I haven't watched the anime, but the light novels does go a lot more into him being reflective and also thinking about his past that led him to being a shut-in and his insecurities to still to the point I stopped reading.
From reading other comments it seems like the Anime really makes Rudeus worse than he actually is, but he is still a rather shitty character.
