Thanks for all the support throughout this series everyone!
Sorry for it being so late. The holiday season ended up leaving me with little time to make videos.
We're back on the grind now with Arifureta vids starting next week!
Again w video bro been watching since the beginning of 2019
Good looks😁 my current watchlist was barren
Edit:turns out I watched it. Just forgot the name 😞
Thank you my bro! A big hug from Lima-Peru
This is one of my favorite channels. I don't have the time to read the manga and novels for every good anime I watch so you fill in a ton of blanks I could never fill on my own. Thanks a lot and you introduce me to many good Isekai like Mushoku Tensei which I only heard about through your videos and I loved it. Keep being awesome and making awesome content my guy. 😁
no, thank YOU for being there for us, you are doing a great job, thanks again for all the great videos
The whole Eris incident can be summarized in one Joker quote :
"Very *POOR* choice of words."
>Has you as her birthday present
>Leaves a note saying "we don't match" without elaborating further
>Leaves

"Gamers" anyone?
@@Yprion damn..... Rudy was bad in bed 😢 😭
Rudy doesn't realize how important he is to the people in his life which in turns keeps him humble and is able to do things he physiologically could do in his previous life.
U mean couldn't do in his previous life
@@ognjenmaslo3333 most likely a typo
Yup
Season 2 gets wack when they’re in the academy. Turns into an annoying love fest. I like s1 cause it was gritty with the adventures
@@Reiyreiyreiy1 well the author decided to write his erectile dysfunction as a symbol of his self-confidence. It is "unique", despite being a weird, but honestly it is still justifiable. What is not justifiable, however, is the lack of purpose besides this, as in that it is a very weak arc in terms of writing for a segway.
The problem for Eris wasn't that she left, the problem was that she miscommunicated her reason for leaving... 😔
Well to be honest Rudeus is 40+ years old mentally (if you include his past life) and Eris is only 15 years old. If anything the misunderstanding is 50-50 fault, if not more on the side of Rudeus who should have realised it that Eris had difficulty communicating.
You have an MC with massive ptsd issues that finally feels love and Eris just leaves the dumbest dear John letter ever.
@@Desi_Nehra
No Rudeus is max 13 mentally! That’s what people don’t understand. His mental development stopped as he started living seclusive life. He had never developed any communication abilities needed for a grownup to function in society. He hasn’t talked to people for 20 years! Before he died he was a literal “manchild”!
Gave bro ED and all
@@Desi_Nehra Dude was a 30 year old school dropout and shut-in in his previous life. You need to lower your expectations because socializing is not a shut-in's specialty.
The way the anime portrayed it with Zenith saying "I love you" which makes Rudy go "I have to go" even though he's hurting plus the ending music was absolutely beautiful to me!
It really gave me vibes of Simon from Gurren Lagan. The end credits of the second part of the series showing Simon moving forward. Simon lost a lot of important people in his life but continues to move no matter what. The pain and love are there but that’s a part of him now. Such an inspiring image
So even nicer in the LN the line Zenith says is, "I'm happy you were born."
@@crthejediknightninja damn that’s gold
Yes, this is the one scene that in my opinion the anime did better. In the offical novel, it just made it seem like he decided to get up and go randomly. Or maybe I missed something idk. But putting that chapter with zenith and him deciding to go probably made it my favorite scene in the anime so far
@@crthejediknightninja but that wasn't used during this scene in the LN, that was just said way earlier in the story. The anime did this part way better, in the LN and manga it seemed like Rudy just randomly got up and went, no problem. vs Showing all the turmoil and pain going on inside of him like the anime showed here
Rudy's own self-hatred that he doesn't just see his impact on other people and yet he still tries reminds me so much of Oldboy's quote, "Even if I'm no better than a monster, don't I still have the right to happily live?"
“Even if I’m no better than a monster, don’t I still have the right to live happily?”
@@SomeKindaShortsChannel depends on what is meant by monster
I was under the impression that after they fought Orsted & lost badly, she left to get stronger, but realized she couldn't get stronger if she stayed with Rudeus, since she'd always feel like she'd be trapped in Rudeus's shadow.🤷🏿♂️
/// potential spoiler below
that's how i remember the light novel too, that the reason she went to train and become a sword god (or whatever that kind og thing was called) was because she couldn't match rudeus and belived doing that would have her improve at a faster rate
There we go
That was stupid because she was a swordsman type while he was just a mage. Regardless, the story doesn’t follow her much at all from this point. She just comes back all strong and saves Rudy from that whatever monster at the end, then they just get married and she’s just another wife. It sucks. We get little more than a summary of 2 decades of how she became the strongest bad ass in some clan devoted to sword fighting. The demon tutor girl doesn’t even show up in for another few arcs and it’s just time with boring academy friends and the half elf girl. Even the other Japanese reincarnated teen at the academy is boring as hell.
@@pillbox1240 surprised you even got that far into the series if you seem to dislike it so much 😂
@@pillbox1240 We might still get that as a side story, the author is still actively writing stories for this universe.
Man, it's gonna be a long winter till we get news for a season 2, hopefully the animation team gets some rest till they work on the Eris ova.
Season 2 is in 2023, I’m hyped.
And now we wait for Season 2 part 2.
It’s here, Season 2 part 2 is just beyond the horizon.

Can't wait for S2
I'm on the last 2 web novels. it makes me sad that I'm about to finish the story 😢
There might not be a season 2. Only an OVA has been confirmed, which is Eris meeting cliff.
