Re:Zero kara Hajimeru Isekai Seikatsu 3rd Season Episode 5 Discussion

Subaru of all people should've learned by now to have some kind of tool or potion or whatever with him that he can use to suicide if he ever gets in a situation where he has to beg for death, gets imprisoned etc. It's baffling why he hasn't done something like that, like having a poison with him or something that would kill him quickly. Countless lives depend on his ability to go back in time and fix shit. Disappointing.

If Subaru still alive after all that.. it gonna be new record, he stay alive. Not only they die but the city will be submerged, great more suffering

When Rem died in S1 for instance, it worked! Subaru jumped off the cliff and suicided precisely for the reason I mentioned. To fix shit before it was too late.

Did I say such BS? When shit gets out of hand, Subaru must prioritize killing himself without delay. The more he waits (be it his enemies to kill him or to blead out etc), bigger the chances he'll survive or reset point will change; thus he won't be able to fix shit.

If I'm missing some crucial detail I apparently forgot or didn't pay enough attention to, please explain without having a stroke.

You're projecting hard here. This is literally the first comment I made. And how is a simple comment on episode discussion thread bothering anyone who isn't having mental health issues?
What's funny is how a clown known for making braindead threads every week says this of all people. It's also funny how you lot can't simply give an explanation and move on with your lives, instead of throwing tantrums.

Btw I dont think even Light Novel explain this, why does Theresia works under Capella as witch cultus?
I mean, her divine protection of Death God is literally anti Capella against her regeneration ability.
If she fights against Capella, Capella would most likely suffers fate worse than death cuz she can't die but she can't heal back her wound too, so she would live as living meat scraps (literality) if Theresia chop her into pieces in a real fight.
So Theresia is clearly stronger/ superior than Capella in combat, so there's no reason she should listen to Capella.

@Sigmar-Unberogen Why should i waste my time to explain entire theme and writing of Season 2?

Go watch Season 2 Part 1, it's explained there in multiple different ways.

It's funny im trying to convince someone to watch Season 2 in Season 3 comments.

@Sigmar-Unberogen Iirc his ability doesn't really fix shit. When he dies he just goes to the past of a new timeline. If he actively commits suicide to abuse RbD not by accident, it's like he's just running away from his problems and leaves the remaining people in the old timeline to deal with the shit themselves and escapes to a new better world alone. Through that lens, RbD can be viewed as an ultimate selfish ability where you can arrogantly choose the best timeline to live in.

Subaru doesn't want that. By letting Capella kill him at least he can make an excuse that he tried his best instead of having to deal with the guilt over commiting suicide. Another reason is he doesn't want to become Roswaal and lose his humanity with the twisted thinking that sacrificing all other lives is okay as long as the version in the final timeline achieves the goal.

That's as far as I can remember. I'm an anime-only so maybe the LN readers can add more info to this.

@Okeanix You can't explain why Subaru doesn't have countermeasures to suicide without waiting to be murdered or bleed-out? Like, you need to write a 50 page thesis or something for that?

I barely have time for seasonal anime, I can't spend time rewatching S2 when answering the question should take 5 minutes max from re:zero fanatics like you, I assume. If you're incapable of formulating 2 to 3 sentences without dodging the topic or throwing a tantrum, that's not my problem. Maybe stay away from forums then. If you're short on time, have patience of a toddler or can't make an argument, don't reply to me at all. Easy.

@newluminous Thank god someone sane appeared in this thread. I was losing hope. Thanks again, that info helped.
I completely forgot about timeline change and remembered it as just going back in time. Fanatics assume everyone injects re:zero in their veins on daily basis or something. Like I should have remembered this. Years have passed, I have other things to do. I honestly forgot, jeez...

Anyways...

With all that considered, what if Emilia dies for instance? Subaru will 100% have no other choice but to reset yes? But what if he faces someone crazy (and they're always all crazy) who refuses to finish him off, or what if there's no guarantee he'll bleed out or die on his own; there's even possibility of him passing out after inaction and then getting rescued. Wouldn't it make sense for Subaru to be ready (just in case) for such worst case scenarios? By having some strong poison on him at all times or I don't know, some trinket or whatever that can help him to die, he can at least save Emilia in different timeline, instead of losing that opportunity entirely due to reset-point shift? Doesn't that make sense? If he survives in "failed timeline" and reset point shifts where going back in time "doesn't really matter" (for instance since Emilia can no longer be saved) Subaru will indeed just break. I bet then he'll regret not thinking things through enough. What do you think?

@mawawile Thanks for your time and for such thorough answer friend! That's all I've been asking for and you're an example how it can be done!

Some people here pretend like what you did was impossible or something. I mean, don't have patience or time to explain, don't bother tagging me with butthurt off-topic comments. Who's forcing you??? Jeez...

Anyways, thanks again.
