I really hope the way she is finally defeated will follow organically from the story. Characters with reality warping powers need explained limitations otherwise simply defeating them seems unconvincing. Characters at that level of mystique, hype and power also require sacrifices imo otherwise defeating them will come across as cheap. What I'm trying to say is Pandora is a great villain that will hopefully get a good conclusion to her story.
I think she will. Fans have dived very deep into speculations on how exactly does her powers work or not work occasionally. First clue is why did she needed Regulus Corneas, in novels it was implied that he was cruely forced to be here against his own being, but he doesn't do a single damn thing and gets yeeted back into his mansion. Theory is that maybe she needed someone to acknowledge her existence, that would also tie in with the sin she is representing, Vanity - Vainglory. ''Vainglory can also be simply defined as “what other people think of a person” while pride can be summarized as “what a person thinks of himself.”'' For example Subaru return to death seems like a cheat power capable of reaching any future desired, until you realize that if you tie him up and keep him alive and in prison, he is defeated forever, just like that. Realization that popped into many heads when Garfiel captured him and didn't let him off himself. That means anyone knowing how Subarus powers work exactly could be absolute disaster for him and actually end him like that. Roswall knew about powers existence, just not how the time rewinding is triggered, but that already caused entire disaster of 2nd season to occur and led many events of 1st season probably. Same thing we know Satella is alive, but trapped, what if she is trapped in a way, technique or something that doesn't allow her to kill herself to return by death, stopping her in stasis or something ? Essentially stopping her for good, that seemed to be the only way to stop her anyway. From 3 heroes that took her down, sword saint, dragon and sage, the sage seems to represent the all knowing guy who did probably figure out on how to stop Satella, the sword saint and dragon would probably be able to kill Satella 10x over, but that result is pointless as she would just return by death. With everything said i believe Pandora story and her defeat if it comes to it will be great and masterfully detailed as well.
@@meowxd6167 Well Tappei once said Villains are tgere to be defeated in the context of Pandora. So depends if you see her as one or not. Personally I reslly like stories in which maybe not everything but some things work out for the main antagonists. So yeah I wouldn't be against her not being defeated, not at all in fact, I absolutely love the character from all I've seen/heard. But Tappei is too mich of an Emilia-Simp for that haha.
I’ve read that a possible limitation to her power is that she can only rewrite reality only if it’s within the realm of possibility. She can’t just say for example (spoilers for people who haven’t gotten to the later parts of Arc 4) “Betelgeuse kills Fortuna,” since Betelgeuse would never do something like that normally which was why she had to manipulate him into killing her.
I think her ability is linked to her own self-confidence. She believes whatever she says will happen, thus it does, which will be her undoing. When Subaru eventually faces her, she is going to kill him over and over again, only for him to use each return by death to get closer to her which cause Pandora to doubt herself to the point where he he can kill her.
listen i got spoiled about pandora and how op she actually is (i also saw her design) then once i saw the drees i just screamed "PANDORA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Definitely the best re:zero episode so far, Pandora's reveal and her Authority showdown were epic. And yes I admit it, she beats Spirit Blossom Kindred in beauty
Every authority we've been introduced to has some critical weakness that allows it to be overcome. Pandora is obviously limited in what she can rewrite, there's some kind of criteria. If there wasn't, she'd simply say "Emilia unlocks the seal" and that's the end. The fact she went to such lengths to get Emilia to aid her proves that she's unable to simply force her to cooperate with her authority.
Pandora is a High-Level Avenger Threat that in my theory, Subaru can not defeat the witch alone calling for a Crossover from Overlord and the other anime shows linked together in different universes
Perhaps her power requires an observer/witness/third party other than herself to fully take effect, works indirectly and it's limited in power and in scope (can't resurrect what's already dead/can't fully control the will of others) . Basically, Pandora/giver of command, the receiver (target or self) & observer. Observer is required to confirm reality has been tampered with or confirm what's basically a very powerful illusion no different than the actual reality. So pretty much the peak feat of this power is forced teleportation, auto resurrect self and "animate dead".
Pandora's power probably won't be activated without a third party. This means the observer. I guess that it is impossible to rewrite events without an observer. She therefore needs to bring someone with her, like Regulus, in case there is no observer.
