I don't think my heart ever dropped as much as it did in an anime before than when Subaru said "I love Emilia." to Rem.
Yo that reaction though😂
shot thru the heart - Morgan
i laughed my ass off when i saw that for the first time
it sucks but both characters knew that from the beginning of the conversation
@@TheReactPack So let's say you told one boy, "I love you, and I will be with you forever." However, after a while, another guy came along who made you feel comfortable and confessed his love for you. In this situation, would you leave the first guy and forget all the good moments you had with him?
Subara, in the beginning of this scene, feels defeated as he knows Emily will die and he cannot save her. However, when Rem gives him confidence, he feels he can win this fight and he can save Emily. Also Remember how Rem save Subara in ep 15 with her life, so he Atleast want to save Rem here.
You guys pretty much nailed what I believe the author had intended for the audience to take away from the Rem and Subaru interaction this episode.
The purpose of Rem telling Subaru she loves him and all the things she loves about him was not so that he would reciprocate even though that's her dream. The purpose was to re-establish Subaru's character and encourage him to elevate to his best self. Even though we all like and have sympathy for Rem, Subaru choosing her as his romantic love-interest in this moment is the actual betrayal of his character. That's what he tried to do at the beginning of this conversation out of desperation and it would only harm the both of them to partner up now while he loves Emilia. Subaru verbally telling Rem that he loves Emilia is also the final affirmation Rem needs to know that she did her job well and that Subaru is back to his usual optimistic self. Even though I get it's painful, a lot of audience members/reactors don't get that.
That's why I'm surprised you guys are having so much trouble accepting that Puck and the giant cat creature are the same thing. We've received that new information and have to accept it and move on. We see Puck become the creature and Subaru literally asks the creature if it's Puck, to which he affirms yes. He uses Emilia's nickname and talks like he's familiar with Subaru. It's not the Witch of Envy as Puck refers to her in the third-person. "If you really want to kill me then grow a thousand shadows. Half of what 'Satella' could".
I don't get why they think puck is the witch.
The witch is a silver haired half elf who looks identical to Emilia. Not a giant cat spirit monster
ya it's almost like they decided to turn their brains off completely everytime puck shows up. it's really weird. edit: holly fuck, video was released 1 day ago? where the hell have they been lol
@@Layarionrelax it ain’t that deep
@@RingxWorld so whenever you watch a show, u immediately knows what’s going on and know who is who and how it’s going to continue?
@@Sene_-wf2py Subaru knew it was Puck and the monster introduced itself as Puck and they're going hard in insisting on it not being

Subaru episode 18: "I love Emilia."
Audience: "What?!"
Subaru since episode 21: Wait, I love Rem.
Audicence: "We knew it, you idiot..."
You: "What?! Nah I will play like he doesn't"
@@blackcid that revisionist history. It's truly pathetic to change facts just because you want a character to be in love with someone they're not.
meanwhile subaru in LN: "I wanna f*** satella, possess everything she is and what she has, I hope the next time I see her again I have a mouth and a body so I can pour all my lust in her."
Rem fanboys: "huh?"
Emilia fanboys: "huh?"
Rem: zzzzzz
Emilia:"don't touch my man!"
Satella the only best girl.
@@blackcidhe’s never stated he loves Rem
@@SolitaryLarkit’s cut content unfortunately - the light novel the author is writing, which the anime is based on, Subaru does confess he loves rem, and he loves her just as much as he loves Emilia, won’t say more for spoiler reasons, but there’s certainly a lot more explanation and development given in the light novel.
This is the first time we got to see what Subaru has thought about himself this whole time. We don't know what his life was like before, but it seems back then he did nothing and thought of his life as meaningless.
This makes sense to why he thought nothing less of his past life when he was transported and was simply excited at starting his life new here.
That's some deep rooted self hatred there. It makes sense why all this time he's been so desperate to be the hero and put on the bravado act in front of everyone.. because he's trying to be someone that he's not. This world has broken down that facade over and over again.. revealing who he truly is. A selfish, entitled brat. A broken man full of regrets and hatred for how much he's wasted his life doing nothing and thus being worthless at anything. He's trying too hard to be perfect at everything because he hates himself and is running away from his problems.
Now.. we're starting again from Zero. Hence the title of the show. He's starting his life in another world from zero. Starting from zero doesn't refer to his return by death... but starting over to change as a person. This time he will hopefully change and start listening to the people around him. To form a better option that will benefit not only himself but others because realistically not many people are going to help you if it doesn't benefit themselves. That's just the harsh reality of this world too. To save everyone you'll need to cater to other people's wishes too, not just your own.
