Meaning then that Emilia became a support... right? Why don't you complain about Rem? She wasn't supposed to, right? ¬¬ A suppossed 'Side Character' becoming a Main is much better then when a suppossed main becomes a minor side Character. Especially when the side becoming a main is carrying the Series. +1111 Exactly ... You realize the flaw in this, right? It's in assuming that a main is always the best. That a show always loses when it doesn't focus more on a main. Lol. A supposed 'side character' 'carrying the series' should be a really nice thing to see. People like you weren't expecting this, right? Based on what you've seen in other shows. I don't get what your trying to say best character in the show ca be bulid up by developing and having screen time and role in the story , until now emilia barely had screen time , she didn't had character development what so every , she is more of goal than a character at this point ....why in the hell should i even care about her ? she is a main heroine just by name ...talk about arc 4 when it come not now She is just love interest at this point lol what so special about it ? even rem become love interest for subaru later in the story 'main heroine just by name'? Again with expectations... Eh. I wasn't watching this show, expecting Emilia to always remain the center of attention. What? Why do you people even do this? The best you've been argumenting about is that she's Subaru's motivation, so more of her 'should' be revealed- it's wrong if not. I wasn't even expecting Subaru to remain the center of attention. I'd be fine with any other character. As long as they provided a good story. It could be the thugs, or the merchant, or, or... Again you're explaining my words in the way you like , i never said i expected emillia to be the central point through the whole story , but a whole 2 cours anime with her begin side character , really ? she is truely just a main by name and rem is main character in this season anyway so no reason the bring the whole main and supporting character They are both main character but the different one has great character development , screen time , role in the story and the other work as obsession target to the MC to drive him , and wait she wan't even the one drive him in this episode it was rem So who told you it should be an issue that she's not being given more attention? Subaru saw her as an ideal girl, and kept wanting her. Only a few weeks have passed in the story. Of most, Subaru's always been with her. We've seen how virtuous she is. How charitable. How educated. How kind. How forgiving. How tolerate. How reproaching. You completely driven the main discussion point away we're not discussion why subaru is obsessed with emilia we're talking about her role in the sotry how subaru see her < i would barely give a shit about it , subaru obsessed with her because he never saw a girl kind to him in his entire life and only saw the good part about her while nearly everyone hurt him in a way or another So if you don't care about his 'obssession', why do you care about her? Why don't you care about Felt? Why don't you care about Roswaal? Because she appeared first? Huh? Again you two have been expecting the story to go a common route. So your saying mean i don't care obessession then i don't care about emillia see you said it yourself Emilia is a subaru obsession target and nothing else "as of this moment" i could barely call her a character on her own she serve as subaru a love interest and driven reason which exactly what rem become later in the story and rem is so much more than a just a goal and love interset which is why you don't compare them Subaru's not in love with Rem. Subaru has implied many times that Emilia is his ideal girl. He's praised her plenty. She made the first and best impression. And he kept loyal to her, and faithful to his love. What happened in the castle didn't serve as a definite rejection. He misunderstood what she said, and thought that she was talking about his love for her, in the 'special treatment' he gives her. But it was about the prejudice - she was talking about pity, instead. She didn't say enough there. She wasn't clear, as it wasn't possible for her to, at the moment. OMG don't turn this into shipping talk if you can't replay to my point's don't talk about subaru and rem relationship without even seeing the LN and WN if you gonna talk about shipping again please don't replay on it Dude, it's you who commented on Rem being more important to Subaru than Emilia. You're quite confusing in your points. Your grammar is getting to me. LOL what the hell are you even talking about !!! are you seriouly reading my comment's ? i just said emillia serve as a love interset for subaru and rem also become love interset for him later story is 15% or 10% compelet it doesn't matter emillia as of right now is a side character not moew no less don't bring nonsense out of blue just for the sake of argument It matters, yes. -_- The issue was with not more of her being shown, though she's clearly important to the story. So what's your complaint? Her role is not only of 'love interest'. The role she plays in the story is being of great effect to it, still. No it doesn , what you saying right it just like back in when episode 4 was airing and someone come and tell you Rem is best Girl in the series lol i don't give a shit let me see it myself and then i will judge I have said my complaining for the past 6-7 replays but you keep ignoring emilia lock screen time and character development and don't have role in the story as of now she just there to be love interset for subaru unlike Rem |

This episode offended me personally. What a stone cold rejection from a main protagonist who has been annoying me since episode 1. I understand what the episode was going for and respect their noble attempts to get the messy plot back on track, but this episode would have been much better if they had given the Rem ship a more honourable send-off. We all knew that she would have to hit the chopping block eventually but this was just silly. Give the two of them an incredibly intimate scene and shit on it with Emilia propaganda. This has been a terrible blow to the series, ditching the most well written romantic plotline for the bland and boring Emilia route (honestly I'd honestly prefer the Puck route). I don't think that this series has done a stellar job with any of its characters (Rem included) but Emilia does not serve her role in the plot and I don't find her in any way likeable. Before sinking the best ship in the series give us a passable alternative. |

