Subaru is the silent type who usually sleeps in a coffin, which is also inside his room.
He is usually alone and never cares about what’s happening around him. Subaru can be described as the loner type. He wears it with the standard uniform pants. There is a small chain loop on the bottom left side of the jacket. His school uniform consists of the black school blazer with the sleeves rolled up to his elbow and a black shirt underneath that is ripped near the bottom and a white shirt underneath it which is longer and also ripped at the bottom. He wears the necklace with this outfit as well. He also wears black pants and has a black sweater around his waist. In MORE,BLOOD (fandisc), he wears a black jacket with a black shirt underneath. He also wears black jeans and a necklace that is wrapped twice around his neck with a golden or bronze colored key on it. The ends of the red shirt appear to be ripped/shredded. In Diabolik Lovers ( game), he is usually seen wearing a black jacket with a red shirt underneath which has a brown belt around it. His bangs are parted to the right, covering his eye. I think that what DL tries to do is make you feel the same things as the protagonist… and more than half of that is fear and panic(? The other is stockholm syndrome and pity(? It’s… truly an experience, it just hurts so good, like a psychological thriller.Subaru has white hair - though it is often shown to be a light silvery color with pinkish tips - and blood red eyes like his mother. For example, Laito’s speech about death is taken word-by-word from his mother’s in the game. If I have to say something positive… is that there is a bit of hidden lore in the anime. He seems pretty nonsensical in the anime tbh in the game he’s pretty reasonable, as long as you pretend that Shu doesn’t exist. I’m pretty salty about Reiji’s tea scene because they merged it with the bandage one and the bandage scene was meant to be kind of nice (it’s in the middle-late game, with an i’m-not-really-caring-for-you-baka flavor). What’s curious about it is that most of the scenes are original or mixes between game scenes. Then again, the anime was aimed at players who wanted to see the boys animated but that doesn’t excuse how awful it is in comparison. insert preaching about the game here- (I know it would be useless, but saying “the game’s story/lore/development is SO much better” is kind of mandatory in the fandom, because it’s true XD)
But I know a girl on twitter who has pig plushies because of Yuma’s nickname for Yui. I know I’m two years late but, no, not really.
Yet even then, I didn’t expect something as abominable as this. So when Diabolik Lovers didn’t even have a good game to start with, there was no hope of a good anime. Needless to say, the Code:Realize anime is subpar (and the detailed art is missing). In the anime, however, it tries to put every path into the story rather than committing to one. Furthermore, you won’t know most of any given guy’s history unless you choose his path, adding more depth to the story – and replay value. It acts as though you were never interested in the others to begin with. From that point onwards, there is no “dating” multiple guys aspect. Though there are five romantic options, the game never feels harem-like because no relationship goes beyond friendship until you as the female protagonist choose to pursue it. For comparison’s sake I checked out the anime adaptation of Code:Realize, an otome game I completed on the PS Vita. Even if Diabolik Lovers were a good game, an anime adaptation that tries to incorporate the romance arcs with all the boys will always be a mess. Just like harem anime for boys, otome adaptations are a failure from the get-go because the studio doesn’t commit to a single story path from the game.
