Who knows? When Tappei is updating, it's usually a chapter every few days.

Anyhow, there seems to be a character named "Tia" that everyone likes from the new Rem IF novel, going by twitter comments. Some people apparently wanted Rem and Subaru to adopt her.

Summaryanon is in the intermission between Arcs 4 and 5.
There's 9 chapters but he's skipping 2 (that aren't plot or main-cast relevant).

They only have two kids who are still very small even after like 9 years or so of marriage. Clearly baby-making wasn't the first thing coming to their mind after they got married. So stop saying like they are that horny.

Oni are the least fertile race, and Rigel was conceived in their first year together. Meaning Subaru got her pregnant when she was 17-18. The IF stories mention that this did indeed happen because they were just that horny.
>>
>>157562087
But they literally accidentally had Rigel within the first year even with the terrible fecundity of Oni. Then they held off so Rigel could be old enough to take care of his younger siblings before flipping into full baby making mode. Rem wants a soccer team, she might as well be trying to land on the moon in Oni terms.

>>
>>157562867
Rem and Ram were the only Oni born to an entire village in at least a decade or so. I'm pretty sure the Natsuki Rem chapters mention they were having a lot of sex, and that's how Rigel happened.

The context is that he never called for help in the alleyway, so he never got Reinhard to help him out there. Everything else stems from that.

Not really a psychopath, just a villain. You need to read the chapter to get proper context how he ended up like that though, RbD has a weird way of corrupting people.

Is it implied Honda will slowly go crazy from RbD in the future?

That's the only difference, though it leads into him dying 88 times only for fucking Reinhardt to show up out of nowhere and accidentally solve the loop like it's nothing.
He definitely has the makings for a petty reprehensible lunatic creep but he needs to be broken a little before it sets in

>>157563968
Subaru has psychopath potential, but Subaru's mostly just an obnoxious jackass deep down. With the right conditions, he could have been a decent Bishop. And by decent, I mean a total shithead.

Why are one of the most horrible people in this series so entertaining? Why do they have such good chemistry with the MC?
>>
>>157564344
Because Subaru and the Witches are from the same template, inherently villainous people get along well with other inherently villanous people. Maybe except for Carmilla, all Subaru wanted to do was bash her face in because she tried to copy his beloved blue haired waifu.
>>
>>157564389
I dunno if you can call them inherently villanous anon. Since all Minverva wanted to do was heal people, Echidna just wanted to experiment, Typhon wanted to serve justice on sinners, Dahene wanted to end world hunger, Sekhmet wanted to find a place where she be lazy all day and Carmilla just wanted to be treated like a normal girl. Its just their methods towards that goal are nonsensical.
>>
>>157564344
The same reason why he works so well with Elsa in the ayamatsu
>>
>>157564501
Pretty sure a number of those was committing genocide at some point in their lives so

Well it wasn't like they meant it. It was something that happened, like a little oopsie.
>>
>>157563194
Holy shit this is cute
>>
>>157563968
The only thing stopping Subaru from being a psychopath is that he's never gotten the chance to kill anybody.
First time he does, he'll call off the whole "spiral into madness" thing and just dive straight in.
>>
>>157564896
So you're assuming once Ley turns into flesh paste Subaru will go down the villain route? I can see it.
>>
>>157564896
Subaru would have killed one (1) whole clown if mr massive pussy hadn't punched his shit in
>>
>>157564024
Multiple uses of any Authority tend to do that, yes.
>>
>>157564501
Minerva killed large numbers of people purely out of self-satisfaction. Echidna was well intentioned. The road to he'll is paved with good intentions, the road to heaven is paved with good works. Typhon wanted to kill people so she could feel like she was above them. Daphne was just as eager to end overpopulation.

Carnilla and Sekhmet I'll give you though.
>>
>>157564896
Pretty sure Subaru has killed two archbishops already.

Suubs orchestrated both deaths, but commuted neither.
Pete commuted suicide and Reinhard killed Regulus.

It's actually they didn't actually have sex, and othewise Roswaal is not interested in having a demi off-spring so he most likely used contraceptives with her

Re:zero was shit, the plot was constantly getting reset rehasing a decent amount of episodes, even though it matters to the story for Subaru to learn that way it's not enjoyable when episodes merge into one. The element he was unable to tell anyone made interactions with others made it one sided as fuck, you don't really feel like Emilia is a friend of subarus, just someone that wants to help. It takes so long to finally get to the real villian, that at least was an improvement. Subaru is also such a beta, scared fuck having him being the only real main character most of the time made it unenjoyable, and characters like Rem and Emilia are just to oh so perfect and nice.

Simple.

Because what Roswaal wants isn't what Subaru wants. The Gospel shows its holder that prime path to his or her desires. Meaning anything deviating from that will make achieving Roswaal's goals unlikely or not in the way he wants.

Except Roswaal's gospel could've lived longer if it didn't go against Subaru, so it clearly wasn't the optimal path. Roswaal himself says that making Emilia ruler is in line with his plans, so theoretically the gospel should've told him to at least support Subaru up until Emilia wins the throne.
>>
>>157571817
>>157572164
Also Roswaal just assumes the Gospel is guiding him towards his goals, but the true agenda of such books is still undisclosed

[Emilia: The reason Rem-san came to reeally love you. I’m sure it’s because she got to see Subaru’s good side up close, a lot. You’re kind of like a disease that sometimes becomes really incredible, and does some reeally incredible things]

[Subaru: A disease? I… can’t actually deny that]

Subaru scratched his cheek and pouted, showing his dissatisfaction. Emilia, unaffected, held her stern expression as if to say “it’s true you know”, then, closing her eyes

[Emilia: I won’t fall for you that easily you know]

[Subaru: That makes the effort all the more worth it! One day, I will make Emilia-tan go all gooey and fall for me, wake Rem from her sleep, and settle this in a nice way. Aaaah, I’m smiling just thinking about it!]

