That Scared Me... Re:Zero Season 2 Episode 8 Review/Analysis

Re:Zero belongs in the horror genre. That rabbit scene was absolutely terrifying. Even though I read the novels and knew it was coming, this episode was so well-directed that it still managed to scare me.
Last Episode: • Otto's Confession ❤️ R...
Next Episode: • I love Witches! Re:Zer...
Here's my thoughts on Re:Zero Season 2 Episode 8, or "Re:Zero Episode 33".
This was my favorite episode so far this season, topping even Episode 4. The adaptation was perfect and White Fox has proven once again that Re:Zero is a contender for Anime Of The Year. In this episode, Garfiel uses his beast transformation to attack Subaru, Otto, Patrasche, and Ram. Subaru survives, and wakes up a while later to find the Sanctuary empty, and covered in snow. He then runs into a cute rabbit, which turns out to be a vicious demon beast. After using Return by Death, he meets with Echidna again and speaks openly about his Return By Death ability for the first time ever.

@dude bro If you want real developments you're not going to get even into the real plot in season 2. Infact, I don't think season 3 will even touch the real plot, as much as allude to it existing. Rezero is a super super super long series. The author estimates it to go for 11 arcs total, season 1 is arcs 1-3, season 2 is only arc4. And all of it is effectively world building still.

One of the three greatest mysteries in re:zero: how Tappei can even imagine such terrifying ways to make Subaru suffer and die. But the Rabbit scene was absolutely... *shivers* . White Fox really animated this scene to justice and the end of the ep. was quite a beatiful shock as well. After reading the web novel so far, there've been too many differences, though I really like it thus far. This was a great review for a truly horrifying, yet beautiful episode!

[@risnuirviandi4161]

@@raysin.st.5778 okay you want the spoiler heh? I will give you, prepare yourself okay? ... So the way Echidna act was just for making Subaru to be her Apostle. The Sanctuary initially made by Echidna based on her 'Curiosity' in the matter of Eternal Life but that is not important right now. What I want to say is, all the expression that came from Echidna was Fake. In the novel Echidna said that she neither understand what 'Emotion' is nor she can feel it, resulting in her void and Artificial emotion, and Subaru fell for it until now. And Beatrice isn't Spirit for Roswaal. Beatrice made by Echidna, and Puck too, made by Echidna. And this is a big spoiler : Roswaal also has the Gospel and the way he act until NOW was just following the instruction in the Gospel. And also, Roswaal had acquired the method to live Eternal by using his descendant as his vessel. So initially Roswaal have been live at the same time as Echidna and even regard Echidna as his "Teacher", so from 400 years ago until now, it's the same Roswaal person.
