I hate re:zero YouTubers!!! I hate idiots who parrot them! I hate people who read Arc 1 Subaru as “incel chud who thinks he’s entitled to Emilia”
He doesn’t feel entitled to Emilia!
That’s the entire point of episodes 1-4 where Emilia is shocked he doesn’t ask for her body or $!
Can’t believe I’m double dapping this but I think my last repost was getting misinterpreted
If one is to interpret this scene as entitlement from Subaru, this necessarily implies that either
1. It would’ve been correct to leave her to die
2. She is entitled to his dying for her
@Pinkdressshirt I mean yeah, because Emilia feels indebted to him and works to repay her debts
Emilia is not the one saying she owes Subaru nothing here, that is just idiots in the fandom
Emilia says in the clip herself that she owes him a lot and she doesnt even know how much she really owes
@Pinkdressshirt Saying "don't leave me behind, you need me to survive" is not cynical
He is literally right about this, she dies as soon as she leaves him behind in Arc 3 and this matches the pattern of behavior Subaru would know
Hell, Roswaal was setting Emilia up to be a fool in the capital
@Pinkdressshirt Also providing medical treatment so he doesnt die is not really paying him back, that is something you are morally obligated to do even if you had nothing to do with finding them bleeding out
She is also a royal candidate, she literally has to give him a place to recover
@Pinkdressshirt And yes, you have a moral obligation to people who heroically risk their life for you
Deny it all you want, you are still wrong and also uncivilized
@Pinkdressshirt No, he made the sacrifices he did because he did not want her to die. Stop creating these absurdly cynical motives for Subaru that are simply not the case
these are secondary incentives at best
@love4train I agree
He is wrong to say it
The content of what he is saying is not wrong, but to actually come out and say it is wrong
It is a Shirou moment
@Pinkdressshirt Subaru is not a very reliable judge considering how he is
He obviously did not do what he did so that she would owe him, but that doesnt mean she doesnt owe him
Purposely doing something heroic to cause a debt is wrong
But that doesnt mean doing heroic things causes no debt
