OKAY REALLY WEIRD THOUGHT BUT HEAR ME OUT

So basically I was rewatching Parent and Child for the thousandth time (RZ ofc) and I noticed a few things that could be a stretch but I have to say smthn RAHHHH

First of all, I LOVE THIS EPISODE SO MUCH and Subaru has the sweetest parents ever, he just needed someone other than them to have his back for once. And just like the way he apologizes and develops this epsidoe hits my heart head-on <3

And the most notable thing for me was the final talk with his mom. She says "...50% of you came from me, after all..." Which is like yeah, of course cause it's his mom!! Then she went onto say, "...maybe you can become a little bit like your mom as well."

I ONLY BRING THIS UP BECAUSE

Natsumi Schwartz

Now this could entirely be a stretch, but it was just the phrasing for me, plus he taught himself a bunch of self-care stuff as well as how to sew and how to use makeup, even making his own wigs (as we know) and also, just the fact that the big bow Natsumi wears looks VERY similar to the one in his mother's hair (though Naoko has a much smaller bow, it has a very similar design and I BELIEVE its the same color but it's hard to tell because of the lighting in that episode

AGAIN, this could very well be a stretch I got a bit excited though so I had to say something

[liquidstar]

they translated it differently between these two scenes, but theyre saying the same thing (itterasshai) in both. which, according to ram (and the meta by extent), means that for the entirety of rezero naoko's last "take care" to her son is still in effect

#re:zero #i also think abt how this snippet is literally the only time we ACTUALLY see her in the story #while the naoko we see in the trial is more or less a perfect recreation and is amazing. this is the only time we see the real her #just telling her son to take care. and he never came home. but like ram said way back in arc 2 that means that #her ''take care'' is still in effect #so actually despite all the horrible things that can and do happen throughout the story everything will be okay #because subarus mom told him to take care <3 #i hope somehow he can tell her he's home 😭 i feel so bad for the natsukis dude

Todays rip: 11/11/2023

Your Silent Reality

Season 2 Featured on: SiIvaGunner's Highest Quality Rips Volume A

Ripped by Ahmaykmewsik

Birthday Special!

Yep, its the big day - 11/11th is the day I was brought into the world, and now I'm yet another year older. And I was thinking about this in the context of the blog for a very long time - I really wanted to make this day somewhat special too, by highlighting a particular rip that means a lot to me. Or, well, that was the thought I had back in like, July this year. With close to two hundred posts, I've already been drip-feeding the blog with some of my all-time favorite, most resonant rips from the channel's life. From Battle! The Trainer Inside Your Head!, to Everybody's Special Course, to The 0 Has Returned and A love letter to this wonderful community and my amazing friends - to not even mention everything connected to the Christmas Comeback Crisis such as voiceless and 時の回廊 ＜ver. CCC＞. The amount of times SiIvaGunner has touched my heart and rewarded me for my time invested in such a silly project is frankly incredible, and I've shared many of those feelings with you here already.

Yet one remains. Your Silent Reality.

To say that A Silent Voice was a film that broke me would be an understatement. It to date remains one of my all time favorite films and my first time watching it, I cried more than I believe I ever have in my life. To date I still have yet to rewatch it purely because of how dearly I hold those memories of that initial viewing, how much it meant to be to be able to be so openly emotionally connected to art. Instead of rewatches, its Your Silent Reality that's kept my mind still thinking of the film - a rip that has touched me, and seemingly thousands of other viewers, to their core. Its release in Season 2 just so happened to be at the absolute perfect time for me, and its been my go-to therapy music for every year since.

I feel like Ahmaykmewsik may be a contender for the most underrated ripper on the entire channel? The guy has been around for a very long time, and I've covered his rips here on the blog before with Everything Circus and Picture This Ranch - he's a ripper with an excellent attention to detail, and in general knows how to make stuff emotionally resonant. There's a number of his rips coming up in the pipeline, but Your Silent Reality is obviously no exception to the rule. In describing it as a mashup between Your Reality from DDLC and music from A Silent Voice, and a six-year old rip at this point, you may initially get the impression that it'd be a rather simple effort. But in listening, I get the sense that Ahmaykmewsik himself knew how important the music he was arranging here was, likely even due to personal experience - and went above and beyond in delivering that premise. Small little edits and tweaks are done to the rip's instrumentals, changing in and out of melody changes to other, well-loved songs by the SiIvaGunner fanbase, be it music from Undertale or a cue of Snow Halation - yet it never interrupts the ongoing vocal performance, the heartfelt ending to Doki Doki Literature Club.

Though I've fallen out of interest with the game at this point, back in 2017 the game was yet another game I found it hard to divorce my feelings from - its music and characters do genuinely mean a lot to me. DDLC - most notably Monika - had a rather large presence on SiIva during Season 2 and Season 3, though I believe the plans for her importance to the lore...eventually fell through. Yet that's not something I mourn - in fact, in a way I think it adds to the spirit and feel of the rip as a whole. That knowledge, and the knowledge of everything that would happen to the SiIvaGunner channel over the six years that passed since Your Silent Reality was uploaded, serves to remind me of one very simple fact:

The SiIvaGunner team are, just like us - human.

