Subaru, in RBD 240, cannot remember his own sins. He cannot remember his own promises. He asks the reader to forgive him for being weak. By projecting this question onto a third party (Nana Aoyama), the fandom is actually asking: Do you forgive Subaru for breaking?
But try telling that to your heart when you hear the first piano key of "Door" and flinch. rbd 240 do you forgive nana aoyama
There are two camps in the fandom: These fans argue that connecting Nana Aoyama’s music to RBD 240 was a curse. They cannot listen to her voice without feeling the phantom pain of the Watchtower. They argue that the music elevates suffering to the point of being unfair to the reader. They hold a grudge against the song for making Re:Zero hurt more than it needed to. "I don't forgive her. Every time I hear 'Door,' I see Subaru forgetting Rem's face. I didn't ask for that connection. She haunts my playlist." 2. The Camp That Forgives (The "Subaru" Camp) These fans argue that the pain is the point . Nana Aoyama’s song gave voice to Subaru’s internal silence. It transformed a horrific scene into a masterpiece of tragic art. Forgiving her means accepting the suffering of Arc 6 as necessary for Subaru’s character growth. "I forgive her. She didn't cause the pain; she translated it. Without her, RBD 240 is just horror. With her, it's catharsis. Forgiving her is forgiving Tappei for writing the loop in the first place." The Deeper Metaphor: Forgiving Yourself The true brilliance of the "Do you forgive Nana Aoyama?" meme is that it is a Rorschach test for your empathy towards Subaru.
