From Linia and Pursena's perspective, they got off easy. Linia herself was talking about stripping Rudeus naked and throwing water on him earlier in the episode. When Rudeus talked about doing it to them, the very thing they want to do to him, and which their people had done to him, they were like "anything" but that, and they really meant it. What they went through was actually of lesser concern to them, then the actual punishment embraced by their own people. People are all up in arms about some light groping, but the context of the situation, Linia and Pursena should have expected far worse, and they "knew" it. That's why they got concerned when he said that figure was of his God, because they knew the penalty of disrespecting their divine beast: public humiliation and then death.
It's a shame because it makes the punishment look unjustified. They're spoiled brats who were sent to that school as a way to reform them but their statuses as princesses, only made it worse. They needed to be knocked down a peg, Gustav and Gyes would actually be grateful for this behavior shift.
at least they only show one when he actually grobe both, but yea wasnt very proud of rudy at that moment but well no one is perfect and that what i like about this show. Man as flaw and rudy as many of those but he my favorite after how it ended for him, he really came from far to be the man he is at the end
@@KyubiANDnaruto I'm not saying he didn't do anything wrong, but groping a woman in MT world is barely constituted as sexual harassment, meanwhile in our world it's like worse than murder so I think people get a little too upset about it and they need to calm down.
Remember that the beast people are a little bit weird. While Rudeus' actions are out of line for humans, in terms of how beast people conventionally think and act, what happened to them is no big deal. Beast people have some "dominance theory" stuff going on where social heirarchy is determined by strength... which means they have alpha males and alpha females. They even fight for mates. Beating or being beaten by a beast-person tends to mean anything goes. Linia and Pursena basically said "you can do whatever, but no sex unless you're willing to court and marry". If they had won vs Rudy, there is a non-zero chance that they would have sexually assaulted him too. They would have been more upset by being stripped nude and having water splashed on them - which is something all beast people hate. That dominance theory stuff came up with Ghislaine, because she refused to ever accept being "beaten" and kept on trying to fight for social hierarchy, to the detriment of even attempting to learn how to interact with non beast people and functioning in a civilized manner. Her tribe was so exasperated with her that they essentially deemed her feral and were almost ready to throw her out. She was playing by her instincts, but they were clashing with the "rules", and some beast people really struggle with that.
It doesn't really matter how beast folk are, rudeus is not one of them and he acted like he did back in season 1, without a second thought, and it was just played for laughs. I was sure he had developed away from this garbage part of his character, but it seems I was wrong, not even Sylphie seemed to care, his shitty actions had no consequence.
@@Henrique-wv9xqProof why Eris is best girl. She would have knocked some sense into Rudy. I feel like they made Sylphie character to submissive to Rudy. I hope that changes in the future.
@@Henrique-wv9xq He had it really bad in his past life dealing with bullies, it would make sense that he'd treat bullies very harshly. And you can disagree, but i personally don't think he went too far here, because i doubt he would do this to any random girl for no reason.
It's fine to dislike Rudeus for being a perv. And still enjoy the story of MT. Just remember the events are happening in another world where the characters have different morals and common sense from us. Linia and Pursena were more upset about being tied up and not being fed than anything else Rudeus did including beating them up and groping Pursena. Don't have high hopes of Rudeus being a model citizen and you'll be less stressed.
7:52 he agreed because he was super confident he would win, he’s a blessed child after all. In the end he only really lost because of the paralyzing magic beast people can use (the same that Gyes used in Rudeus in season 1, and the one Pursena was trying to use later this episode, but got interrupted by Rudeus)
For Pursena and Linia that speak Nya, Nya, Nya or Meow, Meow, Meow. Rudy mocking them because they can't speak Human Properly because all the Beast people he met that can speak Human they can talk normaly. For example Gyes, Gustav, Ghislaine.
It's not even that. It's that normally beast people drop the "beastial noises" once they're out of adolescense. It's considered slightly embarassing to still be doing it as an adult, because it's the sort of thing they'd consider childish.
Pursena try to Using Voice Magic to knock them out. Its a Magic that only Beast people can do it. For example like episode 13 when Rudeus Pass Out after Gyes Screaming at him, It was Voice Magic. So when she try to using Voice Magic, Rudy Shot a Stone Canon that exploding to a Dust to stop her Using Voice Magic.
You are wrong on one point, not only beast folk can use voice magic. In LN Rudy himself practiced doing it, with little succes but still. It’s just a very niche magic, naturally only people close to beast folk know and learn it. Or perhaps other knowledgeable characters…
Rudeus seriously worships Roxy as a goddess (like a devout Christian). Especially in these years since he has been alone, he has been living with a broken heart and clinging to the presence of Roxy, and now you could say that he is a fanatic. His crazy behaviors this time are because he is mad with rage over the fact that his goddesses were defiled by them. Of course his behavior is wrong, as he regrets after he has cooled down, but I just wanted to tell you that there is no sexual agenda at all. As for the Roxy statue, it was originally clothed and was made to be removable, so when it was destroyed, the clothes came off. Anyway, this is just a comedy episode, so I hope you don't take all the actions too seriously.
Last episode: "if that keeps you going then i won't shame you or fault you for it, survive." This episode: "It is creepy you psychopath, you and your pervy tendencies" ....Well which is it? 😂
9:34 That, was Rudy seeing with his eye of oracle that Pursena was about to use the same voice skill that paralyzed him back in the great forest incident, also being how they managed to defeat Zanoba before, so Rudy shot a hollow stone cannon to explode into sand and interrupt her. Once their trump card was done, the rest was easy.
