I don't care about Rem and that little love triangle but I find Subaru extremely annoying because of his stupidity. Seriously he's the only character of anime, who manages to become a little dumber with every new episode. |

Nothing at all, he's your typical edgy, harem, isekai protagonist for selfinserts. Also can we please stop making threads based on shitty youtubers ? This is MAL i believe that the level of discussion is higher than that of a youtube community. |

I'm comparing him with Keiji Kiriya (All You Need Is Kill), since they both are in the same situation, more or less. Keiji is composed (as much as possible in his situation at least), actively tries to break out of the loop and when it doesn't work out, he decides to use it to his advantage. Though he has the has the advantage of being slightly older and having basic military training. Subaru is a loudmouth, annoying and, honestly, rather stupid. All You Need Is Kill had the advantage not to devolve into a meaningless waifu war though. |

I must say that the thing that irks me most about Subaru is how he literally seesaws between 55 and 145 IQ multiple times throughout the series. I mean, I guess part of that is inevitable when you're literally dying and resetting several times per arc.. But his idiot moments are literally beyond stupid or irritating at times, and his genius moments are also quite sudden and are awkward at times. A lot of this is also compounded by stuff that the anime simply does not get right at all. For example, I found his relationship/love with Emilia, which the author keeps pushing, patently unconvincing which makes his outburst with Julius and at the selection ceremony quite pathetic. |

I think Subaru is a quite average character,and that's REALLY bad,compared to the anime as a whole,his character doesnt stand out,just a normal guy,he has no personallity,he's stupid,annoying,I dont particularly hate him,but i wouldnt say that I love him either. About whether he chooses Rem or Emilia,I'm okay with that,since Subaru isnt great or anything.Plus we havent seen much from Emilia,and Rem had much more screen time,atleast from the anime,so we cant make the final conclusion who is the best girl^^ Overall I think I'm the neutral one,but if someone said who would I choose if I were Subaru,probably Rem(the reason is above). |

i liked him until the author realised, fk this is a web novel and made him the most tryhard mc possible >destroy countless timelines >is really the chosen one despite being built up not to be one >literally was given chance to end his suffering but doesnt >only girl who truly understands him is in perma coma and is literally an unreal |
So embarrased with Tensura fans and the fandom, how have we degraded |

I dislike him as a person. He isn't very likable and while he does try to improve over time (and is also forced to in order to progress the/his story), he always returns to his old state of mind whenever the pressure is off. He got points for not hooking up with Rem, knowing what she can be like and sticking to someone he truly loves, he made a good decision. But at the same time he really has to improve and make up for past mistakes before I'll accept a relationship between him and Emilia. |

ah Subaru...the most insufferable, tryhard, arrogant, demanding MC I have ever witness in any anime, so bad that makes Kirito as a MC decent. His constant meddling and stupidity left me dumbfounded. Even after he learns his lessons in common sense and not act like the world owes him, he falls back to his old ways very easily. The best thing that ever happen to him as a character is when that knight beat the shit out of him for being a dick. I am sure everyone cheered like me when that happened. Re-zero is a terrible anime anyway, so i am not surprised it has such annoying MC. and what is the deal with that waifu war/ best girl bullshit? seriously, i don't even understand it. |

I love that character. He is well written when compared to many fantasy anime protagonists. We are expected to dislike him and the author pretty much makes it a point that Subaru is his own person and especially not someone who can easily self-insert in him. He will take actions that will not always go with the audience's wishes. Subaru has a huge set of insecurities and emotional baggage with him, primarily due to him being a NEET/hikkikomori. His erratic behaviour is further bolstered by the fact that he simply doesn't know how to behave around people. He went on treating this new world as if it was a game-world where NPCs have predefined personalities and he is the hero of the game where everyone just listens to him. It's not very often we see characters where the author systematically breaks him down (although the author did this by a roundabout way of torturing the guy to mental breakdown, like it or hate it). Personally, I thought it was a great way of shattering that 'nice-guy' complex Subaru suffers from. Underlying message behind his character growth, 'if you were shit in the previous life, you are going to remain like shit in your new life. To break out of the mold, grow up and change'. The infamous episode 18 is just about that. It's a psychological anime for a reason, so it's kind of expected to try to understand the characters and their behaviours to make sense of things. It's a damn shame that the characters in the anime are unfortunately, or rather the entire anime, was seen through the spotlight of waifu-tards when it wasn't even about that. It's pretty obvious that plenty of people misunderstood the point of episode 18 but hey, whatever floats their boat. Waifu-goggles are the new fad. The anime does more of show instead of tell, which is what likely caused misunderstandings. |