Shrimperor said: Rehls said: Doesn't allows for now. It's more realistic this way. Obligations in life separate people from each other sometimes. When someone travels, for example. ... There's something really wrong with you complaining about this. I see no good reason. ... If Subaru were then to remain alone, then we can presume that the show would lose, more than gain. But Subaru wasn't by himself. There was Beatrice, Ram and Rem. And we know very little about Emilia to have a good notion of how much we 'lost'. Doesn't change the fact that the suppossed Main girl is a minor side Character. Plot allows it or no, to only be there 3 times in 18 episodes is side Character thing. Even Beako had more of a role then her. Maybe later on in the series She will get some role, but right now, Emilia, and especially Subaru's Obsession with her is the biggest weakness of the series. You keep saying three times even though everyone here knows that isn't true. |

I'm sorry, but what better and mature way to end the possible romance between the two then one of them rejecting the other, out loud, in person, honestly? It's sicking to imagine one repaying a debt to someone by deciding to be their romantic partner despite their feelings saying otherwise. Throughout the ep, what Rem was saying was an IF, and Subaru was asking her to run away with him, not marry him or anything. |

this is loop 4 now? or 5? can't remember. anyhows, Rem is incredibly stupid and unrealistic. 3dpd girls NEVER act like the way Rem did when Subaru proposed to run away together. Isn't she head over heels for him? Nonono, I FUCKING REFUSE that just happened. If Rem really loves him then she'd be willing to throw away everything else and run away with him. Well, you deserve the rejection. |

Well, you deserve the rejection. She loves him, but not to a creepy point (Yuno from Future Diary) where she doesn't care for his own well being. If she agreed to run away with Subaru, they would be throwing away a huge part of Subaru: someone who never gives up, as badly as she wants to start a life with him. The dialogue outright states her reasoning. |

OH HECK YES. This is exactly what I needed from this show and from Subaru. I am SO HAPPY with this episode! Rem is the best. Subaru has taken his first real step towards being a hero. I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS. And yelling at him a lot. His negativity lasted a little too long for my tastes. I was hoping for the best even as I freaking hated him the past five or so episodes. This is my favorite episode so far. I love the creative choice to have the entire episode really just be a talk, in one place, between Subaru and Rem. Rem cemented herself as the best character. And Subaru made the turnaround he needed, the turnaround this show needed from him. I WAS GRINNING THROUGH THIS WHOLE EPISODE I'M SO HAPPY YESSSS GO SUBARU GO REM DON'T LOSE THIS BEAUTIFUL NEW START. Oh, and Puck as a giant beast was pretty dope. |

eh it was kind of boring like after he got the point across it was just him and rem reiterating their points back and forth until subaru caved? but im really happy that subaru could finally see how annoying he was and that he wanted to fix it. i really hope they dont have him do the exact same things that he did before but have him magically succeed this time after everythign he did?? i wish subaru would just listen to emilia for once? also rem made me cry she could do so much better thank subaru |

Shrimperor said: You are contradicting yourself right now. ''Subaru loves Emilia because she saved him from some thugs'' ''Subaru shouldn't love Rem because she saved him from things that are 632356525 worse then 3 thugs''. Love shoudln't be about Whom saved whom, but you are not argumenting any better with Subaru x EMP. What in the world are you going on about? I never once said that. I my point was saving someone was not excuse to expect emotional obligation from hem. If you're helping someone out of love you do regardless of whether you will be loved. You make the target of your affection aware feelings, but shouldn't be guilt tripped into it. The y need to be the one to accept on their own. Atleast Subaru and Rem had interactions. Subaru and Emilia have had plenty of interactions, I'm not surprised it slipped through you goldfish like memory just how Subaru and Rem barely interacted for half of Arc 2 outside murdering and torturing him did. I don't particular care either since I actually like Rem and I'm not low enough to use her attack others characters out of ignorance and butthurt. |

aboynameddeath said: Subaru: I AM USELESS I HATE MYSELF Rem: I LOVE YOU SUBARU Subaru: OK, I AM FANTASTIC AND I LOVE EMILIA LoOoOL, HELP ME SAVE HER? Rem: YES! :)))))))) ROFL the writing is beyond atrocious. For the first 17 minutes of the latest episode Subaru was the most real, the most intelligent, and the most relatable that he has ever been the entire series, and I actually managed to really feel something for him. Then it all went down the drain. Rem is just flatly written waifu bait. There are multi-dimensional fascinating characters that would also happen to make a great waifu, and there are characters that exist for the sole reason of pandering to the viewers. Rem unfortunately is the latter. There's zero personality or thought behind any of her actions other than being in love with the mc. As far as I'm concerned her character development died episodes ago the moment she fell for Subaru. There are so many interesting things the show could focus on like the five candidates for the throne, or what exactly is the witch, or what are Roswall's (and the other backers) true intentions, but it just chooses to show a boy's unhealthy obsession with a girl he barely even knows and waifu wars. Subaru's rant was really great and memorable though. Hits way too close to home. LMFAOOOOOOOOOO! NICELY SAID! GOOD SUMMARY TOO AHAHAHGAHGS! his rant applies to a lot of people here it seems, would explain why this show has such high ratings. agahgagas |

