Let's go ahead and give a warm welcome to our buddy
The man god. Right away
You heard Rudy bringing up how this guy conveniently missed out on that.
Paul info. light novel Rudy really just accused him of being entertained by the entire
thing that wasn't it so funny.
Then he and Paul were getting into this family, drama, him getting all depressed, needing
Eris to cheer him back up. Then with Rudy asking about his entire family, where are they?
Rudy also brought a previous event that he couldn't tell him where his family was, but
he still happened to just arrange him to meet the world's greatest demon emperor.
Come on, Rudy.
Give him a break for that one.
The anime then skipped Hito gami’s up to this that he agreed.
Oh, I wronged you since that's the case.
Why don't we decide on some rules? For example, when was the next time he'll drop by to give
him advice. Rudy, on the other hand, wasn't having any of this.
How about coming again in a hundred years?
In other words, in playing that Rudy would be in the grave by then quite the jokester.
I'm actually surprised the anime skipped those more important part.
Rudy did suggest giving him a warning or you know, how about you is using someone else's
dreams and then have them pass a message over to Rudy.
This is where the man-god said it would be difficult that there's actually certain conditions
needed for him to appear in someone's dream, that he could only appear in someone's dream,
who was in the same wavelength as him.
What are those conditions you may be wondering, who knows the man-god claimed
He didn't even know himself that it kind of just happened when he felt a tingle.
And then for the man-God telling Rudy not to use his real name into the light novel,
he actually explicitly suggested using the dead end title instead of just some random
alias. in the light novel man-god had more to say before he left.
Oh, did I happen
not to give you enough information? if I tell you too much, it's just going to spoil my
fun.
So have fun Rudy. Anyway, back on the boat for a different anime change up by the point
that man-god contacted him, they were actually already on the central continent.
Also Rudy succeeds to Ruijerd was different.
He blamed it on his Eye of foresight.
And since we're on the demon Eye topic, up until this point, he had been using the
eye to see a few seconds into the feature, which now made Rudy realize what was going
on.
That that vision man-God had showed him was actually the future.
Very likely using the Demon Eye. At this
Rudy actually started tracing back his steps in time, had the demon.
Eye really been that useful?
I mean, even some of you in the comments, I mentioned why doesn't Rudy use it more often.
So perhaps just maybe the whole reason that the human God got Rudy to meet that great
demon emperor was to get this tool that enabled him to show him the future. in the anime
You somewhat do see this sprinkled throughout the episode.
But at this point, Rudy was getting more suspicious of the man-
God, that perhaps Rudy was just being used for something.
Why had the guy not tried to contact Rudy beforehand?
Why did he only contact them after the displacement incident?
Why did he tell him to rely on Ruijerd?
It felt like all of these things were connected.
All of this led into Rudy's five second wild theory that perhaps one of those conditions
was that he couldn't manipulate Ruijerd directly. that maybe he triggered the displacement incident
to teleport Rudy over and eventually indirectly get Ruijerd's help. Rudy at this one actually
did want to inform Ruijerd about him, but Rudy held back after all he already troubled
Ruijerd so much. not to mention
He did think that Ruijerd would probably be easily persuaded over to the human-god side
light novel Rudy even went as far as giving Ruijerd a quick warning, bro, watch your back.
And naturally you couldn't end this whole segment without a Rudy moment skipped.
You had Rudy looking at Eris sleeping.
Oh, she doesn't wear a bra.
You say, but still ultimately Rudy was a gentleman this time he actually pulled Eris's shirt
back down and even covered her up.
Getting over to the central continent.
Rudy is now 12.
Since the displacement incident two whole years have passed by.
All right
So the Dead end meeting time.
Rudy went ahead and laid out three travel plans for his buddies.
Here's some juicy road building info skipped in front of him, really laid out a simple
map.
It turns out making and selling maps was strictly prohibited in this country.
The reason was to prevent other countries from getting a hold of them.