I don't exactly dislike him, or like him either but here are some flaws on his character (that also includes convenience on the story): 1- His determination on the first arc flew away and he ends up being way more stupid. He should have guessed several things that could have helped him in the future, but he decided to ignore it because "uh, but muh waifu" 2- His stupidity lead him to die pointless deaths only for the sake of shock factor. I could have think of different ways to tell his situation without actually saying he returns from death. He could have said that he was cursed by Satella and that's the reason he smells like her. 3- For the sake of plot convenience, he can't say that he returns from death. He could have easily said that he can foresee the future or something like that, maybe not everyone could believe him, but Emilia could have. 4- He had the strength to almost wield a big club, he should have practiced with a sword after that and he might have not embarrassed everyone at the Castle ceremony including his waifu. |

What exactly is there to like about him? People just point out how relatable he is and awkward as if he's the outstanding example of the hikkikomori. Also him coming to this realization that "maybe I'm acting entitled" and growing from that in a pretty boring to me. If all there is to him is how he was shit and how he grows to be decent but there is nothing else to like about him then *yawn* |

I'm want to say I'm neutral towards him but if I was forced to pick, I would say I liked him more so than disliked. He at least kept me humored. Kamira00 said: I don't think Subaru is a bad character, but I just feel like he is in the wrong show... Is that not a point of being an isekai? To be a different and conflicting character to the norms of the world they get sent too? If anything, most main characters you see in an isekai are too quick to change/adapt and don't feel like they are from another world, making that element of the story meaningless compared to if the story was change to just being born in that fantasy world from the start. |

