Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation (2021) s01e03 Episode Script

A Friend

1
She really gave me precious gifts.
I can go outside now.
I freed myself from being a shut-in.
This is the start line of my life.
I finally managed to get started.
Alright!
Hey! Jeez!
Dad, Mum.
Can I go outside and play?
Outside? W-Well, of course.
Darling! Rudy says he wants to go outside!
I was worried if he was weak or something,
but time does fly.
You're right.
That's what you were thinking?
Because you've never cried at all.
I see. I'm your strong and adorable son, see?
The fact that you don't act
like a kid actually worries me.
Your son is behaving well.
Why are you unsatisfied?
Nah, I'm not unsatisfied with anything
You can actually say something like:
you should work harder to become a proper
successor of the Greyrat Family, you know?
Then, bring home a girlfriend.
I got it.
In that case, I'll go find a girl
who's as good as Mum.
Well!
Oh, be nice to people.
A man's strength is not for showing off.
I understand, Dad.
A man's strength is for making one
look cool in front of girls, right?
Yeah. Wait, no! That's not it.
I'm just kidding.
It's for protecting the weak ones, right?
Yeah, exactly.
Well then, off I go.
Take care!
He sure has grown up to be a good boy.
I want to act as the Dad sometimes
Good afternoon!
Good afternoon!
If you're afraid, cross the mountain and go
The overflowing water
will heal your unsatisfied heart
Beyond imagination
A place where nobody can stand
As long as you have compassion and affection
You will get love
(Mushoku Tensei
Jobless Reincarnation)
It's okay now. It's not scary outside.
This is thanks to Roxy too.
Let's cherish the "deity".
Get out of the village, you demon!
Go back to the Demon Continent!
Get lost!
Get lost, you demon!
Get lost!
I hate this. It's bullying.
Stop it!
What?!
Three people gathering together
to bully one? You're the worst!
Where are you looking at?
So you're the kid of that knight!
Don't get in our way!
This is all useless if they can't hit me!
Where did he get that water?!
So boring.
Let's go home.
Are you okay?
Well, what a surprise.
A surprisingly pretty boy.
I guess if a Shouta-con Big Sister sees him,
she'd immediately get excited.
Y-Yes, I'm okay
Bend over for a bit.
Eh Eh?
Looks like he's the kind of boy
that doesn't go against others.
I guess if a Shouta-con Big Brother sees him,
he'd immediately get aroused.
Close your eyes.
Wash your clothes at home, okay?
Now, OK.
T-Thank you
Never get close to the race
with emerald green hair
and a red gemstone on their forehead!
His forehead
A clear forehead.
Okay, safe.
This boy is not of that dangerous Superd race.
Wait, these eyes
You know, if you don't fight back,
they'll bully you more.
Y-You're not afraid of me?
Because my master was a demon too.
Are you a demon too?
I don't know
Dad says I'm not
Don't know, huh
He's still young,
so I guess it can't be helped.
Dad is half elf.
Oh! Just as I thought!
So there're elves in this world too.
But my hair colour is not the same
as my Dad or Mum
Eh? H-Huh?
There, there.
Looks like his family background
is a bit complicated.
Although, people would throw mud at you
just because of hair colour
I feel like wetting myself
just by thinking of it.
Um why did you save me?
Dad has told me to take
the side of the weak ones.
But, you might be left out from the others
When that happens,
come and play with me.
Eh?
We're friends starting from today.
Oh, are you busy helping with housework?
N-No!
That's nice.
With that face, he'll probably
be popular with girls when he grows up.
If I follow him, I might
be able to get his leftovers.
Speaking of which,
I haven't asked your name yet.
I'm Rudeus. What about you?
Syl
Sylph What a good name.
It's almost like the spirit of wind.
Yes
Hey!!
Shall we play something?
I don't know
I've never played with a friend before
I'm sure he didn't have
any friends all this time.
I feel bad for him
Well, I didn't have any either.
Teach me that thing you did just now.
That thing?
The one that makes warm water
come out of your hand,
and the one that blows warm wind
Oh you mean that
Can I do it too?
If you memorize the chant,
you'll be able to do that. Probably.
Chant?
Are you interested?
Yes.
Okay! We've got nothing to do anyway.
Let's try some training!
I'm home.
Dad?
