Comments

smth positive_

The ending scene of Subaru crying because of losing Rem after everything he went through with the ost playing just hits different

Pyzlnar

Luke being happy for "normal sized" reactions, but little did he know that Re:Zero went to the lengths of buying commercial slots to get full 30 mins aired for season 2. :P Enjoy the ride, season 2 is quite the treat!

Tamus Heath

Honestly it's the most incredible thing I've seen an anime do; especially with how often they skip the opening and ending. They really crammed everything they could into Re:Zero Season 2 and I love it

Von Yoosten

"We haven't seen Roswaal do anything, will we ever see him fight?" Oh Boy, I just finished S2P2 yesterday and God is that a Question at this Point xD

Arctic

A thing that isnt very clear in this episode but very important. That scene when subaru looks at the knife in Rem's room next to her bed is supposed to key us in to how he killed himself many times but he never could go back far enough. The scene we see is after he has lost all of his resolve and hope of saving her. Its super sad.

Arctic

Cruche still thinks the same way, its just she doesent remember what she has done or who she knows. Good thing she has Felis to help her with most of that stuff.

Ale brenna

Man if it was a pain waiting 6 episode for that thing in mushoku i have bad news for you

Muligan Shinzuo

Season 2 is gonna be fantastic. You will get ALOT of information about characters and the world.

Cookoutboi

Can't wait for my favorite character to be introduced

patros36

i love it so much, how above and beyond the whole team, from production to animation, went to squeeze out the absolute best experience we could get. Love White Fox studio

Luca Bellan

- really fantastic opening you did for season 2! Absolutely great! ... now, we'll play it around 2/3 times, too much things, too much talk, there's no tim-

Luca Bellan

I honestly won't mind returning to 1 episode at a time... but you will Luke, you will 🤣

william watson

This is the emotional season, buy some backup tissue before continuing.

Keith Merrington

Poor Rem - just when she had become best girl as well. Emilia will have to be best girl now.

Arctic

The first half of season 2 pushed what I love the most about Re:zero to the forefront and it is my favorite part of the whole show!

Alexander

Not just more emotional, but also just as cruel and depressing. Good thing I have a white plush bunny with me to keep me safe :)

Jay P

The reason why some episodes are few minutes longer is because the studio wanted to use every minute they could get. So they themselves bought the ad time and almost always skipped the opening and/or ending to maximize the amount of episode runtime. Just to make the episodes as good as they can be, even if it COST THEM. White Fox's dedication is just so insane.

Hwiyeop Kim

Damn I didn't know this lol. No wonder why the animation looked 'worse' than season 1 (not saying it was bad but not as good as season 1 from my perspective), they must've spent quite a budget to make it happen

ye s2 ep are still longer than normal anime ep because arc 4 is so long

Pakom

EMOTIONAL DAMAGE

nik

for sure! They really tried their hardest with Season 2, despite it airing when Covid hit the hardest! Also, sadly even with all their efforts, so much content was left out, but it's not their fault. Arc 4/Season 2 just has soooo much content that it's impossible to put it in 24 episodes fully.

nik

Yeah, the anime showed only 1 suicide. But in the novels, he died numerous times. He just, can't change his checkpoint which sucks.

Ricko Andrew

It felt so short lol

Devilish132 .

And as the Novel reader I can tell You in this moment, that season 3 would be even better than season 2 and season 4 would be even better than 3... Re Zero is this kind of story where it gets better and better as it goes. It can have some annoying settings at some point but after ending whole arc, looking back, You realise that what annoyed you at first was actually rly good.

Dethrox

Subaru is at that moment.. where we all have been.. (in videogames) ''man this checkpoint sucks..'' xDD

I can speak ok japanese so the scene with puck at 20:40 sounds more like "it seems I have a connection to that girl as well" (because of deshou at the end) As in I don't remember her but since I do know about the gluttony power I probably had things to do with her

paujd

For me S2 is far better, so many impactful moments I can't even count, 10/10 character progression and arcs and a far deeper lore focused plot

ArtKi

Season 2? TIME FOR THE PAIN! 22:45 "Krusch isn't dead?" No, she never died. When you saw Felis over her, Felis was distraught but he still saved her life and reattached (or regrew) her missing arm. Felis is Just That Good. Some people think Krusch didn't get hurt on the 2nd time around for that battle... but there was no 2nd time around. the battle against the 2 Arch-Bishops took place hours and hours before Subaru's save point.

yorozuyapetel

as someone who watched this season weekly, this season has the worst cliffhangers in any show ever and you have to be GRATEFUL you only have to wait two days before the next episode because that full week in between episodes was the most excruciating but at the same time satisfying thing ever

Devilish132 .

