I'm surprised no one questioned why Fitz (The boy) got to hold Ariel's Pantsu. It's like everyone was fine with "him" taking care of it. lol

It feels like so much has happened this season up to this episode and it's only Ep 5. That said, Rudy finally gets to Ranoa after all this time and meets a certain someone he was looking for without realizing it.

I just realized Rudeus got OP and ED NOW, just like this Anime itself LMAO

Damn Rudeus noticed the staff for a second, i'm sure he will bring it up in the conversation later on.

Hey Cliff from the OVA.
Mushoku Tensei respect your intelligent by not showing any flashback whatsoever, i'm sure in other anime they will show it to you.

Okay I've been watching anime for a long time yeah, but this little, "teehee oshienai/naisho" game has always bugged the ever living crap out of me. Like o -o IRL haha you don't remember me, I'll play along for like 5 minutes maybe ya know, a realistic amount of time. Then I'll slap ya with the, "HAHA but it was me your childhood friend DIO all along". And I swear it's always the girls doing this shit too like... yall play too much bro we're at the end of the episode and yall met up round the start. 8hrs sometimes maybe even 3days have passed in the anime at this point and you're like teehee not telling.

Maybe I just have brain damage and don't remember. Maybe I just suppress the memory whenever it happens, but if my memory serves, the reason for withholding the fact they know each other is almost always just like... bruh why? 7/8 times out of 10 it's for no significantly good reason. And the only good reasons are for like clandestine timing purposes, protection purposes, and third being only if you have a damn good personal/emotional reason, and I mean it better be a damn good reason so god help me.

idk I could just be dumb. This is just how that whole charade makes me feel, never liked that. Feels like bad writing imo, but maybe it's not I guess cause it elicits enough of an emotional response for me that I feel inclined to type all this crap out and ask for peer validation.

plz someone explain the significance of this little trope, charade, thing.(anime only btw)

I totally thought Sylphie was going to tell him who she was! In that last scene, right at the moment she turned around. But instead, she said she won't tell. But he has some clues. So I guess he has to figure it out, and we probably have to wait the whole arc for him to do so. He better do so. Regardless of any romantic element to their relationship or not, it would be a shame for these long-lost childhood friends to come so close but not reunite. They were supposed to go to magic school together anyway. As it currently stands, they're there together, but they're really not.

Speaking of a romantic element, I've had a hard time choosing between Sylphie and Eris from the very beginning. Rudeus's life and circumstances seemed to lead him to Eris, and I had come to terms with that. But now it's leading him back! Ugh, this is hard.

1. She is scared if Rudeus forgot her after all these years (it has been 8+ years since they saw each other), so she lacks courage to reveal who she really is just yet for the time being. This is the main reason.
2. She is playing a role to be Ariel's bodyguard and for the time being, hasn't revealed who she really is to anyone else but Luke and Ariel. Everyone else in the uni sees and thinks of her as a male only due to her wearing men's clothing and just being referred to one by luke and ariel.

Man I'm so sad 😭.

It is doing me what OPM season 2 has done to me. The animation isn't bad, far from that, but it isn't as pristine as season 1's. Like, in the 1st season there were so much movement! Even 2 people talking to each other had such life. Now it just feels like every other mid anime with the mouth 'juggle' and only the fight scene being polished.

The OP isn't bad but it is so generic! I fricking loved what they did in the previous season.

5 episodes in and I'm now just waiting for it to end so I can give it a vote...
Season 1 had benefitted from much more production time and had way more staff members and freelancers dedicated to that season so the downgrade was bound to happen. I still feel like it captures conversations pretty well this season and the background art at least looks fantastic and combined with the music, makes it immersive as well regardless. But yeah, a downgrade in animation was realistic considering the situation (and they had less time for s2 too). At least there is a 6 month wait for the 2nd cour.

The opening fits show and the mood Rudeus is going through well tho without just having a generic hype song (even some nice symbolism with the birds are there), there ain't any adventuring rn so maybe there is a standard opening because of that. Would get repetitive just exploring the uni 10-15 times with similar shots. In S1, the most Rudeus stayed in the same location was like 4 episodes so this might be too long. Think they might return to their main opening style whenever Rudeus has to adventure around again

You have the right to your opinion as I have to mine. We'll see how this plays out, but if they keep at this "going to school" theme for any length of time, am dropping it.
it's not an opinion though you are literally wrong. The whole reason he went there is to 1 study information on the teleportation disaster 2 fix his ED 3 Learn more magic. In this episode itself they explain that he basically can do w.e he wants there.  Also from what I remember from reading the Ln this whole  season will be him at school so might as well drop it now.
That's not encouraging thing then. Lets hope it doesn't end up being boring. School setting is mostly annoying because studios try to get kids to empathize that way and it's a cheap trick which gets annoying fast. Hopefully here that's not the case. Whole show is adult targeted anyway.

Do you know which scene in particular? Since the subs I saw were fine in that regard. Saw everything with Fitz referred to as 'him'.

