I don't think S5 is happening simply because of how much of a commitment it is. Adapting Arcs 5 and 6 has already had hiccups, and Vollachia is even bigger. You're looking at like 60 episodes worth of content, not to mention a pretty much mandatory spinoff adapting the Wilhelm books for context on a lot of things.

>>281094020
I can see Kazuma, but Subaru has zero resemblance to the guy.

>>281093517
It wouldn't necessarily change much. You buy a studio for the people in it more or less and to try and get in on what they have going on. WF has been in trouble for awhile so they were probably cheap and this reads like someone wants to share in the spoils of Re: Zero as the publisher. Now, sometimes a studio gets bought up to cannibalize the staff for use on other projects so that might happen as well and would force Kadokawa to change studios after this season since I doubt they're going to interfere with an ongoing project.
So really kind of a toss up, I don't think anyone has any real insight to prognosticate one way or the other. In all likelihood nobody will really notice anything though you can expect any fuck ups on S4 will be blamed on the purchase as cope.

Alphapolis? the one that absolutely hated any adaptations and forced authors to delete web novels?
I wonder what the hell happened in the management side because they have done a complete 180.

I have been saying kadokawa is struggling for ages. Turns out Kadokawa and WF are both struggling lmao. Imagine making 27m a year and it's your 2nd highest grossing franchise.
https://desuarchive.org/a/thread/279210114/#279249070
Rezero S3 was so profitable that the studio which animated it had to sell itself out to another rival publisher and the IP rights holder had to sit in the cuck chair watching it unfold cause they didn't have shit to prevent it kekw. Sooo promising that WF constantly allocated its resources to other anime cause they knew shit had been going down for a while already.
Simple logic, really. If you had such a successful sequel, would you fight tooth and nail to give the franchise the best treatment possible?

>>281097710
What are you even smoking? AP didn't buy Re Zero, they bought a studio. Kadokawa doesn't own WF, WF is a hired guy Kadokawa uses to make their stuff while they largely profit as the publisher. Even if AP buys the studio they don't automatically cut into anything unless they wanted to snatch up the minimal paycheck the studio itself gets for the project which is assuredly smaller than the amount they bought the studio for and would result in the studio going defunct. All owning the studio does is give AP preferential decision-making on being a publisher for whatever project and let them leverage in on the production committee if Kadokawa really wanted WF to keep making Re Zero instead of shopping the job around elsewhere (like using Bind which was made of a bunch of former WF staff anyway)

>>281097710
>>281097819
Also that someone was interested in investing in WF to secure some profits as a producer that indicates they think Re Zero is doing well enough to make that worthwhile.

>>281097819
I know that you dumb faggot. Did you really think the studio and the IP rights holder in my reply were the same lmao

>>281097710
>If s3 were such a huge success like some retards here have claimed, you would be drowning in Capella and Regulus figure announcements right now.
This is the dumbest cope I have ever heard. It claims S3 is a failure while S1 and S2 were massive successes and its metric for proving this is... there isn't very much merch for most of the cast. WELCOME TO S1 and S2 TOO, JACKASS. Subaru god damn has barely any merch, it has always been all Rem, all the time with an occasional Ram mixed in from day 1. Emilia has barely anything, Betty has barely anything, for the "success of S2" where's Echidna, Petra, Frederica, Ryuzu, Garfiel, Otto? NOWHERE. Because that's how this series has been running from day one.
Fujos and fags have fumed forever they can't get figs of all their pretty boys, even Felix has dick all and he's some sort of trap/trans/gay/femboy icon.
2/10 for making me check your absolute horseshit retardation.

>>281097849
You seem to think they are. You're claiming Kadokawa sold off Re Zero like a cuck. If you aren't why the fuck are you acting like Kadokawa is losing anything when they aren't? Studios are hired guns, nobody expects loyalty from them, they're relationships of convenience and all dealing with the studio of another producer means is that producer is likely in on the production committee and splits some amount of the profits based on investment.
Go read the credits of any anime and watch your head spin how many studios get listed, people loan staff and assist each other all the time. Literally GTFO because you don't know a god damn thing about what you're talking about.

>>281097924
What a retarded faggot.
Echidna was the biggest thing coming out of S2 and she has over 40 figures. Beatrice has almost 30. You milk the few flagship characters of each season, not fucking otto and petra and shit motherfucker.
Also rem ram emilia are S1/2. That's called milking previous successes.
Goddamnit what a fucking retarded faggot

>>281097710
Kadokawa is a billion dollar company, they just aren't interested in WF aside from rezero and rezero is ahead in sales and IP compared to mushoku tensei.
s3 was popular and made money, even more than dungeon meshi but not oshi no ko level.

>Muh BDs
Lmao, 2010 called grandpa, nobody buys BDs. The only way to get even mediocre BD sales from the 2000s or 2010s is to be idol shit or gacha shit and include event tickets or rolls equivalent to the cost of the BD anyway. Like god damn where do you retarded dinosaurs keep coming from?

