- He may not be as OP as Ainz or Rimuru, but he's certainly not a Kazuma either. Rudeus is probably one of the more balanced isekai protagonists. So let's take a look at how strong Rudeus is by examining his unique approach to magic.

New video on Mushoku Tensei's Demon Wars is out! ua-cam.com/video/eCik7GTUvEc/v-deo.html
I also don't say Rudeus' name all weird and shit anymore 😂
You should've edited the video, you were killing me every time you said his name, come on man, how didn't you know how to pronounce his name. 😱
Nooooo I genuinely loved the way u said his name😂
@@Arda-kf8nd lol, I mean, how didn't he search for the pronunciation.
Come on man this actually hurts every time you say it, how do you make a video on it without watching the actual show ?
It's not just Rudeus' name that you say weirdly. You put this weird inflection on almost every other word and you sound like you're trying way too hard to say things clearly but not really getting it. It also sounds like you're just reading from a script (and just going with first take) with no real knowledge of what you're talking about. Are you a non-native English speaker?
the most amazing part about rudeus's figurines is that some didnt use a base and were still able to stand up
Zanoba?
The two in one figurine of Roxy that changes pose when you remove the cloak. 👌
Well those are made of stone so he can adjust weigh points. Althought it is indeed a nice feat
What’s a base?
@@jos7066 a stand for the figures so they wont fall
In the novel I recall they mentioned that creating stone figures with high detail requires tonnes of mana and it means that he was practicing and leveling up his mana capacity when he was making figurines
the fact that his mana pool got bigger was just not abt that he made figurines and stuff but actually that he started to learn magic at a very small age
@@razashah5936 have you read the novel? guess not. Check out Julie's case
@@StephanthePelted up to the 10 th volume
but up to that i guess a individual can grasp how his/her mana pool increases
now i dont know what the case is of juile but according to rudeus and things that i learned up to the point is that of what i explained before
if there's more to it than what i thought and explained then sry for blabbering out😆
@@razashah5936 its not outright said that making figurines = training (or i dont really recall it), but we know that he train by expending his mana.
and people later introduced in the series will have trouble making figurines the way Rudeus made. And its said that it's related to mana capacity.
Conclusion, you need alot of mana to do figurines and Rudeus indirectly trained his mana capacity doing so.
@@StephanthePelted but while making figurines was also a part but the major thing that i believe (and is also somewhat right) that he started from a very age .. like around 2
figurines came a bit considerably later to scene .. its not like he started out with that
though keep in mind that i am not disregarding the fact it was a factor but it was not high in a pedestal to consider a major one, while making figurines took a large amount of mana but he started at a point where he already had the minimum amount to start making figurines with
It should be noted that Rudeus Practicing making his figures did a lot more for him than you'd think. What makes those details so difficult, is that for some reason, the smaller scale you try to manipulate the scale to be, the more mana it costs. The smaller and more intricate a part you're trying to make, the harder or more flexible you try to make it, each action requires him to constantly funnel high levels of mana into the stone to shape it. He discovered that for some reason, making spells smaller makes them cost much more mana, just like making them bigger would, using water ball. His proficiency with earth magic definitely shot up, but he could expend and thus gain far more mana making figurines than any of his other magic, to the point that for a bit he was even able to expend his mana supply completely, until it outgrew this again. The fact that he outgrew it at all is insane because of the monstrous mana cost of making the dolls. Even making a relatively simple doll makes casting advanced rank magic look easy both in mana cost and skill. This is highlighted later on when some characters try to replicate his feats. Even very high level mages with voiceless incantation find it basically impossible to copy rudeus's accidental training method specifically because of how young he started.
And honestly, that's an important advantage that Rudeus has that is nearly impossible to replicate - being able to start training his magic - both control and capacity - as an infant. Only a complete lunatic would start training an ordinary baby in magic, so Rudeus got a really significant head start there because he was reincarnated. Just being born with a developed mind capable of understanding the world around him without all the starting from zero knowledge and understanding that babies start with was a cheat in its own right.
He was a RPG nerd in his past life. Had all his previous memories, and a mature mindset at birth. That's why his understanding was more developed than others. It's a simple explanation actually.
@@richardkenan2891 also, given the staple that the amount of mana someone has is determined at birth, very few people would have the time or incentive to keep casting water ball day after day over and over again until fainting. People with low mana would probably give up on magic altogether, and people with high mana would start actual training and learning new abilities, while respecting their own limits because no one wants to be knocked out after training every single day.
That combined with the efficiency of casting spells using wands meant that wizards would hardly ever (intentionally) exhaust their mana pool. So even if their mana pool had increased over the years, they probably wouldn't even notice it, or just assume this is due to their wand, which surely wouldn't be the same wand they used as an apprentice
@@richardkenan2891 !BIG SPOILER ABOUT BACKGROUND LORE!:
Rudeus body is special though.
Paul would usually only have two daughters and no son. We know that from Orsted. Laplace (great demon magician, pretty much the demon lord) uses magic that meddles with fate to make it possible for him to be reborn. That magic creates vessels (fetuses), until there is one fitting for him. Pauls first son was such a vessel and would usually been stillborn, because it was not a perfect fit for Laplace and thus had no soul.
So our middle age japanese dudes soul took over that "empty" body.
That means the body is special in terms that it has the potential to have a ridiculous amount of magic. Not everyones body could handle/store such amounts of magic.
BUT Rudeus still had to train hard to increase the amount of magic to the ridiculous amounts he has. Without training, the bodys potential would have been wasted.
