These "skipped content" videos for this series are always appreciated. It helps flesh flesh out the world and people's motivations better.

It's so hard being an anime only fan and when talks about skipped content because that just goes over my head. I'm just enjoying this series as a new fan

Couldn't agree more the Elinalise scene felt a little lacking, but they nailed Ariel's bit at the end.

I think Nanahoshi was giving Rudeus the chance to explain things to Sylphy. That is his responsibility

Despite the skipped content throughout the seasons, I really enjoy both how the slice of life and action is animated from the LN. I would even say I enjoy the slice of life being animated even more. It was still a touching reunion between grandmother and grand daughter seeing it animated. Julie stole the show for me in this episode especially when she was drinking....again.

Elinalise being related to Sylphie totally went over my head, for sole reason I thought Sylphie wanted some lewd advice from herb😂 As for Ariel, I actually felt like she was manipulating Rudeus into going along with Sylphie once Ariel head back to Asura, but I guess it's because I really hadn't empathise with her, for me she's still a princess playing the Game Of Thrones.

Imagine if an archeologist were to discover Rudy's shrine far in the future and thinks they discovered some long forgotten religion, but it's just Rudy's one man cult 😂

It seems odd that Elinalise's children wouldn't be so numerous that they would form their own power base in this world, making ostracism a bit dangerous for people.

I think they really missed a significant part by not adding Ariels gifts. Considering how valuable it is, and how big of an impact it was for rudeus for soo long.

Saving the budget for the volume 12 content

Finally a channel where the guy going through the scenes is genuine and not trying to put on a show. It felt more like a podcast and was super chill 👌

It's an absolutely WTF gift in the webnovel, given the what happens between Ariel and Sylphiette before they come to trust each other in that verison.

I love Sylphy and elise is even more of a good girl seeing how much she cares for her. Elves in this series are special I love them all lol

Enjoying your review as always!

You obviously do love this series, good for you keep it up!

Thanks for the video. Nice work.

A fur vest full of fleas. Remember that guys.

The manga does an excellent job on that Elinalise scene, I really loved that scene when reading it, I think you would have liked it in the manga, it shows her grabbing at him like you wanted and the great emotion on Elinalise.

It's hard being anime only, but it's worth it for episodes like this. Even when I find out they skipped things, it was still such a surprise lol.

Great video! (Definitely finished watching it)

I always love these episodes

13:22 This needs to be a figure on my shelf!

I think as a competitor for the throne, Ariel should have stronger people around her, couldn't she just pay some strong warriors to he by her side?

Give Julie some chips! And headpats too of course

The shot was with Sylphy's parents, it shows that Sylphy's father is blond in episode 3 of season 1, it was said that he is a half-elf. Sylphy brought Lilia's amulet as a gift to Rudeus for his 10th birthday, she said that she made the amulet like her father's in episode 8 of season 1. When Elinalise saw Rudes's amulet, she took out hers and it was clear that they were similar in episode 4 of season 2

Tbh I don't even remember Ariel's wedding gift, the thing I noticed is that they did not mentioned that Rudy was ok with Nanahoshi spoiling beans but left it for her to decide.

Rudy was trying to snap Elinalise out of her panic but riling her up about Paul.

Even with skipped content, it's still a decent adaption. There are definitely some things I wish they left in, like some of the extra stories at the end of the novels. I'm guessing we'll get another Zero Episode or OVA for the next season. I just hope they don't make Roxy as emo as she is in the LN. Sylphie will always be best girl IMO.

17:16 Doing research together in a room, exploring something magical. Rudy provides Nanahoshi the "mana" she needs, to summon a person into this world 😏 I remember Zenith summoned Rudeus into this world as well

I think any of us that have read the novel or at least I've gotten to that part either by listening to it or reading it wish that they had included that I mean it's so appropriate.

Was wait for this episode, Elinalise crying was so good how they portrayed it

16:38 I feel like there could be some hidden meaning to her reply. She 'misunderstood' because she thought she'd met a comrade who understood her actions and desires, but in reality Rudeus isn't really 'from' that world anymore because he has embraced this new world.

Rudi legit building the triforce of sacred wifu relics in that basement xD

The light novel always seems to show a better desperation of the characters. There is more emotion in the novel. Ugly crying is what i call it. Because whenever someone ugly cries it is actually so much more impactful in the novel. And there is so much more meaning behind it. There are so many layers that the anime just skips.

Defo a very emotional moment with Elinalise. Cried while reading it.

they could easily include her gift in the next episode or two

Luke is actually one of the best intel gatherer for Ariels group. He flirts with women to get information from them. From daughters of nobles to average students.