>>281098040

>>281098035
>The flagship characters
>Random slut villain and Mr. poopypants
L M A O
And there it is. Asshurt Regulusfag mad nobody wants his fag. They don't even produce the figures retard, figure companies ask for a license, Kadokawa doesn't go out commissioning character goods except for special events which are usually those acrylic standees and keychains you were bitching about. Full scale figures is on the whims and interest of the figures manufacturing companies.
Again, the series has been all Rem, all the time, from day 1 and that isn't going to change no matter how much you sperg that Regulus was a "flagship character" because he was a fucking joke. Where's the Pete figs then? There's a handful of tiny notable ones, like that huge bust, but he'd be the "flagship character" of S1 right? He's the big bad for the season, he's more memorable than any other archbishop, why would he be treated worse than some faggot who showed up for real in S3, shat himself and died? What a joke.
BTW Petra and Otto are infinitely more relevant than either Capella or Regulus.

Darkness has some pretty insane durability feats. For one she has survived Megumeme's explosion, which has been shown to be capable of vaporizing huge chunks out of mountains. No dust cloud, literally boiling the rock at 1200c. Darkness emerged from that cartoonishly blackened but still intact.
She fought on equal physical terms with Chimera Sylvia, a monster that by rough estimates was probably at least 30m tall and swinging around a 12m blade capable of slicing through stone. Again, not damaged at all.
Finally, she was able to lift the Kowloon Hydra on her back. That thing was the size of a building. People looked like ants next to it, and she held a plank under that thing. I doubt Elsa could do more than tickle Darkness with that blade. If she had Vanir's mask on Darkness could probably fling her into orbit.
>>281094420
That's the thing, she's not impervious to damage but I don't think Elsa is capable of damaging her.

Reminder that this no diff clears Regulus.
Fighting Rai at less power than she had as a child, Rai wished that Regulus was here because he's the only one who would stand a chance before amending that he'd get smoked too.

>>281098207
>That's the thing, she's not impervious to damage but I don't think Elsa is capable of damaging her.
She's randomly vulnerable to being cut, but its really inconsistent. If its for a joke she's invincible and if the point of the episode is it being her time to shine she's invincible, but if someone else needs to do something she can get in a lot of trouble to relatively minor things. Elsa would just inflict infinite psychological damage if she couldn't cut through Dorkness' abs and complained about it.

>>281098273
Even Petelgeuse got something, so wht not Capella or literally anyone else that appear after S2? Dumb faggot keeps defending my argument lmaoool

>>281098310
Because people in S1 and S2 don't have anything either you dumbfuck retard. Its just Rem. This is the standard. You made up some lofty retard standard that anything from S2 was shilled or hyped when it was all Rem then too.
And for some reason you think the sign of all of this is that REGULUS is the one not getting merch when SUBARU doesn't get merch.
You don't even know who decides to make figures or why, you think its Kadokawa making them in-house or some fucking shit because you're a drooling fucking retard. The market forces around character figures are warped too because its all being eaten up by gacha sluts just like doujins and that's where the people that actually make figures are putting their efforts. Except for more Rems of course.

Lmao at the samefagging and wojack spam. You sure are mad you're a fucking retard, huh? Nice selfie, bro.

>>281098040
>WF aside from rezero and rezero is ahead in sales and IP compared to mushoku tensei.
Another retarded faggot. Kadokawa sold anime rights of Mushoku Tensei to TOHO. Fuck you.
>S3 was popular and made money
S3 was popular but nowhere near S2. I even pointed out that the yearly average since 2016 is 40-45m and it made 30-40% lower. Not to mention thats only the average, and it should have made the majority during S1, pre 2021. All of you faggots didnt even read shit.

>B-b-but they have to shill my Reggiepoo, he was the flagship of the season!
>Meanwhile of Elsa's very few figures all of them were released in the last 2 years
Wow, its almost like what I said is true and the figure manufacturers buy licenses at their whims and make what they god damn want and think they can sell and its not a sign of shit for what Kadokawa thinks of a season. That's so crazy. I sure do remember the major relevance Elsa had in 2024-5 to justify getting figures made she sure was staring in that season of Re Zero that was getting made in early 2024.
Lmao that you think Regulus getting dick all nothing for figures means S3 was an abject failure. That's it. That's your whole proof. You don't get a pantsshitter you can hotglue so the financial report is actually lying and it didn't generate any money at all.
Stay mad, fag.

Kadokawa is just shit at managing its IPs, Re:Zero included.

Idk man, the only thing you need to kill Regulus is intel about his Authority or to be psychopathic enough to kill his wives just because.
Also, you can't be a cute girl, or Regulus will use Lion's Heart on you when he isn't invincible anymore, so Ram is fucked either way

Tappei did his "don" thing a bit ago, so he was going to do a chapter but then decided he didn't like it. He mentioned on I think the last chapter or the one before it he's been 'don'ing a lot of these, this section seems really hard for him to write for some reason,

>>281107302

Ryuzu couldn't smell shit on Subaru after not dying for a few days, so it doesn't make any sense for him to stink so fucking much when he hasn't died in weeks/months

>>281090059 (OP)
According to Isekai Quarted Kazuma would have also become a simp for Emilia. I doubt that he would go Subaru's way and would instead give her up after one or two deaths but he still would have become a simp for her if he didn't have to sacrifice his life for her.

