@Olivia66949612 So you, you fucking son of a whore, refused to respect artists and slung mud instead of giving constructive criticism, and now that someone disrespected you by not crediting you, you whine like a fucking bitch. You made your bed, now lie in it.
@Not_Reflection Honestly, I hate this flashback. I hate it so much that every time I re:watched of Re:Zero, it was the only part I skipped. It feels way too drawn out. Most of it is already explained before it's even shown, through dialogue with Ram. Maybe it's time to give it a second chance.
@AnimeTokki Either way, that doesn't change the fact that she was awake in episode 1 of season 2. And it wasn't a recap. The anime didn't show this in season 1. Basically, it's something like a flashback.
@LustSubaru The problem is that the episode is made in a completely ordinary way. The direction is nonexistent. Rewatch 1x18 and you will see how much more creative it was. 4x16 gives the impression that they didn't even try. Btw, people who harass creators and wish death on them are idiots
@Donixfr@JustKrispyyz It's already been 3 months since the episode. It amazes me that people like you still exist. It was a meme. And the joke was to hype up a scene where nothing special actually happens. Before this meme appeared, nobody ever brought up that scene.
@justsomerandguy@zeppeli4_5 I'll take your word for it, but honestly, the emotional tone of those scenes doesn't give the impression that the author was trying to make the viewer uncomfortable with them - though he definitely succeeded at that.
@justsomerandguy@zeppeli4_5 Just a reminder that in MT, within the first few episodes, the main character managed to steal a maid's underwear, the MC's teacher jerked off watching the MC's parents, and the MC himself tried to get into a 10-year-old girl's pants.
@justsomerandguy@zeppeli4_5 No, your point was that "Shaula's design alone is more fanservice than anything Mushoku has done so far". Re:Zero clearly isn't an anti-fanservice anime, but it obviously has less fanservice than anime usually does. Especially before season 3.
@Screen_Takes What I'm getting at is that these flashbacks essentially do the same thing and serve the same function - it's just that the Shaula scene pulled it off in 30 seconds, while Rem's flashback took up half an episode to do it.
@Screen_Takes It seems to me that for some reason you're slightly biased against the Shaula scene. I honestly don't really understand how you can compare a roughly 30-second monologue to a full-blown flashback that takes up half an episode, but okay.
I fucking hate the character limit.
@Screen_Takes 3. I don't think the drama and value of scenes like this should be built exclusively on flashbacks. Outside of the "flashbacks," we also learned that Shaula is in fact capable of lying to and disobeying her "master."
@Screen_Takes 2. If we simplify things the way you do, we'd end up concluding that the Rem and Ram flashback was already told to us in previous episodes through dialogue . The only genuinely new information in the flashbacks is that Rem, in that moment, was glad her sister lost her horn.
@Screen_Takes 1. I don't think the scene where Shaula eats meat is meant to simply show that she's eating meat by herself. As I see it, it shows that she's been "preparing" food for her "master" every day - meaning she's been expecting him to show up any day now, every single day.
@RiftedShard@Vaidik62666 Yeah, I'm sure it wasn't Bleach fans who gave Re:Zero those 6+ thousand negative reviews. It was probably Re:Zero fans themselves. You're not exactly bright, so let me clarify - that was irony.
