Tappei accidentaly made the perfect wife when making Rem. How did he do it and is it a case of accidentally hitting gold?

Attention all employees.
We've been receiving an influx of complaints from our esteemed clients who have purchased and ventured into the Re:Zero universe. It appears that one "Reinhard van Astrea" has been causing issues, preventing users from fulfilling their power fantasies. Upper management is threatening to fire us unless we come up with ways to stop him (kill or otherwise put him out of commission) as customer satisfaction is a key part of our business model.
R&D will be working with us and can provide employees with anything they may need to achieve this objective. With their help we can a) prevent Reinhard from obtaining any further help or powerups from Od Laguna (he will only have what he has now and no more, including stopping his Phoenix blessing from activating more than once) b) move any beings into the Re:Zero dimension to fight him or vice-versa.
>*Note from R&D - beings/Reinhard will retain their powers and can use them as if they were in their home dimension, even if changing dimension would cancel them (e.g. can use magic even if the Re:Zero dimension doesn't have the requirements for them to recharge their magic power)
Our branch's CEO has also approved a cash prize and promotion for employees with solutions that don't depend on R&D.
General ideas will do fine (e.g. "teleport them onto sun") but please remember we want to solve this problem quickly (no long game/plots), economically (omnipotent beings are expensive) and quietly (stopping Reinhard must have a minimal impact on the world, don't destroy it or we have nothing to sell!)

>>279924194
Reinhard's most relevant skills:
>Immediately comes back to life ONCE upon death
>Knows what Divine Protections a being has (if any)
>Immune to magic buffs, magic debuffs and Re:Zero curses
>Resistance to general explosion damage, general water damage and Miasma
>Cut the damage of water magic
>80% reflection of water magic, 80% reduction of fire magic damage, 80% absorption of wind magic, 80% effect decrease from earth magic, 80% nullification of Re:Zero yin magic, can split the transfer of 80% of Re:Zero yang magic to another target
>Immunity from sickness and disease. Resistance to harmful drugs, poison and alcohol
>Exceptionally resistant to the effects of mental contamination and brainwashing attacks
>Prevention against sustaining burns of any kind
>Immune to being hit by lightning

>Change the trajectory of thrown weapons
>Ranged attacks always hit target
>Strength increase when exposed to any of: a blue sky, rainy sky, morning sky, night sky
>Immune to surprise attacks. First attack against opponent always lands.
>Attacks (including surprise) experienced for the first time cause an instinctive counter or dodge - unless physically impossible to avoid or counter.
>Speed increase when attacked by a previously experienced attack
>Becomes stronger the more blood he loses
>Very strong with bare hands
>Sees trajectory of sword strikes as white lines

>Move at swift speeds
>Unaffected by wind or wind resistance (has cooldown)
>Can kick and fly through air
>Can walk on water (or sink normally) and clouds. Unable to sink into sand
>Vision unaffected by fog
>Knows where any escape route is and when someone is up to no good
>Telepathic communication

>Knows how to use and master any item they hold
>Use any weapon masterfully
>Can ride any kind of vehicle or animal
>Can manipulate ball or spherical shaped objects by interacting with them (e.g. fireballs or stars)
>Solve complex math problems
>Gardening is easier, revitalizes plants and flowers when near

>>279924225
Would he be able to defeat Ainz?

Rem got such an erotic body

>>279924127 (OP)
if she was perfect she wouldn't have done nothing for the last 10 years

>>279924773
Blame Tappei for not allowing her to shine brigther than his half devil of a waifu. He also fucked up Crusch for the crime of being preferred by the fandom over Moblia.

>>279924127 (OP)
>case of accidentally hitting gold
didn't he sideline her for exactly that? Since she overshadowed his beloved Emilia?

>>279925198
Yeah sadly, he started to shit things up until we reached the shit that is arc 7, 8 and 9.

>>279924713
She's petite but extremely hot

>>279924127 (OP)
you mean Petra

>>279926116
More like Shaula

elsa wife, yes or no?

