Do you really think you could do better than Subaru, knowing just as little as he knows about everything?

It's not a bad strategy, you could use those decades to become a kung fu master or learn magic

Or at least learn how to read. You could even research the conflict on your own and respawn with confidential knowledge. Who knows what you'd find out twenty or thirty years after the fact?

I can certainly have less deaths than him, because I wouldn't help Emilia after the first death. Actually, I probably wouldn't have ever come across her in the first place.

Anyone who thinks they'd do significantly better is just a lying faggot.

Yes, Subaru acts like an idiot and spouts memes, but he's not retarded. Most of his plans and such are pretty reasonable.

He's also likely more athletic than 99% of /a/.

Most of us would probably die just as much, and just spout less autistic stuff while doing it.
>>
>>141236942
A little better. I definitely would not be killing myself in order to fix the past or anything like that since there's always the risk that my powers could just stop working and then i'm legit dead.

But after my first couple of deaths I'd start documenting major events, thinking about how to recreate them and try to go for the best outcomes if possible. I'm also a lot physically weaker though so I'd have to figure out something to make up for it. Probably find or make an emergency shiv at least.
>>
>>141236942
I wouldn't waste precious time being a shitty butler.

Requesting to be the assistant of the Librarian Beatrice would be a much better use of time.

I could get access to books this way and training from Beatrice to be a better assistant by being tutored in writing and reading, whereas compared to Subaru's current position, he barely has a few hours before bed to learn how to read or write.

Subaru does this though.

He killed himself like, what, once? And that's because it was a loop with literally no viable future.

>>141240386
Pretty much this. And you could argue that sticking with Emilia makes the most sense, dick/heart aside, as she's the only person he's met that can help him with his situation magically/is willing to take him in (though I guess there's Reinhard if he'd had the chance to choose).
>>
>>141236942
My smartphone is at least better than Subaru.

Also, the importance of a camera in a world without cameras is very downplayed by Sabaru.

In the old days, intel of enemy fortresses and bases could only be done by first hand sight by spies and only be described through words or quick sketches by spies with good drawing ability.

A camera is much more convenient than on the demand sketching and bonus points, the image is in color.

Also, Wanted Posters sometimes fail to depict what the actual Wanted Person looks like so a camera is also handy for wanted criminals or wannabe bounty hunters.

Isn't it common sense to head to an adventure's guild first to gather information?

Subaru made the mistake of going to places like bars for information.

You don't really want to go to place that serves alcohol for information unless you are strong enough.

Most fiction shows that guilds don't allow alcohol on premises with the exception of KonoSuba since it was Half Guild/ Half Restaurant.
>>
>>141241127
Is there even an adventure guild in this series? Because I don't remember Subaru ever going to one.

Totally agree with this. Only downside I can think of is that as soon as the battery dies the magic is done. Unless he also got one of those mechanical emergency chargers.

>Isn't it common sense to head to an adventure's guild first to gather information?
We don't even know if those exist. And how would Subaru, with no money, reading/writing, or knowledge/background do anything there?

He has absolutely nothing to his name or no abilities that would get him work, beyond his phone, which he only knows is worth anything due to the fact he decided to help Emilia.

If you start asking for a world map, world history, or anything that you need, they'll just stare at you like you're crazy and kick you out once they see you're useless.

Those guilds are in place for actual adventurers looking for job information. They're not a seminar of geography/history/society.

Except in fiction, a lot of low level quests in adventure's guild is essentially being a bodyguard or tour guide and the payment fee doesn't always have to be money.

Helping someone acquire common herbs in a nearby forest in return for a cheap potion or common good is a common occurrence.

Subaru could have offered his bowl of instant ramen and bag of chips in exchange for anybody wanting an easy quest to do.

>>141241777
Speaking of those, does he ever get to eat them?

I can't believe that this concept still hasn't been explored in anime yet. Obviously if your actions were robbed of their consequences then you'd begin to question your moral precepts.

I suppose it's just too dark for an anime and too deep for a hentai series.
>>
>>141241898
Pretty sure the Steins;Gate VN had something like this, maybe I am just missremembering it though.