A little bit of backstory from the LN’s: Rudeus was not a good person in his past life. He was severely bullied & abused, pushed everyone away, then drowned his sorrows in porn, food, erotic games etc…. he was emotionally stunted at like 14 which is why he has such weird, sometimes appalling ideas of sexuality, because as far as he’s concerned it’s primal, only for pleasure without regard to the woman involved. That’s why in order to enjoy the series, you have to be willing to meet that idea halfway and be willing to engage with the idea that Rudeus is growing. By the end of it all you wouldn’t recognize him lol Also Linia & Pursena were not good people either though that doesn’t excuse his actions. They bullied, blackmailed and harassed many, MANY, of the students, even attempted to do the same with Ariel, Fitz, and Luke. Rudeus had a short temper with them because he HATES bullying. Remember in S1, he was attacked, stripped naked, then tied to the gates of his school in his past life. So when he caught wind of Linia & Pursena bullying his friends AND disrespecting Roxy, who he holds very very dear to his heart, he was ready to wage war. If I recall correctly he didn’t intend to starve them or anything that just sort of happened lol.
If she thinks Rudeus keeping Roxy’s panties in a box as a shrine is bad, she’s gonna shit when she finds out what he keeps of Sylphie’s 😭😭😭 Show didn’t do too well showing a shift in power dynamic either. Linia and Pursena ran roughshod over the university till Fitz came along and even then some people weren’t really safe from their shit. May not have been pretty but Rudeus did them a favor with this humbling.
17:00 I think when Rudy says that "there would have been no turning back" he means that he fears he would have fallen for Fitz-san/senpai and would start batting for the other team. I imagine that he will be quite relieved when he realized that he is not having feelings for another man. He is quite confused right now.
-pee on them to assert dominance- Have them pee themselves to assert dominance I kinda remember Rudeus spent all day hanging out with Silphy, and forgot about the beast girls, thats why they were so wilted Beastmen are big on hierarchy, social status and tradition, thats why Linia and Pursena went around beating every student to establish their position, and accepted Rudeus as their boss after being defeated
I think the glasses thing is she’s afraid he won’t recognize her even after taking them off. She easily recognized him and based on what Luke said earlier in the season Sylph was at least a little upset he didn’t recognize her at the duel.
I made a few comments in the past about your volume being low. The new microphone is much better! I can hear you properly without needing to adjust my entire computer's volume.
I get really sick and tired of the whole ‘Rudeus is and forever will be flawed / a pervert / a bad person’ broken record garbage. It’s like people insist on keeping things dirty once they’re stained or something, despite all efforts to make it clean again. We live in a world of grey, where black and white only exists as a formality, a face, a facade, a farce, to hide the complicated ugliness underneath it, and to deny that is the greatest lie and self-delusion anyone in this world can subject THEMSELVES to. That, and *all humans are perverts, no exceptions.* The only thing that differentiates people from one another in that regard is how readily and thoughtlessly they act upon their desires, or not. To deny this very fact is peak hypocrisy. Finally, this whole ‘projecting our world’s and your morals into a fictional world and characters’ BS really needs to stop. It not only takes away the enjoyment of a great story being told, but sours up the experience, especially in this grand story about one’s journey towards *self-redemption* . People seem to really airball miss that point of this story so much that it’s just mind boggling. Rant over, that being said, while I don’t agree with some of Rudeus’s actions and choices, I would not be so self-deluded to go and blame the poor guy who never knew any better because his past life’s society and circumstances have failed him so terribly. And quite frankly, he could have been way, way WAY worse of a person than he is now - just think of Keyaru from Redo of Healer. Imagine that guy being the main character of this story…. Yeah. That guy’s focus on revenge inflicted tunnel vision so severe that he just isn’t realistic, and that is my only gripe with that series. But that being said, with the context of the story of MT, I not only like Rudeus as a character, I’d also find myself cheering for the guy as he takes his steps forward to improve himself as a person, despite the issues and difficulties he deals with. And quite frankly, many of us in this world sure could use such a similar journey of self-redemption.
If you understand his instable psychological state, his trauma of the first and second life and his type of depression it isnt really that questionable
Sylphie: Omg, I can’t stop thinking about Rudy… Rudeus: I love to talk with you to Fitz. Anyway, I have two girls locked in my room so… Sylphie: BROOO, WTFFF 🫠
Zanoba and Julie doing a great job instilling fear into the 2 beast girls hahahhaa Without them they would have probably just thought that Rudy is a pervert. Instead they understood he is a pervert and a psychopath
If I remember correctly, Rudeus's reason for groping Pursena was to see if his problem would be solved if he embraced it from the sadistic side, when he saw that it wasn't, he simply gave up. That it is still questionable but by not going any further I don't see it as serious since those two are unfortunate wretches who will later return that little kidnapping in one way or another XD
@@raec5426 I don't remember that if I'm honest (I'm a WN reader, I don't know much about the LN) but with Rinia and Pursena it's very difficult to happen.
@teisuken Well yeah, he has the ED issues, so the arousal isn't there. Though they were tied up, so if the interest was there, idk... Just heard that thought was in there.
No need to be insecure. There's a reason why there's a Dee-esser in editing programs by default. Some mics just pick up certain sounds more sharply. Looked it up and its called sibilance. It sounds good so I don't think you need to do anything, but if you feel like you have to then you need to look how to reduce sibilance.
yo I dont know why ppl have to make fun of the panties like sure its creepy but like its one of if not the most important thing rudeus have so like the term "a mans trash is another mans treasures". Then the part where he touches the boobs, I wont say that theres no impure thoughts but it was more experimental than it was impure to say. And to say that you can only touch it that way is not right like for example, a doctor thats a man has to touch a woman breats to figure out what illness the woman have doesnt mean he doenst have impure thoughts but he def is leaning more on finding out the illness (dont know for what illness requires it as im not a doctor and also that she should go to a female doctor but humor me for this). Im not trying to justify his actions or anything but cmon try to be a little understanding, like the fact that he would try pretty much anything to fix his "problem" as would any man in this situation.
