- Re:Zero explores one of the aspects of time travel and time loop stories that often gets overlooked: the burden of remembering. As timelines get reset, Subaru is the only one to remember several important events in his life, which causes psychological strife and problems in his relationships. Let's take a look at the way the series handles memory and how horrifying it can be.

This video is marvelous. It's interesting that Subaru's issues are almost a perfect inversion of Emilia's. Subaru remembers moments that nobody else does; Emilia can't remember what happened before she was frozen. Subaru lived a complex and messy life that he wanted to escape from; Emilia's life was basically perfect before it was taken from her, and afterwards she desperately wanted to get that back. They are incredibly different characters who are united in their feelings of isolation, and this video explains that perfectly.
Yeah, what makes it even better is that their opposing character colour schemes represent that perfectly Black and Gold, with White and Purple
@@tmlarkynado7604 Oh certainly! Emilia and Subaru's designs are almost complete inversions of each other. Subaru has short, black, hair that goes upward, while Emilia has long, white, hair that goes downward. As you said, Subaru wears black and orange, while Emilia wears white and purple. Their designs compliment each other so well, because they're the complete opposites of each other.
This show is also about loneliness.
Subaru feels extremely lonely because every relationship he has with everyone… Fades away.
The best parts are lost. The oni talk with the maids, for example.
Emilia also feels lonely because she has no one to relate to anymore
If I remember correctly, Tappei(sole author) said that the painting/mural actually exists within the Re Zero world. Which raises so many questions
Do you happen to have an idea in which Q&A Tappei said that? I'm having trouble finding that.
Where is that Q&A?
i haven't read the novels, but that might as well be foreshadowing that subaru is not alone with his memories all along

@@Re_Vwouldn't the witch of jealousy remember those other timelines as well since she is the one that gave him return by death?
Bro really said in conclusion, Subaru is Jesus...
I know this series gets memed and put on the back burner for newer shonen, but it's underlying critiques on self-righteousness , its exploration of mental isolation, and burden of memory is heartbreaking at times. The screams & crying of Subaru after relentless and often fruitless struggles are haunting to say the least. (Rem's torturous killing & subaru trying in vain to save and free the Sanctuary countless times are some of the most jarring examples).
It’s a predicament that only exists in fiction, yet it’s a damn haunting one. You do good job in showing how unique Re:Zero is, despite being based on hackneyed tropes like time loop stories and isekais. I’m glad you also mentioned the mobile game, I would have never thought the story of a mobile game would go that hard.
Subaru had to remember so much that the fate has led him to forgetting (Arc 6 vibes, you know).
Memories are such an integral part of Re:Zero. Although lately it has caused controversy over a certain character..
Can you plz elaborate? That controversy thing
it's spoiler if u didn't read arc 7@@lgamingnp3612
@@lgamingnp3612 Its something relating to arc 6-8, so below are spoilers.

One of the archbishops of gluttony, Louis Arneb, got their memery erased or something and in arc 8, Subaru believed she was and could be a new person and named her Spica. Some people, however, are upset since archbishops are pure evil and caused harm. This was addressed on the story, obviously, but its still controversial.
@@saviornogame thank you for the explanation. I have just started reading arc 6 so i was curious. Thank you
@@lgamingnp3612oh, neat. Have you read the side stories?
The fact that he was a car makes this 1000x more impressive
Amazing video, something also relevant to the concept of the burden of remembering is How satella says that Subaru saved her in s2 ep 13. Just like in ep 13 of the first season (I just realized they're equivalent episodes thats wild) where Emilia says she doesn't understand how she has saved subaru, Subaru says the same to Satella. There's a definite parallel here and the implications it could have for the series as a whole are tremendous.
Thanks for bringing this up! I hadn’t even considered that but it’s a great point and it would thematically fit very well if Satella underwent something similar.
Subaru: Im living in a mansion with a beautiful girl and maids
Kazuma: You damn lucky
Subaru: want to trade?
Kazuma: if you insist..(sucker..)
