people who are asking what the name of the anime is I'm going to pin this! This anime is called: *Ascendance of a bookworm!* To those also wondering what episodes are being featured it's episode 14 and 26
I've just finished reading the translated novels right now. The plot progresses into a tragic note but all becomes clear in the later volumes despite it all being so obscure as to what would happen next.
Imagine being unable to restore so much as a city block, and then watching a child you'd dissed earlier restore an entire city's worth and then supercharge it.
i may be mistaken in this, but if memory serves she wasn't even really trying, she was essentially just using the residual mana that was leaking out of the "box" she holds her mana in i have to imagine if she had actually tried it would gone from dirt field to jungle in less than a second
@@shimmyking4 not a jungle as seen in P4, infact she had to use an extra nasty potion to completely restore the land. but the materials that could be collected in the area is definitely high quality
To put this into perspective, the blue haired guy is the second strongest magic user in the Duchy, just behind the Duke himself. And Myne was strong enough that just her releasing a portion of her overflowing mana was enough to stop him from moving when he wasn't even the person she was angry with and intentionally focussing her mana on.
I think that's a bit people keep forgetting. She wasn't also trying to crush Ferdinand, but she had enough power she was simultaneously crushing the priest and restraining Ferdinand.
Im not sure if it's something I started but I know her name is spelled main but in English it's pronounced differently than what it would be in Japanese. So I just took the liberty and did that because one it sounds like a cool sith name and two it can still be pronounced as mine but spelled myne!
Also I believe at the end when she is Rozemyne. They use the Rozemyne spelling. Basically Myne is the one that any who have read either the Light novels or Manga will probably use. It was probably the translators for the anime simply picked Main instead for some reason.
Truthfully I like when she shows her RAGE, however I think the showing of power with the Staff of Regrowth is shows it better because of the Comparison VS the Twerp in armor.
From watching the next season (current) Spoilers The guy is actually a really weak noble. He was sent to the temple because his magic capacity was so low. His mother was happy because he was allowed back to the noble family bc of mana lacking.
@@Hawaiiwong Which doesn't stop other knights, including some fairly high ranking Erhenfest archnobles ( as the Knight Commander, and his two elder sons ), and even Ferdinand for that matter, to be utterly shocked ;). And, as it's pretty clear here, she didn't break a sweat in the slightest ( In fact, according to the LN, she didn't even open the box entirely. ). Spoilers As for her mana capacity and quality, she's a freaking monster. At this moment, she was probably already Royalty-class, maybe more, considering the state of the Royalty...
There's actually a part/ver.2 of her healing, if you guys read the novel... Spoiler: She healed a whole area to the point where trees and herbs grew to maturity also the time she melted snow in a territory from winter to spring(Giebe actually mentioned it's closer to summer). 😉
if it was me, i would destroy the entire vatican if they threatened to kill my parents. not one soul will be spared. in myne's own words, if you are prepared to keel someone, you must also be prepared to dye yourself. (rephrasing bc youtube censorship is a pain)
@@ruwibiduya2720 *novel spoilers* The melting of the snow in Haldenzel was more due to the magic tool that was embedded in the stage than her raw power. It used up a ton of mana, sure.. but they commented that they should be able to do it without her in following years. Her biggest "power" here was having access to the special prayer in the High Bishop's bible to make it work.
Still one of my favourite scenes in the LN. Especially since right after, Ferdinand is like "I did tell you to show off, but yeesh. Way to overshoot the target." Meanwhile Myne wasn't even halfway done when he told her to stop lmao
@@linkofdoom24tress, some vines, flowers, a little pond in the middle with a single frog and sun shining through the clearing in the trees. You know, give it that 'enchanted grove' feel.
I love the Vader theme, a great touch! What I really like about this scene is that you only really fully understand everything about this scene much later. For one, the fact that She can overwhelm Ferdinand's mana is really important to why Ferdinand takes certain actions, as well as one of few times he is genuinely afraid and not in control of the situation. The more you learn about noble culture and how Ferdinand thinks, the more his reaction actually makes sense. Since nobles always hide their emotions and if she were to kill the scumbag, it is obvious she and her parents would be executed. From a noble point of view they should be deathly afraid of angering those of higher status for just this reason. Later on, the same thing is shown with Damuel, who is a low ranked noble, versus Shikza, who is of higher rank. Despite going against orders, Damuel still could not afford to go against a higher ranked noble that has a family that could make his life either very unpleasant or very short. Ferdinand meanwhile, has no frame of reference for a commoner's point of view, nor that Main/Myne would rather die than let her new parents and sister be killed because of her. Especially now that she considers them to be real family and that she owes them a great debt for accepting her despite all the weirdness she shows, being a young adult in a child's body.
