I'll give it a try. I'm not too much hyped but could be a big surprise.

I agree there must be a reason why it got really good critique and scores considering it being a harem and isekai.

I was impressed by the first paragraph under "Synopsis", a bit interested, if nothing.

Then comes the end lines of next paragraph and then i'm thinking...." This will make an excellent shota hentai anime."

LOL

Ugh, When i saw the words "NEET", i could already tell it was just like all of the other isekai's, but upon reading the full synopsis, it's clear without any doubt in mind that this is nothing but another garbage ecchi harem wish fulfillment, no thank you, i'm going to pass on this!

Read some of the manga adaptation and its pretty boring. Wouldn't call it "bad" but it's kinda creepy the way the wish-fulfillment parts are shown. This will not be anything groundbreaking but no doubt this will be gobbled up pretty easily.

dk if this counts as spoiler[...]

Kami-Koto said:

Have you considered not posting 8 times in a row and spoiling the contents of the story?

ObnoxiousArtist said:


Actually, the harem only consists of just 3 girls, and it actually took some time for them to develop feelings for him.

He's not dense and he's actually making the moves on them.

I was gonna read the LN, but I'm gonna skip this because I've heard a lot of bad things.

Minor spoilers:

-MC is a pedo. MC is 40+ years old in the body of a little boy and he is lusting after other kids. When he is 13 he even fucks his cousin who is underage.

-MC is a big pervert. He gets aroused the moment he sees a little skin, and he’s always trying to peek on girls (MC is like 40+ and the girls 10-15), or steal their unwashed panties.

-There is incest (I hate incest)

-MC cheats on his wife ( I hate people who cheat on their loved ones)

-There is polygamy (Polygamy is when you marry more than 1 woman). I hate MC who can't just choose 1 wife. It can't be that hard to just fuck 1 girl


Mushoku Tensei is pure wish fulfilment. I hate those kind of storys.

First and foremost, you are terribly wrong, and that's just for letting other people's interpretations affect your critical judgement. Say it's bad AFTER you have read even 1 volume. Yes, you can decide not to read just because it has things you hate, but by not doing it you're missing the full context of almost everything:

Yes, MC is a pedo, and yes, he fucks her cousin. But she is not underage, she is 15, an that's not considered as "underaged" in that world, and believe me she does't look like your average loli, hell at 15 she's even more well endowed than many matured womans. Again, yes, that would sound you like an excuse, but if you say that, it's like you're closing off your eyes of reading, refusing to even try to comprehend the circumstances, a thing almost obligued to enjoy a story.

There is NO INCEST in any inch of the story, at least on MC's part, and if it happens anytime is labeled as BAD. MC is perverted to no ends, but he NEVER lays a finger on his sisters, mother, or woman beside his wifes.

There is polygamy... Does that bother you to the point of not reading the story? Or you prefer other harem stories that never establish a fucking satisfying conclusion? Yes, it's wish fulfillment, but also it's a harem, and I prefer ten times polygamy over the bullshit of "can't decide one of the girls", which is even more irritating imo.

Yes he technically cheats on his wife once, but the way you say it, together with all the criticism you have been raising against the novel, makes it look like you see him like a piece of trash at the moment of comitting the act, when in reality it was practically forced on him.

Rudeus is a piece of trash indeed, but only at the beginning at the story, Mushoku Tensei is all about redeeming himself into a responsible, psychologically matured person.

If you're going to critique this work in any aspect, please read it first and critique the things that you didn't like AND you read about, not the ones you haven't.

Don't skip it because you hate wish fulfillment stories, because for the last time, yes, it is pure wish fulfillment, but also there is a message behind it all.

I am not gonna read this novel because I know I'll hate it.

The thing that is most important for me in an anime/manga/novel is the MC. I can't enjoy an anime if I dislike/hate the MC. The biggest reason because I am not gonna read this is because the MC is a pedo.

I hate Pedofilies. They disgust me. There is nothing I hate more. I am not gonna read a manga about a 40+ man who lust after 7 year old girls and steals their panties. I can't believe that people are alright with the MC being a pedo. Just because you can fuck a 15 year old in the world that you transferred too, doesn't make it ok. People don't fuck kids because that's disgusting and the right thing to do, not because the law prevents them from doing it. Your even saying that it is ok because she looks old. Dude, I don't know if you know this, but it is not okay for a 40+ year old man to fuck a 15 year old even if she looks older than she is.

