Meili's Past Revealed in Re:ZERO's Third Season: Episode 10 Trailer Released
The preview trailer for the 10th episode of the third season of Re:ZERO – Starting Life in Another World focuses on the past of Meili, one of the series' intriguing side characters. According to Anime Corner's report, this episode will detail the young girl's story, which has remained behind the scenes until now.
The third season, full of surprises that have amazed the audience in previous episodes, follows Subaru and Emilia's adventures in Watergate City. Meili is a character who stands out with her past connected to the Witch Cult and her mysterious abilities. The trailer hints at her childhood and the traumatic memories that shaped her decisions.
The creator of the light novel and anime series, Tappei Nagatsuki, hinted in previous interviews that Meili's story would add significant depth to the main plot. The production, animated by White Fox, received great acclaim with its first season (2016), while the second season (2020-2021) captivated fans with the Sanctuary Arc. The third season is a new story arc that began in October 2024 and adapts Arc 5 (Watergate).
While this episode is expected to answer questions about who Meili is, it is also likely to provide clues related to the new threats Subaru faces. In particular, developments concerning Regulus Corneas and the other Sin Archbishops may reveal the keys hidden in Meili's past.
For fans, this episode means not only deepening a side character, but also an opportunity to understand the series' complex timeline and character motivations. Episode 10 will air in the week of November 25, 2024 (Japan time). After that, together with the remaining episodes of the season, we will move toward the grand finale of Arc 5.