This "body of Laplace" is also the reason he can not use magic to enhance his physical abilities. Because Laplace was also unable to do that. (Badigadi tells that to Rudi)
that explains so much, thanks@@teramalik7260
In terms of power:
Rudeus is tied with one other person for highest magic capacity, the problem is he doesn’t have the means to output his mana fast enough without destroying his body.
Whats super cool about this world is that as busted as Rudeus seems, his enemies are even more so.
Not even that, he is weaker than most, because he, unlike most OP people, if you sneeze on him, he dies
@@Akira-cd2qs Im talking towards the end of the story, in another universe he becomes untouchably powerful, once he masters gravity magic, in our universe at his peak hes stronger than fighting god, but without the regeneration.
If he had ample time to prep he could probably beat dragon god. But in most one on one confrontations he loses. Especially to sword gods.
@@smalldevils2929I don't think he could beat Orsted even with prep time, but he could probably force him to use mana
He actually has more mana than laplace according to kishirisu
@@Akira-cd2qs long story short
his durability is shit
Indeed, Unique.
@Layla stop
@Layla just why
Is it one of those "send this chain or your mom will die things" ? Mine is already dead. Or is one of those where you yourself die? I'm curious?
@@longwaydown6959 sorry for your loss :(
The same start as begining after the end.
This is something I'd like to see more often, using the properties of physics to achieve a goal, usually more efficiently than just brute forcing it.
Yeah like when he uses a fire attack i want to see him supply it with pure oxygen to ramp up the heat to some truely scary numbers
@@kiyvro2601 the thing is, Rudy isn’t a genius. He’s not like the guy from wise mana grandson, who knows all the chemistry. Rudy’s school education ended at 14, and he wasn’t the best in school back then.
@@getawayfromme44 Oh I didnt know that/forgot, while thats a shame I guess its a good way to keep him somewhat nerfed lol. As I was writing my first comment I was thinking about some cool ways he could ramp up the effectiveness of him combining magic.
@@getawayfromme44 uhm just confused, isn't he actually genius? He thought that he was above average and he got to a fight to some bully which backfired greatly. Since then he got bullied and he interacted with others less and less. He's actually genius (which makes sense considering that he utilized chemistry despite being out of school for decades) but his education is pretty low since he didn't continued going to school. At least that's what I learned about watching mushoku tensei stuffs. Feel free to correct me.
@@sixjhontongalamar979 no. He was a computer nerd, but he struggled in classes. He was already fat, so he probably got bullied a bit, but what had happened is that one of the big bullies had cut in line, and since he had a sense of justice, he tried calling him out. So he got the shit beat out of him, was stripped naked, tied up, and photographed.
He probably knows some base chemistry, since he was stated to have tried many hobbies, and scoured the internet, so he might have read some wiki pages. Like, he knows how to make figurines because he tried picking it up as a hobby before, but dropped it before he got advanced.
The thing is he never stated or wanted to be the “best”, he was always just satisfied with being good enough to get by
author wants more money by making female lead sequel which none will read because there will be no rudeus
@@srijan1999 ye how dare the author tryna fuking make a sequel to put food in the table , fuking author should just do nothing get no income
@@srijan1999 this argument is so dumb, if it's good quality people will read it, we are on fucking final fantasy XVI and (most of them) don't even connect with each other. You just want to complain about women
@@srijan1999 I mean it makes sense here as it's his descendants but it's not like Rey from Star Wars or something
Well, partly because whenever he feels the best, he gets slapped right after. Lol
Orsted said Rudeus had huge potential in magic(the limit of his mana storage is very big and he can easily learn magic because his body adapts to it) due to the Laplace factor which was in him
why you spoiling for people
The laplace factor was more limited than that. He would if left alone have had only about 150% of the normal mana capacity. His learning is partially due to young brain, but likely also a natural quirk of the brain he was newly born with. He very likely has the brain of a gifted person, merely enhanced with his old memories.
I've read the novel.
Man.
Rudeus is literally life experience.
When you read. It feels like you grow with him to his old age and experience all journey his had.
Truly a masterpiece if i would say
Indeed, the best isekai by far
I used to think that, then I read TBATE
@@Conspirer_ is that novel finished?
I remember read it until heaven training arc or something? If i don't remember it wrong
It's so boring and i decided to drop it
@@avioracrown6967 It’s not finished but it really picks up after the training arc at Epotheus
It’s up to volume 9 rn and I’d say volume 8 was the best novel so far
They say you never stop learning for your entire life,
Mushoku tensei is a training arc
And then there’s volume 10-11 (I think) in the wn lmao
@@sabbag9214 that's training to become best husbando
The whole story is just him learning and researching more things
@@miteigi8334 oh
And after it finally ends story takes a time skip directly to the end of his life...
I think that the novels and the anime itself strongly imply that "amount of mana is determined at birth" is a missconception too. To me it seems like the show is telling us that the more you train mana at an early age the more mana you get as a grown up, that's why both Rudeus and Sylphy are incredibly powerful mages
it is directly said by certain character later on, rudy says about how he thought mana was determined at birth and properly corrected that that was indeed a missconception, that the BASE mana was determined at birth but by using one's own one is able to expand it, just that, in rudy and silphy case, they had a special property that appears at random in different people that lets them ahve a bigger ceiling when expanding their mana but as drawback,t hey cant wear Touki which fighters use to coat their attacks and body with their mana, which is a huge drawback because touki can be letal and ist he reason why swordmen from God Style almost wear no armor, because their attacks are just so strong they just one hit one kill things
Nah your base mana is determined at birth through heritage. The misconception which is later mentioned canonically is that you can actually grow your mana size. So it is determined at birth what you start with but not what you could possibly have in the future
@@HaxeRainIt's never said that sylphy can't use toki (fighting spirit or battle aura is a better translation). Only Rudy found that problem. They also don't have the exact same special property, sylphy is an oddity, but rudy is the only one who could be born with that much mana. Rudy took the place of a miscarriage because the original fetus couldn't take that kind of potential.
