>>287234301Sylphy, since the end goal could also possibly involve saving Emilia.
>>287234361This design is sort of interesting for including Meili's little pendant and seemingly being based on or inspired by Hector's design. Which is where I could see Ootsuka taking it if he ever had to draw it, Hector has exposed shoulders too and that's the one design feature called out.
>>287234301>>287234335Otto went around and impregnated every one of Regulus' wives that wanted to help Emilia in order to maximize his chances of success. Even dragonfucker. Even the smelly one.He would do that for his bro.

"But of course, our Beako would never take such a despairing course. Instead, she lovingly supports the protagonist when his heart suddenly collapses and he gives up on rehabilitation, devoting herself to forty years of selfless support—an incredibly rare kind of heroine move only possible for someone long-lived. As expected, a loli who has experienced four hundred years of unrewarded time twice over has a different look on her face. Don’t pile up experience like that. Don’t make her pile up experience like that.">heroine"She is the end result of a possibility that became worn away, and the heroine of the Sasageru route. It is without question her existence that made the author decide to write an IF route branching from Arc 9, so it is complicated both for the one saying it and the one hearing it, but I want to express my gratitude.">heroineLoli supremacy

>>287241539>Due to the effects of Aldebaran’s “Territory,” most of them suffered mental collapse.

Those who escaped the mental collapse caused by “Territory” dedicated the rest of their lives to passing on what happened afterward and dealing with the many things that had been lost. From the author’s intuitive perspective, one would not call a marriage without love “spring has come,” nor would one call it an unhappy marriage either.
>Nicola actually did all of this so he could fuck LumeraHe fell in love with a bright, cheerful, and beautiful spirit woman who had been coming and going from his parents' house for as long as he could remember, and he threw all his might to become the right man to be with her. However, when he confessed that he was still a child, his beloved woman replied, "I wonder if you have a promise to the Lord..." and said that she would not be able to respond until it was fulfilled. The answer ignited Nicola's heart, and she said, "If only I could do it within the next ten years!!" In this spirit, all the arrangements were made, and with the cooperation of the Unification Emperor, who was amused by the direct negotiations, the 『Mogoredo Great Spout Black Ball Recovery Plan』 was put into action. However, when I actually met Subaru, I felt a sense of accomplishment and the words of my ancestors, who had been passed down from generation to generation in my parents' home, saying, "Please tell them when you meet him," and I was probably in tears that night.Even after giving everything to love and rescuing Subaru, she was concerned about Subaru's inability to recover, and although her beloved woman did not reciprocate her courtship, she was able to restore Subaru's energy, and even after the person with the disability himself said, "You guys should go out with me." It is beautifully bringing to fruition long-held feelings. This was also a marriage between humans and spirits, so it was surprising news to the public, but thanks to the support of the amusing and generous Unification Emperor, it turned out to be a big wedding ceremony, with the intrusion of ――『Mad Prince』, and Subaru repeating his 『return to death』 routine That's another story. He is the biggest winner on the Sasager route, having dedicated his life and used his skills and actions to get the woman he loves. Even if you get one leg blown off, you can still dress up, so you're afraid of love.
>Cecilus actually fucked the dog and had puppies, but the lineage didn't last 400 years into the story
>>287235883her political stance was "trust me bro" and she still was the best candidate
The other 5 spirits princesses weren't killed by the Mad Prince directly but eaten by Arakiya in the plan to divert him.

>>287241539Reinhard is such a loser.
The exact nature of Lugnica being destroyed is a spoiler and touches on the main story. Similarly the reason for Reinhard's execution is apparently kind of a spoiler. So anyone that guessed it relates to arc 10 is probably about right.
>>287241539>>Due to the effects of Aldebaran’s “Territory,” most of them suffered mental collapse. None recoveredB-but Feltfags told me she was stronk enough to recover...

Vague has a fifth protection and his only natural one, the Blessing of Usurpation. With it he can steal other blessings and stole the other 4.
>>287242938https://mypage.syosetu.com/mypageblog/view/userid/235132/blogkey/3611175/Tappei has a supplement explaining details and things that wouldn't fit.Roswaal got sad after Subaru vanishes, gave up and spent his time helping other survivors until he eventually died and stayed dead because he doesn't care.
Naturally Vague is stronger in this 400 year future than he is in the main story due to absorbing various powers from the spirits he kills. He's still strong in the present.
>>287242976>Roswaal got sad after Subaru vanishes and gives upMY FANFIC IS LORE ACCURATE LET'S FUCJING GO
>>287243039He might very well be the strongest being alive in the world. Too bad his opponent is "possibility = certain victory".
Petra apparently broke her own brain to put Satella away, she retains only tiny shreds of sanity due to Meili, who obviously tasked the scorpion with attending her.
>>287243115Petra and the Mad Prince is unironically the same shit as Reinhard and the Witch
No particular reason given for how the melancholy factor lets Petra be immortal other than "she is clever" and that it can be abused in all sorts of ridiculous ways.
