THAT ENDING SCENE GOT ME STRESSING YALL WTFFF also btw - i did watch the frozen bonds OVA but it will be a patreon exclusive extended reaction. which means on monday i'll be starting to upload my season 2 reactions! if you want early access for my s2 reactions, you can check out my patreon (BUT WAIT TIL TOMORROW, 6/1 SO YOU DON'T GET CHARGED BY PATREON TWICE PLEASE LOL) patreon.com/alanamisako have a nice weekend yall!!
Bro, half the reason people wanted you to watch the directors cut was that ending. It is such a gut punch that doesn’t land till S2 otherwise, but most reactors miss it because they just watch the standard cut.
Just to clarify, it's mentioned that Rem is the one that wrote the letter that arrived blank. So Rem's fate was already hinted at, even in the original S1 airing.
Also, Ram never asks for her sister and you can see that Subaru was gonna say something at the end of the "happy ending" but was suddenly cut. I like to think that he was gonna mention Rem and thus give us the bad ending.
Btw, the regular season 1 finale ended with that happy scene between Subaru and Emilia and that last “who’s Rem?” scene is only in the director’s cut, so anyone who saw the original version would get a surprise watching this one
Fun fact : 5:47 the hoodie Subaru wore can't tell the person who wears it. But, Petra can tell it's Subaru LOL maybe there's something in her eyes ? Even in episode 15, the cult destroyed both of eyes...
@@blackcid That would be amazing if that happened. And i agree: Season 1 > Season 2. Season 2 wasn't bad, but half of it was boring, and the plot around the whole s**c**ary seemed forced.
no: *Won't this mean it is second-person mode?* First person is stated as the literal POV of a person. In this case, Julius is using Subaro to see, which means it can't be first-person mode. Third person means an individual or a perspective outside of the character. In this case, Julius is seeing through Subaro, which also negates third-person logic. What is left is second person. This is what we all as gamers wondered: "What could be second-person mode?" Second person means an *unspecified individual*. This is complex and hard to explain, but I can give you an easier example. In the game "Driver: San Francisco," there is a mission (I forgot which, but search on the Internet for "Driver San Francisco second person mission"). In this mission, you the player take control of the mind of the driver whose mission is to *blow you up and take you down*. Thus, you take control of another character trying to follow and take yourself down while you're controlling the enemy. In this mission, you chase yourself around. Interestingly, the way you control the enemy driver affects the car that you, though unconscious, are controlling. This example clearly coincides with what I have stated above: *Julius just did what second-person POV is.* Gamers' paradise! *Also SUMIMASEN*
@@tp_exe You might be right, third person is when you control a character with the perspective being outside said character, I didn't think about that.
the flashback subaru saw after emilia thanked him at the end was to their second meeting, where he called emilia satella and got the most hateful eyes from emilia. that hateful gaze really carved deep into him, he even mentions it during his first lap pillow from emilia when he says "i didnt want those eyes to look at me that way again".
With this successful loop, learning about Otto’s divine blessing of being able to communicate with all living creatures including bugs and animals gives more context to one of Subaru’s previous failed loop. The one where Otto kicked Subaru off the carriage to get away from the white whale. Otto could understand it the whole time, and it was saying many disturbing things that had really unnerved him. Subaru was also no more than a stranger to him at this point in time.
21:09 "What did he write?" I don't know why the anime did it like this. All they had to do was add subtitles. As it is, NOBODY who is anime-only knows what's going on. But what is going on. Subaru wrote down something like, "You're dead. The End." At least, that's what commenters on other reactions say. 23:40 Petrasche, the GOAT, doing GOAT stuff!
The original season didn't end with THAT scene, it ended with the moment of Emilia and Subaru and in a more of a happy note... When I rewatched with the Director's cut in preparation for season 2 and watched the scene I just lost it, SPECIALLY BECAUSE SEASON 2 WAS GOING TO AIR IN A COUPLE MONTHS AT THE TIME AND I HAD TO WAIT TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENED, AHHHH.
It wasn't a cliffhanger in the books but the first third of volume 9 they stopped on, they did it for anime only happy ending reasons (before adding the ending scene to the director's cut) and shock factor reasons(after adding the ending scene to the director's cut). The books have no actual breaktime between arc 3 and arc 4.
for ending this story , only a man who try to help someone special to him "That's all story for them" fun fact every each ep name has a meaning for emotional or story
I think I know the reason why Subaru could be possessed by Petelgeuse previously. In his previous life, he first spoke with Petelgeuse, as if he wanted to join the Witch Cult. When Subaru finished pretending, Petelgeuse said that Subaru was a traitor. At that moment, Subaru was automatically considered a member of the Witch Cult (this proves the theory Julius mentioned in this episode) plus Subaru has the Witch Factor of Satella
Petelgeuse is a spirit and Subaru has a lot of affinity to spirits. . In short, petelgeuse can possess anyone who has an affinity for spirits, but the condition is that they do not have contracts with one. . There is a "what if" in which Subaru is officially a member of the witch cult, but in that "what if" Subaru had a contract with a fire spirit and that is why petelgeuse could not possess him
Subaru was wearing a charmed cloak, the one Emilia was wearing to hide her identity while in the capital, then threw at him when they had that fight. So his identity was hidden by the cloak, hence why she didn't recognize him :)
Comparatively Emilia didnt have much screen time, which immediately flips in season 2 lol. Emilia saving Subaru in his first loop of the new world left a pretty big impression on him, and since hes the only one who DOESNT know about Satella at that point he has no biases against her and just goes all in. That said, theres certainly a currently unknown link between him and satella and by extension Emilia. Even in the web novel nothing has been revealed about that yet i think.
