Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation


A 34-year old shut in is kicked out of the apartment and while seeing people almost get hit by a car pushes them out of the way and dies himself. This causes him to be reborn in another world as Rudeas Greyrat. Rudeas plans to learn everything he can about this new world and starting with the use of magic. The general belief is that people are born with a set amount of magic, but after study and practice Rudeas learns that this belief is false and grows the amount of magic he can use. He eventually gets a teacher named Roxy who is a demon. This causes him to gain confidence and help others like a half-elf girl named Sylphiette who after Rudeas came to her aid became his childhood friend. Even with all these new experiences Rudeas is still bothered by his past life. Will Rudeas be able to overcome the fears and mistakes of his past life?

After all the hype that Mushoku Tensei gets I was setting my expectations low when I first watched it. I also had read the beginning of the manga and was disappointed, so I stopped after the first few chapters. However, I think that the anime did a good job. Since Rudeas is mentally a 34-year old he comes off as a pervert. This causes there to be some fan service throughout the season. There is a scene where you see the maid fully undressed, a bath scene with Sylphiette, and even a part where Rudeas pushes Eris onto his bed and touches her inappropriately. There is also a lot of moaning at the beginning of the season coming from Rudeas's parents room. There is some swearing, but not a lot. While I had my doubts at first I ended up really enjoying it. If you don't mind the few weird things that Rudeas does I would definitely suggest it, Mushoku Tensei is the type of show where every episode is better than the one before it,