>>287243159Not really. Reinhard and Satella are even, Vague is apparently a bad match up against Petra. Despite his blessing to empower him as battle continues that was maybe taken on purpose to compensate for an apparent relative lack of stamina in a fight (not really sure what Tappei is on about since his one stated feat is fighting for 7 days and nights straight) which Petra can exploit with compression.On a personal level, he apparently likes Petra because he likes strong/strong-willed women.
>>287243188If the witch factor of melancholy allows you to sacrifice possibility for compression, it's possible that Petra simply sacrificed various things that would have made her age.
Why can’t I find any good Rezero fan fiction? Literally all of it is garbage
>>287243216Blessings that make you stronger when fighting strong opponents seem kinda useless against authority wielders because technically Regulus and Petra are very weak when it comes to physical prowess, magic power or technique.
>>287243188My headcanon is that all Witches can't age/age slowly (see Satella, Pandora and Petra) Priestella was made to kill Typhon, and she looks 15, there is no fucking way they built an entire city in that timeframe even if they started when she was born, so I'm assuming that Typhon was also old as fuck when she died
>>287243260His isn't tied to that, just that he constantly had that one indominable buff, he adapts to changing conditions, he's always stronger alone, and the more he does something the more efficient it becomes. Two of those factor into extended fights but apparently he isn't good at drawn out conflicts.
>>287243226That's about all I can guess, the world thinks you dying or being able to grow older counts as potential and if you sacrifice that it stops because the world is a dum-dum.
>>287243347>the world is a dum-dum.We are talking about the same world that allowed Petra to teleport 20 people to the other side of the country just by vowing to never marry Subaru, Od Lagna is retarded.
>>287243317Nah, they built it in a hurry, she's young.Sirius is only old because of her race while Petelguese needs to swap bodies as they age and get burned through. The exact timing for some of the events of 400 years ago is going to be weird since as you mention Typhon does die young and so does Daphne so there's a limit to how long the 7 witches could've really been active together.
>>287243406I said "Witch", not "Authority Users".Al didn't mind fighting Petra as an Authority User, but he lost his shit when she became a Witch.I'm assuming there is an important distinction, considering that Echidna mentions witches a lot in No Stella No Life
Rosalind doesn't participate in the final battle because she apparently got randomly sick and died in the 40 year prep phase. She also imagines herself to be Vincent's bride since she looks so much like Empress Medium. Those wacky incestuous royals.Mogoro unsurprisingly still exists but he doesn't give a fuck about Subaru so he didn't help.
>>287243459There is no difference between a witch and someone who has an authority, its just a semantic game the cult plays. People who aren't being dumb call the archbishops "this generation's X"The cycle of the authorities destroying the world has been repeated over and over with each sin having at least one time it was their turn to destroy the world.
No additional mention of Rem in the supplement, though the important thing she does is covered in the story. Maybe would've nice to say after that she spent her life tending to potato Ram even if its kind of depressing.
Y..yeah... looking forward to it...
>>287243258You should totally check out the Reactionist fanfic where the cast watches Subaru dieAnd reacts to itIt's the best fic in the entire community and honestly better than the actual story

>>287245665Jerking off to AI Emilia porn
>>287245665Doomposting about S4.
The fact that Subaru's Return point updated in the new IF confirms to me that Emilia's continued existence and path towards becoming Satella is the core factor in if Subaru's RBD updates or not. Which is to say, they will 100% time travel into the past and become Flugel and Satella.
>>287247968I have also been noticing this for a bit, but I think that one of Tappei's inspirations very well may be Zero Escape, in particular 999.Which is a great Visual Novel and you should absolutely play/read it if you have not already.
>>287247968You know, except where its not, like in Gluttony where he killed her and RbD won't reset to before that.
>>287240121Not really, they're about the same I'd say.
>>287248304Then what is your explanation for what triggers it? Are they all timelines that need to happen to enact some main timeline events? That would be even MORE like 999
>>287247811You think Subaru asks them to pose like this before their threesomes
>>287248304Subaru doesn't die in Gluttony IF tho? For all we know his savepoint is still right before shit went down in the last loop of Arc 6
>>287242976>Reinhard executedWhat the heck is going to happen for this to be a possibility, I can’t see it being because of the Al situation Reinhard is way too important for the Kingdom to get rid of him because of the his father allying with Al or whatever happened to Felt in the IF
>>287249286Probably something to do with Melty eroding the Kingdom from the inside
>>287240121>>287248397Yeah, I'm not convinced, need more evidence.