It's amazing what knowing later parts of the story let's you unravel about character motivations earlier in the story. Spoiler: _ _ _ _ _ _ Ferdinand's shocked expression when Myne started crushing wasn't to the fact that she was crushing the high priest. To perform the crushing you need more mana than your target and the high priest had very little so for a girl with the devouring it wasn't too shocking. No what actually happened, is that nobles can sense when someone has more mana than them, this is why only Damuel was able to sense the source of mana in the forest as he had the lowest mana. But they have a hard time reading the mana of children, unless their mana is surging. When Myne let go and started crushing the high priest Ferdinand knew Myne had significantly more mana than him. He knew at that point that Myne could and would overpower him. As a reminder Ferdinand is no slouch in the mana department so this actually scared Ferdinand.
@@JEL625 Further Spoiler Warning - - - - - - It is in that moment Ferdinand realizes that the strange, frail child, holds back an ocean of power acquired only by sheer will to survive. While a commoner, and untrained, her mana capacity alone makes her both a danger and a potential boon in a time fraught with mana shortage. Ferdinand will remember that.
As she grabs the staff I just imagine that she is a acolyte conducting a sith ritual. Peace is a lie. There is only Passion. Through Passion, I gain Strength. Through Strength, I gain Power. Through Power, I gain Victory. Through Victory my chains are Broken. The Force shall free me.
And since some sith users could influence midichlorians to bring things back to life or to create life it makes sense that they brought grass back to life! Like Darth plagueis the Wise...
I think part of why mynes anger hits so hard is that she is a logical capable adult. She knows her magic is able to kill that man. That's what she wants. It isn't some child losing control and being unable to retract it's someone with the strength to pull away but is actively making the decision to stay.
Though she's lived a whole life already, with a family that presumably loved her. This is also her family now, and she loves them too. They endangered her family, to which her father rose in defense. Then they summarily sentenced him to die...for DOING THE RIGHT THING. Yup...she snapped...hard. She knew exactly what she was doing.
No, actually she does not know she could kill somebody. She was completely unaware of what was going on around her. In fact, she thought it’s funny that he was afraid of her. In the scene following this when people recount what actually happened she’s horrified. And she wonders why her parents would raise such a strange child
@@neilkurzman4907 did you and I watch the same thing? Because she literally asks while being told she's going to kill him "so? He was going to kill someone surely he was prepared to die himself" she is absolutely aware that she's going to kill this man, that's her goal
@@neilkurzman4907She is totally playing a bit in that scene, as not to give away her actual intelligence. Myne knows exactly what she is capable of, being that she is most likely the most magically gifted person alive.
@@ABVW92 At this point in time, Ferdinand has more money than she does. And now she doesn’t know her limit. In the books she asked Ferdinand several times does she really have that much more mana than other people? And then the Academy it becomes blatantly obvious to her that she has more than other people as she interacts with them. Ferdinand knew she had a lot. But this demonstrated she had a lot more than even he thought.
Peace is a lie, there are only Books. Through Books, I gain Knowledge Through Knowledge, I gain paper Through Paper, I gain more Books. And through more Books, my ignorance shatters. The Books will set me Free.
Books will enlighten The Masses The Masses will rise up against The Nobility And The Masses shall take the Noble's place And I shall be at the top As The Empress of Knowledge Because Knowledge is POWER!
@@Elis_veta they are a take on the Sith code from Star wars. The one from Star Wars is this: Peace is a lie. There is only Passion. Through Passion, I gain Strength. Through Strength, I gain Power. Through Power, I gain Victory. Through Victory my chains are Broken. The Force shall free me
this is one of the best rage mode power displays ever caus when her mana leaks out she stops talking like a kid and istead speaks like some angle/god is possesing her body
That dirt field had just held a 'moving tree' that grows and moves at such rapid rates that it drains the nutrients, mana, and life force of anything within its radius or whatever it touches with its branches/tendrils. That entire area had been rendered sterile and bereft of life, mana, or any sort of sustainability. Left alone, it would take years to decades for it to recover. Using her own mana (because there was none ambient in the area) she not only replenished the life force of the area, spawned new life to help sustain it, but was still going when the Head Priest cut her off. It was a pretty good show of her level of power versus what people (more specifically nobles) considered those who have power to begin with. So it would be more apt to say it could bring back life to an area of death.
