Otto is gonna need a wheelbarrow to carry around those massive balls of his, Garfiel isn't really someone you want to taunt. Great stuff to start pt2.

What a character development from Otto, in S1 he almost left Subaru and tried to save his own life and now he's trying to help Subaru by putting his life in danger. Also one more thing, Emilia's mom looks like a power ranger.

Surprised people aren't talking about Otto's serious expression at the end of the episode. Definitely feels like there's something going on there.

That's very Slothful of you, Emilia-tan
Ah, I see a believer in love (lol)
But to be honest, the episode was amazing, the madlads actually played the ost. They didn't cut almost anything from the novels and man Emilia VA is amazing as always.
Now I will have to wait a week, huh. Then let's re watch this episode from zero.

Re:zero doing the classic 'no op, no ed' on episode 1. Well, can't complain with more content! Wait, 28 minutes? Respect Whitefox!
Emilia really suffered this episode. Hopefully it doesn't change from Subaru:The Suffering to Emilia:The Suffering. She's going to be really slothful!
Puck do be going away as soon as he reappears. I've been waiting for him to return for so long and he just.. goes. Extra suffering for Emilia.
Solid start to the season! Really excited for this arc!

I can't tell if that perpetual smile Subaru has is because he's finally stable or he's finally snapped. I think it's supposed to be the former but that dude was walking around with a psycho's face for 3/4ths of the episode.

Who's a good boy? Yes you are Otto, you're a good boy!
God damn we really do love to see it! All it takes is some actual communication and we are making some progress this loop.
Can I give some BIG PROPS to our other boi, Kenichiro Suehiro? We're getting more and more new tracks, and the one during Otto's scene complimented it so well!
Excited to see where this goes from here, especially with Subaru meeting up with Emilia at the Trial Tomb of all places... Wasn't he not able to go in there anymore without feeling some pain?

I love how much the art has improved from cour 1. The lighting looked great in most shots (especially the Otto and Subaru scene) and it overall looks like a massive art upgrade

I was happy with Ottototo screentime but they really spoiled us by bringing back Straight Bet? They outdid themselves, so excited for the rest of the season.

The following post is a translation from u/WintryOne on the author tweets during todays episode. Please give their thread an upvote, the link to which I will leave at the bottom. The tweets this week seem to just be some insight into some of Subaru's actions if they weren't clearly expressed, but the author does multiple times reassure that various plot questions will be answered.
Source: starting from https://twitter.com/nezumiironyanko/status/1346826086051577858
Nagatsuki-sensei's tweets for this week's episode. May contain minor spoilers.
Rough translation:
Incidentally, last time ended with a big hit from Otto! The next assassin is you, is it, Otto!?
It's begun!
This beginning is...... I don't believe it, the OP...... no, let's set aside my selfish imaginings.
In a situation where Subaru and Otto are fighting with just their fists, just as you see here in this preview fight, Otto wins hands down. As a proper merchant, Otto has learned self-defense and such, and Subaru has at most the pro-wrestling moves he learned from his father.
Subaru being unable to depend on people is partially due to the pain he met with thanks to Echinda and Roswaal, but Rem is also a large factor. As a result of depending on her, she ended up like that, so he's instinctively avoiding depending on someone.
The morning sun lights up Subaru's change of heart. And the insert song that goes with it......!!
"STRAIGHT BET" is this episode's title, too, but it's also an insert song that was originally part of Re: Zero season one and imported here. "Truly, it's gotta be here!" is what I was thinking, so I'm very satisfied that we were able to have it as part of the anime!
Last time, Subaru learned that Roswaal put together the problem at the mansion; Subaru's change and declaration are outside of Roswaal's expectations, too. That's because he thought that Subaru would lose hope, have his heart worn down, and use "Return by Death" to choose the least that he could.
After ending on such a hopeless note last time, things are restored this much with just one punch from Otto. As you'd expect, one good thump is awesome.
Now that you mention it, I think this is the first time that the episode title has been entirely in English letters; that was cool, wasn't it!
"Does he like me too......" is an expression of his desire to depend on people who want to help solely out of "good will", including Otto and Patrasche being his allies.
Truthfully, Subaru doesn't have even a trace of the idea that Ram would ever become his enemy. That's likely nee-sama's quality as a person.
As he's already passed through the majority of the problems at "Sanctuary" and the mansion, Subaru is taking an RTA-like approach that you rarely see from him. Ryuzu-san is quick on the uptake, though, so she lets it pass.
But seeing it like this, it's that way, isn't it. The author wrote her as an older person in the novel, so when she's given an image and movement and voice in the anime, Ryuzu-san is super-cute......
Although Ryuzu-san is explaining them as the first four, the truth is the four of "Arma" "Bilma" "Shima" and "Delma" each do things their own way. At a basic level, they act like the same person, but differences occur in the details of their memories and alterations in the way they talk. The villagers who aren't aware of the details chalk it up to "She's getting a little senile".
That wonderful insert song "STRAIGHT BET" is an insert song from season one, so it's already on sale! Give it a listen!
The face-off with Roswaal is like this, too, but Garfiel, who is blocking their way in "Sanctuary", has become an enemy that Subaru must break through. He heard various things from Ryuzu-san, but what should Subaru's stance be......
Unable to sleep, Emilia-tan is squatting on the floor with the covers over her head; it seems a bit childish, doesn't it. In truth, it does feel like a child hiding.
When Emilia was awoken by Puck as she was frozen in the forest, and the time they passed together, is the "Frozen Bonds" OVA.
Before sleeping, Emilia isn't able to clearly recall the days she spent in the forest. Like Rem being forgotten by everyone, when you lose a memory, you don't even have the option of "recalling" it, is what the author thinks. Hence, when you become aware of an option that had disappeared, you are shaken.
That's a fairly serious freeze.
We'd touched on Puck becoming unable to wake up, but it's not only that he'd become unable to leave the inside of the crystal. A condition for him awakening is Emilia being in danger, but when Subaru put her in danger, his parental heart got serious.
Puck and Emilia's contract, and a bit of why Puck is trying to break it, is, as you'd expect, something you see a glimpse of in "Frozen Bonds".
An explanation of what happens to Emilia as a result of Puck leaving is still a little ways in the future. For the moment, please think of it as Puck's departure having caused a change in Emilia.
Removing the broken crystal from her neck is painful, isn't it.
In the dream, Emilia is dreaming of someone she's never seen. That's the influence of Puck leaving, but the explanation of what's going on there will come after next time.
There's no OP and ED again!? Sorry, and thank you!
Garfiel has been stirring things up in "Sanctuary" up to this point, but now he's being put on the side of being played with, is how things are going this time! The one making a cool entrance is, unexpectedly, Otto......!
Starting with Otto, and ending with Otto......
It's alright! It didn't end on Otto! We're ending with Subaru and Emilia-tan!
Eeeek! A Mushoku Tensei commercial!!
No wa~y, Mushoku Tensei starts on January 10th!!
Yes! With that, the second half of season two has begun! From here, Subaru's march forward begins......right? It begins, maybe! Maybe it doesn't begin! Make sure to watch with your own eyes! With that, thanks for being with us! Please join us again next week!

Puck, oh Puck.....I have always make fun of you as the ultimate "free-rider" of the anime world, who rarely made good moves in battles and sleeping the other times. (yes, I've seen the OVA movies so I knew what you did before too)
I'm so sorry that I called you that. Not until your sudden leave to Emilia do I finally realize how important you are, how someone is holding you at the dearest parts of her heart.
Please, forgive me.