@@jossland1628 Errm I don't think so bro. Mushuko Tensei is definitily too popular for the studio to not make a season 2, it would litterally be a waste. Yes season 2 is not confirmed but there's no way they would igrone how popular the anime is
@@Destryer2 also *cough* lets not forget that studio bind was created for the sole purpose of adapting mushoku tensei *cough cough*
@@jossland1628 BIND studio is made only for the mushoku tensei series, they plan to adapt the series until the end
I was so happy to see Rudy pick himself up. No one had to push him. No one had to lecture him. He didn't get thrown out. He got up, and started moving forward largely on his own.
And then he meets Counter Arrow and Sara...
Nope he didn't, he literally become a FKING depress, never have a shining smile like before but a Paul look with a FKING Emo Op mage with a freaking PTSD and his D*** didn't even work anymore cuz of the shock he received from Eris, Eris with her ignorant literally Ruined Rudy life for years until a certain someone save him from depression
@@wakatsuki4563 You know your statement is only from the perspective of the very dense Rudeus. Ruijerd explains the whole situation best despite knowing the least.
@@robbieaulia6462 Well everyone can think whatever they want
@@robbieaulia6462 I mean, it's not entirely wrong that the poorly written note of Eris resulted in Rudeus taking it the way you'd expect someone with severe self confidence issues would.
Rudy gets up to go back to his duty to search for Zenith was badass. His fears once again gripped his soul. Being abandoned knocked him down, but his duty got him up off his ass. Ma boi is now a man.
Spoiler :
To bad his "son" couldn't do the same.
If anyone here really liked the show, I urge you to read the light novels. The detail in them is fantastic and the continuation of the story is captivating. I read Vols 6-14 in a week and had a hard time putting them down!
how many volumes did the anime cover? I am thinking of reading light novel where anime ended.
@@curiosityzero2151 season one covered volumes 1-6 of the light novel. If you wanna start right where the anime left off, start with volume 7!
@@denniskoback thanks man
@@denniskoback how about manga, which volume should i read after the last chp of manga
@@raynaldisiahaan7460 i don’t know much about the mange since it’s the furthest thing from the source material. But are you asking where the manga starts after S1?
Man this episode had a lot of good moments. The one that got me was when Paul met up with Aisha and Lilia. We saw how devastated he was without them, but seeing him do what Rudeus taught him, to bend down with your arms open to embrace a kid you haven't seen in years is the highlight for me.
Oh, wow. I didn't catch that.
Yeah, wow, that's a small detail I missed too. Love it! Well caught!
Wow...
Okay now I’m crying on my way to work 😭
In his previous life he was all alone, and now Eris left and again he's back all alone .
Regardless of her intentions she should have talked about it before leaving coss now he only thinks he's the one who was wrong.
Men are simple creatures sometimes just telling us why is enough.
Yeah... but girls are also creatures that expect men to read the mood and get the why themselves instead of straight speaking out. It's a difficult world.
@@ybenax and that's just stupid!!😂😂
'cuz humans makes stupid decisions in emotional moments regardless their gender!!!!
No offence on any girl(I'm also a girl,btw😂😂✌️)
Eris is not just good words and also if you read the novel she thought so highly of Rudeus, she thought he will understand by just reading it and also she's not good in writing too. Also Eris doesn't know what Rudeus past life is, it was an unfortunate and really a "Big Misunderstanding" part for both of them.
Ps: SPOILER !!!!
Later on Eris will know how devastated Rudeus at that time when she left and felt really sorry, also Eris told to Rudeus she will never leave Rudeus ever again or atleast she will let Rudeus knew were she going.
@@goatjo6802 I'm not that far in, but what did she think about Rudeus and Sylph?
@@panther7584 what she thought Spoilers
She was fine with it because rudy had send a letter to explain before they reunited.
The thing that got me about Eris’ inner monologue about Rudy was her thinking “His hands are so small and soft. Especially compared to mine.” Like that was how the switch flipped for her like “Oh… I’ve been taking advantage of someone younger than me. /I/ should have been protecting /him/. He’s smaller than me.”
But then she took advantage physically and used him to drown her grief about her family being dead. So much not ok with how she did that and why she did that, let alone doing it at all.
"Took advantage" is a matter of perspective here. He's way older than her from his perspective, but he's socially quite stunted and from the outside perspective a young creep. They both had power over the other before the Disaster (tutor and employer), then it shifted to depending on each other to survive the Disaster. They're also from branches of the same family. Sleeping together is all kinds of messed up from both of them, but expected in a world like theirs.
And she had them wait until they were back, quest completed, returned home, before she gave in (to herself and to him). This was the best opportunity for it to happen, even if it's morally icky from a modern point of view.
@@LibertyMonk No shit Sherlock. Its literally Eris' thoughts. She doesnt know Rudeus is a reincarnated adult because he lets no one know. We're discussing Eris' motivations, not the fucking morality of it....
@@tolerdanuyou can disagree with that, after all your comment is basically eris's own thought after she had done the deed and realized how small rudeus hands are compared to hers. It's also what compelled her to left rudy immediately instead of telling him her plan and insecurities which left rudy in shambles.
But, eris has always thought of rudy as someone reliable who is always out of her reach and she yearns to stand by his side as an equal. She want to be useful to rudy and become truly equal. But after being confronted by deaths, not only her parents and grandfather, but also rudy's, and her inability to prevent that has messed up her mind and drove her to secure the closest and most sincere family member she had, rudy. So i symphatize with her. After all, they are basically homeless and the only way to regain her family status is to abandon her promise to rudy and left him to be a mistress to an unknown politician. Something which is rudy and eris wouldn't want to happen
@@LibertyMonkthey’re second cousins, it’s not that icky
I've read the whole light novel series, Eris was really simple minded is the best way to describe why she left the way she did. If she knew the pain and damage she caused him I think she would have wrote a different message like I'm leaving for training to be by your side one day. You would think she was the blonde in the relationship.
