Now that the dust has settled what is the final verdict for this anime.

Decent show.

Wasted potential.

> Wahhh they didn't show "Who's Rem" wahhh

I don't even feel like jerking to doujins from it, pretty fucking dead series.

Poor man's Konosuba

AOTD

Still ongoing
The Dark Lord hasn't risen yet

Pretty fucking shit desu.

I'll pass.

Not at all what I mean.
The show had some promise and then went to shit halfway through.

It's shit.

episodes around 8ish-17ish were the best

rest was shit

Solid 4/10. Still better than memesuba which was 3/10.

bad

It got significantly worse the longer the series went on.

Wilhelm's little 2-3 episode arc was more engaging and meaningful than the rest of the entire second season.

Watched it final last night.

Thank you Cred Forums, I loved it.

Rem is, in fact, best girl.

>Will drag her thoroughly broken body to you just to save you and confess her love.

Masterpiece.

The opposite of what this faggot said.

You're not wrong for enjoying it but for me I was just bored the whole time. This is shit I've seen in other series and done better. And the characters in this are extremely bland and uninteresting. Nothing compelled or entertained me. It's just nothing is the best way to describe it. It's just nothing.

First half is 10/10. About the first half of arc 3 is also really good overall, with some 10/10 episodes. Falls off really hard in the last 5-6 episodes. Overall I'd give it 8 or 9 out of 10 because of how good some of it was, ending aside.

To those who thought it was good, what are your reasons? I haven't seen anyone come up with a reason why it deserves all the hype but all of the negative comments about it make sense.

It was alright, watchable.

My biggest gripe was its transition of genres. It starts off as a harem with drama and
suspense elements that attract the viewer but then later in the show it started to go full
on shounen, while constantly introducing a plethora of characters, mostly minor(at least as far as the anime goes)
that the viewer really doesn't care for.

The changing of genres that I mentioned above was clear when all a sudden the anime was about amassing an army to take down a flying whale. Not only was this uninteresting and derailing of the main plot, it lasted way too long.This anime would have done a lot better had it been a niche harem of waifu fags belittling eachother but at least stayed with the core cast that was initially introduced and had time invested in their own story but instead turned into a "with my defunct power of retaining the knowledge upon death I'll get my enemies army to tackle my obstacles and ofc we'll win, friendship anime and stuff".

It has/had potential but for some reason makes stupid, unappealing choices.

rem a shit, pure waifubait
emilia is not much better

Because some faggots think grimdark torture porn and pretentious, pseudo-psychological ramblings are automatically deep and meaningful.

>but then later in the show it started to go fullon shounen, while constantly introducing a plethora of characters, mostly minor(at least as far as the anime goes) that the viewer really doesn't care for.

This. Re Zero has all of the flaws of Bleach, right down to neglecting its own main heroine.

Some of the worst writing/characterization I've seen in hundreds of shows, but had a magical loli with drills so light to decent 3

Why didn't that drill loli protect the mansion when it was getting attacked?

Why doesn't Subaru constantly threaten to allahu akbar the surrounding area to get people to do what he wants?

THE VERDICT IS THAT I WANT A SECOND SEASON

Fucking garbage.

Pretty shit.

Is Cred Forums the most tsundere of all boards?

>re:zero
>dust ever settling

Unironically top3 anime of 2016

I wasn't satisfied in the end. nothing is explained in how he can transition shit at random times, it just *happens* whenever he dies at certain points. and what happens to him in the end? will he go back to present day life or stay in that world f orever. wtf bruh

Mediocre, lots of fun moments, over hyped, but not great

Still fun to watch

5/10

Pretty good stuff, but with extremely evident flaws, making it too easy for Cred Forums to criticize; pretty much a new SAO.

Except Cred Forums criticizes the fuck out of SAO

>picked this up because Arai
>she's not in even half the episodes
0/10

3/10

Just for curiosity, how many anime did you watch this 2016?

A generic, baby's first edgy show.
Pretty much over-hyped to the max, and honestly I thought it would be that way from the start with the way people were receiving it.
A 4-5/10 show that got pushed to being a 8-9/10 show because it was popular and slightly different from the standard high school formula.

Show is okay, fanbase is cancer and is basically full of Redditors.

6/10
A wild ride, not really "good" in any traditional sense. A melodramatic spectacle.

I finished marathoning it 10 minutes ago. It tried to be many things and I think it suffered too much because of it. I still liked it, but felt it was incomplete. Also, you niggas really need to watch more anime if you are rating the show that low, 6/10 should be watchable. 7 is good, 8 is great, 9 is fantastic, and 10 doesn't exist.

