Kazuma is weaker and lacks the level of willpower Subaru has. He's also way worse at hiding the fact that he's a shitty NEET, and is a massive perv. I don't know that he even would have gone after Emilia, in which case the possibilities are too broad, but if he did put in enough effort early on to get to the mansion things may have progressed in a similar way. He's actually really clever and inherently quite lucky, so in the long run he'd be able to solve most of the problems well enough.

Subaru might not have brought Aqua with him seeing as he's not super vindictive, but in that case he'd probably do well enough - just as well as any of the other broken Japanese heroes. If he did have Aqua instead of a busted power/weapon, he'd probably end up a bit better of than Kazuma on a daily basis, but his comparatively shitty luck would land him more hardships and less rewards on the days when shit actually went down. He might even have a different starting class than adventurer.

They both die a horrible death in the very first episode. The end.

>Subaru

Stopped reading there

The man got through some pretty heavy challenges and has the strength to keep going after literally dying several times. At the absolute minimum that's impressive for a NEET - and he certainly has more will than Kazuma, the laziest fuck known to man.

>some pretty heavy challenges
>problems created by himself
Stopped reading there

Being lazy is good. It means you don't fuck shit up. Take Subaru. If he were more lazy, nothing bad ever would have happened.

Not knowing about the bad things happening isn't the same as the bad things not happening. You're right that he created some problems, but his motivation didn't birth psychotic murderers and horrible monsters.

Ah, so you're an asshole. Got it.

Nobody claimed such a thing. The point is to not get involved and let psychotic murderers and horrible monsters just fight each other, like who cares? You don't just go and get involved with mexican drug cartels, holy fucking shit. How stupid would that be?

>You don't just go and get involved with mexican drug cartels
No, but mexican drug cartels haven't attempted to slaughter people right in front of me. He new the details of impending danger to people he knew and cared about to some extant - which is very different than arbitrarily seeking out danger. And regardless, the first sentence of my reply stands: the bad stuff still would have happened, he just wouldn't have known about it.

Man its almlst as if you don't know that someone is lowkey mindcontrolling him and there is someone in the mansion manipulating is every move yet he somehow breaks off and fights against fate from time to time. Oops.

still a better story then how either of them turned out.

Kazuma is okay, if not for horrible normalfag shipping. I've no issue with choice of main love interest, it's just it shouldn't be up to fans to decide. Very cowardly move by the author.

I need to watch these shows someday. Is Subaru a good MC? Does he do anything relevant cause he seems like the useless type

Imagine being this contrarian

He's interesting

Does Subaru keep his reincarnation power? If so, he probably dies enough in Axel to create a new monster like the Winter Shogun, but honestly levels his way to being worthy of heading to the capital. He'd get Emilia-tan weird over either Chris, Wiz or Darkness, depending on who he imprints on first. None of the girls would reciprocate, although Yunyun might end up being his Rem.

Kazuma either gets his fool ass killed immediately by popping off or rides his luck and general hardworking NEET nature into being a merchant of some repute. He stays far away from the Re:Zero plot unless Emilia or someone offers him a bunch of money. If he ends up around Rem and Ram, he will perv on one or both and get torn to pieces for it. He might fuck off to the not-Japan IF takes place in.

Not until what's covered in Season 2. He does cause a lot of shit to happen though, most of it to himself.

>Not until what's covered in Season 2
May as well say you only enjoy it ironically, your intent would be the same.

> He does cause a lot of shit to happen though, most of it to himself.
None of it was his doing other than the castle incident.

I just wanna know if he fights or does he stand around being useless while his teammates do all the work

His job is to find a way for him and those he likes to survive. He's weaker than everyone else but he does jump into danger/fights.

He does fight and he's not useless, but he is nearly useless in a fight. That is, he gets his ass kicked whenever he has to do any real fighting, so he has to contribute in other ways or by getting his ass kicked slowly enough to buy time. He's far from a spectator though.

He dies a lot. He rushes headlong into danger and gets killed for it. Dude's playing I Wanna Be The Guy: Isekai Edition.

Not when none of Takahashits characters sound alike.

Are you trying to insult her by saying she makes her characters sound different? Shouldn't that be the opposite of an insult to a voice actor?

Must be strange for you since there is a movie coming out for Konosuba.

