I do not know if everyone here is a fan of isekai, I am new here. As for me, isekai is my favorite genre. And I have been recently invested in mushoku tensei, I did read the manga before the episode release, BUT many people told me to go for the light novel. I did, and I cannot stop reading,
ITS FREAKING AMAZING!!!!
The visuals, the character development, and the plotline is absolutely incredible, although I will give it that the MC is kinda perverted, if you can call him the MC, but he was just another shut-in NEET, isekai'd into a fantasy world. Do not get me wrong, I know what you're thinking, this is just another anime with the same fantasy stuff with a little twist, well you would be wrong. This anime prioritizes in giving all the characters equal character development, so the world does not revolve around the MC like other isekais.

The Opening is beautiful too, the opening theme blends in with the story itself.

MAN I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR SEASON 2 FOR SO LONG NOW AND ITS FINALLY COMING!!!

I am new here, do add me as your friend, I would love to be one :D

YESSSSSSSSSS MUSHOKU TENSEI IS ONE OF MY FAV ISEKAIS AS WELL!!

Art visuals are top tier, the story and characters bonding is right there. I love how the journey outplays. One thing i dont like tho i that they call the seasons part 1 & 2 , instead of s2. feels like s2 is actually s3.

Also Mushoku Tensei got a super good AMV

When it comes to Isekais with me it is very hit and miss, missing most the time. I think it’s a good plot telling device but it allows authors to be lazy and the current trend is a copy paste with click bait and a unique quirk. (Reincarnated in another world as a vending machine.) A lot of the time they make the characters so out there they just aren’t relatable.

Mushoku Tensei
Now from my last comment I think you can already see where I will go with this, so let’s get the elephant in the room out the way. I really hate Rudeus as a character so much so he could have made a good villain. At the end of the day Rudeus is a pedo and people says he develops and gets better as the series progresses but he constantly disappoints me right up to the end of season 2. I will make a statement I think with a different main character other than Rudeus this could have been one of the greatest isekai of all time. (Rudeus drops at least 2 or 3 points off the anime for me.)

Now for the good things about Mushoku Tensei! It’s world building is amazing from each of the different areas to the amazing magic system. (If you haven’t read into the magic system it is very cool.) The fighting in the anime is top tier I didn’t even know a spear could look so cool, then the side characters are really well developed and have their own little quirks from a proud raging tsudere to obsessive and reliant character. Overall it is a good show! (^-^)

I mean... Where do I start?
OMG IT WAS A BLAST!!

Ok so I come from the anime stand point, as a show It really blew me away, I felt like it raised the stakes of what an Isekai should be. Rather than being a normal Harem with an Overpowered MC show it was a very "real" show.

It didnt just showcase the MC being overpowered(even tho he was to a certain extent), it showed him developing. After that arc it showed him developing himself more, building up a team and facing the world but not overcoming it easily.

To continue on the topic of the world, the world building was INSANE from all the different civilisations to different cities to discrimintation to everything. It just felt well put together.

The animation was legit OUTSTANDING, to fight scenes to campfire scenes to everything else, I say this very seriously: No other Isekai reaches this level of animation. I have nothing more to say on this.

My main and only problem with the show as a whole was the Main Character. He kinda grossed me out. His backstory's sad and while he did develop his character he always remained a pervert and I got some pedo vibes from him tbh which sadly havent gone down much.

Other than that it was a great show which I recommend highly, Thanks for asking :)

TLDR:
-Plot 9/10
-World Building 10/10
-Animation 9/10
-Mc 4/10
-Everything else(idk what else to mention) 9/10

I did enjoy Mushoku Tensei but I would agree with @Maku-Otaku. There are some points in which I felt uncomfortable about how the whole stuff was devolving into a pedo-dream. I would still recommend it but give an explanation at the very least to prepare people for this kind of stuff.

But in general, I do feel it is interesting and that the whole story is evolving in a good sense. The ideas behind the story are really good and sincerely, I do hope that they animate a 3rd season to continue the story from where we left.

I want to read more into the manga (and thanks to some spoilers, I have an idea of how it goes) but still, I think I would be interesting and all aboard on how stuff will go.

Thanks for the honest reply, but I seriously recommend you to read the LN which I think is better than the manga, and if you have already completed the anime, read from LN 7.

@SoulMinister I imagine it will get a third season so we will at least get to see the amazing world and animation some more! ;)

@nish4eva No worries that is what the topics are for. when it comes to the light novel maybe the only light novel I really read is Rezero so we will see if I get inspired to read anymore. :p
