Re Zero Discussion Thread: Season 4 is Real

Quotes of some significance, from The Land of the Nascent Wolves / Undead Busters 3. Rare example of actual destructive feats other than cloud stuff.
A carefree voice seemed to blot over the introduction, and in an instant, the arms raised aloft were severed at the elbows, and the Iron Arms from which he derived his alias spun around as they flew through the air.

There was no pain. If his body had been reconstructed in such a manner, then he might just be able to reconnect the arms by pressing the cross sections back together――,

???: [In the way.]

That meager hope of Harline’s was extinguished by the hellfire that engulfed his airborne arms.

As he bore witness to the arms as they met a terminus of ash and dust, anger swelled in Harline, having lost his Iron Arms, and he would attempt to pounce at the enemy who had enacted that――,

Harline: [――Ah?]

A tiny palm squarely touched his chest. Right in front of Harline was a young girl of short stature, and he met her blue eyes.

Then――,

???: [――Aaine.]

Having been resurrected from death, Harline the Iron-Arms was once again plunged into the depths of Od Lagna.

When it came to these two, from start to finish and from dawn to dusk, they would bicker in such a manner, causing Spica’s head to spin as she was caught up in the middle of it all. ――But, these two, unable to get along, matched each other’s pace to an unbelievable extent, and were indispensable for Spica’s journey.

As a matter of fact, the undead known as Harline the Iron-Arms who had just been sent away through Star Eating, was an enemy so formidable that Spica would not have been able to do a thing without these two. As expected from the immovable First and Second of the Vollachian Empire, which Subaru had referred to as a nation of complete carnage.

The Iron-Arms seemed to have been someone who had been known for his strength during his life, but the pair had easily evicted Harline from the mountain cavern he had burrowed away in and finished the job while the sun was yet high in the sky.

Having taken in a tremendously powerful Spirit, Arakiya was preeminent at wielding the forces of earth, water, fire, and wind; instantly creating a steel plate by compressing earth, she heated it with fire to prepare the tools for cooking. Onto it, Cecilus cracked an egg which he had procured from the nest of a wild bird, and thus, they began frying the egg.

That which could have been called the very land of Vollachia itself, the Great Spirit Muspel, the Stone―― having merged with that entity, Arakiya could sense the whereabouts of the undead, who had been resurrected using Muspel’s power. However, it had still only been a short time since she had merged with the Great Spirit, so Arakiya had yet to fully master its power, and thus could not tell apart the strength of the undead she perceived, which caused her anguish. This also brought with it several complaints from Cecilus.

As Cecilus began speaking tediously yet at such a high pace that it bore no feeling of tediousness, Spica feared that another fight would break out with Arakiya. Thus, Spica looked towards Arakiya in trepidation, but――,

Arakiya: [――――]

She was not looking towards Cecilus. Not towards the steel plate frying the egg by her hands, either. Her beautiful features, still with a trace of youthfulness behind the immense power they concealed, were facing upwards, and her thin lips quivered.

Arakiya: [――It’s coming.]

It happened at the next moment. ――A roar thundered across the campground, and a part of the mountain was blown away.

Alongside a mighty roar, struck by the oncoming blow of a black bracchium, Breznon was sent flying into the air, spinning his body around to unsheathe and aim a kick at his opponent’s face.

The steel-wrought Iron Legs were concealed by pants and shoes, unperceivable by an opponent upon first encounter. His older brother, the Iron-Arms, would always strongly assert himself, but since Breznon did no such thing, there was no end to those who misread his kicks.

This opponent would likewise choose to catch the blow without dodging, and would have his face smashed in by Breznon’s Iron Legs―― that instant, Breznon’s leg was caught in his opponent’s jaws, and shattered.

Breznon: [Ah?]

Widening his eyes at the impossible situation of having lost out in hardness, Breznon froze as the joint of his other leg was met by a flash of claws, severing the fixture between flesh and steel as his left leg was torn from its root.

