Ladies and gentlemen welcome to another season of Ugly Bastard's Bizarre Adventures! Where a NEET and perverted main character is in a body of a 12-year-old boy.
Mushoku Tensei is probably one of the anticipated anime from the fans who watched the first season and the fans who read the novel, written by some helmet guy who has fetishes in his story. Tbh the first season was like an ecchi adventure that somewhat has a fine story (even it was sometimes boring though), but this one? This season I consider being one of the lowest isekai. I never usually write reviews for the show I really like but this one's bugging me why this show a highly rated. Is this show is for cultured people?
Story:
The story was after the mana calamity, Rudy, Eris, and the bald guy created a party in which they tried to go back home from the demon continent. Well, as for the other viewers who said that the world-building is a masterpiece, for me it's still not. It's just like a medieval Europe in a fantasy world so nothing new here. We saw new characters that are just forgettable. Beast men here, fox ladies there and it was quite generic like in other fantasy animes. I noticed some ass-pulls from the show like Rudy was given a magical eye from a stripper who flashed her panties in front of Rudy, just because he gave her food (Rudy is still a perverted af). Food for a magic eye. Sound dumb, right? As for one of the ass-pulls, the god who reincarnated and guide him through his journey, that an one big deus ex machina. If Rudy is in grave danger, the tables will suddenly just turn. Rudy became an overpowered MC because not only he has a god on his side, he had a strong lady and a powerful bald guy. One of them encountered was a prince that has fetishes on Roxy. I mean, what? The prince kidnapped the maid and Rudy just because of his fetishes? And the part when many audiences were overreacting over one guy that might be one of the antagonists in the story. They just introduced that guy and the whole audience clamored that this show is a masterpiece. Nah... It looked like just Demon Slayer ep 19 where nothing to be hyped about. And btw, this show has an incest moment. Rudy is the cousin of Eris but they engaged in sexual intercourse. Grown-up Rudy didn't want to take advantage of her, but in the end, he did.
Character: We all know that Rudy is a grown man that was reincarnated in another world inside a child's body. The first season's events were kinda childish but after the mana calamity, his character development was somewhat moved forward. But, heck... in every event in the second part, his character development took backward like wtf. He saved helpless people in many towns and somewhat became a hero, but his problems as a human being were never addressed. It seems that his act of kindness and heroic deeds are just a bad excuse for his character development. He's still a pervert af. I mean he is a grown man but in a child's body so he should have mature thinking. I don't know what his actual resolve is because he constantly repeating his mistakes and he didn't learn from them. Again, he is a 34-year-old grown-up man. The difference between his past life and the current one is Rudy wasn't a NEET anymore but with bad habits. As for the other characters, Eris became a waifu bait, Roxy is a lolicon, Ruijerd was like a walking statue, and Paul was a jack-ass character and he sucked.
Art/Sound:
The art isn't like the others said. The art is blurry, not eye-catching, and somewhat generic. It seemed that it is fine art for the story but 'amazing' like what they said. If the angle is far from the characters, they looked like ass. The production and the budget seemed low for this anime. The music is annoying. The OP and ED feel off and don't have a heart. It sounded like humming all over again and the background music is generic like you can hear in some other fantasy animes. Boring, no emotions, and no identity at all.
Overall:
This anime might be watchable for fans who love isekai. You can love it for the subjective elements, or hate it because of the incestuous element of the show, and the sexual assaults of the pathetic main character. This show can be beautiful if the author removes all of those flaws but instead, he wrote it as fanservice that the story can be inappropriate. If you remove all the objective flaws in the story, you may think this is a perfect isekai anime. It's your choice to decide whether you will watch it or not. But overall, this show is utterly overwhelming.
