Re:Zero is one of my favorite animes of all time so watching you guys also get so much "enjoyment", if that's what we want to call it, out of it was great. I've already known this for a long time from watching your reactions to AoT, Arcane, and many other shows, but you two are by far the best reactors on YouTube. Thank you so much for picking up Re:Zero and thanks for putting so much attention and love into your reactions.

Said something on YT similar so I’ll summarize here, these 52 weeks of episodes have helped a lot this past year, Re:Zero is my favorite piece of media, and the life you guys gave to the show was incredible to watch, thank you so much for loving the series all this time, it’s really helped me personally. Wishing you a promising future, stay safe, and thank you.

That works too, but it is still legitimate Re:Zero content they could decide to watch that could hype them for season 3. Myself, I think I'd like to see them react and talk about what are coming for S3, preferably after what we get during anime japan.

In the novel, Betty even tells him right after that "It's not my place to reprimand you, it's your descendents'". I've always wished they kept this line, because it makes it extra clear that he basically murdered his descendents one after another. Too many people didn't pick up on it.

I would actually prefer it if they don't watch the trailer. I don't know, just feels more appropriate given they like to go in blind. The trailer does reveal the whole setup for the next arc.

Agree. There's no competition, not even close.

Love your reactions! Can't wait for season 3 which is gonna have more info on Anime Japan 2024. I really recommend watching the other Re: Zero content like the chibi ones since they have included lots of lore and worldbuilding the anime didn't have.

Thanks for reacting to the show. Yall were by far my favorite reactors to the show. Most people actually hate watched a considerable bit and didn't even attempt to empathize with characters😭can't wait to see if you guys will react to the trailers or RZ Break Time

It's funny that at first, I assumed Roswaal learned how to construct human vessels with magic that resonated with his soul. Then at some point, I realized how stupid I was. You don't need magic for that.

So.. S3 trailer, movies then Re:Zero shorts.. Then S3 after a bit of waiting, as well as the Isekai Quartet crossover, given that you have watched the other shows in it..
I do also tend to recommend Echidnut's video on "How Re:Zero Season 2 REALLY Ends", since we do have massive cuts in the end of S2 and the main cliffhanger is endgame material rather than S3. Reading the last chapter would also work just as fine, or stay anime only and skip the cliffhanger.
The details on the contract with Subaru and Beatrice is also cut. There is both pros and cons to it, but we likely will get a bit on that in S3.
Edit: we will likely get more info on S3, and likely a new trailer maybe, on anime japan within the week (24th I think)

That’s it guys thank you for going on this journey together with us. This is my 2nd favorite anime right after AOT
Do not worry tho we are only 4 days away from a big announcement at anime Japan where we get a new trailer and finally some info about the staff and release date hopefully
With Re:Zero news how would you like to be kept in the loop?
Oh poor Anna. Hopefully with season 3 we’ll will get figures of more characters than Rem& Ram and Emilia. The running joke is in the fan base that there’s no figures of even Subaru bc Satella buys all of them ☠️
I’m here to ruin a wholesome moment Emilia thinks kissing makes you pregnant what does her kissing a dead Subaru in episode 11 f this season mean then?
Another interesting detail when Betty was reflected in Roswaals eye it was a close up of his right eye and they actually showed it as blue like it was back then. Now his right eye he eye actually is yellow
You also are correct in your conversation about Echidna Ben. In the light novel words are used very purposefully so the trial and younger echidna hector knew were describing her as “cute” while Betty and Roswaal described her as “beautiful” which implies the one they knew was older
Would be great if one of the mods could inform them about the preview that’s already out and if they could check on the 24th bc that’s then the new trailer should be dropping on YouTube as well considering Americas and Japan’s time differences

Anna is right about Roswaal. He took his child each time as a vessel for his soul.
Which was the direct reference to his request to "curse him as an inhumane monster" as he kept killing his own children for 400 years.

