I mean as far as things goes this timeline is really and i mean REALLY good for Subaru and the Emilia camp He has both Elsa and Reinhard on speed dial who can deal and solve any problems he has full cooperation of Roswaal and his sources, his camp is so good that he managed to kill Archbishop of Greed and captured the Archbishop of Wrath themselves. In terms of winning the election and gaining what he wants the Dragon's blood to heal Rem, to unthaw the Elves in the forest. and make Emilia the ruler This route really has it all. Everyone is very unhappy that's true but everyone has what they want and more importantly everyone is alive. This route is really really good and it's the best possible route for winning the election making Emilia the ruler and to gain the dragon's blood. Like just think about it, how is not having Reinhard the most op character in the story in direct speed dial who can help and assist with everything and is helping you and the Camp youre in to win the election, not the best possible loop out there for the goal to get the Dragon's blood.

@@melancholicthinker9291 I like the results but i dont think living 100 000 000 lives is worth it even for subaru. If we assume he was alive for around 4 minutes on average for each life ( random guess based on how long he lived each life in the story ) then subaru has been alive 277 777 years and he isnt even that far yet.

So long as there is hope, there is a possibility. So long as there is a possibility, people can be saved." He sharpened his resolve and will do what he can to keep those close to him safe and sound. In this route Subaru will do all he can to try and live a life with little to no regrets, and to save those people he cares about and in that case even if it means dying millions of times over. It was worth it to him in the end. The results speak for themselves, and the fruits of his labors will be rewarded as everyone gets what they want and eventually everyone will be saved but for now they have life.

"Why must love always fade" refers to Echidna's own fleeting satisfaction whenever she fulfills a desire. In this case, she was talking about Subaru's RBD ability.

[@SeaTactics]

I forgot what I originally typed before Kadokawa/Crosswarp took down this video, but I do want to say that Echidna is a beautifully written character that has so many interesting layers and mysteries. I've always said that ReZero is one great big mystery series, and I think having a character as mysterious as Echidna totally fits this show and I think, surprisingly enough we haven't gotten to a point where we can fully appreciate this character. Of course, that's ridiculous to say on the outside looking in, she's got tons of memes, figures, merchandise, she's the talk of the town and everyone loves her in the series no matter what method you chose to consume it. But I do think we've still got plenty of hidden doors left to open with Echidna and naturally because of those answers still left hidden the story hasn't gotten to a point where we can fully appreciate her character from an objective sense or point of view. That's just my two cents on her, but I love Echinda and I think her writing quantifies a lot of ReZero's good qualities and even quirky or somewhat abrasive qualities of ReZero into one single character. Mitch, you should do video about what's under Pandora's shirt.

[@mobiusboi1801]

She'll be brought up later in the story. Thankfully

[@chunkmcbeefnob717]

Echidna is definitely one of my favorite characters in the series, most especially in the WN, because just as you're thinking you might understand something about her, some other dimension is shown that proves you don't know anything at all. And I believe that's ultimately the point. She's fundamentally contradictory and incomprehensible. A witch whose foresight, knowledge, and capacity for manipulation are so vast that you can never be sure if she's being real with you, what her motives are, if she's anticipated what is happening, if everything is just a part of her plan, if there's a long con at all, or even if she's real. The more you learn, you more obfuscated it all becomes, until she's more myth than person, like some humanized representation of a Greek or Norse god. Or an ancient alien entity beyond any human understanding. And even she doesn't appear to know the answers to that.