Things like this are what makes me think the romance in this series is shit, which is a shame because it could have been fucking amazing if the author sticked with Rem romance and expanded it rather than come up with some dumbass love triangle and make everything complicated for no good reason.

Gospel does not account for RBD and Satella which is why it lost. And if what you say was true it would have done that but you don't know that nor do you have any basis for it. So safe to say that unilaterally supporting Subaru and Emilia is going to screw him over. Besides the Gospel isn't prefect with prediction abilities, but it's more than it's wrong when Subaru isn't fucking things up by making it harder to draw a path to the future. Pete understood how bad this was when Subaru appeared beofre despite not being written for to do so.

People should express their anger at the author instead. He could have settled the romance perfectly by making Rem the only love interest after Subaru realized how huge she was to him and killed himself for her. But no he overcomplicated it, made it drag on forever, and paved the way for endless waifuwar debates even though the love triangle is not even good to begin with. So instead of being more compelling and believable, the romance is now just silly and also much less enjoyable.

Emilia isn't actually 14 though. Her age is really meaningless here because it's not linear. So if Subaru fucks her nobody will think anything weird of it.

Doesn't work what way? He's 17 and her mental age 14 not her actual age. Very little of this factors into their ship which treated like normal teenage romance. Tappei and rest of fandom don't give fuck so your nitpicking and excuse don't mean anything thing.

>>157574697
Yes, but rarely. They don't act or talk down to her at all about things she doesn't know. They explain to her like you would to an adult who didn't know customs. That's why there no bad blood or annoyance on her part.

The law doesn't give a shit unless you have some mental issues (e.g. you're heavily retarded) or you are under the age of consent.

Emilia's not under the age of consent and does not have any type of mental illness, the law in our world would not be an issue.
Now if you consider their world, I'm sure they give even less of a fuck.

I'm considering it from Subaru's view. Subaru says he's not into lolis, while acknowledging Emilia as being mentally a loli. Therefore we can say that Subaru is the type of guy who would knowingly fuck physically mature 13 year olds.
>>
>>157575383
>But Subaru operates by our world's laws
Yes, and our world laws don't care. I just mentioned it, you retard. Our world cares only about how mature your body is and if you have some mental issue, Emilia doesn't have any of that.
> so it's intellectually dishonest of him to romantically love a girl he acknowledges as "mentally loli" especially when he says he's not into lolis.
So whenever it fits your narrative, Subaru is both lying and both telling the truth, huh?
Fine, then he clearly lied and he's into lolis, since he also jokes about how only hot guys can get away with being lolicons.
Or maybe he doesn't really consider Emilia a "loli" and he sees her as a 14 year old naive, innocent girl.
>>
>>157574880
Subaru doesn't just recognize her as 14 as a mental age isn't a real age. He also recognizes her actual age. Even then he's only 3 years older if you instead on using mental age and looks just as old as him. He doesn't talk to her like he's older than her either. Basically he has no problem pursing her, but he just don't want to push into a romantic relationship until she completely conformable with it rather than her being undecided but leaning towards yes.
>>
>>157575499
That's him being jealous that hot guys can do what they want, since he views being a lolicon as bad. Also he monologues about not being interested in lolis so there's that.

The fact that Subaru would have fucked Emilia if she were a bit more mature really leaves a sour taste in my mouth.

Riiiiiiight... That's exactly why this author wrote those scenes.
>The author is not confident enough in his writing so he comes up with shit like "he loves them both! please keep reading!" instead of making a clear point
Or maybe, it's a case of the character really loving both.
Or maybe he's emotionally immature.
Or maybe he loves one of them but lies to himself that he loves both.
Or maybe he really loves no one and he lies to himself that he is capable of love.
Etc.

It's clear to me at this point that Re:Zero fans are retarded.
>>
>>157575789
the only reason Subaru didn't fuck Emilia yet is because the author is too afraid to piss off the Remfags since "he loves them both equally" so he must treat them equally. Emilia did get a kiss already, she can't get another one until Rem gets one. That whole bs about Emilia not knowing what sex is and "kisses make babies" is just an excuse to drag out the romance
>>
>>157575705
I'm still holding out for the possibility that Subaru's been witched into loving Emilia so hard.

And he did choose which was both of them. Doesn't mean polygamy ending will happen, but that his stance. It wouldn't be weird for that ending to occur either since a number of LNs like Zero's Familiar have done it.

My point is that Subaru wanting to fuck Emilia first despite Rem being his heart's girl is very tasteless and cheapens the overall romance dramatically. That's bad writing.
>>
>>157575789
>first
I don't think Subaru gives a shit about order. Also, Subaru seems to be hesitant about actually making progress in the later Arcs, and that is something that he relates to Rem. Right now, I just think Subaru experiences an extreme level of cognitive dissonance, and doesn't actually want to analyze his own feelings too deeply.

His mind has been all twisted around into a fucking pretzel by everything, and so there are certain contradictions in his attitude. He likes how Emilia compliments him in this latest chapter, but he starts feeling uncomfortable with it in later Arcs. He's looking forward to making progress with her, then he's uneasy about it later.

Subaru probably memeboys because that's easier than untangling the complete mess that his thoughts and feelings are.
>>
>>157576088
Subaru doesn't think about who he wants to fuck first
>>
>>157576088
You're the only one that thinks about this, the character himself hasn't been considering this since arc fucking 1.
>>
>>157576128
But he already wants to fuck Emilia even though his heart's girl that is Rem still sleeping, doesn't he? That's what I meant by "first." Rem revealed to be Subaru's heart's girl is so unnecessary now because order clearly doesn't matter and Subaru will fuck anyone within his reach regardless of who he loves more.

>>157576268
Japanese has an odd way of not exactly having plurals in the same way we have here. Rem could either be "The girl in his heart" or "A girl in his heart". But yes. Subaru would fuck either of them. Maybe. Subaru often talks or thinks bigger than what he'd actually go through with.

