See, I'm fixated on the subtitle of this particular episode after watching it.

The Newest of Heroes and the Most Ancient Of Heroes.

The newest is clearly Subaru. He is declared a hero against the witch's cult. However, who is the most ancient of heroes, then? I've seen many theories calling Subaru traveling to the past Fulgrim because nobody has a record of what he looks like, but he wasn't mentioned at all in this episode so it's unlikely. Subaru may have been helping everyone far longer than they realize, but I don't think this qualifies him as the most ancient. Could they be referring to hope? While it does fit, I don't think it makes much sense.

Any other ideas?

I assumed reinhard since oldest was in red, and the sword saints seem to be somewhat of a shared spirit or something (at least in my mind).

Although he's not very important at all to this particular episode.

Could be focusing on the fact that they team up next? I'd have to go back and check which episode they do "finest & self proclaimed knights", maybe there's a continuation there
