people dont understand this anime

If it takes longer than 5 more comments for an argument to start I'll be deeply impressed. Re:zero novels are a masterpiece though

slenderblak said:
its truly a masterpiece, the writting is brillant and the characters are all great on their own

Adam_Boi said:
Yeah I agree. But I guess most people just see it as waifu bait.

Imdyinside said:
I'm just gonna say it
in my eyes, mushoku tensei is masterpiece

There is problems with characters development. Subaru is one h&ll of a cringe character for most of season 1. I know people that dislike Re:Zero because they can't stand him.

Also it takes too much time to develop the FMC, and worst, they focus on develop a side character in a way the FMC looks like the side character and they literally need to make the real side character disappear in other to develop other characters, like the real FMC.

Polvo_Aranha said:
The fact the author needed some character disappear shows there is a problem that they fixed by making this character disappear.

its a ok anime....More of a waifu based anime

slenderblak said:

slenderblak said:

Polvo_Aranha said:

Setting up this problem out of this piece 😁

There is someone blind here. I'm a Rem fan, but I do recognize her popularity became a problem and the author 's fault in it.

I remember dropping this anime because “isekai washed”, but came back to it later and finding out the plot was actually pretty damn good

Oremonogatari said:

Makes the female MC look like the side character? Do you mean giving a side character more time? Also, you say side character in an attempt to understate her importance, compared to the main female character, but Rem is arguably the most vital component in regards to Subaru’s character. Without Rem, there is no “good Subaru”. Also, it was made abundantly clear that Rem was not the female MC; isn’t the whole meme “I love Emilia”?. Your critiques are not valid because they are very black and white, without much insight. Re:zero isn’t really the kind of binary story you seem to use as your basis for criticisms.

TL;DR: ur wrong and im correct

Polvo_Aranha said:


So is it okay side characters getting more screentime than the main character, to the point the main character just disappear for almost half of the season?

Yeah, you are right, it's totally normal a main character being a side character in its own story.

Oremonogatari said:

Yes, its normal for a main character to not get the majority of the screen time for a single arc in a story as long as Re:zero. And once again, like I said, you’re trying to force Rem into the simple role of a side character. When you do this, it seems crazy for her to get more screentime than Emilia, but she is not your simple side character. But didn’t I explain this already?

if season 2 wasn't such a mess I might be inclined to agree with you that re:zero is a "masterpiece" or at least close to being one.

Polvo_Aranha said:

So why is she credited as "supporting character" in MAL?

Polvo_Aranha said:
Also Re:Zero Wikia...

Oremonogatari said:

I never once refuted that she was a side character dude. I think you aren’t even reading what I’m saying, so I should probably stop humouring you.

slenderblak said:
i dont agree about that, i felt arc4 or season 2 were way better than the last season/arc

epidemia78 said:

s1 had suspense/thriller elements, much in the vein of Steins;Gate.

s2 replaced the thriller with generic battle shounen elements. Too many characters; all of them annoying with obnoxious quirks in place of actual personalities. Too many "tragic" (sappy) backstory episodes and a rushed final battle that was over in like, five minutes.

Oremonogatari said:

Usually, the novel will solve the issue of personality, and almost anything lacking depth such as the final battle.

It’s a phenomenal anime and it used to be one of my favorites BUT after going back to it and giving both season 1 and 2 a rewatch it’s evidently clear that ReZero is indeed a 9/10 instead

I read some of the novel back when it was unclear if we were even going to get a second season. Sanctuary arc was about 4 times longer than it needed to be, filled with bloated writing that just goes in circles. I dropped it somewhere in the next arc which seemed like it was leaning even more heavily into the battle shounen tropes.

What made season 1 so good is that the anime cut out all of the amateurish writing and compressed 3 story arcs into one seamless narrative. S2, not so much. It's too faithful to the source material forgetting that anime is a visual medium. There might be some good ideas in there but its all so padded with filler just to stretch out those good ideas across as many books as possible.

slenderblak said:
it is anything but a generic battle shonen and the tragic backstory is a way to add more development in a character, not the other way around, and as much as i love steins gate, even if s2 does have the element of suspense, it is done in a different way in which it replies to many questions we asked toward the show from s1, and no the final battle wasnt rushed, it was a whole part fit into it and was sastisfying and took a hard turn to finally win it, the lack of a strong ally and subaru focusing on gaining garf's trust was a great part in character growth and i believe it is way better done than it was in s1, arc 4 was brilliant in many ways and is considered by many as the best or second best arc of the whole story

i dont get it, if you wanted more depth then why are you complaining for the novel to be extremely long ? and isnt going in circles what the series is known for ?

epidemia78 said:
blah blah blah. this is like re:zero dialog. Sorry but season 2 ruined a good show and nobody can convince me otherwise.

epidemia78 said:
the novel's length is due to poorly written dialog that stretches pages and pages saying the same things over and over again. Not because it's "deep".