*Confirmation?: Pandora or the witch of Vanity created Satella using Emila. This is because of the statement “Vanity is the progenitor of envy”. Progenitor meaning: Parent or what something is descended from. Guese also cried when he saw Satella, and cried when he saw Emilia.*
For real now, how can someone beat such strong characters in this specific universe? In the re:zero world they are like true gods, how can someone defeat beings like Pandora and the Bishop?
Oh yeah, it is indeed kind of sus that the cultists or Betelgeuse didn't kill otto when they met him. Perhaps it has to do with the gospel that Geuse had, perhaps it told him to capture otto or something.
It is Vainglory... She is literally powerless. All she can do is make people suffer an alterated sense of reality. Regulus wasn't there, their eyes were deceiving them. She wasn't there against Emilia, her eyes were deceiving her. And let us not forget how she easily altered Fortuna's perception of her and Emilia, along with Geuse. Her power is literally illusions and false senses, perhaps under the limitation that if she makes the illusion of someone such as Regulus, the illusion would behave like him. She doesn't have the power to resurrect people either, Geuse possessed a corpse, like others in the story a bit forward. Whenever she informs someone of something and something happens, it is her deactivating her power, not activating it.
I dont think Pandoras power is "reality manipulation" but rather a set of a few skills that include perception manipulation as the user sees fit, ofc she can also use teleportation as we know, also she is not a part of the 7 witches of sins, even her sin name is a cardinal sins apart from the famous seven deadly sins which leads to the sin of Pride, but on its own it seems that she is kinda like Reinheart with an overpowered skill set rather than one of the seven original witches of sin.
Vainglory’s power makes Pandora a walking paradox. Only another walking paradox might be able to finish her off. Three characters comes to mind. Kronika (Mortal Kombat), Reverse Flash Eobard Thawne (DC Comics) and Subaru Natsuki (Re:Zero)
Me: Watching episode The episode: Witch of _Vanity_ Me: upset because they used Vanity, and not Vainglory. This was my only complaint with the episode.
personally didnt like her anime design and dont think it fits her description at all, but the way the anime portrayed her abilities was really well executed so its a take what you can get situation ig
@@yujin-1907 no. pandora is more powerful than satella. as you can prolly see by now. satela is not the real final villain of this story. i would bet that pandora is stronger than satella and satella has been framed or manipulated by the all powerful pandora to act as the "villain" of that wirld
if i had to guess, subaru will probably be the one that dies instead. I dont feel like Pandora will be done in easily like petelguese did, since shes a witch too.
not sure, but for me. Rem have no relation toward Pandora. And both timeline are completely separate and different Although in the past, the gospel was written to destroy the onii village for the sake of against the power of onii god. Because it have to potential to post a threat to all the archbishop. Other than that idk
@@saucyxd8473 i saying if Subaru is equal to Flugel, Emilia to Satella in the same roll dues that mean Pandora loved Flugel so much just like Rem did did she become evil because Flugel fell in love with an oni
@@okbut3572 Rem don’t have the qualifications to obtain any kind of witch factor. Plus Pandora is still alive watching from the side line, Subaru is just a continuation of Flugel work, although they both isekai, and start off with a Sloth witch factor, I doubt Subaru is flugel since both existed in a different time.
@@okbut3572 This spark an idea that [ Spoiler ] My theory, In the upcoming episode, if you read the web novel, you will see that Emilia will be force to open the seal, because she is the key. Per hap that key “ Emilia “ will be force upon that once she activate, her spirit, body will be split into the cryptic version of Emilia that was seal inside. That cryptic Emilia will wander throughout the world and stumble into a tragic event, later she got absorb by the witch factor which later turn her into Satella.
My theory pandora is half elf Vainglory = pride + envy Crusch is relative of regulus and the last body of Betelgeuse is Crusch mother helena (green hair)
i like who they introduce her, and its no doubt that she had a lot power, and her look Like an innocent Girl is something ( its she need no weapons she is one, fast, and ya overpowered na i mean she is probably the cause of emilias frozen side story, maybe the cause of almost everything , rabbits, Wale, serpent, wichcult, i just think what her Goal is after she Breaks that seal and why she need to, i mean honest i were angry too if i were locked away asking myself what if Emilia had open the door before anyone needs to die Like OK wait i open it if you Stop harm others what if
If the other witches aren't evil, then would it be much of a stretch to think that this character may not be? Maybe she just needs to go to these measures to achieve a happy ending for all...