>>279926574
To me its Rem, always

>>279924773
hackpei had to """"kill"""" her because she was better than his girl emilia, but he couldn't actually kill her because the fans (mostly remfags) would go crazy

>>279926624
God himself would go crazy if Rem was killed off for good. Didn't you hear what happened to the house of that poor sob who dared draw a Rem ntr doujin? Also rumor is that Remfags stole his cat

Can Pandora actually accomplish her goals by herself?
Anime-only here but it seems that her vanity doesn't allow her to actually act herself.
She may be able to rewrite reality but only to set the stage in her favor.
If someone needs to die, she can't kill them, she needs to manipulate, create illusions or outright spawn someone/-thing to kill her target, but literally can't do it herself.

>>279927204
>Didn't you hear what happened to the house of that poor sob who dared draw a Rem ntr doujin? Also rumor is that Remfags stole his cat
what, really? based remchads lmao

>>279927638
>Didn't you hear what happened to the house of that poor sob who dared draw a Rem ntr doujin?
His USP that he bought to protect his work PC exploded and his house caught fire when he was out. He posted all about this on twitter.
> Also rumor is that Remfags stole his cat
His cat died in the fire.

>>279926624
if tappei actually hated rem he would have killed her for real at the end of arc 3 to end any possible waifu war before the anime even aired, youd have to be a genuine retard to look at the way the story has progressed and think he just decided to put her in a coma because he got mad

>>279926574
Why is her bridal outfit more conservative than her regular dress?

>>279927825
He did that because otherwise he would actually have to make some progress about Emilia relationship with Subaru instead of just dragging it until the end of the series.

>>279927914
Because her regular outfit got a redesign from Mama.

>>279927666
imagine her spinning like that on your __________balls.______________

>>279927825
He hates her but she's his cash cow. If he killed her then all his fanbase would drop to Zero (kek).
Ironic that he has written characters far better than Moblia and he has limited them all off somehow (Crusch amnesiac and aids, Shaula turned into a pet by Moblia herself, Rem potatoed out of the plot)

>>279924194
Greetings everyone, my name is Wilhelm van Astrea. I came here to remind you that Reinhard von Faggot is an asshole who you shouldn't trust or call a hero, because he only shows up when there's a chance to kill my wife. Instead place your hopes on the new hero, the hero who is at least 100 times more awesome than Rein-hard-for-furfags von Mega-Cuck, I'm of course talking about my half-yellow half-negro grandson Natsuki Subaru-dono. Not only is he more useful than that ginger asshole, he also is an expert when it comes to exterminating witch cultists and legendary witch beasts. Also fuck furfags, fuck Hoshin jews and most importantly Fuck Reinhard.

>>279928800
GODhelm-sama...

>>279927825
>if tappei actually hated rem he would have killed her for real at the end of arc 3 to end any possible waifu war before the anime even aired
This bitch again. I told you the other day that arc 3 readership was in the 100ks monthly unique visits. Rem was popular even in the WN. Hackpei and his editor told Otsuka to draw her cuter in the first LN illustration because of that. So what the fuck should the hack have done other than not killing her off for good? Use your two fucking brain cells.
>look at the way the story has progressed and think he just decided to put her in a coma because he got mad
Both things can be true at the same time. He got mad and didn't know what to do with her character without compromising both the story and moblia's role.

Remfags are so fucking ungrateful it's unreal.

>>279928913
If you think he doesnt hate her, then shut the fuck up. Arc 7 is there. The countless times he slipped online are there. He blocked a Rem fan a few weeks ago. He didn't retweet the main S4 KV, the one with Rem in the middle. That's the last 3 months alone. Fuck you.

I love Emilia

>>279929005
>Remfags are so annoying that the writer started to hate the character.

Checks out.

>>279928965
Grateful for what you retard? For creating her, milking her for money and serving up shit on top of shit? The last time we should be grateful was in 20 fucking 16.

