Is Subaru the best written character in anime over the last decade?

Is Subaru the best written character in anime over the last decade?

He was doing pretty well and it was clear that his stubborn personality would eventually cause problems but his shift in character from the start of this arc was far too abrupt and extreme to be fitting.

I surprised someone as brave as him became a NEET in the first place.

He has daddy issues

No.

fuck off faggot

>implying anything could be well written in a light novel

Is that the dude from Haikyuu?

He's from korean desk car

> Kept retarded for writer convenience
> Well written

Pick one.

Reminds me of the threads about Asuna being a "strong and dynamic" female character

Good joke.

That's funny. You're funny. Stop being so funny.
After the mansion arc they completely dropped all the character development he had received. That is not how well written characters are handled.

I don't really think he's that well written at all. It feels more like a horror movie since all we're doing is mostly seeing him suffer. His actual character seems to come second to the torture porn.

fuck off. don draper keeps doing the same shit everytime and he's considered one of the best male written characters ever.

Is this the Undertale of Sup Forums?

>comparing someone like Don Draper to chuuni garbage like Subaru

Fucking kill yourself with that low quality bait.

But that didn't happen at all. This arc is just an exaggeration of Subaru's stubbornness and inability to properly convey his thoughts, which had always been present.

Yes.

>Reminds me of the threads about Asuna being a "strong and dynamic" female character
Those were just hilarious.

i wasn't comparing them. it's just that faggots have this idea that character development cannot be dropped for plot reasons and that's fucking stupid

Well, he was well written alright, don't think I have ever found a character that has made me cringe so much. He's the type of character you'd find in a parody VN or something, except it's not playing it for laughs here.

I dunno. Abrupt and extreme events tend to cause abrupt and extreme changes.

What was the abrupt even that triggered him? Some other random guy looking at his self-proclaimed waifu?

No, he suddenly turned from a caring individual who is willing to use his ability to make things right to an egocentric sperg who can't seem to get his head out of his own ass.

Maybe the events where he died several times?

Nigger are you serious

I am so happy that I'll never be so autistic that I can't read inbetween the lines and understand people

They rushed through the fourth volume which is a shame, the manga's adaption of the scene was better.

>caring individual
Dying for other people changed him. You think it's easy just to suffer all that for it to be forgotten?

Stop making threads holy shit just stay in one

>Make a general
>Anons complain

>Make topic specific threads
>Anons complain

Maybe the show should have been better written so this change didn't happen from one second to the other but alas, as long as you can justify it somehow anything goes, amirite?

Not that user but a general would be preferable to this never-ending stream of cancer.

>Sup Forums is one person
Also how is thread about a specific topic?
Its clearly just a clickbait OP to get people to come into the thread

Fuck off newfag

>You think it's easy just to suffer all that for it to be forgotten?
That's the stupidest argument that Toyota apologists keep making.
Fine, others don't know how many times he died but they do know that he stepped up and helped because that was the last thing he did.
He's a hero in their eyes so him angsting about being unappreciated makes no fucking sense because his suffering paid off.

>>Sup Forums is one person
forget that, I thought you said >user complains not anons

anyway, one or two threads would be infinitely better than multiple tiny threads clogging up the board and pissing off others.

He's not neet,he's a shut in.

That's true though. He sperged out purely because he thought Julius was putting the moves on Emilia.
This led him directly to making a complete fool of himself and Emilia for no fucking reason, over and over again.

He had a job and was doing push ups.
He's just a nerd

close but no

He is actually well written. Some people are not able to understand a character with some mental issues apparently. Probably all of them are perfectly balanced people. Yeah. Sure.

No, dumb shit.
Some people expect character development with consistency rather than the writers realizing that the character doesn't really fit the story they want to tell and essentially retconning him.

If you'd been through what he's experienced, you'd have a few mental issues too.

How much consistency has your "character development"? Don't speak like if all people actions also in real life are balanced and coherent all the time. It's not realistic at all.
Anons, all of us have some mental issues even without experiencing what he is experiencing.

The problem with Subaru is that he is an egocentrical sperglord that does everything with the afterthought of being loved and getting attention. Episode 13 was very clear about it. So when Julius showed up, Subaru got mad that Emilia started ignoring him in favor of her duties and took Julius as a rival as he seemed rather close to Emilia. Afraid of losing Emilia, he sperged like an idiot in front of everyone, and lost Emilia as a result. Not being able to get the attention he needs, he started to get involved with people but those ended up being cold and distant towards him while still ignoring Rem because he's hypnotized by Emilia so, when he heard about Emilia being in danger, he took it as his cue to start being close to her again and decided to leave for the mansion. On the way, Rem went ahead without him and he took it as mistrust from her, making him lose the only person that was beside him. And then he goes to the mansion, faces the horrors of the Cultists and understands that everyone is dead and that he's alone again in his new ordeal (he hadn't looped since episode 7, mind you, which was some 3 weeks before) and immediately starts ignoring everything and tries to find comfort in his affection, thinking that everything will be alright if he just stays in his world. This gets Rem tortured and she dies in his arms after her love declaration so he decides to finish it again, goes to the mansion and faces his inevitable death after another grim reminder that everything will end the same again if he does not act.