A non-profit, passionate group of hobbyists, with a silly plan for a storyline, organized within a bunch of different minds, a bunch of different creatives with differing goals for the channel. And amidst it all, sits Ahmaykmewsik - another human, another individual, who just so happens to love A Silent Voice. And though the lore and foreshadowing and all such greater plans for Monika and DDLC seemingly amounted to nothing...Your Silent Reality didn't. In fact, NONE of the rips paying tribute to DDLC did - Your Silent Reality may be my favorite, yet I'm certain you reading this have your own favorite rip of the game, or favorite rip of another game - rips all made from the burning passion of individuals the world over making music. And in all honesty, as borderline fanboy-ish as it sounds, I find it hard to be truly upset with whatever direction the SiIvaGunner channel takes when I know its all for the benefit and strength of its team of immensely talented, fellow human beings.

There's a YouTube comment, left on Your Silent Reality in particular, that I vividly remember reading back when the video was first uploaded six-odd years ago. Part of the kayfabe with the SiIvaGunner channel is that its an entity that rarely if ever directly interacts with us as fans - our gratitude is reciprocated through indirect action, or through dialogue with individual rippers, yet SiIvaGunner himself is an entity so large and all-encompassing to where it would feel...wrong, to have it interact with us as people. The only interaction it usually has with the comments is with a track's original composers discovering and approving of rips - yet this time, a Heart was awarded to just another comment, by just another human. Yet NexusPlayerNA's comment resonated with an entire community, saying the silent, heartfelt feelings we'd all had bubbling internally out loud: Its 267 words of pure, unfiltered love and gratitude toward everything SiIvaGunner does. Because behind all the memes, behind all the shitposts and behind all the demands, requests and disappointments we may express toward the SiIvaGunner team - I think many of us are simply grateful for all that they've done. What was once a mere gimmick playing off of Vinesauce memes has evolved into a magical network of human expression, a place for artists to grow and connect with one another - and a place for humanity to be expressed within the confines of remixed video game music.

"Godspeed, you magnificent bastards. I hope you never stop finding fulfillment in everything you do, because I always will."

I just think if Natsuki Naoko was transported to Re:Zero instead of Subaru, we'd have a very different - but also funny and now a slice-of-life - story

Everything she says doesn't have any hatred or weight behind it, it's all sounding like the airy speculation of a child going "Ohhhhh"

(About spirits, whenever they show up) "Well, I hate small, round things."

Somehow managing to walk away from the alleyway without a problem, the trio just bows awkwardly and apologize for standing in her way like scolded children

"S-Sorry.."

Since I (personally) wouldn't want to subject Mama Naoko to Return By Death, I think everything would magically work out for her and she'd throw around life lessons that no one understands... at first

"That's why you should always label your mayonnaise bottle."

"Um... Mayonnaise?"

Just a nice mother, clapping her hands with a happy smile, unaware to the small crowd of the cast she's amassed behind her, all Team Protect Mama.

#id write this but i would have to think about how to get through the first -im never going to see my family again- depression #but the amount of mommy issues leaves SO many clingy children #and her patience is like the void (i hope im using that phrase right) #just a nice fluffy comedy #all they know is she had a son named subaru and she wont stop talking about him #shes somehow befriended everyone when no ones looking #even on good terms with the priscilla camp. priscilla doesnt know how to talk to her #but she likes her #just getting called mother by everyone #shes in her late 30s+ and considering Marcos Gildark- shes GREAT for her age #i would absolutely write this because the concept is wonderful #natsuki naoko #rezero #re zero #re:zero #fanfic #idea #serving everyone mountains of peas and theyre all staring in slight horror at their plates #naoko doesnt even realize- she just did it because she thought everyone and their child hated peas like she did #its just peas for breakfast and shes the only one getting jam on bread #edit: i have found my solution

terrible ideas for rezero matching icons (arc 8 and ex spoilers)

spica going :D while julius and otto plot to kill her. this can even work extremely well without spica. here is some concept art. im gonna make this one real bc me and a pal wanna do it

^^ add in rem and subaru matching icons if you want (they’re screaming in horror)

felix / fourier / crusch but fourier is Deceased and felix and crusch are bawling

felix and julius………………………….. from That Scene in pride if

rowan, cecilus, and the heavenly sword.

cat garfiel and cat heinkel from garfiel’s theatre dream

rabbit. and subaru.

normal julius icon paired with a gluttonyed joshua.

pandora. and theresia. and a white bird

a set of astrea icons but louanna is eepy and theresia is just a jar of ash

greed if ottosuba icons but it’s a transparent otto going “gay gay homosexual gay” and subaru going “FUUUCK I CAN STILL HEAR HIS VOICE”. add in a matching echidna icon too

greed if subaru / a half-dead echidna. if you know you know

gluttonybaru / random ass book of the dead. like the matching icon to subaru is just a whole ass book

todd and subaru but like this:

