So something that is not explained in this episode is that when Subaru finds the witches(with the exception of echidna) talking so casually to satella he questions about how they could be talking like that when she’s the one who killed them, to which they reply that satella is different from the witch of envy and that there is a dual personality thing going on, they further continue to question him about his lack of knowledge about this topic saying that he should know about it since he is a sage candidate.

What? Why they don't put that in anime? I think its very important!

[@Vierdro]

So this is kinda long but worth reading. This is probably the episode that cuts out some of the most important context from this season. Firstly it gets mentioned in the source material that at one point satella took in an incompatible witch factor which in turn developed another side to herself. An alter ego that the world remembered as the witch of envy. This explains the inconsistency with satella’s personality. Like how she wants to help subaru but also screws him over a lot. This is also why all the witches are on guard and dont take action when she first arrives because they dont know if its satella or envy. Because surprisingly all the witches (except echidna) actually like satella. Also when giving a reason why she is so obsessed with subaru she says the following Satella: “I am in love with you. -Because you gave me light. Because you took me by the hand, and taught me the world outside. Because through nights where in solitude I shivered, you kept by my side with your hands around mine. Because, then being alone, by your kiss you told me I wasn't. There are so many things you've given to me. ...And so, I love you. Because you-you gave me everything.” Now personally I tried to read between the lines and came up with my own theory for what all this means but ill leave it to your interpretation.

[@Andrew_S1]

What is your theory?

[@sorakirisaki5330]

@@Andrew_S1 subaru is the main villan of re zero, he was transported to the re zero wolrd 400 years ago and went down an evil path like as if it was one of the IF stories, he met satella and tried to use her for his own advantage and rizzed her up, but then one day someone killed subaru (maybe flugel the sage or reid or anyone for that matter), satella goes berserk and you know the rest..... except, subaru actually had a fail safe plan, he asked pandora to store his memories with her since who knows what would happen to him if he dies, now coming to present day, we see that satella found subaru and now he's back in this world, and thats the reason he has return by death, coz satella learnt her lesson 400 years ago and doesnt want the same thing to happen again. so now if subaru ever meets pandora, she's gonna restore his memories and he's gonna become the main villan of re zero, the main protagonist was rienhardt all along, the end..... thanks for tuning in to my ted talk (p.s. im not serious about this theory lol, i just wrote it for fun, and made up a wrong theory on purpose knowing that this would never actually be the real plot but it's somewhat cohesive since its meant to distract me from thinking about real theories

[@Vierdro]

@@Andrew_S1 personally my theory takes into account that satella talks about Subaru like she truly knows him. So I think 400 years ago Subaru did exist in the rezero world, was lovers with satella, died somehow, reincarnated back on earth, and now satella thinks it's time for him to come back home and fulfill whatever his destiny is supposed to be.

more of like, roswaal noticed in season 1 that the future does not follow the Tome of wisdom (book). Once verified that subaru is the one that messing with the timeline of events, he takes initiative in season 2 to perfect subaru as a being who can only save 1 person and no one else atleast what I thought after watching the show.

[@haseothepkker]

13:05 "Is Subaru more part of this world then we realize?" Season 1 does actually hint at this. Buckle up this shit is about to get wild. There's a bit of a secret easter egg in season 1 that was noticed by some hardcore re:zero fans that study the anime frame by frame. Back in arc 2 when Ram was teaching Subaru how to read and write in their language, Subaru wrote on his paper "Natsuki Subaru on the scene!" in Japanese. You can see this in the anime. Ram even notices and calls them scribbles because she obviously can't read Japanese. But basically this "on the scene!" is another eccentricity attributed to Subaru being his nerdy eccentric self. Later in arc 3 when Subaru and Rem are at the base of the Flugel tree before the whale fight Subaru mentions that someone carved something into the tree. The anime briefly shows a glimpse of this carving, in Japanese it reads "Flugel on the scene!", in exactly the same fashion Subaru scribbled in his notes back in arc 2. Now here's the thing about the word Flugel, it's German for Wings. This doesn't mean much by itself but there's a short side story that takes place in the 2 month time skip that occurred between arc 2 and arc 3, basically the days of Subaru being the mansions butler before Felix was contacted by Emilia to heal his gate. Many anime watchers don't know this but there are a lot of cute slice of life side stories that take place during this 2 month time skip. For example the Memory Snow OVA where they made ice sculptures is an adaption of one of those short stories. One of these short stories is called "My Fair Bad Lady" and without spoiling anything it includes Subaru crossdressing. Turns out Subaru is a incredibly good at crossdressing, the anime hints this when back in the first loop of arc 2 the twins commented that some of the girls clothing would fit Subaru. Anyway, this crossdressing funnily enough is actually important. While Subaru was crossdressing for the occasion he had to have an alias, so he chose Natsumi Schwartz, with Schwartz being German for Black. What this means is that when Subaru chooses an alias cover name, he likes to use German words. Combine all this information and there's this crazy implication that Subaru is the one who planted the Flugel tree under the alias Flugel and carved into it "Flugel on the scene!". Presumably planting the tree specifically for the Whale fight. Then here you have Satella claiming Subaru saved her and gave her everything, very clearly implying a past connection between them. Basically you're asking the right question.

There needs to be more Natsumi Schwartz art

[@BHWu2]

And this is why I believe Otto is best boi and best girl. All the other best girl candidates have empathetic backstories and motivations (and don’t get me wrong, I love them), but they generally make their issues Subaru’s issues or alternatively try to idolize him in some way. Otto is the only one who doesn’t slavishly put Subaru on a pedestal but is instead willing to call him out on his shit, to his face, without hesitation or sugarcoating. And he does this from a place of genuine care for Subaru. Unironically, Otto and Subaru is relationship goals.

[@sorakirisaki5330]

So this was for some reason not included in the anime but in the novels during the Satella scene, Satella said this to Subaru: "I... love you. Because you... gave me light. Because you took my hand, and you taught me about the world outside. Because... when I trembled on lonely nights, you never stopped holding my hand. Because when i felt lonely, you kissed me and said that i wasn't alone. You gave me so many things... That's why I love you. Because you... you gave me everything."

