A new clip from the sixth episode of Re:Zero -Starting Life in Another World- season 4 shows Julius Euclius being hit with chopsticks. The scene is part of the Loss Arc, the first of two arcs that make up the 19-episode season. The Loss Arc began broadcast and streaming on April 8, 2026, and runs for 11 episodes. The Recapture Arc will follow with 8 episodes starting August 12, 2026. The season is directed by Masaharu Watanabe, with series composition by Masahiro Yokotani and character designs by Kyuta Sakai. Production is handled by White Fox. The opening theme is "Recollect" by Konomi Suzuki and Ashnikko, and the ending theme is "Ender Ember" by MYTH & ROID feat. TK (Ling tosite sigure). The clip was released by Crunchyroll, which streams the series. The season adapts the ongoing novels by Tappei Nagatsuki, which began in 2012.
The clip shows a moment of levity in an otherwise tense arc. 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.