Not a very long answer I think—I blink to see the darkness around me; I would not say ‘I feel it’ to extract a lot of metaphor involves in “feelings”, I merely observed it—with my own bias self and confirmed that it is indeed dark. I think that darkness can be the light to others, and to some it might be the blue-ish clouds surrounding the skies high above—across the horizon, ohh well merely reiterating what I said is a waste of time, I’m basically here—writing this very ‘unprofessional’ post to respond and to think why the world is compose of always, users and people of on not the same side. While I’m at it, let me tell you this: I know nothing of how to write professional; I merely know how to just, put what I think plain and simple; I can sugar coat everything I said to sound professional yet that would certainly not go to my consciousness or even inside my head, so I’ll tell this, I know nothing of what I just typed at the beginning of this bullshit. What I just want to say is that—possibly even you can’t see that—sum it all up, would be why waifu wars are such a very interesting yet dull at the same time. This is not at all insightful nor informative to the extent of allowing all existing waifu war to be included in such, a dull and very time consuming shitpost-- the form of blog post. Another bullshit, excerpt that doesn’t really tell anything about something I want to talk about. I’ve been, feeling of doing this so I’m quite hyped up, despite this turning into another bullshit that you’ll know how It will basically end, I guess let us start… The truth about waifu war is the fact that none, are above than others or well-written as a character. Despite that—which are most commonly known phenomenon of all existing bullshit, it still exists, though varies from of course, famdom to famdom, it ranges from the overall kawaii points of the waifu in the series; her outfit which drastically—of course increases her waifu points; others might inject their fetish to their waifu—which, as a lot of you might know, a fap material indeed. We can list out various aspects and/or things that a waifu should—will have, but for most part, what carves these things are how does she act on the series, her action will dictate (for most of us), if she is truly a waifu material. Certainly, to certainly users, a waifu’s characteristics will not matter if she can say “Onii-chan~ Onii-chan~” so magnanimously that everything, all the shit in this world doesn’t matter anymore. And, that is what—most of us call ideal, since we do know that, fiction characters, thus our waifus, will stay as ideals carve by someone who knows how to manipulate this ideal—transform her into something we’d love. Certainly, not here to just talk about that someone, but I’m here to point out, why waifus are ideals created for us and why does it hold much more than that. Certainly—plainly because real life sucks, and we thus seek something far better, and removed from it; that offers salvation none in the reality can offer. In the end of all that, well—bullshit, there is a clear distinction as to why, Rem is far superior than Emilia. In fact, even Haruka, and LL waifus are far superior than Emilia; even though those characters don’t share the same series. To put it bluntly, Rem is superior than Emilia, excluding those fappable loli waifus, because weighing Rem and the loli waifus are just not possible—Rem is seriously gonna fall off. To simply grasp, how things will fall off, since I did quite meme on that; I will merely jolt down why and how Rem is superior. As I’ve said before, her maid outfit will always be a plus one for me, that does indeed increase her waifu points—drastically at that. While I’m just point it out, her screen time, which is relatively almost 90% of the series—Emilia where basically hides inside the mansion, clearly illustrates to what extent her waifu points had been exposed. The fact that, Rem values her only sister to the rest of the world, shows her compassion—undying love for her sister, that to me, would be a quality Emilia could not obtain. Rem might be—no, she is bad at cooking, basically all motherly stuff, which certainly earns her yet another waifu points. Her carelessness illustrates her more fappability side of her character, to what extend author-sama knew a lot will fall from this cliché, that I don’t know; I merely injected what I feel like—to what I see in the series regardless of her actions or how the plot, will try to at least make her look like a demon. I think mapping out every detail of Rem’s action in the series would merely retell the story—not the purpose of this whole bullshit, nor this a review since I clearly don’t know how to create one and not a character analysis because looking at it on the perspective of someone who’d fap to kawaii maids saying “Goushijim-sama~ Goushoujin-sama~” would be quite a weird way. What this will deliver, would be a lot of random bullshit that I think you already see (who will read this anyway?). Anyway, as I’ve said more often than not, Rem should not be called a demon( let Emilia have that and she’d be happy to have that title for her own sake), Rem merely will kill the whole world and save her sister, what’s wrong about that? Isn’t that love on itself? Subaru certainly liked being killed by her--many times as we’ve clearly seen. Although no matter how we look at it, Rem will still feel indebt to Subaru because without Subaru, Rem would not escape from that feeling of guilt not being able to save his sister, his family and ultimately herself for being weak. That’s why I think, Rem don’t hold romantic feelings for Subaru—she merely feels obligated to thank him, and that confession—to Rem, is merely repaying what Subaru had done to her. Rem did not save Subaru for the reason of having a romantic feeling to her, close to it though but not romantic feeling—in fact you can call it loyalty to stand beside Subaru and repay his kindess---which later on revealed as just his ego bursting… Anyway we’ve already seen how screwed Subaru is and how more of a human he is than others. But it could still happen, the option of Rem being not reject still exists, merely because the option that Rem was rejected happened, although for me that does not really change anything—for me, I’ll will still love the maid who can’t do anything other, yet can verbally abuse me, and still find it moe. Rem did not just shine bright as the starts during that EP, in fact the first time she was introduced to the series, I’ve felt that she’s the best gril, but that does not truly matter. Waifu wars in general often, or in my opinion revolves more how the viewers inject their own fetish to the character, even if I have found good things that Rem portrayed—to others that might not be what’s good to her—to others Emilia’s quirkiness, and her silver-hair might just what what’s moe to them. Yet it still continued and will it be? Now, now, I think Emilia is your ideal gril. However, for me she isn’t. She just doesn’t have that kawaii points that Rem have. Nope, she’s not wearing a maid outfit that very suits to Rem; which increases her kawaii points. Emilia on the other hand, wait… I forgot what she even wears in the series, mainly because I felt like author-sama forgots her. Anyway, she wears a very decent outfit that in some ways captures her, shyness which translates to her kawaii points, I guess. A Goddess and a waifu is not really a separate entity. One should worship his waifu, and thus praise how she had saved his soul. Repeatedly. This is what I believe, but in my opinion everyone’s waifu is their goddess, which is sometimes often used and will be associated by other users. If then, by following such definition, I think the connotation of a goddess is someone you love yet a waifu is someone you don’t love; or someone who you devalue below your goddess. Seriously, why waifu wars starts from the first place. Do we follow the creed of fetishes to measure one’s fapability? Or do we follow the mathematical approach, in which we literally do what it means. I get that, Emilia might be someone, to others who are above Rem, for simple reason such as, Subaru loves her. Just simply because of how she had, sadly saved him. So sadly, that Rem had repeatedly saved Subaru more than once, Emilia had done it but I guess the weight of the action isn’t additive now. Thus, placing Rem’s action be more above than Emilia. This, by far will be my own speculation now, I’ve watched the series but had forgotten about it so I might be very inaccurate of what I will have to say. I’m retelling this in a sense, of Rem’s perspective; Subaru does not and will not be present in my narration at least his thoughts. I’ll retell it by saying that, Rem does not love Subaru. She merely, well at least said “I love you” (Re:Zero) in a circumstantial point of view. Love and loyalty goes hand and hand. You can love someone but does not trust that dude and you can be loyal and don’t love that dude; it now speaks from the fact that outside factor will play like, for say money—any sort of incentive will do just so that you can get that loyalty for a price of let’s say, your hobby. But love and loyalty can still be mixed together forming a well-balanced feeling. Rem is like that, she loved Subaru not because of his thicc dicc or whatever, it merely because Rem felt that Subaru does things that, well very Subaru-ish; save someone and shit. Yes, I firmly believe that Rem loves Subaru not in light as Subaru loves Emilia. Rem merely loves Subaru for who he is. Quite ironically that he isn’t what she thought he is. It does still play the role that, Rem managed to point of what if… things like “we can be a family, you’ll work in the factory” (Re:Zero, EP018) but that is merely a circumstantial perspective, in literally what will happen if love forms inside of Rem and not love and loyalty. I believe that Rem told this things to him to have a taste of what he truly wants to do. And I get it, that is not to be with Rem, for she is just there to be a catalyst in the series and nothing more than just that. Rem doesn’t want anything from Subaru. She already has Ram, and I think that’s what she basically needs in this world; there is a reason why Rem will kill Subaru, and that’s because of protecting Ram. She’s action is justified in a sense that, are you still going to preach about righteousness while a mob is killing each other in front of you?That would be insanity, Rem have no choice but to kill someone, even if it’s the world, who could be a threat to Ram and even if it’s Subaru. Emilia saved Subaru once. Just once and that’s all, we do know that and that will not be taken away. Beatrice had also saved Subaru more than once, and Rem had saved Subaru more than once. If we try to weigh their importance based on the number of attempts she had saved Subaru, wouldn’t Rem be at the top and Emilia will be at the bottom? Rem wanted nothing from Subaru, the same as Beatrice and the same as Emilia. Denying their purpose to save Subaru even if the plot dictates it and merely focus on how Rem wants Subaru’s dicc so bad is very childish. Rem already have everything in this world, that would be Ram. Beatrice doesn’t care about Subaru in the first place. What about Emilia? Don’t you even consider that, Emilia might not save Subaru at that time? Don’t you think everyone virtually could have done the same thing? I think of it in this way, like anyone of you would. The waifu have nothing to do with it except for Subaru’s lust for Emilia. He basically, did everything he could, regardless of how retarded it is just to have her attention. Literally, everyone can see that. Emilia had done nothing to save Subaru at that arc. Beatrice saved him, but not Emilia, then later on was saved by Rem, countless of times. You’re mistaken in the fact that Emilia had saved Subaru once and it automatically became endless. I think this is the truth on the series. The time paradoxes and lags are emphasized to be caused by the witch. Rem can’t do that, only the witch. So, wouldn’t it be possible for Subaru to “control” the time thus at least controlling the actions of the whole characters, I mean he can basically revive all the time. Also for the lulz... short answer I do not like Subaru, I actually feel like his a real person personified in an anime which sees the different aspects of his self. Rem as a character is a very very good "back-up" in a way that without her, Subaru would probably be not the man we've seen at the end and will probably gone mad. |