Fun fact: The "Witch of Envy" and "Satella" are two different personalities. Satella is the kinder personality that we met in Witch Party, and Witch of Envy is that psychotic personality that is deeply obsessed with Subaru.

an important line missed out in the anime, when satella arrives here, the witch on wrath, (the healing blondie) says, ""are you satella or the witch of envy?""also petition for luke to react to the re zero IF stories as well, pride, wrath, sloth and greed theyre absolutly amazing, all must watches fr, emilia and satella both exist at the same time, so it wont make sense if they were the same person you missed out one detail which was implied about three times during the tea party, that is.... the witch FACTORS, pay attention to that pls , also if you think the puzzle pieces are laid out, thats kinda true but the anime does cut out important stuff from the novels so do keep that in mind, we'll be glad to comment that for you over here lol

It’s honestly obvious that Satella isn’t Emilia, Satella kills Emilia in front of Subaru in season 1 so… so clearly separate individuals xD And yes as an anime only, you miss the clue about Satella being different from the witch of Envy, basically you got two personalities with Satella. I wish the anime explained that a bit more but it’s ok

[@diwigaming2088]

​@@xxGachaholicplease explain everything about this satella or wich of envy to me. Why does she love subaru

[@xxGachaholic]

@@diwigaming2088 All I know is, the witch of Envy is a separate personality from Satella, but Satella is the witch of Envy. I personally believe she showed up in episode 9 and 10 because Subaru invoked her too much while talking to Echidna. He was only able to tell Echidna about return by death because they were in the castle of dreams. When Subaru just mentioned returning to Emilia, Satella took Emilia out. When Subaru vented his ability to Echidna, she took everyone in the sanctuary out. Now as to why she loves Subaru, either A. Satella had some romantic connection to Flugel and Subaru is a reincarnation of Flugel, or Subaru saves Satella in the future and Satella isn’t bound by time, or perhaps in a prior timeline - something like that.

[@Vadim666I]

Why so spoiler comments even exists here?

[@gantashiro978]

The most important detail from this whole season that was cut from the anime was supposed to happen this episode. It baffled novel readers to why it was excluded for no reason but the detail is the reveal that Satella and the Witch of Envy are NOT the same person. They're like two separate personalities within Satella's body. Apparently, Satella herself is a good girl, so despite losing their lives to her, all the other witches except for Echidna like her. This was a huge revelation, and it's unfortunate that it was left out for no reason.

[@galonski64]

To be fair, who knows if it cut. People are so quick to want to post ln or manga spoiler, that some of that stuff get placed later, to keep the story going. I've seen it in other anime and such.

[@OnMyLunchBreak07]

As the guy above me said, I suspect it will be included later on. Perhaps the context here and a later chapter will merge for added drama and twist. In which case, I do look forward that episode if it happens 👀

[@badwulff]

@@galonski64 Indeed. I'm not willing to whine about "cuts" until: A) either the whole story's adapted and some content has been inarguably left out, or B) we've reached the last possible point where the adaptation could reveal a piece of info before having to move on to the rest, and it still hasn't happened. Obviously the original story is itself not finished so A isn't the case; and the nice thing about ReZero is that it's like a giant puzzle, where the information is often deliberately left vague, or given in an ambiguous manner, and where lots of bits and pieces are picked up throughout the story. Sometimes answers about a past chapter come in incredibly late, while earlier chapters give clues or outright answers about things that won't happen for a while. So this means that B can never exactly be applied here either, since it's always possible to play around with the way and the exact moments the information is presented.

[@galonski64]

@badwulff I also see it as a good reason to make read the ln or anime too. I been enjoying reincarnated sword after the anime. Still hope for a season 2, but the books been fun, even seeing new stuff the anime had to cut or change

[@badwulff]

@@galonski64 Oh hell yeah, reincarnated sword is an absolutely goated isekai. I really didn't think I'd enjoy it as much as I did (especially given the surface-level resemblance with Reborn as a Vending Machine, which I found rather mid), but the way the two leads interact is one of the best anime relationships I've seen so far.

[@Theunluckiest5437]

This isn't really a spoiler but read at your own risk The other witches heavily imply during this whole conversation that Satella and The Witch of Envy aren't the same person, in the light novel. So, the one who gave Subaru the Return-By-Death power is Satella and not the Witch

[@sam_mitschiro]

I would rather call this cut content than spoilers. Same with the after-tea party of the witches, where they discussed Subarus potential for the Sage candidate.

[@Theunluckiest5437]

@@sam_mitschiro THANK YOU! I COULD NOT REMEMBER THE TERM FOR IT

[@deepdawn1284]

We don’t have any actual confirmation on Satella or WoE giving RbD to Subaru. We never saw anyone confirm it. It could be just that RbD is Subaru’s own manifestation from Envy Witch Factor. Because I don’t really like the idea of Satella giving RbD to Subaru directly. Authorities shaped by the wishes. I don’t think someone who loves Subaru this much wouldn’t manifest an Authority with a condition of death. If the Authority manifested from Subaru it would make a lot more sense since Subaru kinda hates himself… a lot…

[@sam_mitschiro]

@@deepdawn1284 Echidna confirmed it not that long ago. She called rdb a witch's wild delusion. "In Volume 11, it is revealed by the Witch of Greed that Return by Death is actually an Authority given to him by the Witch of Envy in order to prevent him from being shackled by mortality, granting him a means to challenge fate itself and beat impossible odds in which he's destined to die in the most cruelest of ways." Aside from that my 2 cents are: other than the witch factors received upon defeating other witches/archbishops which can be shaped from the hosts wishes, the one from Envy still resides within Satella as she is still alive, so the authority is shaped and given by her and only her.

[@skebaba918]

@@deepdawn1284 The death is an IMPORTANT part of it, because as Echidna explained, Satella DOESN'T want him to ever be stuck in the permanent Bad End caused by his death, ergo it loops him to a prior point to ensure this Bad End never happens. This is also why he can't tell anyone about RbD, because that might mean they will prevent him from dying whatsoever after torturing that piece of info out of him, so the "can't talk about it or you auto-die or the person hearing it auto-dies" exists so even via torture you can't extract this shit, and thus you will have no incentive in preventing him from dying, because you don't know he will just time-loop & can exploit his current knowledge in the past etc, which would be a HUUUGE security threat to literally anyone of any power that matters

[@blackcid]

I wonder if there is a hidden first loop. Subaru was transported to this world, saved Satella, something happened, then Satella went back in time and gave him the power. Since it was Satella who went back in time first time, Subaru can't remember that first loop.

[@DesEuler]

This surely happened, but I imagine the first loop was extraordinarily long because the only way to prevent the outcome was to go back very far. It was also probably necessary to grant Subaru the Return by Death ability...

[@RingxWorld]

There almost certainly will be a Stein's Gate like episode 23/ episode 1 parallel for that first loop when the story decides they want to start solving mysteries instead of constantly expanding the world building and cast. But the actual Satella line implies they had a relationship and not a short one either. Here's what she said in the novels: "I, love you ――Because you gave me light. It was you who took me by the hand, and showed me how beautiful the outside world is. At night when I was lonely and afraid, you always held my hand and never let go. And when I was all alone, you kissed me on the lips and told me that I wasn’t alone. You’ve given me so, so much. ……That’s why, I love you. Because you… you gave me everything."

