Around vol 4 they did, but most of those nips that did thought it was another battle harem and got fucked right in the ass. A new fanbase has now formed around it that are mostly consisting of Beserk, Evangelion and Helck fans.

How is Stray Dogs so popular? It's horribly paced and has cringey obnoxious humor. It's so generic. Nothing about it stands out as worthwhile.

>>141142943
I don't think alot of people would self insert as a guy who carries his comatose girlfreind everywhere with him, just saying.
>>
>>141143015
Is he doing that yet? I noted the set up specifically for a reason.

Fujos. And well, maybe its because its not as shit as people thought it would be.

>>141143138
That's not completely true. Clearly the later events of the story aren't wish fulfillment while I'd argue the earlier events are.

>>141143168
He's self-insert because he's generic and clearly designed for the express and sole purpose of the viewer relating to him. And I don't understand what you're saying as far as the set up being unpleasant.

>>141143205
Yeah, dying is painful, but the guy still gets to be the big hero when it's all said and done.

Are you joking? He saves everyone in the fourth episode, and everyone starts giving him favors and shit for his valiant actions. If that's not being a hero, I don't know what is.

Maybe the premise, but it takes all of one episode for him to learn that the world he was transported to fucking sucks

Unless I'm suddenly in another dimension where loli shows are popular, numerous and sell well.

He is pretty obviously not from /a/, just like you.

His actions are pretty thankless considering he's not allowed to tell anyone about the looping or all the shit he's done to make certain things possible.
I can only imagine a pretty fucked up masochist wanting to self insert as Subaru. He's a character you sympathize for and want to succeed but you'd never want to be him.

Cause the modern anime audience has hilariously terrible and shallow taste. Literally everything comes down to characer design and somewhat pretense of the premise. Just about nothing else remotely matters

>>
>>141143299

If that's the case why is it separated from the next dumb as fuck show by less than 20 votes. What's funny is this was all predetermined before the season started when people were all over the seasonal popular people action clusterfuck and seasonal reincarnation story. Do we have a seasonal trapped in an MMO BTW?
>>
>>141143483
>>141143510
Alright, cool, there's a twist. Doesn't change the fact that he saved everyone and still gets to play the hero, at least for a time. And moreover, he did still save all of those people's lives, even if he doesn't get praise for it.

>>141143433
"Fucking sucks" is an overstatement, seeing as it's still a fantasy world that he gets to be an incredibly important part of due to his power.

>>141143492
Again, he's still boring and generic and only exists for the viewer to project on. Just because shitty things happen to him doesn't mean this isn't true.

Funny thing is - I posted the original post that started the whole flamewar and I've not posted even once since.

So maybe it's one assburger that cannot accept no one like his edgy niwaka anime? Because I don't like Re:Zero as well.
I mean come the fuck on how many escapism I get hit by a truck and get teleported to a fantasy world shit stories does Japan need?

It's interesting to see shows that you expect to be fujoshit or otaku pandering actually play out that way in the demographics. I've noticed that one of the ways Western anime fans differ from those in Japan is the fact that shoujo and the like actually have a significantly larger male following than among the Japanese (and the same with women actually watching ecchi and fanservice aimed at men). I don't know if this is because gender interests are less separated in the West than in Japan or if Western anime fans just see all anime as the same monolithic entity and watch it regardless of the intended audience.

>look he's like me and he's doing his best in that amazing fantasy world surrounded by all those cute Western looking girls. I could be a cool guy if I get hit by a truck too.

It is escapism. In a way it's even more sad than the typical type of escapism because a typical LN like that could inspire an otaku a bit. In this case, there's not even that, he's just a fucking piece of shit and remains like that. Still he's a part of the story.

So it makes them think - ah, it's obviously the world I live in. In a fantasy world I'd be more interesting even if I remain a shit.

So much worse. The implication you'll get something for doing jackshit.

And before you ask, yes, there is an LN about a fat otaku shoving two enko kosai sluts to the ground. But if I remember it correctly the three of them got smashed by the truck anyway and went to the fantasy land together.

Don't remember what it was called though.

No, it isn't. This is describing a very specific circumstance in which a character is put into an exciting and interesting situation through absolutely no action of his own. There's not even a plot device explaining why he specifically needs to be important. It could have been you, me, or anyone else. That's why it's wish fulfillment.

Not that anon you're replying to, but I feel that's essentially part of its popularity. Normally, people SI into awesome characters as escapism to feel better about themselves. This is the opposite. People want him to suffer so they can feel pity for him and be glad they're not him. Conversely, there's also a minor bit of escapism as massive amount of suffering is a key part of many betrayal/revenge fanfics. They want to be able to SI him to be able to fix everything in his stead. Granted, this can horribly backfire if they take it too far in the suffering department as the readers feel there's no payoff in continue to reading it and simply stop.

Take this with a grain of salt but having been through the edgy teenager phase and read many naruto betrayal/revenge fics, I can say, people don't SI into a guy that's constantly getting ripped apart, but they SI into him so they can go full AU in that they can revel in the suffering to fuel their hatred so they can power-up their dark side to kill god/defy fate/rule the world or some other bullshit. On the flip side, the female fanfic writers does the opposite by reveling in the pity they have for the suffering person and try to mother-hen all the pain away.

Constant shitposting and constat shillers trying to defend it. Everyoone is mad becuase there are people who legitimately think its just another SAO clone or tried to ride off Konosuba, blame digibro for that one. Then there are the people who go full autismo due to constantly being bombarded by this shit that they went on outright crusades.
