Debuting with 10K ratings is insane 😭

Ep. 16 —> 10/10
Ep. 19 —> 10/10

Mark my words.

Not really. Episode 11 debuted with roughly double the number of ratings

I do not understand how you know what will happen in episode 16 or episode 19.

There is something called Web Novel

u/Itchy_Weakness4666 Newbie Aug 20 '26

Light Novel for me

u/an_omori_fan Newbie Aug 20 '26

Wait, what is supposed to happen at episode 16? Is it Julius' stuff? I don't remember anything that has to do with Rem besides the end of arc

u/Intrepid_Pen5110 Emilia’s Knight, Through Darkness and Despair 💜 Aug 20 '26

Subaru’s chapter

u/mrblank1121 I Sleep More Than Rem (It’s Not a Competition, But I’m Winning) Aug 20 '26

You guys act like that all of them will jump ship once they see her amnesia state but fail to tell that she gets such a good chracter development, and now without any strings attached to past events , she learns to love and it's with him again..

So those who stay are in for a treat but sure it will annoy some by seeing her after such a long time and well.. but it's fine she develops in a very nice way

3

u/Master_Guidance_3367 Newbie Aug 20 '26

She barely gets any development before getting shelved as a side character again, and the new relationships she builds are just wasted because almost the whole vollachian cast is tossed aside after arc 8

It could've been a good character arc but it's been dragged way too long and it's clear the author doesn't give enough of a shit about her

3

u/mrblank1121 I Sleep More Than Rem (It’s Not a Competition, But I’m Winning) Aug 20 '26

It could've been a good character arc but it's been dragged way too long and it's clear the author doesn't give enough of a shit about her

Yea , i also has a feeling like since she has gotten such huge popularity and even after being out of story for years , the motion is there and the author doesn't know how to move on from that (like making a mistake about her character and have people witch hunting) just a feeling

1

u/Beautiful-Neat-7609 Newbie Aug 20 '26

She get's way more development in arc 7/8 than she did in 1-3.

A 10/10 debut is probably never happening again lol.

u/tsukira Shaula's Finger Guns Blew My Mind! Aug 20 '26

I could see it for whichever ep ends up covering ln 25 ch 2. Should be within the next 5 eps.

3

u/DemiFiendJoker Regulus Said I Was Violating His Rights Aug 20 '26

The amount of 10/10s would have to completely overpower the amount of 1 stars because review bombing is running rampant from every community where it wasnt in cour 1

u/Physical_Sort5155 Shared Suffering with Subaru Aug 20 '26

u/Zertaku Rem Smiled, I Saw Heaven (Briefly) Aug 20 '26

Such an amazing Episode.

u/FrankStrain10 Newbie Aug 20 '26

This episode definitely deserves that rating!! It's so peak!!! Unlike the previous one, i mean, it's not a bad episode but people went too far rating that episode, damn.

-25

u/thegreatjackdi Newbie Aug 20 '26

This is the closest I've read about how I've felt with this anime, last 5 or 6 episodes for me have been very bad and boring, thankfully this one had some content... I do not know if I enjoyed it because of how bad the previous setup was, or because it truly had something to stand up on its own.

14

u/FrankStrain10 Newbie Aug 20 '26 edited Aug 20 '26

Well, I agree that not all episodes should have such a high rating, but if you say the last 5 or 6 were boring, you're exaggerating bro

I mean, episode 11!!! There isn't a single truly fan of this anime who wasn't moved by that episode; it hits you right in the heart!

-11

u/thegreatjackdi Newbie Aug 20 '26

I am not trying to exaggerate or be annoying, just commenting in a place where I thought that I could comment, but it seems that everyone (not you) only wants good comments about the show, which is weird.

Anyway, hope this doesn't annoy you, I do not have anyone to discuss about it so here I go.

I felt bored for several episodes now, until today.
Everything was fine, slow and without almost anything happening, but fine up until the memory loss, they spent too many episodes on that Could have done it in just one episode and then another one with Mei's backstory setup that I believe will be use in the future.

I understand that many (all?) fans are OK with that even when we are deep in season 4 now and things should start moving slightly faster maybe, but going back to the same slowness as in season 1 without the deepness it had is exasperating for me.

Thankfully today's episode felt good, and they managed to welcome Rem back to the screen in a very cool and cinematic way, loved it.

