Kadomon Risch is a fruit vendor in the royal capital of Lugunica in Re:Zero, known among fans as “Mister Save Point” because his stall serves as the return-by-death checkpoint for Subaru Natsuki in Arc 1 and Arc 3.
Kadomon Risch is a male merchant who runs a fruit stall in the streets of Lugunica’s royal capital.
He sells a local fruit called “linga” and is one of the first townspeople Subaru Natsuki repeatedly meets after arriving in this world.
He is married and has a small family.
His wife is named Raksha, and they have a daughter named Plum.
Kadomon has a noticeable scar on his face.
According to the author, this scar was actually given to him by his wife, adding a humorous twist to his tough appearance.
In the story’s first and third arcs, the area in front of his stall becomes Subaru Natsuki’s return-by-death save point.
Because Subaru frequently revives there, fans affectionately refer to Kadomon as “Mister Save Point.”
Kadomon looks and talks like a rough, gangster-like tough guy.
His speech is coarse, and his demeanor can seem intimidating at first glance.
Despite that, his nature is fundamentally kind and compassionate.
He repeatedly helps Subaru Natsuki, who is confused and distressed by the loops and his own repeated deaths.
On more than one occasion, Kadomon takes care of Subaru when he breaks down mentally.
He offers support in small but meaningful ways, grounded in everyday concern rather than grand heroism.
His mix of scary looks and warm-hearted behavior makes him a memorable “neighborhood adult” figure.
He represents the more down-to-earth, human side of the capital, contrasting with knights, nobles, and powerful magic users.
Kadomon’s most important function is as a fixed point in Subaru’s looping experiences.
Because Subaru keeps returning to the same moment in front of the fruit stall, Kadomon inevitably becomes tied to Subaru’s sense of “restart.”
The stall’s location essentially becomes Subaru’s save point in both the first and third arcs.
This gives Kadomon an unusual narrative importance, even though he is a minor character in terms of screen time.
From Subaru’s perspective, Kadomon is one of the first stable presences he encounters in this strange new world.
Seeing Kadomon again and again after each death subtly grounds Subaru, making the loops feel both familiar and cruelly repetitive.
His family details, like his wife Raksha and daughter Plum, help flesh out the everyday life of Lugunica’s citizens.
They remind the audience that the world of Re:Zero is populated by normal people with families and worries beyond the main plot.
Kadomon Risch is voiced by Kenta Miyake in the anime adaptation.
Miyake’s deep, rough voice emphasizes Kadomon’s tough-guy exterior while still allowing moments of warmth and kindness to come through.