It’s at about 12:50 into the episode he just got introduced to Cliff and Zanoba says “that only leaves MISS Silent” (Fitz) and then proceeds to say “she” and “her” until the end of the conversation. Though it isn’t the fault of the subs because I just listened to it again in Japanese and they do a great job avoiding gender specific words until Zanoba says “kanojo” (the closest to the 3rd person “she”) so it’s an issue with the original dialogue

If you people want to have a blast, look up “mushoku tensei family tree” and see what a Greek-mythology-worthy mess of a tree they have… I reckon this is the Alabama of isekai. Tho a fair warning that would spoil you the relationships between the characters

That's a completely different person, the student is named Silent and she's a woman, more will be elaborated on that later. It's not the same as Fitz who is nicknamed as Silent Fitz. You'll meet her pretty soon in a few episodes.

I know that some don't care for the university/school part being there in this isekai series but I actually love this. Not just that he remembers to enroll in the academy and fulfill what he was aiming for when Rudeus was younger, but also to get the school life he never had in his previous life since that ended with him being bullied, traumatized and ostracized by society and led to the scumbag he ended up being in his original life. It's a chance for him to make up some ground with this current life he has gained and move forward from there.

Imo (SPOILERS), from a person who didn't read the novel the anime is sort of messy. This anime is a literal joke lmao Rudeus has this weird ass curse which makes it so that he can't become hard? What? And then this god tells him to literally go to this school in ep 5 and the curse will go away. It also feels like the paste of this anime is going a little too fast because first we left off with Rudeus joining a random party and 2 ep later he leaves it?? ok...

In the original web novels, Rudeus joining Counter Arrow and leaving it didn't even happen, it was condensed to mainly journeying with Soldat for a year and then he just met Elinalise. The Counter Arrow party was just for 1 volume so it was meant to be pretty brief only, like being in a transition phase when this stuff was added to the light novels as Volume 7. Rudeus was also just collaborating with them from time to time, was never an official member and after what happened with Sara, probably would never be one.

And its not a curse, more of just a psychological thing which Rudeus has to overcome where there aren't any quickfire solutions and potions there to potentially help him. Man-God's direction for him to go to school to cure his ED is something to help him mentally more than just the physical thing with his erection issues.

Been 8 years since he saw her so she grew up a lot during that time. Different hair color completely, Fitz is wearing men's clothing and others in the university address Fitz as a male, voice is much more mature compared to when he saw her, etc. While Sylphie's appearance changed a lot, Rudeus' face looks the same, just with his hair being longer now and he's more buff, but still recognizable.

Nah... Sylphy, what the hell? Why didn't you just tell MC who you are? Even Rudeus himself told you he was looking for his lost childhood friend so it's not like he forgot about you. Ugh...

So... why is Elinalise part of this arc again? Is her character gonna be relevant or is she just here to let us know of her newfound lust for teens? In any case, those kids better use some protection if they really wanna have something to do with that walking nest of STDs.

3/5 episode. Miles better from what we have had in the season so far but still nothing to write home about. Proper new OP after four episodes was okay and ED gives off so many "Fantasy High-School Romance" vibes it's not even funny anymore.

I feel like people are really underestimating just how unobservant Rudeus is. "Why doesn't he put two and two together and figure out Fitz is the childhood friend he's been looking for? The hints are all there!" your honour he's stoopid. /j

Really though, he's got a lot of other things on his mind, and it's not hard to look at the hints and go "huh, what an odd coincidence" when there's really no reason to put two and two together. Another student who can use silent casting, has a wand that looks familiar, and is an elf? All very interesting things, but only telling if you're actually looking for clues. Why would he think to go "oh yes this is Slyphie" when he has literally no reason to think she'd be there at the school in disguise as a princess's male bodyguard? It's literally the Clark Kent disguise: it's more than just the glasses; who's going to assume the mild-mannered reporter hick is actually Superman even if they look similar? Everyone knows Superman lives in the Fortress of Solitude in the Arctic and goes around saving the world for a living, why would you think to look for him at the Daily Planet?

So the time has come, Rudy has finally made it to the university!
Not sure how good of an idea it was to let Elinalise follow him along inside, but nothing crazy seems to have happened.
The other special students seem to be quite the characters...
Fitz seems to not be revealing their true identity to Rudy yet, guess since he's just arrived it makes sense.

The University Arc has started. Rudeus makes to the Uni and also meets Jenius there, a teacher that works there. Jenius gives his explanation and wants Rudeus to give an demonstration and to be honest i didn't see this coming, he is giving an demonstration against Sylph.

Well Rudeus life as an school student has officially begun after hearing from Ariel and some other people. Zanoba is back in the picture and he seems very happy to see his master again. Rudeus also meets some other classmates. Rudeus comes across Sylph again in the library, where he tries to discover the mass teleportation. Oh he got caught as an panties thief, yikes, but luckily Sylph makes the misunderstanding clear. I think that Sylph waits for Rudeus to discover who she is.
