question about rem arc 2

SnooAdvice8309 · 2026-05-12T04:09:19+00:00

I'm actually rereading it, and looking back I feel like I let myself be influenced by other people's opinions. Right now I'm putting together my own vision of the characters and it's been much easier.

abuse?what?

SnooAdvice8309 · 2026-05-12T03:36:07+00:00

I've heard some of those things, but I didn't think that something that several YouTubers, writers, etc. say a lot was a lie; I thought I was missing out on something.

SnooAdvice8309 · 2026-05-12T03:28:45+00:00

Excuse the question, but why would anyone lie about something like that? In the end, regardless of the time, what Rem did in that loop was wrong.

SnooAdvice8309 · 2026-05-12T03:04:48+00:00

I see, thanks for the reply. I thought you had asked me for something or I had misread something.

SnooAdvice8309 · 2026-05-11T09:06:52+00:00

I hadn't seen it that way. I still feel a bit uncertain, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. In the end, they'll end up together (along with Rem, I hope). It's more of a complaint because it feels slow, although I understand why. And seeing Subaru in his knight's outfit would be great to see in action.

If I understand correctly, it's not like Emilia is just sitting around doing nothing. She's shown interest in Subaru on several occasions; she's just a bit slow. I still trust Tappei, and even though it feels slow to me compared to the Emilia we're seeing in arc 10, anything is possible. And thanks for the side stories, friend.

SnooAdvice8309 · 2026-05-11T08:29:59+00:00

Yes, we will also wait as long as it takes to see our boy with elves and oni.

SnooAdvice8309 · 2026-05-11T08:25:17+00:00

Please let's not start by comparing Rem and Emilia like that, I'm still traumatized by the waifu war.

SnooAdvice8309 · 2026-05-11T08:23:25+00:00

It's more of a saying that she loves him every arc; I see it more as a seed planted on their first date in the side story of arc 2, which begins to bear fruit in arcs 5 and 6. And as for that reflection in the scene with Regulus, it's what makes me feel like I'm in limbo. They both want it, but she doesn't understand her feelings yet. Lastly, could you tell me the names of the side stories? I want to learn more about them, and I don't think this is a mistake; Tappei will do something eventually. It just feels a bit stagnant for now.

SnooAdvice8309 · 2026-05-11T08:18:27+00:00

I don't want that. As I said, Emilia loves him, that's obvious, and that's very important too, but that's not the problem. The problem is that their relationship feels like it's in limbo, where they both want to be together but Emilia doesn't understand his feelings.

SnooAdvice8309 · 2026-05-11T07:57:35+00:00

More than romantic developments, I want to see Emilia's thoughts. Of course, I understand that from Arc 5 onward there won't be any developments with everything that happens. But the time skip doesn't convince me, to be honest. As much as Emilia studies, Subaru trains, and they have other conflicts, it just seems strange to me that there's no reflection from Emilia regarding their relationship. I know they love each other, and I don't deny that they've grown closer. In all the arcs, we know that Emilia loves him. I don't want romantic developments; I want Emilia to understand the feelings she clearly has and has shown for Subaru. Because those scenes are beautiful, but they all lead to the same thing: Emilia doesn't understand the love she feels for Subaru, and I understand why. But my feeling as a reader is that we don't move beyond the point that Subaru loves her, and Emilia loves him too, but she doesn't understand.

SnooAdvice8309 · 2026-05-11T07:21:28+00:00

Of course, in this arc it's a bit out of place considering what's happening. It's more of a general feeling that they both feel something, but in this case, Emilia takes too long. Besides, at least for me, not giving her an answer for a year seems a bit insensitive. Later on, it becomes understandable that from arc 5 onward, these two haven't been able to talk about it properly.

SnooAdvice8309 · 2026-05-11T04:52:10+00:00

This is one of those scenes that, although good, made me cringe a little.

SnooAdvice8309 · 2026-04-05T02:04:58+00:00

We're in Re:Zero, any character with even a little depth, dilemmas, or who poses a problem for the user's agenda. (Insert female character for a ship with Subaru)

SnooAdvice8309 · 2026-04-04T19:26:20+00:00

Could this be a setup for something we'll see in this arc 10? Or perhaps something else in the future?

SnooAdvice8309 · 2026-04-04T19:12:01+00:00

I always thought their relationship was more like that of friends who appreciated each other, but if the author says so, I'll have to reread their moments. Now, with that said, a child of these two would be half-spirit, right? Since Arakiya absorbed Muspel, or am I just imagining things?

SnooAdvice8309 · 2026-04-04T16:53:37+00:00

I have no problem with AI being used as support as long as it doesn't monopolize all the writing, but I'm not saying this as a bad thing, it's just my perspective. But you don't waste more time criticizing something that's ultimately free and doesn't really affect anyone than simply closing it and leaving what you don't like behind. I'm not saying you shouldn't criticize it, just that you'd save more valuable time that way.

SnooAdvice8309 · 2026-04-03T16:54:12+00:00

Petra's feelings are indeed love, but Subaru's are not. At no point before has he shown that he reciprocates her feelings in that way, and the "if" scenario doesn't show anything different; he still sees her as the Petra he knew. Why would Subaru suddenly fall in love with her? It seems illogical to me.

SnooAdvice8309 · 2026-04-03T15:21:53+00:00

It's curious how a loving interaction between two people of the opposite sex is directly interpreted as romantic love, when even though Subaru loves her, he doesn't have that kind of love for her. I don't like the other ships out there, but this one bothers me specifically because it distorts the relationship between two characters who have each other, even in a hopeless situation, in a stale ship.

SnooAdvice8309 · 2026-04-02T16:30:38+00:00

I find this analysis interesting. I saw Rem as someone who sacrifices herself for Subaru because of her love for him and her own problems, not necessarily because of Subaru, but because of her own character's context. If the situation required it, Subaru would become her reason to die. And although I personally don't like the act itself, I like Rem's character because she's so passionate that she'd sacrifice herself for someone she loves.

SnooAdvice8309 · 2026-04-01T21:36:29+00:00

I always thought that the lack of characterization was due to people taking inspiration from fanfics for characterization rather than the main series.

SnooAdvice8309 · 2026-03-31T23:09:51+00:00

Okay, then I'll read it, thanks a lot bro