[@f.calamo6658]

It's easier to imagine he was convoked (isekaid by a truck leaving the store) as hero (flugel) then after send back or dying subaru was time meddled to come alive and without other cheats than the authority of envy.

[@Aaadapro]

Yeah I think so too

[@sammybutler3027]

I think that this theory could also be plausible because the power to remove and return memories has already been shown, by echidna, so it’s possible that Satella maybe used this power as well

[@zennvirus7980]

Another important detail about Subaru's attempt at suicide during the meeting with the Witches: In both the novel and the manga we get to hear his thoughts on what Satella is saying to him, and just before he bites his tongue, a certain thought crosses his mind... Essentially, the way his conversation is going with Satella is eerily similar to how it is every time he himself tries to explain Return By Death to others... down to the result. Now, the rest is just my speculation, but maybe this Subaru is different from the Subaru Satella met originally in the same sense that the current Emilia is different from the one Subaru met on his very first loop (meaning, they remember their original deeds, even if the others don't know the reason). This theory is supported by how Emilia always asks Subaru why he risks himself for her. Maybe Satella's relationship with Subaru is the same as his with Emilia, only her circumstances don't allow for her to reach him save on moments like this. Thus, because Satella tried to tell him something that belonged to a different loop (of hers), the backlash of her Authority, her skill, made Subaru kill himself, but the others interpreted it as Subaru killing himself to escape an unwanted reality.

[@TheAHuman]

And that’s the first half of Season 2 done. Now the set up is done, now it’s time for the fun part. Where this first half was Subaru learning to love himself and setting up all the parts of the sanctuary arc, the second half will be actually doing something with all that, and making everyone a gigachad. And of course day 14 (2 weeks already) of requesting Luke react to the original songs of the new Phase Connect generation.

[@suryasingh2887]

'Fun' part lol. That was me at the start of arc5. Sir, I think you forgot lia's first trial and whatever the heck is going on in the mansion.

[@sam_mitschiro]

Well yes, Rem is supposed to be gone but not by her will. There was just no way of saving her, which is why the checkpoint was updated. Even if they would have made it in time, Ley and Regulus are just too strong for any of the members present at that time. So, what we got was the best possible outcome with the least amount and least severe sacrifices.

[@SmthPositive_]

I’d say you should have Demon Slayer, Overlord & Vinland Saga in the Poll It hasn’t been explained in the anime but Satella and the witch of envy are 2 different personality Satella couldn’t adapt to the envy with factor this why she has a split personality the one who devoured the world and grabs Subarus heart is the envy persona 1:24 That’s the witches miasma the stuff everyone is smelling on Subaru 4:29 I wouldn’t say so because Satella is showing a clear concern for Subarus wellbeing. Crazy Emilia completely disregarded Subaru being injured to the point where he bleed to death in her lap 8:09 Btw since this world is within the mind and mental injuries remain outside of return by death Subaru would’ve really died if Minerva didn’t heal him there. That’s how few up he was with everyone and everything 9:19 Besides the spilt personality always remember history is written by the victor 11:02 they didn’t interfere because they respected Subarus decision before Minerva would’ve healed him without him wanting her to do so but now he realized that he actually wants to live so they let her 13:03 Maybe but Echidna also said Subarus return by death is caused by the witches delusion 24:43 Garfiel attempted the 1st trial but he never passed it 27:03 The face paint is to show that Roswaal is in character, you might’ve not noticed it but he stopped speaking sing songy as well and started telling Subaru his true objective it also a sign that he lost hope in the current loop 28:58 You will find out whenever yes or no this season still so I’ll fill you in by the time the episode comes because it got cut in the anime just how involved Roswaal was in everything starting from episode 1 32:04 Roswaal knew Subaru would restart if he killed Ram so that instance it didn’t matter 38:33 Also nice parallels to episode 13 of season 1 when Subaru and Emilia were arguing and Emilia didn’t understand how she did all these amazing things for Subarus and only he remembered because these things happened in dead timelines and now Subaru isn’t understanding how he supposedly did anything for Satella

So funny because suddenly I realize that we asked the same question as to why Satella love Subaru so much is pretty much how Emilia feels towards Subaru, Yes Emilia save him when he got beat up by some thugs, but to Emilia it never happen because She never have that experiences after Subaru multiple attempt of RBD, yet we and Subaru in cosine are as clueless as it is because only Satella understand what good thing he done in whatever time or life he has with Satella that make her really love Subaru, you see how Emilia situation with Subaru resembling how Subaru situation with Satella, that for whatever unknown reason Satella just love Subaru. Like how ironic this perspective lol

[@dieblauebedrohung]

Since everyone is only talking about Satella not being the same as the Witch, here's a few different Things: 1. Perfect Subaru Analysis as to why he doesn't ask for Help. You understand him very well! 2. Yes, so the Counterpoint to "I can return if I die, others can't" is that Satella only wants him to *survive* by Reviving, as a Backup. Ideally he doesn't die in the first Place, so he should strive for the Result that everyone's happy with, which includes working with others and potentially putting them at Risk. 3. It's not "Return *to* Death", it's "Return *by* Death". 4. Echidna took his Qualifications because he denied her the Deal. Yes she wanted to help him, but she also noted how greedy he was to want to solve everything by himself, without her Help. Gaining the Qualification for the Trial *was* Part of her Help, so it's like: "If you deny my Wish and don't want my Assistance, good Luck getting to your Goal!" 5. Roswaal is not the Master of the Mabeasts or anything like that. It is now revealed that he was behind all the Shit that went down earlier _(think back to the Theft at the Beginning, the Bowel *Hunter*, or the blank Letter)_, but Mabeasts work differently. They are *created* by the Witch and attracted to her Scent, but they are shown to be controlled by one of the Assassins, not Roswaal. 6. The Witch of Envy is not dead/defeated afaik. 7. Does Satella resemble Emilia? Or does Emilia rather resemble Satella? 8. I have to disagree, I don't think Lunatic Emilia is very comparable to Satella. I think that's a bit farfetched, Satella doesn't really seem insane at all. 9. So Demon Slayer was confirmed? I hope we see Re:Zero Season 2 Part 2 first though!

[@rhazortrhazort3003]

Also another thing that we only know by Extra material (and an Isekai Quartet movie and promotional material) is that long ago, there was a certain group of famous characters in the Re:Zero world that used to travel together (like an adventuring party). Amongs them was, Reid Astrea, the first Sword saint and ancestor of Reinhard, Farsale Lugnica, the first king of Lugnica, Alec Hoshin, the founder of Kararagi, SATELLA AND ECHIDNA BOTH and a last member called Flugel that we know very little about and that most of his accomplishments have been lost to history.