She tried to hide her emotions but when he surprisingly embraced her, she burst out in tears. And I think deep down she knew most of his attention was reserved for Emilia; there's no reason for her to be surprised by his statement about loving Emilia. |

Holy cow, this show. On one hand, I greatly appreciate the respite from the "everybody dies" gore-fest, But on the other, the show still does not give any respite from the tugging of the heart-strings. No idea how they're going to get out of this, but I suspect that having Rem firmly on Subaru's side is going to play a huge part. And surely much more to come from Puck. I am eager to learn more about that whole situation. Holy cow. |

Over a 20 minute scene, 95% of the episode, where all sort of feelings are poured out and Rem confesses her deep love for Subaru and he's just like, yeeeeaa... I actually like Emilia tho. Lmfao that's hilarious |

Stark700 said: THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Puck is so damn awesome, I love how they portray the character in its more monstrous form. The suffering continues...with Subaru freezing to death. The whole loop thing happened as expected AGAIN. Subaru's chemistry with Rem got to a heated angle. I mean, Subaru's rage...not that it's surprising considering all the dark experiences he's been through. The Rem and Subaru chemistry is quite something imo. They both went through sufferings so they can relate to each other in ways. That OST fit quite well for the episode~ when i watch these i hope it will be rem route |

The author has been spelling it out for Subaru using different characters throughout the entire arc. Re-watch episode 16. Every character he meets tells him exactly what he should've done to get what he wants. The author really lays it on thick. |

I was surprised when I saw that this episode was only 74% loved, but I forgot that people are mad that their ship just sank lmao. It's okay guys, this is what actually happened! Haha, jk, but the author actually wrote a story of what happened if they did run away in something called Re:Zero IF for you Rem fans. Anyways this scene/episode was great. I'm glad he told her straight up that he loved Emilia and didn't wait any longer to give her too much hope. But I still don't understand how the hell can he can reject her after everything she's has done for him and after she poured her heart out for 20+ min o__o There's no way he can die now after such an important scene and character/relationship development with Rem. I'm really excited to see how Subaru plans to save everyone now that he's reset his mental state. |