@@Jaker788 Neither of them can use Toki as a side effect of having the Lapace Factor.
Nope, in anime it's not yet there, but in manga it's explained. Everyone is born with a basic mana pool. By using that mana pool you can increase it, but ONLY in childhood, probably until 10. So Rudy having a basic mana pool larger then it should be allowed for a human (given that his spirit basically took the body of a still-born because the baby had too much mana for the infant spirit to survive), and starting to use magic earlier that it should be possible (because he has the memories of a 20+ yo man), exponentially increased his mana pool. It should also be noted that mana it's like life in that world, so even if you don't use your mana it will still increase during your childhood, but not that exponentially as if you continuously empty it by casting spells and not by just living. Anyways, long-story short, if you teach kids from very early age, they will be amazing mages like Sylphy. If you get isekaid with a huge base-mana and start learning before kids learn to say "mama", then you get exponentially even more mana then them, compared to a God.
Oh, and it's worth-noting that also voiceless incantation can only be learn as a kid, kinda how languages are easier to catch in infancy. You can learn them in adulthood, but you'll probably have an accent your whole life (especially if the languages are vastly different). It's the same here, Ruxy could learn to shorten the incantation as an adult, but only kids can learn how to do it voiceless.
In the end, it's kinda suss if you ask me, that Rudy discovered this. I mean, generations upon generations, and they never tried to learn children how to magic ASAP? And none of these children noticed how it feels to make a spell to make it voiceless?
Rudeus is basically like if someone got to become an incredible athlete because they somehow knew to start practicing right from birth. He has an adult level of understanding and ability to plan but a child's physical & neural plasticity
12:35 it's important to note that just like making spells bigger costs more mana, making spells smaller than a certain size also takes more mana
yeah which is why his figures required a ton of mana, they had many small details and he also put in a bunch of extra mana to make the stone super strong so thin bits won't break easily.
Which makes no sense, it should just become stupidly unstable and hard to control.
@Creamy Saying it is so is not explaining.
What do they teach you in school make you believe it works like that.
@Creamy No! I am not, and you asking this means you understood nothing.
It also shows that I might be right in questioning your education if that is what you got from it.
@Creamy Okay since your mental capacity seems to be less than the average 4 year old I will try EXPLAIN it for you as simple as possible.
An explanation is not just statement a, b, c and so on are something or a combination of it, but also a reasoning why something is that way.
That reasoning does not have to be scientific in nature it can also be a solely subjective opinion.
But it goes into further detail than x is.
It should be x is whatever, because k, l, m, n or so.
Now the original post answer me this, at ehat point does it explain anything thing it makes two statements, but gives no reasoning why that would be the case.
You on the otherhand don't question it, you stopped thinking and simply accepted them without further reasoning as truth.
Worse of all you started to defend it for seemingly no reason and simply said everything needed was explained without seemingly going ever back to the original statement to read and think about it.
Since you claim I am bringing science into fantasy I will just tell you this.
Science is questioning things first and foremost and not simply accepting everything.
There was once scientific census that Einstein and his theory were stupid.
Which developed in the census it is pure genius.
This changed when people realised that you can only really apply his work on the macro cosmos and not on the quantum level.
Now we are even further India had major issue's with their satellites when they included relativity in their course calculation, but it suddenly worked when they ignored it.
For fantasy there exist its own set of rules, that works and can be accepted by the reader as long as the author follows his or her own established rules, if they constantly break their own rules people will have problems with it.
dude was like
I dont need an incantation circle, i have the periodic table of elements.
God I'm shit at school even if I get isekaid I won't be that powerful
If I can get isekaid and have three wishes (that can't be too op) then I'll choose max level skill in arcana, medicine, and survival.
I'll just sell medicine like in slime 300
@@mysterious_truth6907 wait until a 1000 years
I loved the series ever since 2013, I'm glad that after ten whole years, the series finally got an anime adaptation. Just a crumb has been introduced in the anime, and I'm excited to see the reactions of new fans. Although, I wonder what people will think with all the more inappropriate scenes coming soon, I'm sure a lot of people might be disgusted. The author did an amazing job with balancing out love, slice of life, lore, action, and making sure that Rudeus maintains his humanity and isn't overpowered like most isekais. The author only focuses on this series, with multiple spin-offs like Roxy before she met Rudeus, and an explanation to a future opponent. I recommend reading the manga, as the manga has great art and visualization, while being ahead for 1 1/2 seasons worth, although, it's a monthy chapter series, so if you can't wait, read the light or web novels, that's how the much earlier fans know the story. I'm sad that the main series reached a conclusion, but I still loved the bitter sweet ending. I enjoy reading the manga and the spin-offs, while the anime is airing. video note:I know it's a narration mistake, but it still made me twitch when I heard the narrator pronounced Rudeus Greyrat.
I have to disagree about the Manga. I made that mistake, to the detriment of my wallet. I had to reread everything in the light novel, and I’m really thankful I did. If you can, read everything out and either switch to the web novel and commit to a later light novel reread, or just wait for the light novel to be adapted further. The quality difference between either version and the manga is immediately noticeable, even if some require research to find a decent translation.