@Decade_1703 You must first understand the ways of the force and hone its power. Additionally, you must know the Sith code, which it states "Peace is a lie, there is only passion. Through passion, I gain strength. Through strength, I gain power. Through power, I gain victory. Through victory, my chains are broken. The force shall free me."
I feel like that is a mistranslation from the novel you read, because Ferdinand has more mana than she does and he was still hit by it. IIRC, the novel I read (from bookwalker) said that having less mana means you have no defense against it, not that it doesn't affect you at all if you are even or have more. Which makes sense, since Bezewanst is seriously lacking in the mana department.
@@absentmindedjwc crushing was described as some kind of torture against the lesser nobles but maybe i’m wrong she still had just almost the same mana than ferdinand thought, or at least they said something like that
@@zatzarat9865 *spoilers of far later in the series* Even after mastering her 4th level of mana compression during her first year at the academy, she still had less mana than Ferdinand. She's going to continue growing, and will eventually have far more... but even at volume 19, he's still beyond her (though, at that point, he's also learned the new mana compression technique) He has, however, mentioned that she is very close.
@@absentmindedjwc I think it was just retconned tbh. The Grey priests are also supposed to be taught to never act with violence and how it's forbidden. But 2 novels before that here we are.
@@absentmindedjwc During the winter mana dedication he said she was the only person that could be in the room with him. I assume that was because during the dedication they're both putting out so much power it's dangerous for anyone else. I would expect him to be stronger. She may have a better mana compression technique, but he's been doing it longer. Plus, the only reason he's in the temple is politics, unlike the other nobles. I think her mana level was originally at the lesser noble stage, but her compression has increased it to mid to upper level.
Ah yes the full power of the dark side! *Regrows grass* "Unlimited powaaar!" *Evil laughter.* Maybe the dark side is just a reference to all the shade from them regrowing trees? *Bad joke drum sound.*
@@morbidflood4908 And more. As I'd say S4 / S5 would cover the before and during school bits. (Vague as possible to avoid spoilers for anyone else.) Hope it gets least 5+
Even in this moment, it shows just how much more mana she has than anyone there, but it also shows how much more mana the head priest has than the high priest.
Mayne here is more like a Ultimate Grey Jedi who has gained absolute balance and control of both aspects of The Light and Dark Force. Can use Dark Force Techniques without allowing The Dark Force to corrupt her as well as Light Force Techniques without feeling exausted.
Yup, Shikza has no more than a laynoble, (he was sent to the temple due to lack of mana) on top of not having the ability to compress his mana before being an adult. Myne has unconsciously compressed hers to an insane degree so she could survive for years, always bordering on death. Their mana capacity can’t even be compared ool
I need you guys to understand that Ferdinand, blue haired prist, is only around 16 here, according to the lite novels, watching Main do this. He has the biggest balls of all to still try and calm her down.
@@wolfhunter98 I posted this on the wrong clip anyway. I'll double check, but I could have sworn the light. Novels still had him as a teenager at this point.
If anyone has a hard time visualizing what happened. Remember in fairy Tail when Natsu challenged Gildarts during the S-rank trials and Gildarts let his magic flow freely thus making Natsu shit his pants? Yes, it's the same exact thing. Myne simple let her power flow freely.
Or Ainz in season 3 ep8 when he showed that poor worker his true magic level in the LN and she was unable to do anything but panic scream in between vomiting.
Actually, in the light novel, the mana she used was simply what escaped the "box" she kept shoving it into in order to not die from too much mana. She hasn't opened that box yet. She overpowers everyone without needing to.
Well actually no, as I've seen maaaybe 3 or so episodes of that show. I'd only watch it for the red head. Erisa? Idk. Then there's a blue hair haired side girl in the same guild that was kinda cute too.
@@wolfhunter98 From what I gather, Rozemyne is more powerful in comparison to age and will surpass him once she grows into her power fully. She actually helps him become stronger by (spoilers) teaching him a more advanced form of mana suppression (spoilers end). I think Rozemyne is the most powerful and most talented mage in the series but I'm also 90% sure the series is eventually going to pair them together since (spoilers) they are the only two people powerful enough to procreate with each other (spoilers end).
@@Wolfrage76 And she's not even close to using it all. That overwhelming amount was just the mana that was "overflowing" from her cup to refer to how it was put in the anime. (When she was saved by that magic item).
