It was noted in the lightnovel that rudeus fireball would have the explosive equivalent of a nuke, as he wasn't paying much attention/ was on the verge of death and simply tried to throw everything he got at orsted - my boy would have disintegrated the whole mountain

Episode 21 sold me on reading the LN. Orsted is insane and they’re all honestly luck they were allowed to live. Fun fact, Orsted went after Rudeus’ lungs because he wouldn’t be able to chant to cast magic if they collapsed. Orsted was genuinely surprised to see someone be able to cast without an incantation. Rudeus also couldn’t wordlessly heal himself because he doesn’t understand how magical healing works so he needs incantations

Plenty of folks have commented about episode 21's fight, clarifying that Orsted collapsed his lungs as a standard anti-mage tactic. But the whole fight after that has so many amazing little details: Rudy's first attack is his magic bullet shaped to a point and with spirals etched in to achieve modern day bullet spin, but he also rotated it faster than he had in the past, heating the bullet up due to friction. It ends up being classified as a very high tier magic much later on (but it's awesome to see a semblance of his future power so early on). His next move was to force air into his body to keep from passing out. Third, his fireballs kept getting dispelled and he was still very close to Orsted, so his casting arm was hiding his other hand, which he used to generate an air blast that Orsted wouldn't disrupt that would give him distance. Then he used earth magic to prop himself up, giving him something to lean against and a better angle for firing a fireball. And, finally, plenty of people have already clarified about his nuclear fireball. I'm sure plenty of folks have explained that Orsted used his gate instead of approaching because he was sure Rudy not healing himself would be a trap. In all the situations where he tried to read Orsted, Orsted's power gap made it impossible for Rudeus's ability to make sense of the possibilities Orsted had to attack. How powerless must you feel to see dozens of ways for you to die in an instant and have the fear of knowing you probably can't stop it. And that's the details in Episode 21 that are only about the fight. Don't even get me started on Nanahoshi, Hitogami, the Mana Disaster, the 1st episode, and the absolute drenching of the dialogue with foreshadowing, all of which had details in episode 21 that have huge implications once you've gotten further into the story. Go past the 4th or 5th turning point and then come back and watch this episode again. It'll be an entirely different episode to you.

This show has awesome sound effects, good story and perfect animations. This anime feels very original of it own. You can say it's one of a kind.

6 out of 10 is insane. its literally the best isekai that set the standard for everything that came after it lol... adapting the books as faithfully as they did and embodying the filmmaking standard of "show dont tell" season one was a masterpiece

15:47 - "That's why you ain't got no hair on your head" Had me wheezing

What a great show!!! Can't find ep 13 - 15 tho. Won't be available here on KZfaq?

bro where is 13,14 and 15?

31:54 funny enough he actually broke both his legs on landing and Aisha pissed herself when they launched in the lightnovel

Fun fact: during the fight with orsted after he crushed rudys lungs he was very cautious of rudy because he wasnt sure why he didnt heal them and assumed it was a trap to make him let his gaurd down

Bro was so deep during the Roxy scene at 27:00 I’ve never seen him so quiet and focused 😂❤

At min 11 you said that Rudeus was chilling at the start of the disaster, but that's only because he was the one in that situation, he was strong enough not to pass out and wise enough to think a way to stop the fall, otherwise Eris and Him would have splat in the ground due to the teleportation in the sky

Honestly, Mushoku Tensei is my all time favorite anime, and I've been annoyed at a lot of criticisms of the show that I find unfair, but that's because noone seems to be able to give their opinion respectfully. You gave your reasons for which parts you personally don't like as much, and praised those moments you did like for what they were, and gave your overall opinion of the show respectfully, making it clear that it's just your opinion, and I respect the hell out of that. I wish more people knew how to simply give their opinions respectfully like this.

bro woke up and said: fuck it whole reaction movie

I can't believe he said eminence in shadow is better than this. I mean eminence in shadow is good, but for the wrong reason tho ngl

On Orsted's curses stopping him from ever using his full powers.... They don't. He has his own reasons not to go all-out.

