Comments

Harry

Im so glad you are watching this show luke, it only gets better and better as the show progresses.

XT 421

It gets rougher up ahead, but as you've been saying, try to keep an open mind. Remember, you shouldn't feel 100% ok with Rudeus - he's very flawed, but his "good" is equally real. Regardless, the show itself is EXTREMELY well put together, so I am glad you are watching it.

Suichoku

Whew he didn't stop watching on this episode, this was probably the hardest episode for me to watch on first watch through.. (haven't yet seen season 2).

If you recorded this right after yesterdays episode you might have seen these comments now from last episode's comments, but I'll say it here too just in case If you're thinking of the dangerous demon race, the superd, it was green hair and red gem on the forehead, not red hair, though the mixup is understandable on first watch.

J van Weerden

The salary was explained abit. He gets 2 silver pieces, they will pay for the enrollment into the university and he gets trained by Ghislaine, which would normally be very expansive

Kamil Butala

You deffinitely get acros silphiete while watching do not worry u dont :) there will be a lot of cheekieness but that is a part of it ...if you were to read manga you would be much more hatefull towards it or disliking it i would say ... but it is such a great story :) I cant wait for first turning point :) hope you could do a double episode !

Suichoku

Does it get rougher? I remember this episode being the worst offender. Might be personal things which is the worst. There is a lot of sus things ahead, but after episode 8 it got less sus imo (still very sus). Haven't seen season 2 so can't talk about that.

ArtKi

30:50 "He's going to be there for 5 years. does Sylphie know this?" (Picked this up from comments on other reaction videos) Yes. She was there when Rudy was "kidnapped". She wasn't on screen. Rudy's parents wanted her to see Rudy leave so she'd know he didn't abandon her. Slyphie was quite angry. She tried to cast battle magic and *kill* Paul during Paul and Rudy's fight. Zenith stopped her.

Orieng

I am enjoying this so much, you have no idea! :D Btw Luke, i think there is a little bit of Rudeus in you, since you think alike ;) just kidding, it just shows how good the writing for this anime is, that it often predict what you would think in the scenario :) So good!

ArtKi

It's the worst episode that *I* can remember. 7 is rough but that's more a problem of Rudy not understanding what Eris wanted. And Eris not explaining.

FinalMasterM

The reason the shop seller was keen on selling it to Rudy was that he was from the manor and for a reason you'll see in upcoming episodes as to why he suggested giving it to "your daddy".

Hinokaga

so far no spoilers you'll be season two mostly has whole different vibe

Hinokaga

i can wait for the for you to get to episode 8

Keith Merrington

@XT 421 - Nah, this is the worst episode (in terms of Rudy doing pervy things). The stuff he did here is totally non-consensual. He deserved to get his arse kicked by Eris. Great fun episode otherwise though.

Keith Merrington

Ghislaine is a great character. Yes, 5 years at 2 silver pieces per month is 120 silver pieces (maybe you need Rudy to give you a few math lessons :-) Glad you're enjoying the show.

Tamus Heath

Rudy mentions a Gold Piece (Asuran) is about 100,000 Yen; which is about $680 or £540. The Aphrodisiac was 10 pieces, so Eris bought him a random vial for several grand as a gift. Very "out of touch rich kid" of her

brotato 96

That's what. You can feel not okay with Rudeus's mindset but still like this show. Most haters dont seem to get this and say all sorts of things.

DeathAtNoon12

while the anime doesn't tell you this, time flies really fast, months could pass but you wouldn't know since it isn't explicitly said anywhere in the anime unlike the novel

Yami Youssouf

im enjoying really rewatching this with you

PolyLogiX Studio

That bottle was EXPENSIVE. One gold - $1000 / One Silver - $100 / One Large Copper - $10 / One Copper - $1 (Note this conversion is only for Asura Kingdom currency and values differ throughout the world/show)

XT 421

100% agree. I think episode 8 is worse, IIRC, but all the same, Rudy earns his punches and kicks.