Yeah, of all the devastating ways the season could have ended that cliffhanger was something else. Season 2 is fantastic though, as is the absolutely adorable OVA.
Don’t worry, the author agrees. He was shocked ppl liked Rem as much as they did. I like Rem too, but her mental issues are a bit sad and it’s clear nobody can do much to help her.
@@ma.2089 Spoiler I prefer LN's current Rem than the old Rem, the old one clearly didn't have a healthy love for the Subaru, so much so that she faked her own death to make the Subaru desperate and force a declaration of love from him, if the current Rem falls in love with him it will be easier to accept (but she clearly won't keep him, as Satella and Emilia are in the mix, with the added bonus that Emilia has already made it clear that she won't let Subaru keep Rem at the beginning of arc 6 , and also the satella doesn't seem to like the rem)
@@greed1925 yeah that whole “please say you love me, I’m dying. Just kidding! I guess you love me! Please make me your second wife!” really soured me on her character. It makes sense for her since that level of love isn’t normal, and the author did want to show that Rem isn’t in the right and she’s flawed, but the fact ppl use it as proof that Subaru loves Rem is kinda gross. I also am unsure if Rem will even fall for him again. She fell for him solely cus he saved her but with her memories wiped, it’s unsure if the right circumstances will happen again for that to happen. I do hope they can become friends again at least. And speaking of Satella disliking Rem, it seems Al also dislikes Rem too due to him getting angry when he heard who she was in the novels. Something is afoot, and it might have to with how Ram would’ve gotten both horns if Rem wasn’t born.
What Rem did for Subaru back then, is what Subaru did for Emilia in this final episode. This series is hopelessly romantic, and I don't midn that :) P.s. It's okay if you're team REM ;)
The "Why Does Subaru love Emilia so much if he just met her?" is a fact the fans have theorized around a lot. So you are not that wrong have such thoughts. The main theory doesn't spoil anything, but I won't share it just in case it ends up as cannon.
Tell meeee please. I mean I'm a guy and I know we fall in love easily but like... Subaru is so down bad... I mean, to give his life for her many times... like how is he so in love so quickly.
@@zev_nx the theory is about how the contract subaru is under from Satella (its existence proved whenever he tries to tell sb about RbD) also wiped Subaru's memories before ep1. He was actually isekai'd before the events of S1, when he supposedly met Satella, fell mutually in love and Subaru got the Envy Witch Factor. That would explain why Satella loves Subaru and why she says those sentences in s2.
uhh just pay attention to his room when hes in his first trial. he CLEARLY had a thing for anime girls with silver hair. its BEEN his fantasy type since before he got to the parallel world. the theory you have about RBD and satella has merit to it, but i dont think its anything as far as "subaru's memories were wiped". if anything, theres a theme of reincarnation more than that.
I got a job at the Brunch Box in Omaha Nebraska Hey! Alana I have work next week and Every Friday and Every Saturday too Hey! Alana you can visit me at the Brunch Box in Omaha Nebraska❤😊
Why does rem get treated like a toy for our emotions I swear she made us love her and ram and then we find out she has been killing him and then we feel bad for her because she feels responsible for her sister losing her horn and then she dies by the whale and by battelguease and now she gone from reality and she got rejected by Subaru in the worst way
Nobody gets to be happy in the series, that’s why. A lot of ppl seem to think ppl like Reinhardt got it easy, but his backstory is depressing too. Subaru wanted to leave the world he came from for a chance to restart, but he entered a world where happiness is fairly scarce lol

Oh, trust me, Emilia would shine brightly in the next ss
Alana: I feel so bad for Rem right now.
Everyone watching: Who?
Loved every second of S1, but S2 is still PEAK!!! Can't wait for S3 to come out!!
"Who is Rem?" isn't in the original season 1 adaptation; it was added for the Director's Cut - but yes, it's extremely canonical.
and this..... is the part when Gigguk inserts the song "Don't you forget about me"
Foreshadowing in 28:10 ? Subaru saw the 3rd loop Emilia... The loop where he shouted Satella's name.
Could you tell me why he remembered that loop specifically?
I remember someone saying that's why Ram didn't asked about Rem during episode 23
"Does Betty always just stay here?" 💀💀💀
Season 2 is Masterpiece, u won’t be able to stop watching it ❤

I'm surprised by how much you like Julius 🤣
its so peak, everything about the end was phenomenal, but idk who rem is
Originally that was the worst cliffhanger, it was something like 6+ years until the next season
Yeah, of all the devastating ways the season could have ended that cliffhanger was something else. Season 2 is fantastic though, as is the absolutely adorable OVA.
you will love the second season as there is a lot of development in several characters, I advise you to be very attentive and watch the OVA first.
Mark your words "It was good that he died last time"