>>281109769
Nah, Kazuma would have lied and convince her that there were other quicker ways of defrosting Eliot Forest to get a cute, submissive half elf wife
And he would also end up saving everyone in Eliot Forest in a retarded roundabout way because why not

>>281109900
Kazuma's first problem will be Elsa. He would give up after the first or second try.

>>281109681
Sure he did. The only qualification is the face and she matches, it doesn't matter if he thinks she's a whore. He had a whole rant about this, anon.

Everything stems from subaru falling in love at first sight with emilia and I can't blame him.

They also cancelled the YouTooz Vinyl wave due to the company not wanting sales in vinyl figures... They are just doing harm to themselves. Also, can we note that Subaru Natsuki, THE MC has only 2 figures while the rest of the female cast has hundreds. They always sideline Subaru. Even when it comes down to marketing, they always use Rem, Ram, and Emilia. Subaru is nowhere to be found. Idk what it is with them always excluding Subaru, but they need to do better. I hope that the Re:Zero Funko wave doesn't get cancelled. They complain about money loss yet they cancel the Youtooz wave. Make it make sense... sorry for my rant. Re:Zero is my second favorite anime of all time and Subaru is my #1 favorite anime character. I wish Re:Zero well. All we can do is hope.

Only Rem and Ram. Emilia is barely over 100 and everyone else is lesser. Crusch doesn't have any at all, Anastasia and Priscilla have like 1, Felt has 2. And so on

>>281111068
Nah, he probably killed himself for Emilia a few times in all of the offscreen loops in Vollachia, but he did the same for everyone else, so it's not that big of a deal

>>281097646
They even finally allowed English localization of one of their Light Novels. That never happened before. At most they in-house localized their manga adaptations.

>>281111335
Nope. She's never in danger. Its why she's boring as shit. Once she's in a scene she's literally invincible. The most damage she has ever received in any fight in the entire series is in arc 1 when Elsa kicked her behind a counter and not so much as a hair on her head has been touched otherwise.

>>281111650

Elsa killed her in the first loop of the fucking series

>>281110117

That's honestly the smartest course of action. After that, either Roswaal finds a way to bring him back to the Mansion to keep his plans in order or he lives a happy life as a merchant.

>>281111773
That was one of three of her deaths actually confirmed in a series with 42 volumes.

>>281111773
Are you? Its not a fight and its to establish stakes, which then get undercut because you know for a fact as soon as Emilia shows up literally nothing can happen in a fight because she is invincible. Tappei doesn't like depicting her dying on-screen or apparently even being hurt in any way, he's done it twice in the whole series for drama to establish Subaru's motivation or stakes and that's it. Any fight she participates in she barely gets touched let alone injured even if those injuries would just be cosmetic.
She can fight the stronges people in the series, literally, like Regulus, Reid or Volcanica and just makes actual jokes of them and never be so much as scratched.

>>281111773
>>281112032
During mass casualty incidents where literally everyone else dies or is dying, Emilia doesn't. You can maybe assume she would die to things like the train death ray, but that's not confirmed and given other bullshit it might not even be a good bet. Petelgeuse reveals his ability and fucks everyone up with dozens or hundreds dead? She shows up giggling and solos him so easily she thanks him for being so pathetic and weak. Cave of Friendship? Eh, she's just not there so she's not involved. Everyone dying in the tower? She fucked off, didn't help anyone and just shows up at the end perfectly alive and fine with no explanation to what she's been doing or not and then Subaru dies. Arc 4 has a slight excuse because she's more secluded in the tomb, but absolutely everyone else is dead and she's fine. Satella kills everyone but Emilia because for whatever unexplained reason Satella just possessed her that time. Etc...
During any huge battle no matter how good or bad its going Emilia will be absolutely pristine.

>>281110117
>Kazuma's first problem will be Elsa. He would give up after the first or second try.
He has some useful magical tricks. First "steal" gets him her panties, but the second one her knife. He can put her into bondage, or suck her energy dry or freeze her. Also, snipe, if he gets her at a reasonable distance with his bow she's not going to avoid getting hit.

>>281112246
Elsa got raped as a loli, there's no way she minds having her panties stolen.

>>281112727
>Elsa got raped as a loli
Lucky the chad who got her virginity. I wonder why Tappei is such a faggot that he won't show detailed on screen rape in his novels.

>>281112246
Yo idiots dot understand that his Konosuba powers won't exist in this scenario in a different world. He doesn't have steal now stop coping.

>>281090812
>could Kazuma survive her?
He's literally her ideal strike zone
I'd say Kazuma's fucking dead from getting dry fished but Aqua can just re-hydrate him

What you should've asked is how many children will she end up giving birth to before she gets killed by megumin's explosion

>>281110117
Kazuma, especially with no adventurer powers, would never choose to fight Elsa. He has zero combat prowess, especially on a fresh start in Subaru's place.
He could, however, outmaneuver her. All he has to do is avoid fighting her and not be where she is going to be and escort the right people out of the way and he is golden. He can't beat her in a fight, but he CAN make sure that he never has to fight her in the first place through picking his battles and occasionally leaving the right distraction or false lead.

While he doesn't know it under these circumstances, because hes never seen his adventurer card, we can safely assume that he still has a high Luck stat. Trickery will remain his best defense.