FullHeart

oh man you loving the world - that world is gonna open up a lot soon and you're really gonna get to see it. Mushoku Tensei is all about that worldbuilding

Suichoku

It is sad that there are so many bad apples in comment section, since there are also fruitful discussions and especially comments to help you with your questions or what you missed (the tone on those can be a bit harsh, because people forget that different people remember different things, I have noticed that you pick up on things that I didn't even notice). Hopefully you don't have to disable comment section... since there is value to be lost too :(

JammySplosha

big booba wolf lady has a really complicated looking name but the pronouciation is very simple, its spelt Ghislaine but its pronounced "Gee-lane" all one word, i dont blame anyone who doesnt know it, its not a common name

Suichoku

That is a spoiler for anime watchers afaik. Haven't seen the OVA but I recall people saying that this is shown in it. Order of things can be a bit different in LN vs anime.

Muligan Shinzuo

I love that Mushoku is taking its build up more slowly, so we can get to know how the world works. I also like that there is no big "defeat the demon king"/"rescue the wolrd" plot rushed into the story like other animes tend to do. At this point we are just following this guy around in a whole new world and it is quite relaxing.

Taiga

No, i think Ghislaine knew what "Aphrodisiac" means, because she clearly seemed as if she knew that word. Maybe she didn't want to explain it herself, and wanted Rudeus to do that.

Solar

red hair isn't bad. it did say that green hair with a mark on their forehead is bad, which is why sylphie was getting bullied for her hair color

You just know after dropping that vial they had ants for years.

nikum

nope, that's not what happened and it's never shown in the anime. She got there after they had left, when they told her what happened she almost managed to kill Paul because of how angry she was.

ArtKi

Ah. That makes sense. I look forward to reading the LNs.

Renan Pelée de St Maurice

Just for reminder, It is green hair that are bad, Sylph is discriminated on because she has green hair.

Sebastian Stróż

With mushoku you just have to ignore the comment section, It's hard for the reactor but it is what it is. Too many people who cant handle actual adult story :shrug:

Frentzy

=.= luke if you read this, can you tell us which "comments" are you talking about? When I say that I mean which 'anime'. Are the comments on any anime or only on mushoku.

GTB

Yep, Mushoku Tensei is the kind of writting that takes its time developing its characters, unveiling its universe slowly so that it's well understood, and building its overall story. It's thanks to this that there will be moments of extreme intensity. At this point, you still have no real idea of what Mushoku Tensei is and the scope of the adventure...but next week that will begin to change.

виина

about red is bad: peolpe with green hair and red stone on their forehead is bad, not the red hair

Ian Campbell

Eris’ own character development is very interesting. Unlike Rudy, whom you get internal monologues, you have to learn how eris changes through rudeus’ eyes. This leads to some whiplash kinda, but it’s very intriguing.

Ian Campbell

Also Mushoku is the king of lead ups. Some of the stuff is obvious that there’ll be importance in the future, some of it is very subtle, the amount of payoff is actually insane.

ChosenAnimal

Yeah I agree slow burners r 10x better than fast paced anime’s. Makes every reveal so much more impactful and actually holds a memory in ur brain

Flutter0Shy

Yep, stuff takes times to like and a rarity the ones that makes you love it at the first take (episode, season, release). I would understand why people thinks My Little Pony G4 is for little girls if they just watched season 1, but there's literally 10 seasons for a reason lol. And yeah, Rudeus has a lot to grow as a person yet, and is really nice to see him getting punished when caught in act or when matures from each life lesson, showing real progression and the world where he lives in.

Flutter0Shy

I think there's a very far line between furry and just beastmen race, literally are like 85% human.

iAmMe

Green hair and a red stone on the forehead is bad, not red hair.

Ohms

Ah yes, the most deserving 1-2-3 knockout combination in anime history. I think past this point things became... slightly more tolerable for me at least.

Burezu

I remember how much I disliked Rudeus in the beginning and there are still moments up ahead where I really disliked his actions but more and more you can see him pull back on this behavior

Strang

Regarding the fast/slow approach, when you compare this to most other isekais, you'll need to keep in mind that this one was one of the first ones to popularize the genre in light novels. As such, there was no template to go by, and therefore it took it's time to set things up properly. In contrast, many of the ones that came after relied on the audience having read a bunch of previous isekais, and fast tracked things to get to their "unique" selling point. This sadly does not lead to great storytelling, and is one of the contributing factors for why there's a lot of trash isekais out there.

Robert Franklin

Take a note on who Laplace is. He'll be mentioned a few episodes later at an important point. But some reactors forget who he is.