It's nice to have range but you can't appreciate that range if every voice sounds like it comes from a completely different actor.

Subaru has also died multiple times. But he doesnt act like a bitch and mind break when it happens

Kazuma*

read the wn filthy secondary

Why would I want to read that shit?

Subaru has made his own bed and slept in it
Kazuma would've probably done the same thing in Re:Zero world as he did in Konosuba: invent a lot of appliances from our world, sell the patents and then Neet around on interest money
Subaru would've probably diedin Konosuba's world after doing some dumb shit

such a utter mediocre shows, maybe exchanging them would reach new levels of low

Subaru would get to bang Aqua's sweet ass, whereas Kazuma would try to humor the "R" sisters.

Fuck this guy.

>Does he do anything relevant cause he seems like the useless type
As far as season 1, Subaru is the suffering type, which is the objectively superior type of MC.
He also creates his own suffering (and is called out on it) which places him above the usual bland MCs.

You really triggered the Konosubafags

They're incomparable, one is a parody, the other is a drama.

>but you can't appreciate that range if every voice sounds like it comes from a completely different actor.
Speak for yourself. You sound like some retard who waifus voice actresses.

Kazuma deserves all the weight of his Karma for being a scumbag

What was cowardly?

Kazuma in Re:Zero would just be isekai Groundhog Day. He'd spend centuries looking for exploits before even considering embarking on the main quest.

Doing a poll on who should win Kazumabowl and writing results into the novel.

When did that happen?

This. People in general have inherently shit taste so if I was an author and decided to do a poll I would write the exact opposite of what they voted for just to see retards cry about it.

I would watch that.

DOMO

Damn... that just made me feel bad at the thought of Kazuma having to go through all that, but then I feel worse for Subarur for actually having to experience it, but I guess that's just how it is since many people want to experience a dark story and not all story can be happy slice of life kinds, so that means some characters must suffer Dispproporitanely and Suba is just one of them,

there was an official short story and manga about that exact scenario

Attached: 71jBsu6xAPL.jpg (707x1000, 222K)

Well when Kazuma dies it isn't because he's locked in a loop where seemingly no matter what he'll do, the same events are going to repeat where everyone he knows and cares about dies a horrific death, or now realizes people he thought of as friends actually saw him as walking garbage and have no issue about killing him in cold blood, or that the world is going to end over and over again and it might be his fault, while he cannot confide in anyone about these thoughts because either he or them are going to get killed if he even makes the attempt.

When Kazuma dies it's the D&D equivalent of "The cleric's fee's coming out of your share of the loot, bitch."

Kazuma doesn't go back in time though, just basks in Eris presence for a bit until Aqua blackmails him out of afterlife.

He still experiences death though you autist, but unlike subaru he doesn't turn into a whiny bitch because of it

He throws a tantrum everytime he dies.

Also Aqua can't be killed until Demon Lord is defeated so anyone who matters to Kazuma has virtually free ticket back to life.
There's no resurrection in Re:Zero as far as I know.

Dumb secondary

Not my fault adaptation is shit and failed to attract me into reading the novels.

I mean, subaru would too. But when he realized he wants to dick her she already became veggie

Kazuma would have abused the fuck out the time reset. He'd complain about needing to die every time, but see that the time reset is a fucking broken power and totally worth it.

Wouldn't time reset have anything to say about such blatant abuse?

Time reset is fueled by Emilia, so it'll do whatever conveniences her the most.

He chose best girl, just deal with it already. Anyway, Kazuma has done pretty damn well for himself. Considered a hero by anyone who doesn't really know him, multimillionaire, friends with nobles and royalty, friends with a goddess that bails him out if he gets wrecked, cute loli gf, and even the people around town that know he's a dick also like him in their own way. I only wish I had half the success Kazuma has had in like a year of being in fantasy Australia.

I am a meguminfag but honestly that is pathetic

Subaru is cringey in the real meaning of the word, like he does stuff that makes me embarrassed for him. Okabe is a weeb chad that can actually claim to be the mad scientist he says he is because he actually did invent a time machine.