In light novel he killed himself with that knife and was back with it by his throat, instantly cut 2nd time thinking that it was some mistake and only then realizing that his checkpoint changed to the worst moment.

Devilish132 .

Is this bunny a size of your hand? Idk if it will keep You safe then, You better run :/

CC_Boi2000

There used to be a joke when this episode came out. What does the author do, when a side female character gets famous and shipped more than the heroine? The side character gets turned into a vegetable.

Lu C

Subaru mentioned the Return by death next to Rem and a group of people and nothing happened!!! Shouldn't there be a carnige thanks to the shadow hands? The lack of questioning this gift/curse by Subaru is disappointing. And no I didn't saw/read any Re:zero content before Luke started his reactions.

Anonymous

You've got to admit that this was a brilliant first episode into the next arc. Invested yet? Heh. ...but, this is Re:Zero. I don't know of any reaction that didn't get super upset during this episode. Even people who absolutely loathe and detest Subaru's character can't walk away from this one without feeling his loss. The way it grabs the viewer with a barbed hook is damn near traumatic, and yet can't look away for anything. Teppei is such a good writer. I mentioned this in other places, but this is the season where things go from fourth to sixth gear. A lot of questions you've had will get answered, but it shouldn't surprise you that there will be more questions. Strap in. Take notes. There are a lot of details that are easy to miss unless you're like me and rewatch like mad. My only advice for this season is this: Pay close attention to the way things are phrased because some people will tell half truths, some will tell confusing truths, some will state things plain as day and some will lie... but, as my favorite Star Trek DS9 episode put it, they're all true, especially the lies.

rakka

Petra: "So you're telling me there's less competition?"

Lichmourne

The scene where Rem is eaten by Gluttony, you can see some frames of her life with Subaru from the spinnoff story "Sloth IF" where Rem accepts Subarus offer to run away with him. Every year on Subarus birthday, the author writes a different "IF" story that shows what would have happened if Subaru made a different choice at different pivotal points in the story. Each "IF" story is based off the different sins and Sloth is the only happy one.

mohal

I read the novels in Japanese, so I can say yes you're right, but also because Subaru at that point simply told everyone that she's a part of the Roswaal mansion. There are so many mistranslations that either completely change a meaning or ruin certain sentences, it's really unfortunate. "Remember?" is the worst translation still for the context here. Sometimes translators just don't seem to care..

Thamor

Watch the openings when they happen, there are like 3 times a opening will happen.

Gabriel Pires

When Lay asked Rem who she was, all I could think about was "DON'T ANSWER, DON'T ANSWER!!!!!"

Alonso Rueda

Don't worry there might be a lot of sad moments coming along the way But at the Last few episodes of season two it will warm your heart and make you happy. Tapai nagatsuki didn't write this story to be sad. He wrote it to be hopeful that even no matter how many times you fail, you will always get back up and never give up

NitexKnight

On episode length: Re:Zero has always had slightly longer than usual episodes from what I remember, even season 1 non-director's cut. They even forego the intro sometimes. I think it's to fit as much in as possible because the story really is expansive.

Domenick Mascilli

Not sure if it's true but I remember reading that they even paid the TV channel it aired on to show fewer commercials during its airing to get more run time.

And s2 begins, get your tea ready!

DefinitlyNotHana

Crush was always my favourite candidate for the throne. The way she remained her honest and rational way of thinking and analyzing the bigger picture, just made it all the more of a reason to be the best candidate.

Dorcusss

This "Rem" person must've been really important to so many characters. I hope she regains her existence or something.

Daniel Lubo

If you are talking about the fight with White Whale, then he told them to don't listen or simpler to close the ears before saying about return.

FraaD

Who is you talking about Luke ? Rem ? Who's Rem ? you confused other anime character again ?

Dethrox

Rem was/is literally sleeping.. and he almost whispered it so i doubt anyone heared it at all.. :D

Dethrox

omg.. im not ready for ''that'' episode again.. that will always make me cry lmao..

Katerflori

Welcome to Season 2! This is gonna be a wiiild ride. I'm so excited :D

FullHeart

It's really weird they decided to add her in this season and pretend she was there all along; just feels so forced for the drama. And the author gave her the exact same design as one of the other characters like how lazy can you be?

