understandableI didn't read it
As i said earlier, skills in ReZero are absurd and illogical while also simultaneously being true and factual. As weird as it sounds and as much as you would like to call it as some sort of hax, Reid is just a simple stickswinger yet he is so ******* skilled he can do stuff like cutting concepts or making a normal chopstick be sharper than an actual sword. (He is Him)god damn it, another character with BS feats, i tought only touhou had this kinda shit,
Thing is Garfiel isnt specifically aiming at her but just continuously moving his paws around trying to hit anything and everything. The way this works is that Ram predicted every single one of his attacks and managed to find a gap to escape. This is even more likely if he attacks in a simple pattern like how animals usally doHere are my thoughts, we allow stuff that can't happen in the real world but that doesn't mean we should take logically inconsistent feats seriously
The problem here is that if you take this statement seriously and try to imagine a scenario where a character is dodging something 100s of times faster with skill without the faster character having telegraphs and being incapable of changing their movements according to the slower character, you will fail. It's not just impossible by physics, something like this can't reasoned away in a hypothetical situation where the laws are different
In this case the faster character was actually weakened by pollen and inset bites which deprived him of his senses and by turning him into a raging mindless beastBasically statements like these are words without meaning, you can say them but any attempt to logically follow through with them fails
Or at least it can't be reasoned away without adding weaknesses to the faster character that severely harms the impressiveness of the feat
You never said that.As i said earlier, skills in ReZero are absurd and illogical while also simultaneously being true and factual.
That being hax, yeah.As weird as it sounds and as much as you would like to call it as some sort of hax, Reid is just a simple stickswinger yet he is so ***** skilled he can do stuff like cutting concepts or making a normal chopstick be sharper than an actual sword. (He is Him)
We can trought, since there's no reasonable explanation for the feat.You can't put our own logic on it and dismiss stuff just because it doesn't make sense to you as its consistent in the show....Unless you want to argue against every single absurd skill feat in ReZero
TL;DR: ReZero logic is different
So:Thing is Garfiel isnt specifically aiming at her but just continuously moving his paws around trying to hit anything and everything.
And that only apply to the WN version anyway.Cat is so dumb that he swung and missed her hundreds of times all while she wasn't even moving because she couldn't move in time even if she wanted. And as such, isn't a skill feat worth mentioning.
The scan don't say she did any of that trought.The way this works is that Ram predicted every single one of his attacks and managed to find a gap to escape. This is even more likely if he attacks in a simple pattern like how animals usally do
I not sure what to tell you, that still would't be enough to say she can dodge attacks 100x faster than her in close combat.In this case the faster character was actually weakened by pollen and inset bites which deprived him of his senses and by turning him into a raging mindless beast
basically eveything in re zero is a paradox so we shouldn't talke the series seriously at all, got itAs i said earlier, skills in ReZero are absurd and illogical while also simultaneously being true and factual.
sure he can, and thay's hax, as simple as that, skill alone ain't cutting trough concepts unless you can porve itAs weird as it sounds and as much as you would like to call it as some sort of hax, Reid is just a simple stickswinger yet he is so ***** skilled he can do stuff like cutting concepts or making a normal chopstick be sharper than an actual sword. (He is Him)
i sure as hell can, this stuff doesn't make single lick of sens because it's a fvking paradox so i will simply state the obvious, your onmy argument is "this is fiction" , and it's god damn stupidYou can't put our own logic on it and dismiss stuff just because it doesn't make sense to you as its consistent in the show...
god damn right i will, the "dodging every single droplet in a heavy rainstorm via skill" is coming next i will tell you.Unless you want to argue against every single absurd skill feat in ReZero
TL;DR: ReZero logic is different
people seem to like using these arguments a lot
to properly explain why the argument anything goes in fiction is wrong
- fictional setting
In this case/for the sake of our argument, we are talking about the part of worldbuilding related to the fictional universe's physics.