This has been commented a couple of times but I thought I would post the cut excerpt with Satella verbatim from the web novel translation because I thought Subaru's reaction is also very interesting: Satella: “I am in love with you. -Because you gave me light. Because you took me by the hand, and taught me the world outside. Because through nights where in solitude I shivered, you kept by my side with your hands around mine. Because, then being alone, by your kiss you told me I wasn't. There are so many things you've given to me. ...And so, I love you. Because you-you gave me everything.” Subaru: “-” Subaru has not a single memory of any involvement in any part of Satella's whisperings. He isn't part of it, doesn’t know any of it. He has never met Satella, never spoken with her, never overlaid his warmth with hers. Everything she is talking about is the fruits of her delusion. This woman insane with sentiment had lined up empty daydreams where she simply watched a fantasy of Subaru. Is what this should be, but NATSUKI SUBARU does know this. Subaru: “Why're this... inside me, what is this? I don't want to feel this. Don't tether me with, non- existent memories... I... I damn... I goddamn...” Hate you, is all he has to say. All he has to do is stab the one giving him their feelings with the announcement that he held not a single speck of fondness for her. Then would be spectating just what expression the one egotistically trying to distort his emotions would make. Bet the pain to her heart would have her face twisting magnificently. -How are you capable of doing that to her? (After this Subaru bites his tongue). This really added to the "Subaru and Satella have a past together, but Subaru lacks the memories" theory. The particular form of which may still be up for further debate.

[@indigo9808]

I don't know if anyone has suggested this but I wonder if you'd ever look into Fruits Basket? (2019, 2020, 2021 reboot version). It can be quite silly at times with the whole Chinese Zodiac shenanigans and high school aged setting & comedy aspects but it also addresses heavy real life concerns such as abuse & neglect, depression, death and recovering from trauma. Probably one of the only series that made me quite emotional, and I barely cry for anything😅 Synopsis: After a family tragedy turns her life upside down, plucky high schooler Tohru Honda takes matters into her own hands and moves out... into a tent! Unfortunately for her, she pitches her new home on private land belonging to the mysterious Sohma clan, and it isn't long before the owners discover her secret. But, as Tohru quickly finds out when the family offers to take her in, the Sohmas have a secret of their own--when hugged by the opposite sex, they turn into the animals of the Chinese Zodiac! But this curse has a history of abuse, isolation, ostracization, fear, and pain behind it; which has caused much suffering and broken many Sohmas. Despite this, Tohru may just be able to heal the Sohmas hearts and soothe their souls, and even break the curse once and for all. It has a 4.9 rating on google-- 8.6/10 on IMDb-- and 9/10 on MyAnimeList

Read below lines The Witch of Pride, seeking to pass judgment upon the one who made the young boy cry. The Witch of Wrath, clenching her fists, wishing that the feelings of the close friend at her side would bear fruit. The Witch of Sloth, paying heed to everyone’s movements, languidly prepared to instantly attack if anything should happen. The Witch of Lust, keeping her uninvolved demeanor, ready to protect herself should the matters escalate in a flash. The Witch of Gluttony, having already lost interest in what was happening around her, now agonizing over whose fingers to munch on to best stave off her hunger. The Witch of Greed, directing her hostility toward one Witch in particular, while her eyes went on brimming with curiosity at just how this tea party shall unfold. And, the one who was not the Witch of Envy, but Satella―― Satella: “I, love you―― Because you gave me light. It was you who took me by the hand and showed me the world outside. In the nights when I was lonely and afraid, you stayed by my side with your hands around mine. And when I was all alone, you kissed me on the lips and told me that I wasn’t. You’ve given me so, so much… That’s why, I love you. Because you… you gave me everything.” Subaru: “――――” Subaru couldn’t recall doing a single thing that Satella had whispered. He had no part in it, it had nothing to do with him. Whether it was meeting Satella, trading words with her, or sharing a single feeling of warmth. Everything she is talking about is the fruits of her delusion. This woman insane with sentiment had lined up empty daydreams where she simply watched a fantasy of Subaru. That was how it should be. And yet, Natsuki Subaru remembered. Subaru: “Why is this… inside me, what is this? I don’t want this feeling. Don’t try to bind me… with memories that can’t exist… you… you… I… Hk.” “I hate you”, was all he needed to say. All he had to do was stab the girl who offered him these feelings with the fact that he didn’t have the slightest affection for her. Once he does, he would be able to see the look on the face of the one who had selfishly sought to warp his heart. Surely, it would be an expression magnificently twisted by heartbreak. ――But, how are you even capable of doing that to her?

[@Filimaua13]

Its what I love about this show and the treatment of Subaru's character so much. The trauma he's experienced, the self loathing he's felt about himself for so long (before he even came to this world), the tough fronts and fake smiles and laughs, the hidden suffering, the emotional outbursts... all of it isn't not gonna go away so easily. He will keep moving forward but he still needs to consistently work on his self love and keep himself in check to ensure he won't fall back into those old habits and toxic mentality again. The same way an alcoholic or drug addict will need to keep themselves in check to ensure they won't fall back into their harmful vices again. Alot of people have wondered, why are we still on this topic of self love and worthlessness. Shouldn't Subaru have learnt this from Rem back in season 1. Yes, he did. But all it did was help him get back on his feet to keep fighting. Expecting ONE pep talk to wipe away all those deep rooted feelings he's had about himself is ignorant and arrogant. Its the same mindset as thinking "oh, you're seriously deeply depressed? Just be happy! That will improve your self worth, right. I have the power to say all these happy words full of love to you. That will definitely solve all your internal issues." This episode for example. Subaru just got the greatest therapy session on self love from the witches. And yet, just as easily... all that progress had the potential to fall apart again after the confrontation from Roswaal. He fell back into despair, blamed himself and was about to go back into his shell of "doing it all himself." Until Otto (the goat) literally punched some sense into him telling him to stop putting on that tough front and just ask for help from his friends!

