What are the odds that the quality of the new arcs improve now that we're finally done with Vollachia namek?
Also I want to marry this cute oni! Subaru is such a luck faggot
>>269224239I just want more of the Witch Cult, we still barely know anything about them or why they respect Pandora or why there were divided factions.We also don't know what their actual doctrine is, knowing that the Satella worship is just a public facade.
>>269224480I wonder if Tappei will include some actual worldbuilding to the Cult or keep them a mystery. I too would like to know what Petelgeuse did before going insane and what they want.I'm hopeful with Capella and Pandora, most answers will be given provided he doesn't ruin it like he did Vollachia.
>>269224239What exactly is Namek slang for? Why did it catch on?
>>269224662Its when a series gets stuck for a long time in a setting which is felt like a slog by the watchers. In DB the case was Namek arc, in Re:Zero we got arc 7 and 8.Funny, at first I was very excited to know Vollachia and to know what exists outside of Lugnica, but somehow Tappei managed to make Vollachia and Vincent be boring.
>>269224725That's what I thought, but the Namek arc is about the same length as the Android and Buu arcs. Is it really that infamous? It's a far cry from the Shinobi World War or Wano.
>>269224239Best girl died, I have no reason to continue reading it desu
Sex with my wives Rem and Ram
>>269224983I think its because little happened there
Just about to finish arc 5 for the LNAfterwards should I continue with the LN or read the WN for arc 6? I keep seeing people say the WN is better but I prefer paperback to reading on a screen
>>269225155I'd die over and over for a change at the legendary oni shimaidon!
>>269226093*chanceDamn I'm drunk with Rem's love
>>269225678>He read the LNYou fucked up. Despite what leddit says arc 5 is better in the WN.
>>269226469Everything is better in the WN. Its not washed out and sterilized for normalfag consumption.
I want to become one with Rem!
>>269226802Rem is love, I hope she recovers her memories soon
I wonder, why hasn't there ever been any traitors in the Witch Cult? You'd think that a secretive organization with such loose goals would atleast have some people who would seek to expose their secrets, is there anything that actually prevents anyone from just leaking out all information? Or is it a "when you join it's forever" kind of deal?
>>269228095Agreed, I guess one reason is that they are all too scared about what the Cult would do to them. I know if I was in that position would try to remain as close to Reinhard at all times as possible.
>>269228095my theory is that pandora somehow prevents the possibility of anyone betraying the cult, either through intimidation or with her authority of vainglory
>>269224725It was because he did nothing at all to make the characters memorable or likable as the OG cast. The sad part is all he had to do was minimize the fodder and do the same process he did in the other arcs but I guess it was too difficult for him all of a sudden
>>269224983The Namek arc is generally regarded as the best arc in DB
>>269228483I think he got bogged in the war and forgot that people read for the characters, not for the battles.
>>269224239Pretty good desuLatest chappy for those who missed it: https://ncode.syosetu.com/n2267be/696/
To marry these 2 cute oni would be heavenly
>>269228864Thanks emiliachad.
>>269227692You've been saying this ever since 2015, a decade ago.Just let it go anon
>>269228864
>>269229123Can Tappei really dare not restore Rem's memories? Especially now that Spica can access the HoM?>>269229205Just ignore the troll, anon.
>>269228864Based and WNpilled
Tappei truly shines when he writes these 2 together
>>269229667So never
>>269224239>that we're finally done with Vollachia namek?Oh you poor sweet summer child.
>>269229684Very rarely sadly. Mostly in arc 3 which is the main reason Re:Zero is popular in the first place. Giving "From Zero" to Rem cemented her as the best heroine in this series.>>269229707No, please no more! This is torture!
>>269226563This picture always disgusts me.
>>269229684Arc 8, chapter 23 was very good. When does Subaru get an emotional shitstorm with a character like that other than with Rem?Also arc 7, chapter 30. It caused huge uproar in the fanbase and broke Subaru's mind, only Rem is capable of that. What other character has done that to him other than Petelgeuse which also involved Rem.
>>269229919Why? I feel a huge need to cover Rem in my seed and paint her insides white
Can't wait for more villian Otto. Wonder how they'll pull that off.
>>269224239I stopped at the crossdressing arc. Did anything good happen yet?
>>269230124He murders Spica and hides the body in one of his oil barrels.