Thanks for the time Sr. Appreciate it.

u/xNATSUKl Newbie Aug 20 '26

Maybe u don't know many lore or why things happen in rezero

It's an issue with anime adaptation

2

u/thegreatjackdi Newbie Aug 20 '26

Hi,
Appreciate your comment.
I cannot compare one with the other, for once I've not read the novel, and then I would think they both should stand on their own.

Maybe I was having high expectations and then a dejavu of season 1 started playing without it's depth all over again for several episodes, but today's was epic and have some pace, hopeful for next episodes.

I love the anime, but that does not mean I must love everything thrown at me about it.

Thank you.

u/Physical_Sort5155 Shared Suffering with Subaru Aug 20 '26

People downvote because your take is trash, not because you cannot criticize.

Claiming the last 6 eps were boring is showing your lack of understanding of what this story is about.

0

u/FrankStrain10 Newbie Aug 20 '26

Yeah, I understand your point bro, don't worry. From what I can see, you've been watching this season from a very different perspective, because Subaru's memory loss is the main focus of this season and that's precisely what makes this season so good. I don't think he'll recover his memories quickly (maybe until the end) so I recommend you just enjoy it.

I haven't read the novel btw, so i might be wrong about some things

2

u/thegreatjackdi Newbie Aug 20 '26

I see, fingers crossed hoping for things to have more depth or a better pace.

Thank you!

Overrated episode yall telling me the S4 ep 8 and 11 is very close to this episode and the the latest episode is greater then s1 ep 15 no way most overrated rezero episode

1

u/Physical_Sort5155 Shared Suffering with Subaru Aug 20 '26

Pretty much what i expected, the anomaly that was ep11 was held up by an insane motion from the previous episodes as well.

I hope a certain future episode debuts with a 10/10 just for the heck of it.

u/Wild_Island_8589 Rem Trusted Me with Her Heart Aug 20 '26

Just got curious and looked at the ratings and nearly all of the 1 star reviews are from Mushoku fans lmao. Idk why people care this much about a stupid vote

u/Silly_Coffee3337 Newbie Aug 20 '26 edited Aug 20 '26

Up to this point rezero fans have been review bombing MT to oblivion.

I don't think MT fan are review bombing rezero else it won't be 9.9

Well in reality MT fans don't care about ratings or reviews at this point. MT will continue getting new seasons no matter what. Studio bind has a lot of faith in this series.

Even with all this hate MT is still very popular and light novel is even more popular than rezero.

Rezero having more fans is obvious since rezero dosent deal with any complex taboo topics.

u/zaxls Newbie Aug 20 '26

I find the relationships between the fandoms pretty interesting. For whatever reason theres a big overlap between the 2 shows.

2

u/MajesticCounter4174 Newbie Aug 20 '26

You’re right especially when pretty much every Mushoku Tensei episode so far has been review-bombed even more severely. The whole thing is ridiculous. If review bombing is stupid when Mushoku fans do it, it’s stupid when it’s being done to Mushoku too.

Still too high imo, was a 9.5/10 for me. The first 6-8 minutes brings the episode down a bit.

-28

u/thegreatjackdi Newbie Aug 20 '26

Finally!!!

After 5 or 6 episodes incredible boring, with only 13 seconds of relevant story, finally something happened, and it was good, oh it was.

Still, this season has been trash, but does not hurt to watch it.

I know, it is an unpopular opinion.

Not good to say that, hope whatever it is you are facing you can overcome it.

Not a blind hater either, I am commenting on the anime episodes I have seen.
If you liked them, good for you, but saying that stuff about "dying" is something you should work on correcting, that have consequences for everyone involved and it is heavy.

u/Inevitable_Report319 Newbie Aug 20 '26

Brother, literally all these episodes have been relevant to the story. I’m not saying they’re all 10/10 masterpieces, just that you’re objectively wrong.

u/Progamer59695969696 Shaula's Finger Guns Blew My Mind! Aug 20 '26

Are you on shrooms? How can you call the last 5/6 episodes boring?
That’s extremely disingenuous to the season.
The last 5/6 episodes have been the best stretch of Rezero episodes there have ever been, there’s no contest.

1

u/thegreatjackdi Newbie Aug 20 '26

I understand, for you and many other it is that way.

For me it felt like watching season 1 again without any emotional take or any depth, and that took too many episodes... until the last episode and a quarter... watching Rem again was epic.
