What Are Sage Candidates? | Re: Zero Explained
Фильм және анимация
Have you ever wondered what a sage is, or what a sage candidate is when it comes to re: zero? Are there any more sage candidates apart from subaru? What about other characters? What is the qualification to become a sage. These are things covered in this video and it comes with some unlikely sage candidates.

Re: Zero is one of the most interesting isekai anime that has come out in the past few years. The story revolves around Natsuki Subaru being transported from Earth to a new world and he is granted one simple power: "Return By Death". Subaru must use this newfound power to save those he cares about, such as Emilia, Rem, Ram, Petra, Otto and Garfiel and more.
Who is Satella and why did she grant subaru this power? What is the motivation behind the witch cult which have members such as Petelguese the sin archbishop of sloth? These are some of the questions I'll tackle on this channel, I hope you enjoy it and most importantly also enjoy season 1 and season 2 of Re: zero and hopefully it does well enough to warrant a third season covering arc 5 (Season 3 re: zero).

As a minor point, we can't be sure if Subaru has the envy factor or if his RBD is simply Satella activating her own authority on him.

There’s a good chance that currently Subaru is the only Sage candidate we’ve met so far. 1. We do know that Shaula recognized Subaru as Flugel by their sense of smell. It’s pretty obvious that what she’s talking about is his miasma since from the beginning Subaru has had it. 2. If we assume for a fact that Flugel had multiple witch factors and is needed to become a safe. Than so far right now Subaru is the only one who can become one. Since the archbishops have witch factors we can’t just say they’re all sage candidates if we look at someone like Betelgeuse. 3. It might be mandatory to at least have relationships with a witch. Not exactly romantically but any type of relationship. We know from Volcanica that Reid, Flugel, and Satella knew each other. And if we assume that Flugel had something with Satella then that might be another requirement. Since we know Satella loves Subaru. 4. Finally someone has already said this but Subaru seems to be the only person to resist Witch Factors to an extent. We do know that he can remember people even if they’ve been erased from reality and as well as Pleiades tower is also able to remember people who have been erased as we look at Emilia. This can cross out Al since he can’t remember Julius after his name was eaten.

My theory is that a sage has mastery over their sins and by extension the authorities associated with them. Conversely, a witch of an archbishop is controlled by their sins and their authority. No one calls Subaru a sage until he has both acquired the sloth factor and rejected the sin of sloth by not running away with Rem.

Emilia being a safe sound off because you must at least be compatible with the factor statella is a perfect example of that plus of the death of greed with reainard Emilia and Subaru there the witch gene went straight into Subaru instead the other other
Something I noticed in that section of LN you brought up is that immediately after that Echidna essentially says that Subaru should know a lot more about the witches and the current situation than he actually does. That Subaru’s entire situation is very weird and something of a massive exception to the norm. This implies that getting invited to a tea party would usually be what someone with the necessary works toward getting the qualifications for it. With how hard it seems to become a sage, Subaru has been going through this process just by naturally going through events. We’re probably just being trolled by Tappei and there’s just too little information to go off of.

Finally someone made a video about the meaning of sage in Re zero
There's a connection between Echidna, The Sage, and Being an isekai character for sure which can bridge the possibility of becoming a Sage-Candidate. Speaking in terminologies the sage is a long-living magic-caster who is more known for their exceptional wisdom and incredible foresight. Wisdom and Foresight is not the thing we readers would imagine when looking at Subaru, but to the other characters of the franchise? he will be seen as that one guy who has incredible foresight that leads his allies out of danger's grasp. It hasn't been confirmed, but the first sighting of a sage ONLY APPEARED in the time of the witches. If you think about it Echidna should be qualified as a Sage but instead became a witch of Greed because not once she's used her foresight at the guise of wisdom, but rather Greed. I think I heard somewhere that Flugel has a connection with Echidna, and it just might be that the Sages has to have Echidna's "Approval" (a lack of a better word) to become proper Sages. Whether it be the form of a trial like Subaru, or a QnA so to speak about the life of the Isekai character before arriving in the Re: Zero World. The reason why Emilia wouldn't qualify for a sage in her trial, would be because Echidna already knows about her and/or does not find her story interesting, as compared to the isekai characters who have lives outside of Re: Zero world and outside the reaches of Echidna's seemingly omniscient mind. That part's an assumption based off of Witch authorities not having as much a conceptual effect on Isekai characters, see the batenkaitos plundering of names and memories. Needless to say every Isekai character in Re: Zero are nothing short of amazing, absolutely phenomenal. Hoshin started an entire nation with his Wisdom as a merchant, and Flugel saving the world alongside two other heroes. Aldebaran has a reality-affecting ability and Subaru has a time-looping ability. However you look at it, each one can easily be associated with the traits of a Sage, it being wisdom and foresight. Echidna could have been a Sage, but she is no Hero, she is a Witch of Greed. Note: I'm fairly certain Echidna and The Sage knows each other judging by Kasaneru Echidna's remarks about help from the sage being unrealistic. Other Note: These are all an educated guess lmfao.