I claimed the prestigious 69th like for your comment hahaha
Leaving a clearer message probably wouldn't have helped, Rudeus still be crushed and his self-loathing would have convinced him it was a white lie. She's incapable of telling white lies, but that's also the reason she didn't explain herself better, so that doesn't matter.
@@LibertyMonk he would, BUT he also would have ended up trusting it more after gaining back his self-confidence.
Heve not read that far in the light novels but what i read on forums kinda gives me tje impression that he forgives her to quickly.
Apperently one fight plus one talk?
If do What? The guy was depressed for for a long time got ptsd and co. Thanks to this it should take far longer to overcome this gab.
@@sargonyami4292 "Heve not read that far in the light novels but what i read on forums kinda gives me tje impression that he forgives her to quickly."
No dude. She literally saved him from Orsted. She became the white knight in shining armor saving him in his eyes. Just the fact that she came back to help was enough. And he had gone past the PTSD of her leaving when he married Sylphie.
bruh, I loved how they showed Eris' and Rudeus' perspectives on the same event, Eris being happy and loving rudy while rudy being depressed af cuz eris communicated her intent so poorly.
After finishing the anime MT became the first light novel I’ve ever read. Just finished volume 12 and to be blunt, my heart is in shambles. Definitely a top 3 series for me
Volume 12 just rips your heart appart. Keep reading. It will get more amazing. There are these slice of life moments yes but when shit gets serious, SHIT GETS SERIOUS. End of Volume 14 and Volume 15 is when you are going to love this series so much.
@@severjanlici2032 volume 12 really made me cry like a lot and it makes me sad that I'm about to finish the story with 2 more web novels to go but not as much as volume 12 did
Any idea which volume equals to the end of season 1?
@@lancelotbompard1085 volume 7 is where you should start if you're coming right off the end of this video/season
@@lancelotbompard1085 light novel ends at volume 14 so you would have to transition to the web novel after that
Eris is the character I didn't like at first, but by the end of the series she was borderline my favorite character. No one was as ride or die as her. Her desire for vengeance is unmeasurable.
That last episode had me screaming 'WHAT THE FUCKKKKKK???????' no way in hell Eris will end up with him. She lost the moment she left. That really broke him.
Bruh I just finished the show and was like - You do know this dude is kinda pervert and you know he kinda had a thing for you as well. Yet you literally just abandoned him after saying you wanted to have a family with him. He ain't gonna stay loyal to ya, and in all likelihood if this wasn't an anime, he'd probably get married to someone else and you two would never see each other again.
I mean she told him nothing. I would assume that means we are over. She woulda come back to find me with someone else.
@@AbyssalSoda oh my dear man you've no idea
@@AbyssalSoda I wonder who he married (no spoiler) lololol
@@pepperandsnowflakeadventur3877 Bruh you already spoiled enough by saying "(no spoiler)" like an idiot.
im really hoping in the next season they age up rudeus and eris to what they look like in the LN cuz they look near enough identical to how they started off this journey instead of looking like young adults
I think the lack of a growth spurt was meant to reflect how they viewed themselves, rather than realistically depict two adolescents growing over a couple years together. Both thought they had stagnated in their development.
Eh Eris is noticably taller and leaner. Rudy is a bit slower but even he's gotten a little taller. It's not that hard to see.
My biggest question is if they’ll change voice actor for Rudeus since he’ll be older and his voice will clearly be deeper.
That’s what I was hoping for when I read the books, but she won’t show up until about 20 years later their relationship isn’t developed at all. Next season will see him go to a magic academy where he’ll meet back up with the half elf girl and they married, and she’s pretty boring. He seeks his sisters and mother after the father dies and he reunites with demon tutor girl, and that’s about the only decent action past this season. It sucks after Eris runs off.
@@pillbox1240 why are you just going around spoiling things, and half ass doing it too.
Clearly you are upset with the direction that the author decided to take things, but I truly hope nobody gives your opinion a serious thought as you clearly are undervaluing every aspect of the story you are attempting to spoil.
Eris couldnt have handled that worse, I think we also have to remember that our perspective of situations are alot easier to see because Rudys morality and view of the world has a basis in his past life. Whereas the new world has people seeing everything in a much diffrent light.
I think the explanation is kinda redundant. I dunno about the novels but the anime really did portray her inferiority complex rather well. So when I was at the moment when I was thinking with Rudy why she would leave him. I think back the battle on the beach and how she was always trying to catch up ever since. The clincher was she ran away with Ghislaine. She obviously wanted some guidance to become stronger and by having Rudy with her, her growth would only be stifled by his party carry.
I think the focus on why his past self would never choose the important step of moving forward despite knowing its the correct choice, really is a far more important thing to look into. Because the pay off on Eris's arc is gonna come. Explaining/foreshadowing that its gonna come is as I said redundant. Instead focus on the important part. Why Rudy kept going where he would have simply given up before. Really show that he wasn't just another OP protagonist that just breezes through the story with OP powers. Show that despite all the good things in his life. He has to go through the hardship of life regardless. And therein lies the real test of his character, because he needs real inner strength to find the meaning in life to keep going forward. Otherwise he would have just kept vegging out, as established by his past life.
I think the anime did a great job of showing that she wanted to leave to get stronger, however i think they should have spent more time showing WHY it is that she wants to get stronger.
WHY it is, that she felt like she was taking advantage of Rudeus and WHY it is that she thought she had to go on this journey without him.
This video explains that quite well.
In the novels multiple complex motivations let her come to the conclusion that she has to leave, because Rudy will leave her anyways or she will just hold him back.
In the anime it feels a bit like "I need to get stronger, and i wont be able to with you around."
