| I hope we at least get animation as good as the stuff in the first arc for the finale or something. Very few scenes impressed me, and people were praising this because there was no CGI? Also that one sword slice when Butler Bro was falling from the sky felt pretty floaty(similar to Subaru's sword attack in episode 11/10). Not a big moment just bothered me a little Butler bro was obviously going to die, he had way too many death flags to not die. Unless he magically survives through Spiral Power or something, they literally just pulled an Akame ga Kill and gave a character a big backstory to kill them off a second after. A TL;DR for today's episode: group fights a giant monster, monster is too strong for them, monster has friends, akame ga kill, episode ends. Aldaar said: FroG1986 said: Compared 2 the fighting animations at the start of the series....this fight was pretty disappointing.... I think you should drop the show if you give it a 1 after 20 episode . I think that 1. you shouldn't tell anyone what to do with their watching habits and 2. why would I watch 20 episodes of something I hate and then just stop when there is only 5 episodes left? Just a waste of time, may aswell finish it at that point. |

And why would she say that? ahahha maybe just like any other anime logic, when the antagonist is actually the main heroine lol |

You dont know where the Restart Point...he could be on the Market...and do that stuff again ? haha no Correction: Subaru doesn't know. If the restart points start randomly following their own logic, then Subaru can't do anything about it, but the story isn't going to do that. |

| Ugh. That eye scene though. Man! They can't even beat 1 whale and now they have 3 whales and worst is that there's a fog. Complete disadvantage. (Didn't read the LN)... Did Wilhelm die at that last scene? |
 |
| Very good episodes, probably the best one so far I wonder how they will beat multiple whales |
L-Ryoshi said: Jagd84 said: No the show never said that about Whale's ability that your assumption, and the Witch will kill anyone who succesfullu hears his about ability not halfway. Becauae Subaru usually stopped before unless he struggles against as I said eariler. The fact they can do that shows that Fog of Elimation is not omipotent. Okay, now I'm even more confused. What was the purpose of Subaru trying to show Ram that room that belonged to Rem? I mean, wasn't that scene to show to Subaru how thoroughly the erasure of Rem's existence was by showing that even all of her stuff in the Roswell mansion had also disappeared? He walked into that room and had a look of absolute shock. If he had found something that belonged to Rem in that room, then shouldn't he have been waving it in front of Ram's face to try to get her to remember her sister? It seemed to me in that scene, he was shocked because none of Rem's memento's existed at all. If that were the case, then shouldn't absolutely everything about the existence of the soldiers erased be completely wiped from everyone's memory? The remaining soldiers wouldn't even know that the person who was erased even existed, no? Wouldn't their memories just register those squads having began with less people? Not to mention if each squad had one or two persons erased, then they would just remember assigning 13 or 14 people in each squad instead of 15 (taking the numbers above as an example of course), no? thats what im trying to say. i am confused as well because rem got erased thoroughly but the soldiers managed to somehow left some track. i hope they later explain why was rem's case different to the soldiers |
| why am i so well drawn into time travel stories? do i really have that many regrets? |
Jagd84 said: envy__ said: actually nope. the whale can erase your existence to the very root. remember when rem got eliminated by it, subaru tried to show ram the set of beds they were supposedly sleeping on in the same room together but even rem's bed vanished. meaning it could even erase the memories of the squad that they had 15 members and replace it with 14. another is when subaru called the whale through revealing return by death. for fucks sake. didnt the witch demonstrate to him what will happen if he disobeys? as if emilia's death had no impact at all. it couldve killed cruch or rem or everyone at that moment but he did anyway i dont know. i defend re zero most of the time but these are very contradicting No the show never said that about Whale's ability that your assumption, and the Witch will kill anyone who succesfullu hears his about ability not halfway.

Darkconfidant7 said: I would far rather be critical of a show than blindly miss all of its faults otherwise you would have to give every show a 10 and settle for mediocrity. You give criticsm when it is warranted not when you feel like it. If anything it just shows you're looking for flaws wherever you can regardless of context or reasoning like any troll does. actually everything is an assumption at this point. but still, subaru knows what MIGHT happen as HE EXPERIENCED IT BEFORE. theres no knowing if the witch will kill someone or not but the risk is too huge. emilia's death should be a big reminder not to use that anymore but he did anyway without any second thought. that alarmed me as a viewer as if subaru forgot what happened to emilia as it didnt impact his use of the power |

