You should be a sort of supremacist of your own taste. >>279902220 is completely right. On the 4th Layer when Riko is poisoned it's not about what she experienced, it's multiple layers of danger and consequence coming to ahead, the curse, the threat, Reg's lack of confidence and how it has all escalated now that they're even farther than ever before.
Just as the duo escape the immediate threat, another is piled on, the rules of the fantasy world have been set long ago and are culminating into a nightmare scenario on characters who are absolutely not ready for it. The sense of terror piles on with Riko's condition worsening, poison and swelling settling in before she delivers her direction to Reg which is when the real horror begins to set in.
Does Reg have what it takes? No. The situation worsens jumping from escalation to escalation. As Reg's mind races if this was the right decision or not so does the viewer. But there's no going back, they can only go forward and as the turns worsen so does Reg's state. He pleads not to be left alone, the absurdity of this nigh invulnerable robot being terrified hits the viewer just as hard. Just as it all comes to ahead it seems like everything is lost. The way Tsukushi depicted this was spot on. Anyone who experienced loss as a young age can tell you that. Tsukushi was inserting his own vulnerabilities for the audience to project onto Reg. Just as things are worse than they've ever been with no hope in sight, then comes one last devilish ray of hope. Nanachi who seeks to bargain and trade pity for love, and an audience willing to do the same. Who at that moment wasn't completely aligned with Reg? Willing to give up everything and do anything just to continue on.
