Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation (2021– ) User Reviews

Isekai was meant to be beautiful

[Greyrat2 · 9/10 · 4 September 2021]

Season 1:

Mushoku Tensei is shaping up to be one of the best fantasy anime. Even though the plot is same as every other isekai (it got a late adaptation, this series popularized all the tropes in the first place), what sets it apart are the characters and the worldbuilding. Rudeus is a great protagonist that doesn't just become another Isekai harem God just cause he got hit by a truck, he is a flawed human who gets a second chance at life and tries to better himself like every other character in the show. I'd go as far as to say that Mushoku Tensei is the most logical of all isekai. Aside from all of that this show also excelles in animation, even the opening theme is a banger. All of this makes it a beautiful experience everyone who loves Fantasy should give a try. (If you can stomach some fanservice her and there)

better than this genre usually offers

[andrepico · 8/10 · 11 April 2021]

First of all, is it pervy? Off course it is, it's an anime, and it's 40 year old guy in a boys body, everything he does will be questionable, but compared to basically 80% of other animes it isn't even that bad. If you can get over that, than its an anime that actually has some depth that this genre never has, it doesn't rush the plot, the mc doesn't always make the right choice and is far from perfect but doesn't annoy you because you understand his thought process.

So if you're sensitive don't watch it, if you're used to most animes I would highly recommend it.

Really promising series so far!

[icata-62775 · 9/10 · 28 January 2021]

Remember when the isekai genre was not dragged in the mud like a 5$ hooker? Pepperidge farm remembers! Jokes aside the anime adaptation so far follows the source material quite nicely from the 3 episode sample i've seen, animation quality compared to everything i've seen this past year is top notch, so far i'm really impressed by the work Kabushiki studio had done with the series, and if the pacing, and quality keeps up with the other episodes this could easly be the best anime series in this season.

A True Isekai experience

[jamesorobber · 10/10 · 8 November 2021]

This Isekai anime is one of my all time favourites the plot and characters are all interesting although the premise is not original it is executed very well considering all the garbage Isekai has to offer these days this one truly feels like you are immersed in the world with the main protagonist witnessing his growth with him and can I just say the animation and art style is just gorgeous very high tier I recommend this to anyone that enjoys a good story and visuals.

Truck-kun strikes back!!!

[Subjectsof_ymir · 10/10 · 14 January 2021]

Truck-kun is back at his job of isekaing people to magic/adventure worlds after the failed attempt of isekaing Nasa last year. Honestly thought the first episode looks great, even though it has a very basic and overused plot it's still entertaining as though not unique, it just does things right and is a great show if your a fan of the isekai genre. Animation is great and the characters and looking good unlike most isekai where all the girls around the mc are annoying as hell. Hope it continues being great.

Amazing anime

[parsaebrahimi-57567 · 10/10 · 6 March 2021]

This anime is incredible. I love the comedy of it. The characters are amazing there are so funny. The story of this anime is wonderful. I love and enjoy every minute of it. Just watch it

Wasn't expecting this

[amonghonor · 10/10 · 2 March 2021]

The animation was the first thing that shocked me but the pacing, voice acting, soundtrack, and world building really are top notch. Looking forward to the second part of season 1. Second best anime of the year behind jujutsu kaisen

This will be one of the greats!

[jonathanlindblom · 9/10 · 6 March 2021]

This anime is a gem. The story is interesting, the animation is perfect, and the level of detail and thought is on the same level as Attack on Titan.

If you like the adventure genre then I would highly recommend it. The magic scenes are spectacular, the fighting scenes are immersive and the world feels very real excluding the magic.

100/10

[kjigpbu · 10/10 · 7 March 2021]

I strongly advise you to watch this anime, The drawing is great and the story is amazing. I just hope the anime has a long number of episodes🤧💔.

Show literally tries to make pedophila, and sexaul assault lighthearted.

[mrrickynelsonjr · 6/10 · 16 September 2021]

It really sickens me to see how many people gave this a good review despite the fact you have an adult protagonist loser 😒in a child's body. Where I drew the line was where his father is said to have basically raped his current servant (who he later impregnated by the way)while they were in sword school. Lastly the protagonist sexaul assault of a twelve year old little girl was far too much for me.

Surprisingly great anime..... Its combines mature themes, venture, pupilage, with strong focus on backgrounds and culture.

[kennyT-19987 · 10/10 · 22 December 2021]

This series is not a fast paced as I thought initially, its a slow pace and character evolving anime. I liked the fact the backgrounds and landscapes where epic, battle scenes where quite good too.

If you expects a fast pace, boss, battle and conquer type anime then this is not the one.

Its rather a unique story telling from other anime's out there.

It could easily have 4 or 5 seasons in the future as each arc takes depth in story.

My favorite character from the entire series is Aria's body guard.

Warning: be prepared to watch the first few episodes with an open mind.

Amazing Story

[simonmooreut · 7/10 · 6 January 2023]

It's great to see the writers try to show Rudeus redeem himself from a perverted shut-in to a sort of hero. Although, I wished that they would have put more effort into his character as it still sounds like he is not making strides to become a better man. However, I am sure that he will eventually redeem himself completely, and I can't wait to see if he can improve in season 2.

Now onto my main complaint, the oversexualization of women in this is outrageous and astounding. I don't know if this is going to be part of some bigger picture that when Rudeus grows up he'll find out that women aren't just voluptuous and overly sexy and his perspective will change completely, but at the moment it seems like it's supposed to be this way.

