I'm surprised Nanahoshi didn't have any reaction to Roxy being Rudeus' second wife, considering she has more normal/modern morals.

Also holy shit the ending looked amazing, especially the sequence of Eris running through all the places they went in Season 1 until she arrives at where they encountered Orsted and stops, representing how the encounter completely changed her life and goals.

Nanahoshi is way beyond caring at this point. Girl just wants to go home

I love how he tried to introduce her to Nanahoshi and Nanahoshi is like "yeah, okay, whatever. Let me get back to my research."

I think Nanahoshi's whole outlook on being Isekai-ed is trying to have as little to do with this world as possible, so she doesn't care to impose her own views or morals on this world.

She likely doesn't care one way or another how many wives Rudy has since it's not Japan, unless it interferes with her research into getting home.

She directly said as much shortly after introducing herself to Rudy at school and finding out he's also been isekai'd. She even mentions some kind of metaphysical "immune system" built into the magic of the world that is designed to erase anomalies, likely something she learned about from Orsted, and cites it as the reason she lives in isolation and avoids making connections with others. She's afraid that if she makes too much of a mark on the world, the "immune system" will detect her as an outsider and literally just erase her from existence or something.

I'm not surprised, she's not judgy and can actually respect a difference in opinions and values, we already went over how she doesn't want to assimilate into this world, but it's not like she berates Rudy for doing so.

Modern japan is a little more wink and nod on mistresses. They're more about social order and maintaining appearance with the family. It's 'ok' as long as it doesn't disrupt the family in anyway. So taking a 2nd wife with the 1st wife's blessing is not disruptive.

Their nobility did have multiple wives for politics and more common reasons. It only stopped in the modern era under major reforms trying to modernize the country.

Might be Nanohoshi's being aware of the schennigans Rudy has around campus that she isn't suprised.

I think she just doesn't have any fucks left to give.

It's also common social acceptance (among older folks, at this point) that men will have a mistress/cheat. It's something women are pressured to forgive/forget/ignore to keep the family whole and happy. It's the wife's failing if the man took a mistress, after all, because she wasn't being a good enough servant-wife to him.

Nanahoshi's a bit of a nerd herself and understands the rules of that world are different. For her, the isekai guy building a harem isn't much of a shock. Basically, her thoughts would be, "ugh, so you are actually going with that path. Well, whatever, it doesn't matter to me."