Eris never wanted to be one of the strongest fighters.
She was fine with being good at the things she likes and can do, but never had any intention of going beyond that.
Eris feels that there is no one beside Rudeus that would ever be romantically interested in her, because there is so little that she can offer (in her mind).
She wants to be an equal to Rudy. She wants to stand beside him, without relying on his support.
I don't feel like retyping. So I'm gonna repost.
More so she wanted to be strong enough to stand beside him. Strong enough no one could bad mouth her as his wife. She didn't want to take advantage of him anymore.
@@trashokahn1445 I mean just from her characterisation its clear. At first Eris could beat the crap out of him and bully him all she wanted. Then she rescued her from kidnappers and earned her respect. And then later from the rest of her family for being such a capable teacher. And during that time with sword training. She looks on proudly at Rudy for clearly being much better than him at it. Showing she's clearly still able to stand above him. But then the cataclysm happened. And from that point on, she struggles as hard as she could to make that superiority over Rudy into something relevant. But Rudy everytime overshadows her.
Right from the start you could tell she has a lot of pride and the moment Rudy showed his ability. She wanted to show him as well as everyone that she was just as capable. You can gain all that from the simple fact that her first introduction showed this competitiveness and pride from the word go. It doesn't really require much mental gymnastics to get that Eris would make this choice. It honestly didn't need to be spelled out constantly. It just her personality throughout. You can tell the depths of her thoughts because she's so straight forward in motivations and goals.
@@ceresbane i recommend you to read the novels since otherwise this discussion isnt going anywhere.
If you think that Eris has an inferiority complex and cant handle Rudy being stronger than her and this being the reason that she left you are irgnoring so many facettes of her character.
@@trashokahn1445 I mean its already mentioned in the video and I kinda stick to my point. You can pretty much intuit a large majority of that by just thinking on her archetype and the fact that she's a love interest. None of that needs to be spelled out. Its all self apparent stuff you can just go by conjecture from these 2 facts about her within the context of events that has transpired.
Yeah cutting out most of Eris's reasoning for leaving did hurt her character for anime onlys. I was a little upset they left all that out. I wouldn't have minded a 45 minute season finale if they could have left Eris's parts in and still kept the flashback too.
Having read the light novel and watched the show, I dont think anything that was cut would have made her look better.
She is the most damaging character to Rudy in the whole story. He may fear other characters but she fucks him up for years.
@@jonfa10 It was all inadvertent. She hurt him yes, but she honestly didn't mean to. She truly wished to come back to him and marry and start a family with him. The one thing she didn't count on was Rudy misinterpreting her note.
Personally, I assumed it was because she felt useless when I saw the episode anyway (I'm an animeOnly pleb), I don't think seeing her explicitly think "I'll go train up, become worthy, and come back for you" would have changed anything.
She still left in a way that made Rudeus think it was all transactional, and made a clean break with a hint of "maybe we'll cross paths someday" that's impossible to see through depression. She had good reasons for leaving, and for not sharing all her plans, but enough of that's already in the anime if you were paying attention to her during their journey back. Which Rudeus was too busy bottling up his own struggles to do.
I could assume why she did it, and it was well implied when she talked to Ghislaine too. Maybe we'll get something in season 2
@@jonfa10 Lol, what? Orsted literally killed him at this point of the story.
Hard to escape a spoiler when it's the title of your video. So I just blocked your channel
Ah yes, i love you so im going to leave you unexpectedly with practically no explanation in a way thats incredibly easy to misconstrue as a lack of interest/love. Eris is mad stupid for not thinking this through
In some ways, the both of them are still kids, and act accordingly, despite pretty much losing their childhood and innocence.
Tbh, Eris hasn't yet finished her education. Plus she is more brawns than brains.
So it's not really out of character for her not to express herself properly in writing.
I felt the same when i read the chapter of Rudeus POV.
But i changed my mind after reading the Eris chapter.
This video does a great job, but reading it adds even more complexity.
It sucks for Rudeus, but i honeslty dont think Eris had any other choice here.
@@trashokahn1445 it was either that or being sold as a concubine, something Rudeus couldn't protect her from even with his power, so, you are correct
@@TheSpawnfan well there were ways for rudy to do so but it would be a massively different story.
So her letter didn't have the emotional impact it was suppose to. But Eris wasn't a character with a lot of Depth...at least not until the end of the season. What's kinda sad is they both separated because of misconceptions of each other. 🤔
read the manga or light novel, this was a wild ride there
Well not really. Eris seperated one sidedly. She didn't really have misconceptions. She just wanted to be strong enough to stand beside and be worthy as a woman to be called his wife. There is no misconception that she currently didn't have that kind of strength.
writing letters comes hard for some people, I know I've a hard time just writing a few sentences in a freaking email. But you are right, Eris didn't realise that she a pillar of strength for Rudy as well, just by being by his side.
@@Zergonapal Exactly. That was my biggest gripe with her leaving the way she did. She only thought of herself and how she wanted to be stronger to be equals. But she also knew he was struggling a lot. So to me, it was super selfish of her to not try to understand him better and just leave with auspicious words.
after all they went through and everything he did for her. he deserved better
i can only hope we get a second season of that anime, to me it is the best anime of last year and one of the best anime overall. And if that was 6 LNs and they have 24 for the whole series we only need 3more seasons which could be doable...god i hope this comes
I wanna say they will adapt the whole story because the studio was made specifically to create this anime, which has been successful. More so because the novels are done already. But I can only hope they will indeed adapt everything.
It’s already been stated that both season 2 and 3 are being worked on so you’ll get your wish lol
@@ItsLynch1 I know there are more seasons in production, but I don't know how many they'll need to adapt the whole novel
@@filipe2338 There's around 14 LN I believe so, only 2 more depending on if they slow down the pacing
Season 2 is here
This series added so much context and made the show infinitely more enjoyable. I look forward to the next season. Thank you.
