| So subaru made reckless decision again, but I can't hate it and I understand him. He is so fucked up and he is having an extreme anxiety. So he is still recovering from it, but then that things had happen, and he was so desperate. He can't hold back himself. At first, Emilia is being inferior by the other candidates and royal offcials, for being half elf that and silver hair resembles the witch of envy. So Subaru in that case can't stand it seeing Emilia in tht way, he made a reckless decision and made a fuss then proclaimed himself as the Knight of Emilia Then Julius stand in the way and told Subaru that proclaiming himself as a Knight of Emilia is a insult to the Knight, with the fuss Subaru made so he was kicked out from the palace. Then, Julius dueled him in a sword fight and this just showed how very inferior Subaru is and he was defeated and passed out. So Subaru lost the trust of Emilia, cause he can't explain fully himself why he is being so reckless to be in Emilia's side so he could protect her. The dark hand stopping him. Then because of that he became more desperate and said the things that had happened in the first tine they met, the things happened in his loop about saving them in the mansion, but Emilia can't understand it and just realizes she has many debt to Subaru. So yeah he was left alone in a way he was so fucked up and confused again. |

Subaru clearly is in love with Emilia, and although he did some stupid shit, he did not deserve to be completely cut off from Emilia. They're both wrong in their own ways, they're both bad people in their own ways, and they both don't seem to understand each other. I honestly think Subaru is better off abandoning Emilia, and just staying with Rem. No he actually made some pretty good points. Subaru's arrogance and selfishness have been a part of his character from the very beginning. It was only a matter of time before he finally fucked up massively. Wait, when did I say that I didn't think he fucked up massively? I just also don't believe that he deserved to be dropped like a sack of potatoes by Emilia because she's insecure and insular. |

| I think subaru went ''homura'' status. Its like going back in time for someone you love over and over makes you an obsessive and misunderstood character. I mean, homura did it so much for Madoka, like subaru is doin' for emillia. |
 |
| I don't even know what to say...i totally wasn't expecting this. What will happen next? Will Subaru kill himself and try to not make the same mistakes? Or he will continue like this and later things will get better? I feel bad for both of them but i am on Subaru's side, he went through so much alone... |

I honestly think Subaru is better off abandoning Emilia, and just staying with Rem. English lesson for the day: I made a comparison, not a simile (google the definitions of the two if you want); between Subaru and entitled beta guys who can't get laid, highlighting the entitled mentality that many guys have. If I made a comparison with how similar Rem and Ram are in character, does that make them the same? No. They're twins that have their own personalities and differences that make them quite different individuals. If I compared the twins' appearance to Japanese red and blue oni "they're as contrasting as oni" then that would be a simile. To conclude; no, Subaru is not a thirsty guy looking for a good time. He is however, an entitled little bitch, LIKE guys who can't get laid. As for Subaru being in love with Emilia: Well no shit Sherlock, how long did it take for you to figure that out? I honestly would have never guessed in a million years. How about the next time you reply to someone, be a little less condescending like a prick, otherwise, you'll receive an equally condensing reply. Now that's off my chest, I do agree with you that Subaru is better off with Rem. Good day. |
AivanK said: Rem will be there for him, but things will be fucked up more, I think the more he was attached to the person the more he would be fucked up, what a pitiful curse to him ;-; *sobs*I don't even know what to say...i totally wasn't expecting this. What will happen next? Will Subaru kill himself and try to not make the same mistakes? Or he will continue like this and later things will get better?