Anonymous

Fun fact, the reason why the episodes are longer is because they bought out the netwrk ad slots that were supposed to play around the episode so that they could give the episodes extra runtime.

slipstride

i think the best part of this show is how amazing the subtle things are like at the very end when emilia is talking to subaru and the light slowly returns to his eyes like its so subtle that its easy to miss but it mkaes the scene so much more impactful if you notice how much of a impact her words have on him

Manie Gudak

And so we embark on the season 2 journey. Get ready Luke, you're gonna cry, shout in anger, celebrate at every victory, but be ready to an even better show than S1. As for why the episodes are so long, the studio actually bought all the ad time that would play between the episode so they could fit more plot on each episode, as well most of the episodes straight up dont play the opening and ending credits

Eliana

Translator had just too many tears in their eyes to do it right in this scene

Eliana

NGL even tho it'd be painful, I wish there was a Re:Zero S1 cut without Rem just to mess us up

draggo

I love Crusch. Even on my second watch I was crying a little this whole episode... wiped my tears, then Emilia gave her little speech and I cried more lol.

Adrian Muñoz

This will be my first time watching the season 2 again after its airing. I'm so excited!

josh

Just so you know, so episodes are longer because the director convinced the studio to cut into the ad time to show more episode so he wouldn't have to compromise on the episode content. One episode later was so long it only allowed for just 30 seconds of ad time. Imagine how much of a battle that was to get approved.

Arctic

wait...so was the cart checkpoint a directing choice so they wouldnt have to show the multiple suicides or something?

js

@Eliana And then a streaming platform would show you that instead if you've seen the "Who is Rem?" part in either director's cut or first episode of S2 on the same platform.

LordDanzo

I believe in the coma strat. Rem got this.

Pete Bickmore

Just for funsies because those who watched when it aired will remember. But it’s something that can be explained further down the line. After episode 1 - Times opening played: 0 Times ending played: 0

Emilis2023

Yeah no consequences everything's all fun and games until you accidently override your save file.

cl

I thought Crush got her hand cut off ?

Ledish

Rem instantly started attending to the cutoff point, and Felix is the best healer in the country. Since we don't really see the details, I assume Felix managed to re-attach it somehow?

Pilligrim Ilyas

Man, this season is the reason why Re: Zero got stuck in my heart forever. And so much so that I started reading books. And God golly somehow it becomes even better! I have no idea how it manages to this. Staright up masterpiece

StrykerEvol

Oh right. People always forget about the tedious work behind the scenes. Not wanting to continue with the directors cut, is absolutely understandable with that in mind.

Silver

Oh yeah. I remember this. They really went all out trying to get as much runtime as possible. GOATed frfr

Dominique

wait, where's the double episode?

Frentzy

1st season was Rem's season, Now it's time for best girl. Lez go.

merlinmarijn

There are 2 story tropes i truly hate, 1: ally gets turned against their allies (forcefully), 2: memory wipes (especially of people). The story is good the way its done is good. but man i personally feel pain in my body when these get used, Its the same people have with gore where they don't hate the concept but just cant stand it cause it just hurts physically to watch it. and man this episode again 100% made me feel that way, i love it but hate it.

Lu C

Might be, but I still find it dangerous. We don't know much about this world he is in. Nonhumans could have exponentially better hearing. Plus to me seems that we have an unreliable narrator.

Max

I’ve never seen season 2! So I’m gonna watch it for the first time through your reactions! Let’s see how this goes 😁

Daniel Golas

Soooo how much emotional damage do we inflict in season 2? Yes.

Scott Clayton

Best voice actor in history right there! That crying scene gets me every time and there is more examples to come

Kieran O’Neil

Rem is just like Levi and Gojo. By that i mean the way they can’t been in the story the entire time otherwise it could never develop the way it was meant to.

Ryan DesVoigne

Re:Zero Season 1 was always one of my favorite anime, But Season 2 catapulted it straight up to number 1 for me. It's my all time favorite anime, and I'm so glad you get to watch it... But I am sorry in advance, you will go through hell.

Lucas Gianini

Haven't gotten this far in the novels yet, but here's my understanding of it: It's more that the rule isn't that Subaru can't say stuff that's kind of sus, it's more that when he says stuff that doesn't directly tie it to the power in a way that's obvious enough, people just don't take him seriously in that way, so it doesn't trigger the "curse" part of it.

Lucas Gianini

Yep, either Felis reattached the arm or managed to regrow it with magic. Rem was able to save her from bleeding to death, I assume, when she starting healing her.

smth positive_

They also didn’t have studio nexus on board that animated 10 episodes for season 1 and lots of staff left to create studio bind but as of now white fox seems to have recovered since they’re confident enough to take on 2 3 cour anime around the same time. They’re one of the few studios that actually have an animator boot camp to teach new animators

mania man

motto to love ru have some good sus op its to love ru op 1 there is a diference motto to love ru is like sesone 2 and to love ru is sesone 1

Mr. Dog

Right before Rem got eaten by Gluttony we got to see a still frame from the scene that was the poster of Tappei's side story of Rem IF.
