Everyone gaslighting themselves into thinking Rudy merely likes his family in this world. Why would he be so down about a fight with Paul if his relationship with Paul and his family was not hugely important?

2023-04-20 19:20:04 +0000 UTCOne thing that I think reasonably contributes to why Rudy, either from an adult or child perspective, wouldn't consider that much of the Fitoa region was caught up in the Mana Disaster is that Rudy and Eris were basically at ground zero; so they would have no way to know how far the pillar of light would have reached.

2023-04-14 18:09:45 +0000 UTCDef came across as more that Rudy WORRIED would happen than anything else, when he had that fantasy sequence. No perversion Yup Esp with how he acted coming out of it, discouraging Eris from going and trying to secretly get Ruijerd to keep her safe

2023-04-14 05:41:06 +0000 UTCIf a normal 24 minute episode will take an hour of discussion and talk about it, imagine what will happen with Oshi no Ko's first episode... Anna and Ben will have to record for 4 hours lmao. I need to see it.

2023-04-14 05:18:52 +0000 UTCTodays discussion was really good, was super pleased with how much they talked about. I was waiting the entire discussion for Anna to make the connection between the candle and what she said in the discussion and it was soooo good to me when they brought it up. Not important and idk if they already know this or not but goblins in Otaku culture and especially the kind of content Rudy would be inclined to watch are portrayed as vile, malicious and... well, rapey. Might give more context to that scene.

2023-04-14 04:56:25 +0000 UTCThe chance of a letter getting from the Demon Continent to Buena Village might be lower than the chance of winning the lottery. Roxy sent the letter in ep5 6 times iirc and that was from the Shirone Kingdom, she sent the box to him while he was in the Greyrat mansion with an A rank adventuring party to make sure it reached him.

2023-04-14 03:59:22 +0000 UTCIn regards to Rudy's relationship to Paul&Zenith, what one must consider is that the strong parental bond we form with our parents stems in large part due to them being our source of food, shelter, knowledge, and comfort through a large portion of our early development. To a child a parent is like a God, because they are new to this world and can't provide for themselves. Given that Rudy came into this world with a lot of knowledge, and the ability to be self-sufficient as soon as his body grew a few years, he's not going to form the same kind of parental bond as is the norm. Compounding this is that he already had that bond at some point with his parents in his first life, so to him Paul&Zenith are the mother and father of the body he inhabits in his second life, but are not *his* parents. In the end, Rudy puts more value on the bonds he has formed through his chosen interactions, than those compelled by biological imperative, so his first friend in this new world(his first friend in decades) in Sylphie would be more important than Zenith, who while a good mother is not someone he formed a deep connection with.

2023-04-14 03:55:41 +0000 UTCRicky up here told an amazing point to why Rudeus was so careless, and another one is Rudeus is a genius in this world, bcs he was born with his past life memories, but even bein the genius he is he never even managed to scratch paul in combat, it would be so natural for him to assume his father and mother would be okay if he, a child, considerably weaker and not well known (paul and zenith were in an S rank team, it was mentioned in the anime start) managed to survive, bcs he knows they are very strong and capable

2023-04-14 03:18:02 +0000 UTCOne of my favorite episodes of the season, really lets you know the level of writing and character development this show brings

2023-04-14 03:09:21 +0000 UTCSomething worth mentioning When they crossed over from the demon continent to the millis continent was when they had to smuggle ruijerd. so once they arrived at Zantaport be went to collect ruijerd, then got captured by the beast people. So rudy didnt even have a chance to go to the adventurers guild to see the message paul left.

2023-04-14 02:43:49 +0000 UTCIn case people tell you to, do NOT watch the OVA until after the season. People say to watch it because of chronology, but the OVA brings up a term that gets introduced later in Episode 20. There will be much more to discuss about it when you have the context of the rest of the season.