>>
>>141241898
>too dark
Even Undertale explored this concept, with the main villain saying he started out as a hero but got so goddamn bored he started killing people for fun

It's pretty much the obvious conclusion to save-scumming. If actions were devoid of consequences shit would get dark fast
>>
>>141241985
Are you that much of a dumbass like Subaru to wander dark alleyways always from busy public streets?

Not even I would do that in real life or are you telling me you like to walk in shady parts of town?

>>141241955
No, Okabe doesn't rape anyone. He just repeats everything in the last day to escape from reality and eventually went mad from the sheer repetition. Maybe he would rape Suzuha for real if S;G was 18+.
>>
>>141242065
In Subaru's defense, he's Japanese. You ever walk around dark alleys there? It's surprisingly safe and comfy.
>>
I am surprised Subaru didn't try selling his tracksuit.

If I was wearing a tracksuit like Subaru, I would head to a fancy clothing store or find a merchant who deals in clothing and show off my tracksuit.

If the clothing store owner or merchant gets interested in the concept of a tracksuit, I would try selling it for as high as possible in exchange for money and regular clothing.
>>
>>141242116
Well no, but doesn't he push Daru in front of a bus or something because he got bored by all the shit repeating. Has been way too long since I read it so I guess it's time for a re-read.

I don't think so, no.

Excluding his chuuniism, he didn't take that much of wrong steps

>>141242040
>Even Undertale explored this concept, with the main villain saying he started out as a hero but got so goddamn bored he started killing people for fun
Weirdly, rape is often treated as a more dark subject than murder.

Imagine if Frisk had the option to rape Toriel in Undertale. People would be horrified.

I think there will eventually be a time where a save point moves ahead before he wants it to and that'll be the impetus for a quick downward spiral in his mood. Just guessing though, I haven't read the WN.
>>
>>141242429
Well, a lot of it goes, but you also need to think a lot more seriously about when something is ACTUALLY chuuni vs when it's a mask he puts on because he'd go insane otherwise or at least MORE insane. Because he's constantly on the edge of a pretty bad fucking precipice that goes on forever, and he gets the sense at some point that if he lets himself totally lose it there really isn't anything that's going to save him. He could go into a cycle and just suffer eternally. Trying to assume some role and give himself some purpose or pretend it's "not very serious" or "I'm a chosen one I can figure out something" sort of blurs from genuine to "desperately clinging onto something".
>>
>>141243560
I guess it's just his interaction with Emilia. He always turned into a retarded mouthbreather when she's around. He's not like that with the other girls.

I'm starting to wish for her to become less relevant.

Would you say he's literally you?

>>141243983
I would say he is figuratively me
>>
>>141236942
Subaru's problem is that he charges headfirst into situations that get him killed.

So all you have to do to do better than Subaru is not be a retard. If you know there are punks looking to mug you in a dark alley, don't go into the dark alley. If you know someone's going to try to kill you if you enter the loot house, don't enter the loot house. If you know someone's going to murder you in cold blood at a mansion after 5 days, maybe it'd be a good idea to get the fuck out of there and never associate with those psychopaths.

Anyone who values their own life can do better than Subaru.
>>
>>141244171
>avoid all those situations
>live some meager life as a peasant somewhere, since realistically you're worthless
>die somehow, maybe violently, maybe old age
>reset to the save point because yandere witch

You can choose to avoid those situations, but you'll never progress by doing so. And just living mediocre lives (no money, contacts, knowledge, skills, etc) will become old and likely drive you insane very quickly.

Not to mention the number of trial by error deaths you'll likely go through just learn how to live an average life in a medieval fantasy world with no help, friends, money, or anything.

