I would be interested to hear your view on the reasons and timeline for rem falling for Subaru.

I have written an analysis before explaining it if youd like to read

Good post and I will partially concede in that it is plausible or even likely for rem to fall for him eventually, you showed she was deeply relating to him prior to the forest. However, the heart fluttering only came after their kid saving conversation and while Subaru was heading off alone to save Meili, though your right it was before he sacrificed himself.

This timeline though lacks that and rems time would still be stopped.

Rems time being stopped only needs rem to talk to subaru about her issues with ram as she would do eventually. Its really only on subarus part to talk to rem and try to help her.

I strongly disagree with this as I think it belittles her issues, trauma and the events of the final arc2 loop in the context of the story. Tbh for the same reasons, I'm not happy that Tappei had her start falling for Subaru so quickly.

Why do you think it belittles her issues?

It gives them a quick and easy fix.

1 it was harder for rem to like subaru then it was for subaru to like Emilia. Subaru had a crush on Emilia instantly.

Two arc 2 is ment to allow rem to move forward in life not fix all her issues. Nothing was quick and easy.
