I don't know why I still listen to such people, but here are we.
He had argued that Reinhardt is Outerversal, and the story is the proof of itself.
He showed me many lines, and at a point I thought I had indeed nerfed Reinhardt(Never considered he was outerversal though)
Now here is some proof, why Reinhardt is not Outerversal:
"This isn't Dragon Ball, so it's not the kind of thing that destroys planets. :) Even Sekhmet and Regulus aren't at the level where they could bring down the moon."-Tappei
There is also another translation where he says he doesn't plan Sekhmet or Regulus destroying on moon, and that guy argued that Tappei meant they can destroy moon, but they won't.
There is a fan-translated Reinhard birthday Q&A (2018) that records an answer: "He can destroy it. Fairly easily." — i.e., a claim that Reinhard could destroy the world. That appears in fan transcripts and forum cites, not on the official re-zero.com Q&A pages.
In some fan translations (especially older web novel translations), Yang magic was described as producing "beams of light that travel at the speed of light."
However, this seems to be a mistranslation / over-interpretation:
The Japanese text usually just calls it "light-attribute magic" (光属性の魔法) or describes it as blazing/bright attacks.
Nowhere in the original LN/WN does Tappei explicitly state that Yang spells travel at the speed of light.
Most official translations and later fan TLs render it as "light magic," "solar magic," or "magic of heat/light" without implying real-world physics.
In one of his Q&As, when asked about Yang magic and whether it moves at light speed, Tappei answered (fan-archived translation):
"No, it doesn't move at light speed. It's just called light-attribute magic — don't think of it as physics."(from fan-collected Q&A, ~2016–2017)
So the author himself clarified: Yang magic is not literally bound to the speed of light.
So Reinhardt's reaction speed is not even close to speed of light.
Japanese (WN, Arc 5 Ch. 82)
レグルスの踏み込みは,常人の目では到底追えない速さで,拳は鋭くラインハルトの顔面を狙っていた.ラインハルトは驚愕の表情を浮かべざるを得なかった.その身体能力をもってしても,今の一撃を完全に避け切ることはできなかったのだ.彼の頬に紅が走り,わずかに血が滲む.
Translation (rough, faithful)
Regulus' step-in was at a speed utterly impossible for an ordinary eye to follow, and his fist sharply aimed for Reinhard's face.Reinhard couldn't help but show a look of astonishment.Even with his physical ability, he was unable to completely avoid that strike.A line of red streaked across his cheek, and a small trace of blood oozed out.
So how fast was Regulus moving?
The only explicit measure in the text is "常人の目では到底追えない速さ" → "a speed utterly impossible for an ordinary person's eye to track."
That's the canonical description — Tappei never assigns an absolute (m/s, Mach, etc.).
Contextually:
Reinhard, who has superhuman speed/reaction, admits surprise and fails to cleanly dodge.
The implication is extreme superhuman speed, well beyond human perception, but not described as light speed or relativistic.
Later in the same battle, Reinhard adjusts and no longer treats Regulus' speed as threatening — meaning the "problem" was his initial surprise, not an inability to deal with it.
However if he had reaction speed at speed of light he should have been able to dodge it, and if he is Outerversal even if he isn't at speed of light he should been able to defeat Regulus in one strike.
Yes, Tappei Nagatsuki has acknowledged that Reinhard van Astrea alone cannot easily defeat Regulus Corneas. This was confirmed during a Q&A session commemorating the 10th anniversary of Re:Zero, where Tappei discussed the dynamics between Reinhard and Regulus.
1. Source Description
The Pleidas Watch Tower is described as a magical observatory and dimensional structure used by the Witches' cult and related magic users.
It is often depicted as much larger on the inside than the outside, which is a common magical trope in the series.
2. "Infinite Space" Clarification
Some fans have suggested it might be infinite due to its size discrepancy, but Tappei has never stated it's truly infinite.
The official materials and Q&A imply it is vast and possibly flexible in size, but constrained by magic and architecture.
It functions more like a pocket dimension or expanded magical interior, not an actual infinite space.
3. Related Notes
In Q&A (fan-translated), Tappei mentioned that structures like this are "big enough for story purposes, but not literally infinite".
The tower's interior can house multiple rooms, libraries, and magical facilities, but there are physical limits to the number of people, rooms, and objects it can contain.
1. Source Depictions
Satella is the arch-Witch of Envy, an extremely powerful magical being with immense authority over life, death, and time in certain contexts.
She can manipulate magic, curses, and the Witch's cult's influence, but there is no canonical statement that she can move freely across all dimensions.
In fact, most dimensional manipulations in Re:Zero are limited to specific constructs:
The Sanctuary (Witch's Domain)
The World of the Witch (slightly separate dimensional rules)
Time loops / Return by Death (Subaru is tied to her power in this context)
2. Official Q&A & Author Notes
Tappei Nagatsuki has never claimed that Satella is dimension-transcendent in the sense of "she exists outside all worlds or can freely move across every plane of existence."
Fan interpretations sometimes exaggerate her abilities based on:
Her Return by Death connection
Her ability to influence events from afar
The metaphysical narrative descriptions in the WN
But these are not literal, measurable omnidimensional feats.
3. Feats vs. Narrative Scope
Satella can affect multiple worlds within the series' own dimensional rules, e.g., manipulating barriers or the Witch's domains.
She is not portrayed as omnipotent outside the narrative's cosmology. She cannot "jump into any arbitrary dimension at will."
1. What Beatrice Actually Does
Beatrice, as the Librarian of the Forbidden Library, can manipulate magic related to space and sealing.
In the WN/LN, she creates a sealed space for the library — often referred to in translation as a "parallel world" or "another dimension."
This is essentially a pocket dimension:
Internally expansive (much larger than it appears from outside)
Magically sealed (only those with permission or special keys can enter)
2. Why This Is Not Multiversal
Multiverse in fiction usually means existence across multiple entire universes or separate realities with their own planets, stars, and independent timelines.
Beatrice's pocket dimensions / "parallel worlds" are:
Limited in size and scope
Dependent on magic and her own maintenance
Part of the same universe, not independent universes with separate cosmologies
Tappei's Q&A (fan-translated) clarifies that spaces like Beatrice's library are magically expanded or sealed, but do not represent separate universes in the omniversal sense.
3. Analogy
Think of it like Doctor Strange's sanctums in Marvel or pocket dimensions in other fantasy settings:
They are huge, fully contained, and sometimes appear "another world"
But they do not make the caster omniversal or multiversal.
in the 10th Anniversary Q&A session, Tappei Nagatsuki discussed Reinhard van Astrea's power and limitations. He clarified that while Reinhard is exceptionally strong, there are constraints to his abilities. Specifically, Tappei mentioned that Reinhard would face challenges in destroying a country with a single strike.
Pleidas Watchtower having different dimensions doesn't put it into Hyperversal or something.
IN SIMPLE WORDS, REINHARDT IS BARELY PLANETARY(Not destroy in one hit but can destroy the world), HE ISN'T FASTER THAN SPEED OF LIGHT, NOT HIS AGILITY NEITHER HIS REACTION SPEED.
If you still want to lick his ass then you can do where I don't see it, I don't want to see such a disgusting thing in front of me.
This is all is Proof.