>>281112915
Return by Death exists in Isekai Quartett, so Shitzuma has his full arsenal of powers. Sry, i don't make the rules.

>>281113247
You exist in a completely different clueless dimension I can't hope to understand.

>>281113247
No no anon, this isn't about Isekai Quartet. This is the hypothetical of if Kazuma got dropped into the very start of Re:zero in Subaru's place instead of Subaru. This means this version of Kazuma has never met Aqua, gone to Axel, or become and adventurer. He JUST has his personality, the clothes on his back, and Return By Death. Fresh start under new rules.

>>281090059 (OP)
Will there be more Tanya x Kazuma?

>>281113310
>He JUST has his personality, the clothes on his back, and Return By Death. Fresh start under new rules.
It's more fun if he DOESN'T have return by death because he somehow lucks himself to the perfect route every time he's about to get killed and just dodge that by a hair's breathe

Anime added extra deaths to Kazuma's death count but in the LNs he doesn't actually die that often

>>281113150
He could get Emilia out safe and sound, but would he go out of his way to save Rom and Felt? And if he did, could he evade Elsa long enough to get to a safe place like some guard post or something?

>>281113150
Exactly. Kazuma got something far better than Subaru could hope to have: a functioning brain.
He would either realize Emilia is more trouble than its worth on the first or 2nd loop and let her go, or time up Elsa's arrival to swoop in and get out before she even arrives.
Also if he realizes Reinhard's power level and personality, Kazuma has no ounce of pride in himself and would stick to Reinhard like a tick to be protected by him.

>>281113411
Kazuma is a different character than Subaru. He's going to make different choices and end up on a different route. You can't expect him to consider everyone that Subaru thought was important to be as important as Subaru did.
Though, personally, I feel like Kazuma would be more likely to save Felt than Emilia. He's just going to see her as someone who needs help more than Emilia does, who has magic and a familiar and shit already from the start. From Kazuma's perspective at the start, Emilia can (seemingly, at least) protect herself and Felt can't.

>>281113624
Agreed, Kazuma is pragmatic but not heartless. He would probably go the Felt route, then get angry when Reinhard swoops in and takes his heroine.

Emilia will never have a moment like this. Reminder that Tappei described Subaru and Emilia relationship as elementary school friends.

>>281113740
Agreed its one of the saddest and most romantic moments in novel history. Reminds me of Fate/Stay Night's Rain scene where everything seems lost, then the hero restarts things from Zero to save the day.

>>281113624
Once he sees that Emilia is in expensive clothes, rich, experienced in magic and a dumbass he would stick to her like fly to shit in hopes of getting his dream NEET life. On the first loop anyway if we assume he is destined to come across Emilia. Although he may consider asking Emilia to get some serious help after he gets butchered the first time.

>>281113592
> has no ounce of pride in himself and would stick to Reinhard like a tick to be protected by him

This is what I would do.

>>281113816
Hmmmm.... agreed. Assuming his timeline of encounters roughly matches Subaru's on that first day, once Kazuma is a loop or two in and has realized what is going on, Emilia is probably his most obvious person to turn to that might actually be able to help with the whole "all of these people are going to be murdered" problem. He's going to see her and go "Oh right. Wizard. Wizard can probably solve this problem, they have magic!"

Kazuma would, however, lose a number of loops trying to cheat his way past the whole "you can't tell people about Return By Death" limitation. There is no way he dies to that just once and does not immediately see if he can doubletalk, write, pig latin, or charades his way around it.

He probably just has to end up tricking her, though. Even in another universe, Kazuma is forced to rely on his more useful skill: wrangling retarded women into pulling off his plans for him.

>>281113942
Lets be honest, if you get reincarnated in a world without money, knowledge of the language and no certainty that you can redo as many times as you want, the smartest thing would be to go to a dependable guy like Reinhard to keep you safe.
I think it may be too successful to the point Kazuma may not learn about RbD if he stays with Reinhard.

Vincent x Chisha fujos are more dedicated than Remfags. These people are crazy.

Even Kazuma in the Dependable Maid sidestory falls for Rem. I wonder if they'd make a good couple

>>281096552
Ram has always been the oni god, the literal first thing she does after being born is fight back against their village chief from killing them for being born as twins.

>>281115047
I'm honestly surprised that Subaru isn't dead last, people fucking hated him in S1

>>281115180
Rem is an oni which is basically a race of savages which are particularly pungent creatures with very powerful pheromones.

>>281115273
Because as retarded as he is, its at least entertaining to watch him suffer. An entertaining character is far better in a story than a non-character like Moblia.

>>281115273
Both those polls are a WN poll that ran from 2014-2020

>>281115273
Most of the people watching Re:Zero are going to at least tolerate Subaru because otherwise they would just drop the series.

>>281115180
>>281115274
Subaru is such a lucky faggot who got to cuddle with an unwashed Rem for days in the dragon carriage during arc 3. Imagine how delightfully pungent the scent of her feet, pits and pussy must have been as he pressed close to Rem's sweaty body. Even more since oni sweat is particularly strong and filled with pheromones.
He is such a fag for not taking her right there and then.

>>281115047

What would you guys do if you had obtained Regulus's Authority of Greed?

