Madison here - I have a ReZERO theory (Patreon)
Content
hey guys!
Corbin and I just got on the road home from christmas with my family and we were talking about ReZero, kind of rehashing what the story's actual progression has been, taking the return by death out of it to the extent that we can.
While having this discussion, I had what might be considered a brain blast (iykyk). We have not yet started s3. I just want my theory dated and timestamped for the record LOL
PLEEEEASE DO NOT CONFIRM OR DENY - NOT A HINT, INSINUATION, NADA - I just want a time stamp in case I'm right.
SPOILERS FOR RE ZERO SEASON 2
I think Mama Fortuna - or a sister, I'm wondering maybe a twin? - is somehow Satella or the Witch of Envy (I think that's the right lady, the one who has the shadowy powers and was in the mourning garb). I came to this theory when we were talking about Beetlegeuse's story. We were discussing how when we first met Beetlegeusenin s1, he was all "HOW DOES HER LOVE HANG AROUND YOU SO DENSELY??" and "DOES SHE LOVE YOU ABOVE ME?" or some mess like that.
Well, when we meet regular degular Geuse in s2, he doesn't speak that way - UNTIL he's killed Fortuna and talks about love as a tangible entity after Pandora's "love can never be wrong" bs in his ear. And folks KEPT talking about how much Emilia looks like Satella but she also looked notably like Fortuna.
Is he somehow able to sense a Fortuna-esque energy? Is Satella's love somehow an extension of love for Emilia? His love for Emilia reflects her (Satella's) own? THESE ARE RHETORICAL QUESTIONS.
anywho, I love this fkn show - it's like a constant brain teaser, but in anime form, WHICH MAKES IT BETTER