I disagree with you about the manga I think they did a horrible adaptation compared to the anime especially considering the fact that they skip a whole volume of the light novel idk how they did it but all the changes they made in the manga were terrible and cut out most of the interesting content and changed how a lot of the good content actually played out while it's not a horrible story the manga feels very lifeless and not fleshed out compared to the LN and anime
@@solar1751 yeah, the manga sucks. And while they do cut out an entire arc/novel (one of the best for character development too, smh), they actually do have another "spinoff" manga for the depressed magician arc, but still, the manga definetly is not worth the read, people are way better off going with the WN but the best option would be the official LN

I love your Cut Content videos and Mushoku Tensei would be a great series to cover in-depth.
Yea please do this. Been waiting for you to do this for a long time.
Sadly he started getting copyright strikes so he stopped doing cut content series (atleast for certain shows)
That would be great if he could
Guess you didn’t see his announcement saying this is the series he will be covering for the rest of the season. This will be his main series just like slime was and shield hero before that. I believe he knows the absolute banger this anime and novel are so I believe this will be covered in depth. Or at least that’s what I believe
I’d especially like episode 11 to get a cut content of possible. I noticed a ton of things that weren’t really made clear or didn’t quite have the same level of importance as they should’ve.
This was so informative and cool. I knew Rudeus was an amazing character. However, I didn’t realize how brilliant he actually was and how he applied science to magic. The anime didn’t really show the capacity of his knowledge that well. Thank you for this video! I look forward to seeing more! Subscribed! 💙
I have to say-This guy is great at dictation! His words are so clear and defined in their pronunciation, and I find it hard to understand some youtubers, this is so satisfying to listen to. Thank you for the deep dive into Rudeus!

Just read the light novel washed version, but still he can be frustrating in that as well. If you try reading the original, his monologue is so Cringe that you just can't find him that likable, you'll find yourself screaming what a piece of shit. Also sometimes his personality does not quite align you can really see the rawness of the work. Had to ignore so much just to get to the interesting stories.
Spoilers ahead....,.....
Also the worst one plothole in this has something with Eris, being a Sword King to the day she died she leveled so fast yet can't get at least to sword emperor when in the alternate reality she reached god.
I read the web novel and he really doesn't get into detail into it. It's all very surface level concepts which he incorporates into the imaging he projects in his mind to visualize or cast the spell more efficiently.
@@WisdomLearner Idk personally I prefer the raw version, taking away the uncomfortable parts that makes rudy such a bad person in the beginning takes away from rifujin’s point that even such a piece of shit such as him, if given a second chance can change himself into a better person. Also I read the web novel and i’m up to volume 22 so the translations were likely not as clear as the light novels. But i’ll read the raw novels after i finish the web novels and side stories.
@@WisdomLearner which web novel was that mentioned?
And why does Eris need to get stronger,though? She's fine with the current strength,I also think it would have her beat Jino to become Sword God,heck,she might even be Sword God level if she did want to get stronger,and if it was her aim,Rudeus did say she kept Training.
@@Mukichi If you really wanna know in the webnovel she died at sword king level(dies by old age by the way no worries), while the alternate reality version of her was near Sword God level, that is why it doesn't make any sense. As her progress was so fast, and we know she reach that level at an alternate version of her. The alternate reality by the way is that Rudeus was being piece of shit and his alternate version the he was supposed to become travelled back in time to fix him, that is why we get the nice ending instead of the shit one.
the thing i love is that later on he is known by an specific fighting style, and one that is very rarely used my MCs, but it is obivously one of the most effective, and using one of the less used elements by MCs.

Nearly all of his power is capable for all people in the universe. His only real special skill is having an adult brain in a child body so he can apply his sponge brain.

@@justicedunham4088 Yes but in rudy"s case it's special as he significantly grew his mana cap at a young age. Giving him the advantage of a higher capacity than others.
@@spiderace7994 But unlike most anime, especially isekai, this is a feat anyone could potentially accomplish if they were better informed about the actual rules of magic
@@justicedunham4088 True, I wonder why the people of Mushoku Tensei are so uninformed of magic. Is there actual people who know the rules that we'll see in the future?
@@spiderace7994 I’m not 100% sure. But I’m guessing it’s a lot harder to increase your mana as an adult like it’s harder to learn most skills as an adult. So before Rudy, almost no one had tried. He is literally a toddler after all.
He is definitely OP. He time travelled to warn his younger self.
A couple of mistakes here. First, his mana pool was insane for this world from the get-go, actually the mana Rudeus Greyrat was borned with was too great for a new-born spirit to withstand, Rudeus should be a stillborn and die right after his birth, and then the soul that got Isekaid found the stillborn baby and basically replaces his soul. So yeah, his mana it's so big that it shouldn't be possible to be born with it.
"Greater then 50 times"?, the author itself say that comparing Roxy's mana (a king mage, she probably have like 50 times more mana then the normal mage), to Rudeus, it's like comparing an apple to the moon. He basically never run out of mana. The reason why he can't master swordplay it's also because of his large mana pool. Normally, when people train their body, they unconsciously learn how to "wear" their mana, it's called touki. But Rudeus mana it's so large, if he were to use a touki, his body would basically explode. Later in the series, to make up for Touki, he develops some kind of mecha at the magic academy, it was called MK1, that was the only thing that consumed enough mana for Rudy to run out of it. Most mages would be drained of mana by just touching it, the most powerful will run out of gas in under 1 minute. Rudy wear it with no problem, while using his inbuilt weapon, a gatteling gun, that throws like 10 emperor-level earth-bullets per second, Roxy would probably run out of gas after 2 such spells, and Sylphy maybe after 4 such spells.
His mana is so large it is compared with the literal gods in his world, it is said to be greater then Orsteds, the dragon God, and Laplace, the demon God.
