I have just finished the anime, and althugh given that the show did a really
good job at tying up loose ends with the plot, I still do not get Roswaal L
Mathers' purpose within the plot. According to my memory, he was/did the
following:

> \- Head of the mansion and the Mathers Domain  
>  \- Helped with the fight between Subaru et al. and the _majuu_ packs  
>  \- Sponsored Emilia for the election  
>  
>  ...But then he wasn't seen within the show afterwards (for the latter
> section, at least).

Did his character play a bigger role that I overlooked? (Or potentially in a
later release of the manga that has not been anime-tized?)

re-zero
What exactly was Roswaal's role within Re:Zero?


Roswaal has an ulterior motive. It has not been shown in anime yet. As of now,
the anime covers only the first three arcs of the light novel. His motive is
fully explained in arc 4.

Roswaal is one of the main mastermind in the settings of Re: Zero world.

He is The first Roswaal named Roswaal A Mathers (A = Arthur). He wants to meet
his teacher Echidna once again and that's why he has been possessing his
successors. Current Roswaal is the 12th generation Roswaal. He brings Emilia
to his mansion and assists her to stand as an ruler candidate. He hired Elsa
(Crazy Assassin) to steal Emilia's emblem. Though it wasn't revealed why
(Maybe I don't know). But it might have something to do with Echidna.

He surely is a madlad
