First thoughts after watching Jobless Reincarnation Season 3 Episode 5

This note includes a spoiler.

I watched Jobless Reincarnation season 3 episode 5 twice. 8/10. It seemed like this episode was meant to wrap up what happened after Rudeus came back to his mansion from the labyrinth.

Elinalise settled down with Cliff, instead of staying an adventurer. Cliff is a member of the Milis Church, but I don't think she is. I forgot about it, but she has a curse. How can she deal with it?

Also, the episode explained that there was no wedding of Rudeus and Roxy because the Migurd don't have that custom. So, this was the first episode that Roxy dressed up in something special at the wedding of Cliff and Elinalise, and it was so cute. She looked like a very cute kid.

Then what Rudy didn't do was throw Norn and Aisha their birthday celebrations. And he had a good memory and remembered the promise he had made with Paul about throwing a big party. And now he was responsible as the head of the Greyrats, so he planned and prepared it. When he was fishing with Norn, Aisha, and Roxy, he couldn't catch any fish, just a boot, so he cast a spell to catch fish. Even Roxy was a little disgusted with him. So, he had grown up a lot as the head of the Greyrats, but he still showed his childish side.

Roxy, on the other hand, still had a couple of challenges. Well, she was more like an introvert. Norn had a problem with her being Rudy's second wife, so Roxy wanted to get along with her, and fishing was her chance. I think she liked helping others, so it worked well and she taught Norn a few techniques. Also, she couldn't buy a hat when she found a good one. It was because the hat was too expensive. And Rudy and Sylphie bought and gave it to her as a wedding gift. That conversation between Sylphie and Roxy was, well, the polygamy point of view, so it was still kinda off to a monogamous person. But Sylphie really loved Rudy, and she was thankful to Roxy too. Roxy may still have felt awkward around her as the second wife, so I guess that was another thing she solved in the scene. Roxy's animation when she got the new hat from Sylphie was very detailed and well framed, so some of the animators must have liked this scene.

Zenith's behavior also improved a little, and she patted Norn's head and held Lilia's hand. Though, I don't know whether she'll ever fully recover, or when. Was her condition caused by magic, or by some other power? No idea how she'll turn out later.

I don't know what'll happen in the next episode. Apparently, Sara will show up again, so Rudy will probably get a job, maybe taking one from a guild. More than that, no idea. And I also have no idea when Rudy'll meet Eris next.