Me, personally - I would do the same things as him.
To the letter.
I would rant to people for hours about myself, my nonsensical asocial pseudophilosophical remarks, and they wouldn't be able to do anything to me, because the authority makes me VNBOTHERED.
Of course, I could also kill anyone I want to with a swing of my hand.
But why bother?
Being able to obsessively ramble to someone for days on end (I wouldn't need to eat/drink/sleep because of the authority) would be a far better way to get back at them than time-stopping my fart or smth to use as a lethal projectile.

I would also acquire a harem of women with
pretty faces.

And yes, I also wouldn't ever have sex.

Konosuba is a joke and is not worthy of discussion. It has the artistic value of an Adam Sandler film.

2. Acquire Rem

4. Use Crusch's resources to acquire Sanctuary
5. Make contract with Echidna
6. Kill the Whale using Roswaal and Crusch's army
7. Make badass armor from the White Whale's hide
8. Acquire Reinhard and Felt
9. Use my economic superiority to acquire Anastasia by convincing her to drop and join me
10. Make a team of Julius, Reinhard, Ram, Rem and Crusch BUT NOT EMILIA to conquer Flügel's Tower and acquire Shawler
11. Incarnate Louise in the green room, then rape her and make her my trophy wife while killing Gluttony as painfully and slowly as possible, just for fun
12. Use their combined resources to conquer Vollachia, proving my might to Priscilla and making her KISS MY FEET
13. Use the time in Vollachia to acquire Medium
14. Abolish the priestess contract and become the Harem King Supreme Emperor of Mankind
15. Marry Rem, Crusch, Ram, Shaula, Felt, Anastasia, Priscilla, Echidna, Frederica, Emilia, Capella, and tie Meili and Elsa to my rape dungeon.
16. Further my royal line through Rem's family line.
- I'm still unsure on what Shudrak I should acquire in Vollachia though. Which tribal girl would make for the best most sexual wife?

>>281111797
But Emilia has to survive for that.
If Emilia dies, Puck freezes the capital and Kazuma won't have enough time to get far enough away to avoid dying to it even if he immediately starts running.
Kazuma will have to make sure Emilia survives by saving her (even by proxy) or convincing/tricking her into abandoning the insignia.

His game plan will probably be:
>Kazuma calls for guards
>Reinhard responds (due to Kazuma's insane luck)
>Kazuma sends him to loot house and skedaddles

Retard. There will come a point where it's not profitable to make another season. Plenty of series got dropped midway by the publisher. S5 is already a stretch for a non shounen series. Not many go for S6-7-8, especially 2-cour seasons.

>>281125517
Yes, 'Resurrection' is binding your soul which is currently checking out of the world of the living back to your healthy enough body. Think of it as more advanced CPR; you are still around somewhere, it's just that the connection has been lost and you are trying to plug that soul cable back in.
'True Resurrection' is when your soul is already in the eternal retiring home and you have to forcibly drag it out of the current bingo session while it is kicking and screaming to be left alone.

Jesus fucking Christ what next cope you retarded faggot? Its always been about "most of the revenue comes from the success of previous seasons", such as figures of only characters in S1 and 2 cause both were big hits (mostly S1), or pachinkos, or collabs that feature only rem ram emilia. Outside of those you have BD, LN, games and muh streaming revenue
>BD
Shit
>LN
Shit. Everyone knows this fact.
>Games
All rezero gachas got shut down in the few years following S2. The last one barely lasted 6 months
>Pachinkos
Now, faggots, heres the interesting part. The most popular and profitable rezero pachinko machine is called "onigakari". Most popular pachinko catchphrase is oni gakatte masune (demonically inspired). Japanese otakus know more about that phrase and the scene of rem crying from pachinko than the anime itself. Emilia doesnt have a dedicated pachinko and sure as shit doesnt have a popular one. The second most popular? Has lots of echidna scenes. S3? No pachinko at all. And if you can read the revenue components image above, pachinkos= most money.
>Collabs
Rem ram and emilia. Enough said.
>27m in 2 months
Fucking retarded and illiterate faggot. 27m in the 2024 FY that ended in March 2025.
This series has always made its money through Rem ram emilia and a few others depending the revenue source. Mostly Rem. S3 is only a drop in the fucking ocean when you actually understand where all the revenues come from

>As you can see based on this data, Re Zero is one of our higher performing franchises and we think that ignoring it for a few years resulted in a general loss of revenue for certain years
Another retarded faggot. You're referring to the FIRST QUARTER OF THE 2022 FISCAL YEAR, the only time that Kadokawa ever said something like that regarding rezero. They were comparing Q1/2022 to Q1/2021. It wasnt "a few years", they just said there was a decrease in revenue in the same period compared to 2021 cause there was an anime. And guess what, 2 Rem figures got into top 10 monthly amiami preorders that year. The only character from rezero. She then exploded to one released a week. This is a prime example of milking previous successes. And guess what? The echidna pachinkos also sold well. The gachas that sucked off the few recurring characters also did well. But this is fucking 2025. Nothing related to S3 got sold. Didn't even boost LN sales to top 10 mid year. Wake the fuck up.

>>281110434
Kadokawa is genuinely extremely incompetent in it's handling of Re:Zero. Not even just with merch, but with the way they handle the games, novels and anime too.

