TT^TT Why whould he be such a di**? And he even smiles? Unless he is just playing the villain to protect his heart, just like a tsundere, I wont forgive this brat!
At least he doesn't look like the worst male lead I've ever seen, the male lead of "Emperor's Evil Wife". You should see for yourselves how he acts until chapter 20, 'cause thats where I dropped, because I got done and hopeless of the future of the story. I mean, who would want to see a story where the female protagonist gets tortured everytime, also the male lead, which is the most powerfull in the story, an emperor, is the main cause of her every suffering, to add more, he acts like those foolish fathers that never trust the protagonist and are always biased towards the villains like the habitual step-mother and step-sister, that easilly manipulate him, also the way he apologizes is just pathetic, also he's foolishness incapacitates her vision leaving her blind maybe temporarily (IDK). Btw, he also uses physical violence. But at least or even worse, depending on the prespective, he doesn't let her die or kill herself, even tho' he's the one who made her wish for suicide.
At least this Story looks further from that one I mentioned right now, and just thinking about that leaves me relieved.
P.S.: Still I don't know why I like re:Zero when no one in there is worthy of Subaru and sometimes when I think someone is good, they lose their sanity and act like scum at one point. If not Scum, then they are just weaker than Subaru.