Sooo, yeah, Rudeus can basically be a God, but because of his personality and failure in the last life, he vastly under-evaluates himself for basically the whole series. And if he could cast voiceless healing magic, he would literally be immortal with his mana-pool, probably the reason why author-kun didn't want him to be able to.
If he hadn't trained his mana capacity, he would only have had slightly more than the average person. The sheer stupid amount he ends up with was entirely from the training and Orsted confirms this.
Don't forget the quagmire we saw him use when he saved Eris.
That spell becomes one of his BIGGEST advantages to the point he actually gets the nickname quagmire.
Giggity?
@@msealol Giggity
GIGGITY
GIGGITY!!
All right!!!!😂
Love how u broke everything down to help us understand every little bit of it thank you and keep up the hard work!!!
The dude's mana supply exceeded the Demon God Laplace, because he train continuously until the age of 5 and the Laplace factor, which is basically a trait released to the world when Laplace was sealed, so he could one day be revived. The Laplace factor gives you traits similiar to Laplace, such as green hair, large mana supply, prolonged life, etc etc.
The thing that increased his mana capacity the most was his doll making. The specific thing was in the material he created for Roxy's staff so that it did not break. Without that he might have had only about 20% of the capacity by the series end. An inch of what is about the diameter of pencil lead in a day, draining him. The ofc the.... project later on utilizing this nigh-unbreakable material to more effective purposes...
I really liked that there's more manga/anime that introduce almost a magi-tech level of understanding. Reminds me a bit like Wiseman's Grandson where the MC uses modern day science to modify magic. The whole idea that because the MC knows the detailed workings of nature and some chemical reactions that applying it to magic gives him a lot more variables to work with vs a regular caster who only thinks in basic concepts.
Magic-tech is fascinating in that each can shore up the weaknesses of the other. Magic can rather easily produce the holy grail of science: perpetual motion machines. Magic has no friction, allows the translation of force without a physical median, the perfectly efficient storage of energy and the perfectly lossless conversion of energy between states. The downside of magic is that it generally requires a human's active concentraiton, is limited in scale by the potential factor of it's caster and is difficult to scientifically research and advance as a field of study. Science, on the other hand, can turn an external energy source into any manufactured good and can perform computations at a scale that dwarfs the capacity of human intellect. The machinations of a mechanist march on long after their demise, where a dead mage's magic fades with their passing. The two trades complement each other nicely and can quite easily establish infinite feedback loops.
Great video! Just two corrections:
1. Magic power being inherited is actually true. The more talented your heritage is, the more you'll likely have superior mana. The one that _is_ incorrect is that it's set in stone. Rudy was able to increase his by exhausting his mana every single day and experimenting but...he also has an advantage but that's season 2 stuff. Like how athletes professional athletes train every day, but talent and luck has great influence on where they are.
2 is a little spoiler y:
2. 50x the advanced magician is super low ball estimate of his mana capacity and the line wasn't even about saying that. It said that he used a magic circle that will drain an advanced magician for 50 times. Considering that:
a. he doesn't even know it's that taxing for ordinary people until it's pointed out
b. he processes around the same number every single day
c. it takes around 10 days for him to recover from draining his mana
These, combining with his future arsenal that's purposefully created with zero regards to mana consumption (not even Roxy and Sylphy are able to equip the nerfed versions despite both having high mana capacity themselves), it's safe to say that the actual number is absurdly higher than that.
as note, Kirishika when he meets rudeus, what she calls disgusting, is how his mana pool at the time he met her was already equal or bigger than Demon God Laplace, who is the being that took the world into a massive war for centuries and by his spells could massively change the world environment, the issue of rudy with that is he cant use the same way of wielding mana as Laplace because of different body types, but he learns to use tricks such as condensing spells until tehy reach absurd strenght, specially his stone cannon which is one of his insignia spells
@@HaxeRain if Rudy was a scientist he will become the strongest.
Isnt it because of laplace factor? I think orsted explained this
@@carloalbaytar6186 shhhh dont mention that, this was about how much mana rudy has, not about how he got it
@carlo albaytar lapas factor shaped his potential but not his outcome.
Orsted, who is one of the most knowledgeable characters in the world was still baffled by the idea that rudy could master the chantless version of a spell after only using the chant once.

If I had to rank Rudeus power it would probably be 8 out of 10. Mainly because of his knowledge from his previous life, & The Magic aptitude in the current world he lives in.🤔
@UCSmw4G55JdSUZnQb0vkpD2A In his previous life in School with Science & he watched tons of Anime & played Video Games which help him understand the fundamentals of magic a lot faster.
@@user-em6ie2be7x hahaha how powerful does nuclear magic is
@@brexiantabacla1771 you’ll find out :)
If he is genius same as Shin Wolford he could make an op magic spells
I would actually rank his abilities more of a nine of a possible 10... For as I just mentioned in my own comment on this video Rudeus really is sort of like a magical old west gunfighter at this point who's insanely skilled at the quick draw.. I mean what you're doing your starting your chant / incantation he's just thinking about the spell firing it off and killing you before you knew what hit you. You add in the powers of the new demon eye has given him and you find yourself facing an opponent who can quickly counter any attack with speed and precision but who could more than likely also use your own defensive movements against you by firing off one shot that would force you to dodge or move in a direction but at the same time firing off a second shot that would be heading right for the area you tried to dodge to more or less tricking you into walking into the attack.
So yeah I would rank him a 9 out of 10 due to all that.
"That's pretty much everything we know about his power so far."
*laughs in WN and LN*
Facts, only anime Iv ever read the full light novel too. Rudi can one shot a demon lord by 16.
