Return by Death causes the world to rebuild itself. In Arc 6 The Hall of Memories, all of Subaru's deaths were recorded in the Library

The world resets, leaving no room for timeline divergence. Because, everytime subaru dies, his soul passes through the od Laguna and sends him back to the world with memories intact.

Unlike pride, sloth has a LOT of regrets. Where the biggest being about leaving everyone to die in his absence. Pride was happy with his life and embraced death with pleasure. Meanwhile sloth might just be grieving about how guilty he feels about leaving his friends to die. So, sloth would reset back to arc 3

[@williammyers4997]

If I remember how his ability works correctly, him getting reset doesn’t actually change anything as he’s not so much “going back in time”, as he’s “going sideways in time”. Basically when he dies his memories are given to another version of himself in another timeline slightly earlier in their own personal timeline/series of events than the version that died, so anything that happens doesn’t get changed or “reset” by his death and the world continues on without him. It’s just that from his perspective it seems like he’s going back in time.

[@mikeweimer4783]

This is only speculation ad Echidna herself says there’s no way to truly tell if that’s the case or not, and as a result, she insists it’s more productive to assume that he’s reverting time properly. But TL;DR we don’t know for sure and I hope that’s not the case overall

Well you can go in 3 directions. You could watch the anime, read the web novel, or read the light novel. The main story is pretty simple to follow. What he was mentioning by "routes" are alternate timelines written by the author as just fun side projects. The actual main story is one timeline. There are good translations of the webnovel (original release by creator) on a website called witch cult translations.

[@CheezeOfWheel]

@@antagonisticalex401 The webnovel and light novel are very similar, but with slight changes. The web novel is the one they create by themselves and the light novel is a sort of edited version that is actually published. The web novel is free and you have to pay for the light novel. On top of that, the web novel is fan translated while the light novel has an actual translation team.

[@Shidozu-cu2em]

​@@antagonisticalex401 I recommend watching the anime first. Start from s1, to s2, then wait for s3 to be released this October. After that, you can continue reading starting from Arc 7, which is volume 26 of the light novel. If you caught up with the latest volume of the light novel, then you can continue with the web novel, you can start at a chapter after the corresponding chapter on the lastest volume you read. Re Zero novels are still ongoing at the moment, so you can expect it to be updated every few months or so. The difference between LN (light novel) and WN (web novel) is that the WN is the draft, more advanced, version of the LN, while LN is the official one. WN serves as a basis, or the blueprint of what the author will write on the LN, meaning it is much further down the story than LN. It is essentially the unfinal, scratch, draft version of the story. Due to being a draft, it can be found online and read for free. But don't get me wrong, despite being a draft, it is still a very good read with it sometimes being better than the LN. LN on the other hand, is the official, final, and refined version of the WN. It is the one that is sold through books and officially published via volumes. Because it is licensed, it is for sale and you need real money to buy a physical or e-book version of it. You can still read it through pirated websites though. If you have time, you can read both LN and WN because there are some details found on WN that is cut on LN or vice versa. You can also start reading the LN from volume 1, as the anime cuts parts of the original text. Additionally, you can also read extra side stories such as Re Zero EX LN volumes to immerse yourself in the re zero world building and lore, and explore IF stories WN discussed in this video. Overall, I highly recommend you search the internet for more guides on this series. Re Zero is still one of my top favorite anime/novel throughout my years of watching and reading different series wow. The novel right now is peak fiction and I hope you enjoy this!