@@tamayoki7537 Did you just assume my feelings with all disrespect I do believe that is a violation of my right to freedom. Honestly how could anyone be so insensitive towards someone. I am the Sin Arc Bishops of Greed "Regulus Corneas".The most indisputably asserted, an existence without any wavering aspects! It’s supposed to be like that, so why do I have to go through this?! Don’t mess around, this is no joke. Each and every one of them, what’s wrong with them that they accept such nonsensical absurdities as if they are a matter of course. That man, that woman, and that knight too, just because I showed a little mercy are getting too ahead of themselves, if I had been serious from the beginning then I could have had torn them apart in bits and pieces, but aren’t they misunderstanding their own power? That you can shamelessly make misunderstandings, that are from my point of view, hilariously wrong, is why I hate getting involved with others! Obnoxious, annoying, irritating, infuriating, vexing, dirty, unsightly scum. I’ve always always been doing well, for years, decades, centuries, this way for all that time, I have been faithfully serving as a Sin Archbishop more than anyone. When I was first chosen as a sin archbishop and received this witch factor, I killed them all, the father who despite his poor earnings was plagued with bad drinking habits, the mother who prattled on endlessly complaining day and night, and the greedy brothers who used to ravenously eye the portion that rightfully belonged to me, were all killed by me, the villagers who looked at me like I’m an idiot too, the people of the town who pushed me and my house into that hopeless village too, the inept heads of the country who carelessly abandoned the village and the town to that state in the first place too, I tore them all apart into bits and pieces, and when everything was gone I finally noticed a way I could live! I don’t need anything. Everything is just annoying. I am already satisfied. It’s not like I didn’t have it, I just didn’t need it. Unlike the intrusive scum, I’ve never needed anything. Despite that, giving me something, doesn’t that mean that from outside, from your point of view, that you looked at me and thought that I was a pitiful lacking existence. Everyone who wants to impose unneeded things on me should be killed, so only those who will leave the satisfied me alone should be allowed into this world. No matter who, just talking about their selfish nonsense, those shits. Who has the right to pity me. Who has the right to pity me and drive me to despair. As if I would let them. I don’t need anything and neither did I ask for anything. A father who despite his poor earnings was plagued with bad drinking habits and yet still occasionally buys gifts for me is scum better off dead. A mother who prattled on endlessly complaining day and night while saying obvious things like “apologies I’ve troubled you” is scum better off dead. The greedy brothers who despite ravenously eyeing the portion that rightfully belonged to me used to divide my part of their bun when my food got spilled are scum better off dead. Stop you shits, being arbitrarily kind towards me. Being kind, it must mean that you think I’m low, that you’re looking down on me. Someone who looks the goddamn down on others, especially someone who looks down family, It’s natural that they would be hated. It’s natural that they’re dead. It’s not my fault. I’ve done nothing wrong. It’s your fault, you you pitypitypity me, treat me like I’m pathetic, and leave me all alone. Have a taste of what it’s like to be made to feel like the most worthless person in the world. Surrounding me should only be those who do not pity me. Those who do pity me should disappear from the world. I hear laughter. You’re looking at me, aren’t you. You looked at me and laughed, didn’t you. What’s so laughable about me. What did you see in me that made you laugh. All of them laughing and laughing. A bunch of powerless scum who are only good at running their mouths. Why does my heart have to break so much because of them. Don’t stand in my way don’t obstruct me don’t pity me I’m not the I’m not the pitiable one, it’s you helpless and ignorant but still with “Greed”! You have to crawl throughout your entire life just to satisfy your incomplete selves, you’re the pitiable greed! I’m different I’m not like that I don’t want anything. The desire less me is better than your incomplete selves. Don’t pity me. The truth is that you’re jealous of me, envious of me, you admire me and because you can’t reach me you’re just running your mouth off. That’s right that must be right it’s obviously right. Wait, wait, just wait. Just stop. Don’t look at me don’t say my name don’t talk about me. Good or bad, just stop it, don’t pay attention to me, ignore me and leave me alone. Even though a complete existence has a heart that should not be able to be trampled on how come the likes of you are so insistent on interacting with me. I cannot comprehend it in the slightest. Both you and I are different people. Even thinking of getting a return by taking risks, no matter how you think about it, could never be reasonable would always be a mistake. You’re sick in the head. Calm down and think about it and you should be able to understand. All humans except me are just floating in a fever. Asking of others, that very fact that it is understandable is meaningless, useless and irresponsible should be easy to understand. It is all a fantasy of yours which you call it love love is friendship and trust what foolish idiocy reproductive activities themselves are the utmost disgusting acts. I don’t understand what it means. For what are you doing this. Whether it’s for being a mother or a child, although it makes a family, even if it is decorated with such words, it will be different from myself, whether that thing dies out or not, what does that have to do with me. If they continue to live when I die, I’ll be over. If they are dead while I live would only mean my continuation. Love and affection only makes it so that people cannot be independent. A person is independent in the first place. Out of concern for those who operate under such delusions, to be looked down by others is foolish and so I found companionship by gathering well looking women, and in order to not be betrayed I ask for only virgins, what more do you want of me. Don’t skip such a selfish act. Infringing on me to this extent, but you still ask whether you can infringe upon me even more? To think you’ve hit this point! To think your thoughts could be so twisted! Inflicting all this upon me, what more could you even ask of me. Just what do I have to do to not be pitied. The most pitiful person in the world, or whatever! There is no way anything said by that a lady plagued with such vulgar “Greed” who wants to to connect with one she li~kes is justified!

However, in my infinite humility, understanding, and consideration I would never find myself in such a situation to begin with. In fact, I find it incredibly amusing that anyone would be so weak willed to surrender to such a superfluous fate. Fortunately, I am incredibly generous and giving. Imagine I were in this so called witch's position for instance - I would easily and effortlessly guide any who were to seek me to an undisputed victory. Yet in the incredible, incomprehensible, incomparable ignorance displayed by one too many I am forced to display my humility time and time again. Laughable really, but such is the fate of one as considerate and kind as I. To imagine someone so unsatisfied is almost sad really. Completely pathetic and deplorable.

The problem is that Subaru became dependent of Echidna.

But seeing how skilled she is in manipulating people... it would have been hard to say the least... no... impossible, having a voice in your mind that always tells you what to do even if you don't want to do that would be awful...

