Re:Zero is the deconstruction of an Isekai, and well executed. The MC isn't overpowered, he's emotional, he's vulnerable, and he's dependent on everyone else for help. I love anime like this.
If there's one complaint I could come up with, it's that the early arc concentrates quite heavily on this concept of give-and-take, something that's not easily translatable either by words or experience to people living in the U.S., I think, because our culture is just a lot more closely aligned with the idea of giving what you can, taking what you need, and letting God (or nature, or whatever your thing is) sort out the rest. So some of the conversations about who owes who for how many magical jelly beans start to sound repetitive, and you might find yourself wondering why these people can't let it go. But pretty soon the audience is treated to seeing exactly _why_ their mentalities about never falling into debt with this person, or that witch, or the supernatural entity over there that can CONTRACTUALLY OWN YOUR SOUL FOR HUNDREDS OF YEARS plays an important part in the theme of Subaru's continual deaths. Which, if nothing else, is always a delight to see, as the action when it happens is consistently over the top. Like, _somebody_ on that production team knows what the world looks like when you get so fucked up all of a sudden that your last coherent thoughts before passing out is something along the lines of _"that's strange, whose blood is all of this?"_
I can vouch that as the plot develops sufficient complexity, everything from the political intrigue in the dialogue to the glorious animation quality continues to improve. They know how to draw that fine line between realism, and the sorts of reality-busting anime bullshit that just has to be onscreen because it's awesome. That doesn't stop their depiction of entrails looking like _fucking entrails_ with all the detail you never hoped to see that up close and personal. So if you were put off by like a few of the early episodes, I'd recommend sticking around a bit longer. It'll hook you in ways you least expect--or at least, it did, for me, and I came into the show fully prepared to hate on it precisely because of all the hype. Now, I'm plenty satisfied, and ready to admit Re:Zero deserves the credit it gets.

Totally agree. And one of the few shows that display real character development. Subaru is sorta shit to start with but his journey brings him to be a better person, whilst also crushing him slowly and eating away at his sanity every step of the way.
Another awesome thing this show gets right is him being powerless to do alot of things on his own, hence the literally broken OP supporting characters, he is surrounded by people that could be considered gods compared to him in terms of powers and ability, giving emphasis on how he needs to learn to work/bargain and carefully manipulate the odds to his own favour.
Reinhardt literally has plot armour as his power (divine protection) and could wipe the nation from the world if he wanted to, the witches are each incredibly powerful in their own ways, even their lackeys like Betelgeuse prove to be truly formidable to people much stronger than Subaru.
A great story with probably the best example of world building and character development, with the right amount of spicy drama and the rare tease of action every now and then really hit it out of the park as a show.
My ONLY complaint about it is Fredricas beat transformation which I kinda cringed to see but, apart from that I couldn't complain at all about anything else.

Imo I think Re Zero is the best anime ever. I'm a huge fate fan and also love Death Note, Akame ga Kill and Promise Neverland. This show just blows all of those shows out of the water. Once starting season two it felt like every episode was the greatest anime episode ever until the next week. The story telling is just so good. I started reading the light novels and let me tell you I haven't read a book since 6th grade and reading these novels have been a blast so far and I'm only at the beginning of the story. This video explained the anime perfectly without giving away spoilers so good job on that.
"beggining" - what arc?
Re:zero gets better every arc.
Best anime for me too
The most depressing part is the feeling of isolation, he went through so much with the people around him, but only he knows. There are a bunch of meaningfull momments he had with Emilia or Ram that only he remembers, and he can never trully share his troubles with the people who want to support him. There are many episodes that seem to happen mostly inside his head, and I think that really shows how alone he feels
And season 2 ep 8 really shows just how much the weight of that feeling he lift off when he is able to talk about it with echidna, it was such a wonderful moment.
That’s why Echidna is best girl 👑
It’s so depressing when he tries to save someone but while trying to find a way to do it people just look down on him, hate him, or just feel disappointed in him. I felt so bad for him when Emilia kept dying and every time he came back she would just be mad at him and scold him saying that he was damaging her reputation also how every other candidate would make fun of him, put him aside, or lie to him for their own scheme even at his most desperate. Those episodes hurt badly
@@MuffinMan.11 Definitely not omegalul
THE NEWMAKER even if her intentions were bad, she still gave Subaru an outlet, closure, and opportunity, he’s still grateful to her like how he is to Satella or the other witches.

