What? Subaru is the biggest faggot and isn't cool at all.

>>143433923
I hate him so much
>>
>>143434151
But he represents the average LN reader.
>>
>>143434240
The average LN reader wants to self-inert into a cool guy, not a pathetic fag like Subaru
>>
Stop making threads about Subaru. We already have like 5 threads. Holy shit .

t. Subaru
>>
>>143434259
exactly, some jap readers stopped here because they couldn't handle someone actually like themselves
>>
>>143434259
Isn't it easier to do that with someone you can relate to?
>>
>>143434355
Yes but the whole point is that they want to put themselves in the shoes of an awesome overpowered guy with a harem, not look in the mirror.
>>
>>143434259
>>143434355
Its better to look in the mirror.

Subaru is every LN reader incarnate. The readers just don't want to admit it so they scream in asspain
>>
>>143434355
That is not what self-inserting is about
>>
>>143434423
Lol speak for yourself fuccboi
>>
He's a good protagonist
not that I'd expect most of /a/ to understand though, your autism is so intense that you can't handle anything that isn't a shonen protagonist
>>
>>143433923
I was unable to self insert into Subaru before the last episode took place. Now he's suffered enough to be my vessel in his world

You don't seem to know what a self-insert actually is, subhuman.
>>
>>143434988
have you even seen the anime? he's a complete annoying retard. plus he gets literally cuckolded
>>
>>143434988
Isn't a self insert a character that it's so bland that everyone can just put himself in his shoes? Subaru isn't bland at all, overhuman.

I thought it was because of the Torture, the insanity, followed by best meido being stuck in a coma and nobody besides MC even knowing who she is.

He's a cringy protagonist
not that I'd expect most of /a/ to understand though, your autism is so intense that you can't handle anything that isn't a generic isekai protagonist

No, subhuman. Respect your superiors or else you'll get the hose.

Huh, lad, where's the problem?

What will /a/ do then?
>>
>>143435181
Now I get why would you consider Subaru a self insert, pathetic asshole
>>
>>143435181
It does mean that

Kirito and Basara are self-inserts, Kiyoshi is a self-insert. Darling is a self-insert. Even fucking Yukiteru and Tanukichi are self-inserts.
>>
>>143435258
He eventually becomes another guts in the LN, so you can damn expect /a/ to be all over him when the anime reaches that point.
>>
I can't tell if /a/ loves to bait with Subaru threads or they're just obsessed with him because they see a reflection of themselves in Subaru
>>
>>143435258
Hate him because his perfection makes no sense like anyone with common sense.

Kirito is universally hated like Death Note post L's death
>>
>>143435329
The reason I reply to Subaru threads is to defend him just because he had the guts to ask for Emilia to pay her damn dept.

A self-insert is when the author writes himself into the story you ignorant niggers. When the fuck are you disgusting weebs going to understand that? It seems that watching too many garbage cartoons has distorted your brains.
>>
>>143435517
Watching too much shonen has that kind of effect.
>>
>>143433994
t. self-inserter

>>143435517
Words change definition over time
>>
>>143435517
I bet you're fun at parties, if you even get invited to those
>>
>>143435583
Only if you bother with a garbage medium like anime.
>>
>>143435517
That was the original meaning. Then it became MCs that are blank and made for the reader to project themselves on.
>>
>>143435616
Oh I do. Unlike you pathetic weebs I actually have a life.
>>
>>143435631
Maybe if you go to fanfiction.net or some other site loved by tumblrwhales. even fucking /tv/ uses the term correctly.

>>
>>143433923
The MC is shitty self-insert wish-fulfillment for beta cuck
>>
Are Subaru apologists for real?
>A-At least he isnt a Gary Stu!
>You guys don't get how normal human act! he is realistic MC!

Subarufags are so desperate for a good MC that's not a Gary Stu or beta harem MC to the point of taking another kind of shit like Subaru.

Don't mind me, just posting the best self insert ever.
>>
>>143435876
Subaru is at least accurate to how LN readers act/are.

He's shit but he's above all the Kiritos/Basara brand blandies and Shinji's descendants that didn't evolve properly like Takato and Simon
>>
>>143435876
There's nothing wrong with having a flawed protagonist, you're not always supossed to like the mc.
>>
>>143435517
You shouldn't bother. /a/ is an even bigger shithole these days.

This is a good protag
>>
>>143436262
They're both good
Gintoki also fucks up a lot at times and does cringe stuff, it just happens that it is lessened because it is comedic whereas Subaru is actual cringe
>>
>>143436205
>shows him dying over and over again
>shows him having a mental break down
>shows him trying to save a village of children

like trying to say jesus was written as an unlikeable MC

Assuming you're both serious I'm having really ahrd time deciding which one of you is more autistic

Why are you even posting here then

>>143436371
But Jesus never threw a bitch fit when he was about to be crucified
>>
>>143436442
he also wasn't written as relateable
>>
>>143435631
You are a retard. The only character I remember self inserting as is Satou from NHK, and he is far from blank.

Even if that bullshit you're saying is real he's still above the other self-inserts.

>>143437288
true. even donovan self-inserted his big black cock into his anus
>>
>>143437269
MOST LOVED you mean.
I'd beat you up if you meant hated right haha

>>143437301
for comedy i admit he above other
>>
>>143433923
>Has some latent magic (shadow power)
>Has the best ability there is (literally cannot be killed permanently)

He actually has some seriously op powers. And even if he didn't care about fighting with them he could use the death thing to make a shit ton of money by betting.

>See some race
>Oh hello cliff
>Bet on race, make shit ton of cash money
>Repeat the next day
>>

The original power fantasy self insert.

Why doesn't he just go full Chosen Undead and curb stomp the "bosses" after getting wrecked a million different times? Why is he so attached to the white haired cunt?

>>
>>143437174
Underrated post.
>>
>>143439091
To be honest, this would be my main gripe with the show. In a world full of so many opportunities he practically fell in love at first sight and this is what we've got
>>
>>143439091
His only weakness would be if someone figured out the pattern to his revives and captured him in some inescapable prison for that period then killed him.
>>
I haven't watched this anime but I just got back from /o/ and I'm confused why people don't like subarus here
>>
>>143433923
I dunno, for a NEET loser he's doing pretty well considering the circumstances. And how much real time has passed, a month? He's beaten down some brick walls with his weak bare hands while putting on a smile, pathetic outbursts are to be expected.
>>
Subaru is made to bait people into self-inserting and then spit on them.
>>
>>143439304
HAHAHAHA didn't work on me because I liked the cringe

Like some Seath's Library Prison shit

But I doubt there's much of a pattern to it. If Satella or whoever the hell is coordinating this were tricked into checkpointing him in a horrible situation, I don't see why they couldn't just reload from an earlier save. Never mind that I doubt there's anyone that could corner him like that.
>>
>>143433923
Absolutely loved this episode, really surprised me with the fact that he got his ass handed to him for autistically interrupting an election.
>>
>>143433994
kek..autistic it is
>>
>>143440658
Why didn't he commit sudoku at the end of that episode so he could unfuck his relationship with cute elf lady?
>>
>>143443223
He values greatly his relationships with others, since he doesn't know when his last chekpoint is he would risk returning to Arc2.

Also he thinks that he has a limited amount of lives, like in a game
>>
>>143443223

Didn't you mean Seppuku?
>>
>>143443402
i think it's established that he loses a piece of his soul every time he dies

"Self-insert" does not mean "main character you don't like who gets anywhere near a girl you do like".

Now this is a self-insert. A character explicitly modeled using some of the author's traits and intended to be the reader's viewpoint into the fictional world the author created.