>>279929012
Shut up Tappei, and work on writing more of the story. We need to see Subaru breed Rem before the story is over.

i love Elsa

>>279928913
NTA, but Rem isn't the only person to be removed from the story.
The entirety of the Crusch Camp and the Felt Camp were absent from the main story for a fucking decade

>>279929070
Oh so you have finally admitted it. The hack hates her. End of discussion.

>>279929075
She's not the FMC, but you guys demand her to be.
Tappei will shower you with side-stories, IFs, content after content.

What kind of waifu get's an whole novel about how perfect of a wife she is?

Jesus fuck you guys are fucking spoiled as fuck. If Tappei really ended up hating the character, it's justified. What a bunch of fucking annoying, spoiled, ungrateful, assholes.

>>279924194
>>279924225
anime only so pls correct me if wrong
>Dimensional travel character. Kaguya (Naruto) - she can kinda intstantly shift everyone nearby into a different dimension. She can pretty much just exit and leave him there with no way out.
>Any time manipulator. Specifically those that manipulate time in general instead of as an attack. I thought about a murderhobo stopping time to make travel "instant" between locations, stumbling onto Reinhard then just causially killing him. Not sure what to do about the second life though.
>Speedsters. Bascially time manipultator again. They move too fast for Reinhard to keep up. Like the fast kid from X-Men but anyone fast enough could theoretically kill him ("physically impossible to avoid or counter")
>Exceptionally long range non-projectile attack - Darth Vader force choke. Like when he choked out the captain on another ship in space, but he's gotta be far enough away that Reinhard (after reviving) won't reach and kill him.
>Anyone with a Death Note. Interesting to see how it would turn out, maybe you'd have to write the name twice and if the "mind control" would work. Needless to say you could do this from anywhere.
>Fast exsanguination. Tricky since he gets stonger but anyone who could manipulate blood at a high level could kill Reinhard, especially if it's a passive ability.
>Anything that attacks the soul directly. Sounds like it would bypass a lot of Reinhard's bodily resistances. Grim Reaper type character or items. For example a suicide attack or fast character (3rd/4th Hokage from Naruto) could seal his soul away.
>High level illusion or mental attack. Possibly Geas or Uchiha mindfuck (Reinhard can't into magic). Freddy Krueger going into his dream; he doesn't have any powers in a dream so ez, right?
>This one sounds funny and not gonna work but Claymore grill wielding sword so fast he can't see shit with all the white lines
>>279924478
I think so but Ainz has a lot of items that could tip the scales.

>>279929197
Left ooks like a Tranny.

>>279927825
If he didn't put her in a coma Subaru would have had it way too easy and he would be banging Rem and neglecting Emilia way too much.

>>279927825
> if tappei actually hated rem he would have killed her for real
Tappei is a coward.
9 Arcs in and the only permadeath is Priscilla

>>279929164
You fucking retarded faggot. Priscilla is not the FMC and she was actually treated well in Vollachia. Rem got removed for 3 fucking arcs and turned into a bitchy useless no screentime ragdoll when she returned. I don't demand her to be treated like a FMC. I want her to be treated like an actual major supporting character. Even if no development but she got her memories back day 1 would have been fine. Otto, garfiel beako dont need shit but they are still likeable. Why the fuck did rem have to be made unlikeable for some drama bullshit? All she needed was to be there as her former self and no one would give a fuck.

>>279929164
>She's not the FMC
Nobody really is the "FMC". Every arc basically has a new main girl. This time its Petra. Emilia has never carried an arc on her own except for arc 1.

>>279929318
Subaru suffering is more important than good writing. It's not rocket science to understand Tappei's decisions.

279929318
>Why the fuck did rem have to be made unlikeable for some drama bullshit? All she needed was to be there as her former self and no one would give a fuck.

Because Glutonny ate her name. She woke up in a place with a retard who smelled like the literal devil's asshole and who wanted to abandon a child.

Rem's nature is to be distrustful, impulsive and emotionally driven. Tappei wrote what is naturally progression on the history and he went a little overboard once. What a fucking iliterate faggot you are.

>>279929318
if rem woke up normally in vollachia it would've been a fucking cakewalk sorry

>>279929373
It's Emilia.