>>269228864Thanks WN reader
>>269224480>Sloth: Defeated>Pride: Defeated>Wrath: Captured/Defeated>Gluttony: Defeated/Corrected>Lust: At large>Pride: UnknownThe Witch Cult is a non threat atm. Maybe Lust can gain allies in Felt (Royal connection) and Crusch (Bribe for Aids cure), but don't think Tappei will go this route. They're basically doomed, unless Pandora knows a way to mass produce Sin Archbishops.
>>269229967Honestly it looks like a very mutilated tranny's neovagina and cock is coming out of her mouth.
>Subaru: [My map, is my heart. And my compass, is the two of you. ――Spica, Rem.]
>>269228723The fights themselves are good but they only reach their full potential when it’s between characters you actually care about and the development for the cast that occurs in them. Besides the battle choreography and stakes weren’t even decent in the last two arcs
>>269229865>No, please no more! This is torture!They still haven't left yet. I doubt they'll even leave this volume. Buckle up, buttercup.
>>269230468Will waifufags finally drop it
>>269230312That'll be based and I won't have to hear more about Subaru's retarded camp decisions almost always succeeding. Though Otto also wants to get rid of the rest of the royal selection so Emilia can win, so he'll probably not stop with Spica.
>>269230195Priscilla died. Fuck Priscilla.
>>269229960Im glad he got his lick back she deserves it and he already had heated arguments with Emilia and Beatrice
>>269230547That just makes Otto a sociopathic retard for going against Chadbaru’s schemes
>>269230789Subaru is a retard, a pedophile, and a tranny.
>>269226469>>269226563Can you give me legitimate examples of why the LN is worse? I'll print and bind it if there's actually a good reason to
>>269230124>>269230312Ram is going to help if Spica doesn't fix her shit.
>>269230417I didn't know that there were two Sin Archbishops of Pride in the Witch Cult
Would you fuck a Sin Archbishop even if she is evil or insane?
>>269231548No, but I'd fuck her kids even though they're evil and insane.
>>269231548pffft no, none of the female archbishops in the witch cult are hot, not even capella, i dont find her attractive, and rui is cute, but i wouldn't fuck her, and sirius is ugly
>>269230789Otto's suggestions are sometimes reasonable from the point of view of someone who doesn't know about rbd. The whole Vollachia saga could've killed them all had Subaru lost his powers. Otto thinks it's best to avoid such dangers, especially since he's (probably) not as powerful as the majority of the team and has a history of running away from danger. With regards to Spica, we don't know if she'll stay in this babbling childlike state forever. Perhaps one day she'll snap and kill the rest of the camp, that is a reasonable hypothesis. Also, Subaru is an idiot for keeping a sin archbishop so publicly. In regards to Otto, he doesn't like to act without a plan. He calculates whether the action is reasonable and would guarantee the camp's safety. For now, he's at the minimum being cautious around Spica. Him killing her would be completely dependent on the circumstances. It doesn't seem like he'll make sociopathic and unsubstantiated rash decisions because he wants the camp, especially Subaru, to still trust him.Perhaps Otto can snap and act irrationally. But from current evidence, that doesn't seem to be the case—the latest misfortune he wished on his political rivals happened without his involvement. So he shouldn't be blamed for thinking of going against Subaru's scheming. Otto can become a villain, but a calculating conniving villain, not a sociopathic retard kind.
>>269231548I like Capella, but she's too small for my taste, she's even smaller than Felt, being only 145 cm in height, but she can of course circumvent that through her Authority.
Is Rem still a bitch
>>269231548Yes, I would
>>269232002Rem was always a bitch
>>269232095How would fucking Regulus's body feels like knowing that it's been on stasis for 100 years?
>>269230437What chapter of the WN is this?
>>269232095Is there any way to do that without him killing you?
>>269230417There is no such thing is a non-threatening witch cult. Lust is an obstacle begetting obstacle, the confinement of Wrath probably won't be permanent, and Pride remains of unbeknownst force, while Gluttony is yet eradicated. A ticking time bomb to be sure. 4 arcs remain unexplored, 4 archbishops remain.
>>269224239Vollachia wasn't as bad as you have been picturing it, although non of the events add up to the main plot. Can you really say the events weren't good? Garfiel vs Kafma, King of Thorns, Cecilus and Al loops, the unending loops with Olbart... It surely fails in pacing and lacks emotional connection with Subaru like the previous arcs but I wouldn't call it bad, I feel like an adaptation would make it better which is not usual in RZ
>>269232197Arc 8, 74
>>269231772The problem with Otto is that past arc 4 nobody follows his plans or orders anymore, like does anybody care about him?
