So it turns out that in the end the main character will still choose only one girl? And there is no possibility that he will remain with both Rem and Emilia?

However results are mixed because in some cases while Subaru maybe able stop deaths directly, a few of the characters involved will not escaped unscratched. Arc 3 is a good example of this on several levels.

That is, they: get any damage (for example, loss of memory or similar), but in the end everything also exists in history? And there is a possibility that the protagonist will save them.

Well I don't know how much you have watched or read of this series so I will try to avoid revealing too much.

Spoiler for the OT3:

Rem does bring up and say she would be okay with polygamy between her, Subaru and Emilia. Which would not be unusual for the era this is based on. Whether that well happen or not is a different story. I can't say anymore than that.

That is, they: get any damage (for example, loss of memory or similar), but in the end everything also exists in history? And there is a possibility that the protagonist will save them.

It's something along those lines or like grievous injuries. I will mention what happens to a specific character despite Subaru's best without saying his or her name.

Spoiler:

One of Subaru's comrades loses her memories and then is inflicted with a deadly poison-ike curse in another arc with no known cure. It looks horrible too from what it sounds like, as her skin turns blackened like she has the black plague or something.

So Julius had his birthday at the start of this month and Tappei did recent a Q&A on him.

WintryOne translated them, but he only focused on the questions Tappei answered and what seemed the most interesting since there were a lot of them.

• His most valued possession is his ground dragon.
• His quasi-spirits introduce themselves with their given name and his last name.
• The first thing Julius would do upon coming to our world is visit a library.
• He's usually good at picking gifts for people, but when he sends a gift to his brother Joshua, he usually sends something Julius likes himself instead.
• He's mostly vegetarian, so his preferred foods are vegetables and fruits, with tomato (tometo in their terms) as a favorite. He likes ketchup more than mayonnaise.
• His blessing is still active; without it, his spirits would have abandoned him.
• If it actually came to eating curry udon, he'd study it and be able to eat it better than Subaru.
• His current favorability towards Subaru would be eight or nine out of ten, and his communication skill would be around seven out of ten.
• When they were young, Julius saw Reinhard carrying the dragon sword Reid, was embarrassed at having depended on his position in the nobility up to that point, and was motivated to develop his mind and body.
• Julius has received a lot of attention from the women due to being near Reinhard, being in the knights (and also due to Ferris), but he prefers to work for his rewards himself, so he's politely declined everything up to this point.

Kadokawa has big event that's gonna to happen in September:

http://mfbunkoj-fes.com/stage/

Basically Re Zero will have a stage talk in MF Bunko J Summer Festival 2017. For those who are not familiar, MF Bunko J is the publisher and every summer they hold an amine con for their own brand.



Why is it important then? Well, USUALLY they will announce something on the stage, either game, OVA, movie orseason2 (E.g. NGNL announced movie last year). Personally I think it is the best timing to announce s2 as the preparation time takes around 2 years or so according to Tappei. It also explains why the wn update slows down so much or simply because he is too slothful



But playing devil's advocate, I think re zero will have a stage talk any way because of how hot the IP is so maybe there is nothing special to it

[Applehell]

Okay the actual Ch 36 is out (I made mistake in my last post) with both parts 1 and 2 are up.

The last part was pretty damn creepy, but it definitely seems that someone has been in that laboratory recently.

[BlackCockDown]

RIP the guys who read that he was eaten alive yet still thought it was either Ram or Garfiel who killed him.

[Applehell]

Unless either of two suddenly turned out to be cannibals and got small enough borrow through his stomach at blinding speeds... that would have been highly unlikely anyway.

[Applehell]

Arc 4 Ch 37 is up.



Roswaal tho

Spoiler:

Before Subaru’s eyes, Roswaal waved the book left and right in his hand. However, Subaru had no mental capacity to care about such gestures now.
The fact that Roswaal was holding a Gospel same as the ones in the hands of the Witch Cult was indeed shocking. The fact that the one in Beatrice’s hand was also a Gospel, and the fact that the words she said to him at their parting were confirmed, was also shocking.
――But they were not what dominated Subaru’s mind in that moment,

[Subaru: That’s…… a Gospel that records the future?]

[Roswaal: Wi~~thout a doubt. This is the genuine Gospel]

[Subaru: You know…… the future? Right now, everything that is happening now… is in that book……?]

[Roswaal: It i~s written. Although you won’t be able to read it]

Who cares about that.
At this moment, whether Subaru could read it is irrelevant. There was only one significance. Only one single thing he had to ask. That is,

[Subaru: The future, what will happen…… is written… in that book?]

[Roswaal: It doesn’t describe the enti~rety of the world, but it does reveal a portion of the owner’s fu~ture]

[Subaru: That things will become the way they are now…… you knew that beforehand?]