- world building
-wiki definition
Worldbuilding is the process of constructing an imaginary world associated with a fictional universe, developing an imaginary setting with coherent qualities is a a key aspect when writing a story and it often involves the creation of geography, a backstory, power system, species, inhabitants, technology history ect
world building is a fascinating aspect in literature since as long as you're good enough it can have no limits and it can encompass quite the diverse settings the world could encompass different planets spanning vast distances of space multiverses kingdomes or even be limited in scope to a single small village, the bigger and the world the more mysteries behind it and the deeper it's lore is the better the world building is, but that's beside the point
-wiki defintion
there is also what we called inferred world building where authors allow the readers to figure out the details of the fictional world which contains the fictional media they're consuming
what people ignore is this
this goes with everything, anime, manga, VN; movies etc. The author puts various hints and detailes in the story and the reader has to put together the puzzle pieces if some are missin, this is why theories exist and they keep the readers interested curious in the fictional story they're reading, that's why every reason should be analyzed before saying something is inconsistent an outlier, complete utter nonsens etc
let's set out the definition of a fictonal universe first
- fictional universe
Within this fictional universe the characters/inhavitant perform actions that we called feats, a term used whenever a character performs an action that gives us information about his stats, LS AP speed INT range skills etc
keeping that in mind, the author has to create new characters, abilities ,settings or rules in the universe first before saying anything about/ giving any character in his fictionam story any abilities, He cant just make stuff up for established characters, for example, he can't suddenly say "rem had the ability to pause time for 60 minutes ever since VOL1 and she could have used it whenever she wanted" , that would just be ignored as utter nonsens
creator statements dont always supersede their work as It laregely depends on if the statement makes sense for that universe, in which case the fictional work should be checked for accuracy and for how consistent it is with the statement, the basis of how matter behaves in the re: zero world is the same as in our universe through the world building provided, so what's physcaly impossible here is also physically impossible there unless there is something in the fictional universe in re zero to prove otherwise, such as dodging attacks 180 times faster than you are....like really, just give out any explanation other than "it's fiction, everything goes", use feats abilites context power system, anything
basically don't use the "it's fiction, everything goes" argument, it's bs especially considering we use reality to explain fiction, we use physics, measurements , math etc to properly index characters which is unavoidable because that's the foundation for the concept of worldbuilding and is what determines the way matter behaves in that ficntional uni
This is why we always use real-life calculations and observations no matter how many times a person says, "she can dodge a heavy rain storm because it's fiction" or "she can dodge attacks septillion times faster than her with pure skill because it's fiction" it won't add anything to your point, matter in a fictional world as well as it's laws and physics is the same at the basic level as matter in our world. Some of the fictional aspects that authors add in their fictional universe such as KI chakra magic mana etc just has different properties which allow for the supernatural to happen thus most of the same calcs and observations are applied depending on the properties of these supernatural properties
the feat shown here isn't supported by any supernatural property, it's as basic as it gets, it's character A who is appearently dodging character B who is 180 times faster than he is because talent and intuition teehee
that is BS and should be ignored till proven otherwise lmao, yeet it away and kill it with fire
how many times do we have to address this for you to stop using it?Thing is Garfiel isnt specifically aiming at her but just continuously moving his paws around trying to hit anything and everything. The way this works is that Ram predicted every single one of his attacks and managed to find a gap to escape. This is even more likely if he attacks in a simple pattern like how animals usally do
Not good enough, she could predict the next 100 attacks before any of them come out, and she could even aimdodge the first one through skill, but then what?
Even if she knows what the next 99 attacks will be, she physically cannot move her body before they come out and hit her, and even if dozens miss because he's stupid, as long as 1 of them among the hundreds he's going to be throwing before she can so much as move half her own body distance hits her, she's dead.
The only way she could physically do so is if she wasn't 180x slower, and if she is that slow, well see this whole thread of people telling you you're objectively wrong.
The alternative is that bro's so stupid and mindless that he's missing hundreds of attacks simply due to his own fault and hitting air while she's effectively frozen.
Once again, either way you cut it, the feat is nothing.
If she dodged them, she would have had to move her body enough to dodge the strike to begin with, and if she did so, multiple attacks in a row, even 1 every 10 attacks, she would, in turn, become not average human in speed, as she moved a set distance in such a small timeframe that would result in the speed of said dodge to not be 180x slower than Garf.
Nobody gives a shit she's dodging supersonic attacks, what people have issue with is the claim she dodged a bunch while apparently being 180x slower, as in order to do that in CQC you WILL be a certain speed.
and a whole lot more, STOP.REPEATING.ITThe only options for this scene to work is 1. Cat is so dumb that he swung and missed her hundreds of times all while she wasn't even moving because she couldn't move in time even if she wanted. And as such, isn't a skill feat worth mentioning. 2. She actually isn't 180x slower and as such this feat is grossly blown out of proportion and probably not even worth indexing given she's just dodging a dumb cat. 3. There is no 3, she actually is 180x slower, she physically can not dodge, and Garf ain't so stupid he's swinging at nothing hundreds of times (i'd actually be thousands given it's nearly 200 swings each "dodge" she could perform), feat bad, that's that.