Pandora’s Vainglory Authority are enviable. Any user with said authority would be the luckiest people in the world: Vainglory User: The US presidential candidate that claims to be cryptocurrency friendly will win. Vainglory user: There is a 12 inch pizza with kosher salami, Italian sausage, bell peppers, pineapple, olives and banana peppers right in front of me The pizza appears in front of the user Vainglory user: No matter how many food i eat, i never get fat The Vainglory user eats the whole pizza and burps. Vainglory user: Pepeto Token will be a decent 100x investment for early buyers, but only if you don’t stake the asset when you acquire the presale of the asset because the amount will be locked for 7 days of mandatory staking while the crypto asset will tank like Pepe Unchained did.
What im wondering is what is inside the seal ? And fortuna seems to know her , when she said pandora should apologize to his brother and his wife ? Also pandora is like subaru shes using other people to do her bidding and also her ability to rewrite things , like subaru but subaru return by death is a lot better, so is it going to be return by death vs vain glory?
When emilia almost reached the seal I thought why didnt pandora just wish that emilia was there and when emilia arrived at the seal I was like ooohhh shit
Pandora new waifu? Will Subaru use his loli powers on her too? Also "excuse me lady, lawyers of a certain group of pink eyed, edgy individuals would like to have a word with you"
Once Subaru gets the authority of lust his loli attracting powers increse ten folds then making Pandora repent for her sins and be part of the Emilia camp
Hey web novel reader here so spoilers kind of, bit random but do you think Pandora will show in arc 7 or do you think the next what if will center around her
@@zyolid3083 I know I just liked the title Vainglory better. Just like how they went with Frozen Witch for Emilia instead of Witch of Glaciation. I just preferred one title over another.
What if pandora does not bent reality but everyone's comprehension of what is happening. She cannot dodge or come back to the world of the living or teleport anything or anyone. But she can let people interact with the a story she is telling and said story just keeps unfolding before her audience. Basically her power is to just bamboozle the shit out of everyone and everything as long as she can understand their feeling and behaviors. Reguleos was never in the forest to begin with, it was just a illusion all along.
The reason pandora can control the great mabeasts is because she is a witch. It is implied that the witches of sin have the power to control the black serpent, so I guess it is the same with the other 2... but can envy control them as well? Like I am sure one of Guese's fingers said that witches are capable of controlling the black serpent, but envy?
I have question has pandora use his power on Subaru or flugel? I have idea that pandora power doesnt work on ppl from a different world.. that just a theory.
It seems the representation of beauty in re:zero is a pale white and skinny girl with long straight hair. Also that kind of eyelashes, echidna and pandora shares equal appearance imo
Question, I didn't really watch s2 of re:zero yet idk why but is pandora like immortal? And if so, can the witch of envy or reinhard defeat her in any way possible or will it be an endless battle?
Wait wait wait.... How was Emilia alive 400 years ago? Everyone else has a reason for being there (either they die or are ageless) but Emilia doesn't seem the kind of character that was alive 400 years ago. She doesn't behave like that, which is something all the others do. I assumed the flashback was from 10-ish years prior to the start of the story :/
How to kill pandora its actually really simple a magic bomb (ones used by otto) and use spell known as shamack now why its works because pandoras sin "vangloria" translation attention hore pandoras powers only work on creatures that can perceive her or "see her" as result if you see her she can manipulate what you see basically illusion with a twist any "illusions" that pandora creates becomes reality if its observed So what happens if you idk remove your ability to perceive illusion using spell shamack and then blast pandora using a bomb now I understand that sounds simple and stupid so theres probability that she's more annoying then that for example if anyone and I do mean anything perceives pandoras dead body she will come back to life in that case how you deal with her ... Shamack, bomb with 50% chance of activating and a big box "pandoras box" if you will hahah esentualy put a bomb inside a box with 50% probability of going off (its important) use shamack to put pandora into a box close box and forget about it What happens is pandora ends up into quantum uncertainty situation "shrodingers cat" and if pandora observes bomb herself and it dont go off rest off the world do not know as result pandora authority will not affect others if bomb do go off rest off the world will not know because it's in the box that's surrounded by shamack as a result rest of the world will not know ^_^
might not be that simple, but I think Shamak may be a key factor to defeat her. It seems things regarding only herself, like her death, do not need a command to others (an observer). So she might be able to alter her own reality with only her present without the use of a command. I think the ability works with possibilities of reality. If you leave no way, no alternative in her abilitys capability, that she could survive something, as in she could not have stood somewhere else instead, then I think she would die.