Jakez the sage
I’m gonna laugh if it turns out that time travel doesn’t happen at all. That would destroy almost every theory in existence about the sage.
for what i could find in the novel materials, extra stories included, we know that: 1) flugel which is a sage did possessed at least 2 witch factors -- emilia second trial when petelgeuse and regulus talk to eachother it is inferred he used the same box with sage bones to acquire the authority of greed 2) in the extra story after tea witch party, we get to now that a sage can resist the effect of every miasma from every witch, which is the same power archbishop have by the way (see petelgeuse fight and his Sloth miasma inducing crazyness). also a sage can use the power of all the witches, as stated by echidna herself. (this can be methaporical or phisical) 3) the pleiades watchtower rules ignores the effects of authorities, since emilia is recognised by raid as someone who beaten the trial despite the authority of greed stripped her from her name. since that tower costruction is connected to the sage we can infer a sage has resistance/immunity to authorities as well. We can say that a sage probably has the duty to keep authorities sealed away from the world so that nothing bad could happen. Thats all we can say for now

I'm personally sure on this idea of mine that says anyone who has the potential to overcome all the sins either through curse or blessing is someone candidate to being a Sage. There are people that can only live their lives through the lense of one sin, they can't become a sage, people who *can* experience all since but get drowned in life by one could have been a candidate but they won't become one either. Subaru is an exception because, with RBD he can live the intensity of any of the sins, dying breathing that concept and come back to a checkpoint with his sanity safe. He's reached the point where in concept he's a supernatural figure in the re: zero world, normal people would dread in their souls to the sight of Gospels and Witches, yet as someone basic and virtually zero blessings he's still fine despite it all.

Well he got the first witch factor when he killed Petelguese before he met Echidna but you do raise a point. Pride Subaru didn't seem to acquire any witch factors in spite of killing at least two sin archbishops that we know of. It's kind of odd that he didn't get their factors. One possibility is that for each witch factor he obtains there is a complimentary IF story that shows Subaru overcoming that 'sin.' Perhaps the problem was that the Pride Subaru never overcame his Sloth or his Greed and thus was not compatible with the witch factors in this time line.

Unlock his full potential in term of power and using it to turn the tide of the final battle. That would be the moment everyone in the battlefield see him as the great sage.

“From arc 6” Oh ok not for anime onlys
Nice video. I don't have much to add but truthfully I do hope Subaru becomes the Sage rather than Emilia. I know the whole series is about Subaru being weak and Subaru suffering but I like the "hero's journey" and I'm hoping that by the end of the series Subaru actually does obtain some real power. RPGs in general and isekais in particular tend to be power fantasies. I love how Subaru doesn't have power at first but I think the best ending would be if by the end Subaru does gain power and can stand beside Emilia as an equal because by then he has earned that power. It wasn't given to him on a silver platter he fought and leveled his way up throughout the series and in arc 11 he should be able to help fight the raid boss once he's geared up at max level.

