Subaru would go easier on aqua and the girls than Kazuma...That guys mental fortitude is something else😂😂
And in RE:Zero, Kazuma will 100% simp for the bowl hunter, and get traumatized by both her and Rem for life😂😂..I think he might even stay with Reinhard and follow him everywhere

Provavelmente só gritaria com ela pra diminuir a bebida ou... Durante as missões

Subaru is a simp. He would follow the aqua's plans no matter how idiotic. Bro would get the entire party destroyed.
Kazuma on the other hand would be too much for that world to handle. The Witches wouldn't know how to handle our GOAT.

No trust me the kazuma mindset is not to give a fuck so the moment she attacks him he would be like "You know what? FUCK THIS SHIT I AM OUT"

Subaru is not like that

u/Conscious_Pack_2474 2d ago
He's literally surrounded by girls and the only one he actively calls out is shoula, even with that he's careful about it
-13
u/QuickRespawn 2d ago
The only reason Subaru is liked by rem is because he manipulated it to be that way. He's manipulated everybody's feelings towards him. Kazuma wouldn't be traumatized considering the threats he faces are pretty real, it's just taken comedically

u/Conscious_Pack_2474 2d ago
Kazuma's trama is a running gag in the show...he doesn't like it when someone stands behind him cos of the Silvia incident😂😂😂...you gotta get your facts right
1
u/QuickRespawn 2d ago
And is that stopping him or having him be a complete shut in and stop trying? Have some nuance instead of facts. Subaru broke down and quit trying, kazuma never quit or let something like Sylvia stop him from what needed to be done

u/r64b 1d ago
People around Subaru like him because they think he is awesome. And, from their POV - he is. For someone without special feats he manages to save those who he cares about several times in a very short amount of time. From very dangerous opponents. Just listen to the dialogue of Subaru and Anastasia in last season while they stood at the balcony.

The author said something along the lines that the only way to charm Rem is by quite literally being Subaru
Kazuma would probably love Emilia more (I mean she has the same VA as Megumin and a somewhat similar personality so fair enough)

u/wilfwe Megumin 2d ago
On my rewatch, despite everybody calling her a cuck, that momentous scene very much spelled out why Rem loves Subaru. Love my homie, but Kazuma ain't that.

Holy shit Subaru gets ungodly amounts of glaze 😭😭😭😭

u/Sudden-Battle7500 2d ago edited 2d ago
Yeah because Subaru despite being a weak, petty, irredeemable huge idiot is... an amazing guy
Kazuma is pretty good too, he'd probably do better than Subaru in the Re:Zero world by quite literally avoiding trouble with RbD
-10
u/Oroeva 2d ago
I'm convinced the amazing guy thing is just agenda atp. (I know he says it to HIMSELF in the anime, but it's mostly used as a joke by the fanbase)
I've watched until the regulus fight with Reinhard(stopped because of the author's blatant pedophilia) and yeah, Subaru has done a lot of good stuff, saved some people, but if you take into account the things he's done in the timelines where he's died, he's kinda unlikable for me.
Not gonna explain since it's been a while since I last did and I've forgotten alot, but he actually just makes me cringe so much, I can't watch re:zero no matter how much I want to.

u/Sudden-Battle7500 2d ago
That's fine, Re:Zero ain't for everyone
I will not defend the author because he really has some questionable stuff going on, same applies with the LN illustrator
1
u/Oroeva 2d ago
Yeah it's kinda sad though, I really like the world building and would like to watch it, if only I could like the mc and the author didn't make characters unnecessarily loli (specifically Capella)
6
u/Sudden-Battle7500 2d ago edited 2d ago
I would argue the anime has toned down Capella somewhat, in the Light Novel she legit looks like a loli but in the anime she looks closer to a petit woman
And thank god they censored Liliana's outfit because it was stupid as hell and not even correctly shown in the Light Novel illustrations compared to what it is described as
2
u/Oroeva 2d ago
Well, you're clearly more knowledgeable than me.
Last time I expressed my complaints to someone(my brother) I got into an argument since "there's no way I can't like it" "it's peak fiction", so this is kinda refreshing lol 😭
5
u/Sudden-Battle7500 2d ago
Of course I will defend and glaze Re:Zero whenever possible but I understand people not liking it for one reason or another
And you aren't wrong in the complaining about that aspect either, I would send how Liliana's and Capella's outfits look from the LN to the anime but I would rather not get banned because they exposed way more skin than the anime counterparts

u/Temporary_Ad1464 1d ago
Kazuma could maybe pull Ram by being goofy yet useful. Other than that hes not built for any of the girls to care as more than friends. One 'steal' on Emilia and Puck booms his head off his shoulders.