I will go feral if we ever get to see Arc 6 animated. For me, this is genuinely a show that has gotten better with each Arc, Arc 5 wasn’t as good as Arc 4 imo but that’s mostly because there’s a lot of action and reading action kinda sucks but i feel like it translates well into anime, so i’m sure it’ll be amazing too. Growing up with this anime makes me feel like i’m seeing a future classic in the making
I'm about 80% of the way through Arc 5 of the web novel, and I agree that the action would probably be better in animated form. I've heard that Arc 6 is fucking fantastic, so I can't wait to get to it.
I’ll be honest, as much as I want to see Re Zero come to an end, I really want the author to write it out completely, even if it takes over 10 more years. I’m willing to wait that long so the WN/LN and anime can run its proper course and end properly. I want Re:Zero to actually conclude as a top tier story that rivals that of Attack on Titan and various Western stories in terms of story telling.
@@soap9277 how’s arc 6? I’m about to read arc 5 and I’m curious to see if arc 6 lived up to the hype?
@@slice768 I finished it maybe half a year ago after dropping it for a few months, and it definitely lived up to the hype! Idk if it's my favorite arc, but it's definitely contending with arc 4 imo. I made it a few chapters into arc 7 before I stopped reading again. It wasn't bad, but I started a new job and started college, so I just haven't had much time to read it since then. I'm definitely gonna have to pick it back up soon.
Edit: Arc 6 is a slow burn at first, but it picks up pretty quickly, then it gets really good. I'm not gonna spoil anything for you, but there's some great stuff in this arc. Look forward to it! Arc 5 is really good too, so you should have a good time with that one as well. A lot more of a slow burn than most of the others, but still good.

Why are you roleplaying?
The reason re:zero doesn't have so many flashy fights is because subaru isn't your typical strong and mighty protagonist, and in my opinion, that's a part what makes this show so good. Subaru is a simple human, with human flaws and clear weaknesses, allowing you to relate more to all the suffering he is going through and magnifying the satisfaction received from when he solves a difficult situation.
White Whale battle was cool as fuck though
Hes too weak tbh. The dude cries more than i did when i was 6