I loved the first scene, and when I saw the second scene I at first thought "no way this works" but power coming off the staff in sync with the music, the looks of fear in the knights eyes, and the wave of "creepy" green grass starting to overgrow everything...before Ferdinand stoped her...totaly fit. The fact that she kinda of got lost in what she was doing and was barley getting started really does punctuate how scary her overpowered mana really is.
the nobles attempt on my life has left me Scared and deformed. The remaining nobles will be hunted down and defeated and the kingdom will be reorganized into the *First Global EMPIRE!*
*Actual quote by Myne crushing someone 6 years later in the Light Novel:* Myne: _I was barely even crushing him, but all of a sudden, his eyes rolled back into his head and his mouth began to foam. He had fallen unconscious. Well, whatever._ This girl became such a Savage when she's gotten to the point of just nonchalantly crushing a dude just to get information out of him. He lived of course, but Myne also nonchalantly threatened him to keep his mouth shut about what she did to him. I couldn't stop smiling as I read the passage over and over again. Myne has come a long way since her first crushing on the former High Bishop.
This anime has a rather interesting take on isekai that I really like. The actual powerlessness she faces due to the system despite being OP herself knowledgeable-wise and mana-wise. The different take on magic and how mana is used in the world. I've caught up to all of the anime so I am really looking forward to a new season
she isn't powerless to change the system, she just isn't ruthless enough to do so, popping a select few heads and making strict declarations and everyone would fall in line, as history has shown.
@@xxx_jim_the_reaper_xxx lol, Napoleon pissed off the entire world, declared himself Emperor and coasted for years till the whole world got lucky/smart enough to finally beat him, and all they did was exile him
@@keithfilibeck2390 It is true that Myne becomes much more healthier as the plot progresses. She snowballs up until she becomes the Most Beautiful Goddess known in the whole country. Unlike Napoleon, Myne has connections to the most powerful people in her continent.
@@catdust nah that isn't exactly the reason. spoilers (idk why I feellike distributing spoilers today...) but if you are gonna read the LN or WN later so don't scroll furthur (though I know you are gonna do it anyway hehehe) She gets the power of gods.. I won't explain more cuz' that would take too long
This whole scene was better action animation that I expected from this show. It was a good reminder that Myne's isekai dad is a soldier, with his hand-to-hand combat skills, and Myne's magical powers are well animated also
Yes the animation seems so simple at first, but everything was executed so well. You really could tell the difrence between a trained soldier and a bunch of assistant preists... the assistants got messed up. And Myne's magic is not really fighting... it is one blessed by the gods letting just a little bit lose when she could probaly kill everyone in the room. Magic and fighting rarly get used in this show, but when used it is crushingly effective.
When I first posted this I tried with the intention to have the music I put over it, to drown out the other background music but due to me not realizing that not only did I drown out the background music, but also the character voice lines as well so I had to take it down and reupload it and try to make it were we could hear the characters while the music was playing downside being you still kind of hear the original soundtrack behind it so I had to find a compromise and this is the best I could do! I hope that's alright!
It is an Isekai anime based off of a series of Japanese light novels. The young girl is the main character. In the first episode she is a modern Japanese librarian and lover books. She dies and wakes up as a sickly five year old in a medieval village. It’s a small village and they go deeply into studies of the civilization, and the people. And as you can see in the video after five or six episodes she discovers all this magic in this world. And we learned that this isn’t the past.
Myne be like, why TF did you stop me, Ferdinend? Ferdinend: oh, you wanted to continue creating grass and trees to make your paper? Myne: argh that's the thing with you upperclass noble weaklings. I actually wanted to grow a forest, including a World tree, and each tree having hundreds of tau fruit that create an S rank monster area full with Trombes.
@@TheDman131 this is very true. Volgrin paper is 2 silver and trombe paper is 4 silver if I remember correctly in the novel? Myne be like, I'll test coloured ink, and draw 3 different color stripes on this sheet .. bye bye 2 months of Gunthers salary
@@AgarioSplitrunner To think the Trombe's wood would become a commodity as a paper-crafting material for the books Myne wanted to create, it has shot up in value since then.
Oh wow, the edit I did not know I needed. Emperor Palpatine's theme music fits so well. Darth Myne just like Darth Palpatine just wants to bring peace...but to some misguided rebels that don't know better she seems pretty creepy. Lol watching the show you don't understand why anyone would want to hurt such a sweet child, but this kinda helps me see the other sides point of veiw lol.