I feel like she's not as powerful as she appears to be at first glance, she's just really smart with how she uses her Authority. I believe her power is altering people's perception of reality, to an extreme and very precise degree, but not being able to actually change it. So, for instance, in Elior Forest, she altered Regulus' perception of reality so that he thought he was in the forest, and she altered Geuse and Fortuna's perception that he was there, too, so they were able to interact. As a result of Geuse precieving Regulus as being there, he also precieved his attack as real, and thus the feeling of losing his arm, but it never actually happened. The thing is, though, she bluffs that she has outright reality warping powers. She made it seem like she was rewriting reality so that Regulus was never there and had always been in his mansion, but that actually _was_ the case the whole time, and him being in the forest was the illusion she created. Her line about not "overwriting [Geuse] being overtaken by the Sloth Witch Factor" is a bluff, too, since it's something that he actually did, and thus she can't change it. If she really is the final villain of Re:Zero, I think it'd also create a nice parallel with Subaru; Neither of them are actually that strong, but their Authorities make them appear powerful if used cleverly, and they also don't use their powers to their fullest extents due to self-imposed restrictions (Or else why didn't Pandora make Emilia precieve Fortuna telling her to open the Seal?)
I think her power is tied and limited to people only, which is why she had Regulus accompany her as her insurance. She needs to be perceived to alter the reality of someone. Since Regulus is untouchable she always had someone she can alter reality with. Example: Noone around. She says: there is no way that there was no tree at this spot. Doesnt work. Someone is there to perceive it, boom, there is a tree. There seem to be limits of what she can alter, as in she cannot claim impossibilties or alter stuff if other witch factors and powers are at play. A reason why she doesn't seem to die from anything may be because she altered her own reality, as in: there is no way I'd die.
She can change only phenomena from what I can see. It's not illusion. And if she can only affect phenomena then she can only change things that already happened. She cannot do anything about the future or the present just the past. This explains why she cannot gain control over emillia and is such an exceptional schemer because she cannot affect the present and future. She probably isn't that strong when it comes to combat because her authority does not support that. Echidna herself states that when is comes to sheer power emillia is far beyond pandora. She can't really fight without someone by her side. Although they might not be able to kill her when she's alone she also cannot kill them. Only be wary of her when she has someone by her side like regulus.
Vol 14 chapter 4, if my memory's not at fault. Though you shouls read chapter 2 since it is about the Sanctuary's past which the anime will cover later
Pandora can rewrite the damage to have never been inflicted on her. Tappei has confirmed that Authorities > Divine Protections so her authority will always trump any divine protection ability
Why do I get the feeling that rezero will end of subaru not present when emilia will finish off pandora?? And if Pandora can rewrite things? Can she rewrite authorities?
I do get similar feeling to be honest or even better when pandora dies all of her "reality modification bs disappear with her" esentualy undoing everything she had did in all her existence and puff Subaru is sitting next to sattela not emilia ^_^ because it was pandora that send Subaru into "future" Think of it Subaru and sattela went to fight pandora and pandora simply say you arrive 400 yers in future and everything Subaru did esentualy disappear with him but for some reason "love" sattela remember him and Subaru himself have to start from zero so he can eventually and finally "meet her" if you read any wn and especially "garden of shadows" parts you more less can see where I'm coming from
@@wouldyoureturntomonke2452 She can rewrite authorities because she states or implies in the anime, latest episode that "She will not rewrite Guese's state before consumed the witch factor" she did not imply that she "cannot" rewrite authorities

Perhaps her power requires an observer/witness/third party other than herself to fully take effect, works indirectly and it's limited in power and in scope (can't resurrect what's already dead/can't fully control the will of others) . Basically, Pandora/giver of command, the receiver (target or self) & observer. Observer is required to confirm reality has been tampered with or confirm what's basically a very powerful illusion no different than the actual reality. So pretty much the peak feat of this power is forced teleportation, auto resurrect self and "animate dead".

