I think Subaru's Authority immunity might just end up being chalked to one thing: Return by Death. As an Authority, it isn't strictly more powerful than the others, but its retention of Subaru's soul (Life Sword can not end his life permenantly) is what's important here
@wisanyanya I don't know about any of that, but Shaula is way too... desperate, infantile, for Subaru. Its too pitiful for him, because he doesn't see her affirmations as something natural.
@Llybirdee@Itay20052 Focusing just on his irrational anger here, yeah that part was always interesting to me. Subaru also makes some weird comment towards a censored name, which is kiiind of similar to how he's slightly aware of the Shadow Garden despite not remembering it and other weird things.
@MRCakeDragonMan@emiliaelior Emilia is physically strong, but even her neck would easily snap if Subaru made any effort. And more than that, if she made no means to resist like she did. If she actually felt threatened, then she would probably stop him faster than he could squeeze and twist, but not after.
@Squido555 People who think Dess was an abuser are super wrong but people who also think that it's an experience Kris would look back on fondly are also wrong. Even if it's a hollow toy, if it's to the point of making your head hurt remembering it, it definitely wasn't done light-heartedly.