Alt Rudeus is basically the Doom Slayer
Amazing content as always. This channel deserves more subs and support
Mushoku Tensei is the only series that I began with the manga, finished with the books and returned to experience the anime. Truly my favorite of all time.
I've been waiting for Mushoku Tensei content ever since the dawn of time. Finally at last, my wishes come true
I like the lead-in pointing out that all Rudy brought with him to this new life is what he picked up of scientific knowledge as a guy who grew up in the modern world. He doesn't even have specialized knowledge of any sort, having slacked off from school.
It's really quite amazing to compare his work ethic on learning magic to his prior life's work ethic of "nothing."
I mean who wouldn't be obsessed with they're new "super power"
Elementary school knowledge no less
@@cesarpedrazamartinezgarcia725 And some tv info
I wouldn't say slacked off from school, he basically got terrorized into not going to school so his knowledge is Elementary school, middle school and internet memes
@@therodyman700 Even though he didn't go to school after his bullies push him past the limit he still tried to find a job like sculpting and writing but he lost his motivation after a few months of each.
I really like that you add credit footage at the end of your video it gives it a definite sense of this is the end ...two thumbs up
Rudeus is powerful without being too overpowered for his current level. The development is masterpiece.
You're right, but there's actually more nuance to this topic. Rudeus actually has overpowered traits/properties (namely his absurd mana pool), but he has equally devastating weaknesses and limits that don't let him be so.
For one, he can't actually use much of his mana (proportionally) in one go; Humans aren't built for having so much mana. So instead, he can fire a bunch of REALLY good spells over time.
Secondly, he CANNOT muster/conjur Touki (its referred to as fighting spirit or something). It's basically something all the swordspeople can 'wear' (like armour) do to increase their physical abilities AND durability. I think its something instinctual/natural to most people in the Mushoku Tensei verse, and is just much more developed in martial artists. Basically, Rudeus HAS to avoid a strong attack, while a Touki user can tank it if they try/train hard enough.
So yes, overpowered, but highly exploitable by experienced fighters.
Demon King in reference to Rudeus' massive mana pool: "How Disgusting!"
I hate that the anime didn't clarify that's what she was referring to. In the light novel she not only remarks on it as being disgusting, but tells him that he's just like Laplace
She was referring to his astral/spiritual form, (which is what he looks like what he was back on earth)
@@avidyoutubeuser1904 incorrect, she can't see that form. Only Hitogami can see it. Moreover in the light novel she specifically says the amount of mana he has is disgusting and compares him to Laplace
@@qapiojg The reason she called Rudeus disgusting is entirely something else, nothing to do with his mana reserves
@@avidyoutubeuser1904 She is talking about something for which the first clue is in Volume 15 of the Light Novel or 17 of the Web Novel. And the final clue is at the very endo of the epilogue. So, no.
Btw, while Aqua Heartia is design specifically for water magic, it still amplifies other elements by a significant amount. IIRC it was by a factor of 3 (feel free to correct me if I'm wrong)
5 for water, 3 for earth and wind, 2 for fire. Fire was always his weakest element with the staff because it runs counter to water.
@@qapiojg That's exactly it. Thanks!
No your right lol
1:20 Rimuru didn't start out with most of his abilities he just gained them rilly fast
This is the vibe I've always felt in the anime, that Rudeus is simply a brilliant and natural mage. Not much more than that. He will probably grow to be one of the most powerful people, but at the moment he's probably just in the top 20% in terms of raw power? Maybe 30, since he has trouble with melee without his friends.
You put it perfectly, He isnt some overpowered protag. Did you read the LN?
@@relyth8well...
Spoiler:
His future self is a greatest mages of this world. He could controll all types of magic. Even fuckin gravity. If he lived a bit longer, he could improve his gravi magic in to black holes and time bending magic( I know he used time magic, but he could master it).
Rudeus is glass canon. His magic is strong enough to shook Gods, but he is not even faster than Paul, he could injured just as easily as fodder like Aisha. He is genius, but in real combat he can't even see the movement blur of advanced rank sword god, his processing speed is almost no different than normal human.
Without his armor, a gang of intermediate swordsmen have a chance finishing him off.
Yes, please make more Mushoku Tensei videos. This is one of the best Isekai ever made. After reading all the web novels and getting up to date with the light novels I have so much hope this anime will stick it to the end.
Well rudeus's mana reserves are as big as Laplace, the guy who destroyed supards. If rudeus learns tricks and different types of magic rather than focusing on practicing the same thing, he'll grow much stronger
The issue with growing stronger by learning new spells are that the number of people who can teach him saint ranked or higher level magic, as well as the fact that they are usually large scale AoE spells and therefore to dangerous to use when fighting alongside allies.
@@lucasvanwijngaarden670 well rudeus does feel a shortage in overall skill in one of his fights which cost him quite a lot. I've read the ln and I hope comment didn't spoil anything too much
The problem is that while he has a massive amount of mana, he can't use it very efficiently. If he tried to use magic like Laplace did, he would explode. Later on they liken it to strapping a jets fuel tank to a random car. It can drive basically forever, but it can't go that fast. And if you strap a jet engine on as well, the car would fall apart.
Well the key thing you're awesome missing here is sometimes it's better to have a select few number of skills that you fully understand to the point that you can use them in highly creative ways than it is to have countless skills that you're not truly a master of.. I mean his ability to combine spells in ways that are quite unorthodox honestly would give him a tactical advantage in a fight due to the fact that most spell casters and swordsman may underestimate him as well as the reach and power of his spells leading ultimately to their defeat.

@@adem1829 no, he doesn’t already have it. What he had was an extremely high potential magic capacity.