Subaru has self-esteem issues (daddy related). he is basically a competitive guy. In real life, he was a cheerful and extroverted type like we saw in the earlier episodes. He acted like that, because his father acted like that as well. And he was popular. But his classmates started to hate Subaru for being apparently too cocky and annoying. Subaru started to reject going school.
When he was summoned in the new world, he tried to act again in his cheerful way, because inside him he is basically a friendly guy, and he wishes to be liked and accepted. He thought he could start another life from zero in this world. But at the mansion he was hated, despite he was doing his best to be liked, and he wasn't able to understand the reason. His wish to be appreciated is huge, and this can bring him to be selfish. He wanted to be liked and a hero so bad. specially to be loved by Emilia. But Emilia saw he was acting without even considering her personal wishes, just his own wishes. She was partially right when she said he was doing most of the things for his own sake.
Later Subaru will admit all of this. And in the episode 18, From Zero, he will admit in front of Rem he wears the mask of a clown just to hide his weakness. His fear to be rejected. And he blames the other people for his failures (like he did in the episode 14). He hates himself. But it's not easy to change.
He is really well written for sure.

Far superior time loop MC coming through.

I am this user
and I like your post. Finally someone with good analysis skills.

>he will admit in front of Rem he wears the mask of a clown just to hide his weakness
>I'm an unlikable poorly written retard because I want to hide my weakness
10/10 backtrack writing.

No.

No because undertale IS garbage.

Is this The Dark Knight Rises opening scene of Sup Forums ?

Don't embarrass yourself.

I fucking love Hakomari, but please stop making pointless posts like this.

You first.

>someone people out there actually prefer Subaru to Kazuki
lol

Will his backstory be in episode 18?

You need to be 18+ to post here, buddy.

You mean like the faggots sperging on about how Subaru's the best written character of the last 50 years?

You can't have it one way and not the other, buddy. Kazuki's clearly a better written character anyway. The comparison isn't completely pointless either as they come from similar settings.

I'm not sure if his backstory in real life will be told there. But he speaks about how he wears the mask of a clown, he blames the others for his failures, he knows to be selfish, and stuff like that.
While Rem declares to him her love, he replies she doesn't know him at all and all the qualities that she likes about him are false. I hope the adaptation will be good.
I don't know about you guys, but sometimes I act like a clown just because I'm embarrassed and I'm not able to feel comfortable with some kind of people around me. So i guess the easiest thing I can do it's to say silly things.
I find this trait of him really natural.

>last 50 years
Nice strawman faggot, no one's saying that .They are saying best MC of the "decade" ie 2010s the years 2010 to 2020.

>Kazuki's clearly a better written character anyway.

No.

I was using hyperbole you stupid idiot.

These re:zero threads are so similar I forgot what the OP even said, so I assumed it was just a shitpost and not actually relevant, my bad.
Also I do agree that Kazuki is a better character

>No.
No as in no argument?

No problem. You never had a hope.

No because Subaru is clearly better in my opinion.
My opinion vs your opinion. So it's a matter of interpretation.

>in my opinion
Which is completely worthless.

Yours is useless.

...

this cringey thread again

Thats a nice le reddit maymay you have there.

Can someone who dislikes the show tell us why they do? I've been looking in the threads and it's mainly a bunch of autists calling it shit without giving an explanation.

It's cringey as fuck.

Because it's very popular.

I'm loving it, but it would've been a fair assumption to think it's just shitty waifu-bait, looking at the very beginning of it

hi newfag

>it's mainly a bunch of autists calling it shit without giving an explanation
are you one of those faggots that can't hate shit until he's reached into the toilet and squeezed it between his fingers then eat it?

normal people know to dislike shit without learning the hard way

If you mean the two episodes in the capitol, i understand. I wouldn't call the whole sow cringey though.

...

I enjoy it so I'm asking the people who don't like it to explain why they don't. I just wanted to know, sorry for triggering you.

Try harder reddit.

I don't know why so many people call it shit either. I could see someone saying it's about average, but not shit.

I've been liking it so far, except sometimes I have to skip parts when Subaru is being exceptionally cringey.

Because of the fanbase.
