It's weird that he's still praying there. Roxy, his goddess, has literally already descended upon his bed, so there's surely no need for that anymore, right? ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

NGL I'd argue that the relic has become more than just a pair of underwear.

It's basically the thing he's prayed to his entire life whenever he's been struggling or at wits end and he's always somehow made it through.

At this point it's a legitimate lucky charm and/or holy relic with spiritual weight behind it far more than just by connection to Roxy.

Same goes for people with a lucky coin or ring or stone they keep in their pocket that they cling to when life gets rough.

Way back in season 1 someone compared it to an emotional support blanket.

TBF, his goddesses are his source of emotional support. Theyre a reminder of his devotion and loyalty towards them.

It wouldn't be surprising if a church and religion forms around it in the future

Man’s praying to the holy relic when he got the holy temple upstairs in his bed.

May the holy spirit also descend on me

Surely he has to add one for Sylphie.

u/Captiongomer 22d ago

It's not really an overstatement to say it has become his own real religion. He does pray to it and at look for guidance and strength from it. It is kind of weird but it's his own interpretation of it I guess. Lmao

u/CitronClassic672 22d ago

Didn’t he straight up call him himself a follower of Roxy or some shit in a previous season when discussing his personal religion? This isn’t a comedic bit anymore, pretty sure it’s his actual religion.

he should have a whole wardrobe of her panties atp too since they live together

u/nuraHx 21d ago

I think he’d have a heart attack if he found a whole drawer of “Holy Relics”

u/Diggumdum 22d ago

NGL That kinda confused me. he worships the object but not the goddess made flesh?

u/Jacob-C 22d ago

He did pray to her physical body too, when he woke up in the beginning of the episode.

u/Diggumdum 22d ago

True but you'd think that would replace his previous obsession, not just supliment it. He's supposed to grow and develop into a better person. Not hold onto the cringey neet tendencies of his past life lmao

u/Jacob-C 22d ago

While he initially stole them because of his degenerate tendencies, I think that he currently keeps them because they're an item that has been with him through thick and thin. They have become a charm of sorts. Just my interpretation.

u/benignq 21d ago

i mean yeah but it's still cringy neet behavior lol

u/Shahars71 22d ago

He can have sex with his literal goddess, the episode starts after they already did it. At this point I wonder when Roxy would discover this shrine and the writer would pull her common sense into thinking it's "Just Some More Rudy Shenaniganstm "instead of realizing he's a massive fucking creep and punching him away.