Well put. A lot of people are going to gloss over this aspect from the episode because of the romance subplot. I didn't hear Sam and Morgan touch on it much. Hopefully, once they see the results next episode, they'll understand the true value of this conversation between Rem and Subaru.
I wouldn't call him a entitled brat and more of a ignorant kid but in a terrible situation
@@whateverwhatever4476I think entitled brat suits considering what he done in 12-13 but he will improve.
Yes the big dog is Puck’s true form, he always refers to Emilia has his daughter and per his contract if she dies he is allowed to freeze the world over
Reinhardt be like: No, you're not!
@@hara9511 😂
he's also very clearly a he but they keep sayign "she" and "mother". somehow they got it in their head that that's the witch.
oh you guys have to look up all the memes that came out about subaru when this episode came out lol the whole Fandom was ready to just hang him lol
There’s actually an official sidestory called Sloth If that covers a what-if where Subaru runs away with Rem. It’s kinda wholesome and they end up having kids
Eh I disagree with it being holsum they all are implied acsedents all his kids hate subaru and sex is the only thing keeping there relationship together
@@nathankeel6667 well I mean no arc 6 and 7 happen so probably the best route for Subaru mentally
@@nathankeel6667They don’t hate subaru 💀 It’s just a basic anime father son relationship, that’s like saying Boruto hates Naruto.
You need to reread that story again bro
@KoopaTroopaa69 I feel like I remmber one of the kids getting pissed because subaru neglected them and just pays attention to rem
@@nathankeel6667did you even property read it
Rem wasn’t really confessing with the hope of winning him over I’m glad you guys caught that, but yeah it still hurts and at least Subaru said the truth instead of stringing her along because he does still care about her a lot
And with this episode, Puck has just taken the lead of the Subaru Resets Leaderboard, having caused the last 3 by freezing him. He passed Elsa who was responsible for the first 2.
Tied for 3rd with one reset each, we have the knife hoodlum, the shaman dog, Rem, Ram, and last but not least Subaru himself, for a total of 10 resets so far. Place your bets on who joins the fun next!
SPOILER
Does Elsa take the lead back in season 2?
@@islanoliveira S2 spoilers
With on-screen resets, yes. But Subaru has an unofficial lead as he goes back an unspecified amount of times in S2E1.
@@naghar9827 Thanks.
SPOILER
For I moment I thought about Garfiel but he didn't kill Subaru as many times as they fought.
Rezero s1 ep 18 is the checkpoint for SLOTH IF.
On every subaru's b'day, author of rezero wrote the if stories where subaru took wrong decision.
So
And
Small summary of sloth if , is " what if subaru gave up every thing and run away "
And additional information
S1 ep 2 is check point of PRIDE IF
S1 ep 7 is checkpoint of WRATH IF
@@GreaterSocietyLust IF was a joke by the author
Guys the "wolf" IS puck. It was stated in the beginning of the episode
The author’s biggest reason for making this arc was for Subaru to say “I hate myself” and to say “I love Emilia”
Damn. Is that true?😂
The huge wolf is 100% Puck. He's not the Witch of Envy because I think he said something about her in a scene in this episode that made her sound like a seperate entity. Also, Puck sees Emilia as his daughter, he's pretty much her guardian.
Rem: goes on a 5 min monologue on why she loves Subaru.
Subaru: I love Emelia.
The fanbase : that was brutal
lmaoooo your guys reaction at the I love Emilia part and the edit hahaha. This is where Subaru starts being a protagonist in the true sense
Had to put my laptop down to wheeze-laugh at Morgan's reaction & memes that followed.. god that was brutal & hilarious at the same time. Imagine if she said yes tho.. they'd be miserable af.
Goddamn, was this episode the definition of bittersweet. Very happy that Subaru and Rem can be honest with each other. Like you ladies, I can’t help but feel that Rem deserves better. I didn’t expect this show to be so heavy in romance. But I like that it is, can’t wait to see what comes next for the characters.
Rem holds a deep place in Subaru's heart however its just in 2nd place, but that doesn't mean he doesn't love her deeply he just holds Emilia to a high regard.
I know that this episode sparked a war between the love interest but i dont think Subaru breaking down gets talked about enough in this ep. I think for myself i resonated immensely with him at where i was in my life and i think for alot of young men that are directionless Subaru gives us a bit of comfort and.This is the first moment where i realized hes my MC and he only gets better from here
Exactly the reason he's my favourite MC in anime.
