Mushoku Tensei: Isekai Ittara Honki Dasu - Eris no Goblin Toubatsu

During their stay in the capital of Milishion, the adventurers of Dead End decide to split up for a day to run their errands. While Rudeus Greyrat has his plans derailed by a troublesome scene, the party's swordswoman, Eris Boreas Greyrat, finds herself with nothing to do. Deciding to embark on an adventure to slay goblins, Eris crosses paths with a cocky but talented mage named Cliff Grimoire. Though Eris refuses his company, Cliff stubbornly ignores her wishes and dares her to explore the perilous forest surrounding the city. Accepting his challenge, Eris ventures into the forest with the mage, where the two encounter something far more repulsive than mere goblins.

Mushoku Tensei for the most part stands on well paced storytelling matched by great animation and characters to boot. This special is simply a side story giving context to the actions of Eris in the background of an episode, primarily to introduce a few characters.

On its own it is a pretty solid idea and shortly places said characters in the anime’s universe prior to their relevancy. The only problem with this is that it seems that these characters basically do nothing other than being named and the only one with ample screen time comes off as irritating.

The special, although not horrible or unenjoyable is ... noticeably lesser in quality in comparison to the main anime. Usually characters aren’t so abruptly shown or forced on screen but it feels that way in this. The plots is a background to events from another perspective so it’s pretty bland and the addition of characters to the universe doesn’t feel natural. In addition, the animation is also a significant downgrade as it contains far more stills and generally looks quite choppy in contrast to the usual beautiful animation.

For Mushoku Tensei the special is sub-par but overall it’s alright and mildly entertaining so if you enjoy the show give it a watch but don’t expect it to be nearly the same level of quality one would expect.

English.
It is a chapter for me of pure and mere filler that does not contribute much, it only tells us what Eris did in the course that she told Rudeus that she would hunt goblins, it is simple and can go unnoticed of how insignificant this special episode is, also without this nothing would happen maybe some characters that appeared here will be relevant in the future but for now that is not the case.
It continues with a very beautiful animation and also telling us something interesting but I think it fails to show us something different to be a special episode.
In conclusion I think ... it is an episode that is good but I think it could have been much more entertaining or shown us something that will come out in the next season.

Español.
Es un capítulo para mí de mero y puro relleno que no aporta mucho, solo nos dice lo que hizo Eris en el transcurso que le dijo a Rudeus que cazaría goblins, es sencillo y puede pasar desapercibido de lo insignificante que es este episodio especial, además sin este no pasaría nada puede que algunos personajes que salieron aquí sean relevantes en el futuro pero por lo mientras no es el caso.
Sigue con una animación muy hermosa y también contándonos algo interesante pero creo que falla en mostrarnos algo diferente para ser un episodio especial.
En conclusión creo que es un episodio que está bien pero creo que pudo ser mucho más entretenido o mostrarnos algo que saldrá en la siguiente temporada.

this special is so much of a spit in the face of an original story as it gets. The art style is crude, lines are so rough and thic that you cant take your eyes out of it, animation is a slideshow, not smooth but like 15 fps in a videogame slow, it hurts when you watch. Story is cheap, new characters are lazy and predictable. also story overal is generic and has nothing to offer. i waited for so long for this episode and my expectations were broken and my day is ruined. i hope second season wont be as disapointing as "this"...