If Emilia suddenly wanted to fuck him, he'd probably chicken out.

>That's also how they explain it to the literal children. Has anyone in this story talked down to a child?

...What in the world are talking about? People teach others do not do so as if they are talking with kids unless they are taking to literal kid. When Ram was teaching Subaru how to write was treating him like a kid? When Emilia was helping him read some books in the library before their departure to Sanctuary was sh treating him like a kid?

>I've actually seen Japanese people express annoyance with it. You can't just an entire fandom from just one venue.

I don't care what some Japanese feel about it, just majority and those who interact with Tappei do. Many of these people are to busy drawing fanarts of both pairings even as fans of either Emilia or Rem to care. It just further shows how stupid and unproductive the arguing about all this is. We can talk about it for years and wouldn't make either pairing likely to because you don't like the other one.

So why isn't he lusting after Betty and Petra? Hell Betty would willing fuck him at this point and she probably doesn't know much about romance either.

It's pretty obvious that Subaru doesn't put much weight into a intangible age he just came up with.

In this story, has anyone ever talked down to the children who are literally children? It's hard to distinguish if people treat a character as a child or not if they treat adults and children in a more or less similar manner in most circumstances.

The only times in this series that I recall people talking down to children was mostly when they deliberately wanted to annoy someone. Like Roswaal with Ram, or Subaru with Betty. The only exception I recall being when Emilia was treating Subaru like an idiot child.
>>157576617
And later Subaru is hesitant about actually developing a closer relationship with Emilia. I don't put too much weight on his every frivolous thought. But yes, he's still attracted to Emilia.

Except Subaru doesn't love Rem more. He never thinks about fucking Rem and Emilia in the first place. He's embarrassed about just kissing Emilia! Or even holding hands.

>He never thinks about fucking Rem and Emilia in the first place.
I'm pretty sure he's fantasized about that all before, though he's even fantasized about Ram visiting him to attend to some "evening business". Which he said out loud, in front of everyone.

>>157576408
That's nice in fanficton land, but Rem was going end up that way regardless since had planned out Arc 3 long ago. Plus there little to no fans that SubxEmi romance either. Most just like Rem without external factors which is Japanese Remfags draw SubxEmi ship too.
>>
>>157576942
Arc 2. That's the scene where he was trying to guess what Ram's real job was, since she was such an inferior maid to her sister, and that's what he settled on.

I think the sisters reacted with the same kind of disgusted bantz that they had been doing the whole time.

Only because of her immaturity and mental age, right? That's what makes the romance so distasteful and confusing. It's just hard to tell who Subaru's real love interest is because it seems that he just wants to fuck people left and right and often swings between being a husbando and being a legit asshole just in a split second.

the double romance past "from zero" was unnecessary. Subaru should have loved only one of the girls. Love only Emilia and don't give Rem hints after rejecting her, or love only Rem and save Emilia because Rem expects him to do that. Loving both is just bad writing and only so that both fanbases would keep reading and giving him money.

Who cares what you think, you pleb? Rem or Emilia won't wet your dick, fuck off.

>>157577204
Well, since she has been associated with his main heroine delusions from the start, I guess Emilia romance will either end up as a "lie" that became "real" or a "lie" that Subaru rejects for "true love" with Rem or just simple polygamy end. So I'm very interested in what the answer will be at the end
>>
>>157577267
The logic is actually worse than that.
The idea is not that he was mistaken but rather that he knew Rem was the better one but instead of picking his best creation he decided to use underhanded tactics to shove his shitty elf down the readers' throat in a willfully wrong narrative choice

Nah. Subaru is going to fuck up his memories even worse, leave the tower, and find himself in the past. 18 years, to be precise.

Then he's going to call himself Aldebaran, and that's why Arc 7 is going to have Aldebaran as a major focus.

Nips are actually speculating about Aldebaran in the Re:Zero thread right now, wondering if the tower has anything to do with why he's an amnesiac. Even people wondering if his power is a reduced form of RbD.

Of course, they've been having crack theories about Aldebaran being future Subaru since Al was introduced, and that was before they knew he was isekai'd. Apparently their mannerisms are just that similar.

I'm saying it's a possibility, so it's my headcanon, but if you consider that there's time fuckery involved (you don't even need to include Echidna's theories), characters like Puck, Flugel and Aldebaran could be Subaru in one form or another.

>The focus would still be on Subaru, like always.
>Why should he focus on other characters?
reading comprehension isn't your thing huh?
Right now Subaru focuses on saving Rem and the story makes it look like that he only does that because he loves her and as if he wouldn't do it if she was just a friend. It was the same deal with Emilia in arc 3.
>>
>>157576408
Would be true if the show was anime original. No Remfags were mad when the Web novel chapter was released cause they describe his inner thoughts.
>>
>>157579280
"What ifs" most literally. That's really what I meant. They're different roads for Subaru that drastically change the other character's situations.
>>157579295
No, it's clear my reading comprehension is faulty right now, because I see you repeating yourself on a matter that you still think you have a leg to stand on, maybe I'm just wrong.
>Right now Subaru focuses on saving Rem and the story makes it look like that he only does that because he loves her
No, he's being so obsessive about it because he loves her, so this...
Does not exclude this:
>and as if he wouldn't do it if she was just a friend.
While this:
>It was the same deal with Emilia in arc 3.
Is an important plot point because he wanted to give up.
>>
>>157578655
And yes he was spazzing out about a girl coming to his room. Let's not forget he could barely concentrate on his work when came to Emilia help him study in Arc 2. Dude is no Casanova or gigolo anon. Honestly, he's very innocent in this area himself.

It has no thematic relevance, it's just pandering to the fans. Both relationship will maintain until the very end and then one of them will die or rejected, most likely Rem since she has no main character plot armor and the author is a biased Emiliafag. There'll be no explanation on why Subaru is so obsessed with Emilia and no justification for why Emilia should win cause she doesn't.

