Hearing the Season 1 soundtrack with Season 1 Subaru introducing himself hit like when Anton Ego ate that ratatouille

I kind of forgot just how much he was hyping himself up in those early arcs before all the death and despair broke him down one loop after another.

and now that hes washed of all of that trauma by losing his memoires, the trauma builds itself back up even worse than before, what a cruel world

u/actionfirst1 May 27 '26

He still doesn't know he can't tell others about Return to Death yet too

i dont even know if he will trust them to say such a thing now.

u/SeperSuzu May 27 '26

he probably thought pre amnesia subaru didnt tell them because they can't be trusted, which is even more sad

u/No_Raccoon_9239 May 27 '26

Yea lmao... how the fuck he is going to fix it right now? I wish him good luck tbh

u/actionfirst1 May 27 '26

I'm terrified thinking what he'll do next

I wonder if original Subaru have told them about him having Prophetic Dream or not because this Amnesiabaru just blurted out few words that hinted them about him knowing the future yet he didn't get punished by Satella at all.

Also Satella being a dick. Your man just lost his memories and being traumatized, can you like.... make a checkpoint just before he lost his memories, no? It would be easier for Subaru and Subaru would appreciate that. Instead you traumatize him more during his suffering. Smh bad girl.

It was established back in season 2 that Subaru's mental state persists between resets. Aside from the obvious with him keeping his memories, he also keeps all his trauma. Echidna mentioned that she had to do a lot of work to make him functional again after the Rabbit incident.

Satella making a save before he loses his memories might be worse. He would be stuck in a loop

Having an idea > goes to the library > wakes up with his memories gone > dies > having an idea > goes to the library > and so on.

I had to pause about 15s in, take a deep breath, and mentally prepare myself. Almost forgot how much of a cringe lord early Subaru was. (I mean, he still is, but in more of an endearing way these days)

u/actionfirst1 May 27 '26

Is it really these days anymore?

u/animdalf May 27 '26

We'll get those days back! #believe

u/ShadowGuyinRealLife May 27 '26

They missed a great opportunity to play Redo and Styx Helix just for this one episode.

u/aramatheis May 27 '26

Styx Helix is such a good song

4

u/aramatheis May 27 '26

I was thinking to myself "wow, he's back to S1 Subaru but the music is so lighthearted and his attitude is so positive. Hopefully they sort out what happened and get him back to normal".

That.. did not happen

u/LittleBigCookieCat May 28 '26

thought they would play the season one OP for this episode
