When I said her love was onesided , I meant from her perspective , not ours . We already know how their relationship is far from onesided . So I was talking in Rem ' s POV . didn ' t subaru says literally in his mind her place in his heart is just as large as emilia ? Did he ? I just remember him saying My heart flutters to Rem . Because that was vague and ambiguous , it wasn ' t clear if Subaru did love Rem . And even if he did , clearly it wouldn ' t be as much as he loved Emilia . before he knw about the attack , he was blushing and all happy when he was talking about her in front of beatrice before he knew about the attack how about when he cofess to her I don ' t remember this sequence . Would you mind giving me more details about it ? how about when he felt like kissing her after confession ? I mean it was true that Subaru and Rem were about to kiss , but would have they done that if Rem didn ' t pull a prank on him ? Sure Subaru had feelings for Rem , but they weren ' t a huge as those for Emilia . Otherwise , he would have said it without Rem tricking him . So imo , because what Subaru said was affected by his panic , it shouldn ' t be taken too serious . I mean if someone who was important to me like Rem to Subaru was about to die and wanted me to say I love you , I would definitely say it without hesitation . So for me , just because Subaru said I love you to Rem didn ' t mean he loved her that much . And for me , Rem sleeping is the same as her dying , because it ' s still unclear when and how she will come back normally . But yeah I could have chosen a better word .
