[discussion] My own theory abt the time events in Re: Zero, based on the “Subaru was Flugel” theory, with some logics of my own when i was in the toilet shitting

Discussion

*note to mention that im an anime consumer only with lil knowledge, i havent seen the content of arc 7,8,9 LN so feel free to leave your opinion below as well as flaming my ass 😭😭
start with the “Flugel is Subaru or Subaru was Flugel” i strongly believe that this is true but the fact that Flugel set up stuff for Subaru is not true at all, i think it goes like this
Flugel attempted to save the world an Satella 400years ago, but Witch of Envy persona was so overpower he had to seal her in Evil Sealing Stone Shrine near the Pleiades tower, all the outer world knowledge he left in Pleaides Tower in the trails work as a vault to store knowledge from Od Lagna ppl (mfs from Re: Zero world) WHILE also work as clues for Earthlings (from his own experience ig bc i believe that Flugel was kinda sure abt another earth mfs could also get isekaied not necessary only Japanese ppl) thats why he uses knowledge abt stars bc its kinda an universal thing rather than niche japanese knowledge, but why dont Flugel make it so both Od Lagna ppl and isekaied ppl can solve it? bc the Witch Cult is a potential threat tho Flugel Satella and other witches cooperated the Cult and its not an evil cult originally Flugel koght suspect there might some evilass mfs planning to do evilass shit (Pandora), and his standard for future savior candidate that their mindset must be out of the Of Lagna to find some brilliant solution to save the world, as well as strength (uk bc of Shaula, Subaru got lucky bc he smells like Flugel and lwk is Flugel).

Flugel DID NOT know abt his future self, nor giving up midway.
shit sounds crazy but i think Flugel didnt reset himself js to leave all of his burdens for Subaru. The clues he left was like a course of training for isekaiers, not specificly Subaru himself or Flugels Future Self. The reason why he suddenly vanished is bc of Od Lagna, if Od Lagna can randomly isekai Flugel and Subaru im pretty sure it can kick them out (Flugel prolly go back to the moment before he get isekaied like when Subaru was outside of the convenient store, or simply kept all his shi and moved him back to earth). Last thing to mention that Subaru got isekaied situation is like a loop, bc Flugel failed to save the world Od Lagna has to redo it all over again without erasing existing events and hope that some mf eventually found out a way to end it but uk its a loop Subaru got isekaied again like Flugel was but now he made different moves unlike his past self.

thats all hope allat yap worth ur time, LN readers, feel free to spoil and please find out all of my flaws in this theory id love to know them, thank you!