This is fucking fiction you dumb fuck. The audience is supposed to relate to that shit and be able to understand why something is like it is. When most people prefer the Rem romance over the Emilia romance then it probably has some good reasons.
>>
>>157580823
It's not just this image, though, it's this illustrator in general. The way he draws some things just seems incredibly lazy. Look at the eyebrows for example. They are always thin lines (with the exception of Frederica). Even with stylisation in mind, there is no excuse for this, it's just lazy drawing. Then there's his incredibly lazy shading which takes away a lot of depth from the illustrations. He's using digital art so he should have even more of an easy time adding depth than traditional artists.
Mind you, I'm not trying to shit on him, I just think it falls flat considering my personal preferences. I'm a fan of somewhat realistic illustrations.
>>
>>157580971
>Maybe...

It's just that I can't completely put my finger on it, but at least I'm trying. Something about his illustrations just irk me and makes me think of them as "flat". I guess in the end it just comes down to personal taste.
>>
>>157581029
>This is fucking fiction you dumb fuck.
That doesn't mean you need to be spoonfed to this level. You're clearly told who they want to fuck and you then think of all that plot that has been thrown at you and try to understand why exactly that faggot MC picked that girl.
>The audience is supposed to relate
No, the audience doesn't have to relate to anything written there, you can read a story and be completely detached from it.
> and be able to understand why something is like it is.
I'm sorry, but we usually don't go into details like "The characters are talking Japanese." because you're too autistic to notice by yourself.

I meant that there's a guy writing this stuff. He wrote the Emilia romance AND the Rem romance. He's responsible for what the audience want and how they feel about certain plot points. Subaru doesn't exist and his feelings are not real, they are manufactured by a jap single man. Your logic about how "somehow people's feelings need to have some conscious motivation" doesn't make ANY sense here and is just a retarded excuse for why your waifu should win. How about you try to argue why one girl is better suited for the MC than the other like we're supposed to?

>What you're proving now is that you're too impatient and are judging the plot based on missing information that you'll be given later.
No what I've been saying is that the romance has been trash so far due to how annoying, unjustified, confusing, and boring it is. Not saying that it can't be improved so who knows, but hey my point is that it's pretty bad now and I'm concerned by it because I thought it could have been something amazing.

So the romance isn't all that great. Most of the relationships in the story are hard to understand and just leave you kind of confused. Why does Person A love Person B so much? Who the fuck knows.

But ignoring the romance for now, what parts of the story do you actually like?
>>
>>157581712
You can't fully criticize the writing either way because you can't read Japanese, and all you have to work with are fan translations. As for that longer play argument you brought up, whether that is good or bad depends on where and how it concludes, which we don't know yet.It could either be Tappei baiting the audience in to keep reading, like >>157581780 mentioned, or it could be something important that he has planned out well in advance.
>>
>>157581820
>"Tappei 4D chess"
I learned a long time ago that 4D chess doesn't exist, though sometimes authors and fans pretend it does. Expecting there to be any such chess game is setting yourself up for disappointment.
>>
>>157581575
>He's responsible for what the audience want and how they feel about certain plot points
He's not actually responsible for anything of the sorts. How the audience feels depends on them, not on him.
>Subaru doesn't exist and his feelings are not real, they are manufactured by a jap single man
But Subaru does follow some rules, maybe they're our same ones, meaning that "justifications" are aplenty if that's the case, even now.
>doesn't make ANY sense here and is just a retarded excuse for why your waifu should win.
If he picks Emilia, he loves her, so he picked her because of her looks and personality.
If he picks Rem, he loves her, so he picked her because of her looks and personality.
If he picks Petra, he loves her...
>How about you try to argue why one girl is better suited for the MC than the other like we're supposed to?
Because Subaru (Tappei chose it for him) is attracted to that girl because of her psychological and physical traits.
Do you also fall in love with what is deemed "the best" or is it that you have your own tastes, my dude?
>>157581632
>No what I've been saying is that the romance has been trash so far due to how annoying, unjustified, confusing, and boring it is.
"Love" is a rather simple matter, anon. We get attracted physically to someone else, then we drool over them and after that, we tend to finalize staying with these people based on personality.

You can't go more, "boring" and "confusing" than this. The "justification" is that the character sees the person as a proper mate. The "annoyance" surely stems from you wanting something that isn't written there, but that is indeed "unjustified".
>>157581712
>which is a strawman
Almost everyone here mentioned how Rem is a "better choice".
>which is utter rubbish
You first have to prove your "judgement of quality" has anything to do with objectivity, which you cannot do.

>>157581878
>You can't fully criticize the writing either way because you can't read Japanese, and all you have to work with are fan translations.
Until now I assumed that when people is commenting writing they meant narrative choices rather than grammar and lexical quality
>>
>>157581863
>what parts of the story do you actually like?
Everything else asides from the romance, like fantasy, psychological (again as long as it's not romance involved) aspects, etc.
>>
>>157582093
Prosaic quality fits under the umbrella term of "writing" as well. There's also the danger of things getting lost in translations, which happens to professional translators as well as hobbyists. So arguably, some of the finer nuances of the narrative get lost due to the language barrier.

>>157581863

>>
>>157582045
>We get attracted physically to someone else, then we drool over them and after that, we tend to finalize staying with these people based on personality.
Pretty sure it doesn't work that way in this series though, hence why it doesn't make sense and makes everything very unsatisfying and ambiguous.
>>
>>157582162
I feel like anime sequels would just slow down updates further
I get what you mean though
>>
>>157582240
Pretty sure it does, this wasn't finalized either, you idiot. He's not at the last stages.
What we prefer in our mates depends on us and it's not conscious.

