Re Zero Discussion Thread: Season 3 is Real

WN is back.
Peak chapter, Though it's funny Al uses "heinkel" after losing that many times lmao.

This chapter gives info about many scaling as well.

FTL is gone though, Considering It's shown that Reinhard isn't faster than the speed of sheer lighting and can't dodge it.
 
First time we've seen Reinhard pushed since Regulus (probably even more than back then), crazy chapter.

FTL is gone though, Considering It's shown that Reinhard isn't faster than the speed of sheer lighting and can't dodge it.
FTL is too consistent for god tiers, given statements and feats for Reinhard/Reid/Cecilus/Halibel. The chapter will be translated soon, but even if it does say he can't escape lightning it won't really change anything.
 
"Blue Lightning" Cecilus Segmunt was faster, "Praise One" Halibel was more skilled, "Mad Prince" Veigue Adgald was further from death, the great spirits connected to the four elements had more mana in total, the Bishops of the Witch Cult's Deadly Sins possessed absurd powers, the "Witches" of the Deadly Sins took more lives, the average good person was better at lying, and the average bad person was relentlessly stubborn.
LMAO the fact Tappei drops this right after my CRT is crazy, god I love being right
 
Time to say good bye for FTL huh. It wasn't making much sense anyway. Though some top tiers will scale to Reinhard in some way (finally) (Especially cecilus i hope, my goat).

Like what feats?
Feats include: Reid cutting Jiwald with ease, Child Cecilus weaving through a tempest of Jiwalds.

Statements from narration include: Reinhard being stated to be capable of reacting to the speed of light (Al Clauzeria) on reflex, Reinhard/Halibel/Cecilus being stated to be capable of dodging a rain of light.

It must also be recalled that not only is Reinhard physically nerfed as much as possible in this fight by miasma, the lightning couldn't even hit him because of his Divine Protection.
 
So Reinhard can go to space, but suffer from hypoxia? Either that is an inconsistency or space isn't what we think it is, arent the stars in ReZero just balls of mana?

The Lightning speed thing is weird too, even if Reinhard is nerved, him being slower than the many feats of the mid tiers doesn't make a lot of sense.
 
(Tappei doesn't know how fast lightning is relative to light)

But this chapter was really cool! Reinhard used a ton of Divine Protections (stated over 251 btw) we've seen before but in new ways, and also 8 new ones:
  • Divine Protection of Fireplay: Makes him resistant to general fire and explosive damage.
  • Divine Protection of Sunburn: Makes him unable to receive any burns whatsoever.
  • Divine Protection of Waterplay: Makes him resistant to general water damage.
  • Divine Protection of Water Avoidance: Cuts the damage of Water Magic used against him.
  • Divine Protection of Nightmares: He is exceptionally resistant to mental contamination and attacks on the mind.
  • Divine Protection of Ball Balancing: He can take control of any spherical objects he physically interacts with. This even allowed him to take control of a star launched towards him.
  • Divine Protection of Shoelaces: The effect of this Divine Protection is unknown.
  • Divine Protection of Wearing Layers: The effect of this Divine Protection is unknown.

Additionally, the Dragon Sword Reid FINALLY got its invulnerability statement this chapter.
 
(Tappei doesn't know how fast lightning is relative to light)
Adding to this: Cecilus is very adamantly described as "as fast as lightning" (this very chapter even calls the lightning "as fast as Cecilus" which is just a very simile reversal), and Reinhard has blocked serious attaks from him while just a couple of metres away, meanwhile this lightning bolt would be coming from a cloud around 2km away.

Basically it's just very silly to put more weight in this statement than the numerous feats/statements that tell us otherwise.
 
I see where Tappei is going, Ceci is faster/as fast as lightning, and Ceci is faster than Reinhard, thus Reinhard has trouble dodging lightning, but we have already seen Ceci vs Reinhard where Ceci was said to be lightning speed, and Reinhard reacted just fine.

So doesn't make sense when you think about it.
 
Even if Tappei believes Cecilus to be as fast as lightning and to be the fastest character because of this, the very existence of Jiwald completely contradicts this and well...
Kicking off the ground, Cecilus approached lightning speed with Arakiya in his arms.

Yielded in the air as if to surround the range of Cecilus’s sprint, were many beautiful mirrors fabricated with water―― the surfaces of those mirrors reflected the white rays of heat fired by the Witch, and a boisterous dance of light commenced.

From all directions, lethal luminescence was chaotically fired, targeting Cecilus.

Cecilus: [I-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-ten!]

Amidst the berserk tempest of light, Cecilus ran through it as if he were dancing. He inclined his body, leaned forward, stretched out his legs, lowered his posture, and occasionally stepped over the light with long strides.
Described to be approaching lightning speed while dancing around a gazillion spells that travel at the speed of light truly is something...
 
Cecilus is faster yeah but its probably insignificant along with reinhard having better skill + reaction speed.

Not sure but given the description and the name of the blessing I think its something along the lines of physics manip ? I assume its something to do with the centre of mass but well thats speculation
 
We're all distracted by Reinhard this chapter, but the most important detail might be the Book of the Dead.

Aldebaran only has a single Book of the Dead, which updates with his Memories every time he dies within the Matrix.

This is obviously a divergence from Subaru's Return by Death, which generates a new Book of the Dead every time he dies.

More fuel to theory that RbD destroys the world I feel.
 
Kinda does feel like Subaru is making a new "Save File" while everyone else's gets updated accordingly.

There is some video game analogy here I feel from the way Tappei set up RbD.

Also curious how Od Laguna's timeline destruction plays with people such as Reinhard
 
Not going to lie, was a little worried Al would somehow pull off the W in a conventional fight, but this lines up in terms of the narrative. You simply don't beat Reinhard in a physical/conventional fight, you have to take advantage of his humanity.

Would have been a little funny if Al went through all that and somehow killed Reinhard, just for DP of Phoenix to activate lol, though at the same time even getting to kill Reinhard probably would have diminished his character a little.
 
I think this was amazing start to volume 40 yes. The fight was elaborate, it included so many creative magics and DPs, the contrast between Al and Reinhard was fantastic, and the conclusion was everything I desired from their fight.

It was really crazy to see Reinhard win 136,000 fights in a row against an opponent who scales to him and had effectively precog, while physically nerfed and unable to draw his sword... and still only being injured twice, on the very last loop, and still winning.
 
How is the Mad Prince guy further from Death then Reinhard. Is there some weird immortality going on with him.

Like sure Reinhard can die once and revive himself but he technically still "died". So it kind of does rule out resurrection since it has to be something slightly better then reinhard is good at.

Something similar to Koschei the Deathless rings a bell to what the Mad Prince might have in store since it involves an elaborate way to kill the former's immortality type 8.

Speculations aside wonder what Tappei has in store for us
 
I'm really strangely drawn to Vague despite him not even being a proper character yet, ever since we found out he hates Spirits. I really hope he shows up either in Omega's stories or the main story.

He is likely the fabled complete cursed doll we have been waiting for. I would also like to note that Daphne may have been one first.
Further from death (equal to a dead character) 🔥
