Going around social media and other forums, there are lots of misconception regarding Emilia lol.
Anime won't go past arc 3, and probably's not going to have another season. So more backstories about Emilia won't be revealed. Most people won't have a chance to know more about her. That's pretty sad. |

Re:Zero is made by White Fox. White Fox is a fairly new anime studio, but they have shown a willingness to do sequels (two separate seasons of GochiUsa). Just to keep this post on topic - I like Emilia's character design. Very elegant and stylish. She also came off very well in her first appearance in Episode 1.

I am sure this will get sequel, but not soon. Gotta wait a bit to let the LN content build up. I forecast it will come up in 3 years. Quote:
I actually like what the author doing here. There is tendency to feature the main heroine most of the time in LNs, so letting her get back a bit here and let the story flow is nice.

Emilia is very dull with no development. This arc is very Rem focused just like the last arc, I dunno how they gonna squeeze in development for Emilia to make it where she's worth empathizing with.

We haven't seen much of her in the anime other than the "heroine" persona, so it's hard to feel any sympathy besides her design and what little she did in the series so far. Sure, she's a good person with a great sense of justice, but that is as generic as they go. Without any sort of background arc or something like that, she'll continue to be just "the heroine".

Maybe I'm just weird, but I never required hours upon hours of exposure before I actually was able to care for a character. A lot of their worth can be inferred through their interactions with characters we do know and empathize with, for example.
Also, on the flipside, it's hard to call someone shallow if you've been exposed to them so little. In a show with so many characters, that'd be almost unfair. I'd also hardly call this arc Rem-focused since it did nothing but reaffirm things about her that were already established. She has a strong sense of loyalty, which is pretty much her shtick. There's nothing else you can say about her, really. |

But actually I appreciate Emilia already in these three arc a lot, she was already my favorite character before I know other things.; and if it isn't for her in arc 1, I wouldn't have approached this series. So, well, hope that in a few years there will be a S2, meanwhile we can only read. Besides, I don't like that someone (not here, on other sites) to cheer Rem should insult her. |

Emilia has demostrate a decent amount of characterization even if we haven't gotten in depth with her, but those are spread throughout the episodes. And think it's pretty obivious you will learn more about her like with Rem when the that time comes as it is not as if this is the end of story. Same for every character honestly. I also don't know what being just "heroine" is supposed to mean since last I check it just position not personality trait. Heronines in anime are extremely varied to begin (hotheaded, dizzy, kuuderes, yanderes etc) there no such thing as a generic template their all adhere too.

That would make the character more like supporting than main. (When I watch dramas and this happens, I start to wonder what is the main dish and what is the side dish.) But that is only because I'm getting a little bored with the death gimmicks and sadistic torturing on main boy Subaru. I realized the great world building outside of the loops I wanted to see isn't all that great after all. |

Tappei is obviously playing a long game with Emilia, which unfortunately won't be covered in the anime.

Not really, because she pretty likable as it is, even some other characters might be more likable. We just need to get to her character arc to learn more about her. That said, if one insist on disliking Emilia than her development won't matter to them anyway. You can't reason with that.

Yes, perhaps we're not that far away from the beginning of it, in my opinion. This part of the series (arc 3) perhaps serves as a basis for the setting of world, the development of her and the relationship with Subaru. A second season would help ? I think yes. So let's keep our fingers crossed.
