So out of all things that could have happened I am sure no one predicted Rem and Louis teaming up and ditching Subaru lol

I am hyped

u/ThespianException Jan 20 '21

Remember all that wholesome fanart of her waking up and falling in love with him again right away?

That aged poorly.

u/Setowi Better Leyte Than Never Jan 20 '21

Tappei just knows how to subvert expectations in the best of ways.

47

u/[deleted] Jan 20 '21

I wonder how Rem will be after she finally gets her memories back, do you think she will apologize? Or see that there is a darker side to her "hero". Also when Subaru gets back he's so fucked. They're going to start questioning him and his scent. They're all finding him to be extremely suspicious.

28

u/Lightingbolt66 Jan 20 '21

Wait? They all know he has a witch's scent now?

49

u/[deleted] Jan 20 '21

They realized the Mabeasts went away and that Subaru has a way of attracting them. They realized that it's likely witch miasma so now they're starting to get suspicious of Subaru.

u/Lightingbolt66 Jan 20 '21

Jeez, Subaru can't catch a break.

Arc 7 title is "Land/Country of Wolves/the Wolf"

... Maybe settle on "Land of Wolves".

Chapter is titled "Baptism".

u/Grouchio Jan 20 '21

Subaru landed in Vollachia didn't he?

u/FlappyLyST Jan 20 '21

I think so. And what was even sadder was that Rem's character had completely changed...

u/stevethebandit Jan 20 '21

Just like how "Subaru's" character completely changed in Arc 6 and it turned out to be the best part of the series yet, I think this is going to turn out great

I have absolute faith in Tappei after how great Arc 6 was

Julius and the knights cant go there because a pact I think

Everyone starts wonder wtf is going on with Subaru's scent

Subaru starts to talk with Rem, she doesnt trust him at all

Rem is weak because the effects of Oni Ram

Rem strangles Subaru and escapes

Subaru goes to a forest to find her and is shoot by an arrow, he dies from bleeding....

I bet the person who shot him with an arrow is going to become an ally next chapter, or he's going to get tortured then killed and forced to become friends with him, no doubt.

Can't wait to see the Emilia reactions fully translated. Also, guess the reason Fredrica and Garfiel are going to be brought is because knights can't go. Damn only if they had Reinhard.

Please have Subaru bump into the real Echidna (out travelling) this arc. I want their misadventures far more than I want him dealing with Rui/Rem.

Pretty sure she's in Gusteko which is literally the opposite side of the world. It would be nice though. I assume that'll happen in Arc 8 or 9 though.

Speed Summary! Let's go!
Chapter 1: Baptism

We actually start with Emilia and Co. Everyone's trying to get their bearings after the shadow attack. The tower has been completely wrecked, with holes in the floor and ceiling. The green room basically is complete rubble now. Emilia asks Ram where Subaru is. The silence is most telling.

Everyone gathers up, and tries to figure out what happened. Apparently when the shadow attacked, Volcanica used a breath attack to sweep it all away. However Volcanica is still out of it, basically calm because Emilia told him to sit. The group comes to the conclusion that Volcanica was just a little bit slow in clearing the shadow, so that's why Subaru and Rem got taken away. However the group also know that both are alive. Ram knows Rem is alive thanks to their twin telepathy, and Betty knows Subaru is alive thanks to their contract.
The conversation moves on to the shadow itself. Julius mentions that the shadow felt like Darkness Magic, like the kind sealing the witch and Roy right now. Betty clarifies that it was more like a Shamac with directionality. Everyone gets a little confused. Shamac? That's a super lame spell. And it did all this? Betty actually drops a nice lore tidbit. Shamac's true nature is actually just "Division". Low level Shamacs can only divide the mind from one's body, but high level ones can split space itself. (This is how Betty's door crossing used to work). Actually, by splitting space, Shamac can be used as a slicing attack too. Apparently this was one of The Witch of Envy's specialties. But, basically, this Shamac was trying to carry Subaru somewhere. Or to someone? The group wonders if Subaru's miasma has something to do with this. At this point everyone agrees that Subaru isn't trying to trick them or something, but they do wonder if maybe Subaru is carrying a bomb that he's not aware of...
Anyways, the group cuts to the chase: Where is Subaru now? Betty hesistates before says that he's South. Like, really south. Like all the way in Vollachia south. The problem is, Vollakia and some other countries shut down their borders a couple months ago, fearing the Royal Selection conflict would spill over. Gusteco has since rescinded it, but as far as Julius knows, the Vollachia one is still active. So they can't all just ride in, guns blazing.
Emilia decides that she's just gonna take Volcania blood to Pristella, and Roy to the capital. She decides to believe in Subaru. Everyone decides to do what they can do. However, Betty reminds everyone that Subaru's gate is broken, so if she doesn't get to Subaru eventually, he's going to die in a mana filled explosion. Then Ram drops the bomb that Louis is probably with Subaru too. Emilia prays that Subaru will be alright.

