This isn't confirmed but Wes is onto something with that theory at the end given what's happening in the Novel right now

Ramms

Emelia?

And

I like how much of Emelia being completely sheltered as child and even adult is apart of the plot. When she's at Greed's home, she doesn't react to him asking if she's a virgin because she doesn't understand the context, only that he's being slightly creepy about his delivery and her being naked.

But i doubt he'd call his son "bro" even if he wants hide his identity. From the break time episode we only know that he's from Japan too

After thinking long and hard about it, I'm willing to bet that the dragon is Garfiel's mom's husband. I'm pretty sure he was one of the hostages, and he's the type to save strangers cuz he stopped and dug out momma from the wreckage of her cart. Also, was there confirmation on Wrath being Fortuna? Because I'm 100% it's her and that she was probably brought back from the dead 🤔 maybe the death God they mentioned. Cuz there's something she said (I forgot now) that made me feel like she is like Frankenstein monster. Like the was put together and brought back.. wasn't it like "he (Juice aka Geuse) made me" or something? Ya'll.. 😵‍💫 there's just too much information from this show I'm trying to piece together. I'm starting to not be able to remember anything lol 😅 (Edit for break time) Wait! Omg! It kind of makes sense that Al would be an isekai! I can't believe we didn't realize 😂 didn't he say at one point about he used to play hero? Or he eluded to having done something of the sort? I may be confusing things now, but if he had been an isekai, it means he also would've tried being a hero too right? Maybe he hides his face cuz he'd be too recognizable, standing out as a Japanese man, and maybe he failed whatever he was doing? Or, he got messed up badly, cuz he has those scars on his arms. He also seems to know the cult, so he could be hiding his face so they don't find him....... 😳 oh! Here's a wild idea.. they said the seat of pride was empty. They asked Subaru if he was pride. I assumed he was and doesn't know it yet, but what if they were told that pride is a Kararagi looking man (Japanese) and it's Al?!?! 🤯

Sum, I am not disagreeing with what you say, but don't you feel like the localization is getting a bit out of hand? It feels sometimes like they want the characters to sound cool instead of just translating. For example, translating "so desu ne" into "I'm down with that." They cant even use the excuse of "mouth flops" for that one.

Random

I think Nagatsuki senpai loves space, not just stars. For example in the movie Aliens, Ripply has a pet cat. It's name? Felix. There are also other names used from classic space movies (80's 90's) that I have found. The ones I cannot find any links to are the candidates.

Random

That's just my theory and I'm going from the principle that it won't be touched on later

Adel

You guys are slightly misinformed. "Little girl user" is the correct and quite literal translation of Subaru's nickname, 幼女使い (youjo tsukai). It doesn't sound quite as strange in Japanese because it sounds the same as something like "sword user" or "magic user", but it's still bad enough to annoy Subaru. Basically it connotes someone who uses little girls as a weapon, or tames them like snakes or beasts or something. I feel like the English version has a bit of a "predator"-esque feel which isn't in the original Japanese, but "Lolimancer" is just plain wrong because the word "loli" is not present in the original phrase. "Loli" is a word that nobody in re:zero except Subaru knows or uses. I have seen some fan translators use "Lolimancer" as a joke, not because they think it's actually accurate. I will agree that "waifu" is a terrible translation of 俺の嫁, though there are some who seem to unironically think otherwise, I believe this is also due to being misinformed. The humorous/cringy nature of 俺の嫁 just amounts to something like "Emilia is my girl!" and is still a form of Japanese that regular people use, so it makes no sense to translate it into some ridiculous meme word that is only used in subculture.

Sum

Interesting theory, i am also convinced that there must be some connection between the characters with constellation inspired names

JeanCliene

Al being Subaru dad is actually pretty cool when you think about it cause his personality is similar and if he got here 18 years before Subaru it could be some cool time travel thing

Chideraa Udegbulem

And he doesn't let Priscilla call him Aldebaran, his full name, he's annoyed when she does, for reasons I'll not disclose, but he can't do much about it since she's his superior he's sworn to. Beatrice lets Subaru call her Beako because of their bond and has come to like it, as she used to be annoyed in the mansion when he did back in S1.

Araragi Senpai

Yeah, Crunchyroll has several "localization" issues in their subtitles that aren't in other service's versions. Loli shouldn't have been translated to "little girl" as that's not what that means and carries a weird implication. They also made Subaru call Emilia his "waifu" which is not at all what he says in Japanese. There's more too and it's frustrating. That's a huge part of why I don't use Crunchyroll anymore, on top of them monopolizing and corrupting anime as a whole...

kamikaze.33

An interesting thing to note as well, Subaru is the Japanese name for what we'd call the 7 sisters--the tight cluster of 7 stars at the butt end of the constellation of Taurus. And Aldebaran is the name for the brightest star in the constellation of Taurus, at the tip of the bull's left horn. So there might be a clue to their connection in their names! Although that said, there are at least a few other characters named after stars too, most: Betelgeuse, Sirius, and Regulus being the most prominent ones I can think of off the top of my head. So maybe the author just really likes using stars for names lol. Although Betelgeuse and Sirius are also closely related stars, Betelgeuse being the brightest star in the constellation of Orion and Sirius being the bright star following a little below and behind Orion and often depicted as Orion's dog companion. And we're thinking that Betelgeuse and Sirius might have hidden connection to each other (IF Sirius turns out to really be Mother Fortuna). But idk. I might just be really reaching to find some kind of pattern or meaning in their names that simply isn't there... lol

kamikaze.33

I kinda hate and love the Al = Subaru theory and now I am 🤔🤔🤔

Renegade

I don't even know if you're right, but if that's true, I think that's giving away too much information? Although we don't really have an idea of who else would've been there yet.

