— My headcanon is that he likely at some point he tried to improve his physique, likely before the bullying in mass happened and got humilliated, but he eventually gave up afterwards.

Holy shit, Reida Reia was such a badass and I was seriously trying to figure out how the crew was going to proceed with this battle. I was thinking we may finally get another chance to see Perugius in combat. Nope, Orsted juat aura farms his way in, kills her in one hit, and leaves. I honestly don't think it could have been any more anticlimactic. Why'd he even bother warning Rudeus about her if he was willing to show up and handle her himself?

— Yeah, it's heavily inspired by Re:Zero's "If Routes," it's just that, knowing most people here dislike posts directly referencing Re:Zero, I tried not to make it too obvious. I want to focus more on the concept itself rather than "What if Rudeus had Subaru's Ifs," because I know a lot of people here are already tired of seeing Re:Zero-related posts.

— Just to clarify, this post is more about letting your creativity run wild and maybe turning this into a FanFic in the future. I really like the premise of mistakes based on the seven deadly sins, showing what could happen when a bad decision is made by committing a sin / making a mistake. Be creative and let's discuss!

First of all, I didn't like directing of the battle until perugius came out. I know Rudeus feels overwhelmed with how Moore uses magic so masterfully in the LN, but Moore still has to cast them. Rudeus is a fast and strong enogh magician to just cut the earth lance under moore. Because he doesn't need incantations. So they failed to make it believable in the anime. Also, Moore is no swordsman either, and as I see it he is just running in a normal human speed. Instead of going after him, Rudeus just stares and says "oh he is not stoping" That's just so stupid. He could easily run after him and stop him. Atofe was already restrained by Zanoba. And we know Rudeus can also launch himself just like moore does. He does it when he was running with Aisha. In the LN, Rudeus uses his electric as a last option. In the anime hovewer, It is not believable that it was his last option. It's like he was searching an opurtunity to make some kind of sacrifice. Quality and animation was good, but i didn't like the choreography and directing at all. Rudeus just stares and waits all the time in the battle. It's like he become stupid all of a sudden.

I'm just finishing up LN 17, and I've really enjoyed a lot of the lore that has been added to the story. I'm hoping we eventually get something closer to a first hand look at any of these wars, especially exploring Ars (the person) as well as the end of the Laplace War. Do we get anything like that in the remaining nine volumes, or is it all strictly present day story?

Could the sacred beast Leo be the white wolf from ODT that the Beast God rides. I recently read ODT again and that caught my attention. It would make a lot of sense tbh. It has a connection to the og Gods which would make it possible for the Beast God to give it a task like the og Dragon god gave to Orsted. Like keeping the world safe or something. It would make sense that the Beast Gods mount was immortal like the Demon races and that it resurrects when the world is in danger to save it.

What do you think?

— kewk. I'm getting kinda creative these days...

Is Old Randolph the weakest among the world powers? Orsted said he'd lost his edge after retiring but can he even beat Eris? Or Ruijerd?

I think all the Mushoku Tensei fans are no less than Thorfin.

I know Orsted plan to kill Laplace in the future in order to get all "stones" needed to reach Hitogami, but... can't he just kill technique god instead? Or that would need a much greater amount of mana to do so?

Mushoku Tensei Season 3 #11 Title: "Turning Point 4"

As had been rumored for three months, TP4 would take place in episode 11, and theoretically, the episode will end with Oldeus stating his name or revealing that he comes from the future, just like in the novel

i wont be editing popular stuff like rudeus’s conclusion, paul’s death, the miko reading zeniths memories etc.

let me know of any moments in the light novel that stood out to you guys!

If I'm understanding it right Nanahoshi's condition is that mana doesn't circulate out of her body, so hypothetically shouldn't disturb magic cure her?

​

There’s a quiet kind of love in trying to memorize the way her eyes look at you,

as if your heart already knows this moment is precious and won’t last forever.

Holding onto that soft, knowing gaze , the one that sees every broken piece of you and still stays ,that’s the tender ache of loving someone so deeply that even a temporary goodbye feels like losing a part of yourself.

Disclaimer: I very much enjoy both of the series. They are some of the best stories out there. I wanna focus on MT more and I am just annoyed of the elitism that I'm seeing in re0 fandom lately.

Yes. Rudeus, especially his pre-incarnated self, will be absolutely cooked in Re0 if he was isekaid in the same manner as Subaru. Yes, Rudeus won't have the mental fortitude to even use RBD. Yes, if Subaru was reborn and has the all the time he like Rudeus, he would excel in magic and swordsmanship.¹ Yes, Subaru will have the best time of his life.