[@Doctor_Yiggles]

I'm so glad you are enjoying this anime & I love your reactions to it all, Luke! It really gets you invested and wanting to know more about each character even the Witches doesn't it! 😁

[@dirtymightmusic5239]

Thats the great thing about Re Zero. It gives you answers to your questions but at the same time it gives you 3 more questions than you had before. So you are slowly making progress and connecting the dots, but there appear just so many more dots that need connecting again. One thing that got cut from the anime this episode compared to the novels could help to give you atleast one puzzle piece to make things clearer. Satella and the Witch of Envy are NOT the same. How the start of this episode played out in the Novels is that when Satella appeared the Witches all reacted differently and Subaru wanted the other witches to kill her. Echidna said she would love to but she doesnt want to make enemies of the other witches. Subaru was really confused about why they would not want to kill Satella when she was the one that killed all of them. Here are some direct lines out of the novels which take part at the start of the episode to confirm this: Camilla: “That ENVY is... is, e-everyone's foe, is... is right, but, t-that... thing and her, are... ddifferent, cases... mm?” Subaru: “...I don't understand what you're saying. What're all of you...” Sekhmet: “So long as we don't know which one that thing standing there is-huu-more than us being unwilling to act, to do so'd be unreasonable-haa.” Subaru: “Which one?” Minerva: “-Are you the WITCH OF ENVY? Or are you Satella? Which?” Then some more informations happened and this line was said: Minerva: “See, look. She knew there wasn't any need to dodge my punch, that's Satella, not the WITCH OF ENVY. Echidna, your caution's pointless.”

[@Amyante]

In the Witches' twisted way of thinking... Return by Death would be Satella's way of ensuring Subaru can live without regrets.

[@jasonreyes6286]

The reason why Roswaal cleaned his makeup it's a metaphor of him dropping the act and stop performing, from that moment he was being serious, you can notice because also his way to speak changes, leaving the piero (clown) behind.

[@siginotmylastname3969]

One thing to bear in mind is that dialogue in re zero isn't intended to be 100% realistic, it's often used to show parallels between characters so that someone using the same lines DOESN'T give evidence for things like Emilia and Satella's connection. But on the other hand sometimes their speech quirks DO give evidence for it. Or something similar, like how Subaru laughed like Petelgeuse in ep 15 and literally WAS Petelgeuse.

[@siginotmylastname3969]

So basically because re zero includes time loops people think it's obvious that the evidence points to a big time loop scenario. But there's a different trope which is very widely used in fantasy which is repeating or learning from the mistakes of the previous generations. I know it's really up in the air with Satella but I just think she's followed a similar path to Emilia, to a point, and Emilia's changes resemble Satella because it's about how she could turn out emotionally rather than literally(since, you know, the witch of envy is alive right now and Subaru seemingly has her envy witch factor which is a mystery you haven't spotted perhaps!). Spoilers for season 2 and some arc 6 bits: From what we hear briefly through Volcanica, Satella was loved and revered by everyone close to her. The world wasn't free of hatred of elves then either, but just as Emilia's family and village all treated her well Satella was presumably pretty well regarded with the people she actually saw. So considering Emilia's current struggles come from a past when she was locked up, isolated, loved and kept ignorant of anything which could harm her only to have them all sacrificing themselves for her sake, and this arc is going AGAINST that pattern of the people around her, I feel like it makes the most sense that Satella never managed to handle the witch factor because she was coddled, idealised, and so never learned how to handle the challenges she faced on an emotional level. Even the witches' behaviour fits this, Minerva who was her closest friend does nothing but take her side the entire conversation and I think you can read it as kind of toxic. It's why she shows basically zero consideration for Subaru while saying he should be more grateful, she just loves Satella that much. Even though Satella herself doesn't look like she doesn't blame herself for his struuggling(I mean it's Satella's hand which is trying to comfort him while torturing him with talking about rbd after all). Both Emilia and Satella were supposed to be people who are kind to a fault, virtuous and as a result Satella was incompatible with the envy witch factor creating the witch of envy. But Emilia hasn't been given a witch factor yet, and is being made to face her challenges, instead of remaining pure and innocent without needing to. So what's needed to stop things from repeating is to avoid Emilia going down Satella's path metaphorically, not literally.

[@filipe_paixao]

In case you didn't notice... The witches seem very FRIENDLY with SATELLA, but they were UnFRIENDLY when they talked about the WITCH OF ENVY... That's kinda important...

[@rowanmales3430]

What I like about the witches is their worldview is fundamentally based on their respective "sin" but it doesn't follow as is traditional that that perspective is negative. Both the Echidna and Subaru are fundamentally opposed in their emotional outlook on the world around them and yet either would not look out of place if they had the witch of Greed position. And how the Witch of Wrath is passionately wrathful in her desire to heal others and not allow them to die in her presence.

[@santiagolopez-fg6ws]

I love the witches, they all behave so differently, they all have different values, perceptions of reality yet can agree on many things. They are able to "coexist" casually in this reality because there is nothing they can do to affect the real world or their circumstances. They are supposed to be "unable to be comprehended" but that is only if you retain everything that makes you "human" like emotions, values, empathy, etc. Echidna wants to know, see or experience everything the world has to offer and for that she was willing to act without understanding how hurting others was "bad". To her, it's all information she treasures dearly for the sake of knowing. Minerva was angry at the world for its "injustice" because her reasoning is that everyone deserves to be happy, she can't look away from "injustice" but her actions on the things she can see affect parts of the world she can't see. She still hurts people in the world but she has to priorize what she can change in front of her eyes. Typhon has a polarized way of judging, If you are "bad" you shall feel pain, if you feel guilty you should get the punishment you think you deserve, if you are good you shall be saved from suffering and such. She acts like a child who was given the authority of a judge. Daphne wants to save the world from starvation but also give the "food" a winning chance which ended up being overwhelming. But that's "fair" for her. Carmilla wanted to help Subaru by reminding him of the people that love him by impersonating someone, something that could be seen as disrecpectful by others but not to her because helping others through love must be right. Sekhmet was chill, lol I don't know enought about her. And Satella truly loved Subaru in a similar way he loves Emilia, madly and in a confusing way, because both understand but the reciprocant doesn't.

[@Heisenmink]