Alfred Chow

ok i think a lot of people does not get this part, the sub title of Mushoku Tensei is "~Giving His Best When Transferred to Another World~" BUT at this point of Rudeus life, he still not giving his best yet due to him being an neet in his pervious life, he is treating life now like play a mmo rpg. And because he can do things other cannot and he family is wealthy enough, he feel like he is playing this game( living this life) in easy mode therefore he start picking all the "joke option" eg: when waking Eris up; option 1 : tapping her face to wake her up. option 2 : throwing water on her to wake her up. option 3 : doing stupid shit like trying to remove her underwear to wake up. It will still take a few Turning Point in Rudeus life to turn him into the guy who finally give his best.

Russell Gambardella

I’m glad you are enjoying the slow burn and meticulous world building, can’t wait for more!

BanTheUndead

I'm pretty sure when they said they didn't need the girl, it was sarcasm. It doesn't come across well in text. Another issue I saw was when Rudius said he didn't have any childhood friends and then immediately mentioned a childhood friend. That line was changed to something else in the dub.

Obscuremango

1 large gold asuran coin can last someone a year. Basically you are well off with it. The shop guy only tried to sell as he was from the manor. As they have a lot of money. Eris just likes being violent, it's the way she is. Ghislaine a sword king. There is very few people at the level of sword king in the world. For the rank above (emporor) there are only 5 known in the world in the style of the sword god. So having a sword king on your side is basically meaning no one will try to attack you. A sword king is obsessed with the sword so that's why they are great teachers, and why Paul was a bad teacher as he didn't have the obsession to use to be able to describe and explain how to actually do it, he just did it. Last episode the reason why they said they can do with only Rudy is because they planned to sell them as slaves to a certain high noble in asura who likes rich young nobles, he is scum, worse than Paul and rudy by far. It was cut from the anime as he wants Eris. So they would kidnap them and take them to him. The dark side of this world is deep and disturbing.

Paul

That scene is easily the worst of the show. He does learn from it though, thankfully. Only time he straight up assaults with no consent of any kind(unforgivable). Of course consent isn't really possible for a long time to come anyway.

Chrono 1002

Luke confirmed to be isekaid back Rudy after this episode, w

TheRealLoRider

The red-haired people being bad is wrong, the feared "superd" demons are people with green hair and a red ruby-like gem on their forehead, that's why when rudy first met sylphy he was scared for a moment at the green hair, but relaxed as he checked her forehead, so the red hair is just a normal trait, hope that helps.

BlekDimon

You should at some point react to the rest of the openings of monogatari series, be it only two the most popular ones or just the rest of them (in the second case, I think patreon only is fine).

John

Luke a pervert confirmed! The slow world building is one of my favorite aspects of Mushoku Tensei. Another show that does this well is Ascendance of a Bookwork. That show does not get the same love animation wise sadly, but the book series its based off of is my favorite book series of all time. Pure, amazing world building.

Connor Hennessy

At the current exchange rate, 1$ is roughly ¥145, so his 7 Gold (roughly ¥100,000 per gold) aphrodisiac was worth approximately $4,813.90. What I find funny about this is that no matter how you look at the situation, given their talk regarding what they're all paid, Eris was given WAY more for her allowance than she should have been.

Tatersalad666

It's my favorite light novel series as well. I have read quite a few of them, and it along with Spice and Wolf are by far the best written. The world building is so much more intricate than most other shows.

Nathan McCabe

You said you like slow-paced anime. I would like to recommend Ascendence of A Bookworm. It's an isekai where a woman got a job as a librarian and died when books or a bookshelf fell on her. She tries all kinds of things as a peasant to make books or read books.

Nathan McCabe

Please tell me where I can buy Ascendance of a Bookworm (AoB) in english! I would vary much like to read it. The anime comes out as slow as all popular anime. Too slow. And so I must read.

BlekDimon

I support all the reccs above about Ascendance of A Bookworm, hands down, it is my favourite isekai, I like it more than Re:Zero and Mushokou Tensei. It is a very well made series, however it is slice of life, so it's a bit different from all the anime you watched to this point.