3

There were several REALLY good moments and scenes in it. Really top-tier stuff from the animation down to the dialogue and the sound design, a few select scenes actually did make this anime deserving of all the hype it got, because in those moments, I really felt like it was a masterpiece.

Some of these scenes include the deaths of Subaru in the mansion, the death of Rem(infamous twister scene) and the pep-talk episode between Rem and Subaru.

Still I can't say the anime was overall much better than your normal seasonal not!shounen supernatural series. Just go and watch any episode and really pay attention to it. The difference in quality between eps and even single scenes is baffling. In a not so small number of scenes, the art is pretty shitty and the dialogue seems awkward(thank god the ost is consistently 10/10). Especially the battle against the white whale was, at least from what I'd seen before with the monsters in the forest, really badly made imo. Not only was the picture quality nothing special, the more than silly fight choreography and sheer senselessness of it all was pretty stupid.
For the immense importance that battle alone was said to have, it honestly wasn't handled very well.

Overall, if I had to rate it, I'd give this a 6/10, maybe a 6.5, but not more.

Look, 1 is absolute trash, the worst ever.
2 is you weren't even trying how was money wasted on this?
3 is damn that was so weak I want my time back.
4 is okay, I don't really know why it was made, but I can stomach it.
5 is decent but severly lacking as an anime overall.
6 is something that I can watch and see why people like it.
7 is getting pretty good to where I want to see what happens next.
8 is probably an anime that does very well as show and has lots of elements that work well together.
9 is an extremely well done piece that can be compared to other works to judge them on how good they are.
10 is 10/10, it was okay.

Caca de perro.

I give it a Re:0/10

It was pretty good. But they really overdid the waifubait maid. Finale was also pretty weak. And Subaru was a crap lead overall but that's to be expected from a male LN lead.

>no second season

just kill me

Konosuba makes me not want to jerk it to any of the characters because they are so great
Re:Zero is only good for porn.

I agree, i watched the entire series in a day and completely forgot about it the following...

Anime of the day indeed, no lasting potential whatsoever.

Worst anime of the year.
Best pleb detector after Madoka.

Well here's the thing. I came into this anime, I liked it, but not because of the romance.
It liked it for the development that I thought Subaru would be going through. I remember around episode 15 or 16ish it just got insane, but it didn't really change him in the absolute end.

The ending was especially disappointing, because it just ended up being Subaru doing all this for a girl he likes for some reason. It didn't settle the royal election, the witch and her intentions, the sins (last I checked there's more than Sloth, Puck mentioned Pride), who and why Felt is considered eligible for a princess, why the bowel slicer (forgot her name) was even in the story, why Subaru came to this world. I could go on but it'll be redundant at that point.

The bottom line is I'm upset they scooted all of these loose ends under the bed and gave us a "he gets the girl" ending.

Nah, it started stumbling hard at ep 15 (the ending to which was good, but the bulk of that episode was weak).

AOTY

It was watchable, and had some very good moments. Episode 15 in particular was very memorable.

Was it good? No, but I thought it was good enough to keep up with since Cred Forums was discussing it alot.

Forgettable. It made me stop watching every week. Rem was DanMachi tier, and most of the other girls were shit. The couple episodes after they killed the whale up to the possession were actually really good, and it made me watch them in one go. I caught up for the ending but it didn't do anything else good.

Come on, user.
10/10: an undeniable masterpiece, does not exist.
9/10: fantastic, shows wish they were this good, little to no flaws.
8/10: really great shows, safe to recommend.
7/10: good shows, better than watchable.
6/10: just about watchable.
5/10: mediocre, not even average despite the score.
4/10: bad, should be avoided.
3/10: horrible, might be good for streams.
2/10: terrible, you're close to the point of being irredeemable shit.
1/10: just about the worst of the worst, not even turning your brain off can save you.
0/10: I don't even, this can't exist.

I still kinda mad about Rem.
after a speech like it and confession like that, normally any guy would fall in love with her.
Guess half-elf white hair is stronger than delicious demon blue hair

>any guy would fall in love with her.
On the contrary. Suck me already or go away!

Good show rem is god tier

This.

Probably people will call on me normie and blogpost, but my wife told me stuff like that few years ago when i had really a shit day.
It just made me love her even further

Dropped the ball hard at the end of episode 18 and never recovered,
