#I love your art sm! #Rem chewing on Subarus leg like a rabid dog is more true to her character than how she's portrayed by the majority of the fandom methinks #re: zero

Exactly! "Smoking and sensitive" is a really interesting way to describe them. They've both been through so much, and it wouldn't be surprising if they had become bitter because of everything that's happened to them. But their hearts remain so tender. And their will remains bold. They're not unscathed by their respective traumas, not in the slightest. But they're able to help each other through the painful and ugly corners of their hearts. And through the other, they learn to love themselves more.

Their banter is also absolutely adorable. I'm always giggling kicking my feet whenever they're together.

hey, I hope this is not inappropriate,

I just wanted to say thank you for your kind words for my emisuba post. They made me really happy.

Awww thank you so much! 🥹 It's not inappropriate at all! I've kind of had a similar theory for a while now, but it was much less well put together. So It made me really excited to see a much more cohesive version of my own thoughts, in a way.

#emisuba is also one of the only couples i truly ship #not just in re zero but across any media #and it feels like there are barely any posts about them #so it always makes me really happy to see something for them #especially when it's a post as good as yours

There is a version of Emilia/Subaru that makes me go absolutely feral but i'm not sure re:zero will go that way so I decided to write it out just to get it out of my system (and than accept what I'm given by a really excellent story that is just doing something different than what I want)

So in that version of events Emilia=Satella. I heard through fandom osmosis that there are two different entities in Satella (Envy and Satella). Emilia is Satella.

Second: the first time loop we see isn't Subarus first timeloop (I think that is canon because a) we never see Subaru arrive in Lugunica b) his relationship/contract with Satella is already in place) -> that can have two different reasons: a) Subaru is a reincarnation of someone Satella knew or he forgot a bunch of stuff including Satella. My feral HC combines these two

So what if a version of Subaru met Satella 400 years ago (maybe the guy who was summoned 400 years ago and brought a bunch of Japanese culture to Lugunica) but he was kind of fucked up/a bit of a fuckboy as was Satella who was at that point just completely disillusioned by the world and what if they kind of found love in each other but we're to far gone to actually make each other happy/be good for each other (or maybe just Satella was this way) and so they decided to start again both as a version who can become good. Satella sealed herself. The good part of her became Emilia and the "bad" part remained to protect Subaru. and Subaru reverted maybe to his self in the beginning of the summonings (or became reincarnated as well) and so they started again. Because Satella cannot die there's still a version out there who desperately loves Subaru and she saves him. She is the part of Emilia that Emilia has sealed because she cannot believe that she can be good if she is Satella at the same time (And Emilia was born to be happy) both Subaru and Emilia forgot her. And now Subaru hates Satella. He fears her. All that love and nowhere to go. She comes across as a crazy stalker. At the end of re:zero Emilia and Satella become one (that is how Satella is defeated) and they become able to die as well as Subaru becoming mortal as well and it's revealed that Subaru wasn't alone in remembering. There was someone else as well who remembered and struggled and tried to do better.

AND all the what ifs are canon because they are things Subaru choses at one point or the other and than Satella reverts everything back to zero because Subaru failed to become happy and good

#HOLY SHIT #this is unironically one of the best theories I've heard #I LOVE the idea of a character choosing to be reborn in hopes that they can find happiness in their next life #But being unable to because it's in their nature to always take the hard path #They were born to be happy but they choose to suffer #Because how could they not? How could they take the easy way out? #but they DO end up finding happiness #because they help each other to find it #absolutely god teir take i hope tappei's brain works like yours #re: zero #natsuki subaru #emilia re:zero #this would also bring a whole new meaning to “restarting life in another world from zero” #on top of the #like 5 other meanings the title already has

Made some in-universe memes about a hypothetical Universal RBD Reveal from the perspective of random Lugunican citizens

I am absolutely obsessed with witch cult victim theory. I also think it would make a lot of sense to the cast, especially if it was combined with the theory that Subaru got his name and memories eaten.

Although this is more just what I think would make sense with what the rest of the cast knows about Subaru. Not nessasrally what they might actually think about him. Although I'll also consider that.

He would undergo the typical witch cult victim theory shenanigans (torture) while in the witch cults custody, which I think could include having his name eaten. He may have also had some of his memories eaten as part of this, but I prefer to think he lost them due to insanity. Although I don't actually think he really "lost" his memories in this hypothetical situation. I think it would make more sense that they were just...jumbled up in a way. He may remember things like his relationships with the people he cared about, what these people were like, certain aspects of how the world works, some things about his hometown, and the sorts, but none of it really makes sense anymore. He knows he cared about Emilia, but he can't remember her name. He knows he was her knight, but he's not quite sure what a knight actually is anymore. Or how one is supposed to act. Written words don't make any sense. Details about his homeland that may have seemed a bit strange or unique to the average person get twisted and blown out of proportion to become fantastical.

So basically, I think it would make sense if he was from some village that got destroyed by the witch cult (like what happened with Rem and Rams village). This village may have been pretty isolated, with very little or almost no contact with the rest of the world. This might explain why no one has ever heard about anything he mentions as being "from his hometown."

I do also think some characters probably think they knew Subaru before, but then his name got eaten. So It could be that he fled when his village was destroyed, somehow got involved in the royal selection (probably by becoming Emilia's knight), and then got kidnapped by the witch cult as he was hunting them down for revenge. Or, he may have left his hometown for any other reason, became Emilia's knight, and then went back to visit his village and was there when it got attacked. Either way, he ends up being kidnapped by the cult.

Anyways, like I've said, I don't think anyone in Re: Zero would have it that thought out, to the point where they've basically just written an angsty fan fiction in their head about Subaru’s hypothetical Tragic Past. This is just what I think would make the most sense considering what they know about him.

I also like the idea that the witch cult probably put him under some sort of taboo so he's not able to tell anyone about any of this.

What are your favorite plausible in-universe theories that the characters have to explain Subaru’s many eccentricities? I’ll go first:

Subaru was a soldier of some sort who served Lady Emilia as one of her only subjects, but after an encounter with the White Whale he lost his Name and thus nobody remembers anything about him beyond the day he saved Emilia from an assassin. The Whale also stole almost all of his memories, which is why he’s illiterate and also lacks common sense most of the time.

#so basically just witch cult victim theory but with extra steps #re zero #re:zero #re: zero #natsuki subaru #everyone knows that having your name eaten is an incredibly horrible experience #so of course the witch cult would use it as a form of torture #if they did let subaru go unstead of him escping that would probably be why #to have him see first hand that he's nothing more than a stranger to everyone he cares about #it doesn't seem out of the question with how cruel everyone knows them to be #it also could explain why subaru had partial imunity to having his memories eaten in arc 6 #cause regualr people probably don't personally come into contact with the witch cult enough #to have their name and memories eaten on separate occasions #so who knows #maybe you WOULD have partial immunity to gluttony if it happened to you a second time #idk though i haven't finished arc 6
