylor I mean the speech shows just how much subaru has matured overtime. Subaru is just your average shut in guy, who has cripling anxiety ,you can't expect him to give a speech like erwin. Instead he just bared his feelings infront of evryone, about how he feels about himself, what is going on in his head at this moment but despite this he will not admit defeat. That's why it starts in a negative tone showing that subaru is scared too but he is not ready to give in to his feeling of desperation. That's why in the 2nd part it switches to a positive note.

Him giving this speech is much more impactful than others because subaru just like the other civilians is weak, he does not have superhuman powers like the other characters. Some one like reinhardt (who is suoer strong) giving the speech would make the civilians think "Yeah it's easy for you to say but we don't have any powers like you." If the the civilians start thinking lie that than due to wrath's authority everything would go haywire and lead to complete opposite effect of what the speech was actually intended for.
