Re:Zero Has The Most Frustrating Isekai Protagonist, But Season 3 Reminded Me Why That's A Great Thing
Re: Zero -Life In Another World- is a series whose protagonist has been the subject of a lot of criticism, but the third season's premiere has jogged my memory as to why he's great, and it has to do with why Re: Zero itself is great. Re: Zero is, on its face, an isekai. The protagonist, Subaru Natsuki, is sucked into another world and given a bizarre ability that allows him to rewind time upon his death.
Falling in love and otherwise falling in with Emilia, a candidate in the royal elections for the next king of Lugunica, Subaru finds himself in the middle of a much broader conflict led by the Witch Cultists. There, he has to mobilize his time-reset ability to change fate. Along the way, he becomes acquainted with faces that have transcended Re: Zero to become universally recognizable in anime communities: maids Rem and Ram, feminine catperson Ferris, tiny librarian Beatrice, and the humble former merchant Otto. Protecting these people becomes his purpose in life as Re: Zero unfolds.

Subaru's Role Subaru wasn't isekaid? (Theory - Minor Spoilers)
Minor light novel spoilers up to arc 5!
"Remember who you are. Remember what you have to do. Remember the words you must exchange, in the world where you belong."
-Satella to Subaru in arc 3
I've been thinking alot about this recently... Was Subaru really isekaid? It's been on my mind for quite some time. There are many things that seem "odd" to me. Let's go over some stuff...
Why wasn't Echidna curious about Subaru's world?
Why is it that the witch of greed didn't want to know more about Subaru's world, or did she simply not express it in front of Subaru? Perhaps she read his memories and through that learned all she could? This just seems really strange to me. There have been mentions of other people being isekaid into the Re:Zero world and Echidna might have gotten information out of them but it still strikes me as very very strange. It's almost like Echidna knows everything she needs to know about the other world... I'll come back to this later in this theory.
Why did Subaru get pulled into the world and for what reason did Satella fall in love with him?
If it's true, what Satella said, that Subaru did save her and
After many people telling me to continue watching Re:Zero because it “gets better in the second half”, I decided “fuck that” and dropped the series. My main, if not only issue with the anime was that its protagonist, Natsuki Subaru, was too much of a loud-mouth, brain-dead, unbearable loser. Two years later, and not much seems to have changed…except that I ended up finishing the series for reasons even I don’t quite understand.
Everyone loves a good redemption story. Under typical circumstance, no one in their right mind dislikes it when a bad person becomes a good person. I am no exception to this proclivity to forgive and forget those whom genuinely turn over a new leaf. That being said, I just can’t bring myself to like Subaru. For me, good redemption stories need a character with aspects worth redeeming. As far as I can tell, Subaru has none. Instead, what our dimwitted “hero” has are four defining character traits that he never grows away from. The first trait is the most obvious.
Natsuki Subaru is stupid. I pointed this out straight from the beginning—Subaru is not adept at fundamental learning. He has the ability to reverse time. In even remotely capable hands

The whole one episode backstory where she spins on her heels and goes from identical to Ram to an entirely different person, and is sad until Subaru literally tells her that she can cook clean and her boobs are bigger? And that still doesn't explain why she was confident enough to murder him several times and then just... stops doing that.
You don't understand, she seemed like Ram because that was exactly what she was trying to do, due to the guilt she felt over what happened in their village, she blamed herself for why Ram lost her horn and wanted to be what her sister was that she took away from her, that's why she tried to become more and more like her, but the thing is, that whole persona of her is not her, that's not who she truly is but is what she felt she obligated to be as atonement for her sins. The Rem we see in Episode 11 is who she truly is as a person, not the replacement for her sister that she tried to be. Subaru was simply brought down that entire fake persona of her, and told her to be who she is and not someone else.

Re:Zero ー All Of Subaru's Deaths (In Chronological Order)
Re:Zero's Natsuki Subaru's Return By Death ability is both a blessing and a curse rolled into one. While this power allows Subaru to resurrect himself and change things for the better, it also means that he experiences death in many gruesome forms along the way. Using this power takes a huge toll on his mind, breaking Subaru on more than one occasion.
However, he inevitably finds the courage to pick himself up, keep going, and try for a better conclusion. Through all of these accumulated deaths, he usually finds a better outcome. Fans of Re:Zero are already aware of how gruesome some of Subaru's deaths have been, but some still have the question: "How many times has Subaru died?"
Updated on November 15, 2023, by Ajay Aravind:Re:Zero may not follow conventional shonen guidelines, but this anime is arguably one of the most interesting series out there. The second season was released in 2021, and fans have been waiting for an update for over two years now. Thankfully, a third season based on the light novel's fifth arc has been announced. Season 3 is most likely going to air in 2024. In
