Ep. 21

Summary

Source-backed · Version: v1 · Original

With Roswaal refusing to surrender, Subaru, Otto, and Garfiel race toward the mansion. Garfiel reveals that because only one of his parents was demi-human, he can cross the Sanctuary barrier and finally reunite with Frederica. At the graveyard, Ram asks Emilia to save Roswaal from the obsession that has ruled him for centuries. Roswaal tries to undermine Emilia by claiming Subaru only loves an idealized version of her, but she answers that Subaru knows her faults and chooses her anyway. She enters the second trial with renewed confidence. Ram confronts Roswaal beside Ryuzu’s crystal instead of waiting as ordered. Roswaal admits he stored mana to create snow and attract the Great Rabbit. Expecting revenge for his role in destroying Ram’s oni village, he is startled when Ram says she loves him and wants to free him from Echidna’s delusion. Puck joins her, using the remaining power from his broken contract. At the mansion, Elsa begins her assault on Frederica and Petra. Garfiel arrives in armor, reunites briefly with his sister, and takes over the fight against Elsa. Subaru secures Petra and heads for Beatrice, while every ally performs a role Roswaal’s Tome failed to predict.