Damn, Subaru plunged alot of daggers in Rem's heart and she's still happy
She is not like us, puting grip to our loved one, and love with dependence and appropriation of the other :D
Kinda cool and mature by Rem ^^
@mana5531 the thing is, its been blatantly obvious that even before Rem fell in love with subaru, EVERYONE knows subaru likes emilia in that mansion. So Rem has already expected that subaru would reject him. What she wants is that she just wants to support him with everything she has for being her HERO.
"Where those birds came from"
If you pay attention, you can see them before
"Does she have to follow? She has her sister."
Everybody at the mansion will be dead by the next day including her if she returns. Rem has died 3 times in the previous timelines so far by returning to the mansion. Anything even close to the mansion dies. There's nothing for her to go back to right now in Subaru's mind.
I think it’s officially safe to say that Rem is one the best girl in the series. I wish I had a Rem in my life 😅😅. The way she continues to support and protect Subaru, while knowing she will be second best, is very admirable. Rem is awesome.
The biggest failure anime made this scene what I have understood is that Subaru does say he loves Rem too, but his first choice is Emilia and always been her. So it's not like he doesn't love Rem, just that he is being fully honest. This scene is just pure honesty, brutal how it might feel for some for him to reject Rem, but Rem knew his feelings and she did reject his offer to run away with her. Rem is just too pure to be real.
Nah, the anime did this episode spot on, he said that later on. But the author himself didn’t want to include it in the anime for some reason(He also cut out a major thing all Light Novel Rem fans wanted to see😂), maybe he backpedaled?
Which would make a big difference between Light Novel Subaru and Anime Subaru
@KoopaTroopaa69
Probably moreso has to do with S1 development. They were unsure if the series would recieve more seasons as many LN adaptations only get greenlit 1 season and then stop to promote the LN. So they basically made it so if no season was made it could still be enjoyed on it's own. Likely also why some important s2 things were cut
That is also why a lot of arc 3 was cut(especially Al).
And they also cut a lot of how toxic Rem is. The anime did her favors because of how creepy and obsessive she actually is being cut
@@KoopaTroopaa69furthermore due to Tappeis own feelings on harems/multiple love interest endings, it is highly unlikely for Subaru to end up with both. So leaving the option open for interpretation makes it seem like Subaru will end up with the 2 if no new seasons were greenlit.
The story implies Emilia doesn’t like the idea of Subaru having her and another girl
This comment maybe use for future reference. Small geographical rezero world upto this episode
During the conversation between rem and subaru.
Rem mentioned
1) Southern country of lunagica , VOLLAKIA have bad terms with lungaica and politics in that country is hard to live. Fun fact is Priscilla came from that country
2) northern country of lunagica GUSTEKO is covered with heavy snow which is also hard to survive. Fun fact is elsa came from that that country
3) and Western country of lunagica aka KARAKAGI is country with less politics but majority of that country are with merchants .so survive is little bit easy . Some facts are anastasia came from that country and in SLOTH IF ,Subaru and rem gave up on everything and run away to KARARAGI
I’m glad y’all undertook that Subaru finally said all the right things. The (many) people who hated Subaru after this and think he owes Rem his romantic love lack the emotional maturity expected of the audience here
"I would have gotten there a lot sooner"
I'd have gotten there after 2 deaths, max lol
17:38 “When no one else in the world believes in you, when you don’t even believe in yourself… I will believe” this line of dialogue just hits so fucking hard
8 years later still hits the same
This episode serves as a great test of whether the reactors actually are paying attention, and also truly understand what the show is about.
There is a story that the author of re zero wrote where it’s story of Subaru and rem running away in this moment. It’s really cool and probably won’t be adapted in anime. It’s re zero if story Sloth route if you want to check!
I'm laughing so hard at the people literally hating Subaru for being honest. Have you all been watching a different anime? He's been all about Emilia since episode 1, and now people are mad that he confirmed his feelings are real? Hilarious.
"It sounds like puck" Cause it's frickin puck oh my god
😂 i can't believe she still don't get it after subaru asking "are you puck?"
Cause in anime sometimes question is = a statement.. 😅
I couldn't believe what I was seeing, ignoring information right in front of them.
This is one of my favorite episodes!
Glad you guys recognized that despite the very clear feelings most people had regarding who Subaru should be with, character-wise it's been clearly established that he loves Emila more than Rem. You are 100% right, he was being selfish and settling when trying to convince Rem to run away. It's interesting since her refusing then prompts his monologue about how awful he is and his deep self-hatred which, by the way, is a wonderful character moment. Think of it this way, you just watched an episode that was primarily two characters in the same exact place just talking with one another. Thats it. There was a little action in the beginning but for the most part they just stood there looking over the city and having their discussion, and its honestly one of the best ReZero episodes.
