Subaru Natsuki, having lost a year of memories, is re-learning the dynamics of the group. Julius, a knight who was once a rival and later an ally, is the target of the chopstick attack. The scene is a callback to their earlier antagonistic relationship, which Subaru no longer remembers. The season's two-arc structure was confirmed alongside the clip's release. The Loss Arc focuses on the aftermath of Subaru's memory loss, while the Recapture Arc will shift to a new conflict. The cast includes returning voice actors such as Yusuke Kobayashi as Subaru and Rie Takahashi as Emilia, as well as new additions like Tomokazu Sugita as Reid Astrea. The clip is available on Crunchyroll's official channels.\u003c/p\u003e","blueskyPost":"The chopsticks scene in Re:Zero season 4 is a comic beat in a Loss Arc that sets the emotional stakes for the Recapture Arc.