im not into Waifu wars or shipping shit, but this episode prove that how awesome each character development, Rem maturity and Subaru's True feelings but again this is such a nice picture from -IF chapters https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B_oxWJ1yWNv4S2ZDOWs2NHo1bUE/view IF Chapter: Natsuki Rem Under the radiant sky, Subaru squints his eyes at the sun’s strong rays. A deafening cry can be heard. The voice belongs to a baby girl, her forceful crying filled to the brim with all the strength her tiny body can muster. Seeing her express her discomfort with the strength of her entire soul, Subaru wonders how it is that children can be so unbelievably energetic. And while thinking that, he shudders at how lacking in youth his thoughts have become. [I’ve had a feeling I’ve been getting on lately, but it’s pretty depressing to be consciously aware. Aren’t I still a super lively YOUNG MAN!?] [“Super lively YOUNG MAN” my ass. Try looking at yourself a little more objectively.] While clutching his hands dramatically, Subaru is bombarded with trash talk. Used to the verbal abuse, he sighs lightly and looks to his side. A young boy stands beside him, his eyes level with the sitting Subaru. Ignoring Subaru’s silent stare, he adds, [Anyways, do something about Spica already! Her crying’s seriously getting on my nerves.] [No, I just can’t go on anymore. After that last cruel remark, my NAIVE HEART is completely in tatters! Maybe I’ll revert back to childhood and cry alongside Spica. Please forgive your useless father!] [Who the hell’s gonna forgive a grown man acting out in broad daylight like that!?] Page 1 of 21 Page 2 of 21 The boy retorts loudly at Subaru’s childish sulking. And, as he yells, the baby cradled in his arms, Spica, sucks in another mouthful of air. As the two men watch on helplessly, she once again explodes. [WAAAAAAAAUUUU!!!] [Whoa! She’s crying! Spica’s crying again! Hey Rigel, do something damnnit, you’re her older brother!] [If you’re playing that card, then YOU should be the one doing something about this!] Among the crowded city streets, in a certain boulevard, two men endlessly pass back the responsibility of calming the baby. Passing townsfolk look to see what the commotion is about, see that it’s these two clowning around, and proceed to casually ignore them with a face that says [oh, it’s the same deal as always]. As a result, the tired act of the crying baby, and the two men that make her cry, goes on. [This girl’s crying out her lungs and soul and yet not a single person comes out to help... Damn, what a cruel and unreasonable world! Humanity has fallen so damn far!] [We don’t have time for you to lament about the state of the goddamn world! If we can’t stop Spica’s crying, when she comes back, what do you think she’ll say] [When who comes back, and what will they be doing?] [Well that’s obvious, it’s....] Page 2 of 21 Page 3 of 21 [Rigel], Subaru calls as they huddle for a moment. Nodding their heads in unison, Rigel first turns around. He stares dumbfoundedly, his jaw ajar. Subaru follows his line of sight. [Hey, all done with the shopping?] [Yes, without delay. ...It looks like things were tough on your end though.] [Nah, Spica’s super energetic today. Once she starts walking and running around, I bet she’s gonna grow up to the type that just flings around men at her own insane pace. Such a nefarious future, it makes me both nervous and excited!] As Subaru chatters casually, Spica, cradled in his arms, slowly opens her eyes and notices the woman now standing before her. Despite her weak upper body, she opens her small hand and extends her arm out to her. Sensing Spica’s desire, Subaru feels just a bit lonely. [But well, ignoring her until she cries will just bring us back to square one. Here, take her.] [I have taken her.] Despite his rough speech, Subaru passes the baby with incredible care and caution. He handles her like a valuable, transient treasure, bringing a tiny smile to the woman’s face. The woman hugs the baby to her breast and carefully rocks her. [Yes, what a useless father and older brother aren’t they? Spica needs to get bigger quickly so she can scold the two of them.] Page 3 of 21 Page 4 of 21 [Hey hey, let’s not feed her ideas like that while she can’t understand words, okay?] Subaru suddenly imagines being scolded on both sides by the two, hands on their hips, after saying or doing something stupid. [Hm, it actually doesn’t sound so bad. In fact, it’s such a happy vision of the future that I’m tearing up.] [Well I don’t like it. Getting scolded by my little sister would ruin my dignity.] [Ha! The moment someone fools around with me, they have no dignity to ruin. Yes, yes, I can see it... you will adore your little sister and spoil her far too much, to the point where she’s scolding and spanking you without reserve. That will be your future!] [Don’t push some weird future onto me just because you like getting scolded and spanked! There’s no way I’ll be like that!] Subaru wags his finger tauntingly as Rigel retorts. But it isn’t Subaru who is agitated by the boy’s roars. It’s the bluehaired woman who was watching over their bumbling. With a calm yet sharp voice, she calls the boy’s name. [Rigel. What kind of language have you been using out in public. It brings your mother to tears.] [Yeah but...] [Your mother also doesn’t like your “Yeah but”s either. Also, what you said just now was mistaken.] Page 4 of 21 Page 5 of 21 She mercilessly scolds the stammering Rigel. She then turns to Spica, who has finally calmed down, and smiles briefly. [Your mother does not spank your father. Your father is always your mother’s number one favorite person after all.] Blushing, she makes a remark even more embarrassing than crying in public. Against his mother who so proudly makes such a declaration, Rigel finally throws in the towel. Subaru laughs nervously as the woman who watches over her family so happily caresses her hair. As if it was a fragment of the clear blue sky, Rem’s beautiful long blue hair shimmers elegantly with the wind. In a small district in the country of Kararagi, at a clearing that may or may not qualify as a park, Subaru lumbers onto a nearby bench. The boy with short blue hair named Rigel played rambunctiously with his friends. While the way he spoke with his father was awful, Subaru thought in moments like these that he might actually be a cute kid. [Now if only we could deal with those eyes that make him look like he could kill someone.] [We can’t do that. Those scary eyes are also a part of Rigel. No matter how much fun he’s having or how happy he is, strangers will always see his eyes and think he’s in a bad mood or that he’s some kind of delinquent. That’s just who Rigel is.] Page 5 of 21 Page 6 of 21 [I can hear you. Also, why does mom’s retort hurt even more than dad’s!?] Rigel was playing “Freeze Tag” (*literally Ice Oni in Japanese), a game that Subaru had popularized recently. Having been frozen, Rigel can only comment from afar. Subaru carelessly