Jesus damn christ hug your mother idiot! Than this can i pat you on the head... I will never want to understand that. + Show Spoiler + I agree with you two. I also disliked who uneasy Ushio was around his mom, wtf. | ||

If he paid attention he should also know she's a demon. Need next episode already! :D speaking of ReZero, what's up with this from most recent episode: + Show Spoiler + ![]() he dies on his 2nd day (or night) in the mansion and he's reliving that 2nd day doesn't he? Or am I misunderstanding the situation? Is he implying he knows about the situation at hand? | ||

Yes you are misunderstanding. + Show Spoiler + In the 2 loops where he died, he did so in the night between the 4th and 5th day. When Roswaal talked to him he already was on the 4th day and on his way to leave the mansion before he gets killed. IIRC this was told in ep 4 or 5, I don't remember which one. | ||

+ Show Spoiler + I don't think a ball would lop off your arm like it did in the 2nd loop. So I still think that both ram and rem have killed Subaru in the 2nd and 3rd loop so ram in the 2nd and rem in the 3rd. The first loop is probably because of the dog. There were no curse like effect this time because he never went shopping and thus never was bit by the dog when he either said he has or that we saw it in the previous two loops. | ||

+ Show Spoiler + I don't think that the dog has anything in particular to do with the sickness/poison that makes him weak. Could you explain why you think that? MC explicitly said this episode that he gets killed in the evening of the 4th day. The previous loops had this structure: 1st day: Wake up, spaz out, run into Beatrice again, have an event with Emila & Puck, have lunch/dinner where he meets Roswal and asks to be hired on as a butler. Day 2-4: Butler shenanigans, Rem or Ram events Day 4 evening: Murdered by maido This episode. Muh fairy tail symbolism & parallels. Even though I get that MC is probably traumatized as fuck from his whole world-hop situation + looping via brutal deaths, dude needs to stop acting like a spaz and start investigating the likely choices that lead to death. My take: It would probably be a good thing to stop declaring your undying love for Emilia & how you want to be with her. I know she's extreme QT but she's supposedly a candidate for the monarchy being sponsored by Roswal. It seems pretty obvious that he considers you an unnecessary distraction and is having you removed. Take your death, and next loop get out of dodge and see if you get hunted down; you can also probably meet up with Knight Captain Guy and Felt. I feel spoiled by this really good original story about a guy stuck in a time loop in terms of MCs who use their brain when looping. | ||

His guesses were just completely off because he assumed it was an attacker targeting Emilia because of the whole throne situation. | ||

Did I watch the same episode as them? If he does too extreme things then he has even less of a clue what will happen. He's trying to figure out what the fuck happened the first two deaths, considering he got no clue what he could've possibly done wrong. And he definitely made progress in both of the last episodes. Honestly, I'm liking the MC more and more... and many seem to agree. Emilia is the best tho, them smiles. Of course people wanna see him move on, but I like the pacing so far and it appears the anime is actually following the LN nicely (I don't read it, just know it from MAL comments). Gotta remember it's 25 episodes, not 12 episodes like most animes. And apparently the first two stories can be seen as an introduction to the world, so who knows what we are in for. | ||

(Cannonball to the knee.) Also, the ball in question had some rather pronounced spikes. As for the poison - they cook all the food. I don't know that the dog is a factor. The only thing this time around that he notes is that the tea "still tastes horrible". So I don't think really that you should be maligning the dog, when there's two matched demon maids right there that are doing all the cooking, cleaning, etc. | ||

+ Show Spoiler + The dog has appeared in every loop except for the 3rd one so far and he did not lose all his energy in the 3rd loop unlike the first 2. The conversation with betty this episode hints that subaru was killed by a curse in the times that he lost all of his energy and has nothing to do with poison. Poison is not even mentioned in any of the last 3 episodes. When the dog bit him in loop 2, look at how much blood came out of his hand. That's not normal. Rem wants to kill Subaru without anyone from the castle knowing in the 3rd loop. This leads to how i think Roswaal is not involved in this decision. So it's likely that Roswaal has done nothing in the last 3 loops to try and kill subaru. The Tea tasting horrible didn't do anything to subaru this loop considering that Ram drank the tea as well. I'm convinced that the dog from the village is important here because he wasn't bitten this loop unlike the previous ones. So the dog can probably cast the curse as well along with betty and puck. Mysteries love to go with the culprit that is easily forgettable. That is dog. Ram and Rem are issues as well but they prefer to kill you with some chain-like weapon and can be reasoned out with at the end through befriending both of them | ||

Everything is possible really. Also someone posted a pic on MAL wondering why Rem and Ram have their hair so that you can only see one eye, and those eyes colorwise are similar to those of Roswaal (who has two different eye colors). Could also mean something, maybe he knows more than we think. Even if Rem said only she is trying to kill him. Honestly soo many things you can think about, also someone noticed that Roswaal and Betty have head accessory, she could be his spirit (or something similar). But also just a guess, though not too far fetched imo. (I have neither read the LN nor do I think to have read relevant spoilers? If I did I wouldn't know.) | ||

Problem is... these are the same people that freak out about potential zombies, so it makes no sense. The train hits some rubble and literally bounces into the air at one point. I'm not sure why that was added, honestly, because you'd expect the train to derail from that. Seems odd, considering the tone of the show. Maybe they wanted to spice up the action scene a bit? Samurai dude gets stabbed and not bitten because he's clearly too plot essential to die. MC earns the people's trust by saving them. That was real weird, since it didn't seem like the people cared all that much the first time he saved them all. The action didn't seem particularly impressive this time around either. + Show Spoiler + Well, I think the Samurai scene was ok. They opened fire after he got stabbed so the Kabane moved back. What is more weird is: Why is he moving back if literally not bullet or sword the oponent had at the time could penetrate his skin?... The train bounces were weird and yeah, I think they did it to spice up the action. I thought the action was quite juicy again. I enjoyed the fight.

Rifles and what not have been shown to somewhat capable of piercing their heart cages before in the show. It just takes several hits in the same spot. Mumei for instance runs around and shoots the same spot several times in a row with her guns, and it eventually does the trick. | ||