Either way you cut it, the feat is nothing.
still nothingIn this case the faster character was actually weakened by pollen and inset bites which deprived him of his senses and by turning him into a raging mindless beast
I know right.god my food poisoning is making this worse, wish i had some friends that defended me as hard as re zero fans defend their "skill" feats
i apologizeComing off a little passive aggressive there. Just argue the points please
Aim-dodging extremely linear attacks from a completely mindless idiot that has had his senses ruined by strong pollen and has injuries all-over is not impossible in the slightest, though Ram keeping it up despite her injuries is very impressive.I not sure what to tell you, that still would't be enough to say she can dodge attacks 100x faster than her in close combat.
This is a lie. Your personal rejection of the WN's use as secondary canon is not accepted, please stop acting like it is.And that only apply to the WN version anyway.
I mean it is a skill feat, but Reinhard is also FTL. Felt told him to deliver a letter in a rainstorm to mess with him, and he successfully delivered the letter by foot from one domain to another in the middle of this rainstorm without getting a drop on the letter or himself. Much to her displeasure.god damn right i will, the "dodging every single droplet in a heavy rainstorm via skill" is coming next i will tell you
You know that's not the problem.This is a lie. Your personal rejection of the WN's use as secondary canon is not accepted, please stop acting like it is.
The LN does not contradict what we know about Garfiel from the WN. Please don't pretend that there's anything in the LN that contradicts the WN's portrayal of Garfiel. As I've said, if you can prove Beast Garfiel isn't a clumsy idiot in the LN, I'll concede.You know that's not the problem.
I not rejecting the WN as secondary canon, i AM rejecting the Idea to use over the main Canon, like you doing.
Because this whole weakness about Garfiel is also not accepted.
I could, but since the main problem of this feat is still the enormous gap in speed between the two, and using the WN explaination don't resolve the issue, i won't.As I've said, if you can prove Beast Garfiel isn't a clumsy idiot in the LN, I'll concede.
objectively wrong + physically impossible + no room to "dodge"I mean it is a skill feat,
i can take a he ran fast enough before the rain managed to touch himbut Reinhard is also FTL.
ah, okay, so now reinhardt can phase trough objects including the rain, got itand he successfully delivered the letter by foot from one domain to another in the middle of this rainstorm without getting a drop on the letter or himself. Much to her displeasure
Cecilus also states he can dodge the rain
cool, bro wasn't stupid, he also knows that it's physically impossible to dodge rain via skill since there is no safe space to move to perfrom the act of "dodging" with how little space there is between each water drop in heavy rainstorms especially when you're human sizedto which he is told that would be impossible
so he doesn't explain or address anything and just leavesand he responds "That's a poor attitude, you'll never dodge rain or slash clouds if you think like that" while he parts the sky overhead by swinging his sword while sitting down.

cool ig, feat is also stupid, get rid of it, but i guess this isn't the thread for it
Let me test somethingyou can't accept that Reinhard can dodge rain, all I can say is tough ****.
She was past her limit, and her body was beginning to break. Her nerves were controlling her body based on its full potential, but with no Mana to sustain it, her body was gradually failing to keep up. Ram continued to move at blazing speeds, still evading Garfiel’s claws.
Her broken horn. Her proof of being an Oni. To release her full potential, Ram needed her horn to draw Mana from the inexhaustible supply within the atmosphere around her. After losing that organ, her body could not unleash even a tenth of its true power.
She knew beforehand that she’d be punished for overtaxing her body like this. Still, she had thought that if the conditions were right and she managed to end the fight quickly, there was no reason she’d lose.
And yet――
Ram: “――You’ve gotten stronger, Garf.”
Ram’s murmur was overflowing with an emotion she rarely showed to others.
Naturally, Otto had never seen it, and even Subaru only saw it on a few occasions. It was the kind of emotion she’d show to her only family, the one who had vanished from her memory.
With the tender smile still etched upon her lips, her lunging fist mercilessly smashed into the tiger’s face.
She felt its tough skin bouncing off her knuckles. Her fist, having lost its firmness, directly felt the recoil of the impact, breaking the bones in her hand. It felt good. She was fighting. She was living. The exhilaration of killing and being killed flooded her with overwhelming euphoria. More, more. There’s more after this. There is yet another dimension to reach.
Her right hand shattered, no longer capable of forming a fist. The tiger with its crushed face bellowed.
Breath like a windstorm pressed towards her as her left hand sliced through the wind and gouged into the thin hide on the tiger’s neck. Blood spouted, and her fingers tore out chunks of flesh as more blood spouted forth. Gory specks sprayed onto her white cheeks as she savored the intoxicating taste of iron on her tongue.