Charlie reviewing Re:Zero... It's an honor to live in this golden age
I am so delighted there are so many people really enjoying the show. I was compeltely enchanted by it the very first episode I saw back in 2016, I even made a note in GDrive to my future self to rewatch it but it proved unnessecary since I would come back to it every so often and even read every translation on the this incredibly huge piece of literary fiction (I've once read that in character count, it's about seven times the length that the whole Harry Potter series has).
I just want to point out one thing that occurred to me early on and has continued to stick out for me after the second season came out.
Subaru is defined by the discrepancy between his self-image (impaired by his low self-esteem) and the judgment others have of him (most of them, even the top dogs of society, view him in an extremely positive light despite his well-known shortcomings). I have a thesis that the Return By Death curse could be understood as a manifestation of this dissonant state of mind he holds: In objectifying himself and his life as a means to an end for others, he violates his own human dignity (Objectification is the core violation human dignity attempts to shield against, at least as Kant understood it). This ultimate and most extreme 'self-sacrifice' proves his own worthlessness to the real world. It's a self-fulfilling prophecy. (Obviously, I know that this is not what the creator was thinking about or that it is at least very unlikely, but bear with my pseudo-deep interpretation).
Subaru feels terrible guilt and embarrassment when confronted with honest praise, affection, and approval because he feels like his Return By Death tricks them into imagining him as a hero. I am tempted to go into a full tangent about his psychology which I find very intriguing but the main point is that his tragedy is one of self-imposed and unjust (for he is an outsider to the world) suffering for the sake of others. One could even say martyrdom (Wanting to avoid religious implications, I'll leave out the obvious parallel to Christ. I'm not a religious person but I find this very obvious parallel worth exploring.). Because of the nature of his suffering (dying over and over again), the challenge the hero must overcome is not to survive a difficult situation (it is more or less clear that he will manage somehow in the end) but by prevailing in spirit and not surrendering the concept of human dignity itself. One might think that a challenge that one is guaranteed to overcome (infinite tries = 100% chance of winning) is no real challenge. But this is a mistake: Re Zero shows that Death in some sense, is something merciful. There is the unspoken agreement that everyone has to try hard in their lives but only until their dead. The dead are exempt from the suffering of existence. To Subaru, this agreement that is universal to all life throughout the entirety of history is reversed: To him, death only marks a new beginning. He becomes isolated from the sphere of living and every time he is forced to ask himself the most fatal questions: "I, who is so useless and leeches off the false esteem I tricked others into holding for me, am I not morally obliged to use my life for the sake of saving others? Isn't the most meaningful action I can take to die for the sake of those dear to me? Isn't this the only way I can fulfill their expectations? Won't they love me then? Won't my life become meaningful?" And, worst of all, it's even the truth! He is, in fact, otherwise completely useless. In the harsh and extreme world of the royal election, everyone around him is basically a superhuman, he, on the other hand, is a run-of-the-mill social outcast, first isolated in his own world by his poor self-esteem, now isolated in the new world by his poor self-esteem as it has manifested itself in the real world (Return by Death). Thus, one can make a very good case that the best (rational) outcome for everyone is that he gives in to the temptation and uses his life as a disposable means to achieve the happiness of others (this is Echidona's Greed Route [Kasaneru]). Instead, he cannot bring himself to abandon the value of his life, despite the rational argument against holding onto it. As Charlie points out, suicide doesn't come easy to him, and not just because of his mortal fear but also because it would be confirming Echidona's thesis that his life is meaningless. And we can see that the people around him share the sentiment he innately knows, as every time he disgraces himself, they feel estranged and disgusted (notably Emilia who couldn't understand why he would go to such lengths time and time again, Priscilla when he asked for her help, Otto when he tried doing everything alone, etc.). In his existential struggle, Subaru proves to the reader/viewer time and time again that the main goal is not achieving an end (as rationalism dictates) but that some man is moral-bound by certain principles that restrict the means he can change in pursuing his ends and the most important, essential and inevitable principle he is charged with affirming is that of the unconditional value of human life and the fact that it is even not available to free disposition to the person living it themselves.
Subaru is not a Hero by the virtue of integrity, bravery. He is a hero by virtue of the fact that he accepts and faces the most gruesome and unjust suffering imaginable accompanied by all the doubts and resentments it generates against fate itself; all in the name of doing something meaningful.
I know this whole thing sounds very pretentious and even I myself was reminded of the Rick and Morty copypasta but I just had to get this outta my system, it's been literally brewing in me for years now. I hope if anyone reads this they'll see it as what it is: Just a fanboy babbling about his favorite show.
finally someone fucking gets it. i love the type of people that didnt get pissed after ep 18 because they understood subaru.
subaru tries hard because of his past failures and has deluded himself to thinking hes worthless.
this series is just reverse escapism with advice. this series shows us a protag that seems like a mirror for us and puts this protag in an isekai that ironically reality checks him frequently despite the fact that the isekai genre is purely escapism.
the show tells us what to do and what not to do. it highlights the deadly sins and shows us a better path instead of giving in to these sins.
subaru is a mirror for the audience and thats why everytime something bad or good happens to him we either relate to it or feel thankful for him. and this is why "Love yourself more" was so impactful. because the audience also needed those words.
RBD is semantics for our hidden burdens and insecurity and thats why when subaru finally released his inner problems we felt joy as well.
i love ReZero because its like the reverse version of escapism. we got baited into thinking this is gonna be another power fantasy but in reality its subtle advice with accompanying examples dressed as a "uwu cute anime girls" series.

