    WARNING MATH RANT:
    The area of a circle is equal to Pi times Radius squared. If we go by the image of the crater in 1:14 and compare it to the radius of the patch of land that the knight healed, we could say that the crater has 6 times the radius of that patch of grass.
    Now in 2:10 we can see an approximated height of 5cm or 2 in for the grass the knight was able to grown. We also see that Myne's grass grows so rapidly that it covers the knight's head with easy. An average human male's head has a circumference of 57.2cm/22.5 in. that's a height of approximately 18cm/7in. We can guess that Myne could have easily surpassed this and grown grass as tall as 25cm/ 10in.
    Grass also needs to grow roots properly. This part is a little more tricky since the estimates are all over the place. Some of the deepest roots can be 2.4m/8ft deep and as short as 7.5cm/3in. We will average how deep the roots grew by a factor of three times its height.
    This means that the Knight grew grass 5cm/2 tall and 15cm/6in deep while Myne grew grass 25cm/10in tall and 75cm/30in deep. This tells us that Myne grew a patch of grass 6 times the radius of the patch the Knight grew, and 5 times as deep/tall. Back to the area formula of a circle we can see that a 6 times higher radius results in 36 times the area. This we multiply by 5 times the total height and depth of the grass and we obtain that at the bare minimum Myne grew 180 times more grass than the knight did while barely breaking a sweat!
    This is a rather way of saying... Myne is a savage!

      @@richardwroblewski8458 To be fair, I kept it somewhat simple as I took the crater as a circle instead of a semi-sphere. Doing so would've provided more surface area. Also I simplified grass roots length and kept it at the same ratio for both Myne and the Knight. In truth, the grass that Myne grew would've needed deeper roots to stay that tall and/or the knight's grass would've needed more shallow roots. I'm not a gardener so a quick read and oversimplification is as much as I can do.
      I am very glad for the very positive reaction that many (you included) have shown over my comment. Thank you all!

      not exactly. The High Priest tells her to shove it in their faces to make them accept why a commoner would be given the blue robes so she figures she can go all out and pour in as much mana as possible, opening the lid of the box she puts her mana in and letting it run through her body, with the mana seeking the staff as an outlet.

      not...really. Like 95% of the devoured children barely have enough mana to qualify as low ranked nobles. Myne is completely irregular. She's only survived that long because of that whole soul coming from another world and that absurdly strong obsession for a goal (books) helping her to keep in check her own mana, as well as the usage of a magical item one year prior.

      Whether the sick and poor don't rank up as low nobles is not really relevant: a low-level mage still has an advantage over a normal, no matter how meager. Plus, not dying is always a benefit.
      I will concede, however, that Myne/Main's soul-linking exceptionality as well as her *utmost determination* to become a librarian grants her a strength of will that few possess in the setting.

      It’s always amusing to find that almost every new character (particularly non-evil nobles) will make the same observations about Myne’s appearance, usually about her hair and eyes, when meeting her for the first time. They see her glossy dark-blue hair as reminiscent of the sky after sunset and her golden eyes being like the moon, and often take these traits as evidence of the God of Darkness and Goddess of Light’s blessings.
      One of my favourite passages in the Light Novel is from the first Volume where just after Tuuli makes this observation, Myne starts contemplating how genetics must factor into these traits only to conclude that thinking about it would just be a waste of time.
      I’ve come to the conclusion that rather than being strictly genetic, a person’s hair/eye colours are often influenced their birth season and elemental affinities, respectively.

      I like the premise since it seems like nobility does not have so much mana anymore but same time the most prominent families became nobility largely BECAUSE they had vast amounts of mana in generations prior. You could say Myne is more of a noble by origin than most of the nobles alive despite lacking any pedigree.
      By the way some nobles react I would imagine her to be someone on par with royalty (esp reactions of our Blue Haired priest who likely met royalty 1st hand many times)... which arises many questions for them, many problems for her and oh so many possibilities for future.

    Out of context, this may seem like nothing.
    One would have to watch the show to truly comprehend how much this moment is earned. Even though the show promised fantasy elements from the start, it generally shied away from them to focus on more mundane concerns. The main draw of this series is its focus on the mundane...Myne bringing some of Japan's creature comforts to this world, her business, the social challenges of being a pseudo-noble priestess who's actually a commoner. It has been implied throughout that she's pretty powerful, the end of the first season makes that clear, but they don't wear it out like other isekai do.
    As a result, this moment is impactful. It's a culmination of two seasons while not CONSUMING those two seasons. This series has so much going for it, so many meaningful threads, that there is plenty left for Myne to do without focusing solely on fantastical elements.
    And that's why I love this isekai. It is like no other.

      good eyes, yeah that's a mistake. He's the only one in the bunch that does NOT wear a yellow cape.

    I love this anime so much. I was always excited to watch if they do a 3rd season I think I will watch from the beginning. This was just one of the few that made me happy to watch even if it was a simple magic adventure anime that just felt fun to watch.😋

    For everyone who likes the show a lot I recommend you get the light novels there is plenty the show leaves out

      Just bought the first and have the next 2 shipping. Reading it out loud to my husband. We hit random and it was glorious.

    another one of my favorite moments in this show.
    just like at the end of season 1 when she used the Crushing on the High Priest.
    can't wait for season 3

      I dont think it means anything, i dont want to be some prophet of doom but if anything, it would mean that the anime is unlikely to get another season, there are some animes that end with "and the stor goes on" or something similar to that and havent got next season for quite a few years. I really hope it means nothing though and bookworm gets that highly deserved season 3