I think what makes this harder is that at this point in the story, Emila really hasn't done all that much. We dont really know much about her yet. Makes it so much easier to root for Rem. Good thing, and avoiding spoilers, it will be shown that Subaru cares for Rem just as much as Emila, so despite him rejecting her, she is still incredibly important to him.
who's rem?
Subaru was only honest with her, because he really loves her, he just wanted to save her from dying over and over again because of "his fault."
I have never seen an episode in which vocal expression and emotion is put across more than in this episode. the voice actors for this episode both Japanese and English did an amazing job
Guys it's finally here. Re zero reaction
Just so you know, Subaru does have love for Rem, Like, a lot, like he'd die for her as shown multiple times and he has seen her fight to her last bit for him. Remember in the previous episode he was like "screw everything if you all are going to just forget Rem I dont want this anymore!"
Rem has a huge spot in his heart.
18:50 That was a blade through the heart
BEAUTIFUL! BEAUTIFUL! BEAUTIFUL!
"I love Emilia" might sound crazy at first, but it is an assurance for Rem that Subaru won't give up and he'll do his best again, he'll stick being an awesome version of himself that Rem knows :)
sure
Rem's favorite Subaru is the Subaru that loves Emilia. Cope and seethe.
Welcome to the most misunderstood episode in re zeto
Personally 3rd favorite episode my top 2 are in season 2
"i don't think it was puck" wow they're pretty dense sometimes i must say.
I love Emilia too 💕
while i do think when this ep first came out a lot of people overreacted to hell and back to the "i love emilia" moment, I def understand how crushing it could feel to see those words after rem poured her heart out for him and helped him back into a good state of mind. Could have def used a "thank you" somewhere in there but to act as if subaru doesnt appreciate rem or something like some people do is just ignorant 💀
I'm not sure whether Subaru pissed off more people during episode 13 or with the "I love Emilia" line 😂
I don’t get why people were mad at him for this episode. You can’t change how you feel
@@irecordwithaphone1856Almost feels like some people self inserted in this moment. Subaru has been "I love Emilia" since the start 😅
when i was young and this show was airing, i didnt really understand in depth what was going on but what rem said was very touching to someone who was a little bit depressed and self loathing back then. Then at the end i thought they were going to kiss but then subaru said "I love Emilia" i was so mad and very confused why there was no kiss scene at the end
The worst part is even if they ran away Emilia would still die and Puck would still kill Subaru by destroying the world
*SPOILER ALERT*
That is very incredibly unlikely. Puck doesn't actually succeed in freezing the earth. Reinhard shows up, and no diffs him if he tries. Felt was in the same area that Subaru and Ram were when Emilia dies, and Puck starts freezing everything. We know Felt is fine in those timelines. Subaru and Ram would be too.
Naa puck would have gotten stopped
Yall should read the sloth if story. its basically an alternate timeline where rem and subaru run away and get married. honestly its pretty entertaining and well written in its own right and its quite lengthy for a what if story
I’m right there with you Morgan.
It’s impossible to keep a physical reaction from coming out especially for me. Although not literal I had the feeling of falling to my knees in defeat from this scene my first watch through.
Ah yes, Puck, the Great Spirit of Fire.
Yes, fire, not ice.
morgons laughter 😍
"She has a life here"
Did you miss the last 3-4 episodes where that life is destroyed and will be in this timeline too if she stays and Subaru leaves? Everyone dies and she would too.
Speaking for my own self-esteem, I just assume all men feel how Subaru feels and just want someone like Rem.
i find it straight up funny that you guys get the purpose of "i love emilia" being said to Rem. But simply REFUSE to see what puck is.
People will go "Rem is overrated", and I think back to this episode and I just think that Rem is just the sweetest, and such a rock for Subaru.
And just like tht, the best girl cult was founded.
Subarus feeling for Rem is as strong for Emilia. He just doesnt know. But in the LN it clearly states that he lobes her
The REM the best fantasy woman ever then Aqua❤❤
I don't think there's a person alive good enough for Rem. Amazing character.
Rem best girl ✨️
This is the one
Rem Best girl!
The most brutal friend zone in anime history lol
but i always feel that subaru lowkey LOVE rem as well,,,,
Just letting you knwo this was the hardest episode for a lot of Re:zero fans
Fun fact: Even after these whole scene Subaru still sees himself as undeserving to be a hero and a weak, irredeemable piece of shit, but at least he want to try his best to be a hero for rem and everyone else because that is how rem sees him, and that what keeps him going for the rest of season 1. He even said it when
Spoiler (If you still have not watched season 2 episode 1):
Rem fell into the sleeping beauty disease, he said that "Without you rem, I couldn't even find the Subaru who can put on the tough guy act".