People would laugh at a guy who got dumped the next morning.. which is sad but that's how life works.. women should be protected and men have to suck it up.. life goes on.. that's why men's tears are meaningfull.. they are rare and true

Orsted gave Rudy the ulquiorra special

Imagine a paladin name dropping his god only for the person they were talking to being like: "Really? Imma smoke you on my way to smoke them. Should have had a different god's favor bro"

I think you’re the first person I’ve ever seen call the show above average… most people either love it or hate it

Listened to summaries from the light novel and wow, im hyped to see some of those things animated

bitch really just said he likes eminence in shadow over mushoku tensei, which is in my opinion the greatest isekai and one of the greatest fantasy shows of all time

Lmfao I LOVE Eminence, Love Slime, Like Black Clover, but they dont even compare to me, the story, the depth, world building is incredible in this series(so good that I started reading LN/Manga because of this) Also again I love Slime, but it has sooooooo much boring stuff, meeting episodes which felt like they dragged on for an eternity. Granted that could've been just the way they made the show(especially the part where they show parts, end the season, then redo the damn parts all over again and we dont even get to the next stuff for a few episodes). And Black Clover suffers from waaaay too many episodes, as much as I did like it, LOVE Naruto, but whenever any series has to do hundreds of episodes there is so much stuff that feels like its filling up space or going in circles.

Nah, Eris didn't dump Rudeus. She's just.... absolutely terrible with communication. She 100% blamed herself for Rudeus "dying" with Orsted. She absolutely believed she should've been able to stand up to him, if only long enough to buy Rudy the time needed to run, recover or counter attack - and the fact that Ruijerd and Rudy both managed to at least put up some resistance while she got quite literally one shotted by Orsted was a huge blow to her ego. When she said they "weren't well matched" she meant it in the sense that all she'd done up to this point was rely on him - and she wanted to start giving back to that relationship, to be in a place where she could protect him rather than the other way around. But she can't, and she knew it... which was why she left with Ghislaine for the sole purpose of growing stronger, to follow up on Ruijerd's claim that she could eventually surpass him. That said, Eris being Eris... of course she had no idea how to communicate that in a healthy manner, and what we got was the note that was left with Rudy. Which, obviously, was taken at face value and with Rudy reasonably assuming the worst between his prior life experiences and the exact words written. As for why she didn't discuss it face to face, it was for the same reasoning Paul didn't allow Rudy to talk him out of being sent to the Boreas household - both realized there was a very good chance that Rudy would succeed in talking them out of that decision despite it needing to be done, at least in their minds. Poor communication kills and this is a prime example of that.

this is my fav isekai neel, but i've got to learn that ppl can have different opinions so i respect whatever you said

Cant wait for Turning Point 3 and 4 Turning point 4 get animated shits gonna be wild

1:17:29 I respect this honest feelings of yours sir This show is amazing to me to the point that I would rate it 9/10 but I still can't deny that I only watch some peak episodes when watching people's reactions

Vierra wearing that bikini armor is actually explained _in detail_ in the books: Since everyone uses mana in some way, warriors can coat their flesh in it and use it to power their abilities and strengthen their bodies' defences. Rudeus *is incapable of doing this* despite his best attempts, so he's one of the physically weaker adventurers and combatants in the setting. So wearing bikini armor wouldn't be a hindrance when you're protected from the smaller scrapes and can use healing magic for anything more significant. Furthermore her backstory is that she and her sister Shierra ended up in the middle of a bandit camp after the Teleportation Incident and both were repeatedly raped. Vierra's psyche endured, but Shierra's didn't. She developed androphobia, so Vierra keeps men's looks off her by giving them something else to look at. This is why Paul is especially angered by Rudeus' insinuations, besides the fact he's been celibate ever since the Teleportation Incident. When it comes to Paul fighting drunk, it's just that he's so good at fighting that he powers through the booze. But it wouldn't surprise me if North God Style included a drunken fighting style. Practitioners of the school do get eccentric, like a halfling swordsman wears extremely well polished armor to reflect sunlight in his opponent's eyes.

Big ups for the long video, boutta watch all of it one sitting i got my popcorn

Uhh where are eps 13,14,15?

If your not on rudeus side from the start here, you've not followed along that he is still inside of a childs body.. adult mind or not The amount of danger rudues was in, he wouldn't survive the demon continent without ruijerd

where is episode 13 14 and 15? xdddddddd

i thought you dropped it again thank god this dropped :D

Can't wait for Season 2!

