    Something I'm wondering: Is the hitogami only part of that magic world where Rudy mow lives, or is our real world supposed to be part of a universe that is governed by gods, unbeknownst to us?

    Do we have any clues here? Basically: Did Rudy get summoned to a world where gods exist or were gods always around and oversee all sorts of different worlds?

    Pretty sure that's not been revealed one way or the other.

    Though the fact that the god seems to know and understand Rudy's old life would suggest that the latter is at least possible.

    I'd say they can interfere in this world, but at best can only observe the other world to some degree (if even that), summoning aside. My basis for this is that magic is non-existent in our world.

    That said though, they don't seem to do much. Hitogami appears in Rudy's dreams and gives him advice and apparent predictions. Dragon god walks around, fucks people up, appears to have foreknowledge of the world and may be involved in summoning people. The various demon gods just visit people for fun, and one of the dudes sit in their floating castle.

    That's the extent of current gods that we've seen. Laplace and other people were featured in legends.

    I could easily imagine Zenith dying, instead of getting rescued despite Rudeus's best efforts. I very much don't expect Sylphie, Eris, or Roxy to die. That is, the three women Rudeus loves romantically. That being said, I wouldn't go as far as to say it's totally unimaginable, but it would be unexpected, if you ask me.

    I can absolutely see one of them die. I can also see Rudy trying to learn a revive-spell ... or a zombifying-spell. Or simply begging hitogami to revive her, which will make force Rudy to officially become hitogami's servant, maybe a way to pitch someone against the dragon god.

    A reason I see as to why they can't die right now is because it would re-trigger Rudy-depression mode.
    And that would just be no fun to watch. (Season 2 part 1 concluded that part of his character development)

    Zenith, perhaps, that will hit him (and me), but not destroy him , but it can't be Sylphie - no freaking way.
    Roxy most likely neither.
    Worst thing that could happen would be some time-travel fiasko "to get her back" and that never ends well in terms of storytelling.

    Yep. Besides dying in our world, that's as close to death as Rudy has been to date.

    Then he didn't die, right? He was almost dead and then healed.

    That wasn't Rudy. He only got that name after he reincarnated.

    I'm all for shortcuts as well. Thank fuck for teleportation circles.

    The symbol on the circles correspond to the one on the puppet manual book from Rudy's house, but again is different from the one described as the Dragon God's when they first introduced them. But the spell definitely suggests that it's related to dragons, and it looks like one anyway.

    Rudy actually considered fucking Elinalise momentarily prior to the trip lol. I mean, she's hot as fuck.

    That said, I almost cringed at him not even making one night before trying. I knew there was some scent that was funny but didn't figure it was a Succubus until it showed up.

    And talking about night.. not that I've ever done any desert-trekking, but all the Hollywood shows I've seen say that it should be done at night rather than during the day.

    If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~

    Well, I'm glad that paid off.

    Holy shit the animation quality dropped hard. Even when it didn't look half-bad, the quality in the next segment or even next shots in the same scene could be slightly better or very noticeably worse.

    I began to wonder if Elinalise actually emits some aphrodisiac when she's in heat, as a part of the curse, even though I didn't remember such a detail from any previous episodes with her. The succubus certainly explained it. It wasn't actually a bad scene, I'd say, since it certainly fits this series and introduced a new, potentially dangerous monster. Rudeus would have liked been finished without Elinalise.

    I reckon it would depend on a number of things. For example in Sahara, the temperature apparently drops below zero Celsius at night. So, if you aren't equipped for that, it's bad. Also, you can't necessarily see that much, so navigation might depend on stars alone, if you are capable. In a fantasy world, who knows what kind of horrors lurk in the darkness of the night.

    Other than that, it was nice to see Rudeus display his power in a normal fight. He's relatively famous for a reason, but the long school arches didn't really have that many scenes showing it.

    I was just happy to see Elinalise's fighting style. Her use of a buckler really differs from the three main sword styles we've seen fights for in detail.

    I'm pretty sure she actually doesn't use any of the three styles, none of which use a shield.

    Really disappointed Rudy didn't get to bang Elinalise Would have lead to more interesting consequences. And I don't see how her going 'man-hunting' is preferable. Do it with a friend instead of random guys :/