Its still crazy to think that outside of Eris' final decision to leave Rudeus in the hopes of returning as his equal, the anime was able to clearly and consistently display the emotions and thoughts of all the characters even after condensing several light novel volumes into only a few episodes
I DIDN'T realize there was one last episode I missed. I thought it ended with eris's leaving and haven't checked back. Thank you for the update and love your content.
Oh god imagine that was the end of Season 1
this cut content episode really did alot in explaining the bond dynamics between eris and rudeus due to the journey.
Ik why eris left but Don't you think your note is just a little vague like at least make it clear
she forgot how to write in the 3 years where they were trying to go home and just wrote down the words she remembered from rudys lessons
She thought if she wrote too much he'd find clues and find her which would mess up her solo training arc. Again it goes back to her high praises of Rudy thinking he'll get it even with a short letter. Kinda like Paul reunion with high expectations.
Thats how eris n her grandfather are tho. That note for her was actually a good try. She is also a lil older then him. She struggles to show affection n emotions unless its anger lmao
I think that the nature of the anime using two different VAs for Rudy and Rudy in his past life, as well as the ability make cut-up sequences invited the adaptation's focus on him as the emotional climax of everything so far. This is a change I can get behind.
holy shit this acctually gave me an insane amount of closure, thank you and keep up the great content! you're really good at explaining things LOL
Always a good day when we get more Mushoku content!
it is sad that this will probably be the last day until the ova and second season come out
@@Michaelonyoutub when are those coming out
@@ChaseeCS the ova is out on funimation, but they haven't release a date for season 2 yet, though they have confirmed it is in production.
Its kinds clear she left to get stronger and not be in Rudy's shadow. Although some of the choices she made weren't good the reasons were definitely valid
I am really happy at how this series is going. Mushoku Tensei is one of the first novels I've read and when I finished it, it left me in tears. It had a really fitting ending. Really looking forward to the future seasons of this show.
this is the best isekai, not just stupid op mc, fanservice everywhere, and stupid world bulding, i think its safe to say that this is the best isekai
This anime is so well made. Its from my 200 watched anime my top 12. So yeah its a S Class anime 💥🔥🤙
personally im very upset at how poorly they did the whole eris leaving thing. this kind of poor execution can turn fan favorite characters into the most hated characters on the internet within a week. they should not have split erises explanation into a 2nd episode and they should have done better at giving that explanation since i still know people who dont understand her intentions.
What's there to understand about one-sidedly abandoning someone?
@@stalincat2457 after rudy almost died eris realized how much she loved him and how she feared loosing him again. later when she found out her entire family was dead and rudy was all she had left out of her fear of loosing him she decided to have sex with him which in hear mind cemented their bond as family so they would always be together. however eris realized that she was not yet good enough for rudy, she did not want a repeat of their last fight where she was borderline useless and instead wanted to be able to stand by rudy and even protect him. she knew she could never learn these things with rudy by her side since she hand a tendency to rely on him to much so she decided to go on a journey with ghislane in order to become good enough for rudy. her letter should have said something along the lines of "rudy i love you but im not good enough to stand by you yet so i have gone off on a journey to become stronger so i can stand by you rather than rely on you. ill be back when im able to do that" however because eris is immature and not able to communicate her feelings very well her letter lacked the explanation needed.
keep in mind eris was just a 15 year old girl who was never very good at understanding herself or others and it is very realistic for such a young girl in her shoes to act this way. one of the reasons i love eris as a character is because she contrast rudy very well in that she is slightly older than rudy but still a young girl and she behaves like a young girl would. rudy on the other hand is younger than her but has the soul of an old man inside him so he is more mature in certain areas. these are realistic characters for the most part (rudys lewd side is realistic for some people i guess) acting in realistic ways given their circumstances and whilst you can say eris did not take Rudy's feelings into account when she did what she did you have to acknowledge that a girl in her circumstances might not be emotionally mature enough to do something like that. especially since eris was spoiled by her parents and then later on even rudy spoiled her to some extent. whilst she grew up alot as a character during her journey with rudy her ability to understand how others feel and show others how she feels is still very stunted as is evidenced by her not being able to cry until rudy leaves the room. yeah it sucks for rudy that this happened but had eris done this in any other way it would not have been in line with her character at this point in time.
@@youcanthandlemyname7393 And that's why it's hated, because it is meant to be. It was supposed to be immature of her to cut tail and just run away like that. Though what I really don't like is how the author drop her off the face of the earth for 8 chapter just to show up in the end for a battle. Just out of nowhere, without any communication for 5 years in universe time and 2 years real time. It just feels completly unrelevant at that point, and she shows up in the end just for the perfect "happy ending".
@@anhduc0913 I mean if your talking about the novels, we do get 3 end of novel side stories about her progress training. It's basically the same treatment that sylphie gets, disappearing for 7 novels with side stories in between updating on her progress.
Mushoku is THE isekai anime of the year!
I've read the light novels and the adaptation is pretty okay in the faithful side of things. The pervert side of the MC is true but I can assure that many that bad mouth it, have not even seen enough of it or read the light novels...
I love the scene with zenith so much. The Author said in an Interview that his mother was for him the most important person.
GOD IT STILL HURTS 😭
Thanks so much for uploading tho. I never fully understood Eris leaving so u really clarified things for me
That episode hits so hard because I can relate with Eris wanted to get closer to someone she loves and look up
I've been waiting for this. I love mushoku tensei and am excited for more. I don't know if a season 2 has been announced but I hope it will be announced soon and that it would release in a year or fall 2022.
