Re:ZERO - Starting Life in Another World - (Original Japanese Version)

Amid dying countless times, Subaru finally led the troops to victory against the White Whale and struck down the schemes of the Sin Archbishop of Sloth. After overcoming a painful ending to his these ordeals, he was reunited with his beloved Emilia.

After concluding their talks with Crusch, Subaru and Emilia return to the village of Arlam, intending to report to Roswaal and discuss what to do next. But they find Arlam deserted and learn that the villagers who had taken refuge have not returned.

On the way to the Sanctuary, Subaru unwittingly finds himself invited to a witch's tea party, where the hostess introduces herself as Echidna, the Witch of Greed. Subaru is alarmed, but Echidna encourages him to sit and drink his tea before it gets cold.

It's supposed to be his own room, a place he's supposed to be used to seeing, but Subaru can't shake the feeling that something is off. He's overcome by an indescribable sense of uneasiness, but being caught in his father Kenichi's armlock shakes it away.

Having reached a place he can't return from, Subaru realizes just how much he has been given and how little he can do to repay any of it. After remembering what he must do, he says goodbye to Kenichi and Nahoko and heads to the school.

After dying to Elsa's blade in Roswaal's mansion, Subaru awakens back in the graveyard, in the moment immediately after he passed the trial that required him to face his past. Just like the first time he returned there, he wakes Emilia and holds her.

Subaru reached for the door, determined to save Rem, but instead of Rem, he found himself staring at Beatrice's library. Beatrice had remained silent throughout Elsa's attack and saved Subaru's life just moments before Elsa could claim it.

Subaru was caught and confined by Garfiel, but Otto shows up to rescue him. Garfiel can't leave the graveyard while Emilia is undergoing the trial, so Otto says this is their chance to get outside the barrier, but Subaru doesn't agree.

After being eaten alive by a herd of unknown creatures resembling rabbits, Subaru awakens in a half-maddened state next to Emilia in the graveyard. As he pounds his head against the ground, he finds himself invited once again to a witch's tea party.

Subaru exits the graveyard to find the surroundings engulfed in black shadows. With the sudden appearance of the Witch of Envy, everything is swallowed up by darkness. After Garfiel rushes in to save him, Subaru tries to find a way to get them out.

Subaru heads to Roswaal's mansion in hopes of finding out what's going on there and how he can fix it. He has Frederica and Petra evacuate to Arlam Village to protect them from Elsa's attack, then heads to Beatrice's forbidden library.

Subaru awakens in the graveyard with Emilia lying nearby. This time, he makes up his mind to save not only Emilia, but everyone in the Sanctuary and Roswaal's mansion from the threats that hang over them.

Subaru is shown several visions of events previously unknown to him during the second phase of the trial. When he feels as if he's worn away to nearly nothing, the one to stir him is the one who loves him more than anyone else.