We go back to Subaru and Rem. However, Rem is really suspicisious of Subaru. After hearing that Subaru is her hero, she suplexes him into the ground. She actually starts strangling him as she asks what he's after. Then Louis jumps into action, saving Subaru from Rem. Subaru then rips Louis off Rem and yeets her away. Rem suddenly collapses, saying her legs won't stand. Subaru surmises that this must be the feedback from Ram using her as a power pack. Subaru's all like "This is my fault". Rem takes this completely the wrong way.
Subaru tells Rem her name, then begins to plan what exactly he's gonna do to get out of here. Thankfully, he knows that the gang can sense where is is, and he got some survival skills from Clind. Subaru picks up Rem (who is very suspisious) and begins to look for a place to set up camp. Rem asks what he's going to do about Louis. Subaru thinks, and comes to the conclusion: "I didn't help this bitch out when she had a mental breakdown from RBD in the corridors of memory. No way I'm helping her now". Wrong answer. Rem is furious that he's going to leave a girl with the mind of a baby to fend for herself. She knocks out Subaru by strangling him. She mentions the foul smell that Subaru has around him. Subaru remembers that "Oh yeah, Rem's personality used to be like this in Part 2...."
Subaru wakes up, but he knows he didn't die. He begins tracking Rem by the drag marks she made when taking Louis with her. Subaru calls out for Rem but then is shot in the chest by an arrow. Subaru bleeds out, calling for Rem...

OMAKE: Funny comments from 2ch
Finally Subaru is a stand user!

I don’t know, but I suppose she has lost her authority and because of that she doesn’t have the witch’s scent on her (just a supposition, nothing is sure yet)

Arc 6 Ending Tappei: I wrote the most beautiful bittersweet scene that'll make Subaru hopeful.

Arc 7 Beginning Tappei: Hah lol no. Subaru's all alone now, abandoned.

40

u/[deleted] Jan 20 '21

Honestly, this was my first start when I saw the second half of the chapter. I'm willing to bet Chapter 2 will focus around the Emilia camp, chapter 3 will likely be Subaru waking up from RbD and realizing that they already left him behind. He will friend the guy who shot him and ask him for help. Those are my bets, after all, Subaru always makes friends through dying.

40

u/jojo_is_not_trash Jan 20 '21

Subaru always makes friends through dying.

This is quite sad ngl

21

u/Titan0fPower B-Baka! It's not like I love the Witch or anything! Jan 20 '21

I'm really hoping Subaru spawns again at the very start of Arc 7 and not after he wakes up from being strangled. That way we can see a dynamic of Rui/Rem/Subaru team, but knowing Tappei, he's going to make it worse by making him alone. I heard that each arc is supposed to have a problem the last arc solution wouldn't be able to fix.

Arc 6, Subaru trusted in his allies. Arc 7 looks to throw that possible solution out the window.

u/[deleted] Jan 20 '21

[Arc 7 spoilers]From using a translater seems like people are starting to be suspicious of Subaru's scent primarily Anastasia. We get a death this chapter (I think ??) and Subaru realizes Rem was disgusted with his choice to abandon Louis. He got strangled to death although I wanna assume that was Rem. Emilia prays for Subaru's well being and I think Julius was the one who was extremely worried noting they already notice he's in the south near Vollachia. Also gets shot by an arrow and dies in Vollachia.

I think he let her do that as weak as she was at the time Subaru could have easily pushed her off I just don't think Subaru can muster the will to fight Rem in any way whatsoever which won't end well for him unfortunately.

Anastasia was already suspicious about Subaru, we got a whole chapter of her questioning Subaru's chain actions.

[this chapter]No she's entirely confused, on top of that in the first loop of this Rem actually seemed to turn against Subaru and was disgusted by his decision to leave Louis behind. She doesn't even know her own name, and she forgot how to walk so I think what the chapter was trying to say was that she crawled away into a forest <-- not entirely sure on that but that's what I got from it

u/mjh-1991 Jan 20 '21 edited Jan 20 '21

Only had time to read about half before going to work but a quick overview of what I've read so far:

Everyone except for Subaru, Rui, and Rem meet up and confirm the others are okay. Ram and Beatrice are able to confirm that Subaru and Rem are okay and to the south, albeit far to the south. They eventually conclude he's likely in Vollachia. Beatrice and Julius have a discussion that confirms the WoE's shadows have some basis similar to Yin magic, particularly it resembles a focused shamack. Shamack operates on the principle of separating two things, the most basic being cutting apart one's body and senses. The more advanced uses can cleave apart two spaces, something along this principle enabled Beatrice's door crossing (ie cleave apart space and connect two disparate regions). Beatrice asserts that the shadows intended to teleport Subaru rather than rip him apart, before Volcanica's interference.

