I m surprised, I though they were going to rush this volume out, but it seems very much unlikely now considering how much they have to do for volume 2... if they go slower for it, that means volume 3 will have to be rushed no?

Loving seeing Eris brought to life, and has people can already see, she is slowly changing~~

can they stop with the sexual assault?? it ruins the whole anime smh


Oh don't you worry, much later on in the story, Rudeous is the one getting assaulted! xD

I still dont understand something!Rudes wanted to go to magic school with sylph. Bcuz he didnt want to leave her alone and in order to to that he leaves her alone for 5 years? He leaves a 5 years old for 5 years? That doesn't make any sense to me.


Go back and watch again, he didn't have many choices.
His dad knew he would oppose going away from her, that is why he did what he did, and Rudeous is a logical person so he came to terms with it since that way he will be able to win money for both and will be the best for both to separate for a time.

Again, this was explained, dont think too much about it, there is nothing else to think about.

Here we see the MC grapple with the ever-revolving question of "Should I molest little girls"?

His inner old man tells him "Yes, we should". Such character, wow. Best anime! Truly a character flaw to this nuanced portrayal of man vs nature.

this episode felt kinda filler in a way?? but it was also creepy asf??

although this anime is filled with pervy scenes (often played for comedic effect), none of those scenes until now made me physically scroll down into the comments and cringe out of pure disgust. it just isn't right. i hated this episode because rudeus is crossing the f'ing line.

now don't get me wrong, i've read the manga; what happened to eris there is arguably worse (i won't describe it because spoilers obviously). this is probably a hot take because a lot of anime fans are desensitized to this kind of stuff, and if i werent so much a snowflake, i wouldn't complain. but im sorry that i just dont find children attractive.

i hope fellow viewers of this series understand. i don't hate the series; i'm interested in this 'grandaddy of isekai' and whatnot; i just hope rudeus mentally matures and isn't so much controlled by his immoral vices.

Since this seems to be all anyone is talking about, I’ll give my two cents on the controversy:

I don’t mind it (too much at least) since the story, world building, and production quality are too good to drop over this, but what I’m concerned about is it’s kinda hard to recommend this to other people. Quality is good and all, and hearing that the show is more faithful to the series than the official translation even through controversy is nice to hear, but I’m concerned with how well it will sell because of it. No matter how good or well received by it’s fans a show is, if it’s not selling well, then the quality may drop if not being abandoned altogether. With how much people can’t seem to argue with anything but this, along with the whole China situation, I’m worried we might have only 1 season with high production quality before a drop in quality, or a hiatus of the anime.

I can't recall the groping or the Aphrodisiac scene in the novel. But it seems that I have read the toned down version of it. For the former, I thought he was only looking and guessing her size. But no, he's actually groping them. Gross, indeed. And for the latter, it was completely missing in the novel that I read.

Mushoku Tensei has finally reached Monogatari-level of problematic media (Side note: I love both shows and I completely disagree with their problematic parts). As the controversial scene happens, I was holding my head in distress as I guessed the amount of hate threats it's going to entail. I love the show, and I don't want the show to get cancelled because of its apparent problematic parts. Damn it, I'm worried now because there are a few "more problematic" scenes in the future that can be judged as inappropriate by the white knights.

Aside from that, Eris is developing well, the most important point for me to have. Are they going to skip Eris' birthday party? They probably do. It's a shame because I want to see Rudeus and Eris' dance.

I just knew this ep would bring out the "best" in people.
For me,I enjoyed it thoroughly,since it's a damn good piece of storytelling.
Anyways,what really gets me about this anime is the animation itself,its superb,and the OP/ED,esp the ED animation.The OP song makes it feel like your watching an epic,and the ED song makes it feel like your waiting for the manure and fan :)
Truly astounding how good this adaption is.

