Wow, what an episode. It feels like nothing happens and yet SO MUCH happens at the same time. A lot planning and setup and yet there's still a lot going on. Subaru seemingly absorbs the dragon blood from Crusch.
Dragon blood is crazy stuff. It's interesting that Subaru seems to have an affinity for it as it actually seems to benefit him but cripples Crusch. I'm guessing it has something to do with Subaru's Witch Factor.
Wilhelm reveals the identity of the two sword cultists, one of which is his deceased wife! Otto proving once again why he's best man. And lets not forget Priscilla joins the team!
Reinhard casually getting a new divine protection on demand was funny. And last but not least, we get confirmation that Liliana has a divine protection.
The final moments of this episode are perfect too. Emilia confronting Greed really shows how much she's grown. I can't imagine pre-Sanctuary Emilia doing that. Finally, Subaru and Reinhard bust in with the stereotypical wedding objection. I bet Subaru had always wanted to do that.

I did not read Subaru as having an affinity for dragon blood, so much as just having been infected less, but you might be onto something. Maybe its part of his rare affinity for dark magic, or maybe its related to his connection to the witch of envy.
I wonder if seeing what Lust can do is a little window into what Subaru will be able to do with the infection. Even if to a lesser effect.
Done!