[@danieldelagarzaarreguin4833]

I'm 3 years late lol. Anyway, the implication is that she's very smart and can guarantee a good enough outcome that is very hard to resist. If he made the deal it was likely thinking her knowledge would also be a big asset, not just the emotional support. Even if he was reluctant to listen, when faced with a big challenge he might think "What's the harm in trying what Echidna recommends just once? I can always just retry if it doesn't work" It's likely Echidna would lead to good enough outcomes much faster and with less effort, but the pay off would only benefit her and not Subaru in the end. When Subaru tries his own thing he would likely fail much more leading him to depend on Echidna, but It's a slippery slope. She can likely guarantee a good enough result and lead to completing the main objective much easier. However, Echidna does not consider how others feel and uses them as tools. It would be an empty victory because Subaru and everyone him them would be miserable.

@@danieldelagarzaarreguin4833 Wayyy to late lol I basically abandoned Re:Zero in these past three years, picked up drawing and a bunch of other stuff, yikes, life changed a lot. Anyways, as far as the comment goes… The only possible way of getting around Echidna’s bs would be adding a bunch of stipulations in the contract. Things that would leave no way for her to manipulate Subaru like, “You must always make clear all of your intentions when talking with me or anyone else, no lies by omission allowed.” Or “You must lead me to the best possible ending for ALL of us, me and my camp, from a normal person’s perspective”, ‘lead me to the best end with the fewer number of deaths possible’ or maybe even (if you wanna keep up the whole ‘everything of yours will be mine and everything mine will be yours’) “You will share EVERYTHING of yours with me, dreams, expectations etc… leaving nothing aside and I will do the same, we cannot and will not lie to each other etc etc…” Even then you would be walking on thin ice, she could make a clone do her bidding to get around it or smth (but she’s legitimately in love with Subaru and being free would already be payment enough so I doubt she would try that anyways) Of course, the only way Subaru would even try that would be if he was sound of mind which in arc 4 only happens by the end when, in his mind, she’s already an irredeemable figure. And, that’s the whole point isn’t it? Subaru’s a bit of hypocrite, he’s willing to forgive murder and even torture as long as the victim is himself but, as soon as the victim is someone else, the culprit stops being a person in his eyes and automatically becomes a monster. Or rather, I guess it would be better to say that he’s young. He’s young and bright eyed despite what he has gone trough. He always deals wither with innocent, righteous people or with people so evil they might as well be caricatures, it’s almost as if there was no grey area for him and everyone who is always falls to the extremes, your morals are either white and deserving of forgiveness and all the good in the world or black and you’re a monster (even Roswaal which seems the exception to this rule has started to grow on him, I think Tappei intends to redeem him somehow and for the other… yeah…) Anyways I’ve blabbered enough, I guess the point is, Subaru Natsuki has no place in his life for grey morality, even if he truly understood Echidna’s usefulness and good intentions (because, very very deep down she does have them) he would’ve rejected her anyways. She’s incapable of ‘fully’ becoming ‘good’ (maybe it was her nature, maybe the authority twisted her beyond belief who knows?) and as such, she won’t be forgiven.

[@berilsevvalbekret772]

Dude I LOVE you. But one thing I always thought missing in this story was Echidna's reaction to modern world. I wish we got that. She would be in LOVE with the modern technology medicine etc. Can you all imagine her reaction to compurers... I would have loved to see that. Anyway thank you for doing this really really appreciated.

[@statesminds]

Going back through these after season 3 news. This one came so close to coming true. Funnily enough Echidna’s trial of showing the possibility of the world continuing after Subaru’s death is one reason he didn’t take her hand. This is truly a scary route.

[@Furugeru]

It's crazy how this route is literally what would've happened if subaru took what his mother said to him at face value. Subaru going down the greed route would've brought old subaru back; the one who waited for the days to go by, doing the same thing over and over again, unmotivated. In my opinion, this is the saddest IF.

[@TheAwsomeManny]

I think the reason Subaru abuses Return by death so casually in this If compared to others is because in the novel version it explains that most of Subaru’s deaths at first were to either the rabbits or mabeasts if he wasn’t eaten alive then the mabeasts at the mansion would literally rip him apart he even used the great rabbit to get rid of Elsa in some loops. He actually solved it around his 500th loop but by that point he already had so many brutal deaths he didn’t care anymore and in fact he actually chose to use return by death even though he already saved the sanctuary and the mansion so he could get a better outcome. In pride if he mostly got one shotted by Reinhard so it wasn’t really brutal and it was roughly the same with Halibel in wrath if

[@sprtsfanatic1]

So glad to see that this route got re uploaded. Still can’t believe that you got such “a generous volunteer” to voice Subaru. After learning more about Emilia and Geuse’s past, it makes those two scenes with Emilia and especially Beatrice, heartbreaking. Those last two lines at the end are glorious and enthralling

I LOVE ECHIDNA'S VOICE ! PLEASE SPEAK MORE ! Clearly, death as a motivation for change was Subaru's strengh and main tool for his redemption story/betterment. Losing/corrupting it results in giant troubles.

I like this re upload better. It's kind of strange that Subaru considering himself expendable even before he revisited the tea party makes his earlier mindset more susceptible to Echidna's offer. Before the pep talk from the other witches, his plan was similar to hers, minus the contract and access to her knowledge she offers.