"Pandora did not have any weakness. She was made to be perfect by the gods"
For real now, how can someone beat such strong characters in this specific universe? In the re:zero world they are like true gods, how can someone defeat beings like Pandora and the Bishop?
You just need a Natsuki Subaru
Dude, almost everyone in re:zero is just too op. Like wtf are those monsters and wtf are those powers? Lmao
Well many characters are too op in rezero but they have limits also
by sneaky and dirty ways of course, the subaru way
@@ramennnoodle true
Oh yeah, it is indeed kind of sus that the cultists or Betelgeuse didn't kill otto when they met him.
Perhaps it has to do with the gospel that Geuse had, perhaps it told him to capture otto or something.
It is Vainglory...
She is literally powerless. All she can do is make people suffer an alterated sense of reality.
Regulus wasn't there, their eyes were deceiving them.
She wasn't there against Emilia, her eyes were deceiving her.
And let us not forget how she easily altered Fortuna's perception of her and Emilia, along with Geuse.
Her power is literally illusions and false senses, perhaps under the limitation that if she makes the illusion of someone such as Regulus, the illusion would behave like him.
She doesn't have the power to resurrect people either, Geuse possessed a corpse, like others in the story a bit forward.
Whenever she informs someone of something and something happens, it is her deactivating her power, not activating it.
Now watch as us web and light novel dweebs start screeching as we shout out all the theories we have on her without the fear of spoiling the story
For those currently reading arc 5, I just want to say there is a *HUGE* spoiler in this video. If you want to avoid it, skip from 2:49 to 3:01.
I dont think Pandoras power is "reality manipulation" but rather a set of a few skills that include perception manipulation as the user sees fit, ofc she can also use teleportation as we know, also she is not a part of the 7 witches of sins, even her sin name is a cardinal sins apart from the famous seven deadly sins which leads to the sin of Pride, but on its own it seems that she is kinda like Reinheart with an overpowered skill set rather than one of the seven original witches of sin.
Walking Deus ex machina
Vainglory’s power makes Pandora a walking paradox. Only another walking paradox might be able to finish her off. Three characters comes to mind. Kronika (Mortal Kombat), Reverse Flash Eobard Thawne (DC Comics) and Subaru Natsuki (Re:Zero)
Me: Watching episode
The episode: Witch of _Vanity_
Me: upset because they used Vanity, and not Vainglory.
This was my only complaint with the episode.
Basically has the same meaning so it's cool
The subs that i watched said vainglory like in the books
I have altered the like button to [REDACTED] likes
I doubt anyone saw what number it was before lmao
i see a fellow scp fan
personally didnt like her anime design and dont think it fits her description at all, but the way the anime portrayed her abilities was really well executed so its a take what you can get situation ig
she looks exactly like it was portrayed in the LN, maybe a bit shinier
@@DouglasDoMetal i think she looks significantly younger and the voice really didnt help that but hey maybe thats just me
I would love to see Pandora vs. Reinhard
@GeloYT Official Satella is more powerful then Pandora right or im wrong?
@@yujin-1907 no. pandora is more powerful than satella. as you can prolly see by now. satela is not the real final villain of this story. i would bet that pandora is stronger than satella and satella has been framed or manipulated by the all powerful pandora to act as the "villain" of that wirld
I think the author stated somewhere that Satella and Reinhard are still the strongest, but Pandora has Ultra Haxx, which is hard to counter.
0:48 song?
Someone to simp for.
I wonder if subaru can kill her by telling her he can return by death
if i had to guess, subaru will probably be the one that dies instead. I dont feel like Pandora will be done in easily like petelguese did, since shes a witch too.
Pandora hacking the world of Re:Zero
Can Pandora be the Rem of the past so she can be Flugel's Rem
some characters of now have equals of the pass
not sure, but for me. Rem have no relation toward Pandora. And both timeline are completely separate and different Although in the past, the gospel was written to destroy the onii village for the sake of against the power of onii god. Because it have to potential to post a threat to all the archbishop. Other than that idk
@@saucyxd8473 i saying if Subaru is equal to Flugel, Emilia to Satella in the same roll dues that mean Pandora loved Flugel so much just like Rem did did she become evil because Flugel fell in love with an oni
can Rem get authority of vainglory if she gets her memories back and still loves Subaru that much
@@okbut3572 Rem don’t have the qualifications to obtain any kind of witch factor. Plus Pandora is still alive watching from the side line, Subaru is just a continuation of Flugel work, although they both isekai, and start off with a Sloth witch factor, I doubt Subaru is flugel since both existed in a different time.