If you want to see more interactions between the witches and get a glimpse behind the scenes, there is a short interlude chapter that takes place right after Subaru leaves the tea party with Satella. This chapter has been omitted, but it contains some pretty important information that you might want to know. It is safe to read, because it is an info you are supposed to know by this time. It talks about the characters of the witches, especially Echidna. It will raise a lot of questions in your head and make you reevaluate everything you've seen so far. If you would like to read it(it is a small chapter) here is the chapter(comment will be in 2 parts) : Arc 4 Interlude II: "The Guests have left" Sekhmet: "Letting him go like that, huh. Was it okay, huh?" Echidna: "It was his decision, his choice. I want to respect that. But I can't help feeling conflicted about him taking her hand and leaving holding that Thing’s hand" In response to Sekhmet's languid voice, Echidna shrugs her shoulders on the spot. They are still in the Castle of Dreams, with no change in the grassy fields and blue sky. The cool breeze blew through, gently stroking the witches' hair. The fractured world swallowed Subaru and Satella, and released them from the dream. Soon after, the world was repaired again. Naturally. The space connected to Echidna's soul, which cannot be destroyed, will maintain this state as long as Echidna exists. It was only an extravagant performance to drive away the departing guests. Echidna: “However, I can't help but feel tired when you use it so much. It would be helpful if you could run around treating people with a little more moderation” Minerva: “I only heal wounds that are within my reach, according to my own way of doing things. I don't discriminate between humans, witches, animals, birds, fish, insects, or magical beasts. The wounds of living things are my enemies!" Echidna: "Even so, the burden of your actions here comes to me, unlike when you were alive. When you were alive, the World was shouldering the burden, so can't you imagine how hard it is when such a burden falls on me alone?" Minerva: "I don't care about fatigue or things that can't be seen. I heal wounds. I don't care if the world's lifespan shortens or not” The witches sighed as Minerva crossed her arms and emphasized her voluptuous chest with her declaration. Minerva, the Witch of Wrath, is often seen as the most approachable, or even harmless of the seven witches who bear the names of the seven deadly sins. In fact, all of her actions are nothing but healing, and it is likely that the number of lives saved by her hand in the world at that time would not be contained in the five digits. However, it was also Minerva who indirectly caused the same amount of damage. All destructive energy, such as punching, kicking, and biting, is converted into healing energy if it is emitted from her hand. This ritual is not something that anyone other than her can imitate, because it is the authority of [Wrath]. Even Echidna cannot reproduce it, even if she understands the structure. Minerva's healing blows keep all living things away from threats that threaten their lives. It seems like a kind of omnipotent authority, but it is a mistake. The healing power of her fist is the result of a powerful ritual that twists causality, and it consumes a tremendous amount of mana every time it is activated. It is a quantity that is not possible for a single human to afford, and even with Minerva's magical aptitude as a witch, it is impossible. Then, where does her blow takes mana from? The answer is simple: it takes it from the core of the world. Normally, when humans use magic, they absorb mana from the atmosphere through a gate, convert it into magical energy, and then release it from the gate again. In Minerva's case, the gate is not connected to the atmosphere, but directly to the core of the world. It's hard to express what the core of the world is, but it is essentially a huge collection of supernatural mana, or in other words, the place where mana is born. Minerva's blows extract mana from it and convert it into healing blows. However, repeating this process can lead to an event where the mana that should be supplied to the original location is not distributed, causing a dangerous depletion of mana, which is a vital component of the world, in areas that are not reached. This can trigger disasters and natural calamities. The number of people she directly healed by punching is over five digits. However, the number of people who died in the natural disasters she indirectly caused is also comparable. Therefore, the Witch of Wrath, Minerva, was considered the most dangerous of the seven witches with the names of the seven deadly sins, and is regarded with hostility by all nations. Minerva: “Here, the mana I can draw out is only the amount that Echidna has. You can't heal or cure more than what's needed before you become parched, so I'm not satisfied" Echidna: "In the first place, there should be no reason for injuries to occur here. It's just that it was too noisy here for a while, and it almost caused a misunderstanding" Minerva: "Yes... It's been noisy for a while, hasn't it?" Minerva's momentum is dampened by Echidna's words. She has an understandable look of discouragement on her cute face as she looks up at the blue sky with her blonde hair and said, Minerva: " Do you think he can handle it? I'm really worried” Echidna: “My hands, which should have been able to handle it without a doubt, were rejected. In any case, he should be scrambling to make it work. It seems that he hasn't found the answer yet, though" Minerva: "What's with that way of saying it? You led him to brush off your hand yourself, and you're trying to hide your true intentions from us, even though we know the truth? It doesn't make any sense!" Echidna: "I didn't mean to be rejected. It's just that I would have been fine either way, whether he rejected me or accepted me." In response to Minerva, who was scowling, Echidna sat down at the table she had re-created. Then, she snapped her fingers to create a teacup and tilted it to her lips. Echidna: "I affirm choices and the results of choices. I don't think the results matter much. The fact that he chose, or the fact that he didn't choose, either one is important. I am proud to say that I am a person who can enjoy either outcome, good or bad" Daphne: "But... that doesn't mean you don't have any preference, does it? " A black-painted coffin slowly lined up next to Echidna, who was sipping her tea. Daphne, who had somehow returned to the coffin, was greedily devouring the tea cakes on the table like a dog. Daphne: "You say you respect the results, but you don't hesitate to lead to the results you want, don't you, Dona-Dona? It is true that it was okay either way, but isn't it also true that you were glad that it turned out this way?" Echidna: "You're a child who doesn't care about others, but you always hit the nail on the head, Daphne" Daphne: "It's just that compared to the hunger that has been bothering Daphne all the time, it's not worth thinking about. Haa haa, fumofumo" As Daphne ate past the tea cakes and started chewing on the plates, Echidna sighed and looked at the other witches who began to sit down at the remaining seats. Lazily, with undisguised anger, and with a look of trepidation on their face――and with a particularly stern look in their eyes, she was the only one

Algo importante que omitieron en el anime que lo más probable haya sido intencional,es que Setlla y la Bruja de la Envidia no son la misma persona,ya que esta enloqueció y se dividió en dos personalidades completamente distintas al obtener su factor de la Envidia,Satella apenas está haciendo su primera aparición en este arco quién estuvo con Subaru desde que llegó era la Bruja de la Envidia

[@e-classanime390]

5:40 maybe that is why Satella didn't give Subaru time to go back and save her.

[@Sylvastier]

I adore Otto, he's such a good character when he's not in his "everyone ignores him" gag because he's an absolute BRO! And while I don't think Subaru deserves ANY of the crap he gets, be it the situations he's in, his attitude toward others, his lack of questioning things, or even the fans hating him for his realistic personality. He needed to get checked by someone for how much he relies on himself. Like yeah there's not much he can say due to the curse but if you pay attention early series, he at least TRIED to get allies and revealed SOME of the things he knows, meanwhile this season he's been trying almost entirely on his own. Heck he's even gone as far as to using loops entirely for info without trying to change anything. He's somewhat already been on his way to becoming the tool Rosewall wants, but the easy solution would be for him to act like how he used to. Use his info to his advantage, trust others to do the heavy lifting when he knows he can't, gain alliances (which he's ignorant of the ones he already has due to his self worth issues). Kinda sad to think about how this season started off so happyish with Subaru getting closure with his parents and past life problems only to be hit with the equivalent of having to stop a nuke in his present day problems.

