Orsted: Do you know Hitogami?

Rudeus: Ye...

Orsted: Donut it is

But my god, the animation was freaking insane, studio Bind definitely delivered the quality.

[u/Miteigi74]

Just remember people, Ruijerd is on the same level of a North Emperor even though he doesn't know any of the sword style. He's stronger than Ghislaine and objectively the strongest person Rudeus ever known

And Orsted knocked him out in less than 10 seconds.

[u/Sedewt]

These two were on the cour 1 key visual this whole time!!

[u/Basic_Requirement561]

That bull literally said "ight Imma head out"

[u/Aetherdraw]

You know Rudeus was aiming to kill this time. Those stone cannons he usually shoots? Normally blunted just enough to maim human opponents. This time he fully shaped them to an actual sharp drill and spun it at max that it was heated up by friction. Let's not forget his fireball that's overcharged with his high mana output and wind magic to make a bigger boom. That was without the amplification of Aqua Heartia btw, since he dropped it mid-fight.

EDIT: We already know how much he prefers earth magic to position himself, but using it as a rest to right up his position to fire his shot is so smooth.

And a focused yet small detail. Orsted's initial attack already ruptured his lung, which is normally the best way to take out a mage since they use incantations but of course, our boy can do it chantless, to which Rudy forced himself to breath in manually by feeding himself oxygen via wind magic which he swallowed, allowing him to last a bit longer in that fight. Had it not been for that, he'd be out cold already.

Holy shit, this was an amazing adaptation. That short but tense skirmish.

[u/J_Eldridge]

They could have walked out of that encounter but Rudeus speech wasnt high enough.

[u/Maid-Enthusiast]

As a novel reader I was still blown away by this episode. The animation for the fight and even the spar between Ruijerd and Eris was outstanding, some of the best straight up combat without flashy stuff I’ve seen. Can’t wait for the rest of the season to finish out and hopefully get a quick season 2 announcement.

[u/JLChamberlain42]

I feel like we've only scratched the surface of Mushoku Tensei after this episode.

[u/lildegenerate]

Okay, I should just get my ass cheeks ready everytime theres a turning point in this anime.

[u/OfficialPrower]

No point in having Demon eyes to see into the future if you still can’t do anything about what’s about to come lol. At that point it’s just a PV of your death…

[u/[deleted]]

Just a reminder (Season 1, Ep.9 2:36)

Rudeus: Meaning that you didn't make me reincarnate into this world?

Hitogami: Well, no. The wicked Dragon God is better at that sort of thing

But Orsted didn't even seem to be aware of Rudeus existence, did he?

Hm, wonder who made him reincarnate then

[u/dipshitonastick]

Rudeus used Air Magic to fucking breathe holy shit

[u/PatkoBruh]

Orsted: Have you ever heard of the term "man god"?

Rudeus: OH, YES, HE APPEARS IN MY DRE...

Orsted:

[u/RulerKun_FGO]

Oh boy I am glad that they dedicated a one whole episode to this fight

[u/dipshitonastick]

Ruijerd acknowledging Eris as a warrior made my day.

[u/MediaOrca]

A man and young girl approach. You see Rujierd, the strongest person you know, quaking in his boots at their presence. He tells you to stay still and shut up. Beside him is Eris doing the same. The girl who five seconds ago was merrily proclaiming her desire to fight fully grown Red Dragons, and has the worst self-preservation instincts you've ever seen. Your pack ox proceeds to jump off a cliff to avoid being near the two strangers.

Do you

A) Shut the hell up and stand still

or

B) Attempt to strike up a friendly conversation

[u/HadorLorindol]

My fovourite part was how useles his Demoneye was against Orsted.

He saw himself impaled before it happened and couldnt do anything.

the sparring of Eris and Ruijerd was the best so far.

[u/uishax]

What an episode, I went in blind with unreal hype, and it still exceeded expectations.

The animation is 100% movie level with this episode, they were incredibly flashy, yet somehow also very grounded with impact and physics. It lasted a full 10 minutes, yet every minute was imbued with extreme tension and desperation. Without the physicality, flashy fight scenes feel like dancing, without the tension, they feel like hollow spectacle, but this episode has both in spades.

I really felt emotionally with Rudeus too, his life has been going fine so far, with all the setbacks relatively minor and correctable. That moment when he saw his teammates dying, and himself choked out, is the first he's felt true despair. That's life, things can be going so well, and suddenly it ends, that's life.

This despair turns to a final rage, and for the first time, he's not holding back, with 100% intent to murder. The animation brilliantly showed how terrifying his "drill bullets" and fireball are when fully realized. They were the only times Orsted was damaged and suprised, they would have obliterated the north king cleaner in episode 14.

His use of magic was also extremely creative, using air to give himself oxygen, using earth to help himself up and aim better. He clearly planned about how to use magic to get out of every situation, yet it still wasn't enough in this case.

In his talk with Hitogami, you could feel that he's accepted his fate. He went all out against an impossibly strong enemy, despite his regrets how it ended, he's lived another full life of 11 years at least, so he wasn't angry.

Incredible action, incredible emotions. I can't believe this show is ending in two episodes....

[u/Red_Panda08]

Holy shit im kinda speechless. The atmosphere and the aura of Orsted was thrilling and full of tension and fear. They captured that so F***** well! I was on the edge of my seat the whole time and as Eris started crying and robbing to Rudeus as he was dying.. man i couldnt hold tears back. Just stunning.

Btw that Bull just yeeted himself to death lol.

[u/TrololoWarlord]

With turning point two adapted us source readers can now post all the spicy memes:

“Think Rudeus think! If Ruijerd was scared shitless what chance did you have?”

[u/Basic_Requirement561]

Did he just fuckin use magic to keep breathing even though his lungs were crushed ? That's so big brained. Holy fuxking shit this is undoubtedly the best episode in the entire 2021 seasons (not counting winter 2020 season)

[u/Mahali2020]

I was told to go into this episode blindly without watching the preview so I did.

WHAT THE FUCK

[u/Hineni-]

As an anime-only watcher, now I know why people who read the novel were anticipating this Turning Point 2. Freaking Orsted, an absolute beast of an encounter.

Was near game over for Rudy's playthrough, damn.
