      Even after this exclamation, I feel the entire fight was stupid. It shouldn't have happened at all... If Luke wanted to test out his protective capabilities, he should have done it before they got together. Why help him with his man problem, which was expensive, and then question his manhood afterwards? Dumb. And what were they going to do if he couldn't protect her? Take her away like villains? Dictate who she should be with? Rudeus knew her 1st. Stopping childhood friends from being together is crazy to me...

    • @leearie6474

      Ohh, and that's another thing I realize, which makes me even angrier. If he wasn't able to handle Luke, and they ripped her away from Rudeus, they would literally destroy all the efforts they have done to help him with his manhood in the first place. Why give him expensive potions to test whether he deserved to be with her later? You should have done that before they got together. I have more reasons to believe this is a pointless fight, but that is my take.

I guess they just didn't have enough mana to nuke everything like Rudeus. Although, I would've expected more corkscrew attacks from other or smaller and sharp magic to reduce mana requirement but increase effectiveness. It's weird that mages seem so useless compared to Rudeus when fighters are stronger than him and it's not even close. Where are all the top mage opponents? I guess they'd suck without incantationless magic.

    Rudeus’ stone sword weighed way more than ordinary sword. It’s more club looking like sword. But that’s the point in his training. He using heavy sword, to achieve performance as with ordinary sword. And when he takes ordinary sword his performance jumps to another level. If he used ordinary sword, against Luke, he would end up without his hand, even without using demon eye.
    Unfortunately Rudeus didn’t meet normal teacher of swordsmanship in his early life. They were all muscle heads. Except Ruijerd, maybe, not sure.

    I felt like Rudy did at the end of that duel. I slowly realized he only seemed like a weak swordman because he trained with the best.

    • @DaReal_Magic

      I think that's what Ariel will count on. Given how strong Rudy really is if he uses his magic there won't be many people on theother side that could stop him.
      I assume that thats also why Ariel pushed Sylphie to win Rudy over. Of course she wanted to help Slyphie, because she is important for her, but i guess for Ariel it was more importan to get Rudy on her side as a really strong fighter for the upcoming succession wars.
      Maybe she hopes that she couldd win over the Thrones without fighting because Rudy is that intimidating that no one wants to fight him. Just like all the guys who wanted to marry Linia and Pursena chickened out after Rudy defeated Badigadi.

    Its always interesting to see stuff like this, because one must remember, even though from our perception, it seemed like the equivalent of a rock paper scissors match
    Each movement, every moment, was something to think about and reflect upon for rudey, time would have moved MUCH slower for him
    This wasnt just a mindless duel, rudey would have come out of this fight a MUCH stronger person, just for the fact that he now realises how strong he is in comparison to someone like luke,
    knowledge like that can go a long way, not only for skill, but for confidence in that skill, allowing him to soar to even greater heights
    e.g. hes stronger than someone like luke, who in this world is at a pretty far point, and he was fodder to me, meaning i can soar higher than i can even imagine
    A nice moment for development for both characters and story

      In the manga it is clearly shown it isn't power, but speed and technique that Rudy is a million times better at.
      He literally dodges with the least amount of movement necessary, hits his hand with a simple strike, and then easily kicks his leg to make him fall over all in the span of a second.
      Rudy isn't that much faster or stronger than Luke, but what he does have is technique literally beaten into him by some of the strongest sword fighters in the world and, even more important, he has A LOT of experience unlike most people his age.
      It isn't shown that well in the anime, but the manga does a really good job of portraying it.

      This is basically how they adapted alMushoku Fights though even in season 1, Like they never really went out to fully explain and just show you the fights and in a very quick fashion.
      That is why "battle aura" and a lot of swordfighting lore got cut in season 1.
      So what you talking about???
      Like they adapted this fight with less details getting cut and is easily more understandable even without when the monologue and contexts that got left out compare to a lot of fights in season 1.
      Also again rye Luke fight never really went down to be actually technical or strategically of Rudy's part and if you watched the video it basically explains how "easy" thus was for Rudeus that he did not really need any strategy and he basically just use a "very basic technique" so ithe figh did not even went too technical either.

    I've noticed that with a lot of "cut content" videos, the anime always has subtle hints that DO allow you to understand what was cut, even if it isn't explicitly shown, and as a viwer who likes to pay a lot of attention and carefully analyze the characters, that feels incredibly rewarding to me.
