The episode begins with Subaru reviving via ‘Return by Death’, mere minutes before Sirius’ plan goes into action.
2.1 Subaru’s Renewed Struggle with Sirius
Subaru soon discovers that Sirius’ abilities are far more dangerous than anticipated. Her power allows her to share emotions and physical sensations among her targets, making any injuries she suffers spread to those under her spell.
Affected by Sirius’ spell, Subaru quickly falls victim to her bladed chain weapon. Despite his fear of death, he courageously faces Sirius again after returning by death, seeking Reinhard’s help to defeat her.
2.2 The Battle Against Sirius
As Sirius’ influence grows over the crowd, Subaru summons Reinhard, but it’s too late. Sirius uses her powers to control the crowd’s emotions; even Subaru falls under her spell again.
When Reinhard arrives, he briefly frees Subaru and Rachins from Sirius’ control. However, as he engages her in battle, it becomes evident that even Reinhard isn’t immune to her abilities.
In a shocking twist, Sirius’ spell affects him and the crowd, leading to a brutal scene where everyone, including Reinhard, is seemingly killed.
2.3 Emilia Enters the Fight
After another revival, Subaru devises a new plan with Beatrice and Priscilla’s help. Despite their efforts, Emilia refuses to stay behind, insisting she fight alongside Subaru.
Sirius, enraged by Emilia’s presence, reveals her connection to Petelgeuse Romanée-Conti, claiming Emilia “stole” and killed her husband.
The two engage in a fierce battle, with Emilia holding her own until Regulus Corneas appears, setting the stage for even more intense confrontations in the upcoming episodes.
3. What’s next?
Season 3 deepens the stakes by revealing the terrifying extent of Sirius’ power and hinting at the Sin Archbishops’ plans for Emilia.
With Sirius’ abilities seeming to be way too powerful for even Reinhard, Subaru must find another way to protect Emilia and defeat the cult.
The episode leaves fans eager to see how the conflict will unfold in the coming episodes. We can expect to see action-packed episodes down the line, including a deep plotline of Subaru discovering and piecing together information to use against Sirius.
