Only a two month break and we're back with the next batch of Re Zero, and right into the action we've all waited for... Priscilla vs. clothes. No but seriously, never knew I needed this scene until now lmao. OP remained the same visually and music wise. Weird choice, but it's whatever.

Get into the real action now, with Otto meeting up with Gluttony... VERY interested to see what those two will be doing in the future. Meanwhile we got Wilhelm and Garfiel fighting their own little battles with the corpse soldiers.. with one of them being, yes, Theresia. But back to Priscilla though, look like her and Liliana will be fighting wrath in this arc.

But back to the main boys themselves, Subaru and Reinhard... where REINHARD FUCKING DIES?????? But comes back in no times and straight to attacking Regulus lmaoooo. Guess I didn't have to wait that long to see what Otto vs. Gluttony would be looking like, because we switch back to them and Gluttony is waiting NO time and goes straight for bro. Glad to see Subaru and Emilia have a little interaction after so long of not seeing them together. That scene of Emilia telling him they have to fight together was too precious.

Looks like Felix is in trouble though, with Lust showing up there at the end. Great return as usual, animation looking nice and crisp, as I expected. Last half of the season was nothing more than setup, as now we are going straight to the action!

Oh what a way to start the episode… except the stuff was uncensored, unsurprisingly lol. Really though, back after a few months and straight to the business, like usual. Btw I thought we’d pick up the stuff on Subaru’s side straight away, but yeah, getting multiple POV all during the same time, does make it a point that stakes are equally higher at everyone’s side. I find it hilarious as well, that how the rest of the bunch is simply fighting with a no-nonsense stand, but when it comes to Regulus, you just know, that can’t be avoided.

Crashing at someone’s wedding is one thing, but yeah, trying to take away not only one of them, but all of Regulus’s wives was an absolutely gold move. Big W to Reinhard and Subaru. Also if there is anyone except Regulus who actually made it seem like he’s in Regulus’s league, it has to be Roy. Dude is having the time of his life while messing with Otto and bunch. Really though, pretty much what I expected of this return. Animation is looking good enough, and yeah, things have gone south… already. Someone just save Crusch man:(

Re zero is finally back after what feels like forever
Amazing episode as always
can't want for more

Some LN Extra Details (Volume 18 Chapter 5.2 & Volume 19, Chapter Prologue + 1-1.2, 2-2.3)
- Priscilla allowed Liliana to touch her to help her suit up her back.
- Otto thought of how his family will think of him, running around without thinking of making profits from it
- Despite Otto's fear and complaining, he cannot leave the Emilia's camp alone, especially when they need him, because he cares for them.
- The leader of Kiritaka's White Dragon Scale's name is Dynas, who is also Kiritaka's right hand man, and the man in a group that stayed behind to help Anastasia and the other escape when they are being attacked by Sirius earlier (in episode 5)
- White Dragon Scale is a private soldier that only answers to Kirataka, one of the city's leader.
- Otto had thought that Felt is a good person and would not be against supporting her if he had met her first
- Wilhelm told Garfield that the corpses are far from their prime
- Garfield still has a lot of doubt in his head if he can defeat the Eight-Arm Kurgan and protect everyone he loves
- Ricardo teases Julius, calling him son-in-law
- Julius told Ricardo when he's battling Roy in rooftop, he spoke of things that would only be known within their camps, so he thought that Roy may had laid hand on someone connected to them and have lost memories of them.
- Emilia had tried to kick Regulus in his chest and groin when she's being choke, but had no effect
- After Reinhard blow up the chapel, Subaru repeat the similar joke from season 1 that if he's really a monster.
- Subaru was wondering if he was a ninja on top of being a knight and using substitution technique or something. Reinhard denies that, saying that he is revived by the blessing of the Phoenix.
- Emilia is wondering is she did meet him before and asked him, but he is too rageful and went into tantrum.

Differences from LN
- Kurgan only shows his full body once his cloak is removed by Garfield when Garfiel's fang tore into his wrist. Garfiel only felt fear when he see his full form.
- Emilia hands Reinhard another ice sword after he kicked Regulus out of the chapel.
- Subaru had a problem hearing Reinhard at first, even with his blessing of telepathy, due to Regulus trying to snipe him with pebble and small rubble, but stopped with Reinhard's air blade
- The conversation of Priscilla with Liliana and Anastasia happened before she changes her dress
- In LN, for this episode, each character part is told in full portion while in anime is in shorter burst and more cuts. Some parts of it may also continue in next episode

We are so fucking back. Solid set up for what should be the best ever stretch of episodes for Re Zero. I’m glad they took the break so they could finish Sengoku Youko and go hard on these.

Priscilla oh my God you saved my worthless broke ass life. What a woman. Insane face card, body tea and badass. Perfection.

Theresia reveal finally ahhhh we’re in for an emotional roller coaster man. Beyond cruel to make Wilhelm fight his beloved like this.

Man Tappei wrote Regulus TOO well because his misogynistic ass is annoying as FUCK. So satisfying seeing Reinhard beat up on him. He must’ve not understood the whole sword saint thing because why’d he think he could kill someone that’s functionally immortal lmao.

Julius face card!! Prettiest knight. Good to see he and Ricardo in action against gluttony.

THAT ENDING ahhhh Capella infiltrating HQ, only Crusch and Felis there. How’re they gonna get out of it!! Great episode, had a mix of everything from action to world-building and set up. Only up from here

At first, Pricsilia entry was something it was funny! . After concludes that, greed and lust, their bodyguard six-arms and that old man fighting with his wife. That was not important. My man subaru entry and reinhard entry he cooked regulus like he was nothing... Then emilia was kakoi ! subaru and emilia conversation was funny... At last, Lust came to the room where ferys and crusch where In.