0:15 Thank you. I really appreciate it so much when reactors, or just youtubers in general try their best to have good quality audio on their mic, as especially headset users like me can really hear small details in the audio and if the audio quality is bad, it can hurt our ears. So i really appreciate your effort, and your audio does sound better.
De-essing is hard because you don't want to catch f's or th's when you cut down on s's. Its a balancing act that even audio professionals need to take time to work with.
It’s a little badly worded in the translation, but when Rudy talked how Zanoba sees Juliette he meant more like „Imouto“, which translates to „little sister“.
Depending on the way people are listening, certain headphones or whatever, it can be grating. When I had to record something I had a similar problem, and I'm definitely not a pro. I just plugged my audio file into Audacity and applied a compression filter, and maybe a low pass with a very high cutoff but I don't remember exactly, it helped a lot. That said, I find your audio pretty good so don't worry!
I am just listening to the last 3 episodes like a podcast and God damn the mic is better. But it's not something you have to worry about too much, i found no issues with the previous mic anyway. Holy shit, the intro😂. I am not an audiophile and I am listening through relatively cheap earphones. So maybe others don't agree with me, but i thought it sounded great.
knowing that rudy is still afraid of girls and still cant get it up, we know he's catching feels for fitz rn when he said "i do" about removing the glasses, it was way to intimate. He's already questioning himself about he's feelings for fitz/sylph and how he knows his ed will be cured by looking into teleportation with fitz/sylph.
Well this episode and previous episode reminded me the first time rudeus and sylphie met. He thought her as guy then as well until a rainday he stripped her and he got punished for that because it's harassment. Rudy mom recognised her as girl instantly though. Anyways this just repeat of that kind of reminding those episodes
rudy starts to find out in the school how op he actually is. for most of his life hes been surrounded and taught by exceptional people. now hes with the normies as a hardened s ranked adventurer(at least i think hes s rank now).
I have the feeling you dont get the character and his psychological evolution of „Rudeus greyrat“ because if you would, you should understand why he acts like he acts, without judging him like that.
For some context and lore, no spoilers I woudn't fell to bad for those furry girls. They where the leaders of a gang that went arrownd intimidating asaulting and harrasing people. Until they messes with Ariel and Sylphie put them in their place. The rest of the gang got expeled but they where princesses so got to stay. They toke their frustrations on Zanoba and Cliff. After that fight with Rudeus they got away easy. Zanoba wanted to dismember them like they did to the figure, if the rolls where reverse Linya and Pursena woud have beat them to a pulp and turn them into slaves. And if they woud have done that to Eris they woudn't even be hear to tell the tale. Tho Im curious about the rumors of why Rinia and pursena disapear for a day and now are moving their tail to the new student calling him boss and acting al sumisive. There must be some wild theories about what happend in that dorm. 😂 I fell bad for Jully she must habe been scard for liffe
i do hope they at least have an episode that just explains why sylphy doesnt reveal because it is explained in ln however im excited for the next couple of eps as theres gonna be a lot of interesting things happening
As someone with a lisp I completely understand your worries in the intro, but tbh it doesn't sound like much of a lisp at all to me. Just the mic picking up the harsh 's' sound too much. It's most likely just the mic being a bit too close or angled weirdly. Apparently tilting the mic down a bit can sometimes help prevent sibilance, and if you can't find a good position that solves the issue, I've heard that de-essers can help during editing, but I have no experience with them myself.
I did download a plug in for it. I recorded a test clip for it actually. Have a listen and lmk if you think it’s sounds ok. www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/ueidq4952ieql92dysqyy/2023-08-21-21-25-28.mp4?rlkey=e5euibrhhfguiai1c8oy2nxat&dl=0
@@Awake_Productions It sounds good to me. Perhaps a bit quiet. There definitely is less sibilance, but I'm not sure if that would crop back up at higher volumes. I wish I knew more to be able to help with this but I've never done any sound mixing, just surface level googling on some sound related issues me or a friend have had with mics :( Also, for the record, I personally don't have any issue with the audio in this video. Imo the s's are at most minorly stressed, but not at a level where it is really noticeable and definitely not distracting.
Ah god i look forward to these reactions every week, how she keeps hating on rudy for no reason and trying to say things to make him look bad, its so enojyable for some reason
i wont defend everything rudi dose in this episode but i will say if some one took your holly sciprtucr or simble of your deity and destroyed it while mocking your god... when the people doing the destroying sentences you to being striped and hung in a cage in the midle of the village then to DEATH for touching there sacred beast (yes they were going to kill rudi after he gave up the locatin of the kids) id say everything but the boob grab was generous (rudi by there own law had the right to kill both of them and they knew it )
Emotions this ep: 🥰 Sylphieeee! 🥺Julieee 😨the roxy fig. 😤Rudy & Zanoba vs the Doldia sisters 🗿Rudy-- NO 9/10 ep Sylph and Julie were adorable, fight scene and the context behind it was great. Julies little actions in every scene were S-Tier adorable and must protecc. Rudy just no- I know you were just checking something but naaaaaah, there are other ways x_x.
I get the feeling that being in the school is reverting Rudeus' character towards the creepy side. Maybe the memories from being bullied in his past live are making him do even more extreme things each time. This is bad for him.
