First thoughts after watching Re:Zero season 4 episode 5
I watched the Re:Zero season 4 episode 5. I remember the story for season 2 and 3 only a little, but don't remember the details of each character that much. At first, Subaru was surprised to pass an exam on the 3rd floor in the Pleiades Watchtower. It was an answer which has no way to know from normal people, so he thinks the person who set it up is pure evil. Then they went to a library with a lot of books. But the books were unreadable, because when they were opened, the characters were moving. Those books were for the past people but that library was too big and not sorted very well. However, when Subaru opened one of books, then he experienced the life of that person. That book was for the Witch of Pride, Typhon. It's a little bit surprising that even Emilia or Beako didn't know the name of the Witch. Only the Witch of Envy was known in this world?

First thoughts after watching Re:Zero season 4 episode 4
I watched the Re:Zero season 4 episode 4. I remember the story for season 2 and 3 only a little, but don't remember the details of each character that much. Subaru woke up on Emilia's lap at first in their carriage, which was actually in the Pleiades tower. Then everyone is there. I was thinking why? Probably Shaula gathered them or they happened to be there after the end of season 2. But if she gathered, then I think she prioritized Subaru at first, so it's likely the latter case.

First thoughts after watching Re:Zero season 4 episode 3
I watched the Re:Zero season 4 episode 3. I remember the story for season 2 and 3 only a little, but don't remember the details of each character that much. At the last episode, Subaru and others fell down from the flower's fields. Subaru, Ram, Anastasia, and Patrasche arrived at the underground of the dune. He obviously saved Ram while falling down to the dune. At first, he was anxious about Rem and lost his temper because if she is alone, she cannot do anything and be hurt. But Ram was chill and she tried to make him calm down. She also is worried about her, but I feel a little bit weird because Ram lost the memory of Rem. So she thinks Rem is important for her because of the fact that she is her sister? At least she got to the point that she reacted like she used to be before if there is a danger to Rem.

First thoughts after watching Re:Zero season 4 episode 2
I watched the Re:Zero season 4 episode 2. I remember the story for season 2 and 3 only a little, but don't remember the details of each character that much. This episode reminds me of Re:Zero and got me excited a little. Subaru and Emilia went to a pub and heard a rumor about the dune surrounding the Pleiades's tower. They said flying birds in the dune always go to the tower.

First thoughts after watching Re:Zero season 4 episode 1
I watched the Re:Zero season 4 episode 1. In the last season, Subaru fought against multiple Sin Archbishops with royal candidates of Lugunica's next ruler and their knights. And in the season, Julius was forgotten by everyone by the end. Also, Subaru got a dragon's cursed leg and arm instead of flesh. It started with a scene where they met outside and talked about him, confirming that everyone except Subaru had forgotten him. Then Anastasia suggested to meet with the Sage in Lugunica, Shaula. They are the one of the greatest heroes: the sword saint, who is obviously Reinhard, Dragon lord, I don't know who, and the Saint. The saint could save him from the nameless state, which was the curse of Gluttony. It's the 1st time hearing that Saint and wondered what he did for an entire time. It seems the Sage keeps their eyes on the seal for the Witch, obviously, but then what does Dragon lord do?

First thoughts after watching Classroom of the Elite Season 4 Episode 13
I am a light novel reader for this series and this note includes a spoiler. I watched the Classroom of the Elite, COTE, season 4, episode 13. I finally liked Amasawa in Anime. I didn't do in LN so much, but with watching animation for her, she is an emotional and mysterious girl, and that's nice. Anyway, Amasawa came to Ayanokoji and Nanase's fighting place. At first, Nananse didn't trust her at all because she saw someone with hair like Amasawa back when Kinoshita was hit by the cliff. Well, it makes sense. Who can trust her? Then she talked to Ayanokoji alone and revealed herself that she was from the White room. And then she left. Why did she come to him? I had no idea, but probably shouldn't think. If I remember correctly, it was not that important. Perhaps because she came near him and couldn't stop meeting with him and talking about herself.

First thoughts after watching Classroom of the Elite Season 4 Episode 12
I am a light novel reader for this series and this note includes a spoiler. I watched the Classroom of the Elite, COTE, season 4, episode 12. This episode was about 2 things. First, the Nanase finally lured Ayanokoji into a place where nobody is there and started fighting against him. When I watched in English Dub, it's a little bit hard to understand when she tried to behave like.. what is his name? Eiichiro? But fighting scene was a good that Ayanokoji is as expectedly overwhelming her. I still don't feel this scene and the motivation of Nanase doesn't really make sense, but she is 15 or 16 so make sense that she wants to put someone for her anger.

First thoughts after watching Classroom of the Elite Season 4 Episode 11
I am a light novel reader for this series and this note includes a spoiler. I watched the Classroom of the Elite, COTE, season 4, episode 11. Overall, finally a story started getting interested in. The episode started from the scene that alarms were going off without stopping and then Ayanokoji, Nanase, Ike, and others found out they're from Komiya's one. They knocked out and was unconscious, and they found out they were falled from the cliff, but Shinohara wasn't there who was supposed to be the same group as Komiya. Then after that, Ike tried to find and found out Shinohara above the cliff, who hid because she saw somebody kicked Komiya and pushed them down, and she was scared, which is actually pretty scary if you're only one person out there in a dark, and someone would kick you but you don't know why they do. Then teachers somehow didn't believe Shinohara and they sent two students away from the exam.

Brain dump after watching Classroom of the Elite Season 4 Episode 10
I am a light novel reader for this series and this note includes a spoiler. I watched the Classroom of the Elite, COTE, season 4, episode 9. First of all, this episode showed that Ayanokoji cannot become a weeb. That's most important thing in the episode. Throughput this episode, it's good to see the animation of what's happening in this exam, especially it's hard to think what happens. Some history quiz or the anime quiz on the beginning is obvious, but the scene where Nanase took a rest was just on a few rocks without any water in a forest, for example. Why didn't find a place to drink water there. Also, it was great that Sudo didn't believe Nanase as he saw what she had done.

Brain dump after watching Classroom of the Elite Season 4 Episode 9
I am a light novel reader for this series and this note includes a spoiler. I watched the Classroom of the Elite, COTE, season 4, episode 9. I may already remember scenes incorrectly throughout this series, or maybe an anime changed the original script. For example, there was a short scene of Nanase's past. How did Ayanokoji involve with someone outside of Whiteroom? Or maybe did this scene try to show Nanase was actually related to the Whiteroom? Also, somehow, Horikita knew that Ayanokoji and Kushida had a deal so he needs to give points. I remembered this was far later than this episode is, so I'm not really sure the intent is here.