waves over to him while Rem waves ever so gently so as not to disturb Spica. Rigel puffs his cheeks and wrinkles his face in turn. At that moment, Subaru can’t help but think that Rigel looks just like he did in his own childhood albums. [In other words, he’s pretty much guaranteed to end up just like me. If I was him, I would definitely try to fight it... if I was told I’d be me in twenty years.] [Skilled in cooking and perfect in housework. Supporting her husband with all her love and care. Having such an ideal and wonderful wife... is what you’re talking about yes?] [Who is that happygolucky normie, damn he should just explode. Huh? Wait, that’s me!] Rem giggles lightly as Subaru slaps his head and sticks out his tongue. Rem, trying to calm herself by clearing her throat, glances sideways at Subaru’s face. [If you keep complimenting Rem like that, Rem might get carried away a little.] [Hm, was I really complimenting you just now? All I did was not reject what you said. Though everything you said was basically completely true.] Page 6 of 21 Page 7 of 21 Subaru knew that if he complimented her too freely, he’d get carried away with praise again and it’d be a mess. In such a public place as a park with kids running around, parents and neighbors were everywhere. Once he started sweet talking with Rem, she would egg him on until their affection was tomorrow’s talk of the town. That in and of itself wasn’t too bad, Subaru thought as he relished the warm afternoon air. If he closed his eyes, the comfort of the sun’s warm rays made him feel like he was floating. The exhaustion from working long, late hours felt like it was being washed away as his head wavered slightly from its weight. [Hm?] [If you’d like, please rest on Rem’s shoulder. Rem’s lap is currently being occupied.] Opening his eyes, Subaru finds his body already resting against Rem. There was a noticeable difference in their sitting heights. If he adjusted his neck, Subaru could comfortably rest his head on her shoulder. As he leaned, Subaru saw Spica lying peacefully in Rem’s arms. Her jet black hair from her father and the pretty shape of her fair face from her mother. A dear existence that lives day to day, ignorant of the world around her. [Grr, Spica. While you are my daughter, how dare you steal my precious sanctuary from me. I’ll be giving you the tickle treatment later.] [Dear, please wait until nighttime before monopolizing Rem’s breasts.] [Hey, let’s be careful about the remarks we make in a public park in broad daylight, okay!?] Page 7 of 21 Page 8 of 21 Rem’s bold comment caused a wave of panic in Subaru. But when he peered at her face, he saw that she was blushing fiercely. Really now, he thought. [My wife is just way too cute.] [Because Rem is loved by her dear everyday.] As Subaru flirts and Rem flirts in turn, they indulge in each other’s loving smiles. Rem’s giggling and Subaru’s goofy laughter could be heard faintly from afar. Eventually getting embarrassed, Subaru nervously scratches his cheek. [Then I guess I’ll take you up on your offer] he says as he rests his head on Rem’s shoulder. The sensation of the wind rustling Rem’s blue hair against his cheek felt very pleasant to Subaru. Its scent wafted to his nose as he rubbed his cheek against her shoulder. [Dear, that tickles.] [Oh, sorry. I guess I got a bit carried away because it felt so nice. I’ll learn from Spica and calm down. I’ll leave getting carried away to Rigel. Wow, Rigel’s suuuch a kiid~] [I can hear you, stupid Dad! Stop bringing me up all the time!] [Rigel. Your sister is sleeping at the moment. Please keep your voice down.] [GODDAMNIT!] Page 8 of 21 Page 9 of 21 The frozen Rigel screams like a delinquent, but none of his family responds. To add insult to injury, no one’s coming to unfreeze him either. At the moment, Rigel is thoroughly being teased. While Rigel’s personality, speech, and actions are similar to his own, it comforts Subaru that at the very least the other kids don’t bully him. At the same time, it doesn’t feel like they accept him as one of their own, making Rigel’s future admittedly not too bright. [We should make sure Spica doesn’t turn out like that. Even though Rigel’s like that, you have your mother’s looks so your future’s definitely bright. All that’s left is to pray you don’t get caught by a useless guy like me.] [There isn’t a person anywhere that could replace you. Rem’s dear is the only one in the world.] Laughing softly from his wife’s loving remarks, a comfortable silence falls between them. A gentle breeze caresses them as Subaru savors the heat from Rem’s body. Eventually, he carelessly drifts to sleep. Lately, the fatigue from laboring has built up in his body. Yet the precious moments spent with his family filled his days with bliss. Bathing in the bright sunlight, watching his son being teased by his friends, Subaru rests against his wife as he succumbs to a light nap. What a wonderful, blissful moment, he thought. [Subarukun] Hearing his name, Subaru opens his eyes. Peering in the direction of the voice, he finds Rem turning her neck to face him. He sees himself in her clear blue eyes as they wordlessly bring their lips together. Page 9 of 21 Page 10 of 21 [...my name] [] [It’s been a while. Lately it’s been “Dear” or “Your Father” after all.] Looking on at Rem, Subaru relaxes his face, yet Rem brings her lips to his once more. Her attitude reminds him of several years ago, the way she was from “when they had just escaped.” While she thought that he wouldn’t have noticed, Subaru had watched over her more closely than she thought. Closing his eyes, Subaru feels the wind rushing past them. Today’s shopping trip was in fact Rem’s idea. Subaru had a general idea what her intentions were for this trip. After all, [It’s been eight years since that day huh.] [So you remembered after all...] [Of course, to me.... No, to us wasn’t that day a huge turning point? There’s no way I’d forget. There’s no way I’d forget.] The day he lost against fate. The day he threw away everything, the day he ran away from everything. The day when he intended to give up everything, but just couldn’t give up one person. The decision from that day, and that girl’s love it was because of those that right now Subaru is able to live like this. [Subarukun, do you...] Page 10 of 21 Page 11 of 21 That familiar way of calling him, which she intentionally stopped using after the two escaped to Kararagi. In order to prove the bond of husband and wife to themselves and those around them... and also to try to build something distinct from the past they had escaped from. Until today, Subaru had not asked for the reason, nor did Rem ever tell him. Among the many things they left behind was this way of calling him. With a troubled face and a mix of emotions, she asks him, [Do you feel regret?] [Regret?] [Yes. About running away. About giving up. About throwing away everything. About choos] [If you say anything about choosing you, I’m going to get angry. I’ll take Rigel and Spica home