    Summary

    The printing press is an invention of utmost importance. Like, really.

    By distributing a massive amount of information, you can sway votes or public opinion. By distributing and creating books, you can single handedly spread prosperity or religion.

    The value of spreading knowledge is nearly impossible to concretely quantify.

    In unrelated news, Anastasia and Subaru work together to make books a commodity.

    Well, mostly Anastasia.

    Summary

    Algebra in general had only been a relatively recent invention. Sure, way back then, people were unfathomably smart. But anything more complex than arithmetic was reserved solely for specialists and intellectuals of the era.

    So then, why wouldn't that be the case in Re:Zero?

    Historically, "math" and "tedium" often gone hand in hand, given the lack of modern symbolic representation. In fact, negative numbers were only a thing in 200 BCE - roughly 2800 years after records of earliest civilization.

    In unrelated news, Subaru asks Anastasia for a math lesson.

    Summary

    Beatrice convinces Subaru to try journaling as an outlet for his negative emotions to cope. As a result, Subaru ends up writing a thinly-veiled self-insert story about his own life to finally get some catharsis. But after Otto manages to convince him to publish it, it becomes an unexpected hit. Practically all of Subaru's friends have read it, and have their own strong opinions to share.

    "I think we need to talk about your sadism problem," Felix mentioned. "Why do you keep torturing the main character?"
    "Uh," Subaru said. That stuff all actually happened to me though...