^^ alternatively the same as the above but with louis and subaru

main route otto / a literal wall / greed if subaru

cute 🫶 matching icons but one is subaru and the other is satella’s shadow hands

emisuba icons but its them dead and holding hands from arc 1

anastasia, ram, subaru, and patrasche………………. from the miasma tunnel scene

meili / pushing amnesiabaru down those stairs

subaru…………………. and an unwashed cup

cute icon of emilia kissing subaru / subaru being FUCKJNG DEAD

arc 3 julisuba duel

julius / reid beating his ass

normal natsuki family icons!!!! with naoko, kenichi, an empty frame ("Subaru, where are you?"), and a jar of mayo.

subaru + getting stabbed/jumped by rachins, camberley, and gaston (the three guys from arc 1) + a hot woman watching them bc camberley has the dp of bedroom wiles—

cecilus / halibel / subaru (wrath if edition)

subaru, rem, their children, and appa man raising an eyebrow and asking him whether he is fine (sloth if subaru returning back to the arc 3 save point after dying of old age)

rem and “who?”

the barbie and ken meme with otto and subaru bc theyre definitely the kind of people to get arrested together. they literally have in a lost in memories if route

pridebaru doing half a hand heart / reinhard too busy crying to do the other half / emilia killing pride

little kid otto, otto’s cat crush, and the cat’s crush

joshua. and an apple. if you know you know

louis / rem strangling subaru LMFAOO

subaru flinging paperwork off frame / otto drowning in paperwork

the three idiots crossdressing! :) this is the most normal idea on this list.

EDIT BC I FORGOT TO ADD THIS ONE: regulus and reinhard in arc 5 being launched to the moon :)

some of these are ideas from my pals (you know who you are). also if you have more awful ideas or wanna see some of these become real feel free to say so 🙏🙏🙏

#rezero #re:zero #these ideas are all so horrible lmfaooo 😭😭😭😭 #i need to make cat garf and cat heinkel real….. #i have awful merch ideas also btw. my favorite idea is pride if themed birthday card #and journal covers inspired by all the canon journals in rezero <3 #but i think the awful icon ideas are funny af too wkdnd you could make them half and half charms or buttons if you wanted #can you imagine. rezero death/injury inspired charms. otto getting sliced in half by garf but its a linked keychain bc his body is literall #split in half #literally put me in charge of rezero merch at this point LMFAOO

[fairygeek777]

Sadly the Naoko Takeuchi collection doesn't have notes from her either 😔

I really want to get to know her in the same way I feel like I know Bryke or Kishimoto or Mashima. And I got that experience reading the author notes of my favorite manga volumes.

Same with Natsuki Takaya, Adachitoka, Mizuho Kusanagi, Sorata Akizuki etc.

There's space in pages like these too.

Maybe the American translations omitted them? That''d be quite sad.

I want to hear the authors voice 😔

The only question that remains is, "What happened"? What happened that week when the Natsuki Family decided to hike on a trail to Mt. Ebott. Where did Subaru go?

I usually like to pretend the Q&A aren’t canon, but I find the one about Kenichi & Naoko great for several reasons. Here I explain:

When I first read how they met—

Q: Please tell me how Subaru’s parents first met. A: Naoko was being tricked by a bad adult, and Kenichi managed to skillfully talk her out of the situation. The next day, when Kenichi found the same person was about to trick Naoko in exactly the same way, he saw that just giving her a warning wouldn’t suffice, and thought “If someone’s not looking out for her, she’ll get sold off to a tuna fishing boat……!”; that set off his motherly instincts, and he grew attached to her. 

—I was a bit annoyed, because I interpreted it as “yet another female character ends up being written as extra dumb.” And I hated that. But then I actually thought about it and realised it could also mean that Naoko is an idealistic person that sees no wrong in the world, while Kenichi is the total opposite (sees the glass half empty), which I think it’s fascinating and makes their dynamics much more interesting than "perfect couple does everything right!!" 

Kenichi loves that she sees the world as he WISHES it was. And she loves to show him wrong— the world is really that good. 

bUT THEN. But then: Subaru goes missing, gets kidnapped— or worse. And this is why I love this interpretation!!! Because it proves in my mind that Kenichi thinks that Subaru killed himself and says nothing because Naoko still holds HOPE. 

And guess what? As impossible as it, Naoko is the one that is correct, even if they might never find out. Subaru is alive, in love, and making a name for himself. He never gave up!!!

Which is great. Because even if this is just fiction, it makes me think that the quote “if it's not happy, it's not the end,” is actually right.

And Naoko as a character would absolutely love to teach us that.

#also weird that kenichi and naoko arent refereed to by name? theyre just mom and dad... #i mean thats fine tho LOL #they are those things #natsuki beatrice.... soooo cute thats his little sister for real #re:zero

“Thank you for everything!”

[Parent and Child] was an outstanding episode. I was still teary-eyed while I drew this. Words fail me.

While I consider Re:zero season 1 one of my all-time favorite Isekai series I still thought it was a pity that Subaru's old life didn't play a significant role. I think it is an interesting aspect about isekai anim when memories or the experience of the main character from their home world come into play.

That's why the emotional scenes of this episode caught me totally off-guard. We only got to see Barusu's parents for one single episode and I already miss them...!

Great writing and direction! One of the best episodes so far!
