Re:Zero kara Hajimeru Break Time 3rd Season

Re:Zero kara Hajimeru Break Time is the same series of shorts that air at the same time as the current ReZero season. They are simplistically animated, but feature the same voice acting, sound design and writing as the main series. Unlike Break Time (or Petit for the first season) of previous series, where it not necessary to watch them, I *do* encourage watchers of Re:Zero Season 3 to watch these shorts. Additional details, world building, and most importantly, information about the different characters in the cast is revealed in these shorts. These details have obviously been excluded from the mainline series because of pacing and ... time constraints, and are canonical in nature. They're short, easy to watch, and often cute, so I recommend to enhance the Re:Zero experience.

Okay, here we go for the fiftieth time:

Characters:
-Main characters: I don't feel like they were really the protagonists of Break Time. (3/7)
-Supporting characters: Not everything they do or say is necessarily canon, but it's nice to know more about them. (2/3)

Logic:
It's not canon, but when they say things that don't happen in the main story, it confuses me. (7/10)

Entertainment (Personal):
... At first, I watched it for entertainment, but with the last few episodes, I don't know, even though it's a side story, the truth is that it was okay, but it's not the best Break Time. (5/10)

The basics in an anime:
-Animation: Same as always: they're chibis. (1/2)
-Music: Same as always: there isn't any. (0/2)
-Addictiveness: This is just me, but this Break Time wasn't even that bad. (0/2)
-Tag development (genres, themes, etc.): It's definitely “Comedy,” but only because that's the only option it has, and comedy is good for getting a smile out of you at least. (2/2)
-Ending: At least they finish the side story, and that's enough. (1/2)

Plot development (or initial premise):
It comes with information that I don't know whether to take as canon, they changed the scene of Aldebaran's revelation to Subaru, they briefly summarize a side story about Petra and the archbishops, it's fine. (4/10)

Personal reflection (clearly personal):
“Hating you doesn't mean I'm going to be inconsiderate to you,” words that no one said but would fit well with the final scene between Petra and Roswaal. (1/10)

Comments:
I'm obviously underestimating this Break Time, but since I couldn't find episodes 9 through 16, watching them from an analysis video was my only option, so these conclusions are more from my experience watching Break Time S3.

Final score: 6.6.


(Note: Since I'm very tolerant of anime, my minimum score for all of them is currently 4).