The knight barely even fix half of the circle and was panting while the child they pick on cause she's not of noble status seems to not only finish what they started but was also seems to be able to keep going.
I saw some UA-cam videos using the imperial March and I thought that's way too much for the scene. Sidious themes is more subtle something I would describe as controlled anger!
There is another video of the second part of this video in which someone actually did the math... Myne SERIOUSLY flexed her magical muscles here, that being said, I like the Dark Side music Re score's
*Light spoilers* It's not so much that she flexed her magical muscle, it's just that Shikza was really that weak. Many of the people there - with the proper prayer - could have managed at least most of what she did (with several likely being able to exceed her). They were surprised to see a priest able to do it, though, since priests are generally pretty weak. The exception to this is Ferdinand, who has a mana capacity above Myne. Also Sylvester (the blue priest that has been in a couple season 3 episodes)..... who has a higher mana capacity than Ferdinand for reasons that will become known at the end of this season.
@@absentmindedjwc spoilers About the Myne's mana capacity, I believe that at this moment yes, she has less mana than Ferdinand, but that was changed during the sleep, I think that during her journey to get the magic wand is where is confirmed that her mana is absurd (but the people thought that was because other week constitution), where her mana was liquified, and after that was the new compression method also
@@dieltolo6112 *Spoilers from far ahead in the series* I seem to recall that, even after that, she is still slightly behind him. But it is assumed that she catches up (and surpasses him) quickly as time goes on. Ferdinand is still growing given the compression method working on adults, but it was mentioned that the primary growth phase of mana was through the teenage years. She’ll absolutely pass him… but I do not believe she’s there quite yet.
When you witness true power, you should be humbled and admit your shortcomings. The truly powerful makes themselves known by their actions and don't need to bark like a dog.
I’m just going to drop to all the people new to Ascendance of a Bookworm and just finding this video. There is a whole light novel to read that goes wayy more in depth with the lore/characters and is totally worth reading if you enjoyed the anime!
"He was ready to kill a person, I'm sure he was ready to risk his own life too" Myne literally took a page from Kurumi's book "You were ready to kill another creature, yet you're scared of being killed yourself, don't you think that's strange?"
@@TheDman131 There’s no official release date just an announcement that it’s in production. It’s believed that it will be released this year. 🤷🏻♂️ There is an official video about it somewhere on UA-cam
@@TheDman131 wait is the anime already getting there? The last time I checked it is when Myne adopted into noblehood after the church incident. Did I lost somewhere in those season?
@@radixmaharaj5912 I agree but on the other hand her parents were not capable of understanding how mana works and they cant protect her like the Lord's can!
4:51 We can see it here that SHE'S JUST GETTING INTO IT. The prayer was basically her preparation speech before she started to go all out, when for others the speech is the part where they pour all of their power and concentration into. Meaning we were ACTUALLY YET TO SEE what would've happened here if Ferdinand didn't stop her. If she would've used maybe a third? Half of her mana? Maybe she would've stopped then? Heck, I bet an entire huge forest would've just sprung out of the ground if she would've continued like this. I'm scared to know what would've happened if she went all out. 🤯😖
This is going to take a few seasons but in LN she did and overtly... Going full Darth Rosemyne, while the cannonball goes every which way they wanted... as a yet not introduced character would have said... "shit's crazy" * Wide eyed, drowning in invites *
As we get into Part 3 the magic will take a much more central stage in the story (and even more so in Part 4). The economics are still there but they take a little bit of a backseat compared to learning about noble society and magic.
"You have failed me for the last time, Bishop" Edit: It's ironic though that the priest was talking mad 💩 and Myne just choked him into oblivion simply because she lost her temper. And that is why you don't play stupid games to win stupid prizes from people who are kind, the kind ones always have a demon packed away behind that face. Remember that.
i have watched both season 1 and season 2 and am currently watching season 3 and i must say that music fit the 1st scene perfectly but it doesnt really fit the healing nature of the second scene
To keep the Darth myne thing going I did a medieval take on sidious's theme (which is not my song if you want the link to the song it's in the description above) myne has shown she's more powerful than any noble she's come across so far. This is the only song I could find that really cemented that she's using all this mana but it's not all her mana it's only a fraction of her power. You get what I mean it's like a show of force is what I was shooting for...
Think of it this way. In the expanded universe of Star Wars there have been a number of Sith Lords that have been capable of creating Life, craft the flesh, grow things, as well as twisting them.