They also skipped the little hint of Badigadi's apostlehood to hitogami

Wish I read ahead honestly, I would kill to get Roxy and Eris's reaction to Sylphy and each other at the first meeting of all three.

Cliff is a real man for being so small and young he still has himself together.

I am happy about the 2nd cour has started but I hate that they cut scenes or change some wordings. There is some hope when the next season with Eris and her time at the sword King dojo then the reunion with some tension.

It's kind of sad how much content gets skipped to make sure they can cover the specific amount of content they want in the story timeline, but videos like these are pretty nice since they fill in the blanks.

just badigadi being badigadi 🤣🤣

bruu just got in to this and start to realize the amount of cut content is crazy just make me so sad man. like WTF i am missing out all the funny shit

my head is spinning from reading and listening to the light novels over the variations on translations even across the anime seasons. i.e. is the term beastkin, beast race, beast folk, or was there single term?

i kind of hope we learn what kind of beast folk silphie mom is

I felt like they really missed the Lisa moment

Seller's IQ: oh your name is Greyrat? Take this jacket from lucky rat

Princess tried to assault the bride with the present

Was it ever explained where Elinalise got her curse from? Also I heard or read many months ago that a product of Elinalise's sexual encounters was the creation of Mana stones or something similar that she sells. Can someone confirm this.

If more elves were like Annalise they might still be around

I don’t know why they don’t have a decent budget for the series when the studio was created just to do the series I thought

His first encounter with nanahoshi didn't rudeas admit he has memory of his past life

anything to save budget.

U mentioned they skipped Ariel gifting Aphrodisiac but didn’t Luke gift them that last season if I remember correctly

27:01 I actually took that scene completely differently, I took it to mean that because Rudy has been training with Eris, Ghislaine, Ruijerd, and fighting extremely difficult people like Orsted, all of which are the best in the world, that he doesn’t realise just how good he is, and overestimates other people. Luke is probably still above average for someone his age. And Laplace didn’t have battle aura, so extremely powerful people don’t all have it. I just think Rudy underestimates himself haha.

elinalise broke me

The anime is fantastic!!! Skipped content is alright 😊

i'm a anime wacher.... i'm still puzeld how much an alf is pregmant and what elinalise do when happen..... i will find uot sometime?

I kind of wonder how Ariel ends up becoming the queen in any way. Does she end up killing all of her brothers and sisters to become Queen or how does that happen cuz I seriously doubt even if she just killed the brother who was trying to kill her that the rest of her siblings would submit to her since they hated her just as much

27:54 haha rudy> Swordsman Advanced level. Considering that intermediate is the world average... Luke isn't horrible, he's just ordinary. Plus I thought the word choice "Master swordsman" was funny, After all, it's not like Eris or anyone else are sages and gods... They're just practically from kendo which is called swordsmanship... Rudeus doesn't have touki, End. Good review

Oh I am not happy, they cut so much, uurrghh

As a follow-up, I hope it gets a season 3. However if you read the light novels you can probably guess where the season is ending.

I can NOT BELIEVE they left out the shrine!!! It MUST be in the next episode or teo. My religion matters, damn it! Hail Roxy! Hail Eris!

did the light novel happen to mention how much did Rudy's robes cost?

I'll be honest, yes quality has dropped, but what you imagined while reading is not the same as what others have imagined

It's funny that Rudeus wants her to do school girl cosplay even though she is, in fact, an actual school girl.

Do most people in the novel know about Nanohoshi being from another world? or did Sylphie just over hear Nanohoshi?

I thought it was a really good and emotional celebration episode. I'm looking forward to the next episode.

I wish we could find out how many kids Annalise has had

Julie eating potato chips with Nanahoshi, Linia & Purse a arriving 1st with their gift, the slowness of Luke during the mock duel.. I have a feeling this 2nd part to S2 is just rushing to reach volume 12's end. Sorry, anime only fans of the show, but, you're gonna miss out on Hella story, plot, character development and probably the awesome world building that Rifujin put in to this series. I'm surprised we haven't even gotten a side episode detailing Eris and what she's up to.