>>281128443
truth hypernova. copers on suicide watch.

>>281128566
Especially true for the games. Re:zero has a solid setting, magic, fighting, writing precedents and blessings to boot and they can't even produce a good gacha.

I never said S2 or S3 would never get made. Fucking schizo. S2 getting made was the biggest fucking duh ever. S3 also given S2's success. S4 was leaked to be part of S3 almost 2 years ago.

>>281111773
Emilia is so pristine and clean that the shine is just a coat of paint on drywall. She can play the air-headed princess, the idiotic dunderhead, but let her face anything resembling danger she'll come out unscathed.
The worst tragedy to befall Emilia is in Arc 4 and to a very limited extent.
>>281112032
Subaru should have been punished in Arc 5 for stupidly challenging Regulus.

>>281128039
No, its a matter of how many. You can't kill her with a single attack no matter what you do. She regenerates essentially on a life system like Alucard, you have to kill her over and over and over or she'll just revive.

You've literally been doing this same exact retarded cope for literally years you stupid faggot. Same retarded arguments, same retarded style except you have to constantly shift the goalposts as each amazing and incredible "assurded prediction" you make didn't come true. Wasn't supposed to be a S2 because WF fucked up. Wasn't supposed to be a S3 because S2 was a failure compared to S1. Then both happened and now you're crying and pissing yourself even hard that a S4 even exists at all when you were so assured S3 never would. I can guarantee you if S3 didn't meet some level of expectation or calculation from Kadokawa they would just pull the plug.

>This is a prime example of milking previous successes.
>The show is unpopular and unsuccessful because... they market the popular characters!!!!!!!!!!! So it doesn't count!!!! You can't make something popular or successful off of marketing the popular things that make it successful, that doesn't work!!!!!
>The show and series is hated actually, nobody can sell shit, except the shit they do sell, but none of it counts because its the stuff that sells and I have to say nothing sells at all to fuel my delusional retardation that this time for real Kadokawa will stop funding everything related to Re Zero at all and scrap the whole IP because its just a giant money pit that makes no revenue for them at all!!!!!!!!!!!!
Business genius you are, yep.

>>281129397
>I can guarantee you if S3 didn't meet some level of expectation or calculation from Kadokawa they would just pull the plug.
Btw, this is proven entirely because it is marketed as "S4" when all the leaks said a S3 with 36 episodes, but they didn't announce that and kept it hidden. That means they're viability testing. If it was always planned and all part of the same package they would have come out saying so from the start. Instead they repackaged the rumored plan.

But why am I even bothering arguing with a retard whose entire argument is
>Re Zero isn't popular
>NOOOOOOOO YOU CAN'T SELL REM THAT'S CHEATING ITS NOT FAIR ITS NOT FAIR ITS NOT FAIR
It will keep being produced despite your retardation and lack of understanding even if all it is is a loss leader to prop up pachinko by reminding as broad an audience as possible that it exists as a series and throwing a bone to the fans who stick around.
Just and FYI there's an entire massive feature of business that is literally a loss leader, it's called "marketing". An ad generates you literally nothing in revenue, it costs money, its return is entirely indirect.
Also an FYI that's what most anime have always been. Most of the time its an ad for a manga, then it was ads for LNs, or vehicles for toys, because shockingly anime played on the TV for free don't make a ton of money on their own. Advertising kickbacks, secondary sales of merch, etc... are where the bulk of every production comes from. Even highly successful series in terms of your sacred metric "BD sales" (lol) sell many more times through other avenues.

>salesfags
>Animeonlies
What a shit thread.

>>281129302
>All the things related to S3 must prove that S3 was a "massive success"
Isn't that obvious you retarded faggot? You really want to attribute the same 3 merch lines of characters that haven't appeared in almost a decade to muh S3? What about all the other muhtrics that you constantly disregard? What successful parts was solely due to S3? Muh streaming renevue, muh sales of nonexistent shit?
>inb4 no one buys the LN cause of muh WN bruh
https://rezerodb.com/statistics/readership
There was a single uptick in May following Rem's return. That was it. A wet fart.
Plateaued in Feb-Mar-April, indicating no further increase in readership possible as chapters were still coming out and the anime already ended in March. Surged for only one month and then died promptly in June and July. B-but no chapters in June bruh. Lmao what about July?
May was probably the peak of WN readership (which shouldn't have happened and should be lower without that event) for this series from here on out. GGs.

Emilia a shit.

>>281129536
>loss leader
Ahh the ad that boosted shit minimally. The total revenue since the series' creation is roughly 60 billion yen, with probably 99% of it generated from 2016 onwards. Divide that by 10, you have the yearly average of 6 billion yen. That's only the yearly average. The peaks of previous seasons, especially S1, were probably 11 digits. Explain why roughly 3.8 billion yen in 2024 FY should be considered a massive success?

>>281128581
>This samefagging
Oh. I see. This is the Emiliafag's new cope. Explains all the
>Nooooooo you can't sell Rem, you have to stop selling Rem, you have to stop all production of things people like and buy because its old! You have to sell Regulus! NO REMS. STOP THE REMS!!!!! AAAAIIIIIIEEEEEE TAPPEI SAVE MEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!

