When he first came to that unknown world, it was Emilia who saved him from the thugs and even stayed with him until he woke up, in his eyes she was like an angel that came in his moment of need. He didn't reject Rem because he hated her or anything, is just that Emilia made a bigger impact in his eyes.

As for Season 2 Episode 7, the only reference to Shield Hero I see is Naofumi's line about "But the reputation it gives you will hurt you mentally". Basically since Kazuma wanted to peek on the girls, he would've end up like Naofumi in Shield Hero: Accused of doing immoral things on girls (In Kazuma's case is less serious since its just peeking).

I think the hidden something in that episode would be Ram's smug expressions. Since Ains is seen as the strongest and wisest, Ram discovered that even he had some embarrassing traits (He liked military outfits, eye patch, basically things that younger kids think is cool). Ram seemed to have planned something, but since season 2 is over, I guess that plot point didn't go anywhere. You do have a point, but the light novels can provide us with more information regarding the love relationships Subaru was having.

Regarding the hidden thing in Isekai Quartet's Season 2 Episode 07, I am not saying about Ram's smug expressions. Underneathe Naofumi saying to Kazuma Sato "If you wanna give it a shot, go on ahead.  But you don't want that kind of blemish in your reputation, trust me"; the teenage boy reminded the Shield Hero of someone he had known. Peeking on girls was the similarity Kazuma had with that character from The Rising of the Shield Hero. Like with Kazuma in Isekai Quartet, Naofumi did not look up on that character before. The Shield Hero did predict that the teenage boy would be in the same type of trouble as that someone. I am going to dig it out from the 5th volume of the light novel version.

My mother had said that it is better to read the novel version than to watch the movie or TV series version (anime or live-action). I find it applicable in the five or six original series. There are information can found in the light novel version of the series that are relevant to Isekai Quartet.
