If you can ignore all the loli/pedo shit (which I don't blame you if you can't) this show has some good things to offer, specifically in its story telling and character department, Its truly something else witnessing a 34 year old man-child getting a second chance after fapping his rooster to some hentai. All the characters have quite a bit of depth, wether its a character that's added for comedic effect or a character that is essential for developing the story, now does this mean they treat the characters as well as they write them? of course not, as I mentioned earlier they throw this gross ass loli fan service down your throat every damn episode, its not to deepen the relationship of the character, it is strictly there to please to lolicons, I've noticed that people use the argument "it isn't that important" its important enough to bring down the score of a 8/10 show to a 6/10, I hate watching characters I genuinely like, being manipulated and molested just to display that the main character is a pervert, once would be fine with me, but i happens every damn episode just to please the viewer, its not comedically entertaining, it just makes me uncomfortable, I want to stop talking about this element because its actually the only main issue I have with the series the story is still opening up to us as a bigger issue is now occurring, the world is actually mysterious making me question if the black spot on my penis is actually that unique, I love stories that depict a whole characters life, and although this series fails when it comes to romantic character relationships, it certainly doesn't fail in displaying progress in Knowledge/Power this fucker learned multiple languages in 2 years, he also somehow learned how to touch a wolfs asshole (that's how all fanservice should be btw) this isn't some easy feat for the protagonist, it actually shows how difficult it is to learn such subjects, and with our protagonists special power of curiosity he's truly unraveling into a likeable character, he just needs to drop the pedo shit, and to shatter your hopes of that happening, I don't think it will happen anytime soon
Below I will leave a much more bland review with no humor intended
Story 7/10
Mushoku Tensei has a interesting and clever world, comprised of actual lore that doesn't make you want to snap your neck, Its a world that can only be adapted into multiple season's.
Art 8/10
A studio made, just to make this a Anime, they have made a rather respectable adaptation, its probably the best looking anime this season, and that's no small achievement considering Mappa was in the game this season as well.
Sound 8/10
You're aware music/sound is art right, fucking idiots...
Character 5/10
Characters with depth put into awful situations with no real purpose but to make the viewer feel uncomfortable, if fanservice just didn't exist in this anime this rating would be much higher.
Enjoyment 6/10
I'm attached to almost everything this anime offers, but I'm constantly being made uncomfortable from the gross loli fanservice
Overall 6/10
This rating is based on my particular weak stomach when it comes to loli's, this score will certainly differ when it comes to how you deal with such topics, I can't recommend this to many people for said reason
Final Note
This review has practically become a rant on loli's and for that I apologize but on another note how many times did I say loli during this review, first one to get it gets a kiss from your boy