@@okbut3572 This spark an idea that [ Spoiler ]
My theory, In the upcoming episode, if you read the web novel, you will see that Emilia will be force to open the seal, because she is the key. Per hap that key “ Emilia “ will be force upon that once she activate, her spirit, body will be split into the cryptic version of Emilia that was seal inside. That cryptic Emilia will wander throughout the world and stumble into a tragic event, later she got absorb by the witch factor which later turn her into Satella.
Pandora is time travelling Emelia.
She is the most op loli ever
Regulus: wai-
Pandora: yeet
My theory
pandora is half elf
Vainglory = pride + envy
Crusch is relative of regulus and the last body of Betelgeuse is Crusch mother helena (green hair)
My theory that Emilia is to finish pandora off. Pandora is more Emilias enemy than Subaru’s.
i like who they introduce her, and its no doubt that she had a lot power, and her look Like an innocent Girl is something ( its she need no weapons she is one, fast, and ya overpowered na i mean she is probably the cause of emilias frozen side story, maybe the cause of almost everything , rabbits, Wale, serpent, wichcult, i just think what her Goal is after she Breaks that seal and why she need to, i mean honest i were angry too if i were locked away asking myself what if Emilia had open the door before anyone needs to die Like OK wait i open it if you Stop harm others what if
probably the same curse that elsa has kept her so young looking
If the other witches aren't evil, then would it be much of a stretch to think that this character may not be?
Maybe she just needs to go to these measures to achieve a happy ending for all...
Geuse sure didn’t get a happy ending
The seal in the elior forest is somehow connected to the original world of Subaru in my theory.
basically her power is "Because I said so"
Pandora’s Vainglory Authority are enviable.
Any user with said authority would be the luckiest people in the world:
Vainglory User: The US presidential candidate that claims to be cryptocurrency friendly will win.
Vainglory user: There is a 12 inch pizza with kosher salami, Italian sausage, bell peppers, pineapple, olives and banana peppers right in front of me
The pizza appears in front of the user
Vainglory user: No matter how many food i eat, i never get fat
The Vainglory user eats the whole pizza and burps.
Vainglory user: Pepeto Token will be a decent 100x investment for early buyers, but only if you don’t stake the asset when you acquire the presale of the asset because the amount will be locked for 7 days of mandatory staking while the crypto asset will tank like Pepe Unchained did.
pandora uses admin commands
she literally gave me chills holy fuck i wanna read the LN now
Vainglory is such a weird classification name when "Pride" is its synonym.
Jakez is literally my father
Jakez is literally your father
Jakez is literally my mother
Jakez is literally my kid

@@mtkira Uncle ?
Pandora use her authority
Proceeds to mommy. (Really, it's that scary to me)
I REALLY didnt think she sounded so high pitched.
Question: How does someone become a witch? Are witches born or made? If either, who is the mother/creator?
What im wondering is what is inside the seal ? And fortuna seems to know her , when she said pandora should apologize to his brother and his wife ? Also pandora is like subaru shes using other people to do her bidding and also her ability to rewrite things , like subaru but subaru return by death is a lot better, so is it going to be return by death vs vain glory?
the "seal" is actually the door to the modern world of subaru.
@@LeviAckerman-xt7dx wait really?
@@LeviAckerman-xt7dx that’s awesome theory
Pandora is like a Quintuplet Figure.
Is Puck Mother Fortuna?
yeah I'm thinking that too
fortuna is most likely sirius
"She goes Commando" '-' lol
If Pandora can look however she wished, and she looks like this. Thus she must be a lolicon!
I wonder if we will see Flugel in the future arcs
@Qurck what bout Satella then '_' cuz i think arc 11 will mostly be about Satella
i like her being nakeed
When emilia almost reached the seal I thought why didnt pandora just wish that emilia was there and when emilia arrived at the seal I was like ooohhh shit
She didnt do it and cant do it
@@omsivimeca7589 but I bet you she can manipulate those lesser spirits to lead Emilia there.
I want Pandora in my room
NO NO NOOOO don't get me wrong
FBI open up
Pandora new waifu? Will Subaru use his loli powers on her too?
