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

I haven't seen you before.

What is a woman doing here so early in the morning?

Oh, don't worry about it.

Just come here.

Hey...

Do you like flowers?

Troops—

Let him have it!

Al Huma!

Troops! Follow those two fools!

They're firing the night-banisher!

Close your eyes!

Whoa...

It's just like everyone said! Incredible!

That's... the White Whale?

It's so huge...

Are you scared?

Yeah, I'm scared...

of the blindingly bright future

where I'm praised for defeating it!

Now, let's run like hell!

Yes.

It's so fast!

You greatly underestimate us,

looking away so carelessly.

The intangible sword with no regard for range...

That's Crusch-sama's sword art,

famous for its Hundred-Man Strike.

Disperse!

Disperse!

For fourteen years,

I have dreamed of nothing but this day.

Fall here, and leave your corpse behind.

You're nothing but a monster!

How wonderfully cooperative of you,

coming here to be slain!

Oh, crap!

Don't you look away from us, moron!

Here we go!

Everyone, now!

Troops, get back!

Fire at its flank!

Algoa!

Looks like that was pretty effective!

I think we can pull this off!

No, in truth,

we had hoped that attack would ground it.

It's not losing altitude at all...

We used all of our best attacks right from the get-go.

If that didn't make it fall,

that means it's a lot tougher than we thought.

The magic attacks didn't work?

Its white hair scatters mana and disperses force.

My magic wasn't as effective as it appeared, either.

Fire!

Time for the second campaign.

Hack away at its reserve power!

Acting as a decoy now would just be a hindrance.

So all we can do is watch until it makes a move?

I feel just as irritated as you do.

I don't even have any attacks,

so all I can do is watch, anyway.

But with your healing specialty, you're our lifeline.

Just fulfill that role for us!

We're counting on you!

You've really changed in just one day, huh?

What happened?

If I had to say,

I've just become a slightly better man.

Wilhelm-sama is...

Upsy-daisy!

Miserable.

What is that?

Something's odd...

What's going on?

The color of its eye...

Have you grown to like flowers?

No, I hate them.

Why do you wield that sword?

Because this is all I have.

It disappeared?

We're going to move! Hang on!

Troops, retreat!

Retreat!

Retreat! Re—

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!

That's what the magic fog looks like?

If that hits us...

How many men did we lose?

Twelve from my unit.

We're three short now.

Who was lost?

I don't know.

Fourteen from mine.

One deserted.

I'm missing six. I'm sorry.

No one was riding on the opposite side of me.

Who is Rem?

Rem... Who is that?

You've forgotten Rem, too?

That's it...

People hit by the White Whale's fog

vanish from existence, along with all memories of them.

The Fog of Elimination...

You're back?

Forgive my haste.

What are the damages?

A total of twenty-one lost.

It appears one whole platoon was wiped out.

It won't even be possible

to properly protect the honor of those lost.

My apologies.

Why do you wield that sword?

Because I couldn't think

of any other way to protect.

Now that it's in the fog,

we don't know where it will attack from.

Staying close together is the worst thing we can do.

Disperse immediately—

What is that?!

Is that the White Whale?

Hey! What's wrong?!

Hey!

Hey! Rem!

That voice is the fog directly attacking our minds...

It's similar to mana sickness,

but much worse...

Some people can resist it, and some can't?

I don't feel anything...

It's all right.

It will calm down now.

Hey!

Enough! Stop it!

Felis!

Have the unaffected help them!

They say hurting people is harder on an army than killing them,

but what monster does that?

Move!

I guess Felis can remove the effects of the fog's contamination,

but there's not enough time.

If it comes for us now, we're finished.

Crusch-san!

I'll buy us time.

Have everyone regroup!

What?

Rem, sorry, but I need you to come with me to the most dangerous place here!

Of course. Anywhere.

Wait, Natsuki Subaru!

In this fog...

Anyone who can hear me, cover your ears!

Anyone who can't, stay where you are!

I'll Return by Death to—

I'm back!

Well, Rem?

Do I smell like the witch?

Yes! You reek!

That's what I wanted, but did you have to say it that way?!

Those who can move, get the injured to the foot of the tree!

We'll have to use a bit of force.

With the ulgarm,

it was effective enough to cover the whole forest.

What will it do this time?

Honestly, it's an unknown quantity...

No, it's working.

It's coming...

It's coming! Here it comes!

Ul Huma!

How?!

Sis! Together!

Captain!

I got this!

Rem!

Looking away from me? How unfriendly.

And after I've spent the past fourteen years utterly mad for you!

This is startin' to get fun!

It's more sturdy than expected, but not all that strong!

No, it's putting up less of a fight than it should.

I find it hard to believe this mabeast

got the better of my wife, a Master Swordsman.

The fact that we got the jump on it,

and that it didn't use its fog to divide our forces to start with—

I'll take one more thing before I leave!

Wilhelm-san!

Be alert!

We don't know where it'll come from!

What's up?

It ain't gonna follow us?

It comes!

The fog's coming down!

Run!

Hey, have you grown to like flowers?

What is it?

There was talk of conferral,

and I became a knight.

Well, congratulations!

So you're one step closer to your dream.

My dream?

You wield a sword so you can protect, right?

A knight is someone who protects another.

I don't want... to die...
