Rudeus is FAR more POWERFUL than you think | Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation season 2

If we think about it, Rudeus, the protagonist of Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation season 2 is far more powerful than you think. Strength isn't the only measure of power, and Rudeus probably have more of it than he can handle for now.

Let's just put into perspective rudeus's mana capacity alone. In vol 15 he makes a Gatlingun for his stone cannons which according to badigadi has enough power to compare to a king or emperor tier spell. Since same tier spells can cost upto 20 times in the basic tier, it's not unreasonable. Rudeus claims he can fire thousands of them a day. Roxy has slightly less mana than sylphy and her aptitude for water makes her barely able to cast 1 king tier spell a day. So rudeus has thousands of times more mana than basically all the strongest mages in the world expect beings like orsted and perugius. And even compared to them it's at least a few dozen to hundreds of times more mana. If his mana capacity was inherited by one of sylphy or Roxy's child then they might have surpassed even laplace which rudy couldn't because of human output limitations

[@meatykyun5981]

for novel readers: man has like 5 kids all hero class and one of them is the destined one, not really an over exaggeration dude is the goat

[@christianhernandez3723]

No, i think rudy have more mana than orsted. In anime, manga and novel Orsted said that Rudy's mana is equal or surpassed Laplace in mana capacity. And Laplace(Technique God) have more mana that Orsted(he was still a child that time). I think at the current time Rudy is the third or second person who have large mana pool in between Hitogami and Laplace

[@christianhernandez3723]

Rudy is weaker than orsted because rudy cannot perform touki..... that is why his swordmanship is only at intermediate or advance because he cannot use touki like other swordman. And when against magic orsted can use god class while rudy only in emperor class.... though his nuclear explosion magic, orsted states that it can be considered as god class magic.

[@user-dm9fx9qn8c]

​@@christianhernandez3723Rudeus can use the magic of a god, there will be enough mana, Rudeus just doesn’t need it because of the scale of the magic that can hurt him, it’s more profitable for him to collect all the mana into one bullet, making it powerful and accurate. What about the atomic explosion, Orsted called it the magic of God, because of its destructiveness, but except for him, no one saw or classified this magic; Rudeus himself invented this spell.

[@user-dm9fx9qn8c]

​@@meatykyun5981Sieg is VERY inferior in mana to Rudeus, but it is thanks to this that he can use Touki, he is the emperor of the north (according to the author, the peak of his power) and the God of Death. Due to the large amount of mana, Laplace also could not use Touki like Rudius

[@SeijoVangelta]

For Zanoba, he is a prince from a small nation compared to Asura. The influence Zanoba have is little but his power as a Miko/Blessed Child is a desired asset. Rinia and Pursena are indeed Beastkin Princesses which serves as helping hands in the future Cliff is the grandson of the Millis Pope. He is also gets an important position in the future Elinalise is an S-Rank Adventurer. Nuff said Nanahoshi has ties to Orsted and Perugius. One of which is too important in the Asuran legends.

@@dentangaji6161 General rule of thumb for any series, S Ranked individuals such as adventurers usually have the kind of political weight for a situation as a nuclear weapon would in our world, from reputation of their skill/power alone. It doesn't matter if they have strong connections to the nobility/royalty of a particular nation as they are to some degree deified by the general public and without some damning evidence against them could insight revolutions very easily.

Elinalise has absolutly no reason to fight for Ariel, what cud she even offer to someone like Elinalise? Lynia nad Pursena are steat toughs so they onlly respect strength and Ariel started with the wrong foot with them. Nanahoshy wants nothing to do with this world so she rejected every single one of Ariel's aproaches. Ariel was to scared to even talk to Badigadi, if he suddenly became hostile she woud be powerless to stop him. She cud onlly tremble in fear in the face of his power. Beside support from a demon king may not grant her popularity in Asura. And the Scariest studant of them all Rudeus Grayrat himself. He avoided her for a year and onlly deals with her when necesary so its obvius he has no interest in Asuran politics. He has deep pockets so its hard to brive him. Her stronguest fighter is in love with him so if presured to choose a side she likely will choose Rudy. Rudeus has stronger allies to and his magic alone cud whipe anything magic academy Ariel cud muster. He is to strong, she can't control him that makes him dangerous in her eyes. Granted, now that he married Sylphy and offer her his support he is unlikely to fight Ariel but he is not true beliver, when it comes to actual fighting she has no confidence he will ansure her call. Beside she dosn't want him to. She wants Sylphie to be happy and dying with her in a battle for the throne is not what she wants for Sylphie, she knows her chances of wining are slim its practicly a suicide.