Is that really doing better?
>>
>>141244418

Compared to endless suffering? Yes.
>>
>>141244171
>If you know there are punks looking to mug you in a dark alley, don't go into the dark alley.
He learnt that one the hard way, but he did at least eventually learn to deal with that situation.
>If you know someone's going to try to kill you if you enter the loot house, don't enter the loot house.
I mean I've just discovered I'll be reset to the same spot if I'm killed anyway but fuck trying to save that qt girl's life or anything lol
>If you know someone's going to murder you in cold blood at a mansion after 5 days, maybe it'd be a good idea to get the fuck out of there
On the last night? It's an interesting thought. If I were him I'd hide somewhere and try to get a glimpse of the killer so that I at least know who it is.
>and never associate with those psychopaths.
That use of plurals is either a spoiler or you're way too distrusting of other people.
>>
>>141244717
The killer is the red man
>>
>>141244558
But isn't dying and losing the entire life you worked for over and over only to be put back into that alley endless suffering?

Some lives you might die of old age as a farmer. Others you might simply die in a mugging a few days later. Some deaths might be horrible and slow, others fast. And you'll never move towards figuring your situation out.

There's still suffering.
>>
>>141244815

What makes you think you won't trigger autosaves? You have to follow the plot exactly the same as Subaru to move forward? By that logic no one can do better than Subaru.
>>
>>141244171
>If you know someone's going to murder you in cold blood at a mansion after 5 days, maybe it'd be a good idea to get the fuck out of there and never associate with those psychopaths.

Except he hung out around the mansion instead of outright leaving.

It's even more suspicious.
>>
>>141236942
Better?
No, not really.
Less stupid and inept when communicating with others?
Definitely.

Don't get me wrong, I have my own problems that would get me in some serious shit in his situation but I damn well know I could communicate and relate to people better than this sperg.

I am definitely smarter than Subaru, though I am admittedly probably weaker physically since he's apparently in pretty good shape. Willpower wise we're probably about the same.

There's a wide range of pain thresholds and you can normalize/numb yourself to anything. I had chronic appendicitis for several years. No physicians realized it because I just put up with the pain when you're normally buckled over. As a child a bully stuck a needle in the back of my neck while I was playing a card game. He was planning to just prick me and laugh when I jumped, but because I just kept playing he got the whole god damn needle in.

Professional wrestlers get banged up on nightly basis. They just take some painkillers and keep performing even when they need major surgery.

After dying once or twice, and knowing exactly what the pain is like and how long it lasts, I could believe a person can endure confronting a quick death. It's not like being lit on fire or skinned alive or crucified.

Haha, to each their own I suppose.
The thing with respawning is that you can do anything really. You get to play the bad cop for a few lifetimes, then the good cop, then neutral, then everything else.

Personally I love the idea of breaking a princess for untold ages and then turning around and becoming her husband, best friend or even a court jester, then killing yourself to torture her for years. She would have no idea.
My guess is that people would just stop being people at some point.
>>
>>141248765
I guess, once you become numb to something you don't really feel any backlash from it.
>>
>>141248765
I think it would really depend on the person, wouldn't it?

I'd probably try about every shitty thing I ever felt like I wanted to try and had the stomach for, although I can imagine people truly being "moralfags" about it or really being determined to make something good out of what they were doing or achieve some greater outcome.

Like, are you playing the game of life with an arbitrary start, or are you somehow missing a "save" point?

Can you perhaps begin playing some other game at some point?

Even the most feckless and gormless sadist will probably accumulate enough of a sense of boredom and overall experience to transcend this kind of experience you speak of. Even if only for the sake of greater acts of self aggrandizement and sadism on a truly cosmic scale.

Or you might want to make an end of desire, but that's all Buddha type shit. I'd cross that line when I came to it, and probably well after I was truly God, the Demiurge, or the Devil.

Another fun alternative would be incarnating as either random people who are at very least not downgrades from your mental and physical abilities in your last life, either related to you or not. But in the same world over a course of time. You could appreciate your accomplishments in the past knowingly, and either reveal or not reveal the fact that it's you.

>>141241898
The problem is that there's no guarantee that that he can savescum indefinitely. He has no real control over the ability and no idea when the "save point" changes, so there's no guarantee he can just reverse the consequences whenever he wants to.