Right leg crunched, and left leg severed by claws, Breznon had been disarmed in an instant.

And then――,

Breznon: [Wh-what the hell, are you――]

???: [――Luck hath pissed upon thee. I be naught but a fordeemed wretch.]

The gaping jaw sunk its teeth into Breznon’s windpipe, nowhere left to run. That biting force, capable of even crushing legs of steel, was something that Breznon’s slender throat had no way of resisting.

???: [――――]

Fangs gnashed, and the yoke which tethered the empty life was lost; the undead known as Breznon shattered like ceramic, crumbling to smithereens.

Ascertaining that, the one who had enacted that by his own hand―― nay, by his own fangs, looking down the slope of the mountain that crumbled due to the tremors of battle, slowly turned around,

???: […Thou’rt, whom?]

Young Man: [The leading actor of this world, the one who stands at the center of the stage anticipated by all. In addition, one who bears the duty of hunting you, resurrected as an undead as you are, my name is Cecilus Segmunt.]

Eloquently, the young man gave his introduction as if having rehearsed it many times before―― at the sight of Cecilus, his bestial fur stood on end.

Without even needing to look at the two katanas holstered at his waist, Cecilus was visibly a fighter from his posture alone. The fact that Cecilus was so accustomed to giving his introduction, was proof of the extent to which he had traversed the front lines of death.

Warriors who staked themselves in duels had a habit of giving their name, and he was one who had experienced that opportunity several hundreds of times.

And, whether or not he realized the heightened tension within him, Cecilus tilted his head saying “By the way”,

Cecilus: [Might I ask your name?]

???: […Volcas.]

Cecilus: [Ho! Volcas-san! That’s quite a nice name. A black-furred wolfman gives the impression of an outstanding fighter but for your name to be Volcas on top of that is quite exquisite! It reminds me of one of the characters starring in “Iris and the King of Thorns” who was a preeminent warrior talked about through the history of the Empire, the Doomwolf General!]

Volcas: [――――]

Cecilus: [I said it reminds me but could it be that you are that very person in the flesh?]

With a sudden sparkle in his eyes, Cecilus sought to ascertain that without a hint of malice, and the jet-black wolfman―― Volcas, while scratching his own neck, scrunched up his snout.

Cecilus: [I’ll have to apologize to Anya! Truly and certainly beyond a shadow of a doubt! You are the very symbol of the grand climax I’ve desired!]

As Cecilus smiled from ear to ear, Volcas experienced the greatest dread he had ever known, and readied himself. Seeing that response, Cecilus widened his stance, and,

Cecilus: [――Blue Lightning, Cecilus Segmunt.]

Volcas: [――Doomwolf General, Volcas.]

Showing that he too was one well accustomed to giving introductions, Volcas’s claws and fangs closed in on his opponent.

However, the strength of those bearing the title of General in the current era was――,

Cecilus: [Please don’t take it too hard. ――I’m simply far too dazzling.]

A flash of lightning and a triumphant proclamation colored the conclusion of the momentary combat between fellow Generals emblematic of their respective eras.

Cecilus: [These aren’t games it’s romance! Why can’t you just understand this Anya? If this wish and prayer came true then Anya’s precious little sister princess would have surely been greatly pleased!]

Arakiya: [――Hk! Unbelievable…! Just go die! Die! Cecilus!]

Cecilus: [Ah! Anya’s mad! Though just now it was my choice of words that was poor!]

Too loud to just be called lively, the tempestuous conversation reached the ears of Volcas, causing him to slowly open his eyelids. And then――,

???: [Aau?]

Right before his eyes, peering into his face, collapsed as he was, a young girl met his eyes.

Volcas: [――――]

Behind her was unfolding a duel so fierce it made Volcas’s clash with the Iron-Legs seem like child’s play, but Volcas averted his focus from that.

Either way, he had already lost. If his second shot at life had been shattered and come to an end, then so be it.