If he picks any of them, he preferred to stay with them instead of the others, it's that easy and that's all the justification you should need.
But of course, if "your waifu" wasn't "chosen", Subaru AKA Tappei clearly has shit taste in romance.
>>
>>157581863
I love how the story structure doesn't give a fuck. Every arc feels different and is a ride in itself after Arc 2. That includes putting focus on side characters sometimes which leads to named chapters and an arclong battle royale.
And the speeches and other emotional climaxes.
>>
>>157582045
>He's not actually responsible for anything of the sorts. How the audience feels depends on them, not on him.
Are you serious? He even said in an interview that an characters popularity is a direct factor for how high the waves are. Rem got better scenes because she got so popular. He plans and writes the story and knows what the audience likes and what isn't that great about it. If he knows that Rem is popular and keeps feeding us Rem scenes which are so liked then how the fuck is he not responsible for people liking her so much?

>But Subaru does follow some rules, maybe they're our same ones, meaning that "justifications" are aplenty if that's the case, even now.
What rules does he follow? He fell for Rem for other reasons than he did for Emilia according to the story. There no rules, nothing gets explained properly.

>If he picks Emilia, he loves her, so he picked her because of her looks and personality.
>If he picks Rem, he loves her, so he picked her because of her looks and personality.
Again, this is fiction and Subaru is not real. He has no real tastes or whatever. He didn't fall for Rem for her looks and he didn't fall for Emilia for her personality.

>Because Subaru (Tappei chose it for him) is attracted to that girl because of her psychological and physical traits.
Do you also fall in love with what is deemed "the best" or is it that you have your own tastes, my dude?
Yeah, now you agree that Tappei is responsible for that mess? They are not real, Emilia will not be sad if she loses. rem will not be sad if she loses, the audience are the only people who will feel anything since they're attached to the characters.
>>
>>157582334

>>157582495
>Are you serious? He even said in an interview that an characters popularity is a direct factor for how high the waves are.

The Earth is flat, anon. Tappei said so.

>If he knows that Rem is popular and keeps feeding us Rem scenes which are so liked then how the fuck is he not responsible for people liking her so much?
Because even if he's writing Rem, that doesn't mean you ought to like Rem?
I'm not sure you get it, anon, but no one is responsible for what you feel, only yourself.
>What rules does he follow?
Real life rules.
>He fell for Rem for other reasons than he did for Emilia according to the story.
Yes, and?
>There no rules, nothing gets explained properly.
I guess you've only had one relationship until now and it's still standing.
>Again, this is fiction and Subaru is not real.
That doesn't matter, Tappei is rather real and he didn't say that Subaru is somehow not human and does not follow conventional human rules. From what I remember, he's the most average human being you can get, except the meme part of his.
>He has no real tastes or whatever.
He does, they're the ones Tappei wrote for him. Are you retarded, anon?
>He didn't fall for Rem for her looks and he didn't fall for Emilia for her personality.
This is your headcanon, both of those are important.
>Yeah, now you agree that Tappei is responsible for that mess?
No, you really are retarded, I'm sorry for having asked beforehand. I'm sorry for not having mentioned that Tappei wrote Subaru, just like Tappei forgot to mention he's writing in Japanese and that heterosexual relationships are between a man and a woman.

If Tappei wishes for them to be (and he should if he knew how someone being rejected feels), it will happen.

Oh right, I'm sorry, I really meant to say that Subaru is actually a representation of someone falling in love with representations of fictional beings like elves and onis and that Subaru as a representation, follows the rules of those representations as much as it is possible for him to do so, e.g. he can never be "alive".

You don't need to wait until it's done to judge its quality. That's why I said this here:
>Not saying that it can't be improved so who knows, but hey my point is that it's pretty bad now
The way the romance is processing already doesn't make any sense to begin with, so it sucks at the moment. Again it can be improved and become good later, but as of now it just sucks.
>it's that easy and that's all the justification you should need.
That's not the justification I'm talking about here. The justification I mean is the things that can get my attention and make me care about and enjoy the love triangle. But right now the romance is just dumb, silly, unnecessarily long and can develop in a much better way than it does now. And why does it matter if the romance is shorter and concluded faster? Wouldn't it be actually a good thing because the romance would be less tedious, repetitive and not drag on?
>if "your waifu" wasn't "chosen"
Anon I don't care if Emilia or Rem wins. As I said it, I just want the romance to become better than it is now. The author can do whatever he wants with it for all I care, but I just hope it'll be more enjoyable and believable.
>>
>>157582120
Personally, I tend to like a bit of mystery. Things to be introduced, explored to develop a greater understanding, and perhaps resolved. Not just in the plot, but in the characters and their interactions. Usually the plot and the characters are one and the same, anyways.

The rabbits were never an important obstacle in Arc 4. They were just an arbitrary timelimit to be disposed of once the real issues, Garfiel, Emilia, Roswaal, and Betty, were handled. Elsa and Meili aren't really important to Arc 4 either. They're just an external force which makes handling the internal issues, the ones that really matter, more pressing.

The worldbuilding can be nice, and it's interesting to learn more about the history of the world, but I like to see how interactions between the relevant characters will shape events. In the latest Arc, I'm not really expecting much from Shaula or Reid, but I'm really looking forward to Ram and Julius's development here.

How doesn't it make any sense? I've already told you how it does.
>That's not the justification I'm talking about here. The justification I mean is the things that can get my attention and make me care about and enjoy the love triangle.
So basically, your tastes dictate quality? Why are you talking to us about it as if it's fact then, retardo?

No, because that's not necessary.

Yeah anon, you're completely right! Subaru has totally a realistic love life with how he loves two girls for different reasons. That totally happens in real life all the time, right? We're not supposed to feel anything for the characters and debate on who should win even though they are purposely written in two different styles and are even "equal" for Subaru so we can choose a favorite, right? After all it isn't supposed to make any sense because in reality it also doesn't make any sense but the fact that it's fiction is irrelevant, right? People read fiction because they can't get enough of reality, especially since anime is the most realistic medium of all!

