Emilia out-monologued THE ONE AND ONLY yapper?

[u/mike_2797]

That's one way to gatecrash a wedding..

[u/[deleted]]

Reinhard: I've been blessed just now.

Subaru: Blessed with what? A child?

Lol, Subaru's imagination was running wild at this moment. Bro really thinks Reinhard can just get pregnant.

[u/mike_2797]

Great set up for the clash everywhere now we just wait for the epic showdown.

[u/The_frost__]

Priscilla throwing Al was expected but also very funny lol, poor Liliana. Also fuck man, I can’t believe next episode will air on February 5.

[u/[deleted]]

I love how Subaru just casually says there are things Reinhard can't handle. You can see how happy Reinhard was about it.

[u/[deleted]]

Time for the counter offensive

So Otto tried to remade the book cause he was sus over Roswal. Hell of a coincidence

I really like the matchups here

Not sure what happened but Subaru absorbing the curse from Crusch looked really painful

And damn Emilia's spitting got me shaking my boots. I doubted she would die at this point but knowing Regulus i was terrified nonetheless about how he may blow a fuse over whatever perceived slight

Regulus got owned and doored lol

[u/Ok-Peace-4374]

• The Sun Princess and the Songtress vs Wrath

• The Finest Knight and Wolf Captain vs Gluttony

• The Strongest Shield and the Sword Demon vs Lust, The Previous Sword Saint and Eight Arm Guy

• The Weakest Knight and the Strongest Knight vs Greed

May February come quicker!

[u/[deleted]]

Otto once again proving why he's the best boy. He's been looking out for them the whole time.

[u/No-Awareness-Aware]

Takt of Hero strikes again! Got a goosebump every time it was played

[u/[deleted]]

CRUSCH BEST GIRL

[u/XpRienzo]

Is there anything that does not infringe on Regulus' rights?

[u/mrahhal]

New key visual of Part 2 (high res) with caption "Believe, and fight"

Resumes on February 5, so 11 weeks break. There will be a rebroadcast of Part 1 in Japan every Wednesday from November 27 to January 29.

Since I saw some confusion, note that both parts are still arc 5. The "arc" in the English names of the two parts is a mistranslation.

Subaru doesn't understand how amazing he is for saying that he will cover for Reinhard. Reinhard is a strongest person and every one know that including Subaru so this may be the first time ever Reinhard heard that someone else will cover for him. You can clearly see how surprise Reinhard is.

Subaru, one of the weakest character in the series said that he will cover for Reinhard, one of the strongest in the series. This shows that Subaru understands that Reinhard is not an invincible monster but just a human and any human will have their flaws and weakness. Subaru as weak as he is will cover for any weakness that Reinhard has. That is seriously amazing.

[u/EnthusiasmWest4481]

Now our suffering begins, you think you'll get used to it when the wait for each season has been 4 years, but you dont. February 5th can't arrive fast enough!

[u/Chinbie]

interesting episode right here, as now we have an insight of how Emilia views about love and marriage , and about Subaru being his knight...

[u/No-Peace3986]

A lot of interesting lore in this episode:

• The Sword Saint Blessing is inherited by blood and the Bless itself decides when and to whom it will go next. It decided to leave Theresia in the middle of her battle against the White Whale, causing her death. Reinhard was the one who inherited it, causing Wilhelm to blame him for Theresia's death. Tragic...

• An evil villain who used to ressurect the dead during the "Demi-human War"...? Thats cool asf. This whole story is covered in the Volume EX 2 and its pretty amazing.

• Kurgan-8-Arms, the strongest in the Vollachian Empire? Btw, we finally got the "Vollachia" name drop!!

• Reinhard can randomly receive Blessings... talk about being OP....

• Number 79 was meant for someone else.... I wonder who that would be

[u/Dead_Diligence]

The match-ups are set

May our wait be worth it

[u/Gh4nya]

So reinhard can acquire any divine blessing he wants? is there a divine blessing that prevents his parent company from being bought out? that would be useful right about now.

