It is still fucking obnoxious even if it's properly set up. All amnesia plots are stupid and obnoxious unless they are played for laughs, like if a succession of 5+ girls all show up claiming to have been his childhood friend that he forgot about.

cheaping out breaks immersion. Like, what is this, a simulation inside an empty void? Was the family member even real? If you gotta cheap out, at least hide it better, usually by narrowing the scope.

What they did with ReLife extra episodes made me so mad, I'll never forgive them, they should have just cancelled it.

I mean, romance, where the entire point is to guess which woman out of a group the main guy "chooses" in the end, is probably the worst kind of anime you could watch. It's almost as bad as modern isekai.

Not really, immersion is only broken when the show sucks, has poor artistic direction, or was attempting to imitate reality in any way. Nobody so much as blinked when Danganronpa started using blue mob characters. It just fits a setting in which blood is pink and where nobody who isn't an ultimate matters.

This is basic symbolism 101. The character is dead and the people grieving will never see him/her alive again. This is represented by his/her face in the picture literally being obscured. I'm not necessarily saying it's a good literary device, but how could anybody misunderstand something this simple?

Holy shit, the way it swayed when she moved was nothing short of amazing. No underwear could fully restrain it. On her final thesis defence she had to wear something which I'm pretty sure had an actual armor rating to stop the nipples from poking through so that people would pay attention to her work instead of her chest. But anyways.