Anon we've discussed how Subaru's "I love both girls," "I will make you mine," "there is a girl who also seems to be my true love existing in my heart and I usually act like a husbando around her, but forget that, I will just act like an asshole now and crave sex with another girl" are retarded to death. How comes you still don't understand?

>So basically, your tastes dictate quality?
>People think the romance is bad.
>No personal preference is allowed here! You have to use something else to prove the romance is bad even though it is totally subjective.

>The way he is writing his story is not good. I think he should somehow improve it.
>What you want is the author to write a fanfiction for you specifically.
???
>>
>>157583220
>Yeah anon, you're completely right! Subaru has totally a realistic love life with how he loves two girls for different reasons.
Who ever told you that supposedly we have a set of tastes that don't change or are limited to only one type of person?
>That totally happens in real life all the time, right?
Yes, you actually do have people that have issues with love triangles, believe it or not, rare as they may be.
>We're not supposed to feel anything for the characters
You can, but it's not necessary.
>and debate on who should win
That you can do too, but it's rather pointless and will most likely lead to disappointment. One picks based on their tastes.
>even though they are purposely written in two different styles and are even "equal" for Subaru so we can choose a favorite, right?
I'm ok with you doing whatever you want, my dude. It's just that you're doing a lot of pointless shit too and you're shitting up the thread all the time with your waifuwars. If you want, you can continue them endlessly though.
>After all it isn't supposed to make any sense
But it does make sense.
>People read fiction because they can't get enough of reality
No, but somehow escapism does not mean that fiction does not copy reality a lot.
>especially since anime is the most realistic medium of all!
Lack of realism in certain subject =/= lack of realism everywhere.
Or are you saying that say, Ram wouldn't be angry if say, Subaru insults Rem harshly?
But how do you know that if that never really happened?
You assume it from how overprotective she is for her little sister and on how she usually answers and acts, which are in tone with reality, since personalities like these exist IRL.
>>

What is he saying?
>>
>>157583220
>In the latest Arc, I'm not really expecting much from Shaula or Reid, but I'm really looking forward to Ram and Julius's development here.
Sounds about right. Shit like the masbeasts and lore is fun as fuck, but at it's core it's a character driven series
>>
>>157583387
>are retarded to death
You've discussed it but this conclusion makes no sense. Try again this time with a proper argument.
>How comes you still don't understand?
1+1 = 3 can't be understood as anything besides it being drivel.
>People think the romance is bad.
Popularity =/= Quality
>even though it is totally subjective.
Now you seem to get it to an extent. You're correct that in our case, the "romance being bad" is subjective, but you don't get that the "romance existing in it's current state" is not.
>The way he is writing his story is not good. I think he should somehow improve it.
No, you mean "I believe the way he..." and continue from there, and accept that your opinion is irrelevant in the process.

Oh it's the guy with the priapistic boner for the 'girl in your heart/heart's girl/whatever the fuck' throwaway line so that explains it

Oh shit, I got baited.

What horseshit is this now? I can't relate to say Kaneki from Tokyo Ghoul and Touka is far from my favorite character but I can understand why he picked her.

Please force shitty excuses for waifu whining. The very fact Emilia exists as option that people actually alone shatters that notion. People aren't hivemind.
>>
>>157581712
Guys like you are complete cancer to any fanbase. Holy shit!
>>
>>157583832
>and be able to understand why something is like it is
>but I can understand why he picked her.
so everything went right, what's your problem?
>>
>>157583500
You quoted the wrong guy, but yeah. I do think lore is necessary to spice things up a bit, or to provide reference for events. We see that Witches and Bishops are crazy fuckers and that their powers seem to make that worse, but a lot of that is what helps make us feel uneasy about how Subaru could turn out.

Without his memories, I feel Subaru may have been reduced to an obstacle in the latest Arc, at least for the time being. Echidna's too much of a mystery to be a focus character, and Betty and Emilia don't have much personal motive to be in the tower.

However, Julius has been set up with a lot of internal and external conflict. He's been going through shit, and the one guy who remembered and was trying to be there for him was just taken away. He's probably going to be the main male character until Subaru recovers. Ram, still being intelligent and motivated, is likely going to take Subaru's place as the brains of the operation.
>>
>>157583832

Well, if he just picks a girl it is'nt really love.
Kaneki is a bad example too, since Touka is like the only girl he's even remotely been close with.
There was litterally no other option.

Rem left a pretty big emotional impact on the guy, and even fought and died for his love, wich is an admirable trait in a person.

But fuck this waifu discussion, when is Ram going to get the clown to become better?
>>
>>157583895
So if say, he picks Emilia like, right now, you would be unable to think of why he chose her despite knowing how she looks and her personality?
This is why I once said a few posts back that Re:Zero fans are retarded. If you answer that example of his that way but you stumble when it comes to Re:Zero, you're clearly arguing only to continue the waifuwar.
>>
>>157583989
>when is Ram going to get the clown to become better?
when she recovers her memories of her sister, confronts the clown, calls him out, and whips him real hard.
>>
>>157583989
>when is Ram going to get the clown to become better?
He kind of already had a few steps in the right direction, and then immediately took a step back for clown plots. Mostly he just hasn't been around. The one future vision involving him seemed like something had hit him with a friendship speech or something.
>>
>>157584038
>So if say, he picks Emilia like, right now, you would be unable to think of why he chose her despite knowing how she looks and her personality?
I would have no problem with it if he could explain why. I wouldn't even want an explanation if Emilia stayed the only love interest and I would be happy that it's finally over.
>>
>>157560280
This new meme is perfect for cute girls
>>
>>157584133
That will be interesting to see. After all, she pretty much shows little reaction to shit he does to others, close as they may be to her, but if she remembers her sister, will she hate him again?
>>
>>157584038
I would ask the author about why he made Rem a love interest if he didn't plan to give her a chance anyway. Why he thinks that Emilia deserves it more than Rem and why he wrote the story in a way where one of them had to lose.
>>
>>157584242
She didn't hate him before except for fairly early on. She might have something to say about Rem being 'sacrificed' for his plots again, which she gave him shit for previously, but its also entirely possible he didn't know anything like that would happen.
>>
>>157584242
I doubt she'd hate him, but I hope she'd at least get really fucking pissed at him if he had sacrificed Rem. Otherwise she'd be a terrible sister.