You understand why I'm mad?
What might it be?
Roxy's underwear
I mean, is it about the "deity"?
I-I don't.
I heard that
You punched Somar.
In any case, looks like it's not about that.
Wait, what's he talking about?
Is it about today?
Yes.
I see. That brat who bullied Sylph, huh.
Dad, I don't know what you've hear
No! When you did something wrong,
you should first say "I'm sorry"!
Actually, I was walking and I heard
Don't make excuses!
No matter I lie or not,
it looks like he won't even hear me out.
What do you mean by that look?
I guess I could apologize,
but I feel like it's not a good thing
for Paul if I do so.
What's wrong?
Why aren't you saying anything?
Because if I say something, you'd
yell at me and say "Don't make excuses".
What?
Yell at the kid and make him apologize
even before he says anything.
It's so easy to be the adult.
How I envy you.
Rudy!!
Dad.
I've worked as hard as I could
to be a good boy all this time.
That has nothing to do with this.
No, it has.
I've tried my best to gain your trust, Dad.
But Dad, you didn't want to
hear me out at all.
You yelled at me, and hit me.
But! It's true that Somar is injured
Even if it's my fault that he's injured,
there's nothing I should apologize for.
Wait a minute, what really happened?
I thought you don't want to hear any accuses?
Don't worry, Dad.
The next time I see three people
bulling one who's not resisting,
I'll ignore it.
What's more, I'd actively join
those three in bullying.
And let's tell people that this is
the motto of the Greyrat Family.
And when I grow up, I'll leave home
and never use the name of Greyrat again.
Because I'll be ashamed to tell people
that I came from such a family.
You'd better give up, Paul.
For 20 years, I had continuously talked my way
out of such debates which could never lose.
Not to mention that I'm absolutely
on the side of justice this time.
You have no chance of winning in this.
I'm sorry, it's my fault.
Please tell me about it.
I'm home.
Welcome home. Rudy.
Did you have fun today?
-I made a friend today.
-Oh, that's glad to hear.
-Can I take him home next time?
-Why did it become like this
It's true that there was a mark
of being punched on Somar's face.
I was almost relieved that
although Rudeus acts like an adult all the time,
sometimes he does act like a kid.
But Rudeus became a Water-Saint
ranked magician at such a young age.
I have to scold him a bit harshly.
Or so I thought
Why did it become like this
And I was the one who told him
"A man's strength is for
protecting the weak ones."
What's wrong? Why the long face?
I had a bit of a fight with Rudy.
That's rare.
I guess if I tell him to get out,
he'd probably leave this home at once.
Without even thinking.
Just like what you did?
I didn't get to apologize eventually,
but I wonder if my father
felt the same way back then
It's summer again.
Since then, those brats came after
Sylph for a few more times,
but I repelled them every time.
And every time, that brat's mum came to
our house and yelled at us.
It seems that rather than her kid,
she is in love with Paul.
She basically used her child
as an excuse to come and meet Paul.
How ridiculous.
Although, it's hot! Too hot!
I'm sorry. Did I keep you wait?
No! I just came.
Just kidding.
I did it!
In about half a year,
Sylph's magic capacity increased a lot too.
It seems that my theory was correct.
"There's a limit to one's
total magic capacity."
That book is really not trustworthy.
I want to learn that thing
which makes warm water come out.
Oh, that. Like this
Use fire and water.
Why aren't you saying it, Rudy?
Hm? You mean without chanting?
I think it's difficult for you though.
Teach me that!
Well
Alright. Now, do you know the feeling of
magic power gathering to the tip of
your finger when you're chanting?
Yes.
You recall the magic, and squeeze it
out of your hands, without chanting.
Have a try like that.
Try easy magic first.
Okay!
It's difficult to teach something
that you do with your senses.
Roxy couldn't do it either.
I guess not having to chant
is a special thing after all.
Or rather, please be
I did get reincarnated in isekai.
I'd like to get one or two skills
as my own advantage
I did it! I did it! Rudy!
-I did it! I did it!
-Sylph!
I did it! I did it!
Sylph! Wait!
Sylph!
So pretty.
Even as a man, I honestly think so.
Dammit, how I envy him
Now that I think of it, in my beforelife,
there was a girl who's my childhood friend.
She got married a long time ago though.
How I regret it.