Eris felt weak and wants to be the one to protect Rudy no matter what. When she watched him also die it almost broke her deep to her core. She never wanted to be that weak again in her life and she wanted to get strongest enough that something like that could never happen to Rudy agin. But being as thick as she is and bad with words Rudy only seen her leave thinking she did not love him and wanted to find a new path. And Rudy being self logging and self hateing as he always is just instantly seen himself as the problem and allowed his own mind to tare himself apart peice by peice. Eris is very much someone insanely important to Rudy and loseing him at that moment changed him forever. But him finding the strength to move fed and not shut down like his past life just goes to show how much he has grown as a person. He even moved away from his old persona allowing it to die so he can be truely reborn in this world with people he loves and a reason to live with a mission to save his mother. This is what we call a good story and why so many people love this anime. I look fwd to seeing how well they adapt the series.
The sad part is, anyone who would of been in Rudious position would of came to the same conclusion.
Eris was terrible at explaining herself, which was perfectly in character for her.
Recently finished vol 14 of the LN and currently reading vol 17 of the WN and goddamn I gotta admit I understand all the hype lmao
Did you find some good WN translations?
I get that the WN Translation tries to be as close to the japanase as possible but the constant adressing someone in the 3rd person just sucks me out of the immersion.
Ah smart she feared he would end up leaving her so she took the initiative and left him first. Big brain maneuvers right there.
Day 20 of asking for a king hassan servant review
Many ppl think Eris is selfish for leaving Rudy but if u didnt read the manga or light novel u dont understand her reason which are serious ones. Given how hard she works in the coming years it shows just how much Rudy means to her and how loyal she is to him.
Spoiler for LN vol 14-15!

when u hear from Oldeus what Eris did for him when he went dark was kinda heart wrenching to read. After succumbing to madness in a way she followed him and even ended up saving his life by dying for him. And when Rudy fights Orsted again she comes to the rescue like a gallant knight and finaly joins the family for real.
Even though she is more of an "husband" than wife and her libido is quite strong XD"
I'm not that far in, but IMO Eris is best girl, as she literally left him to grow stronger and to not hold him back/over rely on him. Her problem is simply that her tendency/habit of being a bit of a muscle-for-brains type is that she's not a great match on an intellectual level, but she still pursued what path she could find in hopes of being able to do for him what he did for her. That level of thoughtfulness, mixed in with that stoicism just slays me... lol
Sure she had a valid reason and eventually shows her loyalty. But all she had to do was explain her feelings and add that she still saw a future with him. If she only communicated better, both characters could grow on their own and do what they needed to do. But instead she throws Rudy into a pit of despair without considering his feelings at all. Just a one-sided betrayal in Rudeus' eyes. Like cmon at least tryyy to understand him and she might've realized how much support she was for him.
Think of the very first episode that Eris appeared in. Communication is not one of her strengths.
It's also worth noting that as the audience, we know a lot of Rudy's internal monologue and feelings, so we know that a lot of the self-confidence that he projects is a sham. She doesn't realize that though, and we don't have the same level of insight into her feelings. Rudy is also pretty bad at communicating.
@@Jdog-tt8qe She was determined to leave and knew that Rudeus would talk her out of it if she had faced Rudy before leaving. The fault is still on her for not being good at communicating, but that is just how her character is. She isn't supposed to be someone who know what others feel at such a young age, nor is she the type to write a lengthy letter to express her thoughts, especially when she is the one who is still struggling to deal with her own issues.
@@Jdog-tt8qe I have to agree with the others that we know more about how Rudy thinks and feels since he also is more mature in terms of age but on the other side felt much pain and suffering in his old life.
To Eris Rudy is a beacon of light and person who can do everything thats why she thought the letter was enough. She also knew if she talked to him in person he would follow her which she didnt want.
Also on the side note Sylphy is best wife for me because she hold the family together
Leaving without saying goodbye is such a cruel thing to do...she knew that he has no family left at least at that spot but she did it anyway... She went down quite some points in my eyes after this
She literally hit and quit it and I don't like her for it at all. There's ways she could've gone about it.
Bruh . We all watched the episode but missed her point of view . But now what is your excuse now that watched the explanation? Are you stupid ?
Didn't he finish meeting up with his dad and younger sister before leaving? And didn't he also have an encounter with his younger half-sister?
If it doesn't have a goodbye then she plans to meet him again.
@@gloomy9728 I think they meant that he had no family there and so when she left him he was all alone with no family or friends to help him!
I have to say, the image of Eris in the manga when Rudeus talked about fighting Orstead and obtaining disable magic was so much more powerful. It showed both her fear and disgust, not only of Orstead at that point. But, of Rudeus as well.
why would eris be disgusted to rudeus and orsted?
@@Yoshida.Kobayashi Because Orstead pretty much destroyed all of her hard work, and his curse made her fear his existence in its entirety, and Rudeus had realized potential ideas to taking care of Orstead before fighting him once more.
It was essentially something that she couldn't fully understand from Rudeus' angle, so she feared him for that- at least when he told her about it.
@@cptcarlos583 but it's cute when eris kept being silent when she heard that rudy is came from another world hahaha
@@Yoshida.Kobayashispoiler warning?
@@mikka8007 read at your own risk
This show is a master class on how to adapt literature to a screen.
What I like about this channel is that, unlike Foxen, you don't present cut content as being to the anime's detriment. Cut content is simply inherent to adapting a story from a written medium to a visual one. It's more a question of what's cut and how that determines if it's bad. Thankfully, Mushoku Tensei is very good at "show, don't tell", so some of the skipped content can be inferred from facial expressions and choice words. In this case, most of what you explained as Eris' reasoning was what I inferred. She clearly said that she wanted to get stronger, and her letter said that they weren't "well-matched" which I took to mean "well-balanced". Sure, I'd like some of that nuance from her perspective, but her character arc throughout the entire season pretty much backs up her decision.