Also, about the gooping scene, I think he does that only because the ManGod told him he would be cured in this academy, and so Rudeus tries every opportunity.
@@RFG910 but also his overall actitude... Not only he's getting cocky, but he even kidnapped 2 people and let them tied (reminiscent of what he suffered when he was bullied... is this arc he becoming the bully?). That has nothing to do with his ED; meaning that even if his ED gets cured, his worsening attitude would continue to be a problem. ...or maybe this is only a fit of rage because of the broken figurine, and doesn't happen again. We shall see in the next episodes.
@@carlosgt4827 I doubt his attitude is his problem he had a reason to be angry he quite literally sees roxy as a goddess and she is his religion the beast people were mad about the dog that rudeus touched and he got imprisoned now they did something similar and he felt disrespected of course he didn’t have to SA them but that’s part of his flaw as a character we have known how depraved rudeus was from the beginning and it’s something he will work hard on to get rid of also he didn’t even consider it a punishment meaning that wasn’t even his intention in the beginning he just chose to do it at the moment to see if his ED would get any better. I genuinely believe he was angry about the figurine like you mentioned he felt angry saddened possibly offended at the moment so I wouldn’t really doubt that his choices were mostly for the Roxy figure
The one thing I'd change about this anime is I'd just remove the reincarnation aspect. Young naive kid going through puberty, not understanding boundaries? K, he's flawed, but naive because of immaturity and still growing, got it. Middle aged man doing these things? He knows better, even as a shut in. Hate it, hate it so much. People will argue it's necessary backstory for his character, being a bullied shut in, but there are other ways to accomplish that without him being a middle aged man. Just make him a bulled shut in as a kid who gets absorbed in books and magic due to his isolation and you've created the same scenario. If you must make him reincarnated, make him reincarnated from a boy who died too young, was a shut up who was bullied, and played lots of RPGs. It's really the middle aged aspect that makes this so hard to watch compared to what would otherwise be discomfort but understandable. All that being said, the general story being told is fabulous and I'm hooked, so I'll slog through the parts I don't like. The good far out weighs the bad and I just hope he continues to have character growth. One of the things I tell myself is despite having memories of his past life he is still in the body of a boy going through puberty, and those hormones would certainly effect him and his decision making.
@@AmaruMendez167 Not sure what you mean by still... At any rate, yes, the idea of a middle aged man groping a teenager who clearly doesn't want them to do so is weird to me. I don't know how old you are, but I am indeed a middle aged man, and projecting myself in to that situation is very uncomfortable. If it isn't something I'd do, it's tough to approve of the protagonist doing it.
@@shadowx8145 In Game of Thrones Jamie Lannister is seen as gross and despicable for engaging in incest and harming children. He has a story arc that redeems him and people come around to like him. That doesn't mean people have to be comfortable with the incest early on. Why is everyone so insistent that because a character grows later that they have to be in to the stuff they are doing now? Why would anyone feel stupid for disapproving of someones actions now and approving of their actions later while still condemning their earlier actions? The dumb thing is to forgive people for every bad thing they ever did just because they have some sort of redemption. That being said, I'd still go lighter on the borderline pedo content because there isn't really any repercussions for it. That's my main issue, unless everyone is going to found out he's actually a middle aged man inside a childs body, he will never face any repercussions or judgements for what would otherwise be considered pedophilia. It's a weird morally gray area due to him being a child, while having the mentality of a middle aged man. It's tough to accurately judge due to it being an impossible scenario no one will ever be in and feeling uncomfortable with it is reasonable. I assure you, no one will feel stupid in the end no matter how sure you are.
@@AnActualDuck If it helps then rudeus does tell sylphy, roxy and eris about him being reincarnated and guess what they actually have no problem with it. The thing is it's hard for people to accept that this is rudy's new life as he literally dies with his previous body and was reborn. Now reincarnation is more of a cultural aspect even I believe we reincarnate each and every time after our death which is not limited to a human being minus the whole previous life memory but sometimes it's hard for people to not act like as if he has stolen someone's body to gain advantage even though it's his very own body now just because he remembers his past life but that doesn't mean his physical age wouldn't matter. Either way rudy throughout the series has only been attracted to girls of his own physical age as it's a weird mix of having a growing body that's feeling attraction and having a past history of porn addiction. Of course it's a grey area but regarding such cases I believe that a person's own personal morality should rather matter the most.
@@madhursaxena2645 This is an excellent and well thought out response, thank you for taking the time. It actually does help a lot and makes sense to me, so I appreciate it!
seeing rudeus go back to being a sexual harasser again disappointed me so much man, I thought he was better than this by now, that he had developed, but no. Even Sylphie didn't seem to care, as long as he didn't touch them "like that", I really disliked most of this episode
no worry, this is the last sexual harassment if i remember correctly. after "something" happen, then he will finally grow. so no "back" actually, he was always like this.
Yeah the changes are kind of slow here. But it's there. He went from being willing to harass pretty much everyone. To only really doing it to enemies of himself. As for Sylphie not caring culturally speaking Rudeus could get away with a lot of shit and Sylphie was born into that society. So from most people in the settings viewpoint Rudeus only giving a single grope is being extremely merciful.
yeah, it was disturbing how casual everyone acted about it too, it makes sense for Zanoba to not really care, but Sylphie only caring if he touched them "like that" was stupid
Dude do you even follow the plot? She is in debt to that princess and she knows who Rudeus is. They were closer before then now. Its not about being a girl. They know each other and have a past.
From Linia and Pursena's perspective, they got off easy. Linia herself was talking about stripping Rudeus naked and throwing water on him earlier in the episode.

They apparently skipped a lot of the crazy and cruel bullying that the Doldia girls did to the other students. Also the bullying of Zanoba.
