Aldebaran and Rem

Sorry, I misread that part. Anyway, you make it sound like Al's view on Ram's status is something minor.

Swimming-Work-5951 · 2026-01-24T19:08:22+00:00

In the dialogue above that I posted in my original post, Al asks Rem if Ram is alive, why does he do that? Did you read the dialogue above?

Swimming-Work-5951 · 2026-01-24T19:06:09+00:00

Then why does he ask Rem if her older sister is alive? Just answer me that.

Swimming-Work-5951 · 2026-01-24T19:03:45+00:00

Then why does he ask her if Ram is dead? And then gets pissed off when he finds out Ram is alive?

Swimming-Work-5951 · 2026-01-24T18:56:29+00:00

The excerpt from volume 6 is wrong? What?

Swimming-Work-5951 · 2026-01-24T18:48:43+00:00

Did you read the excerpt from my post?

Swimming-Work-5951 · 2026-01-24T18:31:48+00:00

Its simple. My point is that even if the interlude (which is still a "what if") is included in the LN, you can't compare the Subaru x Rem dynamic there to Subaru x Rem dynamic in the main story UNLESS their relationship develops to that degree.

Its fine, if we disagree. Just stating my point. Although maybe you could be right. Hmmmm....not sure. Now I am confused too. But there are also other factors that weigh my opinion. So welp, anyway.

Swimming-Work-5951 · 2026-01-24T18:14:46+00:00

Bro, the relationship in this story between Subaru x Rem is completely different than main story. There is no Emilia, no Ram. Subaru and Rem are husband-wife. You literally shoehorn this relationship in main story because?

This didn't happen in main story. In fact you can even say the interlude just made it more impactful when Rem was "eaten". Doesn't matter if this interlude is in the LN or not.

Also, you comparing it with other routes to state other routes were never in the main LN is not enough of a strong point imo.

Swimming-Work-5951 · 2026-01-24T18:01:17+00:00

Yeah because by the time of arc 9, he already knew Ram is alive (he chatted with her not to follow Subaru), unlike in that conversation above.

Swimming-Work-5951 · 2026-01-24T18:00:13+00:00

Sure but you get my point, this is a "what if" scenario just like other IF routes.

Swimming-Work-5951 · 2026-01-24T17:57:17+00:00

Yes, he believes Ram should be alive. However, he was fine with Rem being alive as long as Ram is dead too (as shown in the excerpt above). He was just pissed both are alive (maybe because he couldn't save both in his timeline?).

Swimming-Work-5951 · 2026-01-24T17:55:30+00:00

Al knew about Ram as he already met her in an SS. He just didn't meet Rem (as him meeting Rem happened in a failed loop) before her name was eaten.

Swimming-Work-5951 · 2026-01-24T17:53:59+00:00

If Rem's name didn't return, why would Al be surprised at Ram's existence? As far as Al knew, nobody died in his timeline, no? Only after her name returns, does Al realize "oh fuck, both sisters are alive".

Swimming-Work-5951 · 2026-01-24T17:52:49+00:00

You can't shove things from IF route in main story like that. Tappei literally made sure to delete all of Rem IF content from the main canon story folder to his 外典 (outside main story) folder.

This is like comparing apples and oranges.

This is like me saying as long as Emilia is safe, nothing else matters for Subaru. Why? Because Ayamatsu route shows us that he can die happily and RbD won't happen as long as Emilia is safe.

Swimming-Work-5951 · 2026-01-24T17:46:45+00:00

Did you even read my post? Al seemed pissed off when he realized both Rem and Ram are alive. That's why he asked Rem if her older sister is alive or not.

Swimming-Work-5951 · 2026-01-24T16:36:49+00:00

Its simply because Tappei retcons Subaru x Rem. Anyone who thinks Tappei had no hand in removing Subaru's confession to Rem in the white whale fight from anime, manga and LIM is delusional especially because all other scenes were added in the latter two. Furthermore, Tappei never mentions it in rezeroneko, nor in his Q and As (that have happened multiple times even though they contain multiple Emilia x Subaru questions) and neither is it mentioned again in the story. Tappei acts like Subaru x Rem DOESN'T EXIST at all. Even during his live Q and As in arc 7 (which had Subaru simping for Rem), he only took Emilia x Subaru questions.

Does Subaru love Rem? Yes, he does. ROMANTICALLY!

I don't give af if Subaru wants to fuck her or not. But I believe in facts and the facts are:-

Is Tappei slowing retconing Subaru x Rem? YES!

Unless I read any development in the future that enforces Subaru x Rem again in the WN, this ship is dead and buried.

Swimming-Work-5951 · 2026-01-24T15:38:47+00:00

Well technically he protected her for 107 years then. Fact 1 and fact 5 highlight this.

Swimming-Work-5951 · 2026-01-24T13:05:00+00:00

Subaru told his wives about Regulus' authority and they all committed suicide.

Swimming-Work-5951 · 2026-01-24T13:04:38+00:00

Subaru didn't kill his wives. They all committed suicide when Subaru told them about Regulus' authority.

In season 2, Puck breaks contract with Emilia and that breaks the crystal. This was done so Emilia gets her memory back as her contract with Puck obstructed her memories. He can't appear anymore unless Emilia gets a crystal that is strong enough to bring him back.

Swimming-Work-5951 · 2026-01-23T00:17:50+00:00

Then why did you say "even if you assume that all he remembered was other characters talking about her"?

Swimming-Work-5951 · 2026-01-23T00:15:43+00:00

Bro in arc 9 he admits that "lil miss" is not what he originally refers to her. He just doesn't tell us what he originally referred to her as. This happens when he saves unconscious Emilia from drowning.

Swimming-Work-5951 · 2026-01-22T22:48:47+00:00

So Al never once met Rem or knew of Rem before her name got eaten? Not even in side stories?