The only reason why he has the highest is because of the fact he was conscious from birth. If you tried to get a normal child to train, they wouldn’t be focused. Since he could focus, he was able to train from a young age.
@@adem1829 nope he got it by pushing his limit at very young age. It was mention by the demon king that he has abnormal mana , because of mana training he did. His mana by the way Rival Lapras or some other demon lord

Great anime, most defiantly recommend.
Hisoka he is gonna grow up so leave
Awesome video. Thank you for helping me understand Rudeus's magical powers more!
40-50x more mana than the average advanced mage is a massive understatement,
in his rematch with Orsted, not only is he powering a suit of magic armor that would completely drain even Roxy or Sylphy in less than a minute, he started the fight with the King tier spell, Lightning, and followed it up with a literal nuke, and proceeded to rapid fire the emperor level beefed up stone cannons as well as disturb magic. Also, for comparison, Roxy, a king-class water mage was drained after one use of Lightning.
just marathoned the first 11 episodes today plus the first episode of the second core, this show is a masterpiece, the only thing it lacks is more episodes :D, the second core already kicks off with great new stuff, I won't spoil anything though.

Aqua hertia's scale works both ways, but active control in power, size and speed increases mana consumption, aqua hertia also scaled his control, as such it was actually much harder for him to master fine control over the staff, where when he tried to minimise the water ball, he ended up making the water ball the size of fine droplets

MUSHOKU TENSEI is a truly amazing anime
Look, we all want a scientist in an isekai anime. Like the ones from magineer, the way ahead, castle kingside, and technoheretic.
Dont bother mentioning kenja no mago, that one has dense mc it overshadows his scientific magic exploit.
Lol what i want is the Spanish inquisition isekai destroying every heresy in is pat. No more cute monster girl just pure human domination!
I wouldn't say that MC from Kenja no Mago was dense. At the end of the first season he confessed to that girl with blue hair and then they got engaged (it was fully intentional and not some misunderstanding or harem nonsense). Also while it was generic, I still give it credit that the MC wasn't some god with cheat powers but just a guy who knew a little more about natural phenomena and physics. After learning gimmicks behind his spells other mages from his class could perform them too. It was terribly generic that is a fact, but I still think that it deserves more attention than many others of its kind. To speak frankly, I have seen worse, much worse.
@@2ley695 isekai cheat magician comes to mind. MC is absurdly OP to the point of ridiulousness and the saving grace being his female companion also being somewhat op but to a lesser extent, however she at least puts her scientific understanding of chemistry and physics to good use. And even then, they're only high school aged iirc so that understanding isnt that different from Rudy's.
"Magical power is inherited" this statement wasn't wrong. Rudeus body was actually meant to reincarnate the demon god Laplace which failed. That was why MC got that body which was soulless, otherwise it was supposed to be a stillborn baby. As we learned from the dragon god that Rudeus wasn't meant to be born.
Roxy final test wasnt to see if he can maintain it for a hour, more like she just wanted to see if he can cast the spell equal to her power.
roxy sama only wants rudy to be emperor class magician and conquer the labyrinth together
I didn’t enjoy it’s source material but you really make me want to try the anime.

I like your content, no matter what it is you’re talking about.
My apologies it is long 😓
I’m just giving an example of power scaling in the world of mushoku tensei so Idk if this is a spoiler but I’ll try not too
in the world of mushoku tensei magicians are currently weaker in the era in which rudeus is in due to having to say incantations which take time to say, where a swordsman can easily make the distance to chop up a magician before he says a full incantation in which a magician always needs a party, also in which if i remember correctly a person can be advanced in the sword like the water-god style but a magician at that level will be compared to it as an “advance class” magician in water or something like that to show it’s compared to the sword style as a class if I’m not wrong and am remembering what i read around a year ago, but remember rudeus made a new style of fighting as a magician in which he pretty much won a 1v2 against advanced levels in the sword (the same level as Paul in that style) in attempt to save eris he technically lost due to loss of focus near the end and ended up being saved by ghislaine but what he did is basically impossible in the eyes of a normal person in the era he lives in, he even got praised by ghislaine (remember Paul said he could never beat ghislaine) in that style showing rudeus is probably a prodigy in that world considering how they rank magicians to sword styles in mushoku tensei, and I’m not lying I’m pretty sure Paul tried dissing magicians in the anime in order to get Rudy to try and learn the ways of the sword during his 1st birthday party but his mother zennith looked kinda mad at Paul in which he stopped dissing magicians showing how Paul who thinks magicians are inferior to the sword in combat and he is advanced rank in 3 different sword god styles, although even Paul praised rudeus after their fight saying he has good battle instincts and doesn’t even know if he would be able to beat rudeus in the near future, so i won’t say how powerful rudeus is or will become but he is in a world where as much of a prodigy he is, he almost died in an ally trying to retrieve eris, meaning having strength and even being a prodigy in that world is meaningless if you die, can’t wait until the anime catches up with the novel or even the manga
So being advanced in a sword style is the same as being advanced in any type of magic? Right me if i’m wrong, just wanted to make sure.