>>287249286>too important for the Kingdom to get rid ofCrush will crush any dependency of homos like Reindhard or filthy beasts like the dragon
>>287249286Nobody gives a fuck about Reinhard, grow up
>>287249286Chances are, it's something related to Philore (Capella), the witch cult takes control of Lugunica through elections and lay waste to the kingdom and Karagiri, there's no reason for the current rulers of the Kingdom to execute Rein.>>287248425Satella and Emilia are not the same person. Currently I favor the theory that everything Flugel sent into motion with the Tower and books of the dead is a plan to save Sattella from the Witch of Greed that's why "Subaru" needs to kill her and then Emilia would read her Book of The Dead, this would be the only way to "save" Satella, chances are, Emilia was made for it. But will Subaru actually follow through with it?RBD is not linked to Emilia, but to Satella and the only know way for Subaru to break the cycle is dying with no regrets. But we just don't have enough information of who Subaru actually is, especially with the latest Al reveals.>>287249403>>287243258For me, it's Re:Surviving, but I may be a little biased.
>>287248697Yes he does. Its not part of the story since it would be distracting, but he does RbD according to Tappei. Otherwise he could just kill people read the book and reset having done it once he finds out they don't know anything useful.>>287248425Tappei's whim and that's it. He doesn't like dead Emilias or killing or anything like that so its uncommon, Satella explicitly doesn't give a shit.
>>287249286Failure to protect the kingdom or the witch cult wins in arc 10 and makes up shit to execute him for, which he accepts because he's a toady.Could be something like that.
>>287249793>Satella and Emilia are not the same person.We do not know for certain that they are two different people. A time loop where Satella is the "previous" Emilia is very possible and I would say even likely. >Currently I favor the theory that everything Flugel sent into motion with the Tower and books of the dead is a plan to save Sattella from the Witch of Greed that's why "Subaru" needs to kill her and then Emilia would read her Book of The Dead, this would be the only way to "save" Satella, chances are, Emilia was made for it. But will Subaru actually follow through with it?Possible, but why would Satella love Subaru in this case? This could also play into the loop theory, where the "previous" Flugel keeps sacrificing Emilia for Previous Emilia/Satella, causing Subaru to go back and become the "next" Flugel to save his version of Satella/Emilia. The loop in this case would end when Subaru finally lets Emilia die or himself fully dying.>RBD is not linked to Emilia, but to Satella and the only know way for Subaru to break the cycle is dying with no regrets.In both of our variants of the theory it would need to be linked to Emilia so that there is an Emilia to "become" Satella, whether that is Flugel trying to save Satella or not. >>287249879>Tappei's whimThat is possible but doesn't leave much to theorize with. It is possible that he just doesn't want Emilia to die, but I think it is more likely that it plays into the greater plot and I don't think Subaru only resetting back to before an If Route is in a route where Emilia dies is a coincidence.
What would be Subaru's main if he was a league of legends player?
>>287250061Zac because he'll always bounce back.
>>287249944>and I don't think Subaru only resetting back to before an If Route is in a route where Emilia dies is a coincidence.Again, he doesn't. Again, he resets in Tsugihgu as per Tappei and the story only works if he can't reset to undo what he's done. He is trying to get the real Subaru back assuming that Subaru has a trick he doesn't. If all it took for him to undo all the killing he's done for no reason was dying he'd already have done it. >That one doesn't countTired of this stupid shit, you made an absolute statement, that he *only* ever resets to before Emilia has died in an IF and there's an IF that proves you wrong. It only takes one counter example for an absolute to be wrong, if you claim that's an absolute, concrete, 100% mechanic it can have zero deviations.
>>287250061Ekko, duh.
>>287249944>Possible, but why would Satella love Subaru in this case?Why Satella claims to love Subaru already does not align with anything he or Emilia have done. Emilia and Satella have completely different magic affinities. For Emilia to be Satella, Emilia has to be the original (except Emilia is actually very likely to have already existed 400 years ago and have been double tossed forward in time) so you have to have Emilia born 400 years ago, get moved to 300 years ago by a process that did not age her, then freeze herself for 100 years, then meet Subaru, go through whatever, then undergo some unknown magical process that entirely rewires her soul to change her affinity, then also get her brain deleted, then also get sent back 400 years ago so she can be Satella around the same time she is born, which causes a complete paradox which has horrible results for how the story is told and what anything in it means. The only fix to a true paradox is that the universe is deterministic, all created at once, and time is an illusion. So no deviations from fate are possible at all, choice is fake and gay, and all that. Since the future predicting books do not have 100% accuracy and alternate possibilities can be projected as well as the general themes and things various characters have as arcs, this means the cosmology of the world cannot be a complete closed loop paradox.
>>287251342>Why Satella claims to love Subaru already does not align with anything he or Emilia have done.At this point in time but there is no reason this could not be something that manifest as as the plot moves forward (or backward if they go back in time) >Emilia and Satella have completely different magic affinities.This can be explained by the Witch factor possibly altering her affinity.The idea in this line of thinking isn't that they existed before and then moved to the present time, it's that the present time will move back to the previous time, creating a closed loop.Multiple timelines or worldlines can exist that branch off from choice to allow for the story to not be deterministic, hence the IF routes, but still lead into a "main" timeline that moves forward. And it isn't the same Emilia and Satella constantly looping, it is a previous cycles Emilia becoming Satella in the past, after which Emilia will be born and experience the events of the story, who will then go back in time and replace current Satella and the cycle will continue.This calls back again to Zero Escape, as this is exactly what happens in that series.