@@s.m.g.2391 Relationships should be matches of equals. Emilia is extremely powerful but she is also currently an overgrown child who is slowly becoming wiser and more determined due to her experiences and Subaru's influence. Prior to Arc 4 she seemed willing to give up very easily and was also cripplingly naive. Subaru is actually fairly wise and his determination is inhuman. I'm not sure he really has a lot of character growth left to go through, he really has established himself as a hero in a pinch already. I really want to see Subaru gain the kind of power Emilia possesses because arguably he has earned it and Emilia growing as a character while Subaru does not have much character growth to experience and he would need to grow in terms of capability. The only remaining character growth I can think of for Subaru is deciding that he needs to let the people he cares about go 'for the greater good' and I SO don't want to see that ending. I've often wondered if the end of re:zero was intended to be Emilia making a heroic sacrifice for the sake of the world at the cost of her life or existence in this world and Subaru needing to accept that. Come on Tappei, don't be cruel. The poor kid has suffered enough already.

@@mattmagliocca956 I believe Subaru next character development is to truly love himself. It's true that Satella already taught him in arc 4 but I think arc 4 is about Subaru stop rely on RBD and let others take control of their own life and bear their own burden instead of trying to solve their problem for them and sheild them from everything like what Puck did to Emilia(That why Puck broking the contract is one of the cause of Emilia's growth) . The moment that snap Subaru out of wanting to keep abusing RBD is the realization he have the people that love him and not that he should love himself. The evidence is mention of self harm in arc 6 and the fact that everyone else grow so fast that Subaru felt inferior to them. I think Arc 6 is about Amnesia Subaru learning to believe in himself instead of trying to murder and get the Subaru that he believe is the hero back. I believe it will motivate him to train even harder because remember, the royal selection have 3 year and it's currently 1 year where the WN left off. This mean that Subaru will be stronger as time pass and arc 5-6 development of everyon else serve as a motivation for him to keep improve his capability. Arc 7 and 8 might be where Subaru improve a lot but still see himself as not good enough and start to fall under depression that he don't deserve his people's love. That when the suffering kick in just like Arc 3 where he become emotionally unstable, but the one taking Ep.18 Rem's role this time is Emilia who confess her love for him(I predict that it will happen at Arc 8 because 1. Following the pattern that 2 arc always happens immediately after one another 1-2/3-4/5-6. And Tappei Q&A state that Subaru will get kidnapped by the witch cult at some point. If arc 7 and 8 are connected then Subaru likely get kidnapped at the end of Arc 7 because petra will appear again in Arc 8 signifies that arc 8 might be about Emilia's camp. 2. Remember that Sirius get captured in arc 5. I think Sirius will be the one leading Emilia's camp to rescue Subaru at the witch cult so that they would be defeated by Capella and possibly pandora. 3. The reason arc 5 didn't have theme of sin vs virtue for Subaru is because it have to highlight Subaru's growth after 1 year instead. I believe that if these arc follow the same pattern, then Arc 7 would be the same as Arc 5 and Arc 8 would be the theme of LUST and Love. If thing follow this pattern, then this prediction will match perfectly. Arc 8 will be hell loop of Subaru try to Survive the witch cult and Capella alone like arc 3 and Emilia would be the one snap himself out of the self hatred by point out what she love about him just like Rem did, but this time it will make more impact on Subaru because Emilia will be the one confess to him and trigger his SECOND TRANSFORMATION AS A PROTAGONIST Tappei mention) I believe that I just went overboard there but well...

Not particularly relevant, but I wonder what How Subaru ended up in the middle of Luginica, no one really reacted like he just appeared out of no where, and he had his phone and bag of food, but what if his memories had been erased, and he had actually went though a while life without dieing, met satella, fell in love, but made some contract and gained rbd, but after during for the first time, he sent back to when he first entered the world, so without relaxing had actually met satella, somehow, the entire existence of such an idea is mostly based on how it would explain him knowing satella, just wanted to throw some Subaru ideas out there

@@theonewhoasked7254 I think Envy allows you to make weak copies of the other Authority powers. If Al is Pride then he has the ability to redo certain phenomenon at will. Satella might be using the same trick on Subaru but since her replication of the Authority of Pride is weaker, Subaru needs to die to trigger it and it's a flat temporal rewind rather than forcing people to experience their enemy coming back over and over again. We've also seen Satella replicate the Unseen Hand and her immortality might be a weaker form of Pandora's authority. It's just an idea. P.S. The story says that Satella consumed the other witches but we know how they each died and Satella doesn't appear to have been involved. Maybe people thought she consumed the others purely because she has the power to copy their abilities and a legend sprung up around that.

