The portion that appears in the anime in Rudeus' POV "nekomi wo osou" is the same as it appears in the WN.
That's not the phrase that I'm talking about when I say "forced", though. But I'm too lazy to look for it, it's somewhere in a posting of mine here. "Nekomi o osou" is ambiguous. "Forced" is not. And now that situation. Pls, I don't want to repeat the whole debate in this thread, let's just wait what happens :>