>>
>>141253686
Dunno but we know that the person who summoned him was the Witch Of Envy who is the equivalent to satan in that world.

I wouldn't need more than 4 tries to find out that I've been respawning. Probably 3 at most though I would attemt to purposefully kill myself at the second loop.

Have any of you guys ever had a dream where you die in the end? Shit is horrible and if you're not aware it's a dream it's even worse. But then you wake up and everything is fine again. So yeah, I would say he can do better.
>>
>>141236942

Honestly, I would probably just train gradually like the guy in All You Need is Kill. Not to make myself hyper-broken or anything, but because it is absolutely clear that I completely lack the basic skills to survive in a swords-and-sorcery world.

Like, logically the best option would be to resolve things in the same paradigm as everyone else. You now have infinite time to get yourself up to at least basic competency, so what's the hurry?

I mean, dying really fucking sucks. I would probably be completely supine from the sheer agony of my first death.
>>
>>141257978
>Have any of you guys ever had a dream where you die in the end? Shit is horrible and if you're not aware it's a dream it's even worse.
I always seem to conveniently wake up a moment before severe pain would have kicked in. I've had a dream where I've 'woken up' into another dream a few times before though. That sense of being trapped in an unknown reality and 'loading to a save point' against your own control can be a truly horrifying experience so it's something I can really empathise with Subaru about.
>>
How long until the airing?

>>
>>141238339
The curse stench apparently only gets stronger each time you die so you should be good as long you don't die.

But then again, everyone who isn't Subaru would do better seeing as they wouldn't be constantly chasing after Emilia and getting fucked over.
>>
>>141246826
I wouldn't keep going to the same point of my death even once, if I even remotely found out, "oh that route leads me to death" I wouldn't do it, it's something called rational thinking
>>
>>141243670

I don't really understand why he's putting her on a pedestal like that. It's not like there aren't equally attractive girls about.
>>
>>141259760
Not to mention he should have realized that being with Emilia keeps killing him and he should haul ass from that mansion ASAP.
>>
>>141259860

Yeah, I mean, I think you'd draw a correlation!

All his deaths stem directly from the fact he's hanging around her. Shit's fucked.
>>
>>141259760
Unless, its something magical causing him to fall in love with her.
>>
>>141259887
It's a metaphor for dating and marriage
>>
>>141236942
Well I'd certainly be taking it a lot more seriously and being much more cautious than what he's being. Although there seems to be too many unknown variables to the point it would be hard to build a solid plan around unless, like him, you just die over and over again until you figure it out. Honestly though it feels like he just makes things much worse by putting himself in these bad situations by associating with dangerous people. Still though, don't know the true conditions of his curse. It would be fucked up if you went years building a life only to die and end up at the beginning because of an unknown trigger.
>>
>>141259887
I start to think that the witch has warped his mind when she transfered him.

Can't read the LN or WN so I can't be what is actually th clue for this supposed strangeness.
>>
Yes. I would find a way to meet up with the witch(?) from the first episode, tell her of my power and offer to be her ally. Her side clearly has its shit together. Emilia's side is too incompetent to deserve to win, and I have no more reason to support her than the witch.
>>
>>141259976

Honestly, I'd have lit out on her after the big brawl with the assassin. Maybe asked the Sword Sage to put in a good word for me, let me get into the Academy or something.

Fuck, I'd have tried anything else other than staying around her!

It's not like he couldn't spend a lifetime or so training.

Subaru is a great MC because he's heart first head second.
Characters who are head first like eggs from Inahoe's Wild Space Adventures, Batman, etc are fun to watch because they win.
Subaru is fun to watch because he loses. I'm enjoying this show the most this season even after reading the spoilers.

This show is still super enjoyable, it's just that his deaths are 100% preventable since they depend on one condition that he can easily change.

Every single one of his deaths except the time the thugs accidentally stabbed him is because he's involved with Emilia, which he can easily change.

Because he wants to fug her really bad. His real saviour was Reinhardt, considering he was the one who managed to beat Elsa, so it's not like he's even indebted to her.