When I said there was incest, I meant the relationship between the MC and his cousin. A lot of people don't consider that as incest, but I do.

I hate polgamy, But I am ok with it if I like the MC. As you might have already guessed, I don't like the MC.

It doesn't matter if he was practically forced to cheat on his wife. It is still cheating. Your just making a lot of excuses. Your even trying to defend the MC for being a pedo.

I don't know how a 40+ year old man who steals panties from 7 year old girls and fucks a 15 year old girl can redeem himself.

I don't care if it has a message behind. If I want to read something with a message behind it, I will read something where I don't hate 95% of the story.

What if you're in this situation and you get reincarnated as a baby in this new world. I guess you'll avoid any romantic relation with anyone below your actual age? If so, then the only option for you are those that are 40+ (Including the one that he stole the panties from (Yes, she's actually around the same age as Rudeus's true age and has a complex about it)). You would refuse the advances of a 200+ years old (very sexy) elf aswel, because that would be reverse pedo (Rudeus actually doesn't do her, but you know what I mean).

You actually got it wrong with the incest one, he didn't fuck her, she fucked him. She initiated it and he was making double sure that she wanted it and told her he couldn't hold back if she continued. Still incest but it's normal in that world (Besides, if Rudeus wasn't there, she would end up with an other cousin).

I'll be honest, I also dislike Polygamy anime (Even more if he just can't decide), but that's because it just feels forced and unrealistic. What Mushoku Tensei does is making sure we know those characters and give it time to develop those feelings. Then have them seperated and meet again later on.

About the cheating part, yes it was dispiciable even though it was forced upon him (for a very good reason). But he took resposibility on it and confessed to his wife, fully aware it could end up in a divorce.


It's fine if you don't want to watch/read it, but don't try to keep others away from it, just because you don't like it or hate some elements of the story (That's actually being adressed in the story).

Dude THANK YOU VERY MUCH for taking your time to argue with this... person.
I also tried my best (hope you read my arguments) to convince him that all the things he heard (he didn't even read the story) were heavily biased.
In the end I gave up and tried instead to make him not spoke in that manners about the story, just because he hated it.

I put this LN on hold because it got kind of boring and the quality decreased. I'm going to watch this just because of best girl Eris!
Also for the love of God let it have at least 2 cours/25 episodes!

Story writer Rifujin na Magonote announced via his Twitter account that an anime adaptation for his Mushoku Tensei: Isekai Ittara Honki Dasu light novel series has been decided. More information will be revealed later.

Synopsis
Killed while saving a stranger from a traffic collision, a 34-year-old NEET is reincarnated into a world of magic as Rudeus Greyrat, a newborn baby. With knowledge, experience, and regrets from his previous life retained, Rudeus vows to lead a fulfilling life and not repeat his past mistakes.

Now gifted with a tremendous amount of magical power as well as the mind of a grown adult, Rudeus is seen as a genius in the making by his new parents. Soon, he finds himself studying under powerful warriors, such as his swordsman father and a mage named Roxy Migurdia—all in order to hone his apparent talents. But despite his innocent exterior, Rudeus is still a perverted otaku, who uses his wealth of knowledge to make moves on women whom he could never make in his previous life. [Written by MAL Rewrite]

Rifujin na Magonote wrote the light novel series via Shousetsuka ni Narou website from November 2012 to April 2015. Kadokawa has released the light novel series under the Media Factory imprint with art by Sirotaka since January 2014, and 20 volumes have been released as of January 25. It made repeated appearances on the site's rankings as the most popular work during its serialization. A manga version, drawn by Yuka Fujikawa, has been serialized via Comic Flapper magazine since the June 2014 issue. MF Comic Flapper series imprint will release the 10th compiled volume on March 23. The Roxy spin-off manga series, drawn by Shouko Iwami, started its serialization via ComicWalker in December 2017, and two physical volumes have been released as of last September. Kadokawa also released a 4-koma manga of the series via Comic Dengeki Daiouji since last October. A drama CD was released last April, featuring Hiro Shimono as Rudeus.

Seven Seas Entertainment is publishing the light novels in English. The first physical volume is set to ship on May 21 with an early digital release on April 4. Seven Seas Entertainment has also been publishing the manga adaptation of the novel since 2015. Its ninth volume is scheduled to be released on August 20, while the English physical volume release of the Roxy spin-off manga will debut on April 30.