And Myne was strong enough that just her releasing a portion of her overflowing mana was enough to stop him from moving when he wasn't even the person she was angry with and intentionally focussing her mana on.

Also I believe at the end when she is Rozemyne. They use the Rozemyne spelling. Basically Myne is the one that any who have read either the Light novels or Manga will probably use. It was probably the translators for the anime simply picked Main instead for some reason.

The melting of the snow in Haldenzel was more due to the magic tool that was embedded in the stage than her raw power. It used up a ton of mana, sure.. but they commented that they should be able to do it without her in following years.
Her biggest "power" here was having access to the special prayer in the High Bishop's bible to make it work.
"I find your lack of faith distrubring"
"myne release him"
"......... after he passes out"
myne:as you wish
More like "I find your lack of books disturbing"
Still one of my favourite scenes in the LN. Especially since right after, Ferdinand is like "I did tell you to show off, but yeesh. Way to overshoot the target." Meanwhile Myne wasn't even halfway done when he told her to stop lmao
she was like, I haven't even started flexing yet
I expected her to say "You don't want the trees back?"
@@Sagdragyeah its a while till she does that…

I love the Vader theme, a great touch! What I really like about this scene is that you only really fully understand everything about this scene much later. For one, the fact that She can overwhelm Ferdinand's mana is really important to why Ferdinand takes certain actions, as well as one of few times he is genuinely afraid and not in control of the situation.
The more you learn about noble culture and how Ferdinand thinks, the more his reaction actually makes sense. Since nobles always hide their emotions and if she were to kill the scumbag, it is obvious she and her parents would be executed. From a noble point of view they should be deathly afraid of angering those of higher status for just this reason. Later on, the same thing is shown with Damuel, who is a low ranked noble, versus Shikza, who is of higher rank. Despite going against orders, Damuel still could not afford to go against a higher ranked noble that has a family that could make his life either very unpleasant or very short.
Ferdinand meanwhile, has no frame of reference for a commoner's point of view, nor that Main/Myne would rather die than let her new parents and sister be killed because of her. Especially now that she considers them to be real family and that she owes them a great debt for accepting her despite all the weirdness she shows, being a young adult in a child's body.
This is not Vader's team this is palpatine's Darth sidious if you will, but I get your point!