Frankly, I hate him because that show was a boring waste of my time that started out fun and became incredibly stupid and boring. That show actually had an impact on my life at least as an anime watcher, made me really reconsider my goal to not drop much anime.

I've only read the very first book and seen the equivalent portion of the anime series, but I found him kinda at least attempting to be clever in the books, while in the anime series he came off as conceited and a bit full of himself. |

As far as self-insert MCs goes, I felt like Subaru was at least tolerable. Honestly was kinda surprised when I heard about the amount of hate he gets.

That said, I still dropped Re:Zero after 4 episodes and can't really weigh in on that whole choosing Emilia fiasco. |

First and foremost, he is annoying. He screamed a lot and his voice is obnoxious to say the least. He went from "there's nothing I can do" to "I have every answer to this" too conveniently. Instead of doing trial and error again and again and again until he succeeds, he tried and failed a couple of times, gave up and screamed at Rem, Rem encouraged him, and boom he got the solution. Some moments he is smart, and then some moments he couldn't be any dumber. Most of the drama in the second half wouldn't happen if he could just calm down and talk like a reasonable person, but he had screamed at people because muh panic (and before someone say he's realistic, each loop lasts several days. A normal human being wouldn't be in extreme panic for more than an hour) I don't understand the "deconstruction of self-insert protagonist" that people always bring up either. The wimpy and weak protagonist had been a thing for decades now, what's so groundbreaking about Subaru? Did I mention he screamed a lot? |

