First thoughts after watching Re:Zero Season 4 Episode 19
This note includes a spoiler, and not only about this episode. I watched Re:Zero season 4 episode 19 twice. I thought Shaula was going to be saved, so it was a little surprising to me (not very surprising) that she died. Was she the first person in this series who died and had an impact on Subaru? Rem was surely the first person but she was still alive. But was she reborn? Maybe this is "Re: Zero starting from the another world." for her. Originally, I thought cutting off the scorpion's tail or arms would hurt her, and I was kinda worried about it, and it caused her death. When Subaru went to a world where only Shaula and him were in the space, I prepared myself for her death. But the master she respected wasn't really Subaru, or at least that's what I felt, so it might not be good that she would stay alive forever adoring someone else.

First thoughts after watching Jobless Reincarnation Season 3 Episode 14
This note includes a spoiler. I watched Jobless Reincarnation season 3 episode 14 twice. This episode was the last episode of the first part of season 3. So, obviously, the diary shocked him deeply. He was crying, throwing up, and he even vividly understood how Sylphie would die. Maybe the future him added every single detail about her death in the diary so he could remember. So, after that moment, he did everything, even every little thing, kindly because he had seen the horrible things the future him did to everyone. But obviously, that wasn't how he usually acted, so other people thought something was wrong with him and worried about him. Aisha, especially, prepared meals more than usual, for instance.

First thoughts after watching Jobless Reincarnation Season 3 Episode 13
This note includes a spoiler. I watched Jobless Reincarnation season 3 episode 13 twice. This episode was all about what happened to the future Rudy who showed up in the previous episode. In the previous episode, there were no flashback scenes, just the two Rudies talking to each other, but in this episode, we were able to see what actually happened to the future Rudy. This was depressing and heartbreaking.

First thoughts after watching Jobless Reincarnation Season 3 Episode 12
This note includes a spoiler. I watched Jobless Reincarnation season 3 episode 12 twice. So, this episode was almost entirely about the talk between the current and future Rudy. What happened to the future Rudy was pretty horrible. First, Roxy died. I had wondered what would have happened if Rudy had gone to the basement. There was a rat in the basement, and the rat gave her the illness that killed her. I didn't expect that a little thing would kill somebody, but it was actually similar to Nanahoshi's mana illness. Also, Roxy had a baby in her belly and that caused it. So, it sounded like Man God wanted to kill Roxy or her baby, though old Rudy couldn't figure out its intent.

First thoughts after watching Jobless Reincarnation Season 3 Episode 11
This note includes a spoiler. I watched Jobless Reincarnation season 3 episode 11 twice. Because Rudy had a nightmare about Atofe, I thought Atofe would become another trauma for Rudy, but it seems not. Nanahoshi got completely better. She needs to drink tea made from sokas grass every day to keep her illness away, but anyway, she got better and she was really grateful to Rudy. She had slapped him last time, but he forgave her anyway, and she even started showing him respect for the first time. They got along even better, and she wondered what his previous life was like, but he didn't want to talk about it. Well, he was nothing like the current Rudy back then, so it totally makes sense.

First thoughts after watching Jobless Reincarnation Season 3 Episode 10
This note includes a spoiler. I watched Jobless Reincarnation season 3 episode 10 twice. When Kishirika tried to surprise everybody by saying there was no sokas grass, they were about to get mad but tried not to show it. Their faces were so twisted, and it was funny. And of course, Cliff was the first to say it while Rudy was trying to hold it back. Then soldiers came and Moore spoke the human language instead of the demon tongue. I thought he was a human, but it seems I was wrong.

First thoughts after watching Re:Zero Season 4 Episode 18
This note includes a spoiler, and not only about this episode. I watched Re:Zero season 4 episode 18 twice. The Volcanica Emilia faced was like an NPC in a game. It just kept repeating the same lines and tried to protect the pillar behind it. When Emilia got close to the pillar, she had to fight it. She used ice magic to create and summon her knights, and all of them are Subaru. She's a girl in love.

First thoughts after watching Re:Zero Season 4 Episode 17
This note includes a spoiler, and not only about this episode. I watched Re:Zero season 4 episode 17 twice. The episode finally started the loop where Subaru would overcome the obstacles. The first thing Subaru did was go meet Emilia. She was so happy, and she kicked what's-his-name, who quickly fled from her. Wait, why did he escape that fast while in the other loops Subaru couldn't make him leave and had to fight him for a long time? Then Subaru met Beatrice and Ram and they talked about the tactics there. Emilia's actions were also so cute, especially when she pressed her cheek against Beatrice's.

First thoughts after watching Jobless Reincarnation Season 3 Episode 9
This note includes a spoiler. I watched Jobless Reincarnation season 3 episode 9 twice. So, this episode reminded me of the episode when Nanahoshi became hysterical when her summoning magic failed at once. In this episode, because she thought she was going to die, she got hysterical again. It was because she really missed her original world and wanted to do what she wanted to do. She also didn't like that world because she hadn't aged at all. This was something other series don't care about, but in reality, this should be a problem. A person can easily die in an unfamiliar place from an unfamiliar virus or whatever, and that cannot be healed by magic. That's actually a pretty good detail in the story. It also rings true that empty words mean nothing to a person who is desperate. By the way, Nanahoshi's drawings are more realistic, like her mouth or fingers, maybe to show she has a medical issue?

First thoughts after watching Re:Zero Season 4 Episode 16
This note includes a spoiler, and not only about this episode. I watched Re:Zero season 4 episode 16 twice. So, this episode was pretty simple. Subaru saw his past memories from when he came to Lugunica onward, and then met himself in the Corridor of Memories. Because he had already died 15 times in the tower, it made sense that he thought the original Subaru had something special that other isekai protagonists would have in their isekai world. But he was disappointed that the original Subaru didn't. And he watched those dozens of return-by-death memories one after another, and it hit him hard. Of course, it would drive anyone insane if you could feel the pain and watch the memories.