The IF stories are straight up cinema. They will break the internet xD
If they come, they will come after S3 has aired, as we're safe from the spoilers by then.
But before that i would love to get the first 3 EX novels adapted as they're canon and i need the Wilhelm/Theressia backstory in my life.

2024-03-20 05:16:45 +0000 UTC
Yes, they are amongst the best and I've been watching reactions to Re:Zero since 2016.
No pseudo comedy or commentary for the sole purpose of talking.
Just raw experience of the media.
Followed up with a great discussion.

First up, thank you for your reactions to my favorite show.
Mandatory message to ask if they would like to react to the S3 trailer or trailers if we get another one this Sunday (march 24) during the expo stage on animejapan. As there will be minimum 6 months before S3 will air, i think it should be fine.
The Re:Zero break time episodes for season 2 are a must watch if you're not a source reader as they add additional context to stuff they could not fit into the main running show.
That being said, if you want to turn them into content for us, which i would love, you have to think about the format a bit as they're only 2 and a half minutes long each. They will def make for great discussion videos.

Rezero is great! I cant wait for season 3 to come out soon. Season 2 in particular really made me love the series. Betty is right there with nanachi from made in abyss for my "must protecc" wholesome cute characters.

It was not an animation mistake or lighting, Echidna's face IS different as confirmed from source material. This was supposed to be a reveal here in the anime (seeing her face). Remember that we did not see pre-graveyard Echinda's face in the Roswaal flashback.

I agree, I think it is fairly intentional that the anime is trying to frame him as more like-able, after he is incredibly hate-able throughout season 2. That or they were just trying to make it a more subtle threat, but subtleness doesn’t translate very well from Japanese to English sometimes. Certain characters just come off completely different in the novels as well, Emilia for example came off as much more sassy in the novels than she did in the anime.

I don’t speak Japanese well enough to know this, but my feeling from watching it is that the adaptation itself didn’t put it across well rather than simply the translation - the framing, the soundtrack, Roswaal’s delivery and Subaru’s reaction don’t bely the menace that I felt when I read it in the web novel. I feel like if the subtitles were accurate to the web novel it would seem almost incongruous to how the anime portrays what Roswaal is saying.

Yours were my favourite Re;Zero reactions, and I’ve watched many. It makes me even more excited for Season 3 thinking about getting to see your reactions alongside it. Thanks again.
Jay Craig
2024-03-20 02:03:51 +0000 UTC
Yeah, there’s a ton of cut content from this arc in the novels, I’m hoping some of it is (and some stuff from S1) touched on in Season 3
ThaDoubleB
2024-03-20 01:48:53 +0000 UTC
Considering the very extended length of the episodes in this season I imagine they were really picking second to second that to put in the episode and that was simply one of the many cuts

From what Ive read, theres gonna be more info about Re:Zero Season 3 revealed on March 24th but the actual realease date is probably gonna be later this year

2024-03-20 01:38:07 +0000 UTC
Clarification because of the faulty CR subs, but on the final episode, what Roswaal speaks to Subaru is a threat: if anyone that Subaru has resolved to protect dies, Roswaal would kill the survivors, and then would be killed by the curse he planted on himself due to the contract-slash-bet with Subaru.

Rem figurines are a pillar of the Japanese economy at this point, so I wouldn’t think it would be an issue.

2024-03-20 01:33:06 +0000 UTC
Yep, grave Echidna looks 10 or more years older than the one Subaru and Emilia see in the Trials

ben pretty much nailed the whole deal with Echidna's looks I THINK? someone can correct me if I'm wrong.
well yall lucked out with this one too since Season 3 should be right around the corner! If you ever wanted to keep in the world, the dub is pretty great imo and you can't go wrong with reading the light novels. Usually, manga for me aren't worth reading after an anime, but so much is cut from light novels that it's always good to read if you love the series.

So I'm not sure why the anime didn't add it but atleast in the novel Emilia does recognize a resemblance and wonders whether the person in the grave is a sibling or something.
