Natsuki Subaru's curse is no longer just a curse.
"Return by Death" grants him the power to relive the past — his failures, his regrets, his losses — over and over again.
But each return comes at a price.
A price that slowly eats away at his mind, his soul, and the last remnants of who he used to be.
Now, every death is only the beginning.
With each rebirth, Subaru begins to carry the imprint of a darker force: Resonance of Death.
This fanfic goes beyond the typical "power fantasy."
Here, heroes don’t rise in a single night.
Enemies aren't defeated by strength alone.
Progress demands sacrifice. Power demands pain.
And every new ability is an echo of guilt, not a reward.
Subaru changes with every loop.
Sometimes a warrior, sometimes a tactician — and sometimes, still just a boy, lost and breaking.
But one thing never changes: his desire to protect.
And this time, he won’t let anyone die.
Somewhere in the dark, a voice is watching.
Waiting to see who he will become…
Echoes of Fate is a fanfic that respects and expands upon the emotional and philosophical core of the Re:Zero universe.
If you’re looking for quick power-ups and shallow victories, this story is not for you.
But if you want to witness the slow, painful growth of a soul fighting fate with nothing but willpower—
Then welcome.
This journey won’t be easy.
It is an honor for me as a writer to make a review for everyone to see. This story actually has elements of many fanfics and novels I have read so far. I read and reread the works of authors I especially respect to get ideas and try to blend them into my own style of writing. When evaluating my own fanfic, I can say this: I am still at the beginning. I have shortcomings and things I need to improve. But this story is a reflection of what I have learned from what I have read and what I have added to myself. Step by step, I will strengthen my own voice even more. For me, this process is not just about writing a story; it is also about finding and developing myself.
I am giving the first review to this book, Mc is Og Subaru sent back into past with a system from his alternate self. I am liking how the story is coming up, I know either it will turn out to be a masterpiece or Author will make Subaru suffer unnecessarily, I just hope it isn't latter. I will update my review after 50 chaps.
Good Grammar, Plot doesn't completely follow the main story I like it. Subaru is making use of his otherworldly knowledge aswell, I was looking forward to reading a fic that takes advantage of that.
