Fujii shared that this chapter was a long and challenging process, from the first sketches to the final product. But it is not for less: the episode was loaded with action and intense battles, and that requires a first level animation. White Fox, the study by “Re: Zero”, had already demonstrated its commitment to quality by dividing the season into two parts of eight episodes each, with a pause of months among them. This level of detail and careful work is noted in each frame.
One of the episode animation directors, Haruka Sagawa, also talked about the process and left this comment on networks: «This episode was an intense madness, I learned a lot! In addition, working on him was super fun. Thanks for your incredible effort!». To which Fujii responded with gratitude, highlighting that “all the characters looked great and adorable.” Haruka Sagawa also shared a Priscilla illustration and made it clear that this has been his favorite episode so far.
The director Masahiro Shinohara Shinohara had already advanced in an interview that his plan was to start with everything from the first episode, and has undoubtedly achieved it. “Re: Zero” led the popular lists after its premiere and remains of the most commented anime. After a year and a half of work, this episode made it clear that the wait was worth every second. Is this one of the most epic moments in the series?