It's a shame because it makes the punishment look unjustified. They're spoiled brats who were sent to that school as a way to reform them but their statuses as princesses, only made it worse. They needed to be knocked down a peg, Gustav and Gyes would actually be grateful for this behavior shift.
I remember reading this in the light novel, I honestly thought they would've cut this scene, particularly the urination and underwear moment😂😂
Same lol, i remember feeling so guilty that i was enjoying reading that shit
They wouldnt dare, thats Rudy's original spell "Steam Dry". Studio Bind would be damned if they cut that out.

@@InstanRamenI'm pretty sure Orsted can do it too.
Juliette is super cute this ep. Her trying to sneak away from angry Rudy was precious
Rudeus seriously worships Roxy as a goddess (like a devout Christian). Especially in these years since he has been alone, he has been living with a broken heart and clinging to the presence of Roxy, and now you could say that he is a fanatic.
His crazy behaviors this time are because he is mad with rage over the fact that his goddesses were defiled by them.
Of course his behavior is wrong, as he regrets after he has cooled down, but I just wanted to tell you that there is no sexual agenda at all.
As for the Roxy statue, it was originally clothed and was made to be removable, so when it was destroyed, the clothes came off.
Anyway, this is just a comedy episode, so I hope you don't take all the actions too seriously.
Last episode: "if that keeps you going then i won't shame you or fault you for it, survive."
This episode: "It is creepy you psychopath, you and your pervy tendencies"
....Well which is it? 😂
this girl is so stupid srly-
9:34 That, was Rudy seeing with his eye of oracle that Pursena was about to use the same voice skill that paralyzed him back in the great forest incident, also being how they managed to defeat Zanoba before, so Rudy shot a hollow stone cannon to explode into sand and interrupt her. Once their trump card was done, the rest was easy.
A little bit of backstory from the LN’s:
Rudeus was not a good person in his past life. He was severely bullied & abused, pushed everyone away, then drowned his sorrows in porn, food, erotic games etc…. he was emotionally stunted at like 14 which is why he has such weird, sometimes appalling ideas of sexuality, because as far as he’s concerned it’s primal, only for pleasure without regard to the woman involved. That’s why in order to enjoy the series, you have to be willing to meet that idea halfway and be willing to engage with the idea that Rudeus is growing. By the end of it all you wouldn’t recognize him lol
Also Linia & Pursena were not good people either though that doesn’t excuse his actions. They bullied, blackmailed and harassed many, MANY, of the students, even attempted to do the same with Ariel, Fitz, and Luke. Rudeus had a short temper with them because he HATES bullying. Remember in S1, he was attacked, stripped naked, then tied to the gates of his school in his past life. So when he caught wind of Linia & Pursena bullying his friends AND disrespecting Roxy, who he holds very very dear to his heart, he was ready to wage war. If I recall correctly he didn’t intend to starve them or anything that just sort of happened lol.
If she thinks Rudeus keeping Roxy’s panties in a box as a shrine is bad, she’s gonna shit when she finds out what he keeps of Sylphie’s 😭😭😭
Show didn’t do too well showing a shift in power dynamic either. Linia and Pursena ran roughshod over the university till Fitz came along and even then some people weren’t really safe from their shit. May not have been pretty but Rudeus did them a favor with this humbling.
17:00 I think when Rudy says that "there would have been no turning back" he means that he fears he would have fallen for Fitz-san/senpai and would start batting for the other team. I imagine that he will be quite relieved when he realized that he is not having feelings for another man. He is quite confused right now.
-pee on them to assert dominance-
Have them pee themselves to assert dominance
I kinda remember Rudeus spent all day hanging out with Silphy, and forgot about the beast girls, thats why they were so wilted
Beastmen are big on hierarchy, social status and tradition, thats why Linia and Pursena went around beating every student to establish their position, and accepted Rudeus as their boss after being defeated
17:20 I think what Sylphy is afraid of is having to make a decision to be with Rudy once he realizes who she is.
I think the glasses thing is she’s afraid he won’t recognize her even after taking them off. She easily recognized him and based on what Luke said earlier in the season Sylph was at least a little upset he didn’t recognize her at the duel.
I made a few comments in the past about your volume being low. The new microphone is much better! I can hear you properly without needing to adjust my entire computer's volume.
This episode really reminds us that Rudeus is still a flawed human who does questionable things
He still is until the end...
Yeah, but it's not like he didn't have a reason
I get really sick and tired of the whole ‘Rudeus is and forever will be flawed / a pervert / a bad person’ broken record garbage.
It’s like people insist on keeping things dirty once they’re stained or something, despite all efforts to make it clean again. We live in a world of grey, where black and white only exists as a formality, a face, a facade, a farce, to hide the complicated ugliness underneath it, and to deny that is the greatest lie and self-delusion anyone in this world can subject THEMSELVES to.
That, and *all humans are perverts, no exceptions.* The only thing that differentiates people from one another in that regard is how readily and thoughtlessly they act upon their desires, or not. To deny this very fact is peak hypocrisy.
Finally, this whole ‘projecting our world’s and your morals into a fictional world and characters’ BS really needs to stop. It not only takes away the enjoyment of a great story being told, but sours up the experience, especially in this grand story about one’s journey towards *self-redemption* . People seem to really airball miss that point of this story so much that it’s just mind boggling.
Rant over, that being said, while I don’t agree with some of Rudeus’s actions and choices, I would not be so self-deluded to go and blame the poor guy who never knew any better because his past life’s society and circumstances have failed him so terribly.
