I know I'm late to the party, but dropped as well now. Just got to the part where he fvcks Roxy. Like really? You're grieving because you lost your dad, and your mom has no memory. I get it. But do you really think you're the only person who ever lost their family? He's really acting like someone with main character syndrome... And on top of that he basically uses it as an excuse to do it with Roxy. What bullshit. Who would even think of sex in such a time of grief? "A great way to help men get over things"? The author must be pretty depraved.
And then I read this post. Apparently what I've seen in the manga was still only the tip of the iceberg... I liked this manga in the beginning. I thought Rudy to mostly just be a deeply flawed but well meaning person who would improve over time. But no, he's a perverted piece of shit. And the only thing keeping him on the good side are the women around him. And if you only remain "good" because of other people, you're not really a good person. You're just wearing a mask.
I’m so glad I saw that “spoiler” post about him being a disgusting human being even before reincarnating. I was honestly looking forward to watching it at first but knowing that made my stomach turn. I am judging everyone who watches or watched it. There’s nothing salvageable with Rudeus he is a fucking piece of shit through and through. No one can ever convince me that there’s depth to the story or whatever bullshit they convince themselves to continue watching it.
I wouldn't go as far as saying he's a COMPLETE piece of trash. After all, he does try to save people, and wishes the people he's close to to have a good and peaceful life. Plus he's generally nice to the people he encounters. So there's at least SOME good in him...
But it certainly isn't even close to being the majority of what makes him, him... Most of him is being a piece of shit.
Idk. I think he’s one depression away from being a human garbage. I know kental illness is no joke but he raped a shit ton of women even that slave he bought to help. I see no redeeming qualities to that kind of MC. I’m sorry. My opinion may sound so negative of him but I just truly hate that kind of anime, it’s not even the polygamy that is infuriating. That I can accept, but really? Your wife is at home pregnant and you fuck another woman in the excuse that you are grieving? Wth. There’s a lot of negative things about the manga that I can’t just overlook just because he has a bit of goodness in him.
Even before he reincarnated. Didn’t attend his parent’s funeral to jerk off. Him spying on his niece and jerking off to that. He’s a pedo.
And you said so yourself that if the only thing keeping you from not doing bad things are the people around you then you’re not really a good person. Sorry, MT really brings out a lot of anger in me
I checked the novel coz i really liked season 1 of the anime and the manga is far behind from the anime and the novel now.. i have to say, season 2 going forward sucks. I actually stopped watching and checking the manga for a very long while and i was bored w no new anime to watch so i checked the most recent anime update and i was shocked to know Paul died and Zenith disabled..
Paul was scum but i already know Rudeus was worse after he switched to Sylphy in season 2.. but i was curious to know why things happened like that so i checked the novel.. Rudeus... hah~ this fvcker is absolutely trash. As if whatever kinda justification would ever fix this fvcker. Fvck. I already hated it so much because no way in hell does he deserve Eris, he promised loyalty to Sylphy and violently fvcked Roxy while Sylphy was pregnant. I thought i was gonna hurl. I couldnt even read everything i jumped every now and then.. i just wanted to know how it ends and how this fvcker even go back with Eris.
The ending was great, good for them.. but seriously, they should have ended everything w just Eris and had friendly relations w the rest. I just felt like it was inappropriate w Roxy and it was forced w Sylphy.. how did they try to justify this fvckery? He has to have lotsa children to team up w Orstead and beat the Hitogami, so he needed 3 wives w 2 children each, Hah! Thats how i understood it, to be honest.
I really hated the fact that he had ED coz Eris left, i understand lack of proper communication and distance was a big player here but Eris left a letter for him and if he wanted to clear things up, he had the choice to go after her or maybe used rational thinking as a 40+ y.o adult at that point, but yea.. who am i to judge, hischaracter was made to be a perverted middle aged man with very weak mental health but make him OP and give him God level enemies so whatever he do as consequences to his great burden becomes redeemable, just because he's the main character. Fvck (╬￣皿￣)凸
There was even a part in the novel where his future self went back to time to warn him from making mistakes and left a diary.. hah! What did u expect? His future self wallows in depression and self pity pagain for the nth time and went around raping women! Yes! He really did that HAHAHAHA wow.. how awesome.. as if that wasnt worse enough, his kid with Sylphy was neglected and he made a ranking list of the women he slept around with depending of how good they were, disgusting! Most of them were raped btw and he even included Julie, the same Julie that he bought as a dwarf slave to be cared for and trained to be a magician and a figurine maker, yes.. that kid we saw on the anime season 2 academy arc.. that kid they raised to help make figurines.. the fvcking pig raveged that kid helplessly w the excuse that she's their slave and they saved her.. sick! Even if it was his future self that did that.. to think that as a human, he would go that far.. i know depression can make monsters out of us.. i know.. i have it! But this man was just animal. There's a limit. There should be! I remeber the other MC from Re:Zero, Subaru, i dont know if many people have seen that, but that guy went through a lot too! Depression, isolation, he was a hopeless man too! He wasnt even 34 yrs old when he died, he was a kid and he had no OP powers after transmigrating, he just died and turned back time which was much more horrible and hard, he had to die many times in terrible ways but it never got to the extent of becoming a rapist sick psycho! But yea.. who am i to compare.. Rudeus was written that way.. he was a digusting motherfvcker that they effortlessly redeemed everytime just because he's the main character.
I am so disgusted by Rudeus that even tho the ending was great, i really could never like the son of a bitch. I came here after going trough the novel and skipping some chapters because it makes me sick that a fvcker like that is acting all heroic and the people around him puts him up in a pedestal and celebrates him. Hah! I was really about to lose it when he almost fvcked that cat girl because Sylphy and Roxy was on their period and Eris was pregnant. He considered doing it! Hah! If he went through with it even after Eris consented, i would probably smash my phone to powder.
Anyways.. if someone actually took time to read all this.. i dont know if we are of the same mind here, but seriously, if you think everything is fine because Rudeus is this or that.. and his wives said this or that.. you have been completely manipulated to think favorably of him because all his depravity and scum behaviour has been overshadowed by the plot to make him the ever so great hero and saviour. This is full of shit. I am so disappointed and heartbroken that the story went like this when the first season had great potential.. its very disappointing that im so mad.
This was a complte waste of time and you cant say that this was written with the artistic or easthetic sense because it roused emotions of the readers, no! This is a very great example of porn, depravity, violence, and deepest evil of human nature carefully enveloped in a supposedly "plot armor"of isekai and adventure.. if we remove all those aspects and realize whats left.. its complete garbage and nonsense. They didnt even provide concrete reason why Orstead was trying to off Hitogami, why Hitogami has no memory of why Orstead hated him.. who reincarnated Rudeus, why that girl japanese student was transmigrated, and a lot more. These were the real "plot developer" of the story but in the end even Orstead didnt destroy the world after sealing Hitogami.
See? Nothing! There was nothing. Everything was just about a perverted dude that was jacking off while his parents funeral was happening, and got hit by a truck to be reincarnated w OP powers and had his ways with girls and being celebrated as a hero after defeating the main enemy's lackeys. Btw, that same enemy was trying to save the world from being destroyed by Orstead and Rudeus wants to live a great fulfilling life while having sexy time w his wives so he was trying to off Orstead for his goal of peace but couldnt beat him so joined Orstead instead to beat Hitogami, the one trying to save the world. Does that seem to be a very great story? Awesome.
Anyway. Im just here to unleash my wrath. Its a first for me to berate something im reading so much but i am just so disappointed w this. Fvck!