straightaway. Actually, nevermind about Rigel. He can stay here.] From afar, Subaru sees Rigel make a sour face, but Subaru’s face tells him [We’re having an important talk right now]. He turns back to Rem and continues, [You know, it’s kind of late at this point, and honestly I’ve probably already told you this many times, tens of times, hundreds of times, so I don’t know if it’ll even mean much.] [Yes?] [I love you more than anyone else in the world. You’re the only one for me, and I’m the only one for you. And you’re definitely not the kind of woman that a guy like me could get from giving up and compromising.] Page 11 of 21 Page 12 of 21 Subaru moves towards Rem and softly flicks her forehead. A surprised Rem holds her forehead as Subaru moves his face in close. [Just as I promised that day, everything I have is yours. I will serve you. I will devote myself to you. I will live just for you. And now, I suppose I’ll live for our kids too.] With his lips approaching past her nose, Rem closes her eyes as he steals her lips. Sharing their light kiss, Subaru’s face hovers close enough to feel Rem’s quickened breath. And with a mischievous smile that hadn’t changed even with the passage of time, he says, [So will this put you at ease?] [....Rem is sorry. Rem is always so anxious. Because Rem keeps falling further and further in love with Subarukun. Every time it feels like things couldn’t possibly be any happier, Subarukun always manages to make Rem even happier. Rem is so happy, and loves Subarukun so much, and that’s why Rem is anxious.] Tears well in her eyes and her chest shakes as Rem admits to him how happy she has become. Shaking her head, she rests her forehead against his, and they share in their body heat. [Even though I can touch you right now, I’m always afraid I’ll lose you.] [Don’t worry. I won’t ever let you go, and I won’t go anywhere either. As long as I have your love, there’s no way we’ll ever be apart.] [Rem will never stop loving Subarukun] Page 12 of 21 Page 13 of 21 [Good, then we’ll always be together. I love you Rem.] While Rem’s head is filled with thoughts and emotions, Subaru once again kisses her. His lips brush against her teeth as he pushes further against the surprised maiden. Their tongues entangle as they feel the sensation of their warm saliva. They stop there and part their lips. Rem breathes shallowly as Subaru points his finger upwards and continues, [Also, don’t talk about it as if it was some sort of compromise. That would mean Rigel and Spica were born not from love, but sympathy. Spica is a crystallization of our love that we’ve been planning for years, and Rigel is the result of the fiery passion of our youth.] [....It sure was hard when Rigel was born.] In front of Subaru who was scolding her with a hand on his hip, Rem fondly reminisced with a smile emerging on her face. Now deep in the past, Rem waved her finger as if tracing back the memories. [After moving to Kararagi and finding a home and workplace, we were supposed to take our time getting things together and building our livelihood.] [Hey but, you know, we were young so we lacked patience and] [Even though Subarukun should have been exhausted after coming home from work, you always got really lively right before bed.] [Hey but, you know, we were young so we had too much stamina and] Page 13 of 21 Page 14 of 21 [When the employment was officialized, Rem became pregnant around the same time. At the time, Rem’s face practically turned blue.] [It’s kind of painful to admit the mistakes made in the springtime of youth....] In response to Rem’s bold accusations, Subaru could only stare into the distance while muttering sheepishly. In the distance, Rigel, who was currently being treated as a “mistake,” showed a sour face, but he read the atmosphere and calmed down without saying anything. Quite a kid, Subaru thought. Subaru nodded at his son’s remarkable growth. Beside him, Rem also looked on at her son’s sour face and, with a small breath, continued, [But when Rem was pregnant with Rigel, Rem was really, really happy.] [Well of course I was happy too. When I first heard, my nose started running and I pissed myself a little. Then I wanted to make sure it wasn’t a dream so I asked you to punch me, and it was a complete blood bath.] It may have been because Rem was emotional at the time, but she had swung full force at Subaru, causing him to slam into the wall with such force that the entire building shook. If she hadn’t unconsciously held back, it wouldn’t have been strange for Subaru to have died outright. Leaving aside those memories, Subaru could clearly remember the time Rem told him she was pregnant. He also vividly recalled the feelings welling in his chest. However, Rem shook her head at Subaru’s answer. He couldn’t quite understand the meaning behind it, so he cocked his head in turn. Page 14 of 21 Page 15 of 21 [The reason Rem was happy was somewhat different from the reason Subarukun was happy. The reason Rem was happy was because now... now Rem wouldn’t have to worry about losing Subarukun.] [.....] [To Rem, Rigel is a definite bond between Rem and Subarukun. It sounds wrong that way but, when we had our first baby, it was also a link between us that would always exist. ...That’s why Rem was so happy.] Perhaps Rem had always struggled with this anxiety. After throwing away everything she held dear, just the two of them escaped to a completely new land. With no one and nothing to cling to but each other, Rem always struggled with the fear that she would someday lose Subaru as well. Her low selfconfidence would prove an impressive match for Subaru’s. For Rem, who rates herself strictly, her life with Subaru was both fantastically happy and yet incredibly anxietyinducing. It was the birth of the new life between them that finally put an end to that uneasy time. [Did you have a hard time believing?] [No. Rem believes in Subarukun more than anyone in the world.] [That’s not it. I didn’t ask if you believed in me... I was asking if you had trouble believing in yourself.] Hearing Subaru’s response, Rem takes a small breath and nods. To Rem, Subaru’s existence was so very large. And yet because she looks at herself so poorly, she worried that her own existence was but a small shadow next to his. Page 15 of 21 Page 16 of 21 But in a way, Subaru also felt the same. He had always felt that, when compared to himself, Rem was far too wonderful of a girl for him. It’s so strange I can’t help but laugh, Subaru thought as his face relaxed into a goofy grin. Rem sees this and puffs her cheeks. [Nevermind. Rem was being dumb. It can’t be helped that you’d laugh at her...] [No, no that’s not it. I was just thinking that you and I are really very alike. And so then I thought that my wife is definitely the cutest in the world.] Unprepared for Subaru’s surprise attack, Rem freezes in surprise for a moment, and then explodes into a feverous blush. Watching her react like this, I really get the feeling that I love her, thought Subaru. More than anyone