'Re:Zero' Director Masaharu Watanabe says the Hardest Episode he worked on was EP 15:
"I spent so much time on the direction of that episode, focusing on how to portray "madness." I've never spent so much time on the direction of an episode, from the layout and music to the subtle facial expressions."
"I especially remember redoing the scene where Petelgeuse licks Subaru's eyeball many times, paying close attention to the subtle movements of his tongue and the angle of his saliva."

WHITE Fox on How Long it takes to Produce a 'Re:Zero' Episode:
"It takes about 3 to 6 months to complete one episode of an anime, and Re:Zero is basically the same. However, if an episode has a lot of action, the timeframe can be longer. EP 60 took 10 Months to Complete."
VAI iMPACTAR! 🔥☠️⚔️
Hidekazu Hara, que trabalhou no PRIMEIRO Episódio de THE PROMISSED NEVERLAND 🌹será encarregado da direção/storyboard do tão aguardado EPISÓDIO 3!
ICE JUST TOLD ME THAT THE ANIME VERSION OF THE CAVE SCENE IS EVEN BETTER THAN THE SOURCE MATERIAL. I HAVE NEVER SEEN HIM GLAZE AN EPISODE THIS MUCH. HE GAVE IT A 9.35/10, WHICH IS MASTERPIECE LEVEL BY HIS STANDARDS, HIGHER THAN ANYTHING IN S3. I CANNOT WAIT TO SEE THIS CINEMA.
HOLY FUCKING SHIT MAN
I 100% agree about the sound direction, it's fucking crazy, especially during the scene where Anastasia's upper half is hanging onto Subaru and all her guts are falling out and then in another scene where Patrasche is eating Ram's head and then eats Subaru's head, the sounds are so nauseatingly realistic + the visuals are so fucking grim, like REALLY fucking grim, they nailed the gore, facial expressions and the flow from one scene to the next so fucking well (can't believe they were allowed to show this much gore lol), the voice acting + boards/direction/animation as well during this part is really fucking good, so is the fight against the Centaur, the action boards are peak asf, great animation too
INSANE fucking episode, i agree that it's definitely the best in Season 3 and 4 (so far)
