Petelgeuse should be dead, but Subaru and Julius confront him once more! The story of Subaru and his power, "Return by Death," continues.

Subaru Natsuki was just trying to get to the convenience store but wound up summoned to another world. He encounters the usual things--life-threatening situations, silver haired beauties, cat fairies--you know, normal stuff. All that would be bad enough, but he's also gained the most inconvenient magical ability of all--time travel, but he's got to die to use it. How do you repay someone who saved your life when all you can do is die?

Let us start over from here. From one...No. From zero!After a near-fatal encounter with the White Whale, Subaru awakens in Roswaal Manor distraught. As the very memory of Rem fades from the world, Subaru attempts to fight through the witch's curse to reveal his "Return by Death" ability in the hopes of conveying the gravity of the danger before Emilia. Subaru believes he is ready to suffer the consequences, but the price for telling the truth is crueler than he could have imagined...

Fight! The battle against the White Whale has concluded, but Subaru's fight is far from over. He knows the Witch Cultists have their eyes on Emilia, so he's brought forces-including Julius the knight, of all unlikely allies-to ambush them and crush their scheme. But when things go a little too smoothly against Subaru's nemesis, the "Archbishop of Sin" Petelgeuse, a suspicion lingers: Is there something vitally important they've failed to realize...?

Having emerged on the other side of his battle with Archbishop Petelgeuse, Subaru faces an even greater challenge. In this final volume of Re: ZERO Chapter 3, he heads toward a despair that not even Return by Death might not overcome.

On to the next stage: the witch’s tomb known as the Sanctuary- Determined to release Rem from a mysterious slumber, Subaru and Emilia return to Roswaal’s manor in search of clues on how to reach the Sanctuary, the secret location to which Ram and Roswaal escaped. But the way there is fraught with the unexpected-especially for Subaru, who finds himself in the company of a curious figure. A new chapter begins, and with it, a new adventure...

Having survived both his encounter with the demon beasts and the nigh endless week at Roswaal Manor, Subaru returns to the capital of Lugunica with Emilia and Rem. Reuniting with friends and foes alike in the city where it all began, Subaru also lays eyes on the other candidates for queen--Emilia's rivals! Can Emilia win against such formidable opponents? And how will Subaru react when he discovers the shocking identity of the final candidate?