>>281129743
Correction: 9 fiscal years starting in 3/2016 and ending in 3/2024. So, divide 60 by 9. The yearly average is actually 6.67 billion yen. It's even worse than I thought kekwww. That's 40% below.

>You can't sell the thing people like, its too old
>You have to sell the new thing or it doesn't count
>You have to stop selling anything old
>Consume the new thing
>Why doesn't Kadokawa destroy Re-- I mean, the old thing and drop everyhting that's making them money to sell the new thing?!
>Why do they do market research and give people the things that sell money??!!
This retard literally works at Disney.
How's Star Wars holding up for you over there? Or any of your IPs for that matter? Old bad, new good, force it down people's throats until they like your precious baby. Let the past die, kill it if you have to, and all that jazz.
Lmao.

>>281129798
Correction again. Ending 3/2025. Thats 9 fiscal years. My bad

Yeah, I guess if you disregard all the merch that sells as a result of the franchise existing.

I call them "SafeMCs" because there's zero reason to dislike them. They are objectively perfect people because the self insertering readers for the soulless, passionless product have to feel safe and happy consuming the product.

Post WN arc 4 Subaru really is a shit character. Every arc after 4 I've liked him less.

>>281129851
You seen those western fans seething on X every time a Rem figure gets announced? Shit is funny as fuck. They're never getting their Shitbaru figure. Lol.

This nigger has to be like 12 years old, the world is such an impenetrable mystery to him.

People shit on Emilia for being a nothing character that gets zero author attention or character development.
Subaru has been almost the exact same.

>>281129926
>Numbers are down from when people were literally locked in their homes and this is happening industrywide
Damn capslock-kun. Didn't know you were still around. If you had completed elementary school, you would have understood that I didn't mention S2 in my total revenue reply and I also specifically pointed out the highest peak of revenue should have come from the S1 era, or least pre 2020. Why? Cause it was fucking mainstream and we still had life size Rems that cost 40k$ a piece back then. Fucking dumbass.
This is a yearly average conversation. You fucking retarded ass should stop bringing up 2 years that obviously shouldn't skew the average that much at all. For every 1B added to the average, the 2 Covid years logically should have made 9/2=4.5B on top of 6.67. Thats 11B each. For every 3B added to the average (cause 3.8 vs 6.67), each year should have made 15.5B each.
Now shut the fuck up cause these numbers ain't real nigger

>>281129884
How is Re:zero's obnoxious MC objectively perfect? A better example would be Frieren.

>>281130048
Correction: the 3B part was wrongly calculated. Still, my point is that the majority of revenue didn't come from 2 years, not to the point that they could heavily raised the yearly average by 3 billion

At least this is better than waifu wars

>>281129926
>>281130048
>>281130128
(60-(3.8*7))/2=16.7 billion for each each covid year 2020-2021. Thats the math and its just fucking impossible. Now cope harder fucking faggot.

>>281129884
>They are objectively perfect
Kazuma is an antisocial douchebag and Suaru is a complete cringe-lord. One is saved by an idiot savant with resurrections kills and the other by not being able to die.

>>281130181
Goddamn now that I think about it, Kadokawa has been going down for a while lmao. No wonder Sony bought them out last year.

Everyone here has sunk cost fallacy out the ass and that is why everyone is so pissed off all the time. I feel it too.

>>281118865
If I got Regulus' authority as a child, no doubt I would go down a similar path as he did. My personality is pretty similar to his after all.
If I obtained his authority now, I'd use it to kill all my enemies.

>Ten years after From Zero
>Emiliafags still seething uncontrolably about Rem

>>281130976
Bro Rem literally raped Subaru in his sleep and his anus will never recover its tightness also Rem is the reason for all Subaru's suffering because he only dies because of her.

>Ten years after From Zero
>Remfags still seething uncontrolably about Emilia

>N-no you..
Every time.

>>281130976
I see the other way around far more often. There are like 2 Emiliafags on /a/.

I just saw a gacha games monthly revenue rankings on twitter. A game at top 10-15 something made 25m in a month. Let that sink in.

>>281138043
I fully believe she will arrive and kill Al after this arc is over.

>>281136663
My point is that this "discussion" can be infinitely flipped, both sides seething because they just blindly dislike one of the characters. I just hate these mentally ill waifufags

Bordeaux...

>>281138682
There's a reason Volcanica asked for virgin girls...inb4 Crusch gets so fucked up by the universe that she ends up winning the election so she can get the BIG VEINY THROBBING SENILE DRAGON COCK shoved up her holes.
All for the crime of daring to be more popular than Tappei's favored half devil.

>>281138143
Why would she kill Al?

>>281139059
He denied her love (lust) and her offer to breed strong children.

>>281139123
What? When?

>>281098911
This would've been a perfect chance to have Darkness die so we can get a Darkness/Eris scene as she waits for resurrection. That would've been incredibly interesting. Why is it only Kazuma who dies?

>>281139666
Unfortunately Darkness's abs are too thick and meaty to allow such a weak strike to kill her. Unfortunately I think the canon reason why we never got a scene like that is that Darkness is a native of the world and as such would permanently die. She is my wife though so I don't want to see that happen

>>281139059
Because Aldebaran is ugly, and she hates ugly things

>>281108572
Definitely Subaru. I guess it depends on how you feel about Aqua and Megumin but holy shit. Kazuma has it rough with those two problem children. Subaru has some despicable deaths but Rem is best girl in the universe. She's pure perfection. He'll be fine. I dunno if the same can be said for Kazuma. But things appear to be looking up by season 3's finale. We'll see what season 4 brings.