Mmmm, I can kinda see your point, but Eminence writing wise is mostly what you explained, its more about the entertainment that super well written plots, i'd definitely argue the Jobless has more complex writing in comparison to Eminence. Even in the baser aspects like both MCS being op, Jobless handles it in a much more balanced manner, this allows for proper tension in a battle action anime, Shadow on the other hand feels completely unstoppable at every point In the show, his battles are meant to be hype because as an audience we wont get tension because no way is he going to lose. I get it tho, your point is from the basis of appeal and not narrative structure itself.

Mans dead ass placed eminence in the shadows over Mushoku. Your opinion but horrible taste ngl. I can tell that his preference is overpowered mcs with asspull powerups. W reactions tho.. enjoyed watching.. but that taste? Horrid.

Bring this show back man

Millis is very beautiful on the outside, but the religion is highly fanatical. Imagine the Papal States where the Inquisition is the official police force. The nobility are locked in a great game much as the Asuran nobility are. Still, the opening theme for that episode always makes me weep because it makes me feel so safe. The writer of that piece understands liturgical music.

13 14 and 15??? Where???

Man, I love the song he ending song for this 2nd half. also, first time seeing those shades she had, just went _"sheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeesh"_

Thinking that eminence in shadows, black clover and slime better than the best isekai is CRAAAZY, but i guess opinions are opinions.

47:39 “it’s my hero mask”

didn't see that comin 😳

Holy shit 🔥🔥🔥 what a drop

"What the fuck was her mother teaching her?" They're nobility. *Asuran* nobility. Pilemon, Rudeus' uncle and the man they were planning to hand Eris over to, had his second son when he was ten years old. When Philip and Hilda were handing her to Rudeus as a birthday present (and to cement their betrothal), Hilda told Eris to her face that Rudeus is the only male who would ever tolerate her and he'd be her only marriage prospect. That's why she came back to his room after running out, thinking that even if she weren't happy in marriage, she'd still be with him. Her seeing Rudeus apologize for being so pushy was what made her start falling in love with him. In the novels this is what she was thinking after they slept together. She'd finally come to terms with being in love with him and she couldn't bear being a burden to him. So she's going off to train in the art of the sword, to be his equal when he fights Orsted again. Her seeing him practice the ability Orsted used on him made her think he's going to challenge him again, so she wants to be ready as a swordswoman capable of cutting the Dragon God down, or at the very least pin him so Rudeus can finish him off. She tried to word her message in a way that would reassure him, but wouldn't give him enough information to track her down and dissuade her from the path she's chosen. She came to the same conclusion as Paul did when Rudeus was 7: neither can win against him in an argument.

A Blessing from the Lord!

Patiently waits for season 2 trailer reactions.

As someone with a major in AV Communication, I can confidently say that Mushoku Tensei has waaay better writing than other isekais, it's objectively better, but I have been watching you for some time now and I understand that this isn't really the type of show you prefer, you are more for the absurd power battles, comedy and edgy characters, for shows that make you enjoy yourself more than a more "crude" story, that's why I'm looking forward to when you watch Slime S3 and The Eminence In Shadow S2, I bet those are going to be fun lol

Ahhh, yes, my favorite perv MC 37:26 bruh off his rocker this is way better than eminence of the shadow.

Rudy joins the donut club

No OVA?!? I get so sad nobody watched the OVA when it happens in the season. Someone likely already said it, but they cut Rudeus landing and breaking tf outta his legs, and Aisha pissing herself(rightfully so!). Rudi helps her wash up, and he is surprised that seeing a naked girl does nothing "for him," thinking it's because it's his sister. This matters a little later on. 44:22 Uuuummmm, dude. Thise barriers are not circles. They are domes. Lolz

bro u are the best the goat thanks bro i felt like i waited a year for this

My fav isekai ❤❤❤

In the pantie scene you might have missed that he was licking them with his tongue before that girl attacked

Wholesome anime 😢😢

how about ep 13-15? -.- youtube is a platform for you to lure new people in and potentially get them to sub to patreon, yet it feels like yt is completely neglected...

Yeah I’ve seen people not liking my favorite shows before, especially it being MT, quite a few people I know dropped this early. Just surprised that he likes Eminence more. Like, what?