>>269233047>although non of the events add up to the main plot.And what is 'the main plot'? Because one of the candidates just permadied and that's more work on the main plot than anything else that's ever happened.
>>269230968Regulus in the LN: Disney princess ice skating ripped off directly from FrozenRegulus in the WN: Swings a water dragons corpse around like a rag doll making it rain blood on the city and turning the drops of blood in to a carpet bombardment
>>269233123The main plot is Subaru's development. Fuck the royal candidates, we all know Felt will end up there.
>>269230968In Arc 6 there are two characters referred to with the exact same proper noun and they removed the distinction symbols around one of them. Fan correction uses Name and «Name» to recreate the distinction in the original work.
>>269233136>Swings a water dragons corpse around like a rag doll making it rain blood on the city and turning the drops of blood in to a carpet bombardmentWas this cut?
>>269233190Yes. In the LN he splashes water around like a retard in throwing a tantrum. In the WN he goes to the top of a tower and uses the blood of the water dragons while Subaru does parkour through the buildings getting destroyed by the blood rain.NO FUCKING GAY ASS ICE SKATING. It's like the editor saw how popular Frozen was in Japan and said "Hey lets make Emilia do that!"
>>269233156And how did Subaru not develop in 7/8 considering he had a bunch of identity stuff to work through?
>>269230968LN has less violence, Subaru is less of a scumbag early on, removed almost all of Subaru's schizo rage moments in arc 4 including the first time he tried to murder someone in cold blood.Literally one of the best chapters in the entire series was cut because it made Subaru seem less heroic and more of psychopath.
>>269233264>>269233136in the WN Regulus also fits the description of an utterly average person, it's all Ootsuka's fault that he looks regal instead of what he's meant to be.
>>269224239
I need more Dona
>>269233326Removed most of the witches scenes. Removed almost all of Daphne. Removed Subaru eating his own fingers. Removed creepy lab.Removed Petra murder mansion horror fuckfest loop. FUCK THE LN!!!!!!!!!!
>>269233264Yeah, I remember that, I just didn't know it was changed in the LN because I've only read the WN a couple of years ago. Saddens me the anime will adapt the shit version then.
>>269230195Not really. Tappei killed Priscilla to avoid her overshadowing Moblia, so there's that.
>>269233287No, and in reality I find it actually shit. All the development he had in Arc 4 was thrown into the trash can just because "I'm a kid I forgot", like what the fuck? Is this the point now? In arc 9 he will regret killing himself hundreds of thousands of times because he was a kid and didn't remember it?And the hero shit is even worse. "Oh I'm a Kid I forgot about it and now your words won't stop me" like fuck. Both the developments with Rem and Satella were shitted on for a cheap ass shota. It's in my opinion the worst decision tappei ever took, cheap resolves to make him use RBD freely. The story wouldn't progress if it wasn't like that though, because he set up Vollachia to be as deadly as possible, but I don't feel like it was the best approach. Vollachia is great by itself, but the main characters there just don't really feel right
>>269233790>I didn't like it so it didn't happenYeah, not how it works retard.
the movie worth watching? s2 was boring
>>269233848Which movie? The 2 OVAs? Which one? Memory Snow is fun, if you didn't like S2 Frozen Bonds is basically just more of that.
>>269233877the main movie
>>269229205
>>269233790Remember the last time RBD had an impact? Like when Todd was killing him in Guaral and he was like "wtf is going on?".
>>269234120400+ chapters later and has this even been mentioned or referenced once?
>>269234190400+ chapters later have Rem and Subaru kissed once?
>>269233106He does have some development of his conniving nature in arc 5 with the reveal of him hiding the book of wisdom, but arc 6 is largely devoid of him (perhaps on purpose due to the setting). Arc 7 I can't recall if there's anything either, was the Vincent discussion in this arc? Arc 8 is when he has that argument with Roswaal about Spica, with Arc 9 hinting at a more villainous role. Short character-focused stories do feature him more prominently, and talk about how self-sacrificial he is to protect the Emilia camp to the point Garfiel jokingly talks about how he likes pain. But I agree he hasn't been given enough of a spotlight to shine through, but his development was gradual and definitely hinted at in the long run. The short stories spell his more villainous nature out more clearly. For instance, that Bittersweet Trade Log story in which he, in the pre-subaru timeline, purposefully murdered some bad guys and convinced his acquaintance that it was an accident.