I think you might want to backtrack a little on how you phrased that,as there will probably be some backlash from the white knights ;)

On the other note,I think the title of next weeks episode indicates that that will be about Eris's birthday party,since its quite a big point in Eris's growth.
Oh damn,now I've gone and done it as well :)

I don't understand what the problem is, the protagonist of this anime was a lollicon, the point of the story is to show his growth from a piece of shit to a good person, husband and father, the point is to prove that every person deserves a second chance that's why the prisons and social reintegration exist, I find it more dangerous all the people who still cheer for Eren after he became a fascist genocide, it makes you understand how dictatorships and genocides can still happen under the excuse of the freedom of the people .....

Molesting girls in their sleep? MC is at one step of becoming Paul but worse. Also nice skit with him obtaining what basically is a rape drug. Pretty funny, author...

Well, guess this series can't exist without forcibly including sexual connotations in every episode. Last episode was decent while it lasted.
On a positive note (I guess?), I didn't know Ghislaine had a cute side. I'm kinda liking her character, not gonna lie.

The part where Rudeus assaulted Eris had me cringe so hard, I couldn't even look at the screen. The fact that he is actually pretty old makes it even worse. Can't believe people actually enjoy that.
And the pacing felt a little off too. Probably worst episode of the 6.

Prepare for next episode because it will be wholesome, this is also the beginning of Rudy's and Eris's character development. Just wait because this will be one of the greatest isekai anime

I want to give notice to all of you manga or WN readers, this anime will be different from this 2 sources because its original source is LN, so if you said that the manga or WN is different from the anime then it is normal because the anime follow the LN faithfully up until now

MT is no.1 on NND which is the most popular site for watching anime. AOT would have been no.1 but it airs on NHK which is the national channel, so everyone has it in Japan, so most probably people are just watching it on TV.

The most disappointing has been Re:zero. The viewership has decreased by a lot in Japan, most probably because there is hardly any Rem and she is the most popular girl in the franchise
Nagatsuki Tappei (ReZero): It goes without saying that "Mushoku Tensei" is interesting, but first of all, it's amazing that you were able to depict the life of one character, Rudy. People say that "CLANNAD" is life, but for me, "Mushoku Tensei" is life

Rudy doesn't have much of a choice. Its explained in the novels but the people who actually initiated the conversation with Paul was Sylphie's parents. According to them their daughter was becoming too dependent on Rudy. She would just keep talking about him at home as well.

Paul saw similar things with Rudy as well. So both set of parents make a conscious decision to separate the two forcefully. We are only seeing Rudy's side in the anime, but on Sylphie's side she becomes distraught. However, it also forces her to take her life in her own hands and become independent. I don't wanna spoil it too much.

From what saw as anime-only viewer as of now. I have a feeling that the girl Rudeus loves the most is Sylphiette. Of course at the end of the series it might turn out otherwise. Episode 4 for example, It's just how his mood looks when he was thinking of his "masterplan" for Sylphiette's future, rolling happily on his bed while hugging his pillow and giggling saying her name outloud, "Sylphie~!"
One of his happiest time in his new home, overcoming his past trauma thanks to Roxy, so he can be more honest about his personal feelings in private and he gets to live this new life like a video game he played and also as Prerudy, longed for years for a "hot girl" to move in his house and make out.

And "Prerudy" is what I'm going to call him from now on, the one before he became Rudeus Grayrat.

I imagine Eris is going to be punching Rudeus for years like it's one of her everyday exercise, so it is hard to guess that Eris is his favorite. Cannot buy "Dere" for money and going to work hard to earn the "Dere" sounds like a complete joke to me compared to motivations for Sylphiette.
With Roxy, no telling since she herself giving the teasers of "After ten years, maybe". Rudeus may simply love her, but that is kind of it I guess.

Overall pretty wholesome episode, except maybe Rudeus waking up Eris lmao. Really looking forward to the next episode.

Did anyone understand the reference being made when Rudeus starts to call Ghislaine "Raide-"? I've never played either, but could it be a Metal Gear or Mortal Kombat reference? I checked the Seven Seas translation of the LN, but during his internal monologue at this point he calls her "Ryuk" instead.
and i guess

that i just don't know
