Re:Zero Episode 25

A Story That's Just That (ただそれだけの物語) is the twenty fifth and final episode of the Re:Zero anime.

Plot
With his senses connected to Subaru's, Julius was now able to cut down Petelgeuse's Unseen Hands with his swordsmanship. Furious that his devotion was being belittled by tricks, Petelgeuse began summoning more and more hands know that his fingers have been killed. In the process, he managed to injury Julius in his leg and shoulder. As the battle was occurring, Emilia is in the dragon carriage with the children. Wilhelm had a brief discussion with her, telling Emilia to not let go of the children's hands before saying that they were truly master and servant. As Emilia questioned him on this, she found out that Wilhelm had already left.

Returning back to the fight, Subaru starts feeling the pain from Julius's wounds and bemused that they must be crazy to entrust their lives on such an outlandish tactic. Julius merely responded that he was starting to get accustomed to the feeling and told Subaru that he would be raising his speed. Using Al Clauseria, Julius eliminated the Unseen Hands as he made his way to Petelgeuse. In response, the Archbishop of Sloth was forced to use earth magic to summon up a shield. However, Subaru threw a magical stone to ignite past the defense, allowing Julius to stab Petelgeuse in the stomach.