>>279929219
That's Itachi 'the walking Holocaust' Uchiha (it's originally a male character, baalbuddy drew it as a grill and they have a pretty distinctive style. I can see where you're coming from though).

>>279929405
It would've been too easy for Subaru without the drama and Tappei obviously wanted him to have to warm up to Rui which Rem forced on him.
If Rem woke up in tact its probably likely they would've killed Rui right away or dropped her somewhere like Subaru planned.

>>279929421
Is it really though? Even in arc 4 which was Emilia's last character development Beatrice and Ram had a lot of screentime. Beatrice was arguably more important overall.

>>279926574
Until death do us part.

>>279929480
Tappei incopetence on developing his FMC isn't an argument, she still is the FMC.

>>279929446
>If Rem woke up in tact its probably likely they would've killed Rui right away or dropped her somewhere like Subaru planned.
Or not. This is arc 3 Rem after Subaru, not arc 2.

>>279929536
'She's the FMC because I say she is' isn't an argument either.

>>279929590
I'm not going to spend all night trying to explain to a retard that the sky is blue.
>But what about during the night? Huh? Huuuuh?
Okay.

>>279929574
If Subaru explained that Rui is a Sin Archbishop Rem would've agreed with him immediately and he would have no reason to keep that from her if she woke up with her memories intact.

>>279929536
What if he is doing on purpose, what if the FMC turns out to be Satella all along and Emilia is just the retarded vessel.

>>279929508
>expect to part within the next minute

>>279929627
But rui became a retarded child. Rem wouldn't do anything to a retarded child.
Also Rui should have been killed in arc 6 and arc 7+ should have been rewritten somehow to fit that. Roy is still here and capable of coughing up shit.
A duo in vollachia would have been peak.

>go through vollachia making new rem and spica a character
>leave spica behind and rem gets her memories back 5 minutes after it ends
what was the fucking POINT

>>279929415
>if rem woke up normally in vollachia it would've been a fucking cakewalk sorry
No you faggot. Instead of having ram fuck up Rem's legs, it could have been fucking up her fighting powers instead. It would still have been challenging enough

>>279929805
>what was the fucking POINT
You can pick just about anything from arc 7 and 8 and say this

>>279929866
>>279929839
It's a shame that Vollachia was well-written because the only payoff we have is from Priscilla and Al subplots.

I think that Tappei tried to play One-Piece and it didn't work off, that's why I'm pretty sure we're never getting a proper Gusteko arc.

>introduces 10000 characters in arc 7 and 8
>nobody cares about the 9 divine jobbers
>nobody cares about vincent and his gay lover
>nobody care about the gladiator mobs
>nobody cares about the otto reskin and his past

>nobody cares about the amazons
>nobody cares about the stargazer faggot
>people only remember like 2 characters, a regular guy with an axe and maybe tanza because shes a loli
yep all those years were well spent! thanks hackpei

>>279929944
I think Tappei had a hard on for Vollachia after he wrote EX4

>>279929913
>well-written
Written (a lot). There's no well.

>>279929012
Me too.

>>279929944
Tiktok readers also love 10 sec loops cause its "peak". So yeah, that and Todd. Thats it.

>>279927825
dumbass, killing her would have turned her into a martyr, side lining her, waking her up without her memories and tainting her legacy was the correct way to ruin her character

>>279929944
youre right about everything, but flop is pookie bear and shouldnt be slandered like that
flop > otto

I recall a theory that the reason Spica was nothing like Rui was because of Rem’s memories. If so, I’m curious to see what Rem getting her memories back will do to Spica and if that’ll come to a head once Al and his party finally arrive in Kararagi.

>>279929944
>nobody cares about the stargazer faggot
Which is a shame cause he’ll probably be relevant again somewhere down the line, what with how arc 9 has him say strange things to Katya before declaring his wish to fuck off from the empire and going off to who knows where.

>>279930485
Fucking nice, can't believe I have never seen that one.