Also can you or anyone reading this explain to all the anime onlys what is the laplace factor is? Would surely be appreciated. 😇
@@dzariffhafidzi9774 not including magicians like Rudy, I’m talking about average magicians who have to enchant spells, there is really no difference between sword and magic, in certain situations one can have an upper hand on each other like close range will be better for the sword and long range will be better for magicians, also area damage will go to magicians bcuz of higher ranked spells but the higher ranked the spells the longer the enchantment, although it’s very rare to even be that high level ranked as a magician, enchant less magic is the fastest magic so far even roxy as high ranked she is she still can’t do enchant less magic also Rudy is currently in his own league rn in magic casting speed, for example he had Paul on his toes when they fought in close combat which no magician could probably do all due to having to enchant but rudeus did still lose due to inexperience but he is probably the best close combat magician in that world rn bcuz he can use magic and understands the basic of what sword users can do
Laplace Factor will be explained in the future and i guess it might be a spoiler but read if you must
Laplace factor is a unique trait, people who have a certain appearance or feature that Laplace from the past will be revived into the future, for example green hair, but just bcuz you have those features does not mean you are one who possesses the Laplace factor
How come you didn't mention the gift of the demon eye he got in the most recent episode? Or the fact that his offensive magic actually has a strong tactical advantage over other magicians in the world due to the fact that he doesn't have to really use an incantation circle or a chant to do them. I mean yes the major advantage is it save some time, but that honestly shouldn't be overlooked.. for that honestly makes him kind of like a quick draw artist in this world. Pair that with the demon eye and are protagonist becomes a real force to be reckoned with due to the fact that he can now anticipate his opponent's movements with a higher level of proficiency on top of being able to cast a spell faster and then most mages in the world could ever hope to pull off via a chant or an incantation circle.
Like I said to me this makes him more like an old west gunfighter who's highly skilled at the quickdrawal.But yeah.. what are your thoughts on this.
He said he'd only talk about his powers from part 1
It is true that the eye is a great advantage, but the advantage is 1 second, you have to know how to react just by knowing the future for 1 second, not to mention that learning to use it costs a lot. Magic without enchantment is obviously an advantage, but it is not unique to him and it is something that almost anyone can learn as a child, the problem is that magic is not taught as a child and very few know how to use it. And finally his offensive magic is strong thanks to the fact that he turns it into that by adding more mana, it is not an exclusive unique ability and it is something that he learned practicing as a child, mainly thanks to the creation of clay figures.
PD: Sorry my bad english
To be fair though Demon eyes are not limited to him, plenty in that world have one like Ghlislane for example(though the way Rudeus got it was typical MC kind of thing), he also taught Slyphy incantionless magic but she can also do it for healing as well unlike Rudy. Rudeus big limitations though are he can't use Touki if he could he could use much stronger magic beyond his current bodys limit, it's also a big reason why he hasn't got much swordsmanship potential as even his father and Eris can use Touki, even Slyphy can and she has the Laplace factor like Rudeus(which technically means she had higher birth potential then him).

rudeus marries slyphie and roxy and paul dies true
Great video! This is my favorite isekai
one of the things i loved about the series is that the mc isn't completely op. what he uses to become strong is partially winning the genetic lottery yes, but can be taught to others because its largely technique and knowledge. rudeus is no where near weak but as he progresses in power he learns from/teams up with someone who is at the next stage. The entire time he thinks hes weak because hes a B-tier fighter surrounded by the top 1% A and S tiers.
and the only time you truly get see what a monster he is, is when the story would switch to side/supporting characters perspectives there are quite a few pov switches in the novel). which might get cut out of the anime
It also helps that his OP'ness doesn't make him invincible. Someone with magic power just enough to be begginer could still win against him with a good strategy. Same with swordsmen.
Rudeus is so cute. He's like a smol slightly chubby version of his mother.

*spoiler alert*
I'm going to talk about things further in the story to add to the explanation of rudeus' power from what I can remember for those who care. These are things from the light/web novel. One of the best things about moshuko tensei is almost everything is explained throughout the story including why he's there.
Rudeus is the most powerful human mage in the world. There are multiple reasons for that however he isnt the most skilled I would argue that cliff falls into that mold(the guy who fell for eris in the ova episode)
Rudeus figured out young that he could increase his mana pool as well as cast wordlessly that was a trait of learning magic before 10 later they figure out that wordless casting is a result of learning young yet rudeus never figures out how to do it with healing. Sylphy can do all wordlessly rudeus uses something like a magical muscle memory to cast and it just never clicks with healing magic he explains it as healing magic just doesn't make sense to him meaning how it works.
Maximum mana is determined in a sense at birth but reaching it is something the spellcast has to work towards so spellcasters in that world tend to assume their starting mana is their max as a result most mages are beyond weak in the world. Mages like Roxy are an exception although compared to Rudi Roxy is weak too.
Rudeus' mana maximum is significantly higher then others because his body was meant as a possible vessel for Laplaces reincarnation. Laplace had cast a reincarnation spell before death and as a result until he is born again multiple vessels are still born throughout the world that carry his traits. (This is also the reason for sylphies green hair) when rudi met the dragon god and announced his parents to him he said that they should only have two daughters that's because when rudi died his sould was brought iver and attached itself to Laplace vessel. Basically rudi shouldn't exist.
This story is pretty great honestly I do recommend reading it if you love the anime I was very disappointed with some aspects of it but I would still highly recommend it.
In volume 9 of the light novel, we get to see just how powerful the stone-cannon can become.
In volume 6 as well although Rudeus won't realize it at that point
@@lucasvanwijngaarden670 Yes but that was a reactionary attack. In volume 9 he actually puts as much power as possible.
Is that about when he duel against that humongous dude and Eris rival shit herself or far after that? *try to not spoiled other people
@@chimergo6501 Yup that's the moment
@@chimergo6501 yeah
11:55 ghislaine herself said if she and rudeus fight each other with the starting distance more than 100m, she would likely to lose. So, rudeus is not "have good combat instinct for his age"
at that time rudeus is still amateur at fighting although he can 1 shot everything bcuz he possesses tremendous amount of mana greater than laplace bcuz he's afraid to kill a person or other living things even the red cobra hahahaha
Looking forward to the next video in this series!