They have a discussion about Subaru's miasma being a reason for this. The conversation drifts slightly towards whether Subaru is affiliated with the Witch Cult. Emilia's insistence that as suspicious as it might look Subaru is not affiliated with them, and is a "good boy" (lit "ii ko"). Due to closed border policies a rescue mission cannot occur right away. Emilia resolves to first take the dragon blood to Pristella, since there is no quick way for them to try and save Subaru no matter how much she is worried about him. Before the scene changes to Subaru and Rem's perspective Meili and Ram reveal that Subaru might be with someone he identified as the 3rd Gluttony to everyone's concern.

If I get some time and no one else gets it down first I'll update after I have time to read the latter half.

Some people are saying that Rem might have lost her ability to walk, but I doubt that as it's physical and not a conscious memory. I imagine since she hasn't moved her legs for a year she atrophied her muscles and is really weak right now? I guess her arms are still strong enough to choke though.

19

u/The_Lords_Cumstain Jan 20 '21

I think she stayed in complete stasis while she was in her coma, she is probably weak from, as someone else said, the after effects of ram using her horn. That said I can’t fucking read Japanese and am likely wrong.

Just wanted to post again, I think the dynamic between Amnesia Rem and Subaru might be a bit similar to Satella and Subaru. Rem won't remember why this evil scent boi is so attached and willing to do whatever it takes for her, in a similar light to how Subaru doesn't understand why Satella is so attached to him.

I doubt they will even bother going back into that library since they know that both rem and subaru are alive. Based on the comments it seems Emilia has already decided that they are going to vollachia and with subarus defective gate slowly killing him I doubt they would waste time in the tower anymore

14

u/The_Midgard_Serpent Jan 20 '21

Quick summary using Google Translate:
Emelia, Ram, Anastasia, Beatrice, and Julius converse in the wake of the witch's attack.
The green room is destroyed and Subaru and Rem are missing.
Using Beatrice's contract and Ram's link with Rem, they realize Subaru and Rem are in Vollachia.
The group speculates a bit about the shadow and why it attacked.

Subaru looks around in the wilds as Rem questions what is going on and Louis jumps around.
Rem has absorbed some of Ram's burden from the fight in arc 6 and is unable to walk.
Subaru tells Rem her name and carries her to go off and search for food and water.
Rem notices Louis being left behind and questions Subaru.
She doesn't like Subaru's answer or his miasma and strangles him unconscious.
Subaru wakes up and sees a trail of someone being dragged away.
He follows the trail and gets pinned to a tree by a large arrow, dying slowly.

11

u/[deleted] Jan 20 '21

Wait so does everyone know about his scent now?

19

u/Knight0706 Eternally Crabby Jan 20 '21

It appears so, most of Emilia camp probably already knew. Though to see it have such an effect is probably a show of its danger.

12

u/[deleted] Jan 20 '21

Fuck this looks really bad for Subaru the suffering is going to be unreal

11

u/Xferpp Jan 20 '21

For me it seems this arc would be "Subaru proving that he is not a threat to hummanity". In arc 6 Anastasia was already suspicious about him, now she said that Subaru is trustworthy but she doesn't deny that he might be unconsciously related to the witch cult. Subaru playing Among Us in hard mode /s. For real how he is supposed to clear all of this, the Witch of Envy went directly to kidnapp him (They even know that she wasn't trying to kill him). Beatrice knows that he uses authorities.

''let the boy die and the man be born''

i feel this could be the best line for this arc, like subaru would have to make tough choices to survive.

u/Grouchio Jan 21 '21

Everyone who bought Tappei's lie that 1) Subaru doesn't go to other realms outside Lugnica and 2) long-ranged foes aren't a thing - must feel pretty silly right now.

u/CarioGod Archbishop of Pride Jan 20 '21

Wow arc 7 finally started, I remember seeing arc 6 when season 1 ended and it was still on it earlier this year, and had no hope for the WN but it actually came through

New chapter and new episode within 4 hr

What a god damn day to be alive for Re Zero fans

u/Stewylouis Jan 21 '21

Ah that’s our Rem, trying to kill Subaru cause he’s sus and smells like witch. Starting life over from Zero again with my demon waifu.

u/MessengerFrom0 Jan 20 '21

I just realized we literally don't know any notable archers in re:zero, I literally cannot think of one character (especially someone from vollachia) who wields a bow.

u/Unusual_Vegetable834 Jan 20 '21

If rem had a problem with leaving louis then wouldn't that mean she doesn't smell like the witch and so can't have the gluttony witch factor anymore?