(A few loops later)
Kazuma: (for once in his life he thought Auqua wasn’t so bad)
I remember sharing the first video like crazy when it came out (i think it was titled "Why Re:Zero Feels So Different")
sad to see it's gone.
Thanks for sharing it around! It will be reuploaded with some minor tweaks as soon as the copyright strike on the channel expires.
The video is now back up!
@@thescreentakes
appreciated!
The Bible hits different if you read it like an isekai.
Fucking spectacular comment
Wait now I have questions
huh
That doesn't even make sense
Hol’ hip, let him cook.
It's incredible to see some of the points in the video be explored extensively in the future arcs of Re:Zero such as Arc 6.
Re:Zero is my favorite anime of all time. It just rewards going deeper into the material
Guys we figured it out. Subaru is Jesus.
Subaru died for your sins
@@RingxWorld Think about it. He performs miracles (killing two mabeasts that plagued the world for generations within one week), He comes back to life, He brings back the dead (using rbd to save emilia). (John 18:6) When Subaru said, "I am he,"
@@acoustic225 it was very hard to notice that at first but Subaru is indeed someone people can revere to as a "saviour" more than a hero or maybe like you described it a " Messiah figure"
At the beginning Subaru " forgiving" nature was shown to everyone, especially at season one when he forgave Rem and Ram, but what I like here is that tappei didn't paint Subaru as this overly good guy because under the excuse that this is he's nature or something, but rather one of the biggest factors that plays into this was Subaru low self-esteem and he's hatred twords himself, Subaru doesn't see himself equal to Rem and Ram, he thinks of them as far superior to he's weak self
For him, the one who should be blamed shall be him simply because they lived their life just fine before he invaded their lives plus he acted suspicious around them so they will defend their home right? This is not the thought of a very pure hearted guy but rather a conclusion that you can't reach unless you have zero consideration for your wellbeing
What I love after this is that RBD started to show Subaru the black and white in people and that in reality only few people can truly be called unredeemable, Subaru saw hope, a hope to guide and help these people basically Saving them heart and soul, this way of thinking is he's driving force and the one he relies on, even now in the latest arc it didn't waver in fact it becomes stronger
Everyone Subaru met changed for the better and found their purpose or maybe reached it, Rem was saved, Emilia was guided, Garfiel was freed from he's fear, Frederica is now with her brother and he helps them to get along in the SS too, Otto has a new friend and a new purpose heck even rosewaal rever to Subaru as he's " hope" while puck described Subaru as a " poisonous hope" so sweet but it can kill you, and the worst part? You just can't get enough of it
Subaru being revered as " hope" or being seen as one is an opinion many people share of him, Subaru gives chances even for the sinners, if he loved you then he will always protect you and all what you need to do to get he's love is to believe in him and love him back, even if that's love wasn't that deep as long as it's there then he will do the impossible to save you
However Subaru is a human, and thus he can't save everything, the world re-writes itself many times and he's forced to just sit there and watch, he knows what other people don't, and thus he keeps it a secret of them because even if they did Know they won't understand, the corruption of RBD that caused him to have such a mentality plus he's heart and problem that belongs to a human is just one if the best if not the best conflict in the story for me
lol
Fantastic rezero vid. Subaru's memories end up isolating him from the others time and again. I hope that there will be at least one person who doesn't want to manipulate Subaru that will learn the truth and help him out by the end of all this.
cant wait for this guy to see the hall of memories arc
I’ve read Arc 6 and it’s incredible. Very excited to see it adapted in the anime.
@@thescreentakesout of curiosity, have you read arc 7?
@@commercialcritic4676 I have! Almost up to date on Arc 8 too, just a few chapters behind.
@@thescreentakesI love seeing Subaru just winning at life in this arc. Dude gets a power boost in that state he's in for whatever reason. Confidence truly does wonders
Subaru is about to pull, "Did i ever told you the definition of insanity is?"
If you ever make a part two, its likely memory loss and twisted memoeries is also why Satella remembers and loves Subaru so much when he doesn't realize who she is.
Satella is to Subaru as Subaru is to Emilia both Emilia and Subaru are confused by why some stranger loves them so much and therefore reject that love.