And that marks the end of part 1 of Season 2! Let's find out if in part 2 Subaru can liberate the sanctuary, clear the three trials, defeat/befriend Garfiel, protect Emilia, subvert Roswaal's machinations, defeat the Bowel Hunter, defeat the Beast Master, defeat the Great Rabbit, save Rem, save Frederica, save Petra, save Beatrice, and love himself, all within 4 to 5 days.

[@HaibaneRakka571]

29:45 regarding Subaru being strong willed, there's a random moment in Isekai Quartet where a character is thinking to themselves "what kinda mental stress is that guy used to living under?" 35:30 Otto casually being the best character in the show whenever he's on screen

[@tri99er_]

Satella and Witch of Envy are actually not the same entity. Satella is a silver haired half-elf. And Witch of Envy is the Witch. You can think of it as split personality or maybe even possession. So it's actually ironic, how everyone is hating Satella as the Witch of Envy. They are ignorant. Sort of similar to how they hate Emilia. Also, about the theory, that it's a possession, you can go back to Cult Attack and how Emilia was tried to see, if she's a worthy vessel for the Witch. That Witch in that case would not be Satella, but the entity that is the Witch of Envy. This is kind of a speculation though. There's also a possibility that Satella is dead, but the one who is sealed is the entity, that is Witch of Envy. That also explains, how she couldn't be killed. She's immaterial. And that's also why Witch Cult might search for a worthy vessel to house her. And Emilia unfortunately seems to have uncanny high affinity for the Witch.

[@jdoggivjc]

You're not alone in not understanding the relationship between Subaru and Satella. You're currently watching the Re:Zero's 4th story arc. Tappei Nagatsuki is currently writing the 8th story arc, and whatever the connection between Subaru and Satella is remains one of the series' great mysteries - and my guess is it won't be answered anytime soon.

[@Heisenmink]

Part II of the chapter: Echidna: "Typhon seems to be very angry" Echidna remarks, Typhon: "It is because Dona is not honest. Isn't not being honest the same as being a liar? Liars are bad, right? Is Dona bad?" Echidna: "I am acting honestly in accordance with what I desire. I don't remember lying, at least not yet" Echidna answered without hesitation to Typhon's straightforward statement. Echidna's clever wordplay was able to fool the young Typhon. Echidna knows that if she angers her, it will put the lives of everyone in the room at risk. Punishing the guilty and judging the sinner are just a part of Typhon's authority of “Pride”. But seeing Typhon satisfied as if she had been convinced by Echidna's words, the next to speak in a low voice is the witch buried in a ball of fur. Sekhmet: "Talking with a hidden intention is, well. It's not a lie, but it's a convenient thing, isn't it, huh?" Carmilla: "E-kidona-chan is really...m, troublesome, child, isn't she..." Echidna: "You guys..." As Echidna, who is under fire, frowns, the other witches relax their lips when they see her. The only one who is raising her eyebrows at the situation is Minerva. Sekhmet: "Minerva, how long are you going to sulk, huh? We all agreed on this after a discussion, huh... We knew this would happen when the sage candidate arrived... huh" Minerva: “Will you just shut up? I get it already. I agreed to the discussion just fine. It's just that I'm not in the same position as you guys to just let it go. I hope you understand that too” Daphne: " For Met-Met who hangs out all the time with Ty-Ty, it is natural she wouldn't understand. Don't you think everyone spends too much of their lives on things other than eating to live?” In response to Daphne's interruption, Minerva and Sekhmet both snorted in dissatisfaction. Although the tea party between the witches is relatively balanced, they are originally a group of beings with strong egos. It is more common for their opinions to clash, and it is not uncommon for them to argue in this way. Especially Minerva, who would poke anyone, and Sekhmet, who disliked conflict, would often have small skirmishes. Every time, Daphne, who would interrupt without reading the air and get to the heart of the matter, would interfere. It was also always the case that the argument would end in a stalemate. Minerva is angry, Sekhmet is taking her on, Daphne is adding fuel to the fire, Carmilla is trying to keep Typhon from exploding, Echidna is watching them with amusement, and Satella is smiling as she watches the six of them, safe and sound. That was something that happened four hundred years ago, and it will never happen again. Satella went insane due to her witch factor, Minerva went mad and died in a trap, Carmilla was burned to ashes in a fire, Daphne died of dehydration in a sea of sand, Typhon was drowned in the water, Sekhmet killed a dragon and fell into a waterfall, and Echidna collected only their souls and herself was also bound to the present world with only her soul. This is an incomplete reproduction of those days that will never come back. Carmilla: "Ekidona-chan... are you sad? You look sad, don't you?" Echidna: "Why? There's no reason for me to be sad. You're all here, and I have opportunities to interact with the outside world to some extent. There Is nothing else I need" Echidna replied, Carmilla: "Is that okay? We're... just souls, so we're not the real us, right? We're... already dead. No one can really be with Echidna-chan... right...?" Carmilla said, her voice breaking intermittently, In the intermittent words of Carmilla, Echidna stammered for a moment. Echidna’s power allows these women, who have lost their bodies and become beings of only souls, to have a temporary body in the form of a spiritual construct. Echidna has prepared vessels and placed the souls within them. However, the souls are frozen in time at the moment of their deaths, and they have not changed since then. So, is the Carmilla who is looking at Echidna now truly Carmilla? Is Echidna manipulating the bodies by eliciting the reactions from the souls inherent to them during their lifetime and having it play like a puppet show guided by her own desires? In fact, they share Echidna’s knowledge. How can it be said that their existence does not arise from within Echidna? - This is already a discussion that has been thought through many times. Echidna: " You, who are a bundle of narcissism, it's rare for you to worry about me, even if you're a friend. Have you been influenced by his noisiness and kindness?" Carmilla: "I-I don't... know... you're... stupid, Echidna-chan." Carmilla said with a disappointed look on her face in response to Echidna's answer, which was a deception of her true feelings. Echidna couldn't help but laugh at her answer, which made her throat rumble. When the other witches noticed Echidna's reaction, they turned their gazes to her. Bathed in their gaze, Echidna spread her arms and said, Echidna: "Well, the tea party will be for the witches only for a while. He, Natsuki Subaru, will probably never set foot here again" Minerva: "Are you okay with that? I don't care if you're lonely or anything like that, but you said something at the end, right? About the compensation and things like that, aren't you supposed to be noisy about that?" Echidna: " Compensation... oh, that too. A farewell gift for him, who is expected to face hardship - would you laugh at me if I said that?" The witches exchanged glances as Echidna, her chin in her hand, pondered. Then they nodded and spoke in unison, Witches: "――Of course not" Echidna: " Hmm, I was more highly regarded than I thought..." Minerva: "Because it's impossible for you to just lend a helping hand without getting any compensation." Minerva, who had her arms crossed, said firmly, and the witches nodded in agreement. Echidna closed her eyes and then cleared her throat. Echidna: "I think there are many things I need to talk to you about. Truly, what is that you think of me?" Witches: "――――" Echidna: "However, well..." In front of the silent witches, Echidna drank the contents of her cup, licked her lips seductively with her red tongue, and said, Echidna: “Well, you're not entirely wrong"

