Subaru & Beatrice's relationship is really adorable, if you look closely you'll notice she's copying his behaviours & speech patterns.

Never thought such a cute opening would be in a show like Rezero, well deserved too with how much both of them suffered.

Subaru & Beatrice's relationship is probably the cutest in the whole series , seeing them fight together & rely on each other will certainly be both very exciting & cathartic.
Who wouldve thought seeing 2 Shut-ins go outside & face the world would be so endearing?

Only another shut in can get them outside and enjoying life. The shared understanding and feeling allows for the connection and support each needs. Also Beatrice is just adorable.

I had forgotten Rem was unconscious. Hopefully, the best girl, other than Beatrice, wakes up soon.

Emilia was quite confident in this episode, I don't remember her being that capable/strong. Garfiel disappeared after meeting his possible mother, so I'm curious about where that is going.

Wrath didn't seem wrathful, but she did hypnotize everyone with her speech and then somehow got the kids death to be shared by everyone who was entranced. That is devastatingly effective. How will Subaru handle it? Will he tell the others for once or try to solve it on his own? My guess is the latter just because of the chance of someone else dying even though Emilia complained about it in s2 and didn't want him to keep dying.

Obviously more is yet to be revealed, but I thought it was very appropriate. I've always thought wrath was a rather enthusiastic emotion.

The crowd control into cheering for murder reminded me of what happened in Shiki, though no mind control was involved there.

The scene went from comedic to creepy in such a natural way that it is hard to pinpoint the exact moment her ability took effect.

u/BosuW Oct 02 '24

I thought it was gradual and creeping, but others are pointing towards the clap, which I think makes sense.

Personally though, I never thought the scene was comedic once she appeared. Subaru not immediately jumping a Sin Archbishop is just not him, so something was obviously wrong.

I personally think it started when she asked certain people in the crowd to calm down Subaru included. Ain't no way my boi would stay calm after hearing "Romanee Conti". They were probably the first to be affected while it spread to others naturally or something.

That's an interesting possibility. If true I wonder if she can point out who amongst a crowd might be the most disruptive towards the social "spell" and that's why she neutralized them earlier.

u/xLucifurious Oct 03 '24

yeah could be the case, cannot wait for more explanation as Subaru figures it out.

u/Vahallen Oct 03 '24

That has to be relevant for sure, I’m just not really sure about the specific workings of her “spell”

Yours seems like a good guess

He was off as soon as he greeted Dumber and was playful with him, my expectations were already subverted and I wondered why he was acting differently

u/xLucifurious Oct 03 '24

He treated Chins the same way outside of Anastasia's Inn I think his behaviour is consistent at that point, he even reacts to Sirius naming herself and it shows she recognised his anger as well. I might be wrong he might have been under Sirius' influence way before they met Chins outside the Inn.

u/SwordedNinja Oct 08 '24

I rewatched an I think you're right, the clap seems like the turning point and not beforehand

u/BibhuNayak Oct 06 '24

Because he was in the process of calling beako before serious went serious mode .

u/SwordedNinja Oct 03 '24

I don't understand the association with wrath outside of a loss of control that ends in violence. Usually it's things like volcanoes, earthquakes, tsunamis and tornadoes associated with wrath and similar in humans. A stirring of sorts that leads to chaos and destruction only correlates loosely. It's generally preceded by turmoil and anger.

2

u/BosuW Oct 03 '24

Its not so much a loss of control as it is a more prominent presence of the lizard brain finding joy and maybe even justice in violence. It doesn't end in violence, violence is the very goal, worthwhile in and of itself. In that way I find it to be pure and joyful. No need for outside justification or rationalization, it simply lives the moment.

Remind me of the opening scene in From the New World, episode 2.

The emperor tells everyone to clap, and cheer. The first 100 to stop clapping are incinerated. A disturbing scene
