This was such a good episode - rudeus's trauma kickin in and sylphie losing control got me on the edge of my seat .

The way they handled the talk in japanese was also done in a great way.

DKaito 2y
Just wanted to post my thread lol. Anyways!

Finally!

Great episode today. Finally one of major twists that have massive impact on whole story.
Some explanations and what's most important - foreshadowing.
Can't wait for more, we are getting closer!

bruh no way rudeus still has not gotten that fitz is sylphie

after what happened I thought there would be a dramatic reveal in the room
- MaesterSilvio 2y
  I think we're close! After what her, Luke, and Ariel discussed, we're setting up for one hell of a dramatic reveal.
  
  Both her and Rudy really deserve to be happy after all they've gone through, and she sure ain't about to cut off her hair, write a terrible note, and run away from him.
- ionface 2y
  I was surprised they had her voiced like that. She's supposed to hide her voice for the disguise ("Silent Fitz"), it's masculine form Japanese, but her voice sounds too feminine.
Taiyox 2y
by far the best episode of the season so far. this was absolutely amazing
LycheeNa 2y
Poor Sylphy man. The equivalent of watching the raws before the subs drop... leaving you confused all throughout. very much relatable.

Overall great episode. I honestly really like these lore dump episodes, felt like 5 mins. Excited to see where it all goes from here.
- MaesterSilvio 2y
  It was so interesting to listen to the discussion, I could have sat there for 2-3x as long listening to that. It'll be curious to see what else Nanahoshi knows, especially with all of this forbidden or powerful knowledge that Orsted may have shared.
  spiiderr 2y
  just started reading the light novel because of this, i want more details
  TheSledge 2y
  Do so at your own peril, heh.... it's awesome, I binged the LNs because it was that good.
GwynXV 2y
Great episode, and great voice acting from both Yumi Uchiyama and Ai Kayano. Both of their reactions felt raw as hell and really heightened the scenes.
Mitikus 2y
Hands down the best episode (so far) in Season 2 for me.
The trasition from japanese to the local language was phenomenal, the huge lore drops made everything much more exciting and the moments full of emotions had me on the edge of my seat. Props to the VAs, amazing job. As an anime only I have really high hopes that the remaining bit of the season will be just as great as what I've seen these past weeks.
- MaesterSilvio 2y
  Man, I was so worried they would do the language switching really poorly, or might not even acknowledge it at all.
  
  I was so wrong, and so glad to be wrong!
Pizza 2y
Truck-kun is the real villain
naturesesh 2y
Damn the contrast between the one who want to stay and the one who wants to leave peak bro
pedrohlc 2y
I had to pause at 19:21, my eyes were sweating. Where's the button to give this episode an 11 out of 10?
- Ryuseishun 2y
  We don't have one, unfortunately. We should've been provided one, though.
SamuraiGinpachi 2y
They really teased badigadi in the end of previous episode only to give him zero screentime in the next ep
- Cilqnx 2y
  ??? Tbf hes only a minor character, that entire sequence was just to show that he enrolled not that he would play some major part next episode.
- Bogatear 2y
  You'll see more of him in the second part of the season, but he is more of a comedy relief character at this point in the story. Even in the light novels there isn't enough of him in my opinion. But he is a very-very important character in the lore.
- AnotherUser372 2y
  yesss i wish they'd shown his backstory a bit. hopefully it will be in a later ova or smt
LightningBlaze 2y
Finally some progression to the storyline. It really feels like we are getting somewhere with the story. Can't wait for what's to come!!
MrScopes 2y
peak
Kikyuu 2y
hope we finally get the Sylphie reveal next episode
- Cilqnx 2y
  Assuming they don't skip stuff it'll most likely be the last episode of the season.
- Bogatear 2y
  I really hope they won't squeeze it all into a single episode. The reveal is my personal favourite part of the entire story.
1Yuno1 2y
Great episode again, we just can't stop winning!
Namaryu 2y
Damn they zoomed on Greyrat. The real PTSD. If you know you know. Amazing episode. Nanahoshi was so adorable.
Toxicphantom 2y
This episode was completely insanity.
Since ep 7 watching Zanoba cry I knew they would nail this episode with the expressiveness. Watching Rudy running while screaming was absolutely terrifying. Sylphiette's Va did her part flawlessly too.
Music was on point too the OST was truly amazing.