A more fitting titled for this show would be: Re:Zero Lost Memories or perhaps "Twisted Memories"
NGL, I've never thought of that but it makes so much more sense
Let's gooo another Rezero video!!! Yet again a fantastic video. Also impressive editing.
I have watched many videos about Re:Zero and Natsuki Subaru, but this one shows the most important thing in this series. Thanks for this beautiful analysis.
This channel is going to grow with these quality of storytelling and breakdown
I think this is why arc 6 (season 3)is the most compelling for Subarus characters arc, slight spoilers:
I think that Subaru losing his memories of everything so far is much scarier than remembering considering what he does and thinks as the kid he used to be
I remember when echidna shows to subaru all the parallel timeline when he died and all of his freinds are sad and depressed give up on moving on ..making subaru lonlier ,showing that even subaru kills him self for his freinds is not enough
Not only just remembering but the growth of his relationships with others have to be essentially re done how do you act like your just gettting to know a person during your first time meeting when its your 3rd+ time wail subarus lash out at emila durring arc 3 was wrong you get were he is coming from he feels so much closer to emilia then they actually are because he has known her so much longer then she has known him and its not as easy to put behind him because he loves Emilia your not going to want to move on from a meanfull interaction with a person you care so much about. Re zero is such a dark and horrifying story in so many unique ways but its positive messages and well earned character growth make it special

i was looking through my old downloads and found a rip from the end of september of your first re zero video; i wanted to check how your channel was doing, and having completely missed it on the subscription list, i thought it'd been deleted--it's nice to see that's not the case
after a lot of hopping through the internet to get back here (and seeing as the first video is back down again), i feel incredibly lucky to have that recording
Thanks so much for your interest! I’ll be reuploading that video soon once the copyright strike on the channel expires, just with a few changes so I don’t get hit again. Glad you enjoyed it that much!
@@thescreentakes
hope you can escape the allegations this time lol
happy new year!
The video is now back up on the channel! Thanks for your continued interest
@@thescreentakes
hopefully you don't get any more practice de-copyright-striking videos
i'll give it a rewatch while it's still new in hopes the algorithm likes that
we're so back 💪🤠
re:zero referencing christianity while also going "well this is a whole lot of immature bullshit" is amazing tbh.
I love that the message is about caring for others through self love, I think the show gets misrepresented a bit sometimes cause it's popular and the isekai genre is both overrepresented and has had a lot of "all style no substance" shows. And honestly while I was still only in season 1 I was enjoying it but as kind of a guilty pleasure, I knew something resonated but I couldn't really get why. Season 2 made me understand the show really had something to say and was doing it with purpose, the show is genuinely great.
if you think about it you cant blame subaru for the decissions he made, since he's still in his teens were he is still too emotional and inexperince to make good choices
i just started giggling uncontrollably when i saw this video in my recommended
finally someone has said outloud that Subaru is Jesus Christ
Amazing video as usual,What happened to other video, Anny change of it coming back,i really REALLY liked that one, it was great video pinpointing why re zero feels unique and is kind of hard to understand.
Thanks so much! Unfortunately that video was removed and the whole channel was hit with a strike. It will definitely be re uploaded in the future after a bit of tweaking, just waiting until the strike expires to not risk it again.
@@thescreentakes Thanks for your efforts,Hoping no more strikes
It seems to me no, no one will find out about RBD, because he himself must endure his suffering with his head raised, because it doesn’t matter that in any case in life, sometimes it’s better not to know some things
This video gives me chills.
Excited for what the direction of the story go in season 3
Amazing video and analysis of one of the aspects that makes re zero good. What kind of voice changer is this in 3:39
Can u tell me? I need it for my video
Amazing video! The Season three trailer should be out in five days will you be making a video on it?
Depending on what they show off, I’d definitely be up for making a video about it!
This give ideas of Satella theory in which she is the only one remembered Subaru but he don’t remember her we seen Subaru journey from day one but not day zero.
Oh damn that makes sense
Great video can't understand I first see it now good job
Wasn’t expecting “Subaru is Jesus Christ” at the end
Nice video btw
Excellent video essay! Thank you. New Sub.