Ferdinand's shocked expression when Myne started crushing wasn't to the fact that she was crushing the high priest. To perform the crushing you need more mana than your target and the high priest had very little so for a girl with the devouring it wasn't too shocking.
No what actually happened, is that nobles can sense when someone has more mana than them, this is why only Damuel was able to sense the source of mana in the forest as he had the lowest mana. But they have a hard time reading the mana of children, unless their mana is surging. When Myne let go and started crushing the high priest Ferdinand knew Myne had significantly more mana than him. He knew at that point that Myne could and would overpower him. As a reminder Ferdinand is no slouch in the mana department so this actually scared Ferdinand.

It is in that moment Ferdinand realizes that the strange, frail child, holds back an ocean of power acquired only by sheer will to survive. While a commoner, and untrained, her mana capacity alone makes her both a danger and a potential boon in a time fraught with mana shortage. Ferdinand will remember that.

And since some sith users could influence midichlorians to bring things back to life or to create life it makes sense that they brought grass back to life! Like Darth plagueis the Wise...
I think part of why mynes anger hits so hard is that she is a logical capable adult. She knows her magic is able to kill that man. That's what she wants. It isn't some child losing control and being unable to retract it's someone with the strength to pull away but is actively making the decision to stay.
Though she's lived a whole life already, with a family that presumably loved her. This is also her family now, and she loves them too.
They endangered her family, to which her father rose in defense. Then they summarily sentenced him to die...for DOING THE RIGHT THING.
Yup...she snapped...hard. She knew exactly what she was doing.
No, actually she does not know she could kill somebody. She was completely unaware of what was going on around her. In fact, she thought it’s funny that he was afraid of her. In the scene following this when people recount what actually happened she’s horrified.
And she wonders why her parents would raise such a strange child
@@neilkurzman4907 did you and I watch the same thing? Because she literally asks while being told she's going to kill him "so? He was going to kill someone surely he was prepared to die himself" she is absolutely aware that she's going to kill this man, that's her goal

At this point in time, Ferdinand has more money than she does. And now she doesn’t know her limit. In the books she asked Ferdinand several times does she really have that much more mana than other people? And then the Academy it becomes blatantly obvious to her that she has more than other people as she interacts with them.
Ferdinand knew she had a lot. But this demonstrated she had a lot more than even he thought.

@@priestesslucy
So true. I think so too.
The Dark Side of the Force, is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be... unnatural.
I can even bring grass, to a dirt, field.
That dirt field had just held a 'moving tree' that grows and moves at such rapid rates that it drains the nutrients, mana, and life force of anything within its radius or whatever it touches with its branches/tendrils. That entire area had been rendered sterile and bereft of life, mana, or any sort of sustainability. Left alone, it would take years to decades for it to recover. Using her own mana (because there was none ambient in the area) she not only replenished the life force of the area, spawned new life to help sustain it, but was still going when the Head Priest cut her off. It was a pretty good show of her level of power versus what people (more specifically nobles) considered those who have power to begin with.
So it would be more apt to say it could bring back life to an area of death.

How can I learn this power?
@Decade_1703 You must first understand the ways of the force and hone its power. Additionally, you must know the Sith code, which it states "Peace is a lie, there is only passion. Through passion, I gain strength. Through strength, I gain power. Through power, I gain victory. Through victory, my chains are broken. The force shall free me."
just to say how powerful she is, the novel stated that you can only crush those with less mana than you
I feel like that is a mistranslation from the novel you read, because Ferdinand has more mana than she does and he was still hit by it. IIRC, the novel I read (from bookwalker) said that having less mana means you have no defense against it, not that it doesn't affect you at all if you are even or have more. Which makes sense, since Bezewanst is seriously lacking in the mana department.
@@absentmindedjwc crushing was described as some kind of torture against the lesser nobles
but maybe i’m wrong
she still had just almost the same mana than ferdinand thought, or at least they said something like that
@@zatzarat9865 *spoilers of far later in the series*
Even after mastering her 4th level of mana compression during her first year at the academy, she still had less mana than Ferdinand. She's going to continue growing, and will eventually have far more... but even at volume 19, he's still beyond her (though, at that point, he's also learned the new mana compression technique)
He has, however, mentioned that she is very close.
@@absentmindedjwc I think it was just retconned tbh. The Grey priests are also supposed to be taught to never act with violence and how it's forbidden. But 2 novels before that here we are.
@@absentmindedjwc During the winter mana dedication he said she was the only person that could be in the room with him. I assume that was because during the dedication they're both putting out so much power it's dangerous for anyone else.
I would expect him to be stronger. She may have a better mana compression technique, but he's been doing it longer. Plus, the only reason he's in the temple is politics, unlike the other nobles. I think her mana level was originally at the lesser noble stage, but her compression has increased it to mid to upper level.