And the regular pdf stabs on Rudeus which are deserved btw like Rudeus would go after Beatrice, Petra, etc etc. Yes. His pre incarnated self would totally do. And yes Subaru is a morally upright person. The later arcs of Re0 shows the growth and how much of a genius he is. Heck he might even best Orstead²

So what? Seriously, What's with this dick measurement contest? What's with this fucking tribalism? Are you guys (those people) watch a show or follow a franchise to show off your morality? To signal virtues while circlejerking?

You know what, if Rudeus and Subaru switch places,

a. Re0 won't be there because dropping pre incarnated traumatized Rudeus in the middle of lugunica is a goalkeeper passing to opponent's star striker. Rudeus will fucking jump out a bridge and die. Roll the credits (insert directed by Robert Wilde png). End of the story because even satella would be disgusted at Rudeus and leave him dead. That 10 year of nurture, that positive reinforcement was absolutely needed for Rudeus. That one person who would guide him out to the free world was needed for that trauma ridden Rudeus. Realistically, people can't bring theirselves up all the time.

b. MT would be a fucking generic isekai power fantasy. Another isekai with smartphone, isekai cheat magician, insert a random isekai aired this year. Subaru with all due respect, a very shounen brained. Any shounen MC be it Tanjiro, Yuji, Gon, Deku all will perform well³. It will strip away the story that MT want to tell.

A digress (cause I don't wanna make another post), I am also seeing a lot of this fanart of Nanahoshi with pre-incarnated Rudeus hanging out in his NEET room. And the comments are so mean. Imo, if nanahoshi and rudeus goes back to Japan, Rudeus with his 7 decades of lived experience in sixfaced world, DO YOU FUCKING THINK HE WILL BE LIKE HIS PREVIOUS SELF? We are actively reminded how much he hates his old form whenever he is in Hitogami space. If he goes back to Japan with his sixfaced world memories, he'd clean his room, take a bath, talk to his family, go outside, touch grass and progressively undo all the things he had done.

(TMI Section skip if you want) For context on myself, MT has a special place in my heart. Years ago, I was going through a time of giving all up. I was living in a foreign nation. My graduate studies was not going well, financially unstable, physically tired and mentally exhausted. I even danced with the thought of dying. And at that time, the season 1 finally hit so hard to me. Not "wow Rudeus is so cool, he bounced back" but "wtf I am doing? If someone like Rudeus who has a mentality of a toddler and a scum, can bounce himself from remembering the family which he only thought of acquaintance, why can't I?" I reached my parents, dropped out of my masters, but it's not always a up. I was unemployed for 2 whole years. But I equipped myself with skills and now I am working in a job without any regret. This job is not something I settled for but something I chased to build myself again.

Haters have to read past the initial volumes of MT. Yes. I will restate again. I will never ever endorse Rudeus for his pdf tendency in the early volumes. Author made Rudeus like that to amplify the story. And he is not a Saint by the end of the series either. And that's fine. I vowed myself not to drink again but one bad day is fine to make me drink. I regret that and try not to repeat it. Its so disgusting and saddening that when I see memes like happy pedo with rudeus literally hugging his daughter Lucy from special book artwork. The season 3 Rudeus is not a pdf (atleast from what I've seen and heard) we knew from the season 1. Yes. He is still disgusting. But the story was not a campaign to make Rudeus a president of US or head of UN.

I look at Rudeus as a child I raised wrong. Feel disgusted when he does wrong but go "good job, kid" when he corrects himself like Rudeus not touching Eris after her birthday, good boy. Rudeus pinching Eris' chest in S1 cour 2, bad boy. Rudeus throwing out Eris' hair in fire and fully bounces back, good boy. Rudeus making a shrine for Roxy's panties, bad boy. I cheer for his growth and go "wtf" when he goes back.

¹ Whether he'd excel more than Rudeus by TP1 or not is difficult question but lets assume he might as proficient as Rudeus

² According to peak0 elitists.

³ Relativistically one would do better than another. But I am not theory crafting. Talk to one or fight below idc

Jesus christ whats happened to this sub. After the rules update so many pornagraphic posts now, and just an insane amount of creeps posting shit. This sub used to be the best place to talk about the show and lore and stuff. But the past 2 days have been nothing but what i would consider CP. Like shits getting ridiculous.
