I would argue that it is also an error (not really, but I'm just trolling around) that you forgot to mention that Reinhard is LITERALLY a poor excuse of a plot device! Why? Because he rarely ever gets involved and when he does... it's amost always "off screen" and then... "magic happens!" Come on now... even Nasu did it better with Zashu-man! At the very least, "Zashu-man" over there, WORKED HIS ASS OFF for his power, instead of being given all of it "just because he exists"... Yeah, I get it... opinions on the web and what not, but still, I believe Reinhard is a poor "ef" of an atempt from Tappei's part, to pull a Fate's "Gilgamesh"!

Reinhardt, from what I remember, destroyed the whole ReZero world with one swing of the sword and recreated it entirely. This happened in another timeline but this truly shows what he is capable of. The author also stated that if Reinhardt would fight the sun, he would win, so it proves that he is at least planetary. Also considering the fact that sword saints can casually slice through reality with mere chopsticks and Reinhardt gaining almost any power he wants (along with unlimited revivals), he is undoubtedly the pinnacle of ReZero power scaling.

[@mariofann9000]

A few misconceptions there: He didn't destroy the world, in that alternate timeline, Puck was going to freeze the world, but Reinhard defeated him stopping the frozen wasteland Puck had created, metaphorically "recreating the world" by removing Puck's expanding blizzard. It pretty obvious in context, but a lot of powerscalers ignore it in favor of saying he literally destroyed and recreated the world. (Which wouldn't make sense, if he could do that, he could just recreate the world without the witchcult, except maybe Pandora due to her abilities) The sun statement is related to Od Laguna, where Tappei said Reinhard could destroy it, but that the Od Laguna is an entity who's state of being resembles the sun. It is not a literal sun. Even if we assumed the Od Laguna is what keeps the re:zero world together, it would still be moon to small planet level at the highest possible highball due the re:zero world being smaller than our world. Which it most likely isn't as Tappei also stated that Reinhard could destroy the world, but it would take the same time it would take Godzilla to destroy Euroasia. In other words, it wouldn't be a Freeza from Dragonball situation where he can just blow up a planet with one big ki attack, but rather a long time of him slowly chipping it away over time. The same is true for Satella, it is frequently stated Satella was on a rampage when consuming parts of the world with darkness, implying she was rampaging for a while before the 3 heroes defeated her and sealed her away. Reinhard cannot gain any power he wants, he can only get blessings that exists. Example: If you tried to poison Reinhard, he would get a blessing to counteract it, because such a blessing do in fact exists. If you suddenly gained the ability to create anti-matter, he would not get a blessing for it, because a blessing like does not exist. And new ones won't be created just for him. So, if a character, like say, an Esper from To-aru was sent into the Re:Zero world, Reinhard can not get a blessing to become resistant or immune to their abilities, because To-aru type Espers don't naturally exist in the world of Re:Zero. Reinhard cannot cut through space like Reid did with Chopsticks, that is a feat only he can do and Reinhard has not shown the ability to do so (It is not something sword saints can do by default). Another misconception is his first attack immunity and preceding hit immunity blessings. This doesn't make every attack miss no matter what, it simply makes Reinhard move automatically in response to attack, even if he doesn't know it's coming. So if a character is faster than Reinhard or Reinhard has no room to dodge, or the attack applies directly without movement, Reinhard can't do anything. Reinhard greatest feat put him at mountain level or so per-hit, but with his sword Reid, he can launch sword beams similar to Ichigo's getsuga Tenshou, with the added benefit of his sword beams seemingly ignoring durability by disintegrating his opponents. His intuition is so good, he can basically read minds. He can revive endlessly so long as his soul isn't destroyed, he has a spider-sense like precognition, he is near-light to light speed reactions, he learns extremely fast, he is a great teacher, he is highly resistant to most magic, he is immune to poison and curses, he can walk on water, etc. Don't get me wrong, just because he doesn't have a blessing for something, doesn't mean he will lose, Reinhard is still crazy powerful, fast and hard to kill. But people often misunderstand his strength due to powerscalers refusing to actually read the entirety what they're talking about beyond individual statements, which ends up in them missing the context.

[@bartonix447]

its just a little theory of mine that Subaru as a Sage Candidate is meant to collect all witches factor's to challange being called a Witch of Envy and he needs those as a protection aggainst miasma and a way to unlock all "doors" to begin the final challange, but based on his skills its likely he will collect a team of powerfull superhumans to kill something that cannont be killed and I cant wait to see something like that

[@SirChompalot]

I also thought that Subaru would collect all the witches factors due to him seemingly having a high affinity for all the sins. Shown by just his behaviour, altough he has grown, as well as maybe the statement of "being good at seducing witches" and all the witches being intrigued by him.

14:24 also with felix divine protection of water it seeminly gives him pseudo immortality as his body can instantly regenerate from any damage but in exchange he loses physical abilities (basically he can't fight physically)

[@ShadowKoto]

It's not the Divine Protection of Water itself that does that. Ferris didn't instantly start at his current level. He had to learn from Garitch to get there. The talent that Ferris has developed with his water magic, combined with his proficiency in the water affinity from his DP's effects, is how he has "pseudo-immortality".

Wasn't Meili's divine protection "Magic manipulation" or "Mana manipulation"? I think it was stated in arc 6 that she doesn't specifically control witchbeasts, but can serve a similar function to a witchbeast's horn by controlling the mana in the atmosphere or somethig. Kind of like how witchbeasts generally follow higher concentrations of miasma, or in the great rabbit's case; mana.

[@ShadowKoto]

Translation differences. It's because of that damn Kanji that's used in the DP's name which is difficult to infer sometimes. The community doesn't go with that name anymore, it's either Demon Manipulation or Fiend Manipulation nowadays. It was Mama (Capella) who told Meili she could fulfill the same role as a Witchbeast's horn. We don't know more than that.

@@shingeitowa4056 No, it's still wrong to say that it's part of Cor Leonis, Subaru can't spread that level of power to anyone else without the Pleiades Battalion's war cries recreating Magical Shroud Excitation and applying an effect reminiscent of yang magic to him that he then proceeds to share to everyone else. The Pleiades Battalion is creating an external power that strengthens Subaru, and he shares the overflow he receives via his Authority, Cor Leonis. It doesn't mean that his Authority has been upgraded, it's just a mechanic that was created to fit the situation and he won't be able to use it again without the Pleiades Battalion. If Subaru gets strengthened through some other means in the story later on, and he shares that power to his allies, it's not an upgrade to Cor Leonis, it's simply a benefit he's receiving and redistributing to his allies through his unchanged Authority. You have misunderstood the explanation provided in Chapter 98 and Chapter 99 of Arc 7, which was also adjusted in the light novel to clarify more succinctly the functionality of Subaru's buffs that I am attempting to get across.