I can fully agree to this.. My Lady Darth Myne the Vengeful
Rough estimation by inverse square law, she's about 1000x more powerful than Shikza. Except, she didn't even use all of her mana.
It's just the portion.
@@timberhead2069 Nah she still that OP. Potion just restored it after getting sucked out by the tree.
Yup, Shikza has no more than a laynoble, (he was sent to the temple due to lack of mana) on top of not having the ability to compress his mana before being an adult. Myne has unconsciously compressed hers to an insane degree so she could survive for years, always bordering on death. Their mana capacity can’t even be compared ool

She actually helps him become stronger by (spoilers) teaching him a more advanced form of mana suppression (spoilers end).

He lived of course, but Myne also nonchalantly threatened him to keep his mouth shut about what she did to him. I couldn't stop smiling as I read the passage over and over again.

The different take on magic and how mana is used in the world. I've caught up to all of the anime so I am really looking forward to a new season

Yes the animation seems so simple at first, but everything was executed so well. You really could tell the difrence between a trained soldier and a bunch of assistant preists... the assistants got messed up. And Myne's magic is not really fighting... it is one blessed by the gods letting just a little bit lose when she could probaly kill everyone in the room.

It's not so much that she flexed her magical muscle, it's just that Shikza was really that weak. Many of the people there - with the proper prayer - could have managed at least most of what she did (with several likely being able to exceed her). They were surprised to see a priest able to do it, though, since priests are generally pretty weak. The exception to this is Ferdinand, who has a mana capacity above Myne.

I seem to recall that, even after that, she is still slightly behind him. But it is assumed that she catches up (and surpasses him) quickly as time goes on.

Meaning we were ACTUALLY YET TO SEE what would've happened here if Ferdinand didn't stop her. If she would've used maybe a third? Half of her mana? Maybe she would've stopped then? Heck, I bet an entire huge forest would've just sprung out of the ground if she would've continued like this.
I'm scared to know what would've happened if she went all out. 🤯😖
The dark side of mana, can lead you abilities some may see as unnatural...
@@U-1F642 That would be awesome. 🤩
This is going to take a few seasons but in LN she did and overtly...
Going full Darth Rosemyne, while the cannonball goes every which way they wanted... as a yet not introduced character would have said... "shit's crazy" * Wide eyed, drowning in invites *
@@PrograError God, I can't wait to see it. 🤩 WHERE'S SEASON 4 AND 5?!?! 😫

Gooood Gooooood Let the hate flow through you *Evil Laughing Mr. Palpatine*
Myne.
Keep laughing, you’re next.
Just FYI yall, this is more of an economic anime, there is some magic in it but it's far from the main driver.
I see what you did there!
As we get into Part 3 the magic will take a much more central stage in the story (and even more so in Part 4). The economics are still there but they take a little bit of a backseat compared to learning about noble society and magic.
The force choke sound effect was perfect lmao
"You have failed me for the last time, Bishop"
Edit: It's ironic though that the priest was talking mad 💩 and Myne just choked him into oblivion simply because she lost her temper. And that is why you don't play stupid games to win stupid prizes from people who are kind, the kind ones always have a demon packed away behind that face. Remember that.
Goooooooood, Main, gooooooood. Do what must be done.
Hoping there’ll be a season 4 and so on till they feature the entire novel
I do too!
Season 4 is confirmed about 2 weeks ago, it's being done by WIT studio
Poor guy was a car battery and an old one at that... while she is a nuclear power plant and and recently refueled one...
i have watched both season 1 and season 2 and am currently watching season 3 and i must say that music fit the 1st scene perfectly but it doesnt really fit the healing nature of the second scene
To keep the Darth myne thing going I did a medieval take on sidious's theme (which is not my song if you want the link to the song it's in the description above) myne has shown she's more powerful than any noble she's come across so far. This is the only song I could find that really cemented that she's using all this mana but it's not all her mana it's only a fraction of her power. You get what I mean it's like a show of force is what I was shooting for...
Think of it this way. In the expanded universe of Star Wars there have been a number of Sith Lords that have been capable of creating Life, craft the flesh, grow things, as well as twisting them.
loving the music overcast, adds a superb emphasis, well played
Grey Jedi in medieval times
she's a full benevolent Sith, nothing grey about her, as further in the story shows clearly.
That smile though. The dark side is strong with her.
