WTH he was touching the panties this whole time???
What are you on about, do you mean Eris' hair ?
EDIT: wait, is the white thing panties ? I though it was a rag in which he kept her hair.
I regret to inform you that your edit is correct. Rudeus has been huffing Hanes
Ok now that I udnerstand that it recontextualizes everything. He was actually clutching underwear in his pouch to stave off his panic attack... damn I agree with OP now: wtf
The author seemed intent on making it hard to recommend this show -_-
Rudeus is a really, really flawed character, and it definitely means that the anime and LN won't be for everyone, but if you can accept it, there's a lot there to enjoy. I agree that it makes it difficult to recommend to people.
I've read up through volume 19 of the LN, and though I love the series, I'd absolutely prefer if Rudy's libido were slightly less of a focal point.
The flaws in Rudeus's character are not something that viewers just have to tolerate, they are a very crucial part of the plot. Highlighting the contrast between the characteristics of his current and past self are pretty much the main point of the show.
