Re:Zero Light Novel Volume 7

 * Chapter 2
 * Subaru noting the details of the bear-like beast-man and extra dialog noting about Anastasia's mercenary group, the Fang of Iron, came from Kararagi, including the dialect, was removed.


 * Chapter 3
 * Most of the chapter retains the writing that was in the web novel with added/changed monologue and dialog.
 * Ricardo mentions that the mana repulsion crystals are very scarce instead of not knowing how many there is left.

Re:Zero Light Novel Volume 8

 * Chapter 1
 * Ricardo did not assist the ambush with Subaru and Wilhelm. And because of that, Wilhelm kills Petelgeuse by himself instead of Ricardo assisting Wilhelm for the kill.


 * Chapter 2
 * Most of Ricardo's dialog after killing Petelgeuse, including a spear impaled on his arm, was cut.
 * The entire loop where Subaru, Wilhelm, and the entire expeditionary force was killed by the female finger in Irlam Village was cut.
 * The cut part where Subaru wakes up in front of Ricardo from Returned by Death was cut and moved to the beginning of volume 9. Also, Subaru noting that his save point is updated was also moved.
 * Satella's dialog is cut and moved to volume 9 as a prologue.
 * Rajan's debut was moved to earlier into this volume instead of later on.


 * Chapter 4
 * Wilhelm became unconscious after defeating the 2nd finger and Ricardo, Mimi, and Tivey's whereabouts are unknown.


 * Chapter 5
 * The fight against Petelgeuse was changed to have Emilia and Petelgeuse fight one on one instead of having Subaru, Julius, Ricardo, Wilhelm, and Felix assisting Emilia.
 * Subaru, Julius, and Felix stayed back and watches the battle.
 * Emilia, Ricardo, and Julius did not witness Subaru's death as Wilhelm kills him.
 * Because the loop where Subaru gets killed by the female finger was cut, Subaru's death where he gets killed by Wilhelm considers as the 11th death instead the 12th.

Re:Zero Light Novel Volume 9

 * Chapter 6
 * Felix mentioning the Four Sages: Volcanica, Flugel, the first Sword Saint, and Shaula and mentioning Pleiades Watchtower was cut.
 * Subaru's conversation with Puck about Gluttony's Authority was cut.