Stark700 said: THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- The battle is awesome, nice to see that whale monster in more details. The flashbacks also reinforces Wilheim's desire to fight, what a boss. MVP of the episode imo when he went rage on that monster. White Fox did a good job at the choreography too imo. I think the flashbacks are important for characterization. Oh and Subaru got more badass :o Wilheim :(  I call this episode " In the Heart of the Tree" |

| Well, so much for me not hating this show completely. This episode sucked ass, unsurprisingly. |
| :3 |
| God dang, I have to get myself mentally prepared to watch this anime every week, it's so good, but I always have this bad feeling in my gut, like something is going to go horribly wrong, I can't relax or anything. Anyway, as for the episode itself, never would have guessed that guy in the flashback was the old man, like, wow. The technology in the world is surprisingly awesome. And ummm... considering how big the whale is, I didn't think a sword would do THAT much too it, but in the end, it was about as effective as I had imagined it would be from the beginning. What I didn't expect were ALL THOSE WHALES THOUGH. Wonder how they are gonna deal with that. Also, the intro. Like nearly everything in the intro has passed except for the last part with Emilia at the big tree and maybe something I missed, don't know, didn't look that hard. Last thing, I can't see Subaru killing himself or getting killed now of all times, seems like he has gotten too far in this too lose it all now. |
A Wild and Small Otaku has Appeared! |
| Guys, quick question: Why did Subaru had them go after the whale again? He formed an alliance to save the guys in the mansion, but he didnt mention any of that in the deal. Where is this going? |

He needs to take the short route in order to reach the manor in time but there's the whale at the short route. Giving info about the whale should be enough to win Crusch over to the alliance because the stones didn't weight enough in the negociation to her. |

This and probably the fact that Subaru actually needs Crusch and Anastasia's armies (or whats left of them after fighting the whale), in order to save Emilia? Taking the short route is fine and all, but without any help, Subaru and Rem will end up dying to the Cult all over again. |

Tony_SansNom said: Chdata said: I thought the forgetting was part of his curse, people who die near him are forgotten. It "could" still be possible at this point, but this anime tends to like to keep the simplest explanation or keep its small "tells", so most likely it was just the whale I guess. Kinda lame. ...hm? The whale has a power, with its fog it can erase people from existance (granted they are killed in/by said fog). It's got nothing to do with a curse. Like i pretty much just said... |

| I feel like Wilhelm's death was stupid. He literally got swallowed hole. He could've stabbed his sword into the tongue or inside the mouth somewhere and somehow manage a way out while the whale screams. It's not like he was impaled in half like the captain was. RIP him btw. ERMAHGERD 3 WHALES. RIP everyone* |

Ah the crying came after she told something to him. Hadn't paid much attention to this scene. So @Envy__, there was some hesitation - it was just too brief. Otherwise as shown below, he'd not have the need to calm himself and create resolve. But yeah perhaps his hesitation should've been shown more - along with a more determined expression afterwards. |

| @Rehls Also, Subaru doesn't tell people to listen to him, he tells them to cover their ears. He perfectly understands the implication of what he is saying and doing. |
| "Vaut mieux se suffire à soi que finir assoiffé dans le monde des apparences." |
see? that moment changes a lot of things. i really couldnt understand why they skipped something like that. and it may be difficult to convey this in anime but man, we're talking about white fox here. theyve done a lot of outstanding adaptations before |
| why am i so well drawn into time travel stories? do i really have that many regrets? |
NNick said: So I basically wasted my time. Great. Remind me next time to check the source material before spending so much time. That can be said about most anime adaptations. |
 |
NNick said: So, basically, nothing will get resolved by the end of 25. Oh well, I wouldn't say I had any expectations to begin with. well the main thing in this arc will be resolved but after sloth there are 6 more sins so yea |
Revert67 said: NNick said: So I basically wasted my time. Great. Remind me next time to check the source material before spending so much time. Well, if you didn't like it and therefore decided you wasted your time you indeed wasted your time. I don't undestand what this has to do with the source material. He probably thinks we'll never get a second season or more. Some people think "just because there is more material doesn't mean it will necessarily be adapted". |
| "Vaut mieux se suffire à soi que finir assoiffé dans le monde des apparences." |
I found this and couldn't be happier about how accurate it is. I just had to share it. |
| Loved it. Fun action, good use of flashbacks, and a pretty epic cliffhanger. |
 |
| Good episode. Will there be a Season 2? I can't see how the story will wrap up by 25. Im expecting some fucked up cliffhanger like the end of code geass season 1 and having to wait months before season 2 |