I just also don't believe that he deserved to be dropped like a sack of potatoes by Emilia because she's insecure and insular. You watched the episode right? His actions the last two episodes led directly to Emilia distancing herself from him. Since he can't tell anybody about his reviving of course she can't understand his seemingly unhealthy obsession with her. Making a fool of himself and challenging the knights like that, embarrassing Emilia in the process, when he wasn't even supposed to be there was the last straw. Sure as the viewer we can say that it was unfair for her to leave him like that, ONLY because she's not aware of what happened the first time they actually met, but in the context of the story that was 100% fair for Emilia to do. It would have been ILLOGICAL for Emilia to keep up relations with Subaru after his recent actions. Yes I watched episode, stop being a condescending prick, and I already said I agreed with you on the fact that he fucked up, but where do you keep getting this "unhealthy obsession" bullshit from? You do realize that Subaru is in love with Emilia, right? I thought that was fairly obvious. His actions are a direct result of his love for her. You don't think its utterly absurd that she won't understand this? You honestly don't think its unfair for her to only think of herself in this situation? But I mean, I guess its TOTALLY logical to base his entire character based off of 2 fucking episodes. Sure, he was arrogant before, but he never went to lengths like this. You people are utterly void of empathy, actually fucking understand something from Subaru's point of view before making Emilia out to be this perfect girl who dindu.nuffins. |

Subaru was also only doing those things for his own ego, etc. Well it seemed that you were completely ignorant of that fact since you, being the lovely unempathetic prick that you are, made Subaru out to be only wanting sex. |

Seriously..."English, mother fucker, do you speak it!?" - Samuel L Jackson. That's it, I'm done trying reason here. Edit: To answer your question, he feels entitled to not sex (as you've misunderstood), but entitled to be in Emilia's life and her affairs--that's the point I'm making. |

| There's something to be said for a story where the primary source of conflict is the main character being a pretentious asshole waving his 2 inch dick in everybody's faces while they were just trying to get shit done. At least he got chewed out at the end, which means the author knows what he wrought. Still, when I watch shit like this, I can't help but wonder how I'm supposed to be entertained by this shit. |
All Subaru has to do is to jump from the window and reload from the last check point. Out of all the candidates; the green hair chick looks the most promising. She so dignified and charming, and that uniform. |
| Felt was brilliant here. Subaru in this episode remind me of Ikoma. Only know how to talk and shout loud but doesn't use brain. |
But it's important to remember that a movie review is subjective;it only gives you one person's opinion. http://www.classzone.com/books/lnetwork_gr08/page_build.cfm?content=analyz_media&ch=30 It doesn't matter if you like LoGH,Monster etc.If you are a jobless or college/school dropout living in your mom basement, you are still an unintelligent loser. Taste in anime does not make you a better person.If elitist don't exist, casual pleb and shit taste also don't exist. |
| People keep saying that he should restart but are you watching the show? It's been established many times that dying is very painful. Think about that a little abit. Just because he has this power (which it isn't really a power more like a horrible curse) doesn't mean he can abuse it whenever he wants. |

You also don't seem to understand what the word "entitled" means, since you haven't actively laid out why he's entitled for loving Emilia. The nigga fucking jumped off cliffs, killed himself, kill others, etc just to save Emilia. Now obviously to Emilia she doesn't know that because of the loops, but the point still stands that Subaru isn't entitled, and that you seem to completely forget all the shit he did for her during previous time loops. |

