But here a strong ADVICE to all anime-onlies. - IF YOU REALLY CARE ABOUT THIS SERIES... - AVOID THREADS OF DISCUSSION ABOUT MUSHOKU TENSEI - Or take EXTRA-care about what you are reading. Out of well-moderated places, in special, like comments of youtube videos. This series have "turning points", and in fact some chapters of the novel have this literal title. And the readers LOVE to spoil about this. If you thought animes like Attack on Titan are in spoiler dangerous territory, you have no idea about this one. Eyes are too fast to avoid the damage. |

| This is by far the strongest premiere of the season so far when it comes to the new shows. I loved every second of it. The monologues throughout this episode were gold, the comments he made about his own mum and Roxy were priceless. I respect that. Speaking about Roxy, oh my lord I already love her. A bit biased that she's voiced by Konomi Kohara (and blue hair), but she's adorable and not what I had initially expected as she is Rudy's teacher. Rudy's mum is a bombshell, also what was that grin when she found out he used intermediate magic, she's a keeper! So far I have no complaints, Animation looked really good. Really digging the art as well, it's been a long time since I have been this excited for an Isekai Anime.

My coworker said something similar when he got excited for this adaptation. I am really looking forward to more of this show and I would hate it for spoilers to ruin the fun. Thanks for the warning!! |

| the mom’s “evil” smile sold me on this now. the personalities especially the mage’s are fun so far too |
| Is it happening? finally a new isekai i'm gonna enjoy? Holy shit. |

|
| So this is basically Kenja no Mago but with amazing visuals. |
 |
| I cannot express how much I enjoyed this; seeing this person caught between the mind and ideas of adult and wonder and body of a child is so funny. It was hilarious every time he had a perverted though whilst we visually see him as an adorable little boy, especially when he tried to cope a feel of Zenith's oppai and realised he was a baby π I was really surprised by the animation quality; a lot of Isekai have pretty crappy animation no matter how great their plot & characters are, but the animation was vivid, tidy and especially stunning in the scenes where Rudy started to use magic. |
 |
| Let's see how it goes. It appears to be adapting the LN quite well. It's been 5 years since I read it. I already forgot most of the details. |
| This is like a Isekai with Kyon as the main character. Freaking phenomenal. |
| I put this on my plan to watch since it looked like a magic-witch/wizard est anime. My expectations were met. Im is so happy to see more anime like the past few seasons. First Majo no Tabitabi now this. Mwah beautiful |
  |
| Great episode. They adapt it wonderfully, and the art and animation is nice too. The OST is good. The character like Rudeus are captured it faithfully. And we met Roxy too. Overall pretty great with high expectations. |
 |
| Crazy how well produced this first episode was. I knew from the trailer this was going to be a big dog, but actually watching it I was still blown away by how well it's made. If it continues to look this way throughout it'll definitely be up there with Konosuba, LH, ReZero and Overlord in my book. Maybe even better depending on how the story develops. This will basically be the perfect self-aware power fantasy. Surprised at how lively the characters actually are, definitely more care put into it than the usual. Hope it does well and gets a second season two, if it stays consistent of course. RayReynolds said: bootleg thatanimesnob rant Writing down what happened in the episode aggressively and with a bunch of hyperboles doesn't mean you're being a good critic. You might as well just write ''I think it's shit.'' and be done with it. |
 |
| well that was a lot of fun, starting with him as a ecchi baby, adding in the magic learning, the house destruction, and ofc, the cute Roxy with her white panties...cough cough LOL anyway, i totally approve this first episode, high chances i'll finish this one, based on what i saw so far |
favorite "new girls" from fall 2024 <3 (yeah i didn't watch much in 2025...) ... click sig for older seasons  |
| A very solid first episode for an isekai anime. Characters seems ok and I don't already hate the MC which is good news. I've heard decent things about the LN so I have decent hopes for this show. |
 |
| I'm actually really impressed at the final product this anime delivered this first episode. It looked so pleasing to the eyes, the MC voice acting was *chef's kiss*. I'm genuinely impressed, I guess because I was expecting a lot worse, but still. |
 |
| the artstyle, the music, the worldbuilding, the animations, his char development holy fuck this is AAA |
 |
| Fantastic start, easily among one of the best starting episodes I've seen for an Isekai show. Love the focus on explaining the world or rather I love the way we're discovering the world systems like magic along with Rudy, but rather than just info dumping it all in one place in a huge bit of dialogue we go through it one piece at a time with some very nice visual sequences and comedic moments either breaking them up or emphasizing them further. The production is great, the art is insane and the animation especially for the spells was beautiful. I hope they can keep this quality up. The parents are great, they make some awfully loud noises too. ( Ν‘° ΝΚ Ν‘°) Rudy seems like a fun protagonist, with a good measure of pervert in him, though I'm curious how old he'll be as the main part of the story begins, I'd rather he be a little older if he wants to keep his perverted tendencies but hey even if he ends up being a perverted shota I won't complain too much if it's still good and fun to watch. Roxy was cute too. Here's to hoping this turns out to be one of the better isekai's. |
 |
| This is a nice little gem I did not expect. Everything just feels good about this anime. Story, humor, animation, voicelines, pacing, characters, abit of darkness, solid magic system. It truly has it all. Even in this isekai overloaded times, this anime might just outshine them all. |
| This worth being called the mother of all issekai, Gin chan voice makes it even better for me. |
| more isekai! his parents casually fucking in the other room lmao. I like this main character Rudy, he's a genius too. Training since like 1 year old. Roxy is cute too. I'm going to enjoy this isekai. |
 |
| God damn how does this show have such a high rating on this site? I mean the animation is fantastic, and that's more important than than some people give it credit for, but the whole show is just kinda... eh? I love Sugita but god damn he just goes on and on, and the character he plays says some downright pedophilic shit. |
 |
| What a surprise! I liked it so much! ^_^ |
| hearing all the baggage of the MC well before this came out and some awful shit about him having sugita voice his inner adult self which is already weird in its self due to him starting off as a baby is such a huge slap in the face i rarely ever hate voice lead roles but this is one time were i'm like NOO why is it sugita!? can we not make him say pedophilic shit?. but not much else to comment it's the first episode of one of those nothing stand out besides the very pretty visuals and animation only thing i'm not a huge fan of the film grain effect. will see where this goes right now MC just seems like a dumb pervert but i have no idea outside what i heard how worse it gets or if they'll tone it done |
 |
| Can't wait to see Twitter and other bullshit communities getting super mad in the next three episodes with Paul. Btw, that's what a studio with time to work can do, if the rest of the season have the same animation as the first episode, it's gonna be a masterpiece without a doubt |