If Subaru somehow learns to turn water into wine. He would officially be the Jesus Christ of Anime to me.
Great video man
Loved the intro ❤ hope ur channel gets more recognition
The one thing i hate about subaru is that he and Stella are exactly same. They are doing everything in name love and wanting to other people to understand them which they never asked for
The difference is that Emilia is accepting of it and isn't terribly negatively affected by it when Subaru was literally brought to that world not by his own will, and given the power to return by death and remember every ounce of pain and struggle through the process of his progression. Sure they're both doing it to "save" certain people but Subaru is purely trying to keep them all alive and doesn't wish any harm upon them. They would've literally all died so many times if Subaru wasn't there so he sees it as he HAS to protect them. If you were about to be shot by a mugger and someone comes and saves you would you be angry and yell at them because you didn't ask them to? Bad argument
I think you completely misunderstanding
I think theres one thing i need to clarify though. About Subaru's past loops. The past loop's world doesn't really dissappear as if it never existed. In S2 it finally got confirmed by Echidna that those past loops experienced by Subaru may or may have not happened. Of course it's a 50/50, I'm not completely sure myself however, Satella did not knew what Subaru saw during the 2nd Trial, so maybe the previous loop's world may still continue and not just dissappear and delete itself but anyhow Trial 2 truly has heavily improved Subaru on how he uses his life and not to pointlessly sacrifice himself to save others like how he did with Rem, this event truly helps subaru to notice that people cares for him and mourn for his death too.
another banger video btw W
Sad that the previous video is down
It’s finally back up now that the strike on the channel expired
man, good video ❤
Goes to show how much it means to him when he told it all to Echidna
Its almpst like life is too complicate to have pure bad amd good guys.
Its all shades of grey
I can't believe they deleted your Re:zero metamodernism video. Is there reupload somewhere
The strike finally expired and it’s now back up in the channel!
Subaru is new Gen Okabe Rintarou
NOOOOOOOOOO. Where is your previous Re Zero video?
It was removed for copyright, but video is now back up on the channel!
If we just would get those seasons faster. Its a shame how slow it goes, but I guess every realse speed is better then No Game no Life
Damn i turn the same age as Subaru today 😂
Wait...
Who's Rem?
Is there anywhere i can download lost in memories game witg an english download. I found downloads but they are all in a language that isnt english
sweet!
Nice
By the way that mural in the church is in the sin archbishop's church that has been confirmed to exist somewhere in the re: zero world. (Confirmed by the author in a Q n A)
Also Subaru is the the head of the church but I don't want to ruin season 3 for non web novel readers.
Where was it said he is the head of the church(I don't mind spoilers)
@@user-iu2sf1pf4f so the sage Flugal (my have just misspelled his name) is said to be the head of the church and the witch cult there purpose was to protect the elves. This was mentioned in an Q n A by Tapi.
In arc 6 the current sage Sharla is the daughter of Flugal and identified Subaru as her father and master as she has to obey her mother and father her masters.
@therealwildace2025 but they said the face of the sage on the coin doesn't look like anything and also shaula was created by witch of gluttony fluguel is her master but I don't think she refers to him as her father
Of course they wouldn't show Flugal's face yet they've been hiding it for some reason, they released tarot cards with re:Zreo characters and locations on them including Flugal from behind all we got to see was his black spiky hair like Subaru.
Also If I remember correctly in the web novel Sharla tells Subaru that he is her father but he doesn't believe her and denies it because to him he couldn't possibly be her father.
In arc 7 it's revealed Sattela is sealed inside of Subaru's soul when it's weaked and her shadows come out he can also control them though he was not in full control and destroyed a city. The only way the witch could be sealed inside of Subaru is if he was around 400 years ago as Flugal.
And I know Sharla was made with Gluttony's Authority with Flugal's influence somehow(has not been revealed how yet) so not really a by blood daughter.
@@therealwildace2025 satella isn't sealed inside him more like she lives in him rent free since she is the one who summoned him and gave him RBD