>>287251342>>287249944Satella has always had traits of the three girls Subaru loves the most. She looks like Emilia but otherwise is nothing like her, her magic is the same as Betty's, and her behavior is more like Rem. Emilia is, at best, literally just what she's already said to be multiple times, a vessel.
>>287251494>Multiple timelines or worldlines can exist that branch off from choice to allow for the story to not be deterministicNope. Your entire basis is that it has to be a closed loop and Emilia is always cosmically protected. That's a hard paradox. The only solution for which is choice is impossible and everything that ever will happen already has. No deviations within the structure of the closed loop can occur at all. It is possible to create a limited closed loop, like what happens in Bravern, and so once the loop completes free will is possible again and people won't know what's going to happen, but that closed loop would have to contain the entirety of the existing story of Re Zero and still be in effect so no deviations are allowed.>And it isn't the same Emilia and Satella constantly looping, it is a previous cycles Emilia becoming Satella in the past, after which Emilia will be born and experience the events of the story, who will then go back in time and replace current Satella and the cycle will continue.You have literally no idea what you're even saying and can't stop contradicting yourself. If you're too dumb to understand time travel don't bother speculating about it. >This calls back again to Zero Escape, as this is exactly what happens in that series.Yeah, sounds like whoever wrote Zero Escape hasn't bothered to think through what their mechanics actually mean either, which is standard because dumbasses like you both overcomplicate something that actually isn't that hard to understand while failing to comprehend what the mechanics actually mean.Every one of you dumbasses think a perfect closed loop is ultra super smart instead of retarded and then tack a difference fallacy on it by just saying free will matters when it clearly doesn't. Just because you can say something doesn't mean its logically true. I can say I can blow up the planet and also the planet can never be destroyed by anything, that's not clever, its just a contradiction.
>>287251686>>287251494To make this simple for your pea brain, you cannot have something that isn't actually a loop i.e. Emilia goes back and becomes a Satella, the world has changes based on what that new Satella does a new Emilia is born with some differences and its simply a rhyming cycle and have Emilia be cosmically protected because the cycle that isn't actually a paradox is self enforcing and ensures she can never die before the cycle continues. That's you being a retard and trying to have your cake and eat it too. Either its a paradox and Emilia is cosmically protect and therefore nothing can ever deviate until she gets looped or its functionally a series of resets where things can differ. Pick one.I know which one the story actually favors and its the one that has that big point of contradiction you refuse to even engage with because of how much it torpedoes your stupidity.Go ahead, give me the reason every other IF counts because you think you can tease some "proof" out of them but the Tsugihagu IF doesn't because its counter evidence that means your theory is simply wrong.Other IFs also provide counter evidence like the Sloth IF because Emilia dies and Subaru never resets at all, meaning this enforced cycle that must happen is broken.
>>287251686The loop can work with multiple timelines or a single one. A single one looks something like>Emilia is born, Satella already exists>Subaru enters the world, goes through the events of the main story with Emilia>Eventually they travel back in time, Emilia ends up becoming Satella through whatever plot developments happen such as the Witch Factor or Witches like Pandora. Subaru becomes the Sage/Flugel and the events of the past play out. >Thanks to this, Satella exists and the timeline plays out as before with Emilia being born, frozen in time, thawed by Puck, Subaru arrives, ect.How did the first Satella exist if she required Subaru to enter and then go back to become Flugel/the Sage? That is what makes it paradoxical, this would be far from the first story to have an intentional paradox in it.As for multiple timelines, you can have a closed loop of events and multiple timelines because "choice" isn't the only divergent factor in reality. You could simply have a many worlds interpretation where there is no wave-function collapsing, it simply diverges through decoherence. Especially when you have a character who can see into potential or real divergences such as Echidna you can have a closed loop that co-exists with these decoherent timelines. If you still can't understand this then I don't care to continue trying to help you understand it, you will just see the story play out and find yourself flabbergasted when something similar to either of the above scenarios play out.
>>287233495New Chapter for Sasageru IF - https://mypage.syosetu.com/mypageblog/view/userid/235132/blogkey/3611175/
>>287253364Beatrice Part 1This is the first IF route where Beatrice and Subaru can properly be together — and I thought Betty was supposed to be a saint!!So, alongside Subaru, she's the cute Great Spirit who was sealed for 400 years and then thrown into the world that came after. Just from that premise, her profile sounds like a final boss. Doesn't "Artificial Spirit" as a setting sound like something that was created to destroy the world?Of course, our Betty does nothing of the sort — far from despairing at the world, she instead devotedly supports the protagonist as his heart immediately crumbles and he tries to abandon his rehab, providing forty years of selfless, dedicated care in a heroine move rarely seen in fiction. As expected, a loli who has experienced 400 x 2 years of unrecognized devotion has a different kind of face. Don't accumulate those experiences. Don't make her accumulate those experiences.Wise and deeply compassionate, Beatrice had a fairly accurate grasp of how much effort went into rescuing them from the Mogored Great Caldera, and had largely understood the true intentions of the companions who entrusted them with the future — yet she never once said anything to push or hinder Subaru's decision. Within that silence lay the trust that "Subaru can decide this on his own," and the resolve that "even if he can't, I'll support him for the rest of my life" — vividly displaying the determination of the girl who was led out of the Forbidden Archive in Chapter 4 of the main story.