Renegade

Ah yeah, I knew I was probably wrong with that but I didn’t want to look it up lol

Ravn Stevensdóttir

Aldebaran * is his complete name, not Alphonse

Gaelthor

There are some things the anime had just kind of left out from the Novels that’s pretty important info (or so I’d heard), & I read through a summary of all those changes here recently since I’d planned on diving into the novels, & I’m now realizing those tidbits of info are what’s covered in those story time bits at the end, very unique way to do it!

The Anime Dude

In a different anime, the Isekai Quartet movie, they revealed Hoshin. Just how they look. They revealed Al in break time, they showed Hoshin in a chibi comedy kids movie, and there's also some more random lore drops in a cards thing and a mobile game. The author plain and simply does not give a fuck and I respect it

Loro Lukic

No problem bro

mark9jr

mark9jr, Thanks, I got mixed up.

Adel

I personally thought that “All too well” was just Al talking about how he occasionally lets his princess call him “Alphonse” and nobody else calls him that

Ravn Stevensdóttir

You were able to notice Wilhelm's reaction to the swordsman, that's great. Also who do you think that dragon was as a human ?I think it has something to do with the conversation between Garfiel and his mother in episode 2 or 3. (That's just the most obvious answer to me giving the evidence not really confirmed)

Adel

I really like the villains in Rezero but I find it funny how 1. They have some of the worst team work of any villain group I’ve ever seen 2. They’re all extremely psychotic. Additionally a lot of them love repeating words in funny ways that become scary as hell in context Fun fact - Julius calls Subaru Lolimancer instead of little girl user in the light novel

Moroni W

Yeah, absolutely fine to watch now. Everything has appeared in the show at this point.

D B

Wes is far from the only one to theorize that Al is somehow a time traveled Subaru. I agree that the last line of that break time episode gave me weird vibes too. I don't know if I'm quite sold on the theory myself, but I wouldn't rule it out of possibility either. Definitely worth keeping in mind if you ask me.

D B

Yes. Please

Reuben Filimaua

You would be the one to know/notice that 😆 I didn't notice, but if they got her for Sylphy, I guess Sylphy is going to be a returning character from here on out. Doubt they'd get Aoi Koga for a minor character. Although, after looking a little, she was also Tanjiro's little brother in Demon Slayer, and well... He didn't exactly stick around very long. So maybe she won't stick around very long, after all. I'm hoping all the wives get more screen time, though. Feel like they need to build a rehabilitation center for them, lol.

Iriza

You should watch the opening and ending now, no spoiler anymore.

Fabien

51:52 punches of gratitude is a Hunter X Hunter reference you won't get for a LONG time but I hope you remember this when it shows up

hellodude776

56:30, I thought of this speculation as well. For me, Its either this theory or Al is Subarus actual brother cause in the parent episode Subarus dad or Subaru did mention something along the lines of “Eldest Son”. Maybe that the mom was pregnant during the disappearance of Subaru. But idk cause, he’d be just an infant. Maybe the two worlds time dont work the same; al was born later, isekaid earlier. Once again no basis for that. WHO THE HELL IS AL 😭

Lark

And there it starts... the Al= Subaru theory xD Don't worry, a lot of people do think it and it certainly has value. But to this day, we still do not know the truth. Just for context, in the Light Novel , the fact that Al is also a Japonese was revealed in the equivalent of season 1, when we first meet him. But it was cut from all anime versions , probably because they thought it wouldn't be relevant... Now for a bit of mind f*ck... if Al can be Subaru or A Subaru through time travel shenanigans, then what if Subaru is Hoshin , the founder of Anastasia's birth country, a country that apparently has a lot of similitudes to Japan through culture, accent and architecture... Great Reaction , it's always a pleasure when i see a notification from you guys, especially a Re:zero one! Would you guys be open to reacting to Side content about Re:zero, such as lore video (those that are non spoilery of course) or the What if Series?

Gaelthor

Woah that revelation at the second short. I didn't know that. I should have watched these earlier, but I didn't know they were a thing until you two started watching them 😅. Damn, I know something was up with Al, and I was considering that option before watching this. But to actually hear it is crazy. Heck, I even thought of Wes' 'loop gone awry' theory before (but I thought it was a little too wild 😂). Though my theory is, that Al was someone who visited the room in the past and tried (and failed) to connect with her. So that's why he said, he knew that all too well. Or maybe he's talking about something similar, with a haughty person only allowing someone to use a special nickname for them (like the princess candiate?!). He's intriguing - I want to see him fight now.

Peter Butchens

We could really use a loop right about now. But I don't even know to what point it would loop to.

Honeybadger

Re:Zero does not do previews at the end of an episode. They release the preview one day before the episode drops, on youtube.

Mitschiro

all: i know all to well he sounds like another time traveler to me

Skull Knight

I think you guys have the green light on watching the ending it is now spoiler free if you care to watch it

The person you called Hayasaka has Kaguya’s VA actually if you can tell