Second cour first episode was awesome enjoyed it!

Too many Cuts between the fights. Let them Fight in One piece man. I miss the White Whale fight scene. Why tf there are way Too many Cuts inbetween the scenes.I just couldn't stand it. Other than that, everything was okay. But way too many cuts n jumps inbetween fight smh.

Apart from that it was pretty good. Since invincible is dropping tomorrow, it'll fill my expectations. I'll let Re:zero slip for now, but I hope they won't jump too much, for the remaining eps. 7/10.

Finally, after 2 months Re:ZERO is back! I missed this show so much. Counterattack Part has now begun with full swing.

And it started off with Priscilla's stripping scene. What a way to start the new cour lol.

I like that they didn't change the ED. I actually prefer it cause it's amazing. But I'm a little disappointed they didn't even bother changing the visuals of the OP. That was a bit lazy. But ultimately it's a nitpick. It makes it obvious that originally this season wasn't supposed to be a split cour season. The internal delay was probably a last second decision. And boy am I glad that they decided to take a break because this animation looks INCREDIBLE. Everything from the direction to the characters' expressions are amazing. Literally zero complaints. I love how the scenes cut from one place to another, showing how the events of the episode all take place at the same time.

My favorite scene was probably Reinhard's Divine Blessing of Phoenix. Regulus' reaction was gold lol.

And damn that was one hell of a cliffhanger. I can't believe that the episode was over so quick. I can't wait for next week! Re:ZERO Wednesdays are back!

RE:ZERO W WEDNESDAY IS BACK 🔥🔥🔥😭🙏😭🙏

It has certainly been quite a while since ep 8 where we're left at the precipice of the counter-attack segment of the arc. And without wasting any more breaths... The time is nigh for the Hero of Priestella and his gang of colourful characters to take down all these sins of archbishops. NO EXCEPTIONS.

Imma let White Fox cook for this one, after seeing the portrayal of Subaru's speech a couple of eps ago, I have very high hopes that Subaru shines in the spotlight as blazingly as his intent to win in every single conceivable ways possible!!!

Priscilla dressing scene to start the cour, now that's peak. Could relate to Liliana so much in that scene lol.

The fight's begun in all front. Subaru and Reinhard saved Emilia. Guy really is built different, phoenix's blessing is op. Laughed at Reinhard explaining his sword btw, savage. Also plan I? Just how many plans did they make.

Lust went right after Crusch damn. Garfield???

Meanwhile Puck and Subaru got married while the anime was in break lol.

@And4rilho
It jumps between scenes too frequently, while characters are in mid air, in less than 2 minute of span, it's DEFINITELY NOT amusing at all, too jumbled up. It's better to focus few at a time, rather than scattered shards.
Considering it's the first episode for the cour,I hope it dedicates more time to few scenes at a time, rather than speedrunning the fight scenes.

Finally we get to see the counterattack begin. What a time for Anastasia to barge in though. Just like Pris to take the direct approach though. Reinhard's little trick sure was damm effective. It was damm fun seeing Reinhard use Regulas as a pin ball though. Can't wait to see Lust get surprised next ep as she gets greeted by the welcome party that Anastasia prepared for her. Things sure are beginning in earnest now though.

We are so fucking back ladies and gentlemen.

Oh Priscilla, the woman you are 🤤 it was cool seeing the different POVs of everyone fighting, and the animation in each fight was great. I’m glad they had some extra time to work on it with the midseason break.

Reinhard is just casually broken af 💀 but seeing him beat up on Regulus was so satisfying. What a great return for this series and I’m thrilled for the ride we’re gonna be on for the next 7 weeks.

I swear, this season just came back and the episode ended in no time! We've got hype moments all over the place and that cliffhanger there might just be the most despair inducing situation of the lot, and that's obviously something. I do wonder what that thing that fell on Garfield was, but more importantly, no way Crusch-sama is going to be taken out like that, right?

And boy, Priscilla changing into battle gear was something else! Liliana-chan was way too relatable during that whole segment xD. I know people were saying that we'd be getting a few scenes that you'd expect straight out of a 00's ecchi show but I couldn't really tell what the craze was about. I finally get it now, and completely understandable.

Lovely to hear the Op and ED again! I thought they might change some of the visuals to max out the hype but honestly, I don't think it was overly necessary either.

So back... With Priscilla's honkers
Liliana with literally me reaction.

Split pov of different fronts looks good. But all of them looks in dire situation. Poor Willhem man, seeing your dead wife this way🥲

Except Reinhardt with disgusting powers. I expected a good even matchup with strongest from each side. Regulas isn't even worthy opponent of his sword. Who revives like that.
Atleast my harem king can show Subaru his "levels"

Facts tbf..

As a theme of this season Crusch fans here to suffer more👍

After a two month break, Re: Zero is back and this episode jumps right into it with a surprise that was Priscillia fanservice. Lilliana had the golden front row seat to marvel at Priscilla's body as she swapped outfits. Lilliana's reactions to seeing Priscilla in just her underwear was amusing as heck! XD

With that great fanservice scene done, the episode didn't waste time into getting to the battles and confrontations. Everyone knows that their opponents will be tough, especially Regulus and his tricky invincibility. Subaru and Reinhard will have to work hard to figure out a strategy that can expose Regulus's weakness, but here's hoping that they succeed.

I do feel sorry for Felis and Crusch, though. Capella has found them and she's here to finish off what she started on poor Crusch previously. God only knows how Felis will try and handle this situation without getting himself or Crusch hurt. Hopefully the next episode will answer that question for me.
