Re:ZERO -Starting Life in Another World- The Frozen Bond

Blanketed in snow and ice, Elior Forest shelters perilous magical beasts—and fifty elves sealed away within frozen crystal. From that silence, the great spirit Puck frees a young girl from her icy prison: Emilia, a silver-haired half-elf with long ears and amethyst eyes, whose features echo the feared Witch said to have devastated half the world long ago.

Marked and avoided for her resemblance, Emilia lives deep in the forest with only Puck as her companion and family. Haunted by accusations of a destructive sin she cannot remember, she devotes herself to finding a way to save the kin still trapped in ice. When Melakuera, the world’s Arbitrator, turns his attention to her existence, Emilia’s very right to live is put on trial—testing whether the bond she forged with Puck can withstand a fate that seems already decided.
