I apologize if you were offended. Curiosity got the better of me.
My whole "go on a journey to become stronger" fanfic is certainly clichee. Iīm not so much offended as I am irritated. Of course, I could come up with dozens of non-clichee scenarios, but thatīs not exactly a feat, either, is it. We have a fixed catalogue of situations that keep occurring in anime. Each of these situations has another fixed catalogue of possible reactions/consequences. In the case of Subaru and seeing how weak he is, finding a way to get stronger is both clicheed as it is reasonable to expect. If I started creating routes that diverge too much from that catalogue, it might be a fun fanfic, but in 99% of all cases Iīd waste my time, because nobody is interest in reading random fanfic.

As for what David is touching upon, I agree. I donīt know if it was earlier in this thread or elsewhere that I mentioned that maybe Subaru isnīt that great, nice guy whoīs out there to help everybody for their sake. Itīs always been weird that he was introduced as a hikkikomori. Maybe thereīs a darker side to his personality.