But really, what could she even do to Roswaal at this point? Tell him she's very disappointed? Scold him a bit?
>>
>>157584454
Burn his Gosp--

Refuse to cook him din--

Not clean his room prop--

I got nothing.
>>
>>157584454
>I doubt she'd hate him
I actually believe she could, despite you guys talking this way. While she hated him for burning down her village and killing her parents but got over it, at first she wanted to protect Rem.

If her memories come back, and say, there's a way for them to know he'd do this anyway and sacrifice Rem, I'm sure she wouldn't be silent, so he would punish him in some way or another, quite harshly, I'd say. Imagine foiling his plans with Echidna, or outright killing him or the Witch herself, you never know.
>>
>>157581780
Commentary that dates back to WN arc 2 states that Rem during the outline of the whole story plot became something extremely different to what he originally envisioned when he started thinking about the story.

Also we know the original story was meant to be 10 arcs and that an ulterior arc was added because of those changes between drafts.
Many assumed that the added arc was the current Arc 6, under the logic that Subaru falling ro Rem was a last-minute addition to "please the Remfags", but then supposedly he tried to fix that change putting Rem out of the story with the coma to place Emilia on the forefront again and the tower ark to wake er hup should have been his way to put everything on track.

Turns out the added arc was Arc 2 to establish better the character motivations and dynamics.

So shit like the confession and the coma were stuff that Tappei already intended to happen in the plot outline instead of dancing around the Remfags in itinere
>>
>>157584379
>but its also entirely possible he didn't know anything like that would happen.
I will just stick to my crackpot theory:
>Roswaal encouraged Rem to go with Subaru's group to the capital on behalf of Ram in arc 3.
>told Rem not to stop Subaru from getting to castle and stirring shit up.
>let Rem stay with Subaru and take care of him so that he would be more emotionally attached to her.
>erased Rem when Subaru's feelings for her were at an all time high so they would be directed to Emilia instead.
>Subaru would become Roswaal 2.0 (as in being insanely devoted to Emilia) and Roswaal would use him to fulfill his goals in arc 4 and later on.
>>
>>157584632
how do you know that arc 2 was the added arc and not arc 6?

She loves Roswaal even knowing that he thinks she and her sister are disposable. She'd probably be angry at him, but would she stop loving him?

I guess that all depends on just how real her extreme devotion is, but she seems to have a ridiculously high tolerance level for his bullshit. We may as well speculate about her hopping on Julius's rainbow sword instead.
>>157584750
Arc 2 was added to develop character relationships, but I don't think it's the Arc that was said to have been added in the interview. I believe Tappei said something about the story growing too big after Arc 3, that he needed to add another Arc.
>>
>>157584883
>She loves Roswaal even knowing that he thinks she and her sister are disposable.
Does she know that she thinks of her as disposable? Do you think she'd let her die or let her be in danger if she knew?
>but she seems to have a ridiculously high tolerance level for his bullshit.
You're saying she has no limit. But don't forget that the way she acts now is also because of her not knowing Rem.
>>
>>157585008
It's all in the backstory novel and arc 4
>>
>>157584883
The way the Rem romance was handled makes it look like the author was too concerned about losing too many readers so he came up with the "loves them both" plot to bait Remfags into keep reading the story, then put Rem into a long coma right after the confession to develop Emilia romance in hope that the Remfags would jump ships. I mean he said in an Q&A that Rem got a bigger role than intended and considering that Tappei is an Emiliafag while Rem is the audience's fav makes that theory plausible.
>>
>>157584621
>While she hated him for burning down her village and killing her parents but got over it
She didn't get over it since he did literally neither of these things.
>>
>>157585156
The issue remains if she would sacrifice Rem, dude. I know she let Roswaal stab his arm through her heart.

Does the backstory say she would be "pleased" or wouldn't punch him through the heart if he does anything to Rem?
>>
>>157585186
Then what was all that talk about revenge on him and all those mentions of the burning village?
>>
>>157585206
She tried to fuck him on the spot when she assessed he was sincere in saying he wouldn't hesitate in killing her and her sister if his plan requires it
>>
Also, please spoonfeed me on this backstory, is it complete and where can I read it?
>>
>>157585008
>Does she know that she thinks of her as disposable?
Yes. He told her that straight to her face. Twice, because she asked him to say it again.
>Do you think she'd let her die or let her be in danger if she knew?
I think Ram would try to do something if she knew Rem was being sent to her death, but she's still too lenient about the whole matter.
>You're saying she has no limit.
No. I'm saying she acts like she has no limit. She believes in this bizarre kind of unconditional absolute devotion. She might have a limit, but she seems to think otherwise.
>>157585257
She kissed him. She didn't start sucking his cock. Please don't exaggerate.
>>
>>157585257
I don't trust the guy who initially gave that information
>>
>>157585181
>I mean he said in an Q&A that Rem got a bigger role than intended and considering that Tappei is an Emiliafag while Rem is the audience's fav makes that theory plausible.
He actually said it in a commentary that dates back to WN arc 2, that is long before Rem became the fan favorite
>>
>>157585181
>I mean he said in an Q&A that Rem got a bigger role than intended
He said something similar about Otto and pretty much promoted Wilhelm from carriage driver for no real reason, it's just the story naturally evolving from the draft
>>
>>157585181
>I mean he said in an Q&A that Rem got a bigger role than intended and considering that Tappei is an Emiliafag while Rem is the audience's fav makes that theory plausible.
Her role expanded in preplanning. So did Subaru's. If you want a character that had a lot of stuff added for them while the story was running you would look at Wilhelm.

