It's very OK to not like Subaru (I find him annoying too), but... + Show Spoiler + You make it sounds he can just reset and everything is fine for him. I'm not quite sure if we watch the same show. He's one of the most "human" anime characters there are, he's very flawed and by now mentally insane *because* of his reset power. Did you see him walk into that village and see dead bodys, completely ignoring it? Does he regret his actions? I'm pretty sure he regrets being weak at least. His love for Emilia is not healthy as you could see very well in the recent episodes, he's pretty sick. It's a mix of PTSD and Subaru's crazyness, which was always there even before the last 3 episodes. | ||

he doesn't like the reset and was really concerned in the previous arc about what'll happen if he reset one more time. He's annoying, yes, very annoying and quite obsessive but he's also quite flawed as stated above.

It'd be great if some characters would die, just to remind him that he can't rely on his ability for everything. While I agree, look at the current situation. + Show Spoiler + He's completely floored. What is really bizzare to me is that with how strong Roswaal and Beatrice are, they should've been able to help Rem? I can only guess she was attacked right as she passed the gate and they both were busy? Or whoever attacked was really strong and took them out? All the questions piling up! lol. | ||

Are there any drawbacks to casting magics? Can a melee assassin get close to a mage? but it's fun anyway to speculate ^^ | ||

He can't control his time reset easily, but I'm sure the plot will always allow himself to be reset in a more convenient time. He won't need to apologize to Emilia or purple hair because he won't have to. The only consequences he doesn't like that follows him are his mental state so yes it is about Subaru going insane with nobody around that can really help him. Has yet to have actual consequences follow him which is part of the reason he has such an inflated ego and thinks he can do everything. | ||

I thought he had gotten a little back on track at the end of the last arc but nope it was just buried a bit because of his success and there was nothing going on during that time. Last couple of episodes its all coming back out. As to Blackmagister's point, you are correct + Show Spoiler + he does have a bit of a "I can do anything" attitude because of his previous successes. He is worried about the resets though, either they stopping or having the checkpoint moved up too far. I suspect this will happen because its a fairly easy way to show consequences. Someone will die or something bad will happen and his reset won't bring him to before it happened. Obligatory Rem is awesome. | ||

[05:32] <%EchOne> why are people watching relife and what is it [05:33] <Toad|> idk, she [tomato] annoyed me more early on [05:33] <%EchOne> I saw mj/toad also watching it [05:33] <@Souma> First two eps were pretty solid, Echo [05:33] <Elementaryschool> cos they released 13 eps at once echo [05:33] <@Souma> Then it got too dramatikku. [05:33] <Toad|> yeah first 2-3 episodes had me really hooked [05:33] <Toad|> now I'm just sitting here, wondering why I'm watching melodrama + Show Spoiler + not finished yet, I finished 8 episodes so far. But I'm just not a fan of this show starting out about being rehab for MC (hence first 2 episodes nice) and then turning into Drama between everything else. Heck even the supporters had an episode for themselves so far and by itself that would be perfectly fine. But with all the other "omg I hate you stupid bitch! I'm gonna grab your bag to get you real good!" highschool drama it just feels silly how this basicly turned into everyone BUT the MC needing help... While I was at the aforementioned supporter-episode the OST downright annoyed me. They have this, usually pretty nice piano only playing in the background but at some point it's just too much | ||

I heard some bad things about Rokka's story arcs, but I LOVED season 1's art and setting. The Pre-Colombian American fantasy setting was quite a breath of fresh air, and the art was wonderful. | ||
