Re:Zero — The World That Watched Him Die by Jelly4515

Summary
I spent the last year and a half reading every Re:Zero reaction fic I could find, and now, here’s my own attempt at a worldwide reaction. The world watches Re:zero, arcs 1-9.
Credit to the writers who came before me, especially Feopyr and “The 4 Nations Witness the Strongest Existence". I used their viewing-description template, and Feopyr, if you feel this crosses a line, just tell me — I’ll remove it and write my own, (please don’t, it would take forever).
I wrote this out of spite because I wanted to prove I could. Whoever said writing is fun is a liar, but it does calm me down. After reading so many fics, I figured out what formats I liked and daydreamed scenarios nonstop until the ao3 curse forced me to finally make my own.Fun fact: if you check Feopyr’s comments, you’ll see me praising their work; two days later I got a fever for three days, and wrote 30,000 words at once.
So here it is — my attempt.I want advice. Real advice. Grammar, characterization, missed details, ideas for future arcs — everything. And if anyone wants to beta read, let me know in the comments.
(Notes will explain my warning and why I didn’t say this at the start.)

Summary
A mysterious accident swaps Subaru and Ram’s souls. Now he’s hornless, she’s furious, and Roswaal’s mansion may not survive the day.
Subaru’s died plenty of times. But waking up as Ram? Yeah...he's cooked. That might actually be worse.

A fun short story about a body swap scenario between Subaru and Ram. Whether the author continues it or not, it was very enjoyable!

Summary
The Cast thought it was over. After finally finishing the viewings, the Warden, the puppeteer who initiated the viewings of the troubling hero, Natsuki Subaru, was about to send them home. Suddenly, two individuals were dropped into the Theater, unconscious. It was already bizarre enough that two people were able to enter the Theater despite all the mechanisms the Warden had put in place to ensure no intruder could enter without his jurisdiction.
However, the intruders were....Natsuki Subaru and Beatrice!?!?
What is going on???

An interesting new story surrounding the events of Arc 8 and 9, as well as WHDAA. I hope it continues.

Favorite fanfic by far, despite being one of the first I've properly read. Always waiting with baited breath for new chapters.

Re:Ruina by TheLastVal

Summary
As the Cast finished watching the events of Arc 4, a mysterious lady takes control over the theater and forces them to watch a future in which Subaru is yet again summoned to another world. A much, much crueler world.
OR
The Cast from WHDAA watches Library of Ruina; with our beloved die-a-lot boy (Subaru) replacing our beloved lollang (Roland).
Please be aware: this is my first fic, and English is not my native language. Go easy on me!
ALSO keep in mind: Spoilers for Re:zero, WHDAA, Lobotomy Corporation (Library of Ruina is its sequel, after all) and Library of Ruina. You should be fine if you didn't play/watch the latter ones, but you probably should read WHDAA before this one to understand what's going on at the beginning.Series

A good work. It has elements and OOC moments I personally don't care for, but the premise makes up for it in spades. Will keep an eye on it and see where it goes. The author is unfortunately finished with it now, but it was ultimately an enjoyable ride.