Right now, the word "childhood friend" alone
can make me come three times.
Sylph, hurry!
I'm home.
Welcome home, young master.
And welcome to your friend.
Good afternoon
The bath is ready.
Thank you.
Sylph, come here.
Okay
Alright.
What's wrong?
If you don't hurry, you might
get cold, you know?
O-Okay
Now, raise your hands.
Eh Okay
There's no helping it.
You're old enough to do it yourself, you know?
What are you embarrassed about?
I'm taking off your pants too.
N-No
Take it off already. You'll catch a cold.
Stop it
Sylph, I understand how you feel.
In my beforelife, people
made fun of my penis too.
I won't laugh at it.
It's not No!
D-Does it look that weird?
What the heck It's not fair that
I'm the only one naked here.
I got it.
But change it later, okay?
Okay.
which is just a bluff.
Got you!
That moment, what I saw
wasn't a pure short sword that
I just become familiar with recently.
Of course, it wasn't a floating dark blade
with ominous patterns either.
As for what it was
Nah, it wasn't there.
-What's wrong?!-Something that shouldn't be there, is there.
In my beforelife, I've looked at that thing
through the screen
While imagining doing all sorts of things,
I turned my black lust into whity cannon,
and turned tissues into minced meat.
That thing was there.
He, is a she.
Why did you do that?
I'm sorry.
I shouldn't scold him without hearing him out.
I won't repeat my mistake like last time.
I'm asking the reason.
She was all wet,
so I thought she'd catch a cold.
But she didn't like it, did she?
Yes I'm sorry.
Well, at your age,
you're probably interested.
But you shouldn't do it
against her will, you know?
Yes, I'm sorry. I won't do it again.
Not to me. You should
apologize to Sylphiette. Okay?
Sylphiette
I wonder if she'll forgive me.
It'll be fine.
If you apologize from the bottom
of your heart, she'll forgive you.
I also understand the frustration of
being rejected by someone I like.
Being fond of girls is within my lineage.
I guess it passed onto Rudy.
But this is my smart son we're talking about.
He can probably take advantage of
his failure this time.
You're promising, but
at the same time this is ominous.
I'm sorry, Sylphiette!
Your hair is short, so I had
always thought you were a boy!
Oh, my.
Perhaps our son is surprisingly dumb.
You're not focusing.
Could it be that you haven't
made up with Sylphiette yet?
Yes And my swordsmanship skills
is not improving either.
So I can't help but sigh.
How about some advice from Dad?
Please.
Well then, what should I do?
Shall I lick your shoes?
Hey
Listen, Rudy.
Girls love the strong parts of a man,
but they love the weak parts too.
Oh?
Just think about it.
If someone who's clearly stronger than you
shows his desires and approaches you,
how would you feel?
Scary I guess.
Right? That's why you should
show your weak parts!
I see! But how?
Reveal your worries to Sylphiette
with an outright attitude.
Say something like: You're avoiding me,
and this troubles me
And then what do you think will happen?
If it goes well, she'll approach you herself.
I-If that doesn't go well, what do I do?
When that happens, ask me again.
I'll teach you the next move.
I-I see! So there're second and third moves!
That's about it. Look!
Go!!
Rudy About what happened before
What's wrong? Rudy.
I-I haven't seen your c-cute face recently.
I-I was thinking, what a pity.
Y-You're really cute,
so wouldn't it be better
if you grow your hair more?
Eh I refuse
You're so harsh recently, Sylphy.
I'm sorry.
But I don't hate you, Rudy.
Sylphy
So, let's get along like normal.
A cute young girl in my age.
I don't know how to get along with her well.
I'm a man after all.
Looking into the future,
I want to build a good relationship with her.
Right now, she wants our relationship
to be as usual.
So, l'll interact with her like normal.
-I just have to cherish my friend
-I'm glad that you've made up.
-in this new world as much as possible.
-I'm glad that you've made up.
Although, why would I teach
those things to my little son?
(Episode 3: Friend)
Even if I learn the ABC's of love
I can't obtain it
The colony exhausted
from battles, needs you
(If you do)
There's nothing to be afraid of
(If you will)
So entrust your back to me
I want to break it, want to break it
If it's for you
Impurity or contradiction,
there's no distinction
I want to protect,
want to protect only you
Who taught me everything