Emilis2023

Regarding the economics you bring up, we're told in the previous episode 100 gold pieces would pay for more than 10 tuitions to the magic university. We don't know what school's cost relative to their standard of living here, but considering the world seems to operate kind of like a medieval society and even adults working in royal households like Ghislaine are illiterate, I'd assume higher education isn't cheep to come by. So safe to say 7 gold pieces for a bottle of tonic is probably a very expensive price and Eris (or rather Eris's grandfather) is loaded.

The GoDKing 27

YO THAT aphrodisiac will be needed in the future 👀

Zepher

Red hair in anime tends to signal that the character is headstrong and feisty, not necessarily bad.

GTB

Even if education isn't accessible to the lower classes, it's not "that" expensive either. You have to bear in mind that this is a world where many people have no use for education, or don't see the point. Eris is no exception. And Ghislaine is another example: it's not a question of money if she's only getting an education now. And yes, a gold coin has great value. Ghislaine earns 2 gold coins a month (room and board). She's a swordswoman of "Sword King" rank, which is very high and very rare in swordsmanship... and therefore highly valued.

higgins8000 .

He was referring to what Roxy told Rudeus a few episodes ago about green hair

FaT_ScRaN2001

Altered carbon is an example of season 1 being the best in the series.

BRUNO Marques

A great strength of MT is that there are many stories happening in the world and you get to see some of them through Rudeus story. Rudeus's story is only a part of the greater story of the world not the central most important event like many other stories, although it is important. Bookworm is also great at building it's world but i don't know if it will get adapted to completion unfortunately.

Some0neElse

since you keep asking this: Red hair usually means violent or tsundere... or in this case - both. (Tsundere meaning someone who is not true to their emotions)

josh

Green hair is the colour people have a big problem with in this world, its why sylfie got bullied as a kid. also the fine feathers make a fine bird comment he made, he was kind of giving her a mental back handed complement, 'dressed like that most people wouldn't realized how much a little tyrant you are' or something like that, he made a facing thinking about that and so she hit him.

syaimaral

I think it's the green hair that was the dangerous color because of a certain demon race's hair color. Right now Eris is kind of a violent brat. She shouts whenever she talks, it seems like her family spoils her. A couple details I forgot is that Eris is a cousin to Rudeus and that the greyrat family is nobility. Meaning fights over lineage among other familial matters. A weird thing I keep thinking is how Luke gets so distracted by big boobs that there have been times he has missed subtitles before. Idk man, I just treat it as normal or if I admire it, I give it a glance and go about my day. Can't say I've ever been bothered or distracted by those things. Am I the weird one or Luke? Just a question from my curiosity, not a personal attack.

Madlen Stauffer

your right, like everything comes back in the future. this studio was only created for this story, so they can take there time and take it slow. i heared that they want to adapt the whole story, im happy about that.

Guilherme Vergne

No spoillers here, just to remember what was already said previously. That was the deal: he teach Eris to get paid and teach Ghislaine to "pay" for his sword training. Plus the dangerous is the demon race which hair color is "Emerald Green" and has a "Red Jewell" at the forehead.

Guilherme Vergne

The university price is about 10 gold (less but near). At the previous episode, the kidnapers offered rudy 100 gold and said "it could pay for ten with some left over"

Toasterfinal5

Wasn’t too sure I would like this anime until like episode 4. Now, I’m glad I gave it a shot. I really enjoy the narration in the pov of his prior adult life. Makes it so sus & funny af in the most shounen way. 😆😉

slipstride

This show really does a great job at making complex characters cause while rudius clearly is too horny for his own good he also knows how to convey proper teaching to eris who is just a typical spoiled 9 year old and makes decisions to help her grow properly lucky the hornyness doesn't last for ever

Meh123

Green hair is the color of the Superdia race - a race of Demons hated due to events in the Laplace War. They all have Bright Green Hair with a Red emerald on their forehead.