Anyway, option one, really to use a standard main trade round time-wise it will take them
10 months to get over to their destination.
Option two, they could take a detour west and head into the large forest.
It was a pretty dense forest across the king dragon mountains.
This made it impossible for them to travel by carriage.
So they went out to search over to horse.
It could just picture all three of them on this tiny pony.
All of this meant the time estimate was unknown.
Option three, this one actually involved taking a ship over to the Begaritt content.
And then from there heading over to their destination, here's some juicy road building
skip for the Begaritt accountant that the mana there was actually thicker than on the demon
continent.
The average beast there also compared to the demon continent.
The difference involved as continent, having a bunch of labyrinth underground, which created
this weird weather pattern on the surface, the top climate, there was pretty much a desert.
You had giant scorpions the size of great tortoise.
Some colossal worms is that a dune reference.
The days here were super hot, the nights were icy cold.
So you're getting the idea is pretty much just a wasteland. As for that rice
onigiri scene.
This is anime original. switching over to Shirone at lightning speed.
You did have Eris asking about Rudy's master Roxy.
Originally he did see light novel Rudy hesitating a bit which really showed Rudy conflict that
overusing the word master.
You may recall Roxy not liking Rudy, addressing him like that.
And so Rudy continued, his internal monologue kept praising the hell out of her.
There was even a callback to that amazing dictionary for the demon kind.
You should also notice as entire discussion took place before they got to the kingdom.
This capital actually wasn't on their travel plans in the first place.
So let's actually get into this chunky anime, skip the adventure between east post and
the stops along the way to reaching the kingdom.
Let's go back a few months.
First stop at Wyvern one week here, the initial plan was to only spent three days, but their
carriage broke down.
We already ultimately didn't find any info here, which is likely why the anime skipped
it.
Perhaps the biggest thing worth noting here is that Rudy actually managed to find some
yellowish rice and then trying to cook it.
So yes, Rudy finally had his raw egg over rice and Eris was happy too. A win-win. Moving
along there still were two more countries between them and their destination.
First off the Sanakia kingdom, one of the most notable things was a rice cultivation.
in the anime opening, you were able to see all the rice patties. for something else interesting
about the dead end name on the central continent, this dead end title actually it didn't shock
anyone really compared it to someone being famous in the US or this fun comparison that
children definitely need Superman, but might not know who captain America is.
It's funny because isn't that the opposite right now?
Ultimately all of this was perhaps a good thing that it should be easier to restore
a Ruijerd's reputation if people weren't scared of him, that's for Eris throughout this, it
turned out that the playful Eris wasn't really fighting other adventurers anymore.
You might not be able to tell from the anime, but she didn't look like a novice anymore.
That one look at this beast will tell you she was dangerous.
And it really feels like the anime is missing.
This part, that areas had come a long way to understanding this adventure style of humor,
that she was actually able to take it and quickly answer back.
Although some things may never change.
If someone really wanted to, she wasn't always game to start a fight.
Next up that Kikka kingdom rice was also a staple for this kingdom and get this really
even finally found karaage.
It's making me want some.
In isekai Mushoku land let's just say it still needed some work.
It's funny because Ruijerd and Eris loved the hell out of it.
Well, Rudy just continued being known as his picky eater.
Next up finally getting to the Shirone kingdom, but you wouldn't know it from the
anime, but this adventure took four freaking and people were mad at SAO jumping floors.
This kingdom was old and small with the 200 year history.
This was not a boat because all the human countries except the Shirone kingdom and the
holy country of Millis were wiped out during that war 400 years ago, you know the one between
the humans and the demons, notably, there were so many labyrinths scattered throughout
this place, which meant there was money to be made.
Naturally you did have a Rudy moment skipped.
Oh yes.
Demon lady.
Let me wash her feet.
This then led into Rudy trying to think about fake names.
How about using the ones previous?
They heard like Shina or radar, but doesn't matter.
