You need to understand that chantless magic is not unique to the world rudues didnt "discover" it it was there for a while its just super rare to the point that in that world 10,000 known years history the most amount of people known for it can be counted on 1 hand. Rudues isnt currently the only one who can use it either as he taught sylphy it and the dragon god guy in season 1 can do it too infact he's more proficient at it than rudues.
I just finished watching it and it was amazing i dont usually read the manga/ light novel for unfinished anime but i make a few exceptions like this and solo leveling Probably the 2nd beat isekai style ive seen just behind its very similar series tbate
Mushoku tensei is my favorite piece of fiction and I'd encourage you to give season 3 a watch when it airs. Most people consider it to be the part where the story peaks. The first few episodes will be about Roxy settling in to the family, so maybe seeing that dynamic will change your view of their polygamous relation. If not, the story will return to action soon enough. When you say, I heard it gets worse, I assume that to be about the fact he gets a third wife. I really don't think it's in any way worse than Roxy becoming part of the family, other than the fact that 3>2. The ecchi stuff never disappears from the story, but now that Rudy has wives to direct his lust towards his actions are at least more acceptable.
I totally see what you're saying. I don't think there'll be anything the series could do to make me change my mind on the polygamy, it's one of the reasons I don't watch harem anime either
@@nicwithnok Fair enough, I think it has a lot of issues conceptually myself and is much harder work than a monogamous relationship. But it doesn't bother me in the story.
I watched the first eleven episodes of mushoko tensei and just couldn't stand it because rudeus is just a plain creep. I could cope, I think, with characters having multiple love interests as I'm not religious but I can't stand watching a character who is forty years old mentally and seems to spend most of his new reincarnated life obsessing over young girls. I must watch more of the show at some point because every video I see online about mushoko tensei recommends it, but as a main character, Rudeus is the most detestable that I have ever seen.
I really like this series and pervy jokes don't bother me. But the end of 2nd season was uncomfortable to watch. I know that marriage in mushoku tensei world is more like agreement between two sides but still. I don't like the idea that Roxy love Rudeus because she is more like mentor figure and she know him since he was kid. And i don't like the fact that anime compare Rudeus x Roxy and Paul x Lily situations and try to tell this is the same. I won't be satisfied until Sylphie find second husband XD
The sexual content is the reason i've stopped watching 3 episodes in. It's just something that when there is so much of it for no reason, it makes me lose interest
i agree with most of the pros and cons buy the pervy stuff fan service part of it is not a con at all, many animes do that because it is a sense of realism in an anime so that the people watching would somehow relate to the mc. in my opinion in the only bad thing that mushoku tensei did as an anime is make rudeus a mid character rather than the main character of the series, he didn't train to be the strongest and explored the peek of his abilities he didn't use wind magic to fly and be op at dodging, he could've had much more spells to showcase instead of these repetitive rock bullets. it started as the best isekai anime and ended as one of the biggest flop in isekai anime history.
Rudy's motivation was never to reach the pinnacle of magic or become the strongest person alive. Sure it would have been fun to see Rudy experiment with his magic a bit more, but stone cannon + quagmire tends to get the job done, so why fix something that ain't broke. Also, we've not even reached the halfway point of the story yet, there is room for Rudy to improve his magic and fighting skills. Even though that's not really the point of the story.
@@lucasvanwijngaarden670 "why fix something that ain't broken" yeah he lost an arm in the future instead of working on his healing magic and improving his water magic, rudeus was supposed to be op and yet he became nothing more than a strong mage rather than being the strongest. maybe you haven't seem the ending so i suggest you read it.
@@mrytber8899 I've read the story. That's why I say gaining strength has never been his goal. It's only a means to an end. Yes he lost a hand against the Hydra, but no magic would have helped him against that thing. Yes he lost more limbs, but only ever in fights with some of the strongest people in the world. Rudy's weakness has always been defence. And again, no magic is gonna fix that issue. Also, doesn't he become the strongest living mage at the end of the story?
@@lucasvanwijngaarden670 yes be became the strongest living mage at the time of his death but not the strongest in being, he could never defeat orsted and the whole story revolves around orsted not rudy, in short rudy us just a side character who had the potential to be the strongest and didn't. that's why it's a flop and a let down. why even have those things be so obvious in the beginning of the series and be that disappointing.
@@mrytber8899 Humans are inherintly weaker than dragon and demonfolk. Rudy's OP ability, his ridiculous mana pool, is literally one aspect of a stronger person's total ability. But again, Rudy doesn't care to become the strongest in the world and this is the story of Rudy's life, not the story of Orsted and Hitogami's fight. If that's what you expected from the story you seem to have misunderstood it.
Honestly, i think people glaze this way too much, tensei is literally an adverage isekai anime with a few extra steps and a little effort put in. Breath of fresh air for sure, but...... it was released like... decade after it should have been. Isekai genre has been done to death and is so watered down that even with its good points, it doesn't stand out enough imo I will say i havent read it in depth to argue much about the power scaling but he is still another op mc like the rest of isekai anime, that guy who put a hole in his chest if i remember correctly was op as hell. Def better balance, but rudeus is still busted compared to most around him. I still kinda find it gooofy that the author put all this work into rudeus and having him get stronger, and hes like "yea this story is a prequel, the real story starts with his daughter, whos the real mc"
The author never said that. That whole thing is something the fanbase made up. Mushoku Tensei is story of Rudues Greyrat and it's self contained. His story is over.
@@garjura4659 you sure? Cause I heard that from like a dozen different creators. Much be some pretty crazy fannon. IL double-checked, but I could be wrong.
@@Hyperiumon there is definitely going to be another story based on mushoku tensei's world. But calling mushoku tensei a prologue to the real story is a stretch. Mushoku Tensei's real story is in mushoku tensei. It is not in some potential future spin off. People that say it never really understood what mushoku tensei is really about. Even the author dislikes the word sequel for the story that he is potentially going to write in future.
I'm conflicted for the same reasons, if they majorly toned down the perviness and sexual stuff I could easily recommend this series to people but as it is I just can't, and I'm not even sure I'm going to keep watching it (I haven't finished season 2 yet)
Just take it as it's meant to be taken a joke I found it funny but odd but when I realised that's just apart of it I enjoyed the light hearted spin it brings on things
🤔 self insert huh? So you are absolutely certain that everything that happened in the series is strickly based off of every thing They want to experience themselves?

Great video, thank you 👍
Glad you enjoyed it! 🙌🏽
Christian “mythology”? It’s a fact, not fiction
Great video tho
I looked for the comment so true not mythology.👍

Yeah, from what I’ve heard/seen it only gets worse going forward…
Pervy stuff? I agree to some extent, but what you're implying is grossly exaggerated.
@nicwithnok I read the LN to the end, so I'm not going to spoil, but I'm curious what you heard about it being "worse"?
Just take it as it's meant to be taken a joke I found it funny but odd but when I realised that's just apart of it I enjoyed the light hearted spin it brings on things
This manga is a self insert of the author, same with rent a girlfriend. Both losers
🤔 self insert huh? So you are absolutely certain that everything that happened in the series is strickly based off of every thing They want to experience themselves?