俺はエミリアが好きだ。／(^o^)＼ﾅﾝﾃｺｯﾀｲ✨
If subaru was like rudeus (Mushoku Tensei) he wouldn't have the problem of having to choose between the waifus xD
PAINNNNN
This was before Poly couples were a big thing, not that Emilia, Rem, or Subaru would even think about that scenario. Great reaction, and now I can’t wait for you guys to see Subaru shine after all the horrible shit that’s happened to him lol.
Rem and Subaru literally thought about it, the novels make it more explicit (especially later on in the arc) cause Subaru loves both of them.
yeah i guess we have to sit back and wonder would we rather subaru lied to rem and himself
Rem deserves better.
A lot of people get to this episode and seem to completely forget that Rem killed Subaru once, and tortured him another time. I love the fact that this anime did not take this moment to have Subaru begin his harem, as so many other anime protags would do given an oppurtunity like this. As for what happens in the LN/manga, I will never read them, and I doubt I will be the only one. For us, the anime is all there is, so we judge by what we see. Of course, a new season is coming, so there is always the possibility of a harem in the future, but for right now... Subaru did the right thing, he was honest. He did not take advantage of her feelings for him for selfish personal gratification. One of Subaru's many great moments in the anime, in my opinion.
The author wrote a story with rem accepting Subaru proposal and they have a happy life. Not canon to this story line but it is canon
You mean semi-canon, not canon. only certain information in it is canon
@@KoopaTroopaa69 semi canon yea that’s what i meant. It actually happens just not in his current route
Thing is subaru meet Emilia and she save him without knowing him that why he fall for her but rim first meet him and kill him so it not wrong to say he have a point and i like rim more than Emilia
hello, do you plan to watch Horimiya?
Although I understand Subaru's choice, this episode proved to me that Rem is and will forever be best girl ever & the Subaru needs his a$5 kicked.
REM truly loves Subaru but he loves Emilia its sad
This is one of my favorite anime episodes ever. It is rough, especially if you've been in either Subaru's or Rem's shoes before. But In the end Subaru couldn't smile when talking about his future with Rem here, but he could when he admitted his feelings for Emilia. Rem wants Subaru to smile, so it makes sense.
There is definitely a bit of "the female character xyz so the male character can progress", but this also helps us understand Rem, she's not just here so Subaru can progress.
I may don't like the show as whole, but this episode is my favourite.
Subaru does indeed love Rem. Deeply. But she's not his "true" love. Emilia is. Rem is 1A in Subaru's heart.
I loved the emotional honesty on display in ep18, and I truly think this ep featured one of Inori Minase's best performances in her career.
Years later, I'm still team Rem! 🥲
If I were Subaru, I'd also choose Emilia, but there has to have been a better way to let down Rem.
why he do that to her... lmagine if that happens to you lmao...
Some people need to rewatch the first 2 eps again to understand why Subaru chose and will always choose Emilia.
"I love Emilia."
Just NO.
That was Puck, huh literally said in the show. Also Puck IS A MALE
There is no best girl in this show but just one best man that's "Subaru" After what he has been through i don't give a damn about other characters he can choose whoever he want and do what ever he wants if he decides to pull up a rumbling and destroy the re zero world he can do it.. He been through hell and will go through it again. man has every known and unknown mental health issues no more questioning subaru's decisions..
Puck is a guy btw
Nah im srry it was wild asf to say it was easy to give up to the dude who has been dying over and over 😭
I swear subaru going to have two or more wifes in this series future
That's what we call Rem-zoned. I truly like Rem, but gotta accept the bond between Subaru and Emilia is almost like fate itself. It was always destined to like this. I know there are some "What if" stories about alternate choices of Subaru, but they are just mere thought. Reality never changes.
This episode made me think the reason the author named her "Rem" was because she's everyones dream girl.
Hmm i can think of another reason too, but i can’t remember exactly what it was…. 😂
@@KoopaTroopaa69high tier comedy👌
No matter how many times I see this I still get frustrated. I took a long break from the show and didn’t pick it back up till season 2.
I did as well between this the episode where he goes full cringe mode in the castle and then goes off on Emilia I couldnt watch anymore lol.
Rem is best girl. Subaru is a fool for always choosing Emilia
Love your content and commentary as per usual. Just one thing i have to say. Sam is so beautiful it kills me on the inside knowing my future gf/wife wont ever look as attractive and desirable as her. 😅