If her shattered right hand was useless, then she’ll choke him with her arms. One arm wasn’t nearly enough to wrap around the neck far wider than her own body. Soaring, grappling, throwing in her legs as well to strangle the beast’s arteries, she dodged the claws closing in to swipe her away. Shifting with all her weight, one of her fingers snapped. The shriek felt good, like she was back home.
Ram: “Buh, puh, agh.”
The dance was so much fun, yet the haziness of her head was too aggravating. The blood streaming from her forehead showed no signs of stopping, and it began to overflow from her nose and mouth as well.
She was past her limit, and her body was beginning to break. Her nerves were controlling her body based on its full potential, but with no Mana to sustain it, her body was gradually failing to keep up. Ram continued to move at blazing speeds, still evading Garfiel’s claws. So overwhelming was her combat ability, not even a single strike could graze her. But the wicked hands of collapse continued gorging upon her body, and the end would come before any claws or fangs could reach her.
Ram: “――Guh, phh.”
After pausing for a deep breath, overflowing liquid burst from her mouth. Clots of blood splashed to the ground, and, as if it’d been Ram’s very life force, her body instantly lost its strength.
consistent or not still physically impossible, i can give you the fact that reinhardt can never be affected by danmaku attacks, what i'm agaisnt is treating those feats as "skill feats" when they're pretty much haxRam is a side-character so it's like whatever, but genuinely if you can't accept that Reinhard can dodge rain, all I can say is tough *****. He even gets danmaku that's the same as rain (except each drop is a FTL duraneg bullet) launched at him and he weaves through it perfectly. It's a consistent thing he can do.
but yeah, as long as she isn't human speed this feat can stay as it seems like she kept her speed prior to losing mana but, but i doubt it's that good anyways considering her opponent is an idiot with easily predictable attack patternsI'd like to propose a compromise based on the scan stating "her body was now as strong as it's petite form suggested", i.e she no longer had the strength from the Flow Method.
In the WN version of this scene, rather than backing off when she runs out of Mana (evading countless swipes in the process), she instead continues to fight Beast Garfiel without Mana, which brings us to this statement:
Due to having no Mana, she lost the strength of body required to sustain her Oni blood. Her hands shattered when the hit Garfiel in this scene due to that, bit the speed granted by her Oni blood let her continue avoiding him. Therefore I'd argue that this is what happened here as well, due to this actually being the same scene just massively cut down for the LN page count.
Full quote for context in case anybody wants it, you can actually see how it got shortened massively in the LN adaptation in the OP:
She actually isn't 180x slower and as such this feat is grossly blown out of proportion and probably not even worth indexing given she's just dodging a dumb cat
"Sigh"I'd like to propose a compromise based on the scan stating "her body was now as strong as it's petite form suggested", i.e she no longer had the strength from the Flow Method.

Who said anything was getting overwrittenYeah we do accept the WN to fill gaps between things, we don't overwrite with the LN Canon trought.
"Overwhelming combat ability" is needed to take advantage of Beast Garfiel's hinderances
He has eyesight & hearing, but the sense of smell that he relies on in combat is being neutralized by a pollen that just straight-up knocks out most humans who sniff it, and it has an even greater effect on the smell-sensitive Garfiel.
2) He was swinging around aimlessly, basically hoping to hit everyone around him at this point. I cannot stress enough how stupid, lumbering, and inaccurate Garfiel is, combined with Ram being stated to easily see through all of his movements. "Thoughtless swings that'd be harder to try to get hit by."
3) She was essentially touching his chest, which when you look at Beast Garf's shape and realize how big he is while looking at how small Ram is, it makes sense why he'd struggle to hit someone in that position: again, while simply spraying & praying.
Actually, there were 3 things that had to fall into place for this fight:
First, Garfiel's sense of smell had to be neutralized with potent pollen, in order to screw with his fighting abilities.
Second, he needed to get pissed off so he wouldn't logically act.
Third, he had to Beastify in order to destroy his own reasoning abilities and make his body awkward.
"It wasn’t as if any of Garfiel’s attacks had hit her. Against those thoughtless, wide-open swings, it would actually be harder to try to get hit."
That literally does not matter when Garfiel can't aim for the life of him, is up against a skillgod like Ram, and is only attacking in straight lines.
I did. Since you using the Webnovel version over the Light Novel.Who said anything was getting overwritten
Even If It was (is not), is still not the same as the previous one of her being slow than him.Anyway, it's still a skillfeat
sure.1) It says it's due to skill
With the numbers of disvantagens Garfiel have, saying that you need "Overwhelming combat ability" is so exagerated.2) "Overwhelming combat ability" is needed to take advantage of Beast Garfiel's hinderances
That is a stamina feat, and is not even that impressive as a dodging skill.) She did this with no durability so any blow one-shots, severe internal damage & bleeding, and a destroyed kneecap.