>>279930416
fair, hes definitely the least offensive to me

>>279930783
pretty cute

I want to lick Rem's asshole!

Fuck she makes me so horny!

>>279929421
Emilia a shit
Satella a shit

>>279924225
Reinhard can revive infinitely. He has more abilities than this.
>>279924478
Tappei once said he thought Ainz would win (but implied Ainz couldn't get passed Reinhard's immortality) but after autists argued about the subject enough in the isekai quartet threads the general consensus usually comes out to being that Rein wins.
Rein can revive infinitely vs Ainz's finite, and will only get stronger as the battle drags on thanks to his ability to gain new blessings, while Ainz gets weaker as his skills go on cooldown, he uses up his items, his buffs run out, his gear is damaged, and his mana is drained.

>>279929197
>Kaguya (Naruto) - she can kinda intstantly shift everyone nearby into a different dimension. She can pretty much just exit and leave him there with no way out.
Might work, but Satella can pull people through dimensions and still can't beat Rein so might not too.
>Any time manipulator.
Would not work. Satella stops time, still can't beat Rein.
>Speedsters
Speed does not beat infinite resurrections and endless adaptation (Rein is a speedster himself too)
>Exceptionally long range non-projectile attack
How's it gonna permakill him? Darth Vader dies before he can blink
>Anyone with a Death Note
You kill him. He comes back. Would it even beat Od Lagana's fate manipulation anyway?
>Fast exsanguination
He comes back with resistance to it, or kills you before you can pull it off
>Anything that attacks the soul directly
Explicitly the only thing that does work but Rein can still develop resistance according to the author
>High level illusion or mental attack
Blessing of Nightmares stops it
>This one sounds funny and not gonna work but Claymore grill wielding sword so fast he can't see shit with all the white lines
He just comes back and keeps fighting until she's exhausted then finishes her off

>watching yt reactions
>mostly everyone understanding character interaction development kino when they see it
>except some mentally retarded ones who don't even get why subaru is that way
>a couple couldn't even understand subaru was spewing hatred on himself when he was screaming at emilia
>some didn't know the giant monster was puck
>hating on MY HERO (B)etelgeuse

>>279932417
wait are you admitting to watching a bunch of youtube reactors just to affirm your beliefs but getting hurt when they didn't?

>>279929197
>>279924225
>Would Reinhard win against Itachi?
Totsuka blade
/gg

>>279932392
>but Satella can pull people through dimensions and still can't beat Rein
Because she does so through Yin magic and Rein has Anti-Magic blessings, letting him SHRUG off her dimensional shenaniganry. Other dimensional manipulators that don't use magic (or at least magic as recognized by the Od Lagna) would rape him, things like mana and spirits and DPs are all specific to his world. If he is taken out then he is rendered powerless

>>279929944
>nobody cares
Reddit cares. It's just no-fun 4chinners that don't care.

>>279929444
>human succubus with tiny horns and wings and no other monstrous features
>"monsterfucking"
Monstergirlfags are such a disappointment to Teratophilechads

>>279933125
Maybe, but that is all speculation. Od Lagana has demonstrated it's ability to give resistances and counters to even nonmagical phenomenon (see Fireplay, Waterplay, Mudplay, Sunburn, a couple others), so there's no guarantee that Od doesn't just recognize the phenomenon and put a stop to it. It would also have to catch Reinhard in the first place, good luck when he's zipping around with what essentially amounts to autododge at mach whoknowswhat

>>279933198
I doubt it
even on reddit I assume 99% of discussion is about characters from the first 4 arcs

>>279929944
I'm sure at least somebody obsessively cares about everything on the list. We have an anon here that is autistically obsessed with Adelheid who only appeared in one chapter of an If story where she was given like five lines of dialogue and then has never appeared in anything Re:Zero related again

>>279933295
yeah but funnily enough gender swapped reinhard is probably more popular than 98% of vollachian characters

>fucking ruined arc 7 by making Subaru crossdress for half the arc
>made the LN flop
>literally called flop
fuck you FLOP you CUNT!