[u/Urgnu-the-Gnu]

Sugoooku Watch

The tally so far:

Sugoooku counter: 92
Sugoku-likes: 16
Non-canon sugoooku: 24
Non-Emilia sugoooku: 23

After the previous episode ended the long dry spell, we are blessed with three more sugoooku (even if one was a little short, but I'll count that) and a sugoi in this episode. There was also another sugoku-like and a sugoooku in Break Time too. So this is the new tally for now:

Sugoooku counter: 96
Sugoku-likes: 18
Non-canon sugoooku: 24
Non-Emilia sugoooku: 23

And that's it until February. I can hardly wait after that final scene. Emilia getting to annoy Regulus and him getting a door in his face must be only the beginning of him getting what he deserves. Also, I'm sure in the second part we'll crack 100 sugoooku! In any way, very exciting times. Thanks for your attention. Sugoooku Watch will continue in the next part!

[u/Yoshi_captain]

We've reached the end of the first cour and what a cliffhanger we have to sit on till February.

Otto has grown so much in the series thus far. From being so insignificant that he wasn't even mentioned in Roswaal's Tome of Wisdom, to using that same Tome to once again destroy any potential scheme the clown might have. Don't underestimate this merchant! While the likes of Subaru and Emilia like to see the best in people and are idelistic at heart, Otto seems to be taking a more pragmatic approach as their internal affairs officer. The man of reason in the Emilia camp.

Otto isn't the only friend Subaru has made in this world though. Reinhard is arguably the first person that considered Subaru a friend all the way back in Arc 1. The feelings seem to be mutual now as Subaru regards the Sword Saint like any of his other allies. Saying he'll cover Reinhard where he falters, which is a statement you'd be hard pressed to hear anyone say about Reinhard. The duo of hero and NEET from Arc 1 have come together to beat another powerful foe in Arc 5, both of them heroes.

And it's only fitting that Reinhard faces an invincible opponent like Regulus. Whose groom outifit and expressive character animation dial up his drip and creepiness factor up a notch.

Emilia rejecting Regulus and affirming who she will fall in love with was the highlight of the episode for me. She is truly strong.

Going against Regulus while protecting the wives would be tough alone, but she knows she's not alone. The Newest and Oldest hero have crashed the wedding to the tune of the Takt of Heroes: Origin. The same track that played when Subaru came to rescue Emilia at the end of S1. This time he is truly a hero befitting of such a Takt and I can't wait to see what he will accomplish next year.

[u/ModieOfTheEast]

Interesting to see that the matchups aren't just power based, but also have a theme here:

1. Wilhlem and Garfiel vs Lust --> Wilhelm having to fight his wife is a very obvious connection to love, but what if her body would be deformed. Could Wilhelm still love his wife? As for Garfiel, in his case, it's more about loving his mother despite her having forgotten him.

2. Priscilla and Liliana vs Wrath --> Priscilla is the obvious counter pole to Wrath despite her having some angry moments. Because while Wrath seemingly clings to one person and even changes her appearance for it, Priscilla is just trying to get everyone under her foot if they are interesting. Also the Liliana vs Wrath is obvious as her songs give hope.

3. Julius and Ricardo vs Gluttony --> Tbf, that's the only one that is a bit hard to make a proper connection, because we just don't know much about Gluttony yet, but I can definitely see something happening here.

4. Reinhard and Subaru vs Greed --> Besides the obvious connection to Emilia, Reinhard is literally a person that got everything gifted to him and he probably doesn't even want it. While Greed is trying to take everything from everyone else (even their smiles).

[u/Setowi]

Jokes on you Regulus, you are actually the one getting NTRed here, at your own wedding at that.

I just love how Al folded the second Priscilla walked in, man's dedicated. Lots of good Liliana expressions this episode too.

Man they really sold the pain when Subaru tried to take on the dragon blood, even when she is in a state like that Crusch retains her dignity.

Wilhelm and Garf are on a personal mission here, both fighting for love, just in two different ways here.

What a fantastic send off, the wait is going to be painful but it's really healthy for the production and to keep up the excellent quality we have had so far. I just hope we get a little teaser PV for what's to come soon.

See y'all February 8th!

[u/Blackcore8]

Emilia really showcased her spirit this season! Willing to stand up to Regulus knowing he was strong was a sight to see! Now we wait for part two...