Breznon can blow away part of a mountain, Volcas easily defeated Breznon, Volcas (1st ranked Divine General in Eugard's era) is weaker than Groovy (stronger than all of Eugard's Divine Generals). Fun stuff.
 
Ok both the trailer and visual are now out. ALSO we got renders of all the arc 6 designs + Shaula. I'll start adding the good-looking renders to pages soon. If anyone gets ahead of me, please crop the image properly as to not waste space.



Edit: Subaru, Betty, and Shaula now have their S4 designs. The rest I felt weren't necessarily superior to the current images used, or just were too short-lived (Emilia wears that travelling outfit in like 3 episodes total).

Saw Shaula's profile was lacking so I put her in a Sandbox. It was easier than I expected so I might drop hers before the dark work sisters, as a wee hurrah for S4's trailer.

Also for fun, this is my personal top 10 in terms of combat power in Re:Zero;
  1. Reinhard van Astrea
  2. Satella
  3. Reid Astrea
  4. Ram (Oni horn)
  5. Regulus Corneas
  6. Sekhmet
  7. Volcanica
  8. Cecilus Segmunt
  9. Halibel
  10. Starbeast Puck / Vague Adgard (Vague is probably stronger but he's a non-character, so Puck's here to be safe)

You forgot Goku...
 
A Petra profile is the last thing I expected lol.

Still waiting on the vollachia profiles, i have a few sitting in my sandbox, if someone wants to copy and improve them, go ahead.
 
I started on an Arakiya profile a while back.
Rowan page
 
For "Aldebaran's" third-person pronouns: Should I use neutral ones (they/it) since the species is sexless, or use masculine ones since it was a man's ego that was installed?
 
We use what the character identifies as. If he still refers to/thinks of himself as a man then the latter.
I don't think "Aldebaran" has taken the time to clarify their gender, WCT just chooses to refer to them with "it" the same as all other Dragons. Closest thing we have I think is "Aldebaran" still using ore in katakana just like Al, instead of 我, but that's not exactly definitive.
 
While Echidna saying Al could beat Sekhmet is obviously the craziest thing that's been said about him, I still think the craziest thing he's actually done is totally overwhelm Garfiel in cqc and even injure him this badly. Like, this kid just walked through Dragon breath two volumes ago. What the hell. I know Al said he could overthrow Garfiel by pressing his vital points, but it's still extreme given Al is allegedly a normal person.
Sekhmet might have a weakness that is extremely hard to find. Not like he'll be overpowering her.

Her weaknesses aren't particularly hard to find, Echidna says she had major shortcomings outside of sheer strength. It's not like Al has overpowered anyone before either.
Witch: [The Witch Factors that manifest Authorities have no greater or lesser power than one another. Pride, Greed, Envy, Wrath, Lust, Gluttony, Sloth; there is no inherent superiority or inferiority among them, which holds true even for the abilities of any given Authority. Though, there are some that become obstreperous when tied to the strength of the user, like in the case of Sekhmet’s Authority.]

Aldebaran: [Ah, yeah, she was like the strongest Witch in generations, right?]

Witch: [There is no doubt about that evaluation. But then again, Sekhmet had major shortcomings outside of her strength which could be taken advantage of. Perhaps because of her lineage as a Giant, she was sloppy in many things.]

You can definitely partially chalk it up to Garf's divine protection not working correctly. He wouldn't be able to walk through dragon breath without it. It's still quite crazy though.

Yeah the Divine Protection of Earth Spirits was hindered by the Augria Sand Dunes. There's also Al's Earthbrand Arts and Lia'd Icebrand Arts shattering eachother with every blow. He's a funny guy, that Aldebaran.
 
Re:Zero Tanpenshuu 12 Bonus Shop Special Side Story "First Mission, After" reveals Reinhard's heroism is motivated by the stories of Himmel and the Party of Heroes.
I wonder if Garfiel ever thinks about what Kamina would've done.
 
New chapter was genuinely insane, wow.

Anyways, Shaula CRT.