Well we have to do a lot of speculating here because I'm really sure we don't know what the hell happened four hundred years ago or how Satella was involved in it. Personally, I really hope that in arc 11 Subaru does gain real power and become someone who can stand beside Emilia as an equal by gathering all the Authorities. I think that would be the perfect way to pay off the hero's journey since by arc 11 by most estimations Subaru would have earned the right to be an overpowered badass. RPGs are all about slowly gaining power and skills until you're ready to fight the boss.

The authorities can only be used safely to their full potential by someone who has overcome those flaws in themselves; i.e. a sage.

@@LuckySevn717 True but by then he is able to use it effectively to crush Regulus's heart when its in Emilia. Subaru's unseen hand is not a weapon (or at least not an effective weapon yet) and we can debate why it seems weaker than Petelguese's version and if that might change. Petelguese was explicitly not compatible with the witch factor so this might be a hint that because Subaru can control his witch factor (as opposed to the factor controlling him) it's going to be weaker until he achieves mastery over it. Just an idea. A possible alternate theory might be that he struggles with unseen hand because that is NOT his sloth ability. The author claims that the witch factor gives everyone an ability based on their personality. Subaru didn't get a 'new' version of a sloth ability. At the moment Subaru is trying to copy the arts of the bag guys instead of using the Authorities organically so his versions of the bad guys abilities are limited. Subaru's mastery over Greed seems to be pretty significant in Arc 6 and it may also be worth noting that he's using a power Regulus didn't seem to have (or would never have bothered to use due to his narcissism) and is in fact a complete reversal of how Regulus used his power.
I might be wrong since I read Arc 4 Webnovel so long ago so I highly doubt im right. But, didn't Roswaal or someone told Subaru that losing someone special to him was important for becoming a sage? Again I don't remember this very well and I'm probably gking crazy.

Roswaal specifically said that he created the situation in arc 4 to harden him and turn him into a knight ridden in wound so that he will walk the path of a "Sage". However, Subaru chose to save everything, which is a much thorny path so the path of a "Knight". From my understanding, what Roswaal tried to do is to make him walk that path because Sages usually suffer a lot while Knights are more keen on protecting.
Hasn't Emilia been called The Witch of Glaciation? Are we sure she doesn't have her own, natural born, Witch Factor? I haven't read all the side stories, but I have heard that there were other Witches besides the "sin" witches. Also, does Garfiel actually have the qualifications to attend a tea party? Iirc he only took the 1st trial in Echidna's tomb, I don't remember him actually attending a tea party in the webnovel, light novel, or anime.
So Aldebaran and and Hoshin of the wilderness could be sage candidates?
Tappei : write that down write that down
I think him being a sage has somethingto do with being able to withstand or being able to see or understand witches authorities. There has been some hints that Subaru somehow is immune to certain influences of the cultist powers. Like seeing the hands and the control of the witch of lust.

Wasn't it clearly once said that Subaru won't become *the* Sage, because a Sage is someone that saves *everyone*? Can't pinpoint the source anymore. Was prolly WN by translationchicken. Don't believe Tea Party means anything as "you are able to enter the dream castle". More like it refers to being able to endure the witches, especially multiple witches as one Also remember that Beako and Roswaal always avoided the topic of Sage candidate when Subaru asked. Sometimes wonder, don't spirits and contractors share their memories or sth like that? Atleast Puck had quite an impact on Emilia memories. Anyways, thats beside the point. Back to sage candidate stuff. Does anyone know if Subaru ever asked Shaula about it?

This video in a nutshell; Im going to say the same thing over and over and over again.
One, on your sage candidate checklist there was a souls born reference that I found on point. Get gud, seriously subaru would’ve done better if he played some bloodborne before he got transferred. Second, doesn’t Roswell give examples on the state of mind a sage has to be in to? Something along the lines of loosing everything so his mentality is harder to break? Let me know if I’m wrong but I think it’s in the sanctuary during one of their arguments and he tells subaru how he’s sposed to become a sage for his plans.
