To live is to suffer. To redeem is to grief.
Isekai.
You’re probably familiar with this term. The sheer number of shows that come out each year from this genre has gotten to the point that many are just sick of it and would rather skip than watch the same formulaic anime. However, not every Isekai is created equally.
There is one which has g…

The 2nd season of Mushoku Tensei (MT) was an anime that I had been excitedly anticipating since the conclusion of the first cour in late March this year. This being my joint-favourite novel series (with Zaregoto), I came in…

Creating a redemption story about a pedophile of all things is some of the worst writing I have ever seen. No matter where you go, everyone, including the big Anime YouTubers, refuse to address the elephant in the room when it comes to this series: pedophilia. In fact, many viewers embrace it. I do…

__Let's Get Something Straight__
The things that make a show great are the characters, setting, premise, and execution. Mushoku Tensei delivers on all of these and takes you on a journey of self discovery and growth in the process. Watch it.
Here's why:

__MUSHOKU TENSEI: JOBLESS REINCARNATION__
One of the most controversial yet equally amazing series to grace our screens in this year alone, this atypical narou-kei, fantasy-isekai story has a heart and uplifting narrative about the pitfalls of growing up and bettering yourself. The protagonist, a n…

Despite the existence of countless, very cliché quotes about how “it’s all about the journey, not the destination”, there is more than just a kernel of truth to that saying when it comes to storytelling. The beginning should serve as a way to hook the audience and the ending needs to tie everything…

The idea of getting a second chance by getting transported to another world and going on adventures sounds like a great idea but ends up turning into cheap wish-fulfilment power fantasies but Mushoku Tensei shows us how beautiful an isekai can be with the right execution. The first…

~~~It’s insane how much anime has come out this year in such high quality. Every season has had at least two bangers for me. Yuru Camp being a chill and fun show, Quintuplets making me more and more angry whenever Ichika did dumb **** and Miku being awesome, Odd Taxi being…

Mushoku Tensei is one of the greatest pieces of media put together in recent years. It exceeds at everything it set itself to achieve, from the characters, story, world-building, animation, etc. This world is alive, and more importantly the protagonist and you are alive.
I put emphasis in you as ali…

Read full review on AniList →A wish fulfillment and power fantasy anime that is falsely advertised as a coming-of-age redemption story
Mushoku Tensei is praised as an amazing kinda-psychological anime that is supposed to show character growth and a redemption story. Sometimes, all someone needs is a second chance at life. A blank slate to start over and improve themselves, and show others not all hope is lost. Yet we run into two b…

Alright, I wanna get right into it. Mushoku Tensei is a series known for being the grandfather of the insanely popular Isekai genre of shows, and it has a lot to its name, but these 23 episodes that they open with are not good. Straight up.
I want to give credit where it is due, though, so let me t…

Continuing immediately where the first part left off in a coastal city, Rudeus, Eris and Ruijerd are looking for a way to cross over the sea to depart away from the Demon Continent. Once they arrive at the port, the fee for both Eris and Rudeus is cheap, however for Ruijerd it is very…

I'd like to begin by saying this is only my second ever review & my thoughts are quite jumbled at the moment. I'm going to try my hardest to keep this review focused, engaging, & otherwise just a decent & fully comprehendible read. First & foremost I'd like to say Mushoku entered 2021 swinging heavy…

This is one of my favorite arcs in the story. Despite my disdain for Rudeus at the start, I began to like him in a way. His efforts to help the people around him in the best way he could, despite his obvious flaws, made me realize that he was not inherently a bad person.
It made me realize that Mus…

This season is better, which is expected after such a misstep that was part 1 for me.To be honest, I really appreciate the show divulging from isekai and just focusing on fantasy altogether,and while it still has some sense of clicheness, I think the tropes are more refined.This is probabl…