Meh123

Correct, he gets paid separately - so the University payment will be given after 5 years. Here's a reference from the Currency in the Asura Kingdom(the kingdom they are currently in) Asura Gold Coin (100,000 yen = 1,000 USD) Asura Silver Coin (10,000 yen = 100 USD) Asura Large Copper Coin (1,000 yen = 10 USD) Asura Copper Coin = (100 yen = 1 USD) This is only a 'rough' outline - since prices are far different within that world for commodities. 1 Gold Coin can last an average family in a small village a year.

yuzu hibiki

To explain about the Greyrat thing(it is never explained in the anime, only in the novel around this chapter), Nobles of the family may try to cause a rebellion/coup in Rudeus name as their "Leader" if they knew of his prowess. To take over the family or what not , typical filthy noble stuff . Rudeus just doesn't have any talent with the sword, he does get better tho but is never above average. Magic is more his thing. As for why did the guy at the market place wanted to sell the aphrodisiac to rudeus, it's because he was well dressed in noble clothes and even told him that he was from the mansion. Greyrat are infamous for being perverts/womanizer and aphrodisiac are expensive. Just keep the info in the back of your mind about that potion. Many people mention about the hair color so i won't talk about it i'm glad you spoke up about the comment section even thou it's on patreon. Glad to know you are enjoying the show, and definitely looking forward to more

David Deschaintre

i think he mostly means people fighting over tbe sjow as its pretty divisive with the sexual topics and people get heated in the comments

Aliziel

I just love how he judge this anime fairly.. Tbh I also didn't like rudeus' predator personality but the show is just so captivating that sometimes I forget he's really an old man inside. 🙄Well if you just think he's just a kid with a really perverted bloodline then everything's cool, that's just how they are it's the Greyrats curse fault. 😎👍

Jay Burch

The Greyrat family are Nobility. Paul left that behind. Remember in a prior episode when Paul hit rudy before asking what he did wrong. Paul said he reverted to what his dad did and Rudy was telling him the same thing he would do that Paul did (Paul left n didn’t keep his house name, only Greyrat family name)

Jay Burch

This is a very bare-bones example of the money conversion. There are different nations but you get the idea for the area Rudy is in now. Copper coins 1$ Large copper coins 10$ Silver coins 100$ Gold coins 1000$

Yevaud06

Green hair, red jewel is bad

Wizardo Keebler

I mean yeah, alot of the stuff that rudeus does will be pretty bad in the early of the anime, he learns though. he matures.

Tom Boggess

the reason that the aphrodisiac salesman knew that rudy was a pervert is because everyone in the entire manor are perverts

Jerid Glasspoole

Rudy is the introduction to the world, the MC she has yet to be born.

mania man

if you like slower anime you need to wach overlord

Adam Juríček

(Luke do not read my comment....)why though. now I'm mad that I even read the comments :( bc I think I know who you mean. just write something that would explain stuff around the episode or the deeper lore. tho I had feeling that would be the case after last week but come on

Szadek96

You've got it backwards. It's not Rudeus that is bad at swordplay. He is actually well above average for this world. The problem is who we are measuring him against. We have only ever seen him compared to a handful of others. Eris is a significantly talented fighter and several years older, which gives her a significant size and strength advantage at their young age. Paul is a former S-Rank adventurer. Ghislaine was in that same party and is hailed as a "Sword King" which is a system following the same basic structure as the Magic system with "King" being the third highest rank and the top 2 ranks being mythical hero territory. "Sword King" would be comparable to MMA weightclass world champion in terms of how prestigious and contested that status is. Ghislaine is a BOSS. The kidnappers who Rudeus had severe difficulty against severely outnumbered him and were led by a "Sword Saint" who is only 1 step down that ranking. He was no slouch. Rudeus is not particularly gifted at swordplay, but he is by no means a pushover.

Szadek96

My understanding is that the 2 silver each month is spending money, and there is a separate rate/lump sum after 5 years that will cover the cost of Sylphiette going to the school. I could be wrong, but Rudeus does not seem to be scrimping to reduce his own living expenses.

Technosage

Jesus Christ, are you saying that The school is $10000 to attend (10 gold) That's f****** cheap.

RudeusGrey4t

"Am I some weird ass pervert kid!?" Someone clip that: that belongs in a meme somewhere.

HGK

I know that feeling whenever Rudy try something stupid.

Visoth

The kidnapper dude who threw his sword was actually Advanced rank in North God.

TheNDGhost

depends on the country and time, when I attended uni for 3 years about a decade ago in my country, it cost just under £10000. Since then, a government leadership change tripled the cost to the student but at the time this LN was written, that was well within an acceptable price range (excluding America that overcharges like crazy for education)

jdoggivjc

you can be ranks in any or all three styles. I believe Paul was at least advanced in all three sword styles... and being ranked in multiple styles will come into play in S3.