>>287253394Beatrice Part 2That said, if it had just been the two of them alone for forty years, even Beatrice — who had already come to know the warmth and joy of lively days — might have broken. What saved her was the new relationships she built with members from 400 years later. Particularly, the warm friendship with Lumera (who even picked up a strange speech pattern out of admiration for her), and with Arakia and Madelyn — living witnesses with direct ties to the Emilia Camp. The long-lived conversations between Beatrice and the dramatically-mellowed Madelyn painted an ideal picture of what the ageless ones should be.Ultimately, Beatrice achieves the same feat as Subaru — permanently keeping [■■■]'s existence in a corner of her mind — and stands on the same stage as her partner. Beatrice's version was a full forty-year endeavor, compared to Subaru's relatively quicker achievement through sheer obsession. Either way, without Beatrice, Subaru's mind would have shattered early on with no means of recovery. She is undeniably the unsung pillar holding everything up, and has the dignity of being the Sasageru MVP as a Great Spirit.
>>287252139>A single one looks something likeNo shit retard, that's a paradox. In order for it to be solved time cannot be real, choice is impossible and all of history happens at once.>How did the first Satella exist if she required Subaru to enter and then go back to become Flugel/the Sage? That is what makes it paradoxical, this would be far from the first story to have an intentional paradox in it.Are you literally retarded? Seriously, are you literally retarded? That's what I've been talking about. I even accused you of not understanding a god damn thing and I was proven 100% right by your retardation.>It makes perfect sense because other stories that don't make sense have made this same mistakeWhat a fucking moron you are.The "solve" for that is since you haven't gotten it through your skull after having it been spelled out for you three times is everything has to play out exactly as makes the paradox complete and can never deviate. Time is a trick. Illusion of choice is just that. Anyone in the story that demands a choice out of someone is feeding them a load of shit, that choice cannot be made in any other way. Time is 100% fixed and always plays out the same way. Choose Me? Betty literally can't do anything else. Subaru is likewise obligated to make an offer that has no ability to be refused. The structure of this is literally a story. The whole thing is printed at once, you can jump freely from point to point and no matter what the events can't change. Obviously all stories are literally stories but the trick in a good story is to suspend disbelief and play along with the logic that other things can happen and characters have agency and all that. It is not in fact clever or genius or smart to have a story that the rules of the world force it to have the same structure as one, again especially if you want to have characters within the story argue about fate or choice or anything of the sort.Revealing this as your big master plan makes it a joke
>>287252139>you can have a closed loop of events and multiple timelinesNo you can't dipshit. That's a literal contradiction in terms. If anything deviates its not a closed loop by definition. You cannot have a closed loop paradox and multiple outcomes within the loop.>because "choice" isn't the only divergent factor in realityWe literally do not know that. All scientific evidence points in the direction of determinism but humans are wired to not think about things like that. What the actual state of reality is is unknown. >You could simply have a many worlds interpretation where there is no wave-function collapsingThen its not a closed loop you fuckstick, and Emilia is not required as a matter of physical law to be protected by the rules of the universe needing to force a closed loop which is the basis of every single thing in your retarded assertions. >Especially when you have a character who can see into potential or real divergences such as Echidna you can have a closed loop that co-exists with these decoherent timelines.No you can't you dumbfuck. It is either closed or it isn't. You are legitimately a fucking moron>decoherenceYou literally have no idea what the fuck this even means.You once again have nothing for how in two whole IFs Emilia dies and the loop you need to always close itself can't be closed, while simultaneously saying all the other loops support your dumbfuck assertion that all IFs support that Emilia is protected by RbD no matter what and is the singular condition it revolves around.>If you still can't understand this then I don't care to continue trying to help you understand itYou don't understand the most basic things, you can't even wrap your brain around what a paradox is, why its a problem or why determinism solves it and is in fact the only solve. You demand that the world behave in accordance with a paradox as physical law then claim it can just diverge anyway. You are beyond help.
This is everything wrong with time travel stories. Idiots like this cannot wrap their brains around the mechanics even though they aren't that complicated. In fact its because they're not that complicated. Writers and readers want time travel to be stupid and nonsensical and midwits like this retard won't accept a logical outcome in any way or balk at obvious logical consequences of the bullshit they want to put in to be "clever"And so you have an entire genre written by retarded pseuds for retarded pseuds ignoring anyone smarter telling them their shit is retarded and doesn't work while they just cope that nobody else but they "get it" because they're just so smart.No, you're not. You're actually just fucking retarded.