And quite frankly, he could have been way, way WAY worse of a person than he is now - just think of Keyaru from Redo of Healer. Imagine that guy being the main character of this story…. Yeah. That guy’s focus on revenge inflicted tunnel vision so severe that he just isn’t realistic, and that is my only gripe with that series.
But that being said, with the context of the story of MT, I not only like Rudeus as a character, I’d also find myself cheering for the guy as he takes his steps forward to improve himself as a person, despite the issues and difficulties he deals with. And quite frankly, many of us in this world sure could use such a similar journey of self-redemption.
If you understand his instable psychological state, his trauma of the first and second life and his type of depression it isnt really that questionable
@@aokiji2168 trauma does not excuse bad behaviour, if it did, most serial killers would be free.
Sylphie: Omg, I can’t stop thinking about Rudy…
Rudeus: I love to talk with you to Fitz. Anyway, I have two girls locked in my room so…
Sylphie: BROOO, WTFFF 🫠
Zanoba and Julie doing a great job instilling fear into the 2 beast girls hahahhaa
Without them they would have probably just thought that Rudy is a pervert. Instead they understood he is a pervert and a psychopath
If I remember correctly, Rudeus's reason for groping Pursena was to see if his problem would be solved if he embraced it from the sadistic side, when he saw that it wasn't, he simply gave up. That it is still questionable but by not going any further I don't see it as serious since those two are unfortunate wretches who will later return that little kidnapping in one way or another XD
I heard in the LN that if he didn't have ED issues had thought that he might have went further with the girls...
@@raec5426 I don't remember that if I'm honest (I'm a WN reader, I don't know much about the LN) but with Rinia and Pursena it's very difficult to happen.
@teisuken Well yeah, he has the ED issues, so the arousal isn't there. Though they were tied up, so if the interest was there, idk... Just heard that thought was in there.
@@shadowx8145 Well I heard that from source readers themselves though as fans of the series.
No need to be insecure. There's a reason why there's a Dee-esser in editing programs by default. Some mics just pick up certain sounds more sharply. Looked it up and its called sibilance. It sounds good so I don't think you need to do anything, but if you feel like you have to then you need to look how to reduce sibilance.
4:20 She sighs as she realizes what may be in her future if she does get together with Rudy.
yo I dont know why ppl have to make fun of the panties like sure its creepy but like its one of if not the most important thing rudeus have so like the term "a mans trash is another mans treasures". Then the part where he touches the boobs, I wont say that theres no impure thoughts but it was more experimental than it was impure to say. And to say that you can only touch it that way is not right like for example, a doctor thats a man has to touch a woman breats to figure out what illness the woman have doesnt mean he doenst have impure thoughts but he def is leaning more on finding out the illness (dont know for what illness requires it as im not a doctor and also that she should go to a female doctor but humor me for this). Im not trying to justify his actions or anything but cmon try to be a little understanding, like the fact that he would try pretty much anything to fix his "problem" as would any man in this situation.
0:15 Thank you. I really appreciate it so much when reactors, or just youtubers in general try their best to have good quality audio on their mic, as especially headset users like me can really hear small details in the audio and if the audio quality is bad, it can hurt our ears. So i really appreciate your effort, and your audio does sound better.
De-essing is hard because you don't want to catch f's or th's when you cut down on s's. Its a balancing act that even audio professionals need to take time to work with.
ngl this ep made me really uncomfortable, from the part where Rudy said "can you not even spreak proper human" 😓
It’s a little badly worded in the translation, but when Rudy talked how Zanoba sees Juliette he meant more like „Imouto“, which translates to „little sister“.
Depending on the way people are listening, certain headphones or whatever, it can be grating. When I had to record something I had a similar problem, and I'm definitely not a pro. I just plugged my audio file into Audacity and applied a compression filter, and maybe a low pass with a very high cutoff but I don't remember exactly, it helped a lot. That said, I find your audio pretty good so don't worry!
You can probably apply a "de-esser" filter to your voice. Try looking it up!
Those two beast girls were bullying the other students in the school before. So they needed a bit if their own medicine.
Lol funny episode, it's good enough Rudeus ask Sylphy help to punish them😂
I am just listening to the last 3 episodes like a podcast and God damn the mic is better. But it's not something you have to worry about too much, i found no issues with the previous mic anyway.
Holy shit, the intro😂. I am not an audiophile and I am listening through relatively cheap earphones. So maybe others don't agree with me, but i thought it sounded great.
knowing that rudy is still afraid of girls and still cant get it up, we know he's catching feels for fitz rn when he said "i do" about removing the glasses, it was way to intimate. He's already questioning himself about he's feelings for fitz/sylph and how he knows his ed will be cured by looking into teleportation with fitz/sylph.
I love the Overlord shirt, I want one aaaa
For what it's worth the audio sounds fine to me.
LOL 🤣 Rudeus will never change.
Well this episode and previous episode reminded me the first time rudeus and sylphie met. He thought her as guy then as well until a rainday he stripped her and he got punished for that because it's harassment. Rudy mom recognised her as girl instantly though. Anyways this just repeat of that kind of reminding those episodes
rudy starts to find out in the school how op he actually is. for most of his life hes been surrounded and taught by exceptional people. now hes with the normies as a hardened s ranked adventurer(at least i think hes s rank now).
Man I cannot wait to see the next ep, they will finally give elinalese some character development again!
RO-KI-SHIIII !!! RO-KI-SHIIII!!!! RO-KI-SHIII!!!!!!
That was too funny, especially Julie participating 😆
I have the feeling you dont get the character and his psychological evolution of „Rudeus greyrat“ because if you would, you should understand why he acts like he acts, without judging him like that.