This episode made me read the whole LN , was done with whole novel plus side stories in 21 days , definitely a very good watch
*Read
You don't watch Lightnovels unless you just stare at the page and go "Nice scribbles"
@@jackb.207 that’s what I do
I appreciate your work and giving us these very detailed reviews of episodes. You made this show 10x better than what I already thought it was. Thank you and I hope you keep the content up!
Disagree with when she realized she needed to leave, she clearly knew before their intimate moment and wanted to have that before she leaves. She still talks about him as she’s in love and she wants to be with him, she only left because she thought she believed she could never become good enough for him as long as she has him by her side to rely on. She wants to come back to him on an equal level
You made us wait a while for this didn't you?
After only watching the anime, I was like damn, Eris hit it then quit it. Which, she still kind of did.
But this video helped frame a few things. Rudy was really the only thing she had left, and she loved him, so she came onto him in order to keep him.
But she realized that sleeping with him *now* was wrong. They weren’t ready, and she took advantage of him. Ironic considering he was worried of taking advantage of her.
How do you sleep with someone you genuinely love, and then tell them it’s a mistake? It’s easier to just leave. She’s only 15 herself, so still immature, especially in these matters.
Still. She should have added in the letter that she loves him and to wait for her. I haven’t read the source material, but something tells me not doing so was a massive mistake considering the other girls on Rudy’s radar.
P.S. I do wish the anime would have spent just a little more time fleshing out Eris’s PoV leading up to this. I realize there’s only so much you can fit in, but this was really important for both characters.
sorry to disappoint u but the future animation will focus on rudeus pov :(
I believe eris did the right move tbh because seeing Rudy die in front of her made her vulnerable remember when she was calling out or saying dad grandpa mom grandma brother sister help please she was scared and traumatized seeing someone she fell for died
Basically she did a Goku for example, it’s kinda like how Goku leaves for a while to train but then comes back more powerful
'Rudeus you and I are not equals. I am leaving on a journey.' To Eris the meaning seems obvious. She is not his equal and so is leaving on a journey to get stronger to one day be worthy of becoming his wife. Simple and clear cut. But Rudeus wakes up to find her gone, her hair on the floor, and a message that leaves him completely confused. He interprets it as her telling him he is not good enough to be with her and that she has decided to leave him. AFTER taking his virginity. Of course that completely crushes him and even results in a certain psychological... issue.
i always thought that in any film, tv series or anime, if people do talk with each other the correct amount, like 90% of the problem wont happen. eris is another example of it.
same as real life tho
Never clicked so fast for a video !
And this is why relationships are hard to maintain man
I loved every episode in this series so far, currently on volume 23 of the web novel, and even if ep 23 was great, the 14 page soliloquy by eris at the end of volume 6 not getting properly adapted was the one thing that keeps this from being a perfect 10/10. Its my favorite moment in the series, and i cried reading it, tear up every time. Its what got me to buy the novels. Still loved the anime though.
what rudeus wants is literally said by ruijerd "If he is depressed, comfort him", ruijerd never said physically, but the answer is emotionally, after bombardments of scenarios happening at each episode, rudeus needs a friend who will stay beside him in the moments of his depressing moments.
And thats exactly what happens in Season 2
omg yessss
The cut goblin hunting chapter and it's accompanying content at the pier where Rudy meets his aunt should have been kept. It was also odd they spent a whole episode on the rainy season section as that was much shorter in the LN. The next season won't have as much of an epic journey but will have far more character development and a lot of interesting and important characters to meet. Curious how much their going to lay into Rudy's new "condition".
you did a fantastic job reviewing and sharing the cut content man, Im currently rewatching Arifuereta would love to see u review the cut content. But anyways fabulous job with Mushoku, I hope they announce a 2nd season after the special airs in march
This anime is so crazy, it was so hard watching the last episodes, made me so sad, hit me in the feels real bad like no other anime really has before. It's almost to the point where I can't watch it, or think about it because I start crying, emotions man...
The story is amazing can't wait to see the next series of events get animated, this decision eris chose can only bring consequences to both her and rudy
Can you like.... Upload more 😭
Love your voice.
In regards to the Orsted part - Eris actually misinterpreted what Rudeus meant (mind you he didn't say it well).
Rudeus was prepping for his next encounter with Orsted SHOULD it happen, so that he would have a fighting chance as apposed to having the issues he did in that first fight. He never PLANNED on fighting him again if he could help it.
ERIS however, took that statement as Rudeus PLANNING to not only fight him AGAIN, but BEAT him, hence both her issues and reasoning in needing to get stronger in order to help him.
EDIT: In regards to the note - The WN (idk about the LN) talks about how because she hadn't been reading/writing for basically the entire journey (in her defense it was another language), she had forgotten most of it, but didn't want to leave without saying anything, so her note wasn't that great for that reason, as well as her just being Eris, who never was the greatest with words anyhow.
Eris being afraid she would become a hindrance to the man she loved, without realising that she was the very reason he was able to do the things he did. Him not ever worrying about the future for as long as Eris was inn it, it would be a good one - Kinda sad :(
I'll definitely be watching the videos for Arifureta season 2. I had given up hope that season 2 would ever happen, so I was thrilled when they announced season 2 was finally happening
It would be better for the manga writer to make eris come back because we don't care about the one with the long ears
Light novel reader here, it’s gonna be a while till she reappears in the main story
I recently read the manga to clear up some misunderstandings. Quickly found out the anime really wanted you to be in Rudeus shoes and mind, while the manga gave you the point of views of most characters and answered your questions/misunderstandings rather quickly. Still feel super bad for Rudeus in his "E.D." arc....
u better read the light novels or web novels first cuz manga skipped the whole arc and lack of details and information
@@Yoshida.Kobayashi I've read the manga up until the encounter with Badigadi and started reading the light novel. So much content that is not in the manga.