Also "excuse me lady, lawyers of a certain group of pink eyed, edgy individuals would like to have a word with you"
Once Subaru gets the authority of lust his loli attracting powers increse ten folds then making Pandora repent for her sins and be part of the Emilia camp
The final enemy would be Stella as Subaru stated he would kill her
Pando: I love you!💓
Flugel: Sorry, I love Satella!
Is there a manga to read what’s happening recently in the anime I can’t find it
Manga is far behind the anime,you can read the Web Novel in Witchculttranslation.com
Theres no manga
Re zero is a light novel series
Hey web novel reader here so spoilers kind of, bit random but do you think Pandora will show in arc 7 or do you think the next what if will center around her
I hope we get more scenes with her in arc 7
Dang they are going with Witch of Vanity instead of Witch of Vainglory
vanity and vainglory is the same thing
@@zyolid3083 I know I just liked the title Vainglory better. Just like how they went with Frozen Witch for Emilia instead of Witch of Glaciation. I just preferred one title over another.
@@dragonnsv9710 understandable
@@zyolid3083 But the rule of cool !!!
What if pandora does not bent reality but everyone's comprehension of what is happening. She cannot dodge or come back to the world of the living or teleport anything or anyone. But she can let people interact with the a story she is telling and said story just keeps unfolding before her audience. Basically her power is to just bamboozle the shit out of everyone and everything as long as she can understand their feeling and behaviors. Reguleos was never in the forest to begin with, it was just a illusion all along.
The reason pandora can control the great mabeasts is because she is a witch. It is implied that the witches of sin have the power to control the black serpent, so I guess it is the same with the other 2... but can envy control them as well? Like I am sure one of Guese's fingers said that witches are capable of controlling the black serpent, but envy?
Shes kayuga in another dimension
I have question has pandora use his power on Subaru or flugel?
I have idea that pandora power doesnt work on ppl from a different world.. that just a theory.
Who is pandora!
Short answer: a "c word"
Long answer:
@GeloYT Official by "c word" I mean cunt. And by long answer I was referring to the video.
Who is more powerful pandora or regulus 🙄🙄
It seems the representation of beauty in re:zero is a pale white and skinny girl with long straight hair. Also that kind of eyelashes, echidna and pandora shares equal appearance imo
It is filter
Also she has platinum hair
Only emilia and satella have silver hair also fortuna
Echidna white hair
The embodiment of the authors fetishes basically
Question, I didn't really watch s2 of re:zero yet idk why but is pandora like immortal? And if so, can the witch of envy or reinhard defeat her in any way possible or will it be an endless battle?
Bro UA-cam not giving me notifications for what
All the tatsumaki fans gonna be adding a new waifu to their collection
jakez that one about theresia is a spoiler about arc 5 ;_;
Everything in anime is about the seven deadly sins. The witches of sin. Where are the wizards of virtue lmao.
Edit: I guess Reinhard is all of themx
Subaru is sage
Wait wait wait.... How was Emilia alive 400 years ago? Everyone else has a reason for being there (either they die or are ageless) but Emilia doesn't seem the kind of character that was alive 400 years ago. She doesn't behave like that, which is something all the others do.
I assumed the flashback was from 10-ish years prior to the start of the story :/
The flashback in this episode is from 100 years ago
Am I weird for actually really liking pandora
Nah same here bro
God tought i was the only one liking pandora
How to kill pandora its actually really simple a magic bomb (ones used by otto) and use spell known as shamack now why its works because pandoras sin "vangloria" translation attention hore pandoras powers only work on creatures that can perceive her or "see her" as result if you see her she can manipulate what you see basically illusion with a twist any "illusions" that pandora creates becomes reality if its observed
So what happens if you idk remove your ability to perceive illusion using spell shamack and then blast pandora using a bomb now I understand that sounds simple and stupid so theres probability that she's more annoying then that for example if anyone and I do mean anything perceives pandoras dead body she will come back to life in that case how you deal with her ...
Shamack, bomb with 50% chance of activating and a big box "pandoras box" if you will hahah esentualy put a bomb inside a box with 50% probability of going off (its important) use shamack to put pandora into a box close box and forget about it
What happens is pandora ends up into quantum uncertainty situation "shrodingers cat" and if pandora observes bomb herself and it dont go off rest off the world do not know as result pandora authority will not affect others if bomb do go off rest off the world will not know because it's in the box that's surrounded by shamack as a result rest of the world will not know ^_^
might not be that simple, but I think Shamak may be a key factor to defeat her.
