Re:Zero Season 3 Episode 4: Release Date, Time, Where To Watch, Synopsis & Preview Images
A lot happened in Re:Zero Season 3 episode 2. Not only did the Witch Cult kidnap Emilia, but they also took the whole of Priestella city hostage, demanding that they hand over the remains of a Witch that lay buried somewhere in the city.
On top of that, Garfiel and Mimi are having their own problems to deal with, as Gorgeous Tiger got to meet his long lost mother, and was now put in a difficult spot. However, after coming to terms with his emotions, Garfiel has now taken the decision to rescue his half siblings and their father from the grasp of the evil Capella Emerada Lugunica.
Re:Zero Season 3 episode 3 will focus on Garfiel mounting an attack on Priestella’s city hall. However, are he and Mimi strong enough to win this battle?
Re:Zero Season 3 Episode 4 Preview:The official website of Re:Zero season 4 revealed the premise of episode 3. It is as follows:
Garfiel and Mimi arrived at the square in front of the city hall, searching for the children of Liara who had gone out to play but hadn’t returned. There, they found the bodies of dozens of Priestella’s guards, ruthlessly cut down, lying on the ground. Standing in front of them were a massive figure wielding two large swords and a Witch Cultist with a single-edged blade. Through a Metia, the wicked laughter of Capella Emerada Lugunica, the Witch Cult’s Sin Archbishop of Lust, echoed across Priestella.

The Emilia camp, preparing for the royal selection, had been enjoying peaceful and fulfilling days with everyone united.
However, that tranquility comes to an end when a single letter arrives, delivered by a messenger. The letter is an invitation addressed to Emilia from Anastasia to the city of water gates, Priestella, one of the five major cities of Lugunica and a candidate for the royal selection.
Accepting the invitation, Subaru and his companions head to Priestella, where various reunions await them. Some are unexpected, some are unintentional, and one is yet to come. Beneath the surface, malevolent forces stir, and an unprecedented crisis looms.
Once again, the young man faces a harsh and challenging fate.“
