What do you guys think about Mushoku Tensei?

If it didn't cut out important content from the novels I might agree with you.

I think its amazing, the most important thing they do in my opinion is the fact Rudeus is imperfect and feels like a real person.

Writing is great, not exactly a masterpiece, but has moments that are masterclass.

MT stops and builds up things other isekais take for granted.

An easy skip for me. Just because it takes its time, doesn't change the fact that it is another "loser gets sent to another world where he is super powerful and surrounded by girls"

Lmao how can someone be so delusional

Wait, it’s MT fan, understandable. Have a nice day.

@nishant0 instead of trying to insult other people in a threat that directly asks them for their views on a fictional narrative, you could have just said "don't like it mate, it's just so f*cking weird all around". Like, I am sorry, but it just doesn't work when you are trying to show your superiority to a group of people, by just behaving rude. If you really only wanted to tell people how wrong they are in enjoying the things they do, then you should probably spend your time differently. Apart from that, don't group people together based on arbitrary standards, MT fans aren't a cult, don't make this about a group bias, this was a question directed at individual people with individual responses that all range from "Love it", "hate it" to just "I don't care". This is the same as if I were to call this "classic Frieren stan behaviour" even though this has nothing to do with that. Don't interpret the fact that people enjoy a work that you don't as deranged or the product of an echo chamber, just let them be, it's none of your business really.

You too, have a nice day.

@Lucianael Well, if someone is claiming a show as some sort of objective masterpiece when in actual the show is garbage imo, so it's obvious that I'd call them delusional, but that's just I think, if you like it, good for you. I hope you keep enjoying it.

@nishant0 when someone calls something a masterpiece, that is not an attempt at objective judgement. We all know that there is no such thing as an objectively flawless piece of fiction, but whenever you express your view on something, you can say "that thing is perfect" without it being an attempt at an objective statement. This is simply because the mere fact that you said it, already clearly means that this is not objective. You don't have to always say "well, in my opinion..." because it can't be anything but your opinion. There is a difference between believing your opinion to be an objective truth and stating something to be "a masterpiece", because nobody believes a statement like that to be the final judgement to a piece of fiction. You are not delusional for calling something perfect, you are just expressing your view, which, as should be obvious, is inherently subjective. There is a great video about this by Joseph Anderson, where he goes over this exact thing and the simple fact that subjectivity is always implied.

In conclusion, people can call Mushoku Tensei whatever they want, they can call it a Masterpiece, the fall of human civilization or the most boring piece of fiction they ever experienced. To be clear, this does not mean, that you should ignore stating when something is your opinion, at least not when it is integral to the thing you are discussing, but in this case, the threat directly asks people to share their opinion. Nobody here is making their view to be the objective reality and if they truly were, if that was what they really believed, then you would be somewhat justified in your criticism. Though even then, the closest thing we have to an objective evaluation of art is to measure the average response, the bigger the sample size the better. By that logic Mushoku Tensei would still be inherently flawed but that would also mean that it is on average well received and thus, as objectively speaking as we can really get, an at the very least good piece of fiction. I am not a fan of taking these scores as the final solution to objectivity, simply because there are so many things that make that a bad decision, but let's ignore all that, because this doesn't matter either way. This threat is not about the total score of the show, it is about asking individual people about their experience with a narrative, that's it.

@Lucianael I did share my opinion, I think fans like op are delusional who thinks "it's insanely rare to find someone that genuinely thinks Mushoku isn't a masterpiece." which basically meant I dislike both its fanbase and show itself. Now about the show, I mainly started it because of its world and adventure, I never really give a shit about its main character and others, they are just alright. Now it just turned into some family drama crap, which in the end MC going to ends up marring girls, so yeah this isn't really my thing anymore.

@nishant0 Your opinion on the show is understandable, and I am not going to argue against that, I just want to ask, why do you feel a need to tell these people that you view as lesser, that they are delusional? If you believe that to be an obvious fact and don't care for them, why do you go out of your way to insult them?

I never said it as a FACT and it isn't really going out of my way when I just have to type few words that comes in my mind while reading op's post, however if you consider it an insult then it is It's a different thing.

@nishant0 I hardly see how calling someone delusional was not meant to insult them, but I digress, you seem reasonable enough to judge for yourself if insulting people is a good thing or not, I think I made my point clear enough and if you disagree then I am okay with that. My only question left is, was your original message only directed at the OP, or was it also in response to messages posted by other people in this threat?

that much is pretty obvious from my post, so figure yourself, i guess.

@nishant0 not really though, the fact that you generalize this implies you are talking about a group, while "MT fan" is singular. "Someone" also doesn't need to refer to a single individual. "Wait, it’s MT fan, understandable" is not grammatically correct, thus I would need to assume, that you made a grammatical error, but did not make an error when it came to the word "fan" (singular). My point is not, that it is somehow a problem that you made an error when writing a message, who cares, but in this case I really am unsure how to read it.
