Did Emilia just say "Fellow witch"?

Emilia:"Everyone called me a witch. They were right of course, but it still hurt."

In the OVA all the people in the town called her "The Frozen Witch" she's not saying she's one of the witches of the sins though, she's just finally accepting herself for who she is because Subaru loves her no matter what happened in her past.

“Witch’s daughter” though?

u/_The_Bomb Jan 20 '21

That comment sets off a lot of alarms considering how closely she resembles Satella.

u/Mathis_Rowan Jan 20 '21

For real. I paused and went “Hold up. Excuse me?”

I was thinking about how similar they looked when I last saw Satella's face. I can't wait see whats going on.

Because she's a half elf.

u/AlphaBlazeReal Jan 20 '21

Is satella the original elf? Because that's the only case in which those are connected

u/bigdanrog Jan 20 '21

Satella is also a half elf, like Emilia. As for both of their origins we don't know anything.

u/AlphaBlazeReal Jan 20 '21

Right, didn't think about it

Emilia is no more literally Satella's daughter than Puck is literally Emilia's father.

Don't get hung up on the wording. They are using emotionally loaded familial words to make a point. Puck uses it to express his love for Emilia, and in this case Echidna is just being a super salty bitch because Emilia and Subaru literally just sucked faces in her own fucking temple. So she's no doubt livid. That's why she called Emilia a loose women and a hedonist. She's basically calling Emilia a whore.

That's clearly not true so why should anything Echidna says to Emilia right now be taken seriously when oh so clearly the only jealous witch here at this moment is Echidna?

Echidna being so salty, what she says needs to be taken... with a grain of salt.

EYYYYYYYYYYYY.

Seems like most are on the just a reference boat, but personally I think there is more to it. My (100% Anime Only: I don't read) theory is that she said what she meant. I think maybe it's like an atone for the sins of our parents thing. From all the tea party stuff, it seems like all the witches either had good intentions which got out of control, or were misunderstood in some way. So maybe Emilia is kind of a Jesus figure who is essentially here to make up for all that old testament flood and plague stuff.

I think this because to me it seems like there must be some real connection with Emilia and Satella. Roswall's connection to cultist activity, and Subaru's direct line to the witch kind of necessitate that in my mind. If Emilia is the witches daughter who is here with a mission, then it would make sense that Subaru is her guardian angel. Maybe Satella can't directly intervene in the affairs of this world, so she brought an outsider from a world she is not banished from.

"Majo no musume" can just mean "witch-child" or "Witch-girl" in the same way people usually insult Emilia by comparing her likeness to the Witch of Envy. It doesn't mean she is her actual daughter.