8:18 I've heard dog training claim that dogs can smell human emotions like fear, anger, etc
For some context and lore, no spoilers
I woudn't fell to bad for those furry girls.
They where the leaders of a gang that went arrownd intimidating asaulting and harrasing people.
Until they messes with Ariel and Sylphie put them in their place.
The rest of the gang got expeled but they where princesses so got to stay.
They toke their frustrations on Zanoba and Cliff.
After that fight with Rudeus they got away easy.
Zanoba wanted to dismember them like they did to the figure, if the rolls where reverse Linya and Pursena woud have beat them to a pulp and turn them into slaves.
And if they woud have done that to Eris they woudn't even be hear to tell the tale.
Tho Im curious about the rumors of why Rinia and pursena disapear for a day and now are moving their tail to the new student calling him boss and acting al sumisive.
There must be some wild theories about what happend in that dorm. 😂
I fell bad for Jully she must habe been scard for liffe
i do hope they at least have an episode that just explains why sylphy doesnt reveal because it is explained in ln however im excited for the next couple of eps as theres gonna be a lot of interesting things happening
she said she's under orders
I would preferred if they focused more on rudy and sylphie romance than this type of things
17:33 i mean its happened to her in the past, and specifically by him lmao
This was a good episode. I think sylphy is just a little insecure about revealing the truth to rudeus, unless she's just not allowed to.
she's insecure. she thinks she's not womanly enough for Rudy
Rudeus is who he is, and the world is different than our own. Don't like his actions? Accept it or leave it be and not comment on it at all.
The mic is really gooooooood!!!!
Idk what the problem with the audio is, but I didn’t notice anything wrong, the audio was fine for me.
Trust me it is not a bother. To me you sound fine. Keep doing your thing, and we will continue to love it!
10:00 Why is a dog girl making a "Nya!!" sound?
As someone with a lisp I completely understand your worries in the intro, but tbh it doesn't sound like much of a lisp at all to me. Just the mic picking up the harsh 's' sound too much.
It's most likely just the mic being a bit too close or angled weirdly. Apparently tilting the mic down a bit can sometimes help prevent sibilance, and if you can't find a good position that solves the issue, I've heard that de-essers can help during editing, but I have no experience with them myself.
I did download a plug in for it. I recorded a test clip for it actually. Have a listen and lmk if you think it’s sounds ok. www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/ueidq4952ieql92dysqyy/2023-08-21-21-25-28.mp4?rlkey=e5euibrhhfguiai1c8oy2nxat&dl=0
@@Awake_Productions It sounds good to me. Perhaps a bit quiet. There definitely is less sibilance, but I'm not sure if that would crop back up at higher volumes.
I wish I knew more to be able to help with this but I've never done any sound mixing, just surface level googling on some sound related issues me or a friend have had with mics :(
Also, for the record, I personally don't have any issue with the audio in this video. Imo the s's are at most minorly stressed, but not at a level where it is really noticeable and definitely not distracting.
Ah god i look forward to these reactions every week, how she keeps hating on rudy for no reason and trying to say things to make him look bad, its so enojyable for some reason
lol for no reason? right
No Reason? 😂
No reason? 🤨
@@shadowx8145 Sure but stilll she has a reason saying shes just hating is naive imo
As pervy as he is, the religion is 100% real to him. It isn't just a fetish but doctrine
13:56 - Got me laughing with this one. 🤣
I think the new mic sounds better than the other one. I can understand you better.
I am not sure if it's karma. I see all of them are crazy, so what Rudeus is doing is nothing serious to me xd
Sylphie and Julie are def the cutest! Too bad Rudy has to be such a cringe weirdo all the time
Idk about audio, but you don't sound weird to me and I use headphones
All hail Rudy. He is the true lord.
i wont defend everything rudi dose in this episode but i will say if some one took your holly sciprtucr or simble of your deity and destroyed it while mocking your god... when the people doing the destroying sentences you to being striped and hung in a cage in the midle of the village then to DEATH for touching there sacred beast (yes they were going to kill rudi after he gave up the locatin of the kids) id say everything but the boob grab was generous (rudi by there own law had the right to kill both of them and they knew it )
First, please, clarify the proper name of this "DS" "filter" you have set up on your OBS, which you talk about at 0:47.
De-ess. It’s by techivation and it’s called T-De-Esser

🥰 Sylphieeee!
🥺Julieee
😨the roxy fig.
😤Rudy & Zanoba vs the Doldia sisters
🗿Rudy-- NO
9/10 ep
Sylph and Julie were adorable, fight scene and the context behind it was great. Julies little actions in every scene were S-Tier adorable and must protecc.
Rudy just no- I know you were just checking something but naaaaaah, there are other ways x_x.
I don’t know ven know this anime but felt like liking it😂
Waking up to AwakeProductions! 👍
It sounds better, it's honestly not a big deal
Typical cat and dog couple =)))
Fun video Lexis ✌️
Sylphie is too good for Rudy
I get the feeling that being in the school is reverting Rudeus' character towards the creepy side. Maybe the memories from being bullied in his past live are making him do even more extreme things each time. This is bad for him.
Also, about the gooping scene, I think he does that only because the ManGod told him he would be cured in this academy, and so Rudeus tries every opportunity.
Nah I wouldn’t worry too much once he gets his ED fixed I’m sure he’ll be more cautious with his actions so he doesn’t make the same mistake again
@@RFG910 but also his overall actitude... Not only he's getting cocky, but he even kidnapped 2 people and let them tied (reminiscent of what he suffered when he was bullied... is this arc he becoming the bully?). That has nothing to do with his ED; meaning that even if his ED gets cured, his worsening attitude would continue to be a problem.
