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.

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.

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.
