| The thing I will complain about this episode was the fight with Paul, they shortened and removed the dialogue/reasoning parts that were cool for me. Controversy gone, next! Can't wait for next ep that will start the real action! ;) Glordit said: The manga is seriously lacking in content and detail. Even with manga only, it was quite clear so it's just him not getting it. Actar said: I've always found this to be a rather fascinating thought experiment. So, is it okay for Rudy, in a 7-year-old's body, be lusting over 40-year-old women? If a 40-year-old woman were to have sex with him, would that be okay? Will she be prioritizing his mental age above his physical age? Must Rudy wait until his body catches up to his mental age for him to be in the clear? But will it ever? I mean, he'll be mentally 80 when he's physically 40. Hm... Obviously the only age that matters is the body one. Rarkis said: This is his new life and I think it would be normal for him to be influenced by his new body, new circunstances and eventually have relationships with people of the same age. What tastes bad is how he states that he is (and feels, and thinks) mentally 40 yo and that a infant is already cute (attractive connotation). It wouldn't be as remarcable if the scene hadn't pulled attention to these things. He is influenced by his body yes, but he didn't lose his memory, you can't really blame him for being convinced about being 40. After all his consciuosness is 40. Rudy is a perverted piece of trash who is also grooming his only friend. Ahh yes, a child grooming another child lol. |
| bruh |
| No OP again, was expecting them to use it for the birth of Aisha and Norn, but oh well, they certainly looked cute. For those despairing, even if Roxy is not with Rudeous any longer, you still get scenes of her, here and there, going forward, that is how it is going to be for both of them until one day... keep watching or go read. xD Fantastic fight, with fights like those, you really need time to animate. Dare to imagine what they will do for some of the most spectacular fights ahead. Winter_Fox said: I hope next episode we will get out from this 4 streak s*x episodes and explore the world outside, i truly wanna see the true potential of this series. Very looking forward to the next episode, should show a lot of people who the best girl actually is~~ Predict people will overreact quite a bit. |
 |
| So far, this is probably the most down to earth isekai you'd see out there. This would probably be the most likely scenario were you to get transported into another world someday and that fact makes it unique. Personally, I do enjoy action filled and where most people would call them 'generic' isekais but I seem to be enjoying this a lot too as it progresses probably due to how interesting and unique it is. Looking forward to more. |

| Damn, this episode took a bit of a surprising turn. Where's Maury Povich when you need him. |

EvilSociopath323 said: However Rudeus fantasizing about rising Silphy into his perfect woman was a recognized character flaw. That's why Paulo decided to separate them (in the WN explicitly). Silphy needs to learn to stand on her own to legs. Did Rudy tell about his fantasy to his father? It was just an inner monologue in the anime. Didn't Rudy go for a job? EvilSociopath323 said: Also loud sex in a family house is not unusual even if inconsiderate. I live in a flat with thin walls and I did quite a few times hear certain things from my neighbors. Did you enjoy it? did you ask them to be louder? Are those neighbors your parents? Knowingly screaming at the top of your lungs while you have a child and worker in the house is just disrespectful to both of them. EvilSociopath323 said: Getting caught masturbating (aside from at public places ofc) is at most embarrassing. MT uses these things for fanservice and comic relief, which definitely is not everyone's cup of tea. I said nothing about masturbation in your private space. But in the hallway?! Distasteful and unneeded at that point. |
sangwiny said: Father: cheater and rapist Son: grooming a 7 year old girl It looks like the finale of "biggest piece of shit" contest I was so uncomfortable when I heard Rudy saying "turn her into my ideal women" what? I know they toned down the piece of shit Rudy actually was/is in the novel but how can so many people look at this line and find it just "pervy" and not seriously creepy. |