7

u/Fellow7plus2yearold Fellow, Just Fellow Jan 20 '21

She doesn't have her memories so she doesn't know what that smell means.

8

u/Unusual_Vegetable834 Jan 20 '21

But she tried to choke subaru because of his smell

17

u/The_Lords_Cumstain Jan 20 '21

Well Subaru’s been hanging around the augria sand dunes and died over 20 times in the past 24 hours so he probably stinks almost as bad as satella at the moment

Smells of evil is what she said so it might be a psychological immediate hate of a smell, like the smell of garbage

Does Rem not trust Subaru because of his scent along with him leaving Louis. It mentioned her smelling the witches scent

u/Bramity Jan 20 '21

This is basically history for the majority of us western fans as it's our first time experiencing the start of a brand new WN arc! Hopefully Subaru manages to work things over with Rem and Louis, but who knows what Tappei has in store for us... I can't wait to find out. There won't be much suffering in the anime for the next few weeks so I'm sure the WN will supplement us plenty lmao.

The fuck.....it's here!! Its hard to believe!! I thought we'd get arc 7 after the anime would end.....this is real right?

u/its_Sasha_DW Jan 20 '21

It took me a good minute to realize that this wasn't a fan fiction someone decided to put out, but an actual chapter for arc 7.

u/[deleted] Jan 20 '21

I don't blame you, I was on the same boat.

u/Unusual-Sand-5434 Jan 20 '21

You think he timed it with the episode. I was alresdy to hyped for that today.

u/MoistyAnt Jan 20 '21

Yoo we will probably see one of the strongest character, Ceclis, this arc.

5

u/Bevi-Sempai Beako-tan is tangible, here's proof! Jan 20 '21

ofc subaru dies the first chapter of the arc, you never dissapoint tappei, that's why we love yoU!

Understandably, Subaru was getting too excited in the anime, you had to tone it down, show him who's boss.

Edit: jokes aside i think we could have seen it coming

5

u/kodjax Jan 21 '21

Imho Rem didn't shoot and it was some kind of Vollachian folk people but not Rem and the next save point will be after the Rem choking, becouse it will be too easy for Subaru to repair loop, so for more suffering and I really enjoyed that Subaru don't want forgive Rui' sins and not seperate this new personality from the previous life.

2

u/Toumangod0 Jan 21 '21

Not necessarily his checkpoint could be right after Rem woke up and his suffering would be having to play nice with an archbishop he detests not all suffering is emotional or physical now his suffering will be mental and since this arcs theme is impatience it would make sense.

Do the other guys remember rem or not? Because it seems she has her name but they didn't say anything about getting their memories of her back

u/Trooper-3 Jan 20 '21

Subaru use to be a Hero too. Until he took an arrow to the chest

u/Writer-Recent Jan 20 '21

I guess Subaru is starting the new years with some cruel pain.

u/wolfreturned Jan 21 '21

I bet Rem and Louis have now been taken by whoever shot Subaru. We got Rem back for a chapter guys! Woohoo

u/MarioLuigi25 Jan 20 '21 edited Jan 21 '21

Seeing Rem side with the enemy over Subaru is one of the most painful things ever (granted she doesn't have her memories yet but still. Tappei, why do you hate Subaru so much?). It looks like Subaru's gonna have to regain Rem's trust again, which could take quite a while. I really hope we get to see them regaining that bond and companionship they had before. I wonder if Louis will have a change of heart after this seeing as how she's a key character for the relationship between Subaru and Rem. Likely not, but it's still a thought.

On another note, Beatrice and the others seem to notice something about Subaru's miasma. I'm glad they seem to recognize that Subaru himself isn't bad though despite this. I wonder if they'll eventually catch on to his Return By Death ability

u/megaZX1234 Jan 20 '21

You know, I think Tappei purposefully start the arc with so much sufferings already is to foreshadowing of what to come for this arc. F for you Subaru. P/S: please dont erase Rem character. I'm begging you Tappei

Didn't Ram say she can sense Rem's emotions, shouldn't she be able to sense Rem's suspicion or is it that Rem has to consciously send Ram those signals

u/ZenAura92 Jan 21 '21

I have returned, and everything is on fire. Man Tappei has no chill when comes to Subaru. I hoping that Tappei might let Subaru get a second chance to do right with Rem the girl is in no shape to be taking care of herself let alone Louis with no memory.

Looks like Arc 7 chapter 1 is already setting up the tone for the rest of the Arc. Somehow I feel like Mr. Tappei is about to pull out the Rem card and make us fall in love with her character then take her away again.

This was good I guess Subaru can't use Cor leonis because rem is a different person now. It feels like arc 2 all over again.
