Is Subaru a well-written character?

Fuck no. He is one of the most inconsistent and badly written character from this decade. It looks like the writer had like 4 different Subarus in mind, but couldn't stick to just one, so he has him flip-flop between many different personalities. And aside from that, he is ugly, sounds annoying and is so unlikeable that it is impossible to care about him.

yeah, hes a great character. not initlially likeable, but he has a very satisfying character arc, and even better from arc 4 onwards.

Hes just a little to retarded/impulsive for my tastes. I feel like he makes some questionable and avoidable decisions that get him killed and then he goes and does it again

>he's not handsome or likable and I can't self insert as him so he is bad main character duur.

Subaru is the epitome of a man who bullshits his way through his adventures with false bravado. His "personalities" are episodes of this facade breaking under the pressure of losing over and over giving way to the pessimist that he is deep down.
He knows he has no real ability besides being able to pretend to be charismatic and talking his way out of things. That's why he irrationally hates Julius. It's why when he can't get anyone to help him past the whale, he brakes down completely.

The only time he was a good character is in that "what if" where he goes insane from dying over and over and has a manic fixation over Emilia.

I really hate his obsession with Emilia. At some point it stops making any real sense

what part of she's really hot do you not understand?

But he could be banging Rem instead

>It looks like the writer had like 4 different Subarus in mind, but couldn't stick to just one, so he has him flip-flop between many different personalities.
no, your personality changes quite a lot after watching the same person die many times, and then when you get through it you have to go through it all over again in a different scenario.

>banging Rem

that pic is really hot, is there more of that?

Are you trying to say you wouldnt?

>Ousting yourself

Bud.

Am I missing something here? Whats wrong with liking Rem?

Was the mods letting Reddit:Zero cancer spam their shitty threads everywhere because a second season got announced a good idea?

have sex incel

they don't have any arguments so they pretend like it's wrong

the only reason why Subaru didn't bang Rem yet is because he's a pussy

I hope he gives up on Emilia and goes with Rem. It just makes way more sense

Whiter than you, Mohammed

fpbp.

email them about it if you have a problem with it

No

It aint his fault he's cursed by Satella to love Emilia

Yes, very at least in his original rendition. Every adaption of him is shit though.

He should just fuck Satella instead

this. the show would be unironically be better if they just wrote him out of it.

If you aren't such a shonen tard that you can "endure" the main character being weak, making mistakes, and bettering himself over time instead of having powerups, then yes.

At some point he did, he just can't remmeber

man, are you telling me you wouldn't switch your ways if you absolutely knew how you were doing things will lead you to unavoidable and painful death? And, like, you will be forced to the very same destiny every time if you decide to hold your ground?

Honestly if it wasn't for his Satella obsession he'd be getting laid 24/7

if anything, he's not a gary stu and that's about fine.

>characters must always be static
brainlet post.

He has the power to kill himself and reset time back to a previous point. I can't believe he just doesn't always kill himself honestly to get the perfect route. If it was me I would of been able to kill myself, at any point something started to go south. It isn't like their is a limit to killing yourself anyways. Basically, if Subaru was me this show would of been good.

To show how shitty he is, lets see anothet character with basically the same powers as him. That is Saike from Saike Mata Shitemo. If you read that, you would see how much better the character progression and development is. I mean really. How come mangakas who need to draw as well as think of a story and how to develop it is better than a LN author who only need to write.

> It looks like the writer had like 4 different Subarus in mind
almost like if you put an average neet (or any other person for that matter) under extremely stressful situations, like fucking dying, his personality is bound to change

>I can't believe he just doesn't always kill himself honestly to get the perfect route
Dying is still painful and traumatic, and his mental health deteriorates everytime he does it.

>If I were the MC the show would be good
Thanks for the hearty laugh user.

see and read

id recommend you check out some of the IF stories where subaru abuses the hell out of his RBD, each time he ends up totally broken. dying is fucking horrible and doing it over and over again will permantly fuck you up

The entire arc at the mansion shows that he has no idea what the perfect route looks like. Everything may seem like its going well and then all of a sudden hes dead.

Absolutely

You guys don't get it. Subaru doesn't develop as a character. He flip flops. between different personalities every time the author needs him to do. something. He has no consistent personality and no linear development. And I don't self insert into characters. But I like my character development to make sense. And also there is such a thing as emotional investment in the story and characters (it's not the same as self inserting). Basically the author has to give the mc enough liveability that the watcher is invested in the story, worries for the characters and cares when something happens to them. Subaru gives you nothing to care about. There is 0 investment in his story, so it becomes really boring and a chore to watch. And there is absolutely nothing that makes it worth watching. It's seasonal isekai trash. We have seen everything that it does, done better in other shows, movies and etc. It has nothing of value to say or analyse. It is just dumb as fuck seasonal isekai edgefest that the retarded brainlets in the anime community hype up (liked they hype everything else that is trash). Fuck Subaru, Fuck Re zero and fuck the people who think it is good.

No. He gave us no justifiable reason to forgive Rem for killing him. What's worse is he fell in love with her later. How realistic is that?

Yes, but people will tell you otherwise because he's impossible to self-insert into. He isn't a likable character either, but that isn't a requirement for being a good character.

>isekai protag
>good character

>He isn't a likable character either
Yes he is

he is certainly the most disgusting and repulsive looking character

He's an annoying prick, so yeah. That fits the kind of JK boy who gets isekai'd.

>Impossible to self-insert into
He is the most Literally Me teenage LN audience cipher next to 8man and Yung Pigfucker from Bunny Girl. Only instead of sanding off the edges so anyone can self-insert, he's directly the type of person who reads this crap.

That's the whole premise; if (You) were an isekai MC, you'd be this fucker. It's just that Western self-insert desires are more aspirational in personality (alpha chad) than in acquisition.

being relatable does not mean being a self insert

>trying that hard to prove his point
That's sad user

>implying

also it's been explained that he doesn't know if there's a limit to return by death, he's scared that every life is the last one and there won't be more restores. he does get the idea of abusing it in arc 5 and it breaks him.

unironically one of the better scenes and he's right, from his point of view he saved emilia's life multiple times

just because hes correct doesn't mean hes right.

what

hes techinally correct that he saved emilias life but he was wrong to act entitled because of it

the point is, he acts like a typical white knight anime protag he reads about so much in front of everyone. And then he accidentally reveals what he was actually thinking and who he was (which is just a pathetic entitled neet teen) after he got angry and stopped suppressing his real thoughts. Which surprised both him and emilia. Its a really damn good scene.

Nope, just another limp dick jap who is a social outcast that needs to have special gifts to feel special and thinks the world owes him anything. But don't worry, many plot conveniences will save his retarded ass.

>missing the entire point of the show
cringe

bro just quit when you are ahread

>3 more arcs till best girl no.3 comes along
Man how pissed would anons here be