else in the world, I love Rem. I love her. I could scream it at the top of my lungs. Actually, in reality, he sometimes does. In the neighborhood, they’re known for being an incredibly loving couple. [Rigel, Spica.] [Hm?] Rem appears to lovingly call her children’s names. But she shakes her head to say [No]. She looks toward Subaru and says, [They were both the name of stars, yes? From the place that Subarukun came from, they were how you called them.] [Yeah, my dad was basically a nut, the sort of sad human being who could barely read, but I thought that his idea to name me after a star was good. I really like it, my name. “Subaru” is also the name of a star from there.] Page 16 of 21 Page 17 of 21 Back around elementary school, there was an assignment to investigate the origins of one’s name, and it was then that Subaru learned of the history of his name. When he learned that he was named after one of the dancing stars of the night sky, he couldn’t contain his excitement. Since then, while he couldn’t keep interest in much of anything, he at least continued to gaze at astronomy charts in his spare time. He knew the names of stars by heart, and if a chance to name something came up, it was always an obvious choice how he’d do it. [I’d always use the names of stars. With things like usernames on the Internet, I’d always use stars as nicknames. In a sense, aren’t these names SHINING!?] [Rem doesn’t know what Subarukun is talking about, but using the names of stars sounds beautiful. When the third one comes, we’ll do just that.] [Isn’t it a bit early to talk about a third? I mean, isn’t Spica still a baby?] [Aside from feeding, we can leave everything to Rigel. Why do you think Rem said to wait until Rigel was bigger before having our next child?] [You know, usually it seems like I’m mainly the one bullying him, but don’t you actually go at him way harder!?] Pondering the daily verbal abuse his son suffers, Subaru gets up and brushes himself off. As Rem looks up toward him, he casually stretches his back and shakes his hips. [I think it’s about time we head home and put away the groceries. Plus, there’s too many eyes around here to flirt to my heart’s content.] Page 17 of 21 Page 18 of 21 [Yes. Right now Rem is in the mood to flirt to with all her strength and passion.] [I I wonder if my libido will be able to keep up with the stamina of an oni....] Muttering to himself sheepishly, Subaru extends his hand to Rem, sitting on the park bench. Rem slowly grabs his hand, but Subaru suddenly pulls her up. The girl makes an audible [Wa!] as he skillfully catches her in his arms. He hugs her along with Spica and savors their warmth. [Alright, let’s go back. To our home that is.] [Yes dear.] Holding the groceries in one hand, he grasps Rem’s hand in the other. Walking half a step behind Subaru, Rem snuggles with him as they walk. [Hey, my son frozen for an eternity in a winter wonderland. Watching your stagnant game of freeze tag was supremely boring so we’ll be heading home. Go stay at a friend’s house for the night.] [So you’re flatly kicking me out for the night!? Plus, what kind of parents come to a park in broad daylight to kiss anyway!?] [Ha, you’re just jealous. Sorry, Rigel. This Rem belongs only to me.] [SOOOOOOO ANNOYIIING!!] While Subaru laughs proudly with his head held high, Rigel yells back with a demonic face. But seeing his father only get more festive, Rigel takes a deep breath and shakes his head. Page 18 of 21 Page 19 of 21 [Calm down, calm down me. Don’t get caught up in your old man’s pace. Calm down, calm down~. Alright, I’ve calmed down. So, what were you talking about with mom?] [Oh? We were talking about how your name comes from a star and stuff like that. You know our first idea was to name you “Vega.”] [That sounds strong as hell! Why didn’t you?] [Well, it sounds strong right? Like you would grow up to be really strong, and then you’d be too strong to handle in your rebellious phase, so I decided against it. Even though you’ll eventually surpass me in strength, the dad in me said he didn’t want to lose to his son so soon.] [You thought about all this for a baby who was only a few days old!?] Rigel flails about after hearing Subaru’s casual banter. Then, [Heeey, Rigel’s moving! You’re breaking the rules of freeze tag!] [Ah!] Despite ignoring him completely while he was frozen, the other children quickly pointed out his mistake the second he moved. Rigel’s in shock as he stands there stunned. Subaru pats him on the back and says, [Those who break the rules of freeze tag suffer a penalty game. You get tickled by the others until you can’t even cry anymore. Good luck.] [What the hell are you saying with such a serious face.... Hey, what are you, GUYS! Wait, stop for a second! Don’t just listen to everything this guy says! Wait, UWAAAAAAAA!!] Page 19 of 21 Page 20 of 21 Hordes of children descend upon Rigel and chase him about. Rigel tried to escape. But they eventually corner him. From there they grab his arms and push him to the ground. With no chance to resist, countless fingers begin tickling him. [So long kiddo. You were a good son. It was your father who was the bad one.] [Rigel, your mother and father have some important business to attend to, so please stay at a friend’s house for the night. Also, the use of your horns is forbidden. And don’t let your clothes get torn.] [I I’ll remember this you heartless parents!!!] As a mountain of fingers tickle him relentlessly, Rigel’s forced laughter can be heard even from a distance. Seeing her older brother in such a state, Spica raises her voice in excitement and delight. Well well, seems like she’s got promising taste, Subaru thought. Her position in the family will be a lot more interesting. To their beloved son whom they cannot help but adore, they showed a somewhat unusual way of expressing their love that day. Subaru pulled Rem’s hand along as he walked. Towards the precious place where his family lives, the place filled with peace and happiness that they call home. [Subarukun.] [Hm?] Feeling a tug on his arm, Subaru stops and turns around toward Rem. At that moment, a strong gust of wind blows about them. Subaru shuts his eyes involuntarily, opening them again after the winds had died down. Page 20 of 21 Page 21 of 21 Rem’s long blue hair was being carried by the wind, glimmering brilliantly as if it was blending into the sun’s shining rays. Long ago, Rem had started growing out her hair. For whom she had grown it, Subaru now had a good idea. And when he thought of longhaired women, the very first to pop up in his mind was of course the one in front of him, the one he loved most in the entire world. With her blue hair silently flowing behind her, and their beloved child held in her arms, Rem chased after Subaru with a brilliant smile on her face. Above all else, it was Rem’s smile that stirred such feelings of fondness and love within him. [Right now, Rem is the happiest in the entire world.] Page 21 of 21 IFChapterNatsukiRem.pdf Can't wait for OVA |

