Gakuto breaks his Guan Yu Figurine actually made me sad & appreciate friendship more.

I really liked seeing him break down mentally, completly. That's the kind of thing I'd expect to see happening if you go through those things. Hell, even spending your days, making memories with people, the one you love no less and then having everything reset while you can remember and they don't seems like something that would drive people insane quite quickly imo. I can only guess that things like Groundhog Day gave a rather postive outlook on stuff like that but I certainly don't want to imagine what that would be like.
Obviously seeing what happened to Rem and the others completly pushed him over his limits.

And like I said, I liked seeing that because it's what I'd expect to happen after he's going trough painful death after painful death, seeing his friends getting killed nonstop and being the only one aware of the situation with noone to talk to. And then we had that ending with him being all determined. I can only assume it's him being fueled by rage but if you're that broken I don't think a "okay let's get back on the bike" attitude is just going to do the trick, even if it's triggered by anger/madness to hurt the people that hurt Rem&co.

Idk, long story short I would have expected him to stay a mental potato after that and wasn't convinced yet by the turning point. Hence really looking forward to next episode to see if that rectifies it/adds more to show to what degree he's still nuts

Yea, but you can't let the shows progression get bogged down by prolonging Subaru's catatonia. It'd wreck any momentum and I can definitively imagine it would turn off viewers.

Just gotta get on with the show.

it's just a shitty situation to be in.
Watching him be a mental potato for a while is what I want to happen but then again I'm fairly sure noone wants to actually watch such a show. Including myself.

I'm just set up for disappointment no matter what happens

Was really hooked the first 1-2 episodes. Not so much anymore in the middle. The last episode was good again until I realized that that's the ending... just like that
They said that the fireworks/summer vacation was the first semester, the whole ReLife thing is an entire year so there's still a 2nd semester to this I'd assume?
The reveal of Kayanon being the first test subject was super obvious but I didn't mind that. Just the fact that this ended up being the mother of all "go read the source if you want an ending"-ending we got here...

That being said, I actually liked it. I'd watch a season2 both for enjoyment as well as to get a proper end but I highly doubt we'll get one.

So it seems SoumaxErina is being shipped by train.

I love the SS Erina so much. can they just hook up already. Their moment this chapter was so cute with the Stars and everything.

She even laughed!

Old hag ruins it at the end though

I think his mental break was a good thing. I think it could have done in a way better way over the last few episodes but it kind of was what the show needed. Now if he just goes back to his normal stupidity, filled with rage, that would be bad. I don't know, the show is kind of on the edge of getting ok for me right now. That said, the new villain is terrible.

Rem is awesome though.

The reset mechanic is connected to the witch. We don't know why yet but I don't think we should necessarily know it at this point because of how the story went. The characters had no chance of learning about it and in this case the viewer should learn it when the characters learn it.

Same goes for Emilia. Although the most recent episodes kind of hinted at their connection to the witch? Did anybody notice Emilia's body was the only one that didn't show up dead in the massacres? We only saw her flower once, that's all.