The thing I really like about this series is how suspenseful it is. For the most part, I know that the main character isn't going to die halfway through the season. In re:zero it's even less of an issue, because Subaru can restart, but in my experience that is what makes the suspense. It's not about Subaru dying, but about him dying and losing all the progress he had made since his last reset. Beating the bad guy but potentially dying and having to start from square one is suspenseful in it's own way.
Yes mate I feel the same way oh and the drama too
For me the reason time travel animes get to me is that these characters will have heartfelt conversations and really grow character development all for it to be erased.

The only bad thing (if you can even say it's a bad thing) is the OP/ED only play once every blue moon and they're absolute bangers. Even with 26+ minutes episodes there is no room for the songs and the episodes always end on a cliffhanger that always keeps me coming back for more
Even with the 26 min episodes they still cut a bunch of stuff.
But you can feel that the staff behind the show really likes the source material.

But you knows it’s gonna be a hype episode if they skip it
I think people underestimate how well Subaru is done as a character. The biggest complaint is how cringey he acts around people especially Emilia, but the thing is he's just a shut-in dude who hasn't tried at anything. The whole point of Subaru is that he starts from zero not just with no identity/possessions in Lugnica but also from an experience and maturity perspective. He begins by pretending to be a hero, and slowly develops into a real one.
and yeah if he didn't have RBD to restore him every time he would be dead and gone, but on the reverse side he could have run away and lived in safety (and wealth based on his otherworldly knowledge) but instead chose to keep trying to save those he cares about despite the extreme PTSD and all manner of literal mind-breaking trauma he accumulates.
Even despite that I absolutely love the theories on what the big finale twist will be regarding him and witch, It all seems so very detached and spaced out in the first couple seasons but then things start slowly falling into place.
Being cringe was never a valid criticism to re:zero anyway
At a certain point in the anime, I despised Subaru as a person, which made me love him as a character, because at that point I could see how much care was put in writing Subaru and where the writer intended to go with him, and I was really glad those themes were addressed in an anime.
@@bouboulroz same, especially after we find out that his eccentric behaviour was backed by being outshone by his amazing father. His outbursts were less about just being a loser character but applying his typical defense mechanism from a lack of self esteem to a new world that was unforgiving and constantly dangerous.

Rezero can be extremely fucked up, especially s1ep15.
Just a warning for those who haven't seen it yet and have weak stomachs, prepare yourself for s1ep15. It gets brutal.
I watched all the available episodes in the last 24 hours and yeah this show is so fucked up but it’s good. Btw this was my very first anime
LOL, wait till season 3 drops, if they still make 25 episodes in the future, the darkest scenes of rezero will be presented there. If my estimations are correct, it is possible that they will adapt Arc 5 and half of Arc 6 into season 3. Which means, it could potentially be the best season of Rezero.
@@christrack Congratulations
There's no turning back
Can’t believe Charlie, a pro gamer and wife stealer didn’t call return by death respawning
Reloading describes it better than respawning
Subaru doesn't respawn, he loads a checkpoint. Respawn would mean he returns after his death and everyone is still dead.
Respawning means you died but when you come back everything you already did already happened. For example if you say kill 30 monsters and the 31st kills you, when you respawn there aren't gonna be 31 monsters. There will be one. Reloading is the correct term here
SIARAD Label thank u for this very cool
No he’s just resting everything meaning like going back in time
Also, what's really cool about Re:Zero is that there are plot points where Subaru's morality is being tested. He has to choose over the path of sin or virtue to get an outcome he desires. And obviously, Subaru chose all the correct paths (so far). Also during Subaru's birthday, which is April 1st, the author actually writes these IF stories and it shows what would've happened if Subaru chose the wrong path.
シLink do you know where I could read these alternatives it sounds really interesting

