Rem

Rem is a maid in service of Margrave Roswaal L Mathers alongside her sister, Ram. She is one of the main supporting characters of Re:Zero, with major roles in Arc 2, Arc 3, and Arc 7. During the first half of Arc 2, she also served as the secondary antagonist. While initially distrustful of Subaru, she eventually opened up to him and even developed strong feelings for him after he saved her. However, at the end of Arc 3, she had her name and memories eaten by Lye Batenkaitos and subsequently fell into suspended animation. At the end of Arc 6, she finally woke up from her slumber following Lye's death, but now suffers amnesia due to not having yet regained her memories. She was transported to the Sacred Vollachia Empire with Subaru and Louis Arneb, still without her name and memories. Rem has medium length sky blue hair that covers her right eye, large light blue eyes, and young features. She also has hair clips towards the left side of her hair, a flower-shaped ribbon on the same side of her hair, and a maid hairband. She looks nearly identical to her sister apart from her hair, eyes, and ribbon colouring. She usually wears a maid uniform, and since her chest is slightly larger than her sister's, she secretly changes the measurements to hide it. In Arc 6, Rem wears a long-sleeved pink dress with white frills at the hem of the long skirt, pink boots, black leggings, and a pink cloak to protect her from the sands of the Augria Sand Dunes. Rem tends to speak in a superficially polite manner and sometimes acts without thinking. She holds both respect to the point of worship and guilt toward her sister as a result of a past incident. Because of her respect and guilt toward her sister, she used to think of herself as inferior. Likewise, she has shown a deep hatred for anything even remotely connected to the Witch Cult for having destroyed her home and hurt her sister, and this extends to anyone who bears the scent of the witch, even if they are not connected to the cult. This hatred led Rem to become increasingly hostile towards Subaru throughout Arc 2, and she even attacked him twice for it, torturing him in one loop and killing him in another. After Subaru saves her, she falls deeply in love with him, becoming one of his most loyal followers. Rem will stick with him no matter what happens, even if Subaru rejects himself. Though her respect and guilt towards Ram remained, her sense of inferiority lessened, and she acted unbearingly kind towards Subaru, often exclaiming that she would do what she could to help him. Likewise, she became extremely protective, and she had the utmost faith that he would become a hero, which led her to challenge the Witch Cult’s Sin Archbishops, even though she knew she would lose. After having awoken from an almost two year long slumber, Rem's memories were completely erased, leaving her in a state similar to that of Crusch at the end of Arc 3. She's very wary of everyone, especially Subaru, even going as far as trying to strangle him twice and set up decoy paths and traps in order to get away from him, as she considers him dangerous due to a combination of the overwhelming Witch's Scent seeping from him after his numerous deaths, as well as his resentment for the last Sin Archbishop of Gluttony and refusal to help her in her current state, for Rem sees Rui as just an innocent child. After some time, though she has yet to regain her memories, she is less wary of those around her, and she has come to accept her name as her own, despite initially not feeling as though it was. She often shows kindness to people like Katya Aurélie, acting similarly to how Subaru was to her as Katya tried to push her away, and she has shown to similar fondness to Ram as she used to. Though she still acts particularly harsh towards Subaru, she has also shown her protective side as well, going out of her way to attack Todd when he was in danger, as well as a slightly envious side, which she displayed numerous times when he interacted with Emilia.