Very nice interpretation of this episodes events. 1+1=2? Go read the web novel if you need help understanding what's going on in this episode. ( Arc 3 if your interested https://kagurojp.wordpress.com ) Do you have an actual point to make or are you just advertising the novel? |
bastek66 said: And so Subaru went full retard and fucked up completely. Now Emilia will leave for almost entire arc and won't appear till near end of anime. I hope no one will blame her for it. I don't blame her for it. I've been praising the writing up to this point, but Subaru going full retard like this is extremely out of character for him at this point. This episode felt really cringe-worthy at points, and much of the drama felt extremely forced. Your comment, due to being extremely spoiler-y, brought up some extremely unpleasant fears. If the rest of the season is him trying to get over his baby drama I can see the quality of the show dropping quite quickly. |
Fluffmaestro said: So let's take this like we are not viewers but in Emilia's head. 1. you have met this guy for just about a month or two. 2. He is acting weird and say things not always possible for you to comprehend. 3. He is doing a kind thing, but he overdo it and you have seen him break down because of it. 4. He keeps acting like he knows you more than he should. He even claims he does even though you know nothing about this. You met this guy in a random shack in the slums. decided to help him as he was dying and then you saw him try his hardest to make up for it by work, breaking down, then running and help a village. All this by still claiming to know more and more about you. 5.In the end, as he follows you as a part of his job, the job as a servant... to listen to you and follow your orders. He decided not to listen to you. He is not only showing up at the place you forbid him to go to anyway.. He also interfere in a way that could harm your position. 6. He continues and in the end almost gets killed though you in the last seconds try to stop him. 7. He wakes up, acting rather strange, once again claiming you two have been through so much but you still only remember that shack and seeing him running around the mansion and occasionally talk and learn him some stuff. you saved him one, but he talks about more, about several times. 8. He lashes out at you for claiming that all this doesn't make sense. You do the logical thing on calling him out before it takes to far. He insist and even claims that all he do, he do for you... until he begins to get more passive aggressive and begins to claims you owe him. 9. And when you ask about it. He can't tell you. He can't explain why he knows this things about you. Or claims to going through this stuff you don't know about. This still as he didn't even listen to you when you asked him to stay put. I don't say I like it. But to me it's pretty clear why Emilia makes her decision. We can see how it actually happens... but remember that Emilia makes this decision based on what she knows.. and she doesn't know about him dying over and over. WE know why. Emilia don't know why. We know there is a hand that wanna squeeze his heart as he tries to talk about his experience with reviving. Emilia only see this guy who stops talking only to changing subject or not saying anything at all. Also the whole point of trauma, depression, desperation etc. is that it messes with your character. As a writer myself I have written a novel about a guy who dies, and comes back. he is at first confident, a bit naive. after the death he can't even get his ass out of the door... why you ask? Because he got a changed perspective. The way he look at things isn't as he looked at it before. In gets a feeling of anxiety and uncertainty. Subaru is no difference. The difference between my character and Subaru is that Subaru tries to hide it with his weird overpositive and overenergetic ways of taking on everything. And when he reaches the corner and can't run? he has only one way out and that is forward.. and in the way is our beloved Emilia-tan. A facade can only take you so far. And that I can tell from my own experience. Fluffmaestro said: So let's take this like we are not viewers but in Emilia's head. 1. you have met this guy for just about a month or two. 2.

The point of the writing is that its supposed to rile you up, and make you emotional, but my problem is that people don't want to give Subaru even slightly any leeway and just claim he's an entitled bitch, regardless of what we, the viewers, have watched him go through. People keep acting like they're in Emilia's shoes without even trying to understand Subaru's plight in this entire story. Its aggravating. I just don't think this genre is for me, it gets me too emotional and I end up lashing out at nearly everyone on this forum. |

Paraphrased: "I've done so much for you because [redacted], you owe me a huge debt!" - Subaru. If that's not the very definition of entitlement, nothing is. Yes, he is entitled to love her. No, he is not entitled to her letting him be in her life or her political affairs, regardless of what he's done for her. |
4kicks said: Paraphrased: "I've done so much for you because [redacted], you owe me a huge debt!" - Subaru. If that's not the very definition of entitlement, nothing is. You seem to keep forgetting what he went through, and continue to only look at this through the eyes of Emilia. Keep in mind the time loops. She owes him a huge debt, but because she doesn't know of these things he did for her because of the time loops I can see why you may think its entitlement. |

LaxusAK said: Does 1+1=2? Are you someone who only thinks surface level when interpreting fiction? Asking whether or not 1+1=2 is a terrible analogy for the point that you're actually trying to make. If I had answered no, then what that would actually mean, and what most people would understand that to mean, is that I don't believe in logic. Nobody but you would interpret that as asking whether or not I take everything at face value. |