S3 confirmed!
A new moist record. Just let that sink in that this show is considered a masterpiece after 2 SEASONS. Even legendary animes like Aot or Hxh weren't considered masterpieces until their later seasons. Re Zero is the goat and I really hope my favorite arc ( arc 6) will get animated one day. Also for those are wanting more action in Re Zero, worry not. Arc 5's got that covered.
Agreed

A few things to add to Charlies praise, It also doesn’t rely on fanservice and has some of the deepest most emotional dialogue I have heard in anime. One episode is entirely a single conversation between two characters, and it remains to be one of the single greatest anime episode I have ever seen. So fantastic. Please watch it if you haven’t
Try Monogatari for good dialogue
@@AbderrahmenLahyani Agreed but Re:Zero dialogue and Gatari's dialogue are really different and great in their own ways. For me Re:Zero dialogue is really great because of how much author thinks about characters emotions, and fleshes them out in their words. I read WN after watching season 1 and now watching season two, i'm amazed at how great the VA's and animators managed to capture atmoshpere of the moments, reasons behind the words and reactions. First trial and Beatrice scene broke my heart into thousand pieces once again even though I already knew what are they gonna say.
That was the best dialogue ever.
Which episode are you talking about?
And ANOTHER thing, the voice acting is SO REAL. You can especially tell when Subaru breaks down crying, and it sounds like real, ugly crying. Genuinely the best VA I have ever heard of
You know it's a masterpiece when even what is supposed to be its prologue (1st season) is simply AMAZING.
Anime Japan is in a few hours! Season 3 basically confirmed!
October this year
I forget the episode number, but my favorite episode is when Subaru breaks after one of his deaths and then him and Rem talk for half an hour. I was crying the entire time.
Yea, that episode was truly beautiful.
Ep 18, my favorite Episode in Season 1
Really says a lot about how well-written the characters are when an entire episode with Subaru and Rem talking is one of the most emotional ones
Best episodes in S1 are def 15 and 18
@Carlos Lopez its not alway about best girl. God i hate that term.. can give Blossom to trash anime but goddam it can ruin good shows.

Bro you need to Literally be a Psychopaths to understand
@@jc9622 I can see that, my experiences have been different though. Everyone I know talks about ReZero endlessly, moreso than AoT even (which I do agree AoT is most likely more talked about), even some people I have on Facebook from high school I've even seen some of them who are just mainstream anime fans talk about it. I think the show is a pretty big thing even outside of the anime fandom. Not that that's a bad thing, I thoroughly enjoyed season 1 and season 2 had its moments for me, but it just seems to be the most talked about thing ever atm. Suppose it varies though since there seems to be that disconnect in our experiences.

Also Subaru is a completely average human in this world. He doesn't really "fight" with strength, he has to use his mind and Return by Death to outsmart his opponents, maybe even circumventing a fight altogether.

He cant fight garfiel and he needs him on his side
He cant fight the assassins because theyll dismantle him without hesitation

Subaru is actually pretty strong (to human standards) i mean he kept up with elsa who is a literal trained assassin who knows nothing other than killing for like 10 seconds before getting hit and his pain tolerance is INSANE.
the only super power he acquired so far is good communication skills ... which really makes him better than 99% of anime protagonists when you think about it.
he really sucked at it in the beginning too.

He by self felt arrogant by let what happened this loop. This loop showed how much "blah blah" cares continuing on in the next few ep to break your heart a Massive turning point for Subaru and us.

