QUESTION
日本語 (ORIGINAL)
ENGLISH TRANSLATION
Even though Rem's existence was erased from the world's memory by Gluttony, why was Subaru alone capable of clearly remembering her?
ANSWER· Tappei Nagatsuki(Original Author)
日本語 (ORIGINAL)
ENGLISH TRANSLATION
Because Subaru is an otherworlder and bears Return by Death, a peculiar Authority (Witch Factor blessing) that refuses alterations to the world's causality and Od Lagna's records. His soul's observational register operates independently of the world's normal laws.
Translation Note:Crucial confirmation of Subaru's immunity to memory tampering due to his otherworldly origin and Witch Factor.