| Tbh,I was a bit worried about this series.I've read the LN and the manga translated so far,and I love it,but I was worried that they'd make a total wreck of this. So, "bits of the manga and LN have been left out to make this fit better as an anime" I thought this as I watched,and tbh,yes,bits have been left out,but I didn't really miss them.It started good and ended a lot better. The animation is well above par,and the characters voices seem to fit more or less just as I imagined them(though I keep waiting for Rudy's "inner voice" to start coming up with comments about Doge-san,though he DID comment on Zenith's huge oppai). so far it's looking really good,but what really got my attention(well,apart from Roxy being even cuter than I was hoping for)was the fact they kept in the sex and panties bits as well,and also,that theme at the end,that was absolutely superb. I'm looking forward to the next episode,and hopefully more after that. Addendum,just listened to the full version of the OP theme Tabibito no Uta by Yuiko Ohara,damn,that is one beautiful song! |

| So far, the hype is real. I'm happy it was well written and well animated |
| It's only the first episode but it's cool that the Re:Zero author is already tweeting about this show which is pretty awesome, wouldn't be surprised if people criticized him for enjoying a show with such a pervy mc lol |
| Nice, really enjoying this so far. The animation style is really beautiful. Looking forward to seeing where this goes! |
 |
| oh that was good! hilarious!? still good! 5/5. |
 |
| Is the voice Sugita? |
| Visually speaking, it's really absurd how good this series looks but man, MC is such a loser. Almost 90% of his inner monologues were so cringey to hear. So... leaving visuals aside, it was a pretty meh and kinda boring start overall. Hearing the parents fucking like rabbits gave me a good laugh tho. |
| Dogeza de tanondemita isekai arc. Without dogeza and with TPP view. |
| I'm not joking that Re:Zero 2 actually got a serious competition this season to be the BEST ISEKAI show. Like holy hell this show is going to be unleashed as a gem for 2021. |
 |
| Mixed feelings about this first episode. For the most part it presented us with amazing visuals and the music used was really good too. Even though its an isekai, I found the premise kinda interesting because we can see how the MC learn and develop overtime from the beginning of his new life (being an infant). But the one thing that bugs me is of course, the pervy inner thoughts of our main character, Rudeus. I just hope they tone down it a bit in the next episodes and just focus in further world building and magic system in the next episodes. |
 I accept random friend requests! |
| Good first episode, visuals are amazing, premise is interesting, sound design is good, directing and pacing seems good, the only problem I have is Rudeus himself, I can't stand his pervy personality. |
* |
| I love the main character already, Sugita voicing him makes it top. Really pretty art |
That was a rather impressive first episode. They put so much action and detail in just one episode. Excited for this series now. |