Darkness best konosuba girl by far.

>>281138708
Yeah, I'm pretty confident I can kick his ass until he learns my attack patterns and no diffs me

>>281114308
>Dependable Maid sidestory
What sidestory again? There's legitimate crossovers for these series? Other than isekai quartet I mean. Or is this something from that gacha game?

>>281139887
Rem is perfection but Darkness fetishizing shacking up with a NEET because of the shame of it all is extremely painful and arousing. I'd say they're neck and neck and it's impossible to say who's better.

kazuma is in a party of retards but most people outside of that shitshow are generally helpful and good
subaru is surrounded by absolutely malicious psychos who would kill or torture him to death if he wasnt abusing save scumming to get on their good side
like you can count on one hand how many characters are wholely benevolent and dont have some giant issues or hidden agendas

>>281138997

She probably married many times.
>>281142332
>inbefore "it was Capella all along" theories

>>281125781
With Rem coming back of course it would be more profitable you dumb faggot. Arc 8 even has all the popular characters gathered up in one spot to add to the profits

>>281142623
>She probably married many times.
Nah, the concept of marriage is totally against her ethos. It would be the fakest, gayest thing ever in her worldview. A whole ceremony of lies when all you want to do is fuck.

>>281141804
I don't appreciate you saying that, I suppose

Hackpei has writer's block because he can't figure out how to make Emilia stand out now that Rem is back.

Hackpei has Emilia fettered down to being this naive cute princess that can't be hurt or tainted. It's locked him in to writing her one way and one way only changing her now would take something major happening to justify it and make it make sense.

>>281090094

We don't know much of her before becoming an archbishop.

>>281143876
There's no possible justification for what she's done so far, the only thing he could do is suddenly start writing her differently which would come across as weird and forced.

>>281144325
She doesn't though. Most people are pretty neutral if offended but too polite to say anything. Betty doesn't like her because she pervs on Betty, Subaru doesn't like her all that much either.

>>281144770
We know enough to know she isn't a nice lady.

>>281144325
>out of nowhere

>>281143598
>>281143876
I haven't read any of arc 9, I keep going back and forth on it. But it sounds hilarious if this is true. Rem back and better than ever? And I hear her memories are back too? What the fuck is Emilia even doing?

>>281145426
Emilia is the reason Rem is back, because Al needed a distraction to set up his real distraction to run away. Fixing Rem offscreen gave Emilia a minor headache for a few seconds and that's how this was all resolved.
Everyone has taken the piss out of it including Tappei who titled a chapter Flash Remnade, combining flash grenade and Rem because that's the effect her being fixed has to people. Rem has been fine since being awake but the whole thing is a fucking pisstake.

>'True Resurrection' is when your soul is already in the eternal retiring home and you have to forcibly drag it out of the current bingo session while it is kicking and screaming to be left alone.
You are retarded, autistic and completely missing the fucking point

>>281129265
Thats the same power as the chimera boss from the movie and LN yet it still died to one fucking explosion

You're just a die hard that refuses to admit you lost because you never bothered to learn about the opposing lore

>>281138708
Yeah
even if he learns all my patterns after countless loops I'll still beat him because its a pre-determined event that he loses against me

its a canon event that he loses even if he tries to use that deus machina twink against me

>>281146363
>"Opposing lore"
There is no lore, Konosuba is a gag comedy, character's entire personalities and powersets get rewritten on a whim for the sake of a joke. Megumin could one-shot someone because it was her moment and it just needed to happen so it did, it has nothing whatsoever to do with her power or any special retarded property.
You're the one who knows nothing about "opposing" lore and are a projecting retard. You wanting Kazuma's cock up your ass has literally no bearing on anything.

>>281146363
>chimera boss from the movie
That is not her power. She can just transform to an undamaged state. If you obliterate completely in one go she dies, which is what happened.

Discuss the latest chapter..

>>281142390
You keep calling them retards when Retardzuma chose them in his party and took Aqua with him instead of taking the OP MC deal

I'm so fucking lonely. I need a Rem so bad.

Lol and lmao.

You're utterly retarded.
You should just walk out of the discussion right now because you clearly have no idea of what you're talking about.

>>281139887
>Kazuma has it rough with those two problem children

Problem children who solve everything for him while he dickrides in their success?
There is a likelihood that Kazuma would be begging for money in the streets of Axel if not for the fact that Aqua and Megumin exist.

Ungrateful faggot.

>>281149606
Subaru...

It's just a shitty gacha game written by some random dipshits who aren't the original author but I do still love it for the crossovers and art. This one probably my favorite. Saten/Kazuma confirmed to have a sensei/student relationship and they bond because they're both weak. And not only does she not care about the panties stealing but Uiharu has to beg him later not to teach Saten steal. They're perfect together. The joke mage can fuck off.

>>281142682

Look at the LN sales for anything after volume 26. Look at volume 41. There's only droppers you faggot.