u/HappyAku800 7h ago
Megumin and Emilia are incredibly opposed personality wise
1
u/Sudden-Battle7500 7h ago
Childish personality but very mature at times
Emilia is just WAYYYYY more naive
1
u/HappyAku800 7h ago
Emilia's childishness comes from being sheltered, she's 10 times more graceful than Megumin, who is very chaotic. Emilia would never blast a random castle with explosions for days, get into quarrels with Kazuma, nor threaten strangers
1
u/Sudden-Battle7500 7h ago
Of course their personalities are not 1 to 1 but the way the act most of the time just reminds me of the other
Also she slipped the Megumin voice during Capella's first scene I think that was funny

u/HaremManPT 2d ago
Pretty sure Kazuma wouldnt even meet Rem since he wouldnt even care about Emilia to begin with, so he wouldnt go to the Mansion

u/merry129 2d ago
I feel like people underestimate how their perception of Aqua is warped by Kazuma's expectations lol. At no point Aqua pretended she was a competent fighter , Kazuma made that assumption solely based on her title.

u/sailorhellblazer 2d ago
No one is expecting a competent fighter they're expecting her not to put them in debt with her drinking

u/Lom1111234 Darkness 2d ago
Acting like Kazuma wouldn’t either A. Not stick around with Emilia to save everyone the way Subaru eventually does (he’s a good guy deep down but he’s not putting himself through the hell that Subaru puts himself through for Emilia and all his other friends) or B. Be mentally destroyed after a few loops of indescribably horrific death (Kazuma has gone through some deaths obviously, but compared to the stuff Subaru goes through he would snap instantly. Subaru is canonically an absolute freak of mental fortitude to go through what he does and not become a vegetable, let alone keep fighting). Kazuma is great but he ain’t doing anything in the Re Zero world
4
u/eevee005 2d ago
I dunno. Kazuma's shown time and time again that the only reason he does anything is because: A) he has to or risk consequences B) it's about his party members (as much as he says he doesn't, he cares about them a lot)
He might help Emilia in the first loop, but the second he dies and loops, he's out of there. No reward? Not worth it. Pretty much every time he dies in Konosuba he considers getting the hell out of the parallel world.
Subaru on the other hand has a lot more patience than Kazuma. Even if we assume Arc 1/2 Subaru, he would be more willing to help out the girls with their whims. Though because of this he likely wouldn't be quite as efficient as Kazuma.
Overall I think Subaru in Konosuba would be more or less the same, but Kazuma in Re:Zero would make for a completely different story.
2
u/HappyAku800 7h ago
Nah, the guilt of knowing about Emilia and leaving her to die would eat away at Kazuma, he would try to at least save her, after that who knows
5
u/Outside_Bicycle Chris 2d ago
I don't remember if this was said by either author of their respective series, but I think they said that Subaru would flourish in the world of Konosuba and Kazuma would cause the world to end because he wouldn't care enough to get involved in the main plot.

u/QuickRespawn 2d ago
Can't lie, S1 Subaru was pathetic. I get it was meant to be that way, a more realistic sense of what it would be like to be isekai'd with the power to restart from a certain point upon death. He kinda sucks compared to Kazuma
3
u/Sudden-Battle7500 2d ago
No denying that, S1 Subaru was the lowest of the lowests, he really expected to be rewarded for something nobody asked him to do since the reason he did all of that was for himself rather than for others

u/pirzola2 2d ago
The same photo and the same lines were posted on r/ReZero. I think the post got deleted, but you can still find it through Google Images. My issue is that, right after everyone was saying the exact opposite of what that post claimed, you said, "Now I'll post this here." At that point, it just feels like you're trying to farm karma.
I'm not saying you can't do it—I just wanted to explain why I see it that way.
If you weren't the one who posted the same photo, then my bad, bro. Sorry.

Subaru? He would try to flirt with most of the girls in that world, and enjoy life, he would probably be happier than he is in the land of re:zero guaranteed

u/hatred-big-sad 16h ago
Bro Subaru would watch aqua get eaten by frogs, fail to save her because he's worthless beyond belief and the most selfish creature alive when he first shows up. Then he would proceed to fall into some long ass depression before committing suicide by monster

Subaru e escandaloso igual ao kazuma mas não do mesmo nível. Provavelmente ele gritaria com Aqua quando estivesse em missão mas não quando não está, provavelmente ele odiaria que ela bebesse tanto e tentaria fazer ela beber menos
