Re:ZERO -Starting Life in Another World- (Re:ゼロから始める異世界生活)

No, this is bad! Very bad!

Subaru, what's wrong?

- I see where this is going. It's how they suck you in.

Run away! Get out of here!

Uh...

Eh, maybe this one instead.

Stay with me!

That's 363 yen.

Oh, a jagged-edged 10.

Hang on!

No matter what...

I'm gonna save you!

That's what I get for holing up in my room all day gaming.

Guess my eyes are tired.

Hmm?

Huh?

What's going on?

I'd say I was dreaming,

but this is obviously really happening.

Totally not fake.

So does this mean I've been summoned

across the universe to another world?

- Well, from the looks of things,

I'd say this is some kind of fantasy world

with medieval-style culture.

A realm where demi-humans are commonplace,

there's always a war or an adventure to go on,

and in this magical world, I must have--

- - Hey, watch out!

- This is it. It's totally happening!

This must be an event pop

where I'll learn to produce magic!

Look out!

Guess it's a little too early

for me to use magic in this world.

I can't read any of this.

- Hey, boy. -

- Those are some weird-looking clothes.

You're not from around here, are ya?

So are these--

- Appas, the freshest you'll find.

- At least we speak the same language.

Let's see if...

- Huh? Where's that money from?

You can't use that stuff out here in Lugunica,

and if that's all you got, then you're flat broke,

so don't waste my time, freeloader.

Get outta here!

That answers that.

Guess I'll have to stick

to good-old information-gathering.

- This place is for demi-humans only.

Ow, my eye!

I can't see!

Is this how it's supposed to be?

'Cause none of it makes sense!

This is a different world summons, right?

Where's my main character set-up and status bar?

Damn.

Looks like my cell phone still works.

But there's no point in even having it now!

And the gear they've started me off with is a joke.

If you're gonna summon lazy-ass kids like me to your world,

you'd better overhaul your crappy welfare program!

Start me off with an Excalibur sword

or a magic cloak!

And besides,

if I were transported all this way,

where's the cute girl who brought me here?

Why would she do that and then bail on me?

Yes, you're finally here!

It's nice to meet you, cute girl...

- What are you going on and on about?

- If you don't wanna get hurt, cough up whatever you've got!

Aw, crap.

It's already compulsory event time.

Move it, move it!

Move it, you guys!

Hurry! Out of my way!

Yes!

I knew you'd find me eventually,

cute girl who summoned me!

- Hmm? Summoned?

I dunno what you're talking about,

but I'm really busy.

Sorry. Now live strong, okay?

Wait, what?

Where are you going? -

So, did seeing that

make you feel any less hostile, by any chance?

- Actually, it rained on our parade

and made things worse. - Of course it did.

Calm down, Subaru Natsuki.

Since ancient times,

it's the rule that anyone summoned

into a different world displays supernatural powers.

If I just believe in myself hard enough,

those powers will kick on and pave my way to future glory!

You loathsome EXP!

- That's the first time I ever hit somebody.

Guess I never expected it to hurt me,

but it doesn't matter because this world is set up

so I'll be strong! My adrenaline is surging!

I can do anything!

I'm sorry, I'm sorry!

It was all my fault! Seriously, forgive me, please!

Spare me!

- - Play games with us, will ya?

Die, scum!

- That's enough. -

- Huh? - Uh?

- And just who in the hell are you?

Stop now and I'll forgive you,

if you would be so kind as to give back what you stole.

You can't be serious.

- Please. It's very important to me.

I'll turn the other cheek concerning the other belongings,

but I can't let you have that, so hand it over.

- You mean you didn't come to save this kid?

What strange clothes he has.

If you're asking me if I have any connection to him,

I'd have to say no.

Well then you've got

no business with us, little girl.

If someone stole from you,

it was that brat who just ran by.

- Yeah, what he said! That way!

She ran that way!

Hmm.

Those three don't appear to be lying,

so I need to go after her.

But regardless of that,

I can't overlook what's going on here.

Magic?

Hey, mess with us, will ya?

I don't care if you can use magic.

I'm gonna kill you!

You think you can win when it's two against one?

Do you? - Indeed.

Two against one may be unfair. - All right, then.

Two against two should even things up.

- You use a spiritual arts?

Correct.

Retreat now and I won't chase you.

Decide quickly. I'm in a hurry.

You bitch!

Next time I see you,

I won't go easy on you!

- Do anything to her and I'll haunt you

and your kin forever.

Not that you'll have any kin