Let's be honest even though Julia is a child she is a dwarf she's Badugadi's little drinking buddy

When I heard "Wedding Reception" as the title, I was thinking the reception that precedes the ceremony, as in same day. I hope they'll rescue Zenith (his mom) before the ceremony so his full family can attend the momentous day. Can't remember if Syphie's folks are still around after the great mana disaster, so.... IF they can be there too. And I love love LOVE the new intro. Stunning visuals and a really attention grabbing composition. Though at the same time.... I kinda miss the format in the first season, the credits playing over montage scenes of the episode, part of a **seamless** storytelling style. Love the new intro while at the same time I wish they returned to the live dynamic opening credits approach from before. Anybody else feel the same? It even occurred to me, that opening intro could be the outro instead to go with the end credits. And yeah, ever since that episode when Nanahoshi is revealed to be from Rudeus's old world (our world), if his true origins might be discovered by EVERYBODY else; Sylphie, his family, the other students, Roxy, Eris, etc... My imagination raced with possibilities, like maybe some elder scholars or sages in the school faculty with heightened magical insight could sense something about Rudeus, Maybe the Demon Queen with her special sight could learn this about him, or maybe even Ruijerd's Third Eye (his gem) could have sensed something different about Rudeus's aura he just couldn't explain at the time, but later information it all falls into place for him. Yeah, I'm really speculating wildly here... I'd love to see if anything more develops on this and especially how it would affect all his relationships.

Waiting for BD Version 😅

This episode has me so SO worried for the rest of the season, there was SO many shots of their faces Looking goofy as hell, really hope they are saving the budget for rest of the season.

I don’t understand why Rudy never told two of his wife’s he was from another world. Only one ever fines out. But you can’t guess who😊

Mushoku Tensei must really be the second best isekai (the first is Juuni Kokuki). A female character that "develops" growing her hair instead of shortening it? Unexpected.

This is why I refuse to read the novel. Once the series is over then I will. Reading the novel will feel like a whole new series. Can’t wait. 😅

are the common blue hair cryin/virtue signaling in their natural habitat(twitter) about julie drinking & rudy being rudy?

I was hoping Rudeus would reverse engineer the aphrodisiac.

Most of this is all skipped in the manga, I haven’t seen any of this.

Wait.... I'd have to go back but I thought Sylphy was a half elf. I could be wrong, I am anime only here. I may be mixing up my anime.

Do you know all the haters that constantly call Rudy a Pea-doh, do they ever call Elinalise that? Because she’s far far older than Rudy, and what age is Cliff, 15? It’s funny that I’ve never seen them talk about her. I don’t have a problem with her, I’m just saying you’d think these people would also have an issue with her if their beliefs were consistent.

i've recently started reading the light novel, they made Ariel and Luke kinda worst than the anime. Kinda amazed how much they like talking about sex. Now whenever i see her and Luke, i just make a them with a "eww" look

I get Elise doesn't want to be Paul's daughter in law but somewhere along the way I think she misunderstood that sleeping with Paul's kid doesn't equal marriage. Unless it's an elf I missed

It is kind of criminal how much content they have been cutting but, as you said, after S2 P1 it is kind of expected at this point. I'm watching the episodes as a fan of the series and to support the project, but it has been soul-crushing witnessing the adaptation going down like this. *POTENTIAL SPOILERS AHEAD BUT NOT REALLY* I can safely say you are better of just reading the novels (hell even the manga skips less), as they are skipping a lot of build up and just adapting critical scenes (as the Doll and the Elinalise ones) and it just doesn't hit at all. As a rule of thumb for many years now I have been avoiding watching the openings and endings of all adaptations coming from well established franchises as they tend to spoil things. This is very true for this S2 P2 of Mushoku Tensei, if you haven't paid any attention or have been skipping them... and want to be surprised as an anime-only fan, continue doing so as they spoil the hell out of the season. Reading the novels, it was really a surprise to see Rudy's sisters arrive to live with him. For example, if the way I got that plot point was because of the stupid opening I would have felt beyond robed (and that is just one of many things the damn opening spoils). If you are sullied, it is what it is... I went in to read the novels because I was spoiled of the last turning point so I can feel your pain. Based on what I see in the opening, they are going to *CUT A LOT* of content as they are clearly aiming to end at a pretty specific moment (which is a pretty nasty cliffhanger which most likely will break the patience of many... or worse rush things even more). Your boy Rudy is going to cross a desert and a couple cities in like 1 or 2 background scenes... I'm calling it right now =S

The character I hate most in Mushoku Tensei is Immortal Demon King Badi Gadi SPOILERS HE IS THE DING DANG REASON THAT DEMON-DRAGON KING LAPLACE WAS SPLIT INTO DEMON GOD LAPLACE AND TECHUNIQUIE GOD LAPLACE LAPLACE IS THE GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAT

I really hope the staff and the animation director whoever it is take their time to when in season 3. so much payoff action and world building happens in those volumes