Rudy ultimately chose the shadow Moonlight.
This is actually supposed to be a Kamen Rider reference bonus points.
If you're at all familiar with that, the anime also skipped it, but Eris would have been
the sword and Ruijerd would have been the lens of the shadow moon anyway, getting it
to Rudy's letter.
Finally writing it at advanced this time, he actually sealed it with wax and then imprinted
Roxy's pendant onto it.
He also happened to use his real name.
Just gotta make it extremely obvious for Roxy.
You also had this animate moment of Rudy daydreaming over Roxy in this box or not van for really
busting out the laws of alchemy to break down the dirt wall.
Then you actually used earth magic to weaken it.
While at the same time using wind magic to trigger a shockwave and bring it down.
Then let's take a look at poor Aisha.
Aw, keep your hands off that lowly.
Otherwise he wouldn't unlike Rudy when he's angry.
So let's get into the anime change here that got me a little sad.
First off, something smaller and the anime, they actually did not tear Aisha’s letter
up for the actual soldiers.
The anime skipped Rudy blasting, a stone Canon, and then these guys blocking it.
This is some reaction speed.
You know, the water god style.
This was followed by Rudy creating another mud pit and then spamming more of that stone
cannon.
But this is what I really wanted to see in the anime.
A major cut
It was after Rudy blasted off, he actually landed on his legs and broke them completely
shattered.
That was just waiting for this.
But don't worry.
Aisha was okay.
She just tinkered herself.
And don't you worry about Rudy.
It was only a scratch, a temporary setback.
He just healed them right up.
Anyway.
Back at the end, you did have really cleaning Aisha that got skipped.
So yes, Rudy having fun with the loneliness.
I don't mind not seeing this.
It just gave me flashbacks of my own vending machine on the adventure.
On the other hand, you didn't have this subtle, but major cut for Rudy that even fully saying
the entirety of unsure.
Rudy's a little fella down there.
Didn't get excited.
He went on to mention he never had any interest in Zenith either.
This means this is one of the times that the Mushoku Tensei Light novel emphasize that this
rebirth, this reincarnation had affected his mental state and the anime completely didn't
bother showcasing this.
So let's get into the fun.
You had Aisha bringing up knowing about her onni-chan being this degenerate, the anime
simplified this only being related to Rudy's holy Relic, but there was more to it.
Aisha just add in by someone that young, having this immense mastery over magic on top of
that, then becoming Eris's tutor.
All of this had to be a lie. by the way, you should notice.
I shot getting that 14 year old calculation was anime new oh, shots fired on Roxy.
Then for Aisha hearing the kennel master name for some reason in the light novel, she
also thought that Rudy could summoning magic too. The anime skipped this, but this was
Rudy's plan.
He was going to hide his identity until he ran into Lilia.
Hopefully by then he could have restored his reputation with Aisha and overall, this is
really just a fun sister update.
Norn hates Rudy's guts.
Aisha thinks he's a fricking degenarate.
It makes me thankful.
My sisters don't hate me.
At least.
I hope so further skimp was the explanation of how Aisha and Lilia ended up in the castle.
They both suddenly appear.
So they both appeared suspicious and got arrested.
That's not surprising, but they have been confined an awfully long time as for Aisha's
plan of attack.
You heard her mentioning that she wanted to send this letter to Paul.
The problem is that she didn't know where the Guild was, which is why she was following
Rudy.
The anime also cut Rudy's conversation with Aisha short, but I should just kept on spamming
questions.
She asked about the demon continent.
Surprisingly Rudy did admit that he was also caught in the displacement incident.
Light Novel Aisha actually was getting really close to her
brother's identity. Rudy just thought that Aisha was so smart.
They never ran out of topics to talk about what started off weird, actually ended up
becoming their first real conversation that Rudy had with his sister.
This one.
All right.
So getting into Ruijerd and Eris coming in Rudy originally wondered that they get
into a fight again, that they looked apologetic.