...or maybe this is only a fit of rage because of the broken figurine, and doesn't happen again. We shall see in the next episodes.
@@carlosgt4827 I doubt his attitude is his problem he had a reason to be angry he quite literally sees roxy as a goddess and she is his religion the beast people were mad about the dog that rudeus touched and he got imprisoned now they did something similar and he felt disrespected of course he didn’t have to SA them but that’s part of his flaw as a character we have known how depraved rudeus was from the beginning and it’s something he will work hard on to get rid of also he didn’t even consider it a punishment meaning that wasn’t even his intention in the beginning he just chose to do it at the moment to see if his ED would get any better. I genuinely believe he was angry about the figurine like you mentioned he felt angry saddened possibly offended at the moment so I wouldn’t really doubt that his choices were mostly for the Roxy figure
@@shadowx8145 explain why
u gonna cry? why u watch this anime if u dont like it? "oh rudeus u psycho" omg why the fuckin normies watch anime this days...
The one thing I'd change about this anime is I'd just remove the reincarnation aspect. Young naive kid going through puberty, not understanding boundaries? K, he's flawed, but naive because of immaturity and still growing, got it. Middle aged man doing these things? He knows better, even as a shut in. Hate it, hate it so much. People will argue it's necessary backstory for his character, being a bullied shut in, but there are other ways to accomplish that without him being a middle aged man. Just make him a bulled shut in as a kid who gets absorbed in books and magic due to his isolation and you've created the same scenario. If you must make him reincarnated, make him reincarnated from a boy who died too young, was a shut up who was bullied, and played lots of RPGs. It's really the middle aged aspect that makes this so hard to watch compared to what would otherwise be discomfort but understandable.
All that being said, the general story being told is fabulous and I'm hooked, so I'll slog through the parts I don't like. The good far out weighs the bad and I just hope he continues to have character growth. One of the things I tell myself is despite having memories of his past life he is still in the body of a boy going through puberty, and those hormones would certainly effect him and his decision making.
@@AmaruMendez167 Not sure what you mean by still... At any rate, yes, the idea of a middle aged man groping a teenager who clearly doesn't want them to do so is weird to me. I don't know how old you are, but I am indeed a middle aged man, and projecting myself in to that situation is very uncomfortable. If it isn't something I'd do, it's tough to approve of the protagonist doing it.
@@shadowx8145 In Game of Thrones Jamie Lannister is seen as gross and despicable for engaging in incest and harming children. He has a story arc that redeems him and people come around to like him. That doesn't mean people have to be comfortable with the incest early on. Why is everyone so insistent that because a character grows later that they have to be in to the stuff they are doing now? Why would anyone feel stupid for disapproving of someones actions now and approving of their actions later while still condemning their earlier actions? The dumb thing is to forgive people for every bad thing they ever did just because they have some sort of redemption.
That being said, I'd still go lighter on the borderline pedo content because there isn't really any repercussions for it. That's my main issue, unless everyone is going to found out he's actually a middle aged man inside a childs body, he will never face any repercussions or judgements for what would otherwise be considered pedophilia. It's a weird morally gray area due to him being a child, while having the mentality of a middle aged man. It's tough to accurately judge due to it being an impossible scenario no one will ever be in and feeling uncomfortable with it is reasonable. I assure you, no one will feel stupid in the end no matter how sure you are.
@@AnActualDuck If it helps then rudeus does tell sylphy, roxy and eris about him being reincarnated and guess what they actually have no problem with it. The thing is it's hard for people to accept that this is rudy's new life as he literally dies with his previous body and was reborn. Now reincarnation is more of a cultural aspect even I believe we reincarnate each and every time after our death which is not limited to a human being minus the whole previous life memory but sometimes it's hard for people to not act like as if he has stolen someone's body to gain advantage even though it's his very own body now just because he remembers his past life but that doesn't mean his physical age wouldn't matter. Either way rudy throughout the series has only been attracted to girls of his own physical age as it's a weird mix of having a growing body that's feeling attraction and having a past history of porn addiction. Of course it's a grey area but regarding such cases I believe that a person's own personal morality should rather matter the most.
@@madhursaxena2645 This is an excellent and well thought out response, thank you for taking the time. It actually does help a lot and makes sense to me, so I appreciate it!

Ótimo Vídeo ❤🇧🇷
Linda ❤❤❤❤
seeing rudeus go back to being a sexual harasser again disappointed me so much man, I thought he was better than this by now, that he had developed, but no. Even Sylphie didn't seem to care, as long as he didn't touch them "like that", I really disliked most of this episode
Yeah, it was kinda played off... it is what it is I guess.
what do you mean "back"? hasn't he always been like this lol. What he needs is therapy there is no "development" without theraphy.
no worry, this is the last sexual harassment if i remember correctly. after "something" happen, then he will finally grow. so no "back" actually, he was always like this.
Yeah the changes are kind of slow here. But it's there. He went from being willing to harass pretty much everyone. To only really doing it to enemies of himself. As for Sylphie not caring culturally speaking Rudeus could get away with a lot of shit and Sylphie was born into that society. So from most people in the settings viewpoint Rudeus only giving a single grope is being extremely merciful.
🤡
Man, even I think Rudy went too far with these girls
Yeah, I think so...
yeah, it was disturbing how casual everyone acted about it too, it makes sense for Zanoba to not really care, but Sylphie only caring if he touched them "like that" was stupid
That was literally a sexual assault, you shouldn't react to this vile anime
Dude do you even follow the plot? She is in debt to that princess and she knows who Rudeus is. They were closer before then now. Its not about being a girl. They know each other and have a past.
9:33 what was she about to do?