>>269234120Oh wow! the famous Arc 4 kiss and after this kiss Emilia and Subaru finally became a couple and Subaru most certainly did not have nightly visits to Rem, we also DEFINITELY never got Felt commenting on how shit Subaru and Emilia's relationship is and of course after the events of Arc 4 Emilia finally became a worthy candidate for the throne.
>>269234241He visited her bedside every single night secretly at midnight for over a year so who knows what he got up to with her. The word the novel uses specifically uses is tryst so...
>>269234241They have a daughter, what does Emilia have besides an empty head and shitty father?
>Emilia: [I came here to meet my treasured knight… No, everybody’s treasured knight.]What did she mean by this?
Will there ever be more anime seasons to catch up with this?
>>269234418Yeah but don't expect to see an ending for at least 10-15 years.
>>269234374I like how when it comes to fighting her enemies, her campaign for the throne and romance Emilia is a complete retard but suddenly when she imagines herself being cucked she turns into Oppenheimer.
>>269230124>>269230312He murders Spica, rapes Petra after cracking under her teasing but the rape made Petra go doki doki for him, unironically it's actually funny that Roswaal of all people told Otto to cool off.
>>269234614Otto is gay and Q&A confirmed he'll never lose his virginity.
>>269234284I know, those nightly visits were something else. What would Ram do if she found Subaru abusing Rem's body during his nightly visits?
>>269234731Kill him probably. She got pissed off when she caught him holding Rem's hand in arc 6.
>>269234770And what would a Rem with her memories do if she realized Subaru was fucking her body to "release his stress" when she was comatose?
>>269234859I remember people joking before she woke up that she'd be disappointed that he didn't do anything.
Creampie Felt and giving her a baseball team's worth of children.
Re:Zero will be 20 years old by the time the story finish
>>269235943I'll be 60 years old by then, senile and threatening kids in their hoverbikes to get out of my pod. And I'll keep rambling about Rem and Subaru's romance and how beautiful From Zero was.
>>26923647920 years and it never topped parts 2 and 3. I believe it, but it’s not a good thing.
>>269236535It was just on another level. Besides being a Remfag I'm also a Sakurafag, and only have seen similar levels of romance in Fate/Stay Night's Rain Scene. Its not easy to write romance and Tappei managed to hit gold with From Zero. A shame he preferred to milk it to death instead of building from it. He could have made Rem and Subaru's romance the stuff of legends.
Will season 3 rely on chibis again to explain important lore so they can give emilia more screen time to show off her inflated chest?
>>269229104>>269229574>>269230329No problem anons. Us emiliachads gotta keep the WN alive in these threads.
>>269233611Fwiw the new director did use the wn version of Liliana's introduction.A cope considering otherwise they'd have to explain her side story, but it is still a possibility that there might be more changes.
>>269234938I can see her being disappointed, given that she hoped that Subaru would rape her in arc 3.
>>269234128Haven't they've been foreshadowing the absolute shit out of Subaru's memory busting back in one go and breaking his brain? How is he in arc 9, actually? Did it not happen? I've been too busy to read it yet.
>>269235943Not too sure about that desu, iirc Tappei seemed adamant on finishing it before another decade, almost seemed a little annoyed about how much was left desu.I bet he'd start dumping it fast if it got close to 20 years.
Screw demihumans, go court a noblewoman in Lugunica instead, it will be better for your offspring's heritage.
>>269236770Probably
>>269237702>noblewoman>Crusch>noblewoman?
>>269237702Tbf, the only demihumans who can be hot are the Onis and Elves to be frank, otherwise the majority are furries or whateverSo yeah human women seem largely the option here lol
>>269237758Most of them are kemonomimis if that, and some aren't even that. Only random background beastgirls would qualify as furries.
>>269230124Oh shit Otto becomes a villain? I love this nigga like you wouldn't believe.
>>269237834Not so far, really, but he keeps angling like he'll be antagonistic because he's getting tired of certain people being retarded.
>>269234120based and subarupilled
>>269237758The hottest girls are Minerva, Elsa and Priscilla and they're all humans. Don't believe S3's lies about Emilia's tits.Humans are superior.
