He was captured by Garfield for around three days, so maybe Roswall thought Subaru did leave the sanctuary


is roswaal's dearest wish is for subaru to be completely insane or something else?

Probably it will demand a huge Deus Ex Machina from the plot.
I hope you will not consider this a spoiler :)

You're missing one piece in this chess game. It was even said in this episode what it is (I'm not stating who said it).



Ah in fact there is two different situations concerning highlighting past "foreshadowing" details, when one is spoiler, and the other is not.


Spoiler: call attetion to a detail you ONLY know that it is important because later in the series you learned that it is important. Sometimes the story even create a flashback remembering that moment.

It is the intention of the plot for you to DONT pay attention on that until it is the right moment. So if you reveal it earlier, you completely spoils the "AHHHH was that so" feeling.

This point above surerly is like this, because whatever it is, there were no "foreshadow" mark over it (thanks for not revealing)

-----

The other situation is when the plot immediately put a clear "foreshadow" mark in the scene or dialogue.


The handkerchief scenes was all like this. There is no problem to call attention of "too much distracted" viewers over it.


For a person who already spoiled the anime to himself reading the books, i understand that is very difficult to distinguish one from another, but please try! Just have to respect the intent of the plot. It is easy to read.

No one like to lose the clear foreshadow moments, but also don't wanna to be spoiled.

That was a lot to unpack in one episode.

First, we got Beatrice saving Subaru like a G.

Then we get Emilia I believe at first I thought she was possessed by Satella I believe now she just went insane. Why that is IDK yet.

The random teleportations in this season are starting to be odd.
It was more clear what happened in the LN

I think I can post those screenshots from episode 18 now, since they will make sense now, I think.



If you wonder what happened to Subaru's letter, there is a hint in the previous episode.



One thing is not right.

It seems like Ros book is more "updated" than Beako's version.

If Beatrice's book tells nothing new in years, so that time she could not know anything about Subaru's curse. Unless Roswaal is telling her.

Can we assume that the maniac Ros is so confident to the Spirit in the Library? BUT he has a vow forcing he to dont reveal shit.

Seems like a Plot hole.
When I was watching this in the director's cut, I inferred that Beatrice knows that Roswaal is willing to sacrifice everything for his goal. The first two screenshots refer to that. The other two to her suffering that was revealed in this episode.

The two times it started to snow, Subaru got teleported by the crystal, maybe it has something to do with it.

Fuck, Elsa is goddamn annoying as always. I hate characters who smile in every situation despite being inappropriate. Re:Zero's acute angle smiles gives me PTSD now.

Everyone's finally coming out of their shell and showing their true self, well getting there at least. Beako finally got her wish. I knew she was best girl from the beginning. Still don't know what Roswal's thinking, except that he's aware that Subaru knows everything, like someone from the future going back to the past. His final hour was pretty epic.

Emilia has gone cuckoo in the head. Light novel readers, care to explain or will they explain it themselves later?

DAMN IT! Why can't Emilia get a happy ending for once? This episode literally broke me.
I couldn't see Emilia like this! She is the kindest and most caring person in this world and this is how she is treated?! T_T
She was even abandoned to the rabbits after this? NO!!!!!!!
But man I really wonder, does Subaru even love her? These past episodes seemed more like him abandoning Emilia
completely when she was at her lowest point. Her first trial must be too cruel. This is by far the saddest episode for me in the entire series
This makes me even sadder that Emilia suffered like this EVERY LOOP!

I knew Roswaal was shady but sure wasn't expecting that backstab.

Yandere Emilia is love, that was surely the greatest lap pillow ever and finally got his first kiss!
What I don't understand though is how does Emilia go insane after such a short period, I don't think Subaru was gone to the mansion for long.

Good luck on next reset Subaru!

In the LN, when Subaru is teleported to the Sanctuary, he meets one of Ryuzu copies first and then Garfiel. From him he learns that Emilia basically went insane because she thought Subaru abandoned her. And that she didn't leave the tomb since. The rest is the same as in anime.

BRUTAL EPISODE!
Subaru should be able to make some significant progress with all the information he was been able to gather and through all he was experienced!
Can't wait for the last couple of episode!
I have a feeling that Subaru won't be able to save EVERYONE he wants to!

Roswaal is so ruthless but that is what happen when you have one goal/desire and you are willing to do anything to achieve it. Roswaal wants Subaru to become like him. I wonder the path Subaru will choose.

Crazy Emilia is the best Emilia.

My wild imagination want that kiss at the end completely heal Subaru, so we continue the story with everyone dies and Emilia lost her sanity. Thta will be so fucked up. But then again this is Re Zero where plot armor are so prominent.

We'll start over again next week, with everything is in Subaru's hand.

Okay, hold up! What a cliffhanger that was! God, that was possibly one of the best horror moments I've seen from medium. Music, filter and the incredible VA from Goddess Takahashi-san, I've only but praises.

Beatrice's wish finally comes to light and fruition in the same episode, who the heck is Elsa? I honestly can't imagine how devastating it must've been for Subaru to go through all that. And that casual poke to the eye, definitely didn't see that coming.

And finally, Roswaal's true colors are out! Boy, that was quite something. All that just for the beating and the talk, that's not normal alright. Seriously though, why the beating? Sacrificing himself in the end for the greater good according to him, I wonder what his ultimate wish is.

One of the comments above mention how Roswaal might be the one who hired Elsa and the chibi-suke, and after this episode that wouldn't surprise me one bit. Does make sense though.

Whatever the case, just two more episodes to go now! Can't wait! It's honestly been a pretty shaky season but this is certainly heading to an interesting conclusion. Will all the hints thrown at us unravel itself and fix the puzzle, we'll have to see (probably in Mar. however lol).

Thankfully he did'nt, otherwise he would not learn how to get beaten the crap out by Ros maniac.

So it was something pretty normal (though normal isn't enough to explain her insanity). I thought about that at the beginning but was like, "There's no way it could be something as simple as that?" because it's Re:Zero, anything can happen. I thought it was a side-effect from the trial, some weird magic or worst case scenario, being replaced by Satella since they look and sound similar. And that glint in her eyes look unnatural as well.

The random teleportations in this season are starting to be odd.


With this episode, it's implied ALL the teleportation were made by Beatrice, indirectly helping Subaru.

First she sent Subaru to meet Echidna after telling him that he would get all the answers in the sanctuary ( which Echidna can only have )

Second she saved Subaru in the last minute from Garfiel.

Third she teleported him again to save him from Elsa.

All those three happened using the crystal to teleport him.

Well that was terrifying. Despite my mixed feelings with First Season, this one has improved on many things, yet, I still see people that barely understand what's going on spreading hate on things they don't understand. Oh yeah, I'm on MAL, that explains things.

Oh well, can't ask too much.

Man, I feel like there's going to be a huge cliffhanger, but oh well, if I'm getting quality this season, I'm up to wait for January to receive more quality content, that is, if part 2 doesn't ruin what this second season have achieved.

It's easy to bring the blame on someone for hesitating, but have you ever tried being on his shoes? So many shit happening and then he learns that Beatrice wants to be set free from her imprisoned life, which basically asks him to kill her. How do you think someone like Subaru would react? "Oh yeah, you want to die, pretty neat. That aside, Roswall told me to tell you I'm that person"

Things doesn't work like that.
