Everyone has their preferences and if dub works for them then Im all for it. I only ever watched sub for this show so itll be an interesting new experience (though atm sub is still better). However isnt s2 onwards only sub for now? Did they dub it yet?

Jesse Collins

They have. Though dub watchers are still waiting for the second part to be dubbed.

The last flashback was two years after Wilhelm's and Theresa's last interaction. The 9 year Demi-human Civil War ended due to a huge part to Theresia. As she was a formidable generation of Sword Saint due to two of her Divine Protections. One being the Divine Protection of the Death God, which any wound inflicted on someone by her, will never heal. The second protection is Divine Protection of the Sword Saint, which gives her inhuman intuition and insight while maximizing her latent swordsmanship talent and knowledge of combat towards a level few could reach. This resulted in allowing Theresia to break down any kind of technique or attack directed at her while simultaneously showing gaps in them for the most optimal counter. These manifest as spectral "white lines" that only she could see which are implied to be guidance from the "Sword God". However, if someone possess equal or greater skill relative to hers the lines will distort making her opponents attack paths difficult to read. Which Wilhelm eventually being among the few in this flashback. A Royal Ceremony was to be held in her favor for her achievements and to acknowledge as the Sword Saint, with people across nations came to see. If the ceremony were to be left uninterrupted, she would have definitely left with a unshakable reputation as the Sword Saint and her name would have gone down in history for eternity. Except Wilhelm suddenly appeared after two years of suddenly vanishing after their last interaction, having to have train for all those two years and was able to finally best her and take that title of Sword Saint from her, freeing her from a bondage of duty, so she was no longer bound to be something that she never wanted to be in the first place, due to mostly of the reason of not wanting to use the 'sword' to hurt others. Here you see Wilhelm taking up her duty in her stead, the reason being simply to 'protect' her. Volume 3 of Re:Zero EX: The Love Ballad of the Sword Devil, tells what all happens after that.

After this episode it's pretty hard not to root for Crusch.

The thing that flows

I'm surprised no one has asked yet where Rem keeps her mace. Or did I miss it?

L.C.

So close to season 2 I can feel it. Season 2 blows season 1 out of the water in my opinion. It is what makes this series one of my favorites of all time.

L.C.

In terms of actual skill on the political side and be a ruler I would want Crusch just based on what we know so far. However, Emilia has better reasoning and we find out more about that later in season 2.

L.C.

Nahid is on the rem side now but I wonder how he will feel later on....

Jesse Collins

Lol, I did the whole Giggku, 'I love Emilia', joke on the Q&A post for Nahid. Let's see how he responds to that. 🤣

Just reading the first two sentences looks like this is a bunch of spoilers.

Maybe she keeps it on the ground dragon, maybe she summons it...not sure.

I feel season 2 coming and I'm soooo excited. You guys though that the whale's death here was gruesome, just wait and see what this show has in store for you. I love this anime.!!!

Alex cleveland

lol the romance in re zero can get a lil cringy ngl 😂🤦🏽‍♂️

Jesse

The remaining episodes of the season are some of my favorite of the entire series (so far). The culmination of Subaru learning his lessons and getting allies to help him take on the Witch's Cult. GET HYPE.

payasoloco

Not feeling the dub tbh. I think this might be my last episode for this series. You guys do what you feel is best tho!

Dooly

So did they drop it? Honestly that’s a good thing. Re:Zero deserves better. Better they stick with shounen. Anything other than that is a bit too much.

Matthew H

Ah yes not liking the show as much as you did means its too much for them. What a pompous attitude you have.