Even so, that hardly dismisses his conduct this episode. Does all that he went through mean that he should be allowed to make all that fuss? Because it didn't accomplish anything, and if anything, was a headache for everybody involved. And yes you could argue that he's earned the right to make a headache for everybody (which is setting aside the fact that he made things harder for himself)... but where the fuck did it get him in the end? Even if somebody owes you a massive, massive favor, that was hardly an appropriate way to cash it in. |
| Well this was the perfect example to show the beautiful characterization in this story. First off, yes you’re supposed to think "Subaru you deserved this tho". Yes you can disagree with his actions and if you see faulty in his behavior you and to call him out on that then please do so. This is all intentional by the author and he wants you to think freely. This is no story where you have to support the protagonist’s decisions and behavior no matter what. No the author is conscious that Subaru is faulty from head to toe. He knows that and he punishes Subaru by taking the most important thing of this world from him. Best if Subaru just stick with rem though she's clearly the one who loves him and will give anything to him,Too bad rem dies in arc 3 :D |

Subaru acted like a total fucking spazz in front of the entire royal court, especially after Emilia was already getting humiliated by just about everyone else, but I still feel like there should be some empathy left for Subaru despite his idiocy. I, too found Subaru to be an annoying arrogant cunt, but my empathy is too strong not to forgive him. Y'all niggas cold as hell. |

aboynameddeath said: I can't believe there's people hating on Emilia cause of the latest episode. If anything I'm glad that she finally shows some kind of character development beyond generic nice girl & love interest. Subaru just lied straight to her face and publicly humiliated her in front of the most important people in the kingdom because of his white knight complex; was she just supposed to let that slide? What part of "You should have a greater debt to me than you could ever repay" doesn't scream possessiveness? This has nothing to do with selfless love and he should stop pretending that it is. To be fair what he said to Emilia, he probably didn't mean it. It is due to the frustration of not being able to explain what has been happening to him to anyone else. He simply cracked because of the mental stress of dying over over again to make things right. However, still his behavior at the court was inexcusable lol. He kinda put the bad situation on himself. I actually thought things were progressing nicely with him and emilia. I'm not sure why he had to go do more and put himself out there like that. |

Because he got a changed perspective. The way he look at things isn't as he looked at it before. In gets a feeling of anxiety and uncertainty. Subaru is no difference. The difference between my character and Subaru is that Subaru tries to hide it with his weird overpositive and overenergetic ways of taking on everything. And when he reaches the corner and can't run? he has only one way out and that is forward.. and in the way is our beloved Emilia-tan. A facade can only take you so far. And that I can tell from my own experience. Yeah, I totally agree with you here. The point of the writing is that its supposed to rile you up, and make you emotional, but my problem is that people don't want to give Subaru even slightly any leeway and just claim he's an entitled bitch, regardless of what we, the viewers, have watched him go through. People keep acting like they're in Emilia's shoes without even trying to understand Subaru's plight in this entire story. Its aggravating. I just don't think this genre is for me, it gets me too emotional and I end up lashing out at nearly everyone on this forum. |

He was pulled into this world against his will- It was accordingly to his will. He wanted it. He was depressed. There's a possibility that he being brought there was only possible, due to him wanting it. inb4 pokemon creepypasta coma theory. |
Fai said: i'm just telling people to be prepared esp someone like you who already seem to have major problems with how the show is heading. It is a drama and it will be very dramatic. Kiznaiver who?.... I don't want to be scrolling through walls of text of people complaining the same shit over over again week to week.TeamDalaiLana said: The overreactions.... I can see people having a huge fit when the show ends. Because it will NOT be your typical HAPPY ending show. I honestly hope people are prepared for the absolute depressing nature of what's to come. For me I think that's just beautiful. I love sadness and depression so it's perfect. There's nothing wrong with depressing or painful as long as it is well written and not badly produced Akame Ga Kill level of edge for sake of edge. Pretty much nobody expects this to be a happy show. TeamDalaiLana said: ummm no? That would be a very cliche protag. A protagonist is simply the lead character. It could be a villain, an idiot, anyone. He should not be despicable inconsistent stalker. Especially not in the show which is entirely based around viewers caring about the protagonist succeeding. Most sad shows still have a sense of euphoria like it's sad on a surface level. It's more of a relief. But not this show. Just saying. There's a "what if" chapter when you buy the BD for a reason. Let's just say it's steins gate but without the super cliche shounen "I have the power to save everyone" ending. It will be sour and bitter and frustrating and I will love it. |