It seems things regarding only herself, like her death, do not need a command to others (an observer). So she might be able to alter her own reality with only her present without the use of a command.
I think the ability works with possibilities of reality. If you leave no way, no alternative in her abilitys capability, that she could survive something, as in she could not have stood somewhere else instead, then I think she would die.
I feel like she's not as powerful as she appears to be at first glance, she's just really smart with how she uses her Authority.
I believe her power is altering people's perception of reality, to an extreme and very precise degree, but not being able to actually change it. So, for instance, in Elior Forest, she altered Regulus' perception of reality so that he thought he was in the forest, and she altered Geuse and Fortuna's perception that he was there, too, so they were able to interact. As a result of Geuse precieving Regulus as being there, he also precieved his attack as real, and thus the feeling of losing his arm, but it never actually happened.
The thing is, though, she bluffs that she has outright reality warping powers. She made it seem like she was rewriting reality so that Regulus was never there and had always been in his mansion, but that actually _was_ the case the whole time, and him being in the forest was the illusion she created. Her line about not "overwriting [Geuse] being overtaken by the Sloth Witch Factor" is a bluff, too, since it's something that he actually did, and thus she can't change it.
If she really is the final villain of Re:Zero, I think it'd also create a nice parallel with Subaru; Neither of them are actually that strong, but their Authorities make them appear powerful if used cleverly, and they also don't use their powers to their fullest extents due to self-imposed restrictions (Or else why didn't Pandora make Emilia precieve Fortuna telling her to open the Seal?)
I think her power is tied and limited to people only, which is why she had Regulus accompany her as her insurance. She needs to be perceived to alter the reality of someone. Since Regulus is untouchable she always had someone she can alter reality with.
Example: Noone around. She says: there is no way that there was no tree at this spot.
Doesnt work.
Someone is there to perceive it, boom, there is a tree.
There seem to be limits of what she can alter, as in she cannot claim impossibilties or alter stuff if other witch factors and powers are at play.
A reason why she doesn't seem to die from anything may be because she altered her own reality, as in: there is no way I'd die.
She can change only phenomena from what I can see. It's not illusion. And if she can only affect phenomena then she can only change things that already happened. She cannot do anything about the future or the present just the past. This explains why she cannot gain control over emillia and is such an exceptional schemer because she cannot affect the present and future. She probably isn't that strong when it comes to combat because her authority does not support that. Echidna herself states that when is comes to sheer power emillia is far beyond pandora. She can't really fight without someone by her side. Although they might not be able to kill her when she's alone she also cannot kill them. Only be wary of her when she has someone by her side like regulus.
She didn’t believe in pantsu
What chapter of the LN Should I read for after this episode
Vol 14 chapter 4, if my memory's not at fault. Though you shouls read chapter 2 since it is about the Sanctuary's past which the anime will cover later
I always thought Theresia would be able to damage pandora considering she has the blessing of the god of death.
Pandora can rewrite the damage to have never been inflicted on her. Tappei has confirmed that Authorities > Divine Protections so her authority will always trump any divine protection ability
Pandora the loli queen vs Subaru the lolimancer.
Can talknojustu save our hero?
Pandora has talk-no-jutsu already
Why do I get the feeling that rezero will end of subaru not present when emilia will finish off pandora??
And if Pandora can rewrite things? Can she rewrite authorities?
I do get similar feeling to be honest or even better when pandora dies all of her "reality modification bs disappear with her" esentualy undoing everything she had did in all her existence and puff Subaru is sitting next to sattela not emilia ^_^ because it was pandora that send Subaru into "future"
Think of it Subaru and sattela went to fight pandora and pandora simply say you arrive 400 yers in future and everything Subaru did esentualy disappear with him but for some reason "love" sattela remember him and Subaru himself have to start from zero so he can eventually and finally "meet her" if you read any wn and especially "garden of shadows" parts you more less can see where I'm coming from
@@wouldyoureturntomonke2452 She can rewrite authorities because she states or implies in the anime, latest episode that "She will not rewrite Guese's state before consumed the witch factor" she did not imply that she "cannot" rewrite authorities
