>>17565You don't really get even the simplest of facts about human psyche, huh?
If MC has any charm, it comes from three things:
1) Time travel erases his bad sides. We've seen more than enough how negative the reactions of everybody around him are when he shows how pathetic he is.
2) He's significantly different from everybody else, and people naturally are curious about it. Especially when they don't perceive him as threatening whatsoever.
3) His emotional attachment to the rest of the cast and the way he acts out this attachment makes everybody else like him too. It's more often than not reciprocal: the fact that somebody likes you will make you like him too. It probably won't make you want to fuck him, but only Rem seems to get wet every time she looks at Subaru.
Moreover, you don't get simple facts about any fictional work:
1) Hype is ALWAYS detrimental. It can't possibly "carry" anything, it can only make you perceive it as worse than it actually is.
2) If Re: Zero is "feels", then most of western fantasy is "feels". Doesn't compute, in my opinion.
3) I just feel like there should be a third point here.
At least you get one thing correctly:
1) That Re: Zero is a mediocrity.