[Roswaal: It took quite a lot of effort to produce the same situ~ation as described, you know? I was rather hoping for a little praise for all my efforts behind the sce~nes]

Subaru could not stop his voice from trembling.
At the source of that trembling, was the seeping of some violent emotion. Just what that emotion was, and at whom it was directed, was immediately obvious―― that is,

[Subaru: If you knew… everything that was going to happen……]

[Roswaal: ――Fuumu]

[Subaru: ――You, knowingly left Rem to die?]





[Roswaal: Rem, who~ would you be refe~rring to?]





[Subaru: ――I’ll KILL YOU!! ROSWAAAAAAAAAAAL!!]

Whew.

[BlackCockDown]

It'll be almost since a month since anon's updates ahhhh

[Applehell]

For anyone still following or is interested in it, the manga adaptation of the 3rd has released chapters 22-23.

TC's released Arc 4 Ch 38 part 1.

In fairness it's not like this guy was ever a stable translator. He could always bugger off at one point and never be heard from again.

[Applehell]

Arc 4 Ch 38 part 2 and 39 part 1 are up at the usual place.

[Subaru: Ah, come to think of it, what are you doing here? I mean, really, for the last three or four days I’ve had time to think about loads of things, and I’m not exaggerating, but you were basically the only person who never crossed my mind]

[Otto: You’re unbelievable, you know that!! To think I’d still be surprised you’d say something like that at this point!!]

[Subaru: Honestly though, I’m the one surprised at how your existence just vanished from my head. The moment I saw you I wasn’t even sure if you were Otto or the appa-seller-uncle, you know]

[Otto: Who’s the appa-seller-uncle!?]

[Subaru: He was kind of a starting point for me. We could also call him MR.SAVEPOINT]

OMG! That meme was real...

[Applehell]

Arc 4 Ch 39 2/2 is here. A really nice one due the bonding moment between Subaru and Otto.

The banter between them is as funny always too.

[Otto: Finding you was all thanks to me, you know. I believe this is where you give me your most sincere praises, so, what do you think, Natsuki-san?]

[Subaru: I’m honestly impressed, and you really helped me. So how did you find me?]

[Otto: Fufufuu~, do you really want to know? You want to know, right? You want to know]

[Subaru: Yeah, I wanna know. You must’ve used your Divine Protection of Anima Whipering to talk to the bugs and lizards and plants in the forest to gather information to find me here, huh]

[Otto: Yes but can you please give me back my sense of superiority!?]

[Sayaka Rei]

For Emilia's birthday ! So Cute !

[Applehell]

Competely unexpected and Kadokawa is holding an event for like they did with Rem too.

Between this, the big announcement in September and vol 14 being released at the same time it's differently going to be Re:0's month.

Truth of Zero vol 6 cover. It's out on Aug 23.

[BladeMancer]

Why did manga choose to follow anime more then LN or WN? I heard the negotiation scene as well as the tree scene were similarly cut, manga has more room to portray these events. Of course I could be wrong, but then there is always that distinct possibility I'm right.

I bet that not a lot of people came seeing as how the fanbase leans more towards Rem. Emilia is just a bundle of wasted potential, you can't do much with her or else it would affect side character development and Subaru development (I absolutely loathe his interactions with Emilia, his memespeak drives me crazy). Once they get past arc 6, there could then be room for further development as there would be no story to deviate from.

The manga isn't following the anime but LN. There isn't much more to negotiation than in any version of story than what you saw outside a couple lines. Some people hypoed that too much.

Please stop equating the fanbase with what some random anons on 4chan think and do, stop getting your information from a site notorious for disinformation for that matter. It's not like there is some zero sum game tribal game within the fandom, both Emilia and Rem are well liked otherwise Kadokawa wouldn't be holding this event. Subaru acts that way every character (just see my example with Otto) in the WN from time to time. I have no idea what mean by wasted potential either she pretty well written and doesn't magically infringe on another character's development. Do people not understand how writing work and thinks Tappei just randomly writes on the fly or something? Was Ram or Otto's taking the place of someone else during their scenes? Of course not and even if they did who were they replacing? Garfiel? Subaru? Betty? Exactly, it's not something you actually qualify and writers don't replace screentime with another. It's just a stupid excuse to randomly bash a character. Anyone could say the same thing about any character they didn't like and would make just as much sense.

[Applehell]

The Elsa and Meili sidestory that came out a few months ago just translated. You can find it on the Re:Zero subbedit since despite being a bonus story, I'm not sure if I can link here.

It's called thread and the title of the short story is called Elsa and Meili, Assassin Sisters Diary

Arc 4 Ch 40 is finally out. It's a whole chapter this time.