I dislike Subaru because he is presented as the underdog and powerless but he's the most powerful character in the story by convenience from the author. I dislike how he faces the three arc in the same way just on a bigger scale: try -> fail -> cry -> act like a jerk -> waifu raises his morale -> become the hero while ironically Re:Zero fans say that he's not typical hero despite him being so every time he progresses. About Rem? meh, she has a nice backstory but otherwise forgettable. The reason Subaru can't chose her from the author's point of view because she is a boring character with not personality and identity created solely for being discarded. If Subaru chose Rem the show would become dull and boring because the lack drama and because Subaru wouldn't have anything else to strive for. Also found her character inconsistent since in a loop she does what she does because he reeks of the witch but in other loops she gets close to him or even falls in love despite the scent of the witch. Seemed like a one time excuse to confuse the viewers because plot twists that didn't get properly developed. |

I hate Subaru, yes, but I don't think he's a bad character. Sure, he started out as your basic self-insert isekai MC, but by the midpoint of the series when the show starts calling him out on some of his BS he becomes a fully fleshed out character that lashes out because of his uncertainties. That does not make him a good person, but it does make him way more interesting to watch than any other character in the show. Fun fact: I feel the exact opposite about the fan favorite Rem. She is very much a good person, but that also makes her incredibly boring to me. It's like she's the personification of waifu bait. Subaru most definitely does not deserve her. Rem is such a doormat that he would walk all over her in a relationship... I cannot see how that would be healthy. A relationship cannot be built onto just one party constantly sacrificing herself. I would feel so bad for her. And no, just because I think Subaru doesn't deserve Rem, I'm not a fan of Emilia. She's barely on-screen! I'm usually not a BL shipper, but out of the characters we have been introduced to, Julius would seriously (I swear I'm not joking) be the best love interest by faaaar. By the end of the series they clearly have begun to respect each other, have a good chemistry with some fun banter and most important of all, they can dare to call it out when the other is being unreasonable. Seriously, if he wasn't a guy they'd be on it already. ...But let's face it, that's not gonna happen because it's a LN aimed at guys. In that case, Emilia is the back-up-option I guess... Although I'm not really into her, at least she stood up to Subaru once, so they do have some chance of a healthy relationship. Incidentally, that scene of Subaru being an ass and Emilia finally snapping back at him is my favorite scene in the series lol. It's also the kind of scene that would never happen if Subaru was as bland as most self-insert MCs are. |

I don't like him, but don't dislike him either. Instead of Subaru, I really hate all the 'handsome prince' in re:zero, especially the one that looks really close with Emilia |

I have not watched the entire anime but I don't think the characters were necessarily the worst. The story and plot was boring and the fight scenes sucked. |

I think I dislike the show more than I dislike Subaru. I dunno about their cars though. I do see a lot of them around here though. |

I like him a bit, he has personality IMO. Not one of my fav characters but decent. Without the memes and dumb shit he sometimes do as a comic relief he is pretty realistic. Most people can't handle the truth and that is "most of us are cowards, selfish and not totally good people". Tho, he can be considered a pretty nice guy that went trough a lot of shit. A classic sentence to describe him is: "Oh, he is such a pussy, if he knows he can revive why he fight so much?" or "He is such a duchebag, why he thinks he deserves atention, he is so dumb, he can't realize that they don't remember him doing that stuff". Would you cut yourself every day because you heal? NO, so why he should die like it's nothing? Btw, he revive but he isn't in control of that power. If you work hard for something you want to be acknowledged especially in extreme cases like his. Resume, people doesn't like struggles they want to feel like the mc so they want to see all their ideals in him not the reality. That's why badass and underdog characters are so liked. As a plus, that is also why NTR is so hated, they feel like the mc so they feel betrayed. |

uninstallthegame said: damn, so many people expected something brilliant from subaru. didn't they show him as a usual fucking neet going to a convenience store and reading manga? he's like the most basic guy. i would really love to see you being put through the same shit and seeing your actions apparently, most of the people would know what to do right away and wouldn't be confused of what the fuck is going on at all, right? i sympathize with subaru. he was written pretty well, just an average neet going through death every time and loosing his mind in the process. what did people expect from his character? something like tom cruise from edge of tomorrow? smh Yeah, it boils down to pretty much this, lol |