>>287253289
>>287253364What if Reinhard was betrayed and KILLED and- Oh.
>>287253504By your logic, free will doesn't exist in any form since every neuron's movement can be traced in a causal chain to the beginning of the universe and/or an all knowing God knows what choice you will make already.The choices that lead to this moment were still made even if it is a loop, the same exact person in a same exact scenario will make the same exact choice for the same exact reasons every time, causality doesn't nullify free will whether time is linear or there is a loop. And if you can't buy the above then there is still decoherence (through a Many Words interpretation, not a Copenhagen one) to explain "choice", each possibility exists in it's own timeline. IF stories and Echidna being able to create a version of Rigel supports this idea. I think it is funny that you are throwing a tantrum, insults, and claims of ignorance when you yourself are not capable of understanding what are pretty easily digestible ideas. Again, we will see where the plot goes.
>>287252139>you will just see the story play out and find yourself flabbergasted when something similar to either of the above scenarios play out.So far Tappei is the one wrier I have ever seen who seems to understand how this works and what the implications of various things are. Meanwhile you're so dumb you don't realize the multi world concept has already been brought up and if true means Subaru gives up and quits because he correctly realizes what he's trying to do can never work, never save anything and is ultimately pointless. RbD can't save a thing, it can only selfishly let him survive and get what he wants from the world if he doesn't care about what anybody else actually is.Both of your above scenarios are game over conditions, both entirely ruin the story, one of which explicitly by the MC's own admission. The first one by making a mockery and a lie of entire arcs that revolved around choice, fighting "fate" and other such things. The world even obviously does not work that way already because of these arcs even though Od Laguna has opinions on the way things should be various things can kick it in the balls and tell it how things are. >and find yourself flabbergastedDon't get in a hissy fit when all your retard theories are wrong and Emilia is Emilia, Satella is Satella, Flugel is Flugel and Subaru is Subaru and only some existing reincarnation/soul recycling shenanigans explain how things rhyme between them. You know, a super common thing Tappei has done throughout the story with characters like Subaru, Betty, Rem and Garfiel being various levels of he same shut in and all getting their problems addressed in slightly different but similar ways. Subaru accidentally saves Rem, Rem saves Subaru, Subaru saves Garfiel and Betty. There's tons of these parallels all over the story yet you retards can only think "OMG something is slightly the same, they must literally be the exact same person!!!!!!!!11"How'd that go for Al dipshit?
What if Emilia was CUTE?
>>287253364Quick summary I'll put in two posts due to the word limit.Subaru and Beatrice:Tappei says it's the first IF route where Beatrice and Subaru can properly be together. They were supposed to be sealed for 1000-10000 years, but it only lasted 400. It takes 40 years of rehabilitation with Beatrice by his side for Subaru to recover, stretching, feeding and washing him daily. The Yang Sword was the cause of Subaru's physical state. Subaru's mind would have shattered without Beatrice. She's the MVP of Sasageru and holds everything together. Beatrice always supports Subaru and it reminds her of Arc 4 when she was saved, now it's her turn to save him.Nicola & Lumera:Nicola falls in love with Lumera but she has to fulfil her promise to Julius first of saving Subaru and Beatrice. After they get married but don't have any children. If they did then the Mad Prince would come after them. Lumera looks up to Beatrice, and part of her speech pattern comes from her saying things like 'I suppose'. The Mad Prince crashed their wedding.Rosalind, Arakiya, Madelyn, Clind:Rem sought refuge in the Empire and made a deal with Vincent. This deal was passed down to Rosalind with the Yang Sword to unseal Subaru and Beatrice, which she did knowing it might have some effect on Subaru's body. During the 40 years of rehabilitation, Rosalind eventually dies due to illness and her daughter takes the throne. Cecilus has a child with Arakiya, but his bloodline eventually dies out. Arakiya absorbs Julius' spirits that died to the Mad Prince, which allows her to defend against him as she's now stronger. Clind becomes an alcoholic due to messing up Petra's life. He's eventually found by Madelyn with the tome of wisdom left behind by Roswaal for Subaru, and he joins the final battle. Madelyn establishes herself as one of the Nine Divine Generals.