She already had an advantage in the WN and the author has explicitly said she is his favorite character. This happened 3 years ago get over it faggots

Is everyone in this thread fucking retarded? Are you people unironically discussing how these two protags from an action thriller and a COMEDY would handle each other's respective settings and getting genuinely butthurt? Of course fucking Kazuma would get shit on constantly, that's the whole goddamn point of Re:zero. And naturally Subaru would have an easy time in a show designed around punchlines rather than suffering and adversity. I swear fucking underages ruined this board, turning a potentially fun thread into isekai MC wars.

And you just bumped it. You are part of the problem as well

Learn how to read. I have no problem with the concept of the thread, just children within it.

This is an interesting topic and I don't see the issue with discussing it. It is precisely because the characters are from two different genres that switching them would be interesting, especially putting Kazuma in the high-stress and high-stakes world of Re:Zero.

Personally, I think after he realizes that all the work he puts in keeps getting reset, he'll probably become a NEET in that world too and just wait for the inevitable time reset. He really doesn't get much done without someone kicking him in the pants.

>I need to watch these shows someday
No, you don't. Do you a favor and don't watch them.

Konosuba is a good comedy, watch it.

If you think just anyone can go through what he did and keep fighting you're fucking delusional.

The only force that keeps him moving is the boner he got from telling Rem to go pound sand.

Motivation is still motivation.

Is Subaru the ultimate pleb filter? I’ve never seen a MC cause so much butthurt

The best part is that he's right most of the time. But since he can't prove shit it's driving him literally insane.

Fucking contrarians I swear to God. Just let him watch it and makes up his own goddamn mind.

>hurr durr why don't you shovel shit into your mouth like the rest of us, you filthy secondary

>invent a lot of appliances from our world, sell patents, Neet
Goddamn I need to get Isekai'd right fucking now!

Try recreating a patent right now without using the internet. You can’t

Kazuma is a hell of a lot smarter than Subaru, I can see him making the best out of the situation while trying his best to stay away from trouble.
He'd most likely just find a way to make lots of money and chill for the rest of his life.
Subaru wouldn't be able to scam Aqua and end up alone trying to form a normal party and dying in his first adventure.

I'm pretty sure he uses magic and fantasy materials for some of the stuff he makes. I think one of the latest volumes that came out in English mentions that he was making a type of superglue or something, but he was using materials he could get a hold of.

>Subaru wouldn't be able to scam Aqua and end up alone trying to form a normal party and dying in his first adventure.
I think if he started as a noob, Subaru might be able to become a decent "normal" adventurer. Not gonna take down any demon overlords, but he'd get by.

We all know you hate him, Stiyl

With the right motivation and opportunity it's possible

Holy fuck, I knew it was pandering to Megamemers, but that really pisses me off.

Subaru becomes Aquas slave doing meaningless shit for her, still falls in love with her and gets killed before she gets tired of him.

Kazuma would NEET again at Emilias place.

>literally dying several times
Yeah except he doesn't suffer from the only negative thing about dying: being dead.
Isn't much of a big deal now isn't it?

Why do all re:zero fags act like it's suffering an edgy curse when he really just gut time travel powers for the price of some pain?
If i had a time machien that would break my arm each time i use i'd do backflips of happiness.

The majority of his suffering is cause by him not finding a convenient painless method of killing himself when needed.

Don't bother if you want to justify anything with the manga btw.

Its almost as if he's risking having points move almost at random. Also there is literally three IFs that answer your arguement and its all kinds of fucked up. But I guess using anything other than the anime would cause me to have an unsubstanced arguement foryou huh?

In fairness you're right, that did completely slip my mind. Even so, his deaths are fewer and there's way less trauma involved each time. He also doesn't have to deal with the pressure of not being able to vent about it and having everything around him reset.

Funny thing is I actually am a Konosubafag. I might even prefer it to Re:Zero, though I love both. It's just simple reality that Subaru is immediately willing to be a hard worker in his new life whereas Kazuma is exceptionally lazy.

>Subaru is immediately willing to be a hard worker in his new life
And throwing hissy fits when it's not appreciated the way he imagined it should be.

No, i believe you guys that the source material is better, would be pretty sad if not.
Just tired because every time i say something negative about this bad show people act act like a something i didn't read magically makes the show i just watched better.

it's just a boring conversation if it always falls back on "yeah the adaptation was really bad, the manga fixes every plothole and cringy bullshit", yet the show was succesful and people hype up season 2.

Feel free to invalidate my point about the convinient suicide method, since i'm pretty sure every writer would come up with an excuse sooner or later.

