Light novel readers are fuming that the anime turned Roxy into a rapist (WHICH IS NOT PART OF HER FLAWS) and literally cut the FOCUS of the chapter: Rudeus' grief. They cut a long monologue of Rudeus processing his emotions. Also, the Roxy part was supposed to be framed like a mistake. It wasn't supposed to be rape but both of them trying to save the other in a twisted way. Consent. This accidentmeans that he needs to tell his family that his father is dead, his arm is gone, his mother is mentally gone, and, oh yeah, look, another wife. That's literally the tension after this and idk what they'd do with it now. It is, by far, the worst adaptation of the series. The author also warned us readers in twitter beforehand that he was pressured to agree to do it like this. Studio Bind fucked up

Oh man they skipped a lot of content and even changed the sex scenes in the episode after a perfect adaptation of the last episode. This was supposed to be one of the most emotional and best chapters of the whole series. If you are interested to see the whole Rudy monolog here: How many days passed after that? I had only a vague sense of time. I woke, slept. Woke, slept. Repeated the process countless times. When I slept, my dreams replayed the moment of Paul’s death. I saw him slash at the hydra, saw it swing its neck. Felt him shove me aside, pushing me out of the way. Then watched him move again, watched the hydra move again, but I couldn’t move. Paul kicked me out of the way, and I watched as the hydra’s head came plummeting down in front of me. Then I jolted awake, checked to make sure it was just a dream, and huddled back into bed. I didn’t have the willpower to get up. All I could do was think about Paul. Paul was… He… Sure, okay, he wasn’t a praiseworthy human. He was terrible with women and a total show-off. He was weak in the face of adversity and looked to alcohol for an escape. He hadn’t even bothered to say anything fatherly before we went into battle. By most standards, he was a complete failure as a father. But still, I loved him. It wasn’t quite the same as the parent-and-child love Paul felt for me. To me, Paul was more like a partner in crime. Strictly speaking, I was mentally older, but he had more physical years on me. Even when it came to life experience, he was probably well ahead of me when you considered the decades I’d spent as a shut-in. None of that really mattered. Age was pointless. When I talked to Paul, I felt like the two of us were on an even footing. I couldn’t see him as a father, and I’d probably never really thought of myself as his child. But Paul was different. He’d seen me as his child from the very beginning. Me, who’d been a piece of shit thirty-something recluse on the inside at the time. Me, whose actions thus far had to have been bizarre from an outside perspective. Still, he regarded me as family, never turning his eyes away. There were areas where he failed as a father, but he never faltered in considering me family. Never once did he treat me like a stranger. I was always, always his son. Despite my abnormal abilities, he still saw me as his son. He faced me head-on. He was a father. He always had been. Even as he carried burdens far too heavy for him, he acted as a father and continued to do things for the sake of our family. At the end, he’d even shielded me-used his body, as a father, to protect me. His son. He’d bravely put his life on the line, as if it were the most natural thing in the world. And he died. It was strange. I wasn’t even his child, but Paul was still my father. Paul had two real children. Not fakes like me-actual, honest-to-God, real children. Two sweet, genuine daughters. Norn and Aisha. If he were going to shield anyone, it should’ve been them. Plus, he had two wives, right? He’d spent years desperately searching for one of them-Zenith. The other, Lilia, had been there to support him until then. Two wives and two daughters. Four people in total. What the hell are you doing leaving them behind, huh, Paul? I thought But maybe I was just as important to him, too. Two wives, two daughters and one son. Maybe they were all equally important to him. I’d never seen him as a father, but he’d thought of me as one of the most important people in his life. Ah, fuck. Why, Paul? Give me a break. You said it so many times: “Rudy, I see you as an adult now. I see you as a man.” I got married, bought a house, took guardianship of my sisters-of course I felt like an adult. I came to help you, worked hard in that labyrinth. I saw myself as an adult. You did too, didn’t you? That was why you said what you did at the end, right? “Save her, even if it kills you.” So, explain to me: Why? Why…? Why did you shield me, if I’m an adult? What am I supposed to say to Norn and Aisha when I go home? How am I supposed to explain what happened? What am I supposed to do with Zenith, the way she is now? What am I supposed to do from here on out? Tell me, Paul. You were supposed to decide this, weren’t you? Dammit. Why did you have to go and die? Ah, fuck. At least if I had died, it would be him here anguishing over what to do instead. Or better yet, if neither of us had died, no one would have to suffer. Ah, I can’t do it. Sadness bubbled up with me. I couldn’t stop the tears that came flooding out. In my life-my previous one, that is-I didn’t even cry when my mother and father had died. I hadn’t even felt sad. Now that Paul was dead, the tears came naturally. I was sad. I couldn’t believe it. The one person who had to be here-was supposed to be here-was now gone. Paul was a father. Paul was my father. I’d never thought of him as one, and yet, he was every bit a parent to me as the ones from my previous life. I thought and thought, cried and cried, until I was exhausted

Awww man I wish they kept at least half this. It feels even more short now in the anime with how in depth this goes about Rudy reflecting on his feelings towards Paul and how he tried to understand the way Paul thought of him. I think my favorite line that isn't in the anime from this is "The one person who had to be here is now gone". Thank you for frequently letting me know what the anime skips.

So they cut the scene where Roxy , Elinalise,geese and Talhand were taking about Rudy and how to make him feel better because he was dying due to him not eating at all for days and geese brought that sex make men feel better and asked Elianlise that she should sleep with him but she declined because of Sylphie and clif . But Roxy asks her why and Elinalise told her about Sylphie and their child . Roxy obviously was shocked and feel horrible about how she was hitting on him the whole time . And she didn't pull Rudy into the bed Rudy acutely the one who pulled her into his lap and then she said they can do it so Rudy pushed her onto the bed and was rough with her and when he woke up he felt like he fucked up. And he even told Roxy about his past self like a fiction story . So when Rudy was depressed geese hired adventures and entered the dungeon again because there was a lot of treasure and crystals that would make everyone live for decades. About why Elinalise wanted Roxy happiness because she knew Roxy before Sylphie . And Rudy wouldn't have married Roxy until Elinalise said that she might be pregnant that Rudy was convinced but she was lying about it.

For these kind of changes, its so different I'm actually going to look at the anime as its own canon tbh.

Game is Game lol