A big thing about Subaru, and why he doesn't just spam his ability (although he may have done something similar in an IF story, *cough cough*, go read them). It's because dying fucking hurts, and it never gets easier to die. Subaru feels the same amount of pain no matter how many times he dies. So when he ever considers using it, he's putting a lot of things at stake in his mind.
And the transition from death to checkpoint is instant, so when he respawns he feels it slightly still for a moment.
Never any easy ways to die as well, so you have to get creative with gravity or sharp implements
and there's no lag when he dies and comes back to the present, he still feels the pain which fucking sucks, it's why at times he losses his mind
@@SapphireAura subaru went from a kid on a bed watching anime to getting killed over and over having to fix everyones problem and going through mental trauma at this point it only gets worse
Plus, the fact the checkpoint is unknown and possibly screwing over everyone in the timeline he left behind.
Even when you know that everything can be reset, the stakes never really fall flat like other “time travel” stories or when deaths are retconned. It’s always tense enough, while also cooling down often enough to not make it tiring.
especially right now (anime)
I would say the only other one with the same weight to it is Steins;Gate

I never would've thought Charlie would review Re:Zero. I am happy as hell.
Re:Zero is kinda like a chess game, Subaru always has to come up with plans/moves to save his freinds and when a plan doesn't work and he dies by either killing himself or being killed he then learns from his previous mistakes and comes up with other ways to solve those problems to protect the ones he cares and loves.
Also just because he can come back to life doesn't mean he doesn't feel the pain from his deaths. He feels everything which makes killing himself or dieing truely horrific and very cruel. Subaru has a lot of guts and always puts others first.
Re:Zero reminds me a lot of Evangelion. They're similar in that they're "anti-anime", or "punk anime", or something along those lines. They strive to be the emotional antithesis of large swathes of anime culture. Where the vast majority of anime is lowest common denominator escapism that appeals to base desires in order to cater to otaku and hikikomori, these series swim against the grain, undertaking deep dives into the dark parts of consciousness. They warn the viewer about escapism, about the too-common patterns of self-hatred, about believing the poison we tell ourselves.
It's like Holden Caulfield in The Catcher in the Rye. All my classmates hated Holden because he was unlikable and whiny, and I was confused because I thought that was the entire point. Shinji in Eva is a whiny, mopey, depressed teenager who self-isolates, shirks from responsibility, and ends up hurting himself and the world around him in the process. Subaru is very similar. Episode 18 really had me fucked up because he just elaborated for 15 minutes about what a piece of shit he is and how he hates himself. If you can't relate to that, you're lucky. But we're all lucky that there are artists who are able to coherently and effectively communicate these stories, these warnings about ourselves. You can't run away from yourself.
Shiji and Subaru are characters that criticize their genre
Like in most mecha where there are kid pilots but then evangelion showed that it's much harder if realistically happens
People now appreciate shinji after the last movie
Subaru will be next

I like this certified funny comment.
CJXD360 YT yes no maybe so
It's funny seeing people complain that Subaru doesn't use his super power. It's a curse, not a super power.
When I first watched it I didn’t know anything about the return by death. It was the best emotion
The best thing Re:Zero does is that it never gives the audience the feeling that "oh whatever, this bad thing happened but subaru can just die again". Probably because he usually accomplishes a lot of events in one life and dying during one event forces him to overcome difficult obstacles that he may have gotten lucky overcoming in his previous life.
Gautham Dixit
You say that but one of my best friends actually doesn’t like Subaru because he “doesn’t just kill himself whenever he messes up”
Maybe then you should recommend your friend SSS Class Suicide Hunter, who has the same ability, going back by 24 hours when he dies. But in this novel (yes, its a novel) the guy isn't afraid to kill himself again and again. It desensitizes dying in a way. I think it currently has 70 chapters or so. I got bored of reading it.

@@parhelionhalo Subaru is a god like character, only because he has as many flaws as he has virtues, i really like him, and re zero would be nothing without him
Exactly and when he do want him to die, he doesn’t. He has to live with the consequences. Like losing Emilias trust, he could’ve just killed himself but that would’ve been the easy way out. He only does it as a last resort like Charlie said.
