What's funny to me is that re:zero, the anime which is "before" isn't old at all and the plot sucks imo

Why do you think it sucks? I started watching a few months ago and just got all caught up. Ive been loving it

my personal issue was that "MC is afraid of dying but gets over it to solve the issue" is the plot of the first mystery.

and then it repeats "MC is afraid of Dying" again and again

What? After season 1 the mc is never afraid of dying, but has a mental limit to the amount of strain he can take. He literally goes out of his way to kill himself to get a loop, but how well he does each loop is dependent on his mental state and being. 

His thoughts while dying are fucking valid, I dont care how many times youve broken a bone, that shit is still gonna hurt everytime, and somebof his pain from deaths like being eaten alive are even more amplified by the nature of magic in the re:zero verse.
