@Raizel1 The thing is, RE:zero succed it because not only is Subaru smart enough (he is normal to the point of having smart/inteligent moments, but dumb ones as well, I can't fault him too much because of the sheer emotional trauma a "wrong decision" get's him in that series), If you have a protagonist that is smart enough in this kind of situation, you counterbalance this by making the setting unpredictable at first.