Rem loves the Subaru who loves Emilia enough to save her, but doesn't love the Subaru that wants to runs away with Rem... aww what cruel triangle. Dialogue's great, & giant Puck so fluffy. Seeing Barusu flush out his character was quite something. "How much do you know about the Subaru-kun that I see?" Flashback to what Emilia said about the ideal Emilia in Subaru's mind. |

Without reading much of the thread, I know most of the posts will be hatred for Subaru. Mainly because he shot down Rem after the most heartfelt, sincere of confessions, which also served to save him from doooooom. And also because he himself confirmed he was everything people thought him to be in his almost suicidal, Evangelion-esque self-loathing / introspective rant. BUT - and it's a big but - this is what the last 5-6 episodes, if not the whole series, have been building towards: the watershed moment where Subaru is forced to confront himself and accept that just because he's in another world he's not magically a better person. Little has been said of his former life, and many saw it as fake for a NEET to act like a social butterfly, but this confirmed his failings as a person run deeper than mere social unease, with his prior persona being a facade to protect himself. The depths his characterisation have reached make him one of the best developed protagonists I've seen in anime: a flawed person, but very much a person an not just the caricature I feared he would remain as. The episode itself was beautiful. Something like 20 minutes dedicated to just one conversation better described as the ultimate therapy session. Subaru's dialogue reminded me of No Longer Human - especially the part about how he should be too ashamed to live - and Rem was simply angelic in how she dealt with and reacted to the situation. The 'what if' scenario was a little overwrought but it drove home just how much thought Rem had given to what she said before she turned Subaru down. And the direction was wonderful: small touches like following Rem's finger as she talked. And the voice acting / music... It was a pity Subaru turned Rem down in a such a blunt way, but Rem knew what she was asking when she said she wanted Subaru not to give up: his entire motivation for being heroic is saving Emilia. He was honest, which was better than the alternative. |

There are not any person in this world that if they have lived the same as Subaru with Rem, especially what Subaru have lived (cuz the Back from deaths that made Rem remove some memories) can just say " I love Emilia" thus, without even doubt. I can't believe in his words. Subaru has to say what he really feels for Rem, if not he would be really cruel with Rem, and wouldn't be fair for her. |