>Does she know that she thinks of her as disposable? Do you think she'd let her die or let her be in danger if she knew?
She does know. She's fine with dying for his plots, she's not fine with Rem dying for his plots. Like Subaru or Rem she wouldn't want to choose between them and would struggle to fit both in. Roswaal couldn't order her to kill Rem or let Rem die or anything like that, its one of the few things she'd fight him wholeheartedly on.
>>
>>157585296
>She kissed him. She didn't start sucking his cock. Please don't exaggerate.
she tried but he rebuffed her

It's not complete. Remonwater is still translating. He should be on the final chapters by now.
>>157585304
I could give you the Japanese text if you like. I believe I actually posted it in the thread. I do like to leave out details, but that happened.
>>
>>157584632
The author is taking the polygamy route seriously but still failling to make it work. He should haven't even mentioned it in the first place so it wouldn't introduce all the "I love you just as much as her" shit. Hate to say this but the anime actually does the romance even better than the author himself.
>Subaru loves Rem but is too shy to confess to her.
>Rem dies without knowing Subaru actually loves her (which makes it even more tragic).
>Subaru realizes his love for her and kills himself for her.
>Being private about his love for her (no more stupid comparison between his feelings for Rem and for Emilia. No more "equally" shit).
Here's hoping anime Subaru would also stop saying dumb shit like "I want to fuck Emilia" and again "I love both girls equally."
>>
>>157585361
Give me a link though.
>>
>>157585236
He said he didn't burn the village. Her revenge on him stems from him fucking her and Rem over to press them into his service. I've seen nothing that indicates he even purposefully let her horn get severed or anything like that since his only comment on it was just not arriving in time. With his book its possible he did it on purpose, but I don't think he's ever mentioned doing so so we really don't know.
>>
>>157585377
>Subaru loves Rem but is too shy to confess to her.
I think that's just you reading too much into it, they knew they couldn't do the interludes so keeping the Rem romance would have just screwed them over even more
>>
>>157585411
But they clearly talk about the soul of the dead and that loving him would shit on those people that died.

If he's unrelated to their deaths, why would that be mentioned? I don't see this being about the service.
>>
>>157584750
There was a recent Q&A iirc in which he stated he originally intended the events of Arc 3 to be right after Arc 1 but it felt too rushed so he added Arc 2 to flesh out interactions

Then arc 6 with the witches backstories, reid and now the amniesa has too much plot relevant shit
>>
>>157585181
the anime and the LN are written differently than the WN in regards to the Rem romance so that also makes it look like Tappei was too pussy about losing readers back then.

It's really annoying.
>>
>>157585473
>they couldn't do the interludes
Why? Instead of "Subaru trying to bring up the polygamy subject to Emilia," wouldn't it just be "Subaru trying to bring up something he's been hiding to Emilia"? I'm not saying that Subaru wouldn't love both Rem and Emilia in the anime, it's just that it could avoid the second wife, "I love you just as much" shit, etc. as Subaru becomes more reserved and private. That way it wouldn't cheapen any romance, especially Rem's.
>>
>>157585383
The translated chapters are here.

https://lemonwater123.wordpress.com/category/extra-novels/
>>157585615
The LN still has the full original confession scene. It still has Subaru telling Emilia that Rem is just as dear to him as she is. Subaru's just more of a chickenshit about telling others he loves Rem, but it'd be a retcon if he didn't love her.
>>
>>157585665
>it's just that it could avoid the second wife, "I love you just as much" shit, etc. as Subaru becomes more reserved and private
One, Rem brought that up, it reflects on her character more than Subaru's and fits with her complexes.

Two, Subaru has a particular way of being that is important to the story. Namely, he is a greedy, greedy fuck. The reason the polygamy thing is a thing is because Subaru clings to everything and doesn't want to give anything up. Ultimately this might be resolved somehow, but we're not sure what the author's answer is.
>>
>>157585665
>Why?
Because they were already rushing through the volumes. It didn't look like they'd have enough time. They would have needed a full episode more for that. They could have gone full troll and ended it with "Who's Rem" but they pussied out, maybe for the best.
So they had to make a conclusive ending. Besides someone on staff being an Emiliafag, I'm not sure anymore, including polygamy proposal would have left a big thread hanging which is why I would imagine they just cut it.
>>
>>157585843
The second season can start with "Who's Rem" though. It's a good starting point for THE SUFFERING.
>>
>>157585801
>he is a greedy, greedy fuck.
Oh okay. Sounds like the WN doesn't want me to take Subaru romance seriously then. Don't mean it as a bad thing though because it surely sounds intentional.
>>
>>157585747
I know that the scene is still in the LN but everything after that is very misleading for no good reasons. It's like they don't want to let people know that Subaru has feelings for Rem but also can't remove that plot point because it was in the WN and the previous LN.
>>
The whole triangle was foreshadowed with the blue oni red oni fable and people here still think was to entice the remfags
>>
>>157585939
Like, are you not supposed to take him saving everyone seriously? Because that's the same thing. He's greedy, he won't lose anyone, he won't give up on anyone. He'll turn things intended as a joke or for dubious reasons into something serious and real. He'll suffer for his greed because its difficult, possibly even impossible, but he's resolved to do it.
>>
>>157586001
it was foreshadowed in the LN, not in the WN though
>>
>>157585939
I think you're supposed to take it seriously that he cares about these girls and wants to be with them. However, he's also kind of a mess who doesn't like to face uncomfortable thoughts or choices unless he's forced to. So yes. The romance is intentionally clumsy and hard to take seriously, but his affection is genuine.
>>157585983
It's probably being written to fit the anime better. Tappei wants his shit animated.
>>157586069
Oh, it was plenty foreshadowed in the WN. Just not in the exact same way.
