Tbh I do think they're trying to go the more realistic approach, which is weird for an anime imo. But yea most people don't cry when they're depressed they kinda just shut down, so I think this is a more realistic depiction of that depression. We're also not getting any of his inner thoughts so we can only imagine. Or maybe since they do show all that in the manga is like the "the manga readers know so we don't have to show it" I mean that helps people buy the manga after watching the show, so it would make sense too.

I am glad Rudeus overcame his Depression to save Sara. No one deserves to die the way Mirmir did.

@@mariokarter13 Crying comes in many forms. You could be stoic 99% of the time, then 1% of the time break down in an intense crying fit. Considering how important "Dead End" was for Rudy it made complete sense why just that would crack something inside him and make him cry.

Rudy’s depression stems from much deeper than just “Eris doesn’t love me”. To me, it’s further emphasizing his trauma before reincarnation. He was abandoned by everyone in the previous life of his own doing, so when he finally thought he has made things right with Eris, she leaves him without saying a word. Rudy blames himself, thinking that “he will always end up alone for who he is”. Which explains why he’s now more stoic, because the less he opens up to people, the less likely people will end up leaving him

@paledrake

3 ай бұрын

Well yeah. Eris leaving him was just what solidified to him that he was useless and unwanted, because he was so convinced that she liked him or that he at least was someone positive in her eyes. To have that image be flipped upside down, to have his most cherished relationship/bond with someone go from 100 to -100 as someone with that much traumatic baggage is almost a death sentence.

Rudy is definitely one of the most realistic person in isekai anime. He's definitely my favourite.

Honestly, I kind of prefer how the anime did the depression. I've had a similar type of heartbreak when I was younger and it felt very relatable. You just get kind of despondent around others and break down in private over and over again. As an effectively 40 something year old man with decades of depression and disappointment, it makes a lot more sense to me that he wouldn't likely break down in front of others in this type of scenario, especially after having some time away from the inciting incident.

This Arc is so important. I am happy that they adapted it. They did a decent job. Happy when Elinelise my favorite elf comes around ❤.

Very excited for the next episode! Take care of yourself while grinding these out! We're all excited for the next installment.

Rudeus took less time to overcome his past life trauma than his current depression

I know Ruby is very polarizing for a lot of people but its his flaws that make him and this show great. When you have to evolve and grow is when you can get a wonderful journey and that's what we're seeing. If he stayed the same as his old self it would be bland, but to have the resolve to move forward and become a better person is hard.

Fantastic video as always! It was great hearing about Rudy's mental anguish that he was going through and I wish they highlighted it more in the show.

I've been waiting for this video to appear. Looking forward to hearing this breakdoen of cut content. The episode went through the Mushoku Tensei spinoff manga that came out this year in terms of its first four chapters

These videos are always a delight man !

It's important to keep in mind that although Rudy is mentally over 40, this is the first time a girl has ever shown interest in him. He thought he had a second chance to live life to the fullest, and he's just been smacked in the face with the reality he's still the same loser he always was.

​@@justashadow5616 It's not that, this time. She's thinking that if she were to be more clear, then Rudy would figure out where she's going and follow her there. Which, let's be honest, he totally would on both cases and like hell he won't follow Eris. And Rudy's way smarter than the anime portrayed him to be and would've known instantly where she'll go. This is something she didn't want as that would not only stifle his growth but hers as well, as she's pretty certain they'll just spend most of their time having sex rather than training. Eris' problem is that she swung way too much the other way around, thinking he'll understand her intention without giving away her destination by leaving as few words as possible. And quite frankly, she could've been correct in that. Any other time, it would've worked. As I said, Rudy's way smarter than what's shown in the anime. Unfortunately, Rudy's also still pretty darn depressed because of the situation of Fittoa and Sylphy missing. Nowhere near the extent he'll have later, but he's not sitting on that bed because he's being cheery. He's predisposed to thinking negative things. And since he's soaring in the sky before that news hit him, his descent is just that much harder, causing his spiral downwards and making him impossible to actually think through Eris' intention.

I get being sad over Eris I do but you still got important shit to do and the way he acts almost makes me think he doesn't give a fuck about his own family and is too caught up in delusions of making his own. It shows he really doesn't care that much for his family and it shows he really doesn't understand eris at all like he thinks he does. this would of dragged on for multiple episodes so I'm glad they just gave us the spark notes version of his depression adventure. Its pretty easy to read between the lines of his subtle gestures and attitude in the anime to understand his mental state it didn't need to be dragged out forever.

Personally I wish they would have focused on Rudy's emotions and depression because after these few episodes, 3 being the last of the volume, as an anime only ish I expect that he will rebound from depresion at least a bit so all that these episodes will feel like is a shallow pout from Rudeus. Hopefully there is more important elements that get shown in later episodes but I am really worried.

I feel like the lack of waterworks is due to 2 reasons, one being the anime's general portrayal of him being calm and collected, the other simply being animation budget

2:58 Yep. Our boy is truly damaged 😨😨😨😨😨😨

love this series and mushoku tensei alike, the show feels almost incomplete if i dont catch these cut contents

It's getting hard to wait every week because it's just too exciting xD

Honestly I find the dead stares show his mental state better than just breaking down in tears. Its an emotionless broken stare that goes beyond open tears
