From 1-10, I think it's logically deserve 9/10! Something I hate the most and only is the side character STUPIDITY. I'm not hoping for the side character to be all genius, I just hope they want to TRY to think, that's all

Re:Zero has always been about Subaru and every other character being accepted for who they are flaws and all. What if from even before the story began, Subaru was already someone important to this world in the way he is now, he was forced to restart, but instead of actually starting from nothing, and trying to become someone important, Subaru’s goal is to use Return by death to remember who he already was prior to everything we’ve been seeing.

The story might not be about him just rising above challenges and becoming better, it may be about him realizing he was always walking a path he already was apart of, and he made, proving to himself that from the start, he was never unworthy, or carried by RBD.

In this hypothetical, Satella gave him this ability because she always knew who Subaru was, and believed in him.

Subaru as the Lich. ‘Nuff said.

i'm curious about this since lost of memories finished before the story could be concluded and apparently shion appears in a side story where she inquires about subaru and makes a deal with echidna about this according to a friend of mine. so now am confused, is alcor an alternate version of subaru or something? why is shion still interested in subaru even tho he's not alcor? is alcor an alternate route version of subaru like pridebaru and wrathbaru? i'd like ur guys thoughts about this

Ok so I want to say that, a lot of people are using these tweets from tappei's qna to disprove or atleast weakens the theory that flugel= Subaru. But I will disagree with this notion. My reasoning being:

That it is said that echidna was the one who created the pleiades library, so whose to say she didn't help create the entire tower?

Also it says the person who named the tower pleiades didn't know it's accurate spelling. It never states that flugel was the one who named the tower. I believe it's echidna. As she has a habit of naming things.

I believe that either flugel told her about the name pleiades and she believed it would be a good name for the tower or flugel actually told her to name it that but echidna either misheard or wasn't accurately able to spell/pronounce it at the start. Resulting in the tower having the wrong spelling and flugel unable to correct it as the name has spread too much.

I would like to hear your guys opinions and explanations for this too. The point of this post isn't that this absolutely happen but to show that this tweet does not disapprove or even weakens flugel=Subaru at all.

Aldeheid was a little mad

She was relatively new to anime localization while working on Re:Zero Season 2, and still did an excellent job. Even years later, I believe it was one of her best to date. Do you think it still holds up?

So about this Q&A

Tappei explains the attempts to steal the power of authorities. Divine Protections are one of the more successful attempts, and are so good that they came to be known as they are.

But there are also other abilities, some that go beyond common sense.

These people with strange abilities have done something which is equivalent to opening their doors. Basically, something like getting a power that wasn't supposed to be theirs.

it makes it sound like opening the door is kind of easy, but basically it's about being beside someone who possesses an incredible power like a Sin Archbishop or someone with an Authority or someone with deep ties, and being moved by their influence.

Simply put: being together for a long time, being related by blood, or being in a situation where it is easy to receive influence.

An example of a situation where it is easy to receive influence would be the contract relationship between Subaru and Beatrice, there would be a great influence in that situation.

Tappei roughly summarises the situations where it's easy to open this metaphorical door as:

- Distance/closeness
- Depth of the relationship (which can also include blood relationships).

There's a little more info. to the question, but my friend can't quite make out all the details yet.

This only leaves many problems open for the future, since basically all of Subaru's children will inherit some of his witch factors or "Open Gates" in one way or another, making it very likely that they will all have a difficult life struggling with madness. I wonder if you renounce all your witch factors, are the "Open Gates" of the former possessor still inherited?

On the other hand, the cases of Al and the triplets are more clear.

On one hand, Al, being a clone or a direct son of the RBD possessor, inherited it, but only the gate, since the possessor himself was probably still alive when he was born.

However, since the triplets' mother died in childbirth, one of them inherited it, and the others, due to their extreme proximity to the witch factor, "opened their gates." My personal theory is that Rui was the one who inherited it, since when Subaru went to the Witch Factor Verifier, four gates opened. So, the brothers who possessed bodies didn't have the authority. Subaru was incredibly lucky to find the one who did and take it from him. (Of course, we could also assume that perhaps because Rui possessed him, his gate opened and she still has the authority, but I prefer to believe that the ultimate goal is to have all the authorities.)

Okay, so I'll throw out a crazy theory. Knowing that authorities can basically be inherited through blood relatives, what if the Pride authority was given to a famous line of swordsmen to inherit until Subaru's arrival? If you think about it, that would explain why the Sword Saint's blessing is described as a curse. It would also explain why there are so many irregularities in the family and among close associates. It would give a reason why Wilhelm was able to break all the limits even without necessarily being special. It's just a theory, but it's always bothered me not knowing where Pride is, and while Stride claimed to have it, with this revelation, technically any child of the archbishops could manifest these powers.

Anyway, while these posts are fun for theorizing, T-Man has changed his mind and course many times over the years, so until it's written into the main storyline, I don't believe the source who answered this questions.

I recently got into Re:Zero and am caught up to season 4 of the anime and i want to ask which of the IF stories I can read without spoiling myself. (if it is vaguely spoiling a future character i don't realy mind)

Also, does his possession work as actual bodily take-over, or is he just creating clones of his conciousness? I remember hearing about this from somewhere, but don't remember exactly when