>>287255984Kingdom, Roswaal, Reinhard, Aldebaran, Emilia:The Kingdom falls and Vollachia Empire takes over. None of Al's accomplices recovered due to the domain effects. Roswaal doesn't use Soul Transcription and lives the rest of his life with those who survived. He believes a different Subaru will redo everything. Reinhard is executed, the Sword Saint line is gone, and the Dragon Sword is lost from the world. Emilia freezes herself and Aldebaran at the Canyon so Subaru and Beatrice can figure out how to deal with him before he dies.Mad Prince Vague Adgard:Half-human half-spirit child of a Great Spirit father and human mother, the only one to exist. He has the same lifespan as a spirit and can swap between human and spirit form. Has the Divine Protection of Usurpation, which can steal Divine Protections from others. He killed Odglass, Zarestia, and Julius' spirits except Lumera. His sword is Aeon and one of the 10 cursed swords, it uses the wielder's mana. He grows stronger with each spirit killed. He's imprisoned in the main story timeline and hasn't broken out. He has poor combat endurance like a human and is not good at prolonged battles.Crimson Scorpion:Has grown large over 400 years. It is stronger than all other beasts and has mastered Hell's Snipe. Meili asked it to stay with Petra, and it blows off the feet of opponents to not kill them but they'll eventually die of blood loss if not treated.The Witch of Melancholy:The route branches out from whichever was the best for Aldebaran to win. She became hunted and left to not cause trouble to those around her. The Crimson Scorpion stays by her side as her only friend. She has mastered the Authority and can hold her own against anyone, but it still requires a sacrifice. She has forgotten the two who are frozen, but still protects the glacier. Beatrice's words and experience help her and they fight the Mad Prince in the end.
Man, I'm jealous, there was so much care put into Sasageru If it even had a sort of "Q&A" after, I wish Tappei would revisit the other ifs besides Greed, they're were so undeveloped and short back then.
>>287256029Let's hope that the other IFs will be expanded when they are adapted into LNs
>>287256018>Reinhard is executedGuess Reinshart no longer wanted to be alive after failing that hard
>>287256029Which IF if this? I thought Subaru didn't join the cult in Ayamatsu
>>287256018>Roswaal doesn't use Soul Transcription and lives the rest of his life with those who survived. He believes a different Subaru will redo everything.Subaru's biggest glazer
>>287256526He's literally the arcbishop of Pride.
>>287233556Agreed. Rem got shit on pretty hard too imo.
>>287253364>humans can marry a spirit>half-spirit hybrids are possible and don’t ageSo in the main route, Subaru will either live forever or give a child to Beako so she can still have Subaru.
>>287257905Beatrice has the body of a child so that probably never happens, but it does more or less confirm the speculation that Beatrice would take Subaru or herself if she could.As an artificial spirit, she probably doesn't have the same ability to evolve like Lumeria.Also nobody caught that Cecilus impregnated Arakiya, wild shit man
>>287257905cant a professional spirit fucker just fill the entire world up with immortal half spirits then?
>>287257905
>>287258002Julius if he wasn't a fucking coward:
>>287257946Did Echidna even make Puck, Beatrice, and Foxidna with romantic feelings? All we’ve seen are protective familial feelings, and Echidna is a retard with weird emotions.They’re artificial which might mean they can’t have children because they’re not real biological spirits, and they can’t grow and are stuck in their current form.
>>287257946>Also nobody caught that Cecilus impregnated Arakiya, wild shit manIts literally mentioned in this thread, blindbro.>>287242690
>>287257731No he's not. He knows the seat is vacant, so he claims the title. He doesn't have any active authorities much less pride because he never drank Dona tea. He killed the rest of the archbishops. And he only says it to Emilia to antagonize her into killing him, he doesn't introduce himself that way to anyone else.
>>287258041Echidna doesn't understand most feelings to begin with so its doubtful. By default spirits don't really seem to understand romance in general, which was a problem with Pete and Fortuna. Makes sense since they don't have a sex drive.
>>287258041>romanticLove is love, affection is affection. What makes it romantic is you add sexual attraction to it.Beatrice is very clearly in love with Subaru but is content to perform the role as a sister-daughter because her appearance can't be altered. She takes pride in her drills and outfit but longs for a changeup because Subaru wants it.>woman changes appearance because man likes itDon't know how much clearer that could be. The only question in my mind is if adult Beatrice would still respect Subaru's affection for Rem and Emilia, or prioritize herself. Most of the Emilia camp don't care about Emilia herself and are allied by proxy via Subaru. By a similar token Crusch, Ana and Vincent are indebted to Subaru but not Emilia directly. Would Betty abandon the elf hussy at first opportunity?
>>287258152I think the artificial spirits have a parent/sibling relationship with their contractors and don’t have the capacity for what they weren’t created for. They can’t evolve because they’re fixed in nature, and they’re not biological which means they can’t reproduce. Also Echidna doesn’t understand emotions properly and the 3 artificial spirits are experiments.>She takes pride in her drills and outfit but longs for a changeup because Subaru wants it.This could be the greedy nature of Beatrice and her contract that monopolizes her contractor. Subaru can only have 1 spirit, which means he gives all his familial attention to her and she loves it so she changes her style to get reactions out of Subaru.
>>287258094holy sexo
>>287258094She is already barefoot, let's make her pregnant!