You're going to see why in a little bit on a different note.
I just got this big old dumb smile at the thought of Ruijerd pouting over not being
able to storm the castle.
Sorry, big boy.
Let me also quickly mention it here that there is among a version for it.
You should notice that the Manga events are completely different.
If anything, it's the opposite quick run version of what happened, you know, with Eris and
Ruijerd also tagging along.
Just keep that in mind.
As we go forward for a new anime scene, you didn't have the slumbering Eris eating up
Aisha.
I thought that was adorable. before leaving
Rudy also took that Ruijerd figure with him for an unfortunate anime, skip on no Eris
head pats before leaving.
Come on.
So heading towards the castle, I was also curious to see how the anime would handle
this.
And Hey, the anime just skipped it. this involving the servant market.
This included some explored females too, is the anime just moving this potential outrage
till later, I suppose, I didn't mind this Rudy moment getting skipped.
Since he looked over at the expressive girls and saw something he liked, come on, this
isn't the servant Isekai
ham is good Rudy.
They did reiterate that slavery itself.
Wasn't a bad thing in this world.
Although for Rudy, this was the first time he saw servants being so, so openly on the main
street, you do have to thank Ruijerd and Eris for this.
It was these two.
They got in a fight in the area where the slave market was held them.
So now they temporarily held it out here on the main street.
And by the way, quick update for this, I have been working on my notes for the Rujierd video.
Do I hit the, like, if you want to see that the thing is there is so much the anime didn't
cover.
I might need to do a two parter. Next up inside the castle
here's a different anime.
Skip regarding Roxy.
It turns out that Roxy, we actually helped these soldiers, which amounted to Roxy pretty
much blasting magic at them.
This is the reason they were actually able to deflect magic earlier in the fight versus
Rudy.
Then for the Ginger knight, she originally did mention her rank.
She claimed to be 12th among the Knights. for something newly added for the anime.
You did have the guards right before the door.
Those being the same ones that were trying to snatch Aisha back for different new anime
subtle detail.
You did see the knight Ginger hesitating a little bit like wanting them warn Rudy.
Alright, so let's welcome this little spoiled brat fun fact for this guy.
Did you notice these actually Kazuma's voice actor? Mushoku Tensei is just missing Subaru.
Now come on, bring him then for poor anime Lilia, no longer in this comfy chair. for another
anime cut.
He did have Rudy thinking that there is no Roxy here that there is no God, I wasn't really
a fan of this reoccurring plot point.
So I'm not a fan that the anime is skipping those.
Anyway, let's get into the actual situation at hand, you might be wondering whether this
PAX dude was really that stupid to give the guy some credit.
He was actually not trying to make enemies of a different part of the Rudy's family for
a different anime.
Skip for a Lilia.
You didn't have Pax originally using his pen pen honor.
You did have Lilia offering to just do whatever they want with her.
Just spare Rudy.
This is actually followed by another hoarder smack from this one.
It seems like Lilia got knocked out completely then for a fun line over detail idea.
Like they did go on about how the soldiers actually weren't on this a-hole aside.
Of course they were bound by orders, but they really didn't want ice to try to get away
by the way fun fact for Aisha’s voice actors, it's Elma from the dragon maid anime.
So did you like this Mushoku episode?
How are you liking Aisha?
And did Rudy fall for that trap way too easily?
Or maybe you prefer the manga version of this assault for this video actually funding.
They got a good look at it.
It almost felt like fan fiction. post
Any thoughts about the episode down below.
Or just say hi, I do try to read all the comments and as always, if you do enjoy these videos,
smash that like.
I do wake up pretty early, like at four or five or say up till like 5:00 AM to finish
these on time.
But anyway, check out my deep dive going into Roxy's adventure before Rudy or last
week's Mushoku video.
My second channel does have a juice of video on my hot takes for the cowboy bebop live
action.
Enjoy those, subscribe.
And I'll see you guys later!
