What Is Pandora Doing in the Modern Day?
Re:Zero Season 2 Questions
While the Witch’s Cult and the Sin Archbishops may be massive threats in their own right, Re:Zero Season 2 showed they’re nothing compared to the series’ latest villain Pandora.
Known as the Witch of Vain Glory and capable of rewriting reality, she’s responsible for several catastrophes that have impacted the world. She led the attack on Emilia’s village that wiped out her people; warped Betelgeuse into the monster Subaru had to kill; and even killed the Sword Saint that came before Reinhard.
However, she hasn’t actually been seen in the present day. Her first appearance came via the flashback to Emilia’s childhood, and while a Sin Archbishop she commanded was responsible for Rem’s current state, she herself hasn’t recently been seen by Subaru or his allies.
This begs the question: What is Pandora doing in the present? There’s little doubt it can’t be good for the world as a whole, and given that the Royal Selection is underway, it’s highly unlikely she’d let it proceed without a hitch.