Is there a canonical reason why Subaru refuses to pet Emilia?It has been mentioned two times in the main story and once in the side stories, so I'm guessing it's something pretty important
>>287258120And Tappei said in a QNA that Pete’s love for Satella wasn’t sexual in nature. He was a Spirit though, so maybe he has to naturally evolve into a Great Spirit to develop romance?>>287258343Echidna had a shit relationship with her parents and they didn’t love her, so it makes sense that the artificial spirits she created for a purpose would unintentionally act as parents or siblings to who they contract with, to give the contractor something she never had as a child. We see this with Puck, Eridna, and Beatrice and how they protect and care for their contractors like parents and will sacrifice their life to save them, even in a hopeless situation. It’s also impossible to contract with any of the three unless they specifically choose you.Mad Prince had a Great Spirit father and human mother. It says Nicola and Lumera didn’t have any children even though they were married. It could be that the mother has to be a human since she has the real organs to facilitate the birth. Beatrice was made in the image of a child and she’s artificial like her siblings and they can’t grow like biological spirits. Beatrice and her siblings wouldn’t be able to reproduce, even if Lumera could.The Mad Prince wants to murder all spirits too, so maybe his birth wasn’t from conventional sex and rather some fucked up experiment on a human woman.
>>287258411She probably vowed away everything that has anything to do with that.
>>287260193Our only hope is Subaru lives forever with Beako using all the authorities. If it's a bittersweet ending, then it's just them alive while their original friend group is long gone.
>>287260640Or return to earth and enjoy scifi life in the 24th century.
I can't believe Aldebaran was Volachian agent all along
>>287243734>From here on, she'll be smashing her way through as a central figure in the story for better or worse.>she'll be a central figure in the story for better or worse.What did they mean by this.
>>287258078He joins the witch cult on the first day anon, it's how he even learns Sloth plans.The problem with Ayamatsu is that it's so short that it doesn't spell thing to the reader and then they go "But it never says that!" yeah no shit, user your head.
The ride never ends.
>>287261336Suffering builds character>>287262624AIEEEEEEE
>>287262790>>287262624Gusteko confirmed baby!!
>>287257734>Becomes more popular than Emilia>Have her fall in love with Subaru, only to have her rejected after a heart wrenching love confession to him>Gets put into a coma shortly after, thus writing her out of a huge chunk of the story so Emilia can have the spotlightTappei is still a dick for doing this.
>>287262991You forgot the ‘only for that rejection to be uno-reversed a day later’ part of your greentext. Unless you’re a secondary.
>>287260170Its that he wants to fuck her, so he doesn't want to do something that treats her like a little kid.
>>287262600He gets picked up by Pete on the first day, finds out Pete wants to kill Emilia, plots to kill Pete then kills Pete. You're the one who needs to use your brain. Is the guy who killed all the other members of the witch cult while working with Elsa, Meili, Roswaal, Felix, etc... doesn't have a gospel, doesn't have a witch factor, and lies about his position actually part of the witch cult?
>>287262991He didn't reject her. Yes I know it sounds stupid, but Subaru is a retard so him saying he likes Emilia is affirming to her that he is back to normal now. A day later they have to be stopped from making out by Felix.
>>287263206Yes, he is.I think what you're confusing here is intent.No, he doesn't follow the church he has his own goals but you bet he used those resources.
>>287263269What resources dumbass? No cultists follow him, he killed he leader of the one group that does us minions onscreen then is stated to kill all the others as well through unknown means with exception of Regulus. His own spirit and Roswaal are what is used to burn down Lugnica, Elsa and Meili are his primary weapons, Felix kills Julius, so tell me oh great and literate one, where are all these "cult resources" he was using?He didn't. He was lying about the cult to make him an enemy for Emilia to have to kill him. That's the whole damn point. Even Emilia magically recognizes he was actually protecting her somehow.Membership in the cult is determined by being given a gospel, he doesn't have one, he killed everyone else, no cultists follow him, nothing. You're the one not using your brain, the simplest and most obvious answer is just correct, he's fucking lying.Oh and don't start some dumbfuck line about Elsa and Meili being "cult resources", neither are part of the cult dumbfuck and they hate cultists like anyone else does.
>>287262624Huh…So…Maybe it just that arc 10,11 and 12 are going to separate in two like what happened with arc 7 and 8
Apparently according to the recent QA stuff Frederica just lived the rest of her life supporting the survivors of the Aldebuster thing, which makes sense since her brother was one of the victims, and remained single. So Freddie is not the mother of Otto's schemes.
>>287263645I wouldn't read it like that. Contextually I think its just him saying he would like people to keep reading his story forever. But we'll see if anything weird happens. Splitting bigger arcs for marketing might be a thing as you suggested so its not impossible.
>>287262624Arc 8 Priscilla dieArc 9 Al is sealedArc 10 crush dieWho going to die in the arc 11,12,13,14,15?
>>287263611Your insistence on misunderstanding my point tires me anon. Discuss with the machine from now on, I'm not putting any more effort on this discussion.No concessions.>>287263745Subaru.
