    Man, what a brutal first episode! Will be interesting to see where the author takes it from there.

    What an absolutely fucked up episode. I love it! Insane how quickly things went horribly wrong for our boy this time, second loop and he already died one of the worst deaths he’s ever had. That flashback to him leaving his home was just rubbing salt in the freshly opened wound. This is shaping up to be some of the worst despair Subaru has ever had to face. In his mind he got pulled from his completely normal life straight into this nightmare, is pretty much alone after witnessing his supposed allies plotting to abandon him and potentially even assassinating him, and has to deal with the knowledge that no matter how brutally he dies, he will just go back remembering everything about it while no one else does. That checkpoint spot is pure evil as well, it just creates a perpetuating loop of misery, with every death Subaru unravels more and more and trusts his allies less which just leads to them feeling more estranged from him as well. Can’t wait for next week, this season is absolute peak!

    I have some theories now on why Subaru lost his memories…

    He either overflowed the maximum a soul can store, maybe hinting towards why there are tons of books in the tower…

    or

    Maybe he learned about Satella, and since return by death would not reset his knowledge, she had to intervene with his soul beyond return by death.

      We really still don’t know what happened between him and Reid, the chopstick ronin, before the first time he was found on the library floor.

      I could be wrong, but that didn’t seem to be a death save point to me.

      Gluttony hiding in the shadows is possible, given his appearance in the OP, but I’d have thought he would have eaten more than just Subaru’s memories.

      I can’t wait to see Shauna, the heartless killing machine edition.