Can't express how perfect this episode was from the beginning to the end. They gotta stop delivering 5 minute episodes each week because it's fucking torturous having to wait all this time for such a short time :]

100000000/10
Hyliaforce 2y
Anyone else forget who the girl was until Rudeus had that panic attack or was it just me? That scene was great, the way he was running and screaming was really well done and it was surprising when Sylphie suddenly attacked her out of nowhere. Great stuff
- Paizurin 2y
  same, happens when you gotta wait for new seasons. They managed pretty well though.
- haeryngrqfgevat 2y
  i've just been waiting for her to pop back up while also not expecting it to be this season at all
  laughed my ass off when "sevenstar" was mentioned
- Bogatear 2y
  A flashback of her standing next to Orsted would have helped, I don't think anyone could be blamed for forgetting her.
- AnotherUser372 2y
  yup, i had to go back to the turning point 2 ep to see it again cuz i completely forgot abt her
Paizurin 2y
Really good part on the voice acting and animation. It felt really convincing.
cannot wait for the next episode.
What kinda confuses me though is why we talking about Ep.9 when there is a 10 in the thread and on anilist. Like what is the reason`? Was there some filler summary episode?
- pasxali 2y
  The first episode of the season is called Episode 0, that's why we're calling it episode 10 because "episode 9" is actually the tenth episode of the season.
  
  It also says "Includes Episode 0" in the description.
- red86 2y
  it counts episode 0
- ionface 2y
  Worth the watch:
  Mushoku Tensei II: Isekai Ittara Honki Dasu - Shugo Jutsushi Fitz
  Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation 2nd Season - Episode 0 "Guardian Fitz"
  無職転生Ⅱ ～異世界行ったら本気だす～第0話「守護術師フィッツ」
Neiday 2y
one of the best episode i've watched so far
can't wait to see what will happen next
PurposelyCryptic 2y
Another one of those time-slip episodes that disappears in five minutes, only for the clock to say 25 minutes have passed.
WanimeAtcher 2y
Finally a decent episode, the second season has felt really off until now.
AngelLiveur 2y
White Mask is secretly the summoned heroine of a Isekai. The trope can't die.
- Ryuseishun 2y
  How so??
  AngelLiveur 2y
  I jest.
  But, don't you know the trope? The black-haired saintess summoned to save the world according to the prophecy? That trope.
  Ryuseishun 2y
  She has no magic. She can’t be that.
  AngelLiveur 2y
  The trope does not require the saintess to possess "magic".
  Ryuseishun 2y
  She can't be a heroine when she clearly hates the world she's being teleported in and has more in attempting to go back to her own world instead of doing anything remotely "heroic" in this new world.

ngpsx 2y
the girl with the mask looks like a hollow knight character
haeryngrqfgevat 2y
how insane am i for thinking nanahoshi wasn't actually summoned in the flesh either so much as copied from before she would have been hit by the truck, and her lack of mana is due to something else entirely (like, say, inhabiting a mana-fueled construct body that's ageless by nature, the creation of which did cause the mana disaster but has no connection to how it specifically caused teleportation)
looking forward to when/if rudy actually reconciles with his own past enough to admit that he actually saw her alive after when she remembers being summoned, because the implication would be that there's also still a nanahoshi living her life in japan, and then the presumed isekai duplicate then gets to have to reconcile her desire to return with that
- Ryuseishun 2y
  What??
- skuutbwai 2y
  I wondered that too, like she is the girl he saved yeah?
- Bogatear 2y
  It was explained in the episode that everything in the fantasy world has mana, so she is definitely from a different world. I can't clarify more without going into spoilers. Information about her and teleportation incident will be spoon-fed until the end of the series, so, if you enjoy solving puzzles - this one will keep you entertained for a long time :)
qiyankaaa 2y
Then now we know that Truck-kun is the gate to another world. It was so simple anyway see ya
Gum5 2y
kino episode 10/10
Kairo 2y
If the black hair girl has no mana how did she use those barriers??
- Gum5 2y
  im guessing its because of the rings she put on
Bogatear 2y
Fun fact: Pursena specializes in healing magic while Linia in elemental magic. Rudeus has classes with them and they often practice together.
Fun fact #2: Nanahoshi is very rich, she used her knowledge from her original world to secure a stable source of income. She uses mana from magical crystals to help with her research, but concerned that she's buying too many of them which negatively impacts the market.
Fun fact #3: Rudeus didn't faint from fear, but actually knocked himself out by falling down the stairs. Not sure why they've decided to change it in the anime.
senba 2y
cool main quest ep..

but tell him tell him tell him tell him TELL HIM
TheSledge 2y
We should give props to the music direction for this episode.

Nanahoshi's theme is written in a 7/7 measure.

For those who don't know music theory, instead of counting in the normal 1-2-3-4 measure that most of us would be familiar with, a 7-beat measure is not common in most music we listen to with some exceptions, but the composition of Nanahoshi's theme has that ominous, mysterious sound to it.
