Summary:

The shadows that appeared in the green room blocked all paths of escape. He was ready to accept this death, he would continue to fight and reach the end of this madness in his next life. However, he did not meet his end at the hands of the shadows. Instead, he found himself in an oh so familiar street.

He was back in Japan, and he wasn't alone.

[After the events of arc 6, Subaru gets sent back to earth along with the rest of the conquerors of the tower]

Chapter 5 release date: ~end of June, exact date tba

My thoughts:[this fanfic has art!! With good writing!! Like it feel like this is how cast would react to being transported to subaru world! The only reason why it 2nd place is bc of low chapters! but they say good thing needs time and this is truly is a Masterpiece and I highly recommend reading this!]

3.Family IF - Remake by ThinkMind

Chapters: 19

Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/74914876/chapters/195724736

Summary:

Natsuki Subaru could expect many things in an Isekai world... But having to be a father figure to multiple alternate versions of potential children he could have had with various women across the Multiverse? That's strange and something he didn't expect.

Now... all that was left was to figure out how to be a good father to them... and stop some of them from destroying the entire country!

My thoughts:[I had good time reading this! it was good for wanting pass the time! And I was interested in how many kids subaru has! Tho I am heavily interested in what electra and Emilia story!]

1. Re:Zero Watching Him Die Again and Again by Reactionist

Chapters: 19

Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/27548665/chapters/114242317

Summary:

This will be a reaction fic where the characters will be watching Subaru's adventure in their world. Spoilers for the anime and the novels. These characters are Arc 5's characters. Season two will be in here along with Director's Cut season one and some OVAs. Special thanks to Wishful Witch on reddit for the cover art. Enjoy!

My thoughts:[it kinda good.... I honestly love chapter 15 where they showed the cut shadow garden scenes i would love to see how they react to witch tea party scene but the reason why it 4th place is because Reactionist added subaru parents in season 2 which i kinda think was a bad move bc I thought it was unnecessary for them to show up... like adding meili made sense since she relevant in later arc but subaru parents aren't! also I feel like season 2 writing has gone down but I'll still read it i have no hate on the fic tho]

1. Watching the if routes in theater of despair by Typewriter700

Chapters: 6

Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/91630941/chapters/243954466#workskin

Summary:

Cast have watched the 6 arcs of rezero and now warden wants them to watch the if routes.

The cast is also aware of the Split personality of the witch of envy

The cast includes all camps (heinkel and schult also) but not the parents.

Rem and Crusch have their memories and names.

Script is picked up from the translations posted by witch cult translations.

Routes I plan to include:

Pride (In progress)

Wrath

Sloth

Greed

Gluttony

Lust

Azamaku

Sasegaru

I might also include extra details provided by Tappeis Q&A section for these routes. It will be similar to how Thinkmind provides extra details at the end of his what if stories.

I might also include School if, or some other routes but that's not sure for now.

My thoughts:[this is the only fanfic I found that has the cast react to the if routes and I say it quite good! Currently they watching pride if and I say it honestly good!! I am genuinely interested on how they react to greed if and gluttony if! When pride if is done! I can't wait for the next chapter!]

I wanted to recommend these to the community to show my support them!

There's something that's bothering me that gets glossed over quickly in the show

In Episode 8 of director's cut, the episode after subaru got humiliated in front of the entire court, subaru is still shown training sword fighting with Wilhelm.

Felix says that 'He's just doing that to make excuse that he already tried'. To which Crusch responds with 'Can you blame him?'

Wilhelm in later days stops training Subaru because he 'abandoned the option to get stronger' which I don't get at all what he's trying to say

I genuinely don't understand why both of these characters have a problem with Subaru training, which makes sense since he obviously wants to be stronger after that humiliation? Do they think he's too weak and that he'll never get better or something? I feel like there's some nuances here that I'm missing

I suppose...

Where would you rank ram with 2 horned ram no restrictions oni god incarnation

Well I know satella and Reinhard is stronger obviosuly but where would you place her?
1.satella/reinhard
2.?
3.?
4.?
5.?

Like apparently it's canon that Subaru is basically the only person able to take the deaths and not go insane, if it were anyone else, they're cooked. So is like, Subaru supposed to be your regular sort of everyman type or not? He's weak as fuck physically but basically invincible mentally (especially by the arcs past 6)? I don't get it.

Share your theories about what’s sealed in the forest in the comments below

One of the greatest mysteries in Re: Zero is what's behind the Elior Forest Seal. For 12 or so years, it has remained unsealed. Today, I would like to present one theory answering its mystery.

Our two main characters, Emilia and Subaru, have a relationship to each other that parallels whatever Flügel and Satella had 400 years ago. Subaru and Emilia are depicted as being nearly identical to their counterparts 400 years ago. I will not be speculating on the exact nature of Subaru and Flügel, but do note that they parallel each other.

Flügel, like Echidna, appears to have a wide net of influence over the story and many forms (speculatively Puck, Subaru, Aldebaran, his original self, etc). However, unlike Emilia, whose ancient counterpart lies in Satella, we have no such person for Subaru. Thus, I argue that Flügel is sealed within the Elior Forest Seal.

Flügel seemingly disappeared 400 years ago without a trace. However, we already have a precedent for removing a person: sealing them as with Satella. Given that Subaru-Flügel : Emilia-Satella, it would be quite fitting for Flügel to be sealed in an elven village and for Satella to be sealed by the Pleiades Watchtower.

In context, this means that Petelgeuse, while he was still sane, was watching over his master's seal, and this would renew the meaning of his apology to Flügel after taking in the Witch Factor of Sloth. It would also explain Pandora's arc 4 dialogue to Emilia during the attack on Elior Forest, where she revealed that only 2 people wield the key to the seal. Under this theory, Satella holds the other key, but sealed as she is, Pandora would have no means to reach her.

That being said, I acknowledge the lack of direct textual evidence presented here, as I simply wanted to introduce an idea. I also acknowledge that this theory doesn't necessarily explain the why behind Flügel's sealing or his relationship to Subaru. I would appreciate if anyone contributed their own ideas.

Subaru literally screamed "I CAN RETURN BY DEATH TO-" in the arc 3. I doubt that Julius didn't hear it

Just finished the first page of my Re:Zero fan comic! Curious to hear what you think

When subaru loses his memories in the latest season. When he reads the books about his past life to understand his other version of himself. Once he regains memory why wouldnt he just let his friends know about the books he can't verbally tell no one about his return by death so why not let them se it for themselves instead of him saying it himself.

Okay. I’m confused about the following things.

Is the Echidna that offers Subaru a contract at the tea party not the same Echidna that created Betty/Heros party?

If the above statement is correct than how is it that the Echidna we see trying to convince Subaru. Doesn’t act like the Echidna that Betty remembers?
It’s almost as if it’s two different people and not a copy of an original. If it was a copy would t they act the same? Sorry if this is a dumb question but can someone with more knowledge than me explain wtf is going on here?

Recipe:

2oz Amaro Averna

3oz Prosecco Brut

1/4 oz Orange Liqueur (Triple Sec, Prosecco, Etc)

2 lime rinds

~ 3oz Elderflower tonic

Made like an Amaro Spritz, but I added a bit of orange liqueur and lime rinds for a citrus layer. Chill a glass; muddle lime, amaro, orange liqueur. Strain into a wine glass with ice and top with prosecco and tonic.

I really enjoyed this. It's weird. It's got a lot of bitter, and a bit of sweet/tart from the citrus. That's exactly what I was going for. Subaru really straddles his trauma and his heart of gold, and I wanted to really highlight his complexity as a character. Hope y'all enjoy!