If he could use touki and actually trained in the sword he would literally be an actual monster.

[@kaiserc2471]

Spoiler: Arms Mcgee is a disciple of the ManDingo, therefore, him and his magical golden fart collector can get bent, since he probably only spat out lines fed to his crazy nut job braincase by the ManDingo. I got 20 bucks on Rudy against anyone if he wasn't restrained by the illustrious white poof.

Rudeus did tell us that power can also be the connections you made.

[@vincentsudario3322]

He goes World Tour trying to make alliances all over the world also establishing branches for his businesses

[@liamnehren1054]

those last two points are basically in his obituary, it's a bit depressing at the end of the series when he is remember as an oddity and hanger on of multiple famous people with his ideas, advice and support making each of those people great being mostly overlooked. His own power is also extremely undervalued... I think it was in part because, while he is on the ranking stone it's as a name that is connected to his greatest invention which is what elevates him to the level of the strongest individuals.

[@garytaylor8193]

On the otherhand while history might see him that way the people that actually knew him wouldn't think that way and honestly that's probably how he wanted it

[@unspokentruths6416]

I'm scared of the direction the show is going, I hate that they wrote Rudeus to go help the party to save his mother. Frankly I think because of it Sylphie is either going to die in childbirth while he's gone, the school will be attacked and everyone (or at the very least Sylphie, his child and his sisters) will die. I wanted nothing more than for them to have a happy life, I know a show needs drama to he interesting but I think they could accomplish it without killing off or abandoning sylphie and the baby.

There's a very strong reason Rudeus openly stated he has zero interest in political schemes; he knows that with his family name and prowess as a mage and fame as an adventurer that his words and action could carry genuine weight. This is why Ariel was trying really hard to think of a way to get him on her side after first seeing his name come up on the potential candidates for special class students, and one of the few reasons she tried to get Sylphiette to be with him. Of course, she also wanted Sylphie to be happy as she considers her a true friend who has saved her life more than once, but she knew an opportunity when she saw one, which is why the moment Rudeus approached them with a favor owed for aiding in curing his ED, she asked to be able to use his influence for her benefit, which he readily agreed because his policies would be different with Ariel's ties to Sylphie, his soon bride-to-be at the time.

[@bellcrosswolfstein1942]

She also had to beg rudeus to let her join Orsted’s Company 😂

[@kos2919]

Her fear is understandable tho. Here's a noble man who claim he doesn't want to be in power and yet his friends are all very powerful people, literal world shakers too. He even married Sylphy, a commoner and never want to take a wife from noble line. It's like he can just take over power in one single move. I bet she's still sweating even when she's already a queen.

[@victorsardaneta8727]

If only Rudeus could use Touki he would be a monster. The fact that he can't reinforce his body is a huge nerf, considering that he has so much mana, Laplace got around it by being born an already physically strong race and some dangerous tricks (but he's immortal so it didnt matter).

Don't forget Rudeus EASILY beat her best bodyguard without a sweat. Now, that is what it is. He is incredibly powerful in magic, and is literally the worst thing a mage can come up against since he can even stop their magic. But he also proceeded to curb stomp her knight in a freaking swordfight where he didn't even use any magic at all...And he isn't even especially good at sword fighting...

[@Asghaad]

@@TexasKing100 yes, yes he is ... what people dont get is that Intermediate isnt "noob" thats decent swordfighter ... "advanced" would be like "MASTER" for us, Saint means superhuman capabilities and basically limit of general population, King level is ABSURDLY powerful ( literally capable of performing a LIGHTSPEED cut ? do you even realize how ABSURD that feat is ?) Emperors are the stuff of legends and "god" isnt an overstatement on the abilities of sayd individual in the least bit ... "advanced" means well trained knight, Luke wasnt eaxactly great swordsman but he was good enough to act as the royalty bodyguard. problem is that most of you compare poor Luke to a swordfighting PRODIGY like Paul - who is "only" saint class in several styles or ridiculous monsters like Eris or Ghislayne or city buster level battlemage like Sylphy

[@TexasKing100]

@@Asghaad Paul never got Saint class in anything. And comparing a world of magic and superhumans, using IRL comparisons in a joke. Even using that, the princesses body guard being below the average human of real life, not even that world, is an absolute joke. Rudy was barely intermediate and 1 shot Luke, which means hes only beginner level sword fighter lmao

[@tekdaystar345]

except Rudy at where the anime is at least would lose to any strong melee fighter since he can't use Battle Aura. later on, not necessarily the case, but as a novel reader, I know exactly how strong he is. and his connections, yes you are right about those but the people who only watch the anime don't know that he's not as invincible as we're shown.