[@SavvisGeo]

that rumbling in the end is hilarious 😆😆😆 Also its my belief that Emilia is the witch of Envy and there is some time distortion involved

[@feodaron89]

Oh yeah...the episode where the Witches of Sin interact with each other and Subaru....love it. Witches of Sin are not directly evil. And they are mostly friendly with each other and can sometimes provide small favors to each other or even help if their goals and opinions converge. But the Witches of Sin are not a coherent group. Once their opinions and desires diverge (as with Subaru, for example), they will not hesitate to use force against each other. They are quite a volatile group. But there is one thing that unites them all. They are all witches and they consider each other equals. However, they don't think about people that way. Do you remember how Daphne said to Subaru “if you think that a mere human can do this, then go ahead and try it”. The biggest shock for me, of course, was Satella. I didn't think she would be so... caring and kind. I thought she would be the only one evil and truly crazy, but as it turns out, this is not the case. Her interactions with Subaru are the strangest because...she speaks as if she has known him for a long time. But neither we nor Subaru have any knowledge about this. My guess is either some kind of time manipulation, or an oath that erases memory... one of these.

[@Shiwayari]

Speculation, not spoiler: I definitely feel like it's VERY strongly hinted that there is some time loop or something going on and Satella IS what Emilia became for some reason as she awakened time manipulating powers, became a timeless being, or something along those lines. We got pieces to speculate how that could make sense: - Subaru being fully devoted to Emilia no matter what -> Subaru first death = self sacrifice for Emilia - Return by death given by Satella = Emilia trying to save him - However, by the Steins Gate effect, he still always dies in every loop - Thus, Satella trying to die = trying to erase the reason for his death from the timeline - Subaru not allowed to mention his power = making sure no traces of her existence remain, i.e. getting rid of any time paradox so she can be fully erased from the timeline There're still loopholes, but I find "Satella = Emilia" so heavily hinted at this episode that I'll be more surprised if it ends up being false than getting other unexpected reasons for any remaining loopholes.

[@tawashi007]

In my opinion, Emilia doesn't remember saving Subaru for the same reason that she doesn't remember Subaru saving Satella.

[@sifujacob1259]

My theory as an anime only watcher is that Roswaal is Subaru from a future timeline where he wasn’t able to save everyone, so now he is trying to strengthen his past self.

[@user-wq3vc9bg3n]

Meanwhile Roswaal A. Mathers, being the real only Roswaal and character completely separate from Subaru

[@manuelagius8875]

and yes i think that somewhat Emilia is (not in the past) of which the Witch of Envy is now. But the other way around. Emilia is the future of the Witch of Envy.

[@UncensoredScion]

No, Emilia wasn't saying the same things as Satella was when she went nuts. Sometimes I wonder if people are actively listening when things happen rather than just barely noticing while reading subs because "Aishiteru" is not the same word as "Daisuki" They both have the same meaning essentially but they're entirely different terms. Daisuki is what you'll hear most people say in media from Japan, it's a term meaning "Love/like" and it's very appropriate for polite society, it's more modern a term than the other and it is used because speaking publicly about loving another person is more of a modern phenomenon in Japan. Aishiteru is far different a thing, it's a very weighty word in Japan and something that has far more meaning than just "love" it involves the person saying how they would never want to live without the person and care about them on a level that is somewhat unseemly to speak of in public. It used to be used more often than Daisuki in Japan many years ago as it was the main term used to express love for another, but it was only ever really spoken of in private between two people. Satella uses "Aishiteru" as there is meant to be a type of obsession she has with Subaru. Emilia used "Daisuki" as she is very child-like and naive, thinking of something in simple terms while having the same sort of obsessive controlling nature that Satella has. That's why Satella also said "moto anatau aishite" which directly translates to "More yourself love" or "love yourself more." but it's not meant here to be obsessive, it's meant to have serious meaning as Satella is saying it while coherent and clear headed that she just wants Subaru to care about himself.

Prob (?) SPOILER One thing it was cut in this episode was: Satella and the Witch of Envy aren't the same person. When Satella took the Witch Factor of Envy, her personality split in two for her wasn't compatible with the sin. Envy wants to keep Subaru with ultimate jealousy, Satella wants Subaru loves himself more.

I appreciate people who know what's like to be in someone else's shooes. It's easy to guide someone, it's easy to say the rational thing to do in any situation but depends on the person how they see it. Just like Mushoku Tensei, even going outside was a big deal. Someone without traumas in their mind, would find that funny

[@Butane9000]

As others have stated they cut out some of the lines and context. The Witches all generally like and interact with each other but Satella had a split personality. Also, Echidna removed Subaru's approval to undergo the trials as a means to force him to take the contract because she's greedy and still wants access to his Return by Death ability. But what this episode really is and why it's so important is it tells us something about Subaru that's always been there since episode 1. He doesn't love himself or care for himself. He started the series winding up isekai'd into this world only to find out he's got nothing. Then he learns he returns by death and throws himself head first into using it without a second thought to his own safety only thinking about helping those around him. Even when Rem confesses to him he works to try and live up to her beliefs not really thinking he's worthy of love. It's clear Subaru's desperate for love and a reason to exist. Since he's got the ability to RbD he's done nothing but sacrifice himself for others. It's why I liked Satella telling him why she gave him the power. She wants him to learn to love himself and use that power to protect himself (not necessarily others). Now for Roswaal I don't think you noticed how his eyes changed. If you go back and look his eyes have always been a kind of violet or ruby color. Except when he's conversing with Subaru his eyes change to a yellow color with lizard like pupils. If you look back to season 1 when he mentions his goal is to kill the dragon that protects the country then in this when he says he's lived for 400 years it's safe to assume he's either a dragon himself or maybe a dragon like cultist (note, this is my own theory). He's trying to force Subaru into becoming a tool for himself to carry out his plan. My own theory regarding what will happen going forward (only read the manga which isn't that much further ahead then this episode) is that Subaru is sent back into the past by either Satella or The Witch of Envy and he might be the one who actually "kills" her in the past. Given the statements of the other Apostles/Servants of the Witches it seems they want to revive Satella/WoE using Emilia. Given Emilia's own past it's reasonable to assume she was a mechanism for the WoE to revive herself except it didn't work right. So you've got a clone of the WoE/Satella just waiting for the correct soul to take over.