Doesn't change my point about that guy being stupid for implying that having the strength to die for something is still impressive if you get respawned every time.

>Not at all. That's not a thing he does
Use this on your eyes, apparently they serve no purpose.

>Not at all. That's not a thing he does and I don't know what gave you that idea. Of course, even if he had that would be somewhat in-character, and it wouldn't erase the fact that he got off his ass of his own volition - even volunteering to do work rather than accept an empty reward.

I deleted the post and was about to replace it because I just realized what I said was stupid in the grand scheme. I was too focused on his choice to be a butler - which in fairness he didn't have any weird expectations about - but when it comes to the efforts put into saving people with his loops him having a breakdown over being underappreciated was a major plot point, yes. Still, it was a bit more than just whining about unappreciated efforts - the stress of his situation and the fact that he physically couldn't explain himself also played a role.

>And throwing hissy fits when it's not appreciated the way he imagined it should be.

What the fuck are you babbling about you mongrel? I said that you were trivializing Subaru. That's the fact.

Not my fault he's an obnoxious little bitch in the anime.

He died at every action at least once per reset during his first encounter.

Yeah, but he didn't start in an adventurer town with a guild and class system in place for him to use. Axel Town is way friendlier to beginners than anything Subaru faced. It's true that he could encounter some thugs or a psychopath like in Re:Zero, but if he had the same series of encounters as Kazuma he'd be fine.

What a brainlet post, seriously. First of all, who are you to say that the experience of dying isn't incredibly traumatic? Perhaps it isn't, but how could you possibly know? Second of all, when people refer to him dying as traumatic they usually mean the pain associated with him dying - being gutted like a fish by Elsa, being cursed then hammered to death by Rem, getting frozen to the point where your body cracks and your limbs fall off. How about being eaten from the inside out by murder-rabbits? But I guess you're too tough to empathize with that.
Moreover, the very act of resetting time is a horror in itself, the series partly addresses it by bringing up the topic of multiverses, with RBD possibly shifting his consciousness to a different universe each time he resets. This would mean that everyone who died during his loops are still dead and the people he's with currently aren't the same as those from previous loops.
But you can go deeper than that, even if the multiverse thing turns out to be untrue and you're just resetting time. You might retain your memories and identity but everyone else die an existential death. Here's something to chew on: if a person has their timeline altered and life reset by 10 years, say from age 20 to age 10, would you consider them the same person? How about if they reset by a year? How about a week? Where's the line drawn? What happened to all the memories and experiences that accumulated into making them who they were? Where does it go? Nowhere, the person they were doesn't exist.

>Kazuma is weaker and lacks the level of willpower Subaru has.
Kazuma dies regularly without being a pussy about it like Subaru.

Fuck me, Kazuma has Aqua by his side who can't die until Demon Lord is defeated.
So Kazuma and everyone that matter to him get a free, guaranteed resurrection.

>Dude parallel universes and time travel are really deep and philsophical
k

Subaru would be perfectly fine in Konosuba, he certainly wouldn't make the same move as Kazuma and ask for a useless goddess as his cheat. With a proper cheat it would pretty much become a normal isekai series for the guy.

Kazuma would also be fucked in Re:zero but less so than Subaru, Thing about Konosuba is that all the characters are pretty great at their specialized class and not much else. Likewise Kazuma is pretty much the perfect rogue and usually isn't trying to play the hero like Subaru. He'll probably die less and lay much lower even intentionally skipping dangerous events anyway (he'll probably just leave emilia to die for instance)

No, he loves Emilia.

He loves Rem so everyone is up for grabs and Emilia is probably his waifu.

>Subaru would take Aqua shit literally
Subaru isn't into scat but he would probably fuck at least all of them except Megumin anyway. Subaru would also just make friends with the characters that are actually competent instead of fucking around with the same sluts all day while being extremely gay.

This. Kazuma unironically dies regularly, and it does not seem to bother him psychologically like Subaru, that alone would make him basically OP in that setting.
If he keeps that attitude, then he can basically brute force it, and he would probably abuse it to do naughty things and then just kill himself for fun.

Subaru also has a free guaranteed resurrection

>Subaru also has a free guaranteed resurrection

No, he gets to meet Aqua once, then he's off to fantasy Australia alone.
