@Farabeuf not really. Having a lack of action means nothing if it doesn't build towards a grand narrative. The poll results show this season to be a massive disappointment relative to the hype. This isn't a show where sakuga alone can carry it unlike jjk amd kny. And we haven't had big twists.
@SpiderMiles3523 Your post makes no sense whatsoever. I cannot make head or tail of it. I can see you're very new here. Try again.

@SpiderMiles3523 Poll results are botted lmao. It's been that way with this cour since it started sadly.

I took a screenshot of it when this ep was airing earlier when noticing this and there's no way this was natural lol.

@MangagnaM that makes no sense. How can it have that many 1 star rating. Mods are also doing nothing about the mass 1 star ratings dal v is getting from. What a joke of a site

@SpiderMiles3523 It happened with the actual ratings of shows loads with it being bombed with 1s and 10s (especially whenever shows were close to Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood's rating at the time well before the Frieren anime was a thing), but mal did implement a system for that.

That dont work with polls though from what I know, those are susceptible to bot accounts spamming 1s to skew ratings and make it look bad, especially for a series like MT. It sucks since the episodes this cour have done nothing to deserve what its getting to this degree but cant control it.

@MangagnaM yeah mal is pure shit. Not even japan or r/anime references this site. Tensura season 3 still hasn't fall below an 8 score despite being like the worst anime of the season.

Things are moving on swimmingly, and Norn has become more open with Rudeus to the point where she’s helping him write a book on Ruijerd’s exploits.

Speaking of, it was nice to see his shopping trip with Aisha and how he IMMEDIATELY shut down any chance of sexual interaction. What he did with Eris was enough already (I say this because they are cousins, meaning they are related by blood; I personally believe you shouldn’t engage in a romantic relationship with anyone you consider family, blood or otherwise).

Everyone else is making progress on their goals. And then there’s the big news.

SYLPHIE IS EXPECTING! I’m assuming the “you-know-what” is a period, but I’m not actually sure of that. Regardless, Rudy will be a father and both Aisha and Norn will become aunts.

And then the big news. Zenith’s rescue requires immediate assistance, leaving Rudy with a difficult decision. Either he leaves his new family behind or he abandons his mother. No matter what, regret is inevitable. The Man God does have a point about how most don’t have someone advising them. I wonder why Man God can’t get into specifics whenever he gives advice. But it can’t be refuted that without his advice, Rudy got to cure his condition, rebuild his relationship with his sisters, and reunite with Sylphie due to his advice.

Well, it seems that Norn has made the decision easy, Rudy HAS to go. If he doesn’t, Norn will insist on going herself. In terms of safety, Zanoba will make sure no harm comes to his family.

So… off on another adventure. It seems this series has a tendency of bringing joy to Rudy’s life and then having it immediately taken away with something bad. I know people have been speculating something like this throughout the season, but I didn’t believe it would occur.

@Rukasumi They dont have planes, regular cars? Carts with horses can only take them so far to get to a different continent. Have to traverse through some difficult or exhausting areas that they have to walk through?

Hell the Dead End trio took 2-3 years one-way to go from Demon Continent to Fittoa lol.

Sylphie is pregnant it's time for Rudeus' 1st child!! Too bad they couldn't really celebrate that since the mission to rescue his mother is going badly apparently... so he'll have to leave them and he'll even miss the birth of his 1st child in this case :(

I thought the right choice was obvious from the get go, Zanoba is absolutely right, Rudeus' will be born whether he's there or not. Anyway, when Sylphy announced her pregnancy, for some reason I was reminded of Frieren cause you know they're both elves. She will outlive everyone.

From a logical standpoint it seems weird for Rudy to leave his family for at least one year just when Sylphie is pregnant. On the other hand a little bit of adventure might do good for the story as a whole.

I guess, at least the turning point wasn't force by some BS tornado or mass scale teleportation. It's a decision he had to take. It sucks that the journey to get there alone is a year long. And just like Zanoba put it, children will still grow if they father isn't around and watching.

Could this "Turning Point 3" be one that alters the main "story line" of the World as possibly the main story has Paul and his entourage failing to help and save Zenith without Rudeus help, could it get him into trouble?

Etiher the anime didn't depict this very well, or I forgot what the anime was like.
However, in the novel, the whole chapter was focusing on regrets. Among his acquaintances, Nanahoshi was the last one Rudy met, which means Rudy was under the anticipation that the journey would take 18 months up to 2 years when he bade farewell to other people. When Cliff was made aware of the news, Cliff regretted that he didn't build up enough experience on adventuring that he wasn't able to go alongside Elinalise. When Rinia and Pursena heard the news from Rudy, they thought they may never meet Rudy again because they would have graduated before Rudy returned.

Also Nanahoshi was way more stylish in the novel.

There are so many red flags, I can't even count them all.

The biggest one would be the words Sylphie said about elves' tough childbirth which clearly wasn't meant as red herring and was mentioned for reason.
In other words, in his absence, chances are she will deliver the child but the price would be her own life. That's why Hitogami said he will regret it.

(it's also the only way his relationship with the last girl can ever start)

I was still pretty curious about the part which mentioned cheating with one of catgirls but that would probably only happened if he didn't go on the journey. Or maybe it will still happen in the future.

Still, Hitogami only told him what he needed to hear. I'm prety sure telling him to not go to Begaritt continent had the opposite effect on him and made his decision clear.

Or do you think Hitogami can be his future self guiding him all along?

Oh man, I can't stop thinking Rudy is making a huge mistake by going. The Man-God, despite being sus, has actually been helpful by giving beneficial advice from the beginning all the way to now. There's no reason to start going against his advice now, and actual reason due to his track record to follow his advice. It seems like Norn's guilt trip "I'm going to do it if you're not going to" is going to be his undoing.