>>269237702Crusch is my second choice if I was unable to marry Rem.
theory: subaru is in a coma and the rezero world is his dream which mean that every person he meets is a manifestation of his subconscious
>>269237960My theory is that Subaru's dad was isekai'd before him when he was hit by a car, this was mentioned offhand in arc 4.He split in two, one stayed on Earth and the other became Flugel.
>>269237960It's been floated but the author talks about his parents in the real world and knows something of the mechanical differences between the real world and isekai world and such.
Has anything come up from the king candidates are all of royal blood theory?
>>269238045No, and it's probably Anastasia who runs it the hardest. Like you can try and imply some stuff with her name, but we're talking hundreds of years back would there be any sort of "kingdom" out there for her to be descended from and at that point like half the population is likely just as descended from royalty due to how descendants work.
>>269238086Throwing shit at the wall, what if she's part Gusteko royalty? Tbf it would fit the name and her winter ish outfit.
>>269238130We don't know shit about them, so anything is pretty much possible.
The author's waifu insert was overshadowed by Rem who was a more likable character so he killed her off.change my mind.
>>269238615I'm a Remfag and I'll always be, but damn if I wouldn't dare put my relationship with Rem in jeopardy for a dirty one night stand with Ram. That anus is just so inviting!
>>269238130Problem is that there'd have to be more to it than just "she's got blood I guess." There'd probably be consequences to it, like with Priscilla.Other than being weak there isn't much there at the moment when it comes to what could connect her to some plot in Gusteko.
>>269234285>>269234320>they never kissed Thought so. lol
Isn't Subaru an M?
>>269238841>Her superpower is having glass bones and a broken magic buttholeSometimes you just roll a 1 in character creation
>>269234320Stonking huge tits
Rem and Subaru are the most romantic couple ever
>>269238691It's either that or Rem fixed/saved Subaru so hard that he had to drop a bridge on her or there wouldn't be a story anymore.
>>269239630>Rem fixed/saved Subaru so hardShe did. I wouldn't be surprised if Subaru bred Rem by arc 6 if Tappei didn't use the amnesia hack
>>269240036I watched S1 with some buddies, and one of them swears that 18 should have been the last episode. Not because the rest of the show kinda sucks, but because it just solves Subaru so much and it's such an emotional peak that the story might as well end right there. I don't really agree with that, but I certainly understand the sentiment.
>>269240106It truly is another step for Subaru and imagine how good it would have been if it dealt with Subaru and Rem's relationship against all odds. I wonder how arc 4 would have changed with Rem supporting Subaru in Sanctuary (and meddling with his relationships by pushing to become the second wife).
>>269239336extraordinarily subarupilled. that's pretty much why she won as best girl
>>269234320>they have a daughterWho's gonna tell him?
Is it wrong is this made me really horny?
>>269240143I dunno, as an animeonly I was already checked out by then. S2 was pretty bad, for the most part. And I don't know if Rem being there would have even helped; she was around for the whale hunt in S1 and that was still shit.>>269240275Yes, but I get it.
>>269240143That would've sucked all of the fun out of that arc, why even watch a schizo looping show at that point.
>>269240288>>269240292Subaru could still have struggled to keep her alive. I think Roswaal would have accounted for her in his plans more actively to break Subaru, and she would have also acted against his plans and maybe Subaru's too. That'd be funAlso how she and Dona would have been like. There's also the fear of Rem if she realized Subaru is a time traveler who may leave her for another timeline. Maybe there would have been the conflict of Subaru wanting to reset and Rem being afraid of losing him so keeping him alive against his will.
>>269240402It would completely fuck over the entire deal with Echidna.Subaru's character arc was *specifically * him going nuts over not being able to save Rem despite having rbd and slowly getting tricked into Echidna's offer *because he felt isolated *.Rem being there ruins the whole point, wpuld fuck up Subaru's character arc, would make Otto basically useless, would fuck up Ram's arc, and would cut out so many kino scenes.
Waifufags don't give a shit about arcs lmao
>Rem finding out Subaru looping that earlyIsn't that just SummerTime Rendering?
>>269240499Maybe he wouldn't go to Sanctuary then, that's why I wonder how it would change Roswall's plans.
>>269240674Rbd.
>>269241032I wish I had RbD and married Rem
>>269229205Looks like the stimulus is still quite effective!
>>269241144Woah there remditter