Other than that I can't wait to see what happens in season 2!

I question the people that rate this so highly

[Taylibra · 2/10 · 23 August 2023]

Okay, so this show started off really promising, I enjoy fantasy anime alot. I liked the concept, the world they are in and the idea of him leveling up in magic and swordsmanship. I was looking forward to see where this would go but then it just got really inappropriate. How can you ignore the fact he is a grown 35 year old man in a kids body wanting to bed and kiss kids at 10....it's sooo creepy. It makes sense him lusting over grown women because technically his still an adult. He constantly mentions his age so he shouldn't in anyway feel comfortable trying to sleep and kiss girls at 10! It's just too twisted and I couldn't finish watching it. I feel like this anime was written for people who shouldn't be around children..

Must watch

[paschy-12874 · 10/10 · 13 February 2021]

5 episodes in and I am hooked. First episode is awesome to watch. This has huge potential, I hope It lives up to it.

Awesome Show !!!

[anshranjan-28348 · 10/10 · 5 March 2021]

Im hooked from the first episode of the show and my favourite scene is when the protagonist takes off his shirt. I just burst in laughter whenever I see that scene I just love the way this show is executed and hope it will live up to the expectations in the near future too. "I highly recommend it for any anime lover.."

Masterpiece

[ishakcaliskan · 10/10 · 23 February 2021]

I don't really know what to say, I started the Anime when the first episode dropped because I heard it was really good and entertaining and really got hooked into it. I even read the whole Manga in a day because I couldn't wait for the new episode. Honestly I was really bored of the most Isekai Anime for the reason they were all the same. For me this is a masterpiece and has the potential to become one of the best (Isekai)Anime out there.

BEST ISEKAI EVER!

[rotavinsky · 10/10 · 14 March 2021]

Best isekai ever. No matter what critics say about this animation, it is really good.

This would have been great but

[extraplay-61838 · 8/10 · 3 June 2022]

In terms of the storyline and visuals, it was excellent it followers through the concept from beginning to end, and the emotional arc was great, so why did I give it such a low score: 1. There is no need for such a well told concept to consist of a perverted male character, the whole idea is that he is reborn and can start over again.

2. Children having sex - really - this is sickening.

3. Almost naked women - outrageous this is the 21st century why have we not moved past this.

4. The sexual exploitation of the children by older predatory men is beyond the pale.

Higly recommend the Light novel!

[rohanraket-23893 · 8/10 · 24 February 2021]

If u r enjoying the anime even one bit. Then the light novel will blow ur mind. If the genre is fine with u, then the light novel is a must read. It's truly a master piece. Not perfect, but nothing is perfect. :P . Just didn't want u to miss on it! In my opinion, u should read it as the main & watch anime or manga as the reference.

As great as the first season was, the second season was awful

[irib-87686 · 7/10 · 17 September 2023]

Unfortunately, this anime became very popular in the first season and rightly so.

Why is it unfortunate?

Because this anime is the same anime that was ruined when it became popular, so that the seasons became longer and the quality of the story decreased.

The first season had a great story and great subjects

As great as the first season was, the second season was awful It is better for the makers of this anime to think and reconsider the story process The second season had very poor story writing and was boring and was just a waste of time and had no special subjects The second season was not in the storyline of the first season I give a rate of ten to season one and a score of four to season two.

Best isekai anime out there

[shiroukamui · 10/10 · 14 February 2021]

Read the manga read the novel the story is really good...i read the novel...and its only series that i can read till finish the character development is really goog...im really glad the anime quality is great

Enjoyable anime that's hard to recommend

[tkeanemember · 6/10 · 14 January 2024]

There is some really cool stuff here and even some of the problematic character interactions are interesting and funny in their own way, like how everyone just eventually accepts Paul is a himbo. But there are some really, really bad anime tropes in this series that make it hard to recommend to anyone I know. The show tackles the obvious issue with a grown man in a child's body and makes you watch at excruciating length sometimes. Definitely could have been done in a way that didn't make my skin crawl. This anime is 90% incredible and 10% horrifying to watch as an emotionally developed person in their 30s.

This is Not Ok

[dmbarnhamart · 2/10 · 28 July 2023]

I'm just going to come out and say it.

The main character is a GD podophile.

I couldn't keep watching it and a quick look on comments shows it's divided between the "it's about character development and you have to keep watching" and the other people expressing their concerns and being abused by fan boys.

Anime already has a sexualisation of women (especially young women) problem - now I don't mind the occasional female character who is promiscuous or the object of another character's attention. That's just normal. But its unbalanced in anime. The level that so often is encapsulated is not ok, even if they write decent characters too, more often then not it's mere fan service.

And this is before we add children to the mix!

Does it really have to be said?

Some things shouldn't be defended and I agree you can take on controversial topics if you're careful ... very very careful ... but this clearly isn't one of them. It's an excuse. Plan and simple. And it doesn't matter if the rest of the show is good. One thing can (and has) ruined it.

I can't comprehend why this has such praise. It makes me question the people supporting it. Do they not see? Or is there something sinister at play here. Just because it's animated doesn't make it ok.

Great anime

[levonathomas · 9/10 · 27 October 2021]

One of the best anime ive watched lately, really amazing and entertaining, i would recommend more people to watch this because its filled with adventure and excitement.

Yes yes yeah!

[H0kv5 · 9/10 · 12 June 2021]

Worth every bit of my time.