@@chronicle325 im for one, am willing to sacrifice some context for pretty pictures
Yeah, the books didn't immediately explained why Eris left, it was after they found themselves again that Eris explained her reasons.
The anime made me hate her immediately. She declared she wanted them to spend their lives together, then left the next morning. Bro became suicidal because she couldn't bother to leave an explanation.
I cried when eris left him
who didnt
I'm super tempted to make this the first LN I pick up. I'm pretty caught up in the manga and even though there are parts that feel too slice of life highschool romcom to me I still liked it. Just not as much as the first part atm.
After finishing the anime I'm down to pick back up from where the anime stops but w/the LN.
God i wish I could rewatch this as if it were the first time. Easily one of the best Isekais to date.
The whole Eris incident can be summarized in one Joker quote :
"Very POOR choice of words."
in short,, she left cuz MC is to good for her.
i hope MC marry someone else first.
I genuinely hated Eris as a character when we first introduced to her in part 1. She was your typical annoying anime girl trope that I just don't like. But man, by the end of part 2 I seriously think that Eris could potentially be the best girl in the future. This is what I really like about this show, it manages to gives a shuttle character development, not just eris or rudeus, but every character just felt so human that of course, could change from time to time
rudeus love her so much she's always besides him in evey fight
how to summarize a 12 minute episode, cause Eris literally said it herself: she left him to become better and be worthy of rudeus
she left him a very cruel way. "we don't belong together" without goodbyes, we'll meet again or maybe forget about me. I understand she probably want him to not search for her by maybe being cruel but come on. he's not gonna stay loyal since then even if they both meet again
True, this is like the only reincarnated story where you can see pieces of his past life. Most of the others just told you how they died and just forget about their past life. Through out anime it shows how his past haunts him.
7:23 dragon biting on his own tail sign of longevity or immortality so I’m guessing he’s immortal
Why would you put a spoiler in the title
It doesn't matter that you leave, it's how you leave and how she decided to leave puts her in my "dumpster girl" list.
Rudeus is 40++ years old (if you include his past life) and Eris is only 15 year old. If you put Eris in "dumpster girl" list than shouldn't you put Rudeus in a "dumpster adult" list too?
u will love her soon
@@Desi_Nehra 15 years old is considered as adults in their world and also eris is the first girlfriend/fiancé of rudeus and the promise is after they turned 15 rudy and eris will marry each other that's the old man philip's wish before he died
@@Desi_Nehra what do you expect him to do? want him to chase after 40+ years old girl? she grew on eris and eris just said "we don't belong together" without even goodbye. maybe he can chase after Roxy since she's 50 but Roxy isn't gonna date a child lol. (yet)
@@wizzell The OP blamed Eris for being immature and called her a dumpster girl. *I just proved Rudeus was being immature as well.* Blaming Eris alone is missing the full picture.
This is due to his trauma. Rudeus still hasn’t gotten over his insecurity and feeling of worthlessness which, considering his age when he died in Japan, means he likely felt that self loathing for decades. As much progress as he’s made that kind of internal dialogue is really hard to break and often re-emerges during new traumatic events.
All I can say is, after reading the manga(not the novel) I cannot help but to hate eris. although it wasn’t intentional, the damage she dealt by leaving rudy was enormous and depending on when she comes back, there’s a good chance that Rudeus would reject her
in a certain timeline rudeus reject her
btw i read it somewhere manga is a fanmade that's why it's different from the anime and light novel
I just recently finished all 26 volumes of the web novel.
oldeus is so op but he's sucks
The way I saw it, Rudeus just got the No Bitches ending to this chapter.
I really hope season 2 is longer or they don't try to adapt 6 books like in season 1. Lot of character growth for Rudy id hate to see cut.
This is probably going to be talked about in the next season. This is premium content, and the way they didn’t 100% respect the timeline makes me believe we’ll get episodes from Eris pov like the one Roxy had where they showed her pov of seing dead eye
Thanks for telling Eris prospective for leaving more clearly than anime.
Most of the people who hate her for her end action, if they can watch this video , I think their dought will be little bit more clear after that.
I always love Eris more than anyone. If others don't agree with me then that's fine but if the people who like Eris please tell me what that makes you feel that way in reply......
eris has always been the best girl for me.screw those who hate on her without understanding her.
@@gowthambalor5592 thanks thanks so so much for understanding 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
@@gowthambalor5592 those who hate blindly are just oblivion npcs lmao
The fact that she left for 5 years and never sent any message to him or anything, and if he did not told her that he was going after the dragon guy she would probably stayed there for more years it just pissed me off . I don't like her
eris is on the way to asura kingdom to be an escort when rudeus letter arrived in the holy land of sword and after eris know rudy has 2 wives she went silent for a moment and regain herself after hearing the word "i will challenge dragon god orsted"
OMG thank you for this explanation,,. I'm kinda looking for a comfort after that episode.I cannot understand why or even think of a better reason why she left him because anger hit me first. I too experience the same feeling and It hurts soooo much that I cried after I saw rudeus face. I saw myself in him. It was 12 years ago thou but the feeling just hurts so much. been depressed and hiding it for almost 2 years and then I met someone. 3 years of courtship and now she became my wife. we have a 5yo baby girl and another blessing is coming soon. no communication with that girl ever since but still I wish she is as happy as I am now. 😊