Totally headcanon, there's zero of mention of that. Her Oni nervous being enough to patch the speed issue is a bizzare interpretation coming out nowhere.Her Oni nervous system just lets us patch up the speed issue,
Which also is not currently accepted on anyone profiles.comes from secondary canon, and contradicts nothing.
Me too, it should be very clean cut.also can't bleive we hit 2 pages
If you think it should be treated as hax through skill, sure. But how? There is no ability on the wiki afaik that is just being able to keep up with being blitzed through sheer skill. How would that even be indexed?consistent or not still physically impossible, i can give you the fact that reinhardt can never be affected by danmaku attacks, what i'm agaisnt is treating those feats as "skill feats" when they're pretty much hax
it's not skill, just straight up haxIf you think it should be treated as hax through skill, sure. But how? There is no ability on the wiki afaik that is just being able to keep up with being blitzed through sheer skill. How would that even be indexed?
Have you been paying attention at all? Practically Reid’s entire profile is hax through skill. Are you gonna argue that's bullshit too? If that's the case we might as well remove the entire series from the wiki.it's not skill, just straight up hax
to be skilled is to do physically possible actions in the most efficient way possible, what reinhardt is doing is physically impossible to perform therefore it's not skill
dude is pretty much immune to danmaku attacks tho
calm down my friend, it's not like i don't understand the heartache of getting your favorite character's abilities being questioned but from what i've seen the wiki already treats those as haxHave you been paying attention at all? Practically Reid’s entire profile is hax through skill. Are you gonna argue that's bullshit too? If that's the case we might as well remove the entire series from the wiki.
I decided to likes all the comments on this thread, that must be why.what i said is interpreting his abilities as "skill feats" rather than hax/supernatural abilities isn't the most optimal interpretation and holy ***** i just got so many notifications out of nowhere
Canonically they are feats performed through skill. I don't really care how they are indexed on their profiles or what you want to call them but they HAVE to be there in some form. The same goes for this Ram feat.calm down my friend, it's not like i don't understand the heartache of getting your favorite character's abilities being questioned but from what i've seen the wiki already treats those as hax
a logical interpretation would be that re zero characters gain hax the more skilled they get, since performing those feats trough pure skills is pretty much impossible
what i said is interpreting his abilities as "skill feats" rather than hax/supernatural abilities isn't the most optimal interpretation and holy ***** i just got so many notifications out of nowhere
anyways, he will keep his abilities, they cannot be removed as long as he performs them, what i told you what shouldn't be done is calling cutting trough concepts a "skill feat" because they're not and they will not be treated as such
i hope this clears it up and hope we can stay as friends
they will stay, they won't be removed, altough they're not skill feats they're still haxCanonically they are feats performed through skill. I don't really care how they are indexed on their profiles or what you want to call them but they HAVE to be there in some form. The same goes for this Ram feat.
also this matches my interpretationCanonically they are feats performed through skill.
the more skilled they get the more abilities they unlock, so they're technically performing them trough skilla logical interpretation would be that re zero characters gain hax the more skilled they get, since performing those feats trough pure skills is pretty much impossible
hope we can stay as friends
Right, but that also applies to what Ram did.the more skilled they get the more abilities they unlock, so they're technically performing them trough skill
this doesn't only apply to re zero but to basically all verses, any and all verses that has characters cutting trough concepts space time ect trough "pure skill" has those abilities treated as hax
Right, but that also applies to what Ram did.
I mean, if the assumption is "She is so skilled that she gain a hax that let her keep up with a opponent 100x faster than her" That intherently would't make her slower than him.Right, but that also applies to what Ram did.
Right, so exactly the same as everything else.what seperates them is that ram's feat was stated to have been done with nothing but skill as in no hax
Yet, the Reid feats count despite also being physically impossible? Your logic doesn't track. They're just simply both hax.and 180 times speed difference, it's pretty much a paradox as you can't have both of them since you can't perform the physically impossible feat of dodging attacks 180 times faster than you are trought skill alone as being skilled itself means performing physically possible action as efficiently as possible, so it's getting discarded
There's nothing to understand.i hope you understand
No, it doesn't mean that.I mean, if the assumption is "She is so skilled that she gain a hax that let her keep up with a opponent 100x faster than her" That intherently would't make her slower than him.
It does, yeah.No, it doesn't mean that.