1:06:35 EXACTLY BRO 😭😭😭

season 1 is more like a introduction

where are your ep. 12 to 15 reaction

I feel bad for Ellenalise. Her story is pretty tragic once you get to know more about her and why she is the way she is (she doesn't bang dudes by choice, at least not at first). The characters of this show are so great. I love Roxy, Eris, Rudy, Ellenalise the most but so many side characters that we get to know better in season 2 are also amazing. Then we get into the world building more and it gets really interesting. After reading a bunch of the LN this series is easily in my top 3 of all time. I'm still not done but the point I'm at it's already incredible.

Bro has to wait for Turning Point 4 before the true absolute fight for Rudy

aaah i mean opinions are nice and all but when i rate i usually go for 3 main criteria: Animations: one of the best you'll see to this day at leat 8.5 Plot: show is not finished so can't give a definite vote, but the world building was good, and how the different stories got linked together with the episode passing was also good. Since it's unfinished i would say 7 Characters: the main cast is pretty well built, the internal conflict of the MC is also well portrayed: 7.5 Giving this a final score of 7.7, bringing this down to a 6 seems pretty hard to me cause there were not very apparent flaws in the show, i would like to understand your criteria on this one.

I think you should create a video this long for the seven deadly sins cuz its big

Is there Episode 13-15 reaction? I can't find it.

where is 13-15 of your reactions?

Yes.....I have a trophy juuuust for Gisu. Yes yes...

1:16:22 I hope he did, that's my head-canon: mementos for all 3 waifus.

whats great about mushoku is it gives the more depth to the character of rudeus (and others) and also delves onto the flaws of his character, he is not perfect, he has his own insecurities along with his responsibility, and although he was gifted with massive amount of mana it does not mean that he is the strongest there is ( which is completely different from other shonen) and besides s1 is only the introducton of rudeus, we will see him grow and experience all his achievements and hs development, ( I mean his story does goes till his in his 70's)

Theres some massive hot takes here ngl

What a nice drop, i thought youre not gonna watch this anymore

Eh.. directly 16-23? It was so sudden for me 😅...

Norn and Ruijerd 💀

What I get from your rating is that you only enjoy the action aspect of mushoku tensei and not the story and world building part. Understandable.

Neels reaction is op But management is sure worse

damn the Mushoku Tensei hivemind invaded this comment section fr XD

6/10 is wild

this was a ova

Where are the other episodes?

This guy rushing

Geese .........

YOOOOOOOOOO FINALLYYYYYYY

he compared mushoku tensei with black clover .-. only with the mushoku tensei power system destroy black clover, dont even say the story and character development, black clover is "mada mada akiramenai" and power up, and that's without talking about the 2nd season and the new things mushoku tensei brings

You have a mid taste putting slime and Eminence higher than MT. Understandable

finally

wth,so looooog

Yo

This is a thought provoking anime not a shonen, with depth, development, LMFAO Black Clover over this.. Haha. BC is like the most basic brain off scream action nonstop, that's it. Mushoku is a masterpiece, Black Clover is a Saturday morning Cartoon. 6/10 haha wow. That just shows the lack importance he has for depth, and what's important to him is bang pow zap. And Eminence is just a goof, its really funny, but it has ZERO depth. Its a guy who is a Chunibyo who just wants to be strong for no reason, its a shallow as a bottle cap full of water. That's like saying the Cat in the Hat is better than Lord of the Rings or Game of Thrones 😆

All I'll say is the payoff for the depth and attention to detail in this show will only snowball over time. It's weird to me because this author just wrote A's in virtually every single category of what males a good overall story. And it was a weekly webserial published with zero ability to revise. It's just building a base. Imo conflict, tension and fights are amplified by a good grounded story focusing on ideals, characters and worldbuildimg. Most shows taper off at season 3 and are utter shit by season 5. This show will become exponentially better as it goes on. This is a prologue. Basically, the main plot doesnt surface till the end of season 2. It will either be the finale or early season 3

What he said at the end i can agree with

Bro has a wife????

Bro just skipped a bunch of episodes cause why not?

Bro why do u pause for no fkn reason

i enjoyed this show to, but really can't stand when he act full on like a pedo and bcz of this my rating of this show is not more above then a solid 7.0, tbh i really don't see the pedo side of him being to valuable in the show, its just really devalue him as the main character

Neel ever heard of Campione! God Slayer?