heitoo said: That's true for literally any LN adaptation, at least if we're talking about decently written ones. Manga can translate well into anime because it's basically already a screenplay, actual novels do not. UPD: The truth is, this adaptation is already much better than most readers anticipated. Back when this was announced, the usual reaction was "hm, cool, but isn't it impossible to adapt MT well since it's that long and most of it is internal monologues?". It really isn't. This is some make believe that has somehow manifested itself in the western community. If it was primarily an advertisement in this day and age then the committees wouldn't look the way they do. If advertising is all you want to do there are far more avenues to go through that do not involve an anime adaption which has been characteristic for years now to have a widespread net of income streams. |
EvilSociopath323 said: No, but Paul did see that she was completely depending on Rudy and that Rudy is more intelligent than her. She would be far too easily influenced by Rudy and unable to have an independent opinion. That was clear even to Paul. If he wanted just a job for Rudy there was no need to separate them. Then it has nothing to do with "sculpting a perfect woman". EvilSociopath323 said: Everything in a family house is private space (and yes, Roxy and Lilia were considered as part of family). Again, any sane person would just go watch porn, alas they did not have that back in the medieval ages. What are you talking about? Are you really justifying masturbating in a hallway where everyone could just walk into you? EvilSociopath323 said: They are part of the storytelling. Doesn't change what I said/my point. Shows like Battle Star Galactica, Westworld, GoT, well any HBO show really are distastful and unneeded at that point too. Those shows don't have a 13+ rating and are normalizing that stuff as this show does. |
| I feel like this show so far is its own worse enemy. On the one hand, it definitely has a strong hook, good production values, and flashes of brilliance. However, the way that this show has just been handing its themes regarding sexuality has been distasteful at best and uncomfortable at worse. I get Rudy is trying to redeem himself from what he once was, but the way it handles its humour seems like it's from a completely different show. It's offputting. Now we have a character like Paul who is essentially in the same shoes, but the show just doesn't seem to want to respect the gravity of the situations it puts its characters in. I think that's where the criticisms of this show just being extremely horny and nothing else comes from. The majority of the "development" has been shallow and disingenuous and I hope it can start to improve from this point forward |

Not only that the anime itself does not tell you what he actually did in his past life and trys to pretend he was just a "perv" and an innocent shut in which is just a lie. If you already dont know and dont mind being spoiled click the button below its the truth about that scene on episode 2 and after reading that spoiler tell me what you think about one of the things the MC says in that very same episode which is something along the lines of "what is the problem if I am like this" which seems like an innocent line because the anime hides the true disgusting context behind. |

If it was primarily an advertisement in this day and age then the committees wouldn't look the way they do. It doesn't matter what the committee objective is as long as any observant viewer feels disadvantaged by not reading the source material. Most anime adaptation just go through the motions (e.g. we need to show event A, B, C) without actually artistically adapting the story to a new medium. Basically Japanese anime production at scale is about mechanically following manga pages as a screenplay, slapping some hype soundtrack on it and calling it done. Very few works go beyond that. Then compare it to western approach and see how different, for example, Witcher TV series is compared to books and how much creative work goes into adapting the source material beyond just "animating" the events of the novel. It's entirely different creation in its own right. |

EvilSociopath323 said: There are plenty of bad western adaptations. Take The Witcher for example and the crucial final episode titled "something more". The reason I picked Witcher specifically as example is to illustrate how western approach to book adaptations actually involves some creativity. They take a source material and remake it from the ground up for different medium. Japanese approach: take a 300 pages volume, distill it to 60-80 pages picture summary, animate back to back in auto-pilot mode, add a bit of sauce (sauce usually being music and superflous fan service stuff), done. |

| I wasn't surprised at all Paul had an affair. With the "briefs nightly moments" we got to know from the first two episodes I got the picture that he's a full-throttle, for a moment Zenith couldn't kept the rhythm but he had enough stamina to keep going and they kept doing it every night. Also afaik Paul and Lilia had some things in the past, so all I see is that she wanted to have some time with him. Questionable? Of course, he's a married man, but as we say "there has to be two to dance the Tango". Moreover, I'm more concerned about the scene where Rudeus was playing with himself, can we remember how old is him? |
| No tomo malas decisiones, solo me gusta apoyar causas perdidas. Disfruté Mayoiga, Ou-sama Game, Evil or Live, Mirai Nikki, Big Order, Arifureta, Ex-Arm, Tesla Note, Shuumatsu no Harem y Platinum End nope les falle con esa, lo siento pero todos tenemos nuestros límites. Así de jodido es mi gusto en anime, ¡Y estoy pinche orgulloso de ello!  |
| One thing I can say this episode.. I AM SO DISAPPOINTED WITH PAUL. Seriously duck him! I thought he´s this playboy, but loyal to his wife, but no he´s worst. I was so uncomfortable seeing the maid still living with them, I can´t even. I feel really bad for Zenith. I bet she´s crying when she´s alone. What a strong woman! And I hate that maid now too. Paul and her actions are not justifiable. Both of them can choke! Sylphy is so cute this episode. I wonder what will be her reaction when she finds out that Rudy is away from her. I´m gonna cry. She was so precious when she was crying hearing that there´s a probability that Rudy will be away from her—and then it happened. I hope she will not have a change of heart when Rudy comes back and she is still the same girl we love. Nice to see Roxy again. Haha! That lewd student, though. Hahahaha! Glad he got what he deserved. Ugh. So in love with this anime. Just like AOT, every episode felt so fast. ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ |

| I didn't expect Paul to turn out this kind of a person.... Rudy did well guiding the flow the conversation smoothly!!! And Sylphy crying..... That was so moving but it's heartbreaking that Paul sent away Rudy now without even giving him a chance to say goodbye to her!!! Roxy's new student seems even more of a pervert that Rudus XD!!! Anyways, another interesting episode!! |
 |
| You have to hand it to Zenith for sacrificing that fury and also I'm sure many other feelings in order to keep Lilia by their side. Also Lilia normalizing being around young Rudy is so interesting to see considering she knows he's been a horny little heathen since birth. It's interesting how they're doing time skips so suddenly it seems (you kind of can't keep up until they explicitly say it), but you can't tell they've aged well. Specifically, Rudy offering to pay for Slyphiette's tuition; that's lowkey love. But also, I'm genuinely curious, I wonder if Rudy would have willingly gone away if he had put two and two that this was work that he'll get paid for. After all, no one wants to leave Slyphiette, but I'm sure he'll learn a lot. Also, agree with many people above. Boys will be boys theme is kind of... over the top. It adds to the character development a little, but honestly more sexual tension then actual action atm. |
| well that was unexpected from paul. so rudeus left and had no chance to say goodbye to sylphy? man i hope he would able to meet sylphiette first if he's really gone for a long time.. |
 |
| Beginning of episode looked peaceful and happy for few seconds there and then suddenly the storm was approaching hihihi gosh this anime is so entertaining with that kind of surprise with Lilia xD Zenith is scary when mad, and I like how she behaved realistically by being so mad like that instead of easily forgiving Paul like she is an angel. Oh and very nice slap from Zenith, Paul totally deserved it. |

| okay, i see there's a lot of new discussions here and all of it is about Paul's cheating on Zenith. i really liked this series despite the fact that main character is a creepy pervert, i even planned to read light novel, but now, like, ehhhhh really? ok, Paul cheated on his wife - it's an interesting plot, but then everyone is like - okay, who cares. after all we can just behave like before, lol, those two babies don't change anything. Paul is just talking with his little son about perv stuff, Rudy, who is as a matter of fact a 40 old man is creeping out about a little girl (he can't even leave her alone). like literally Paul is saying he's gonna cheat on Zenith again, and Rudy is just like " hehee, but dad, better tie urself down to one of them;))))" gross and what hits me the most is that so many ppl don't see anything wrong with it |
 |
| Never felt so uncomfortable watching an anime. I like the story, despite all the scumbag characters, but does it get better at least? >_> |
 |
| Lmao Paul is the worst, you already have Hot Wife.. fucking Horny... But u can't blame Lilia too, she hearing them having sex everyday... She want the PP 😂 (she is hot as well, damn..) But Damn Ghislaine, only cover the nipples? Interesting Design... So this is the work for Rudeus? |

| Look, it's not my intention to offend fans of any show nor the show themselves. As an anime only I obviously don't know what's next to come but this particular episode was just the worst, the absolute worst. |
| Paul is such an useless man xD |
 |
| Wow! Paul is really a scum! He has a wife and a child yet he was still seduced by their maid, Lilia. I actually thought that Lilia could be a Paul's mistress since this story is kinda messed up, and it actually happened. WTF?! lmao. There are probably lots of men, single men, in their town yet Lilia decided to seduced Paul, that's so wrong. Paul and Lilia committed a huge mistake. Good thing Zenith believed Rudeus, for the child's sake alone. They're now kinda living like a happy family. But, Paul ks still thinking of getting to bed with Lilia. Now that Rudy is not in the house, what if Zenith is also not in the house, there's a huge chance that they will do it again since Paul is a scum. Waaa. Paul is really a strong and skillful swordsman but he's a scum. Argh. lol  |
