Rika > Phil (1st half) >> Nagato > Okabe > Homura >>> Shintaro >>> Phil (2nd half)

Nagato because I don't think humanly possible to comprehend what she went through.

Suffering in silence the whole time, all with the knowledge that someday she will break.

>>145310933
Rika, cause each time she got killed in gruesome ways.

Rimanah, because he will never escape it.

>>145310933
Subaru.

>>145313878
I'd switch Homura with Okabe, put Subaru between them and done, but basically, this.

>>145310933
Is that guy suppose to be Bill Murray?

>>145315314
Homura goes through about a month of time travel, while I'm pretty sure Okabe goes through much more than that.

>>145310933

Okabe arguably if you take into account the other routes (especially the Suzuha end)

That being said, it's partially because I dislike Madoka Magica due to shit character development and Subaru for being a retard MC

Well, most of Rika's loops ended with her being brutally dismembered, so I'll give it to her.

>>145310933
Before I read Hako to Zero no Maria, it was obviously Rika. Anyone not saying Rika is a fucktard that didn't read the VNs or watched the anime.

But after Zero no Maria, it's obviously Kazuki Hoshino. Nigga went through some shit.

>>145315481
What? Homura went through that month 100 times. That's roughly 8 years of looping.

>>145315663
This. I'd also suggest Touma for 3rd place.

>>145315663

>turning into a bumbling tard that can only hit a wall

Dude was hardcore.

>>145315801
Touma went through some shit too, but the "aftereffects" are way too mild. It's like he just had a bad summer vacation.

>>145310933
Rika>Nagato>Homura>Phil(1st Half)>Okabe>>>Shintaro>>>Phil (2nd Half)

Phil died many more times than Okabe, and although Okabe realized how futile things were, he actually found a way out proactively rather than finding it after hundreds of years of trial and error. Homura's wasn't long, but each two weeks was tragic, with Rika being a far more hellish version of Homura. Yuki literally broke from the Endless Eight, but at least she didn't seem to die (only death by absolute boredom).

>>145316164
The way I see it is that at least Homura has something to center her efforts on, and it's largely a self-inflicted fate. Phil doesn't have the luxury of such a target for his efforts, and he doesn't know why the fuck it's happening to him to begin with.

The Endless Eight broke all of us, but Yuki also knew what she was doing the entire time. Doesn't make slowly breaking down into utter insanity from sheer boredom any less suffering filled, but it's at least something she can understand.

>>145316164

Who's Phil? What's his show?

He only does two loops (plus parallel ones, but hey), but he makes up in quality. Homura doesn't even begin to understand what true suffering is.

Was Rika's suffering really that bad? She doesn't have any memories of how she dies for most of the loops unless it's prolonged torture which didn't seem to occur too often in most of the chapters.

I'd say that Nagato's suffering would be worse considering that she suffered for almost 600, which is six times longer what Rika went through. It was also much more monotonous since it was essentially the same exact two weeks every single loop with just some minor variations. Rika seemed to have much more than two weeks in each of the loops and she also had Mion's club activities to look forward to.

>>145317871
Rika's "soul" went through a thousand years of loops, creating Bernkastel because of the mindbreaks.

>>145315931
>Some shit
Going by time spent and what was shown at some of these events, Touma had suffered than almost everyone within OP's image combined. He just gotten over it through a combination of already being batshit insane, inhumane willpower and the ability to over-write his memories.

Time has been looping for me for the past 7 years.

not a real loli

>>145317659
Hasn't he died like hundreds of times?

>>145318683
He has. But despite all he's been through, he remains a useless, spoiled brat who can't get anything done, even in the face of extinction. It's basically a time travel/looping character who stays the same as he was when he started: one dumb motherfucker who never amounts to anything.

>>145318989
But time looping works differently in MubRub. Pretty much every other character in this thread keeps their memories upon successive loops, but Takeru loses most of his, and it's only when all the alternate Takerus converge in Alternative does he begin to get all the memories of the parallel timelines. Hell he never remembers what happens post-ALTV.

And given that he's just a cog in a war machine that's far, far bigger than him, the things he accomplishes with Yuuko and A01 (XM3, Ouko, the 00 Unit, 12/5, 21st) are really quite extraordinary

>>145319397
The only thing he "accomplishes" is remembering prior events so that Yuuko can fix everything for him.

I don't consider dicking a tentacle rape victim and being good at video games an "accomplishment".

>>145315896
The fucker killed every person in the city so he gets reminded of what he needs to do the moment he comes back. He's fucking crazy and I love it.

>>145310933
who is far right guy from?

>>145320242
im stupid, I know who it is now

>>145319616
I dunno, I think fucking the first ever living robot is a pretty nice accomplishment.

Really though, Takeru plays a pretty vital role in helping to save the world. Even if a lot of it is just because of his situation and not his personality, they never would have gotten that far without him.

Yuki's actual loop isn't so bad, it's more just the sheer fucking length.

>>145317871
Was it ever mentioned that Nagato was bored due to the length? I mean it's easy to infer that she was bored as fuck but I dont remember it being implied that she broke due to it.

>>145320503
It broke her hard enough that she literally remade the entire world.

the MC has a loop that as bad, or even worse than Rika's while lasting like 40 times longer than Nagato's.

>>145320606
I don't remember Yuki every saying that endless eight was where her "errors" appeared from. I can see how people think that though.

It's already debunked, there would be too many paradoxes for it to be possible. Traveling forward in time is possible though, but what's the point?

In fact time travel should be considered to be fantasy, not science fiction.

>>145320729
Endless Eight caused an accumulation of error data that directly resulted in the events of Disappearance. I think Yuki says it herself in the movie when she's syncing up, actually.

I just check. Kazuki loops 27,756th time 3 days each, while Nageto loops 15,498th time 14 days each. So Nagato loops about twice longer, and Kazuki does't remember most of loops, only Maria does.

>>145321213
I guess every single sci-fi work with FTL travel is also fantasy.
Or working wormholes.
Or anything that we don't have any idea how to work right now.

Yuki if we're going by true suffering since it's billions of loops with fucking nothing happening. At least Okabe, Rika, and Homu had the power and hope in that they could change the outcome.

Takeru couldn't even do what he did without Yuuya saving his ass from getting blown up over orbit.

Yes he's instrumental, but like that other Anon said he's a very small part of a big series of cogs. MabuRabu is a story of heroes, not of your average dense MC who saves the world by himself.
