I don't really have a top 10 but more like a top 6 and ironically are all emotional character to character scenes: 6 - Paul's death anime cliches aside, this was one of the best death scenes of sacrificing one's self to save another and MT handled it well but not because the father figure died, but because how his sacrifice impacted those he left behind to each of the Greyrat siblings, to Lilia, to his old party and to even the Fittoa search group - his death left behind this wake that held meaning not to just the MC in a way - Paul's death created alot of interactions that brought everyone closer together 5 - Rudeus finally realizing Fitz's identity the reader basically knew that Sylphy would be the one to break the MC out of the slump Eris left him in... but how this was realized was done much better than expected having Rudeus humbled over his infirmity for a couple volumes was a contrast to his more confident self in the first couple arcs but that scene in the rain was him finally seeing that light at the end of the tunnel and where we the reader finally breathed out a sigh of relief 4 - Norn finally opening up to her big brother much for the same reasons you stated - it was a very human moment of a person bringing themselves back from a depressed state of mind what made the moment even more meaningful was Rudeus could relate to Norn's circumstances, since he himself was a former shut-in 3 - the Princess and the Mage imo - Ariel and Sylphy easily had the best buddy relationship in the MT series so it is hard to pick a single scene from it, but their talk at the end of the Royal Arc is possibly tops among farewell sequences what makes it even more heartfelt is knowing by this point that their Fates were never meant to cross, which added another layer to the dynamic to their story 2 - Eris leaving Rudeus to me this was THE iconic scene that separated MT from the typical isekai genre also this scene really highlighted probably the single best character arc in the MT series gone was the bratty kid we were introduced to, and we the reader saw her leave the MC as an empowered figure wanting to do right by the boy she loved 1 - Rudeus's epilogue MT has one of the most satisfying conclusions to any story I ever read, both in western lit and foreign LN his death and final meeting with Hitogami hit on so many emotional levels since it was the culmination the MC's childhood to adulthood just seeing him atleast die with dignity knowing he lived a life fulfilled was possibly the best story within all the stories in this series
I just finished the web novel yesterday and am craving for more mushoku tensei, this surely helped satisfy that at least a little bit, great video dude
I really wish volume 24 was on this list Spoiler: The part when he talks with hitogami as an adult and leaves the world with no regrets was a really good scene
My all time favorite moment is when Rudeus gets imprisoned by the beastmen: Rudeus and his friends rescue a bunch of kidnapped beast race kids, their tribe arrives and they mistake him for a kidnapper and capture him, they thew throw him into prison... naked, Rudeus could have easily escaped but knows everything will be resolved once his friends arrive with the children so he stays in prison... naked A couple days go by and his friends are nowhere to be seen, so he escapes in secret but realizes he is in the middle of a gigantic forests and has no idea where to go, *so he goes back to prison* and keeps waiting, after a whole week his friends arrive, at this point Rudeus was so bored he killed time hitting on the female guard and bullying the other prisoner who arrived later on It turned out there were more kidnappers, a whole secret operation of them, when the friends arrived to the tribe with the children they all went to hunt the kidnappers, and spend a whole week on it, there was a ship fight and all that stuff, they were so worked up they simply... forgot about their friend in prison Rudeus was the brain of the team because his two friends were muscleheads, and the beastmen race where muscleheads as a whole, i liked it because silly as it may be it was a great example of how the other characters have their own lives and it was perfectly in line with their personalities
There isnt a sequel on how she beats hitogami, but theres like a slice of life story of her and other sons/daughter of rudy. Its called dasoku hen in jp, not sure if theres translation tho
Oldeus ain't the second strongest at all. And mushoku tensei isn't a story about becoming the strongest, nor could a magician become the strongest, even with the magic armors, in fact he is 7 on the ranking but they were 5 against alek.
I don't really have a top 10 but more like a top 6 and ironically are all emotional character to character scenes:
6 - Paul's death
anime cliches aside, this was one of the best death scenes of sacrificing one's self to save another and MT handled it well
but not because the father figure died, but because how his sacrifice impacted those he left behind
to each of the Greyrat siblings, to Lilia, to his old party and to even the Fittoa search group - his death left behind this wake that held meaning not to just the MC
in a way - Paul's death created alot of interactions that brought everyone closer together
5 - Rudeus finally realizing Fitz's identity
the reader basically knew that Sylphy would be the one to break the MC out of the slump Eris left him in... but how this was realized was done much better than expected
having Rudeus humbled over his infirmity for a couple volumes was a contrast to his more confident self in the first couple arcs
but that scene in the rain was him finally seeing that light at the end of the tunnel and where we the reader finally breathed out a sigh of relief
4 - Norn finally opening up to her big brother
much for the same reasons you stated - it was a very human moment of a person bringing themselves back from a depressed state of mind
what made the moment even more meaningful was Rudeus could relate to Norn's circumstances, since he himself was a former shut-in
3 - the Princess and the Mage
imo - Ariel and Sylphy easily had the best buddy relationship in the MT series
so it is hard to pick a single scene from it, but their talk at the end of the Royal Arc is possibly tops among farewell sequences
what makes it even more heartfelt is knowing by this point that their Fates were never meant to cross, which added another layer to the dynamic to their story
2 - Eris leaving Rudeus
to me this was THE iconic scene that separated MT from the typical isekai genre
also this scene really highlighted probably the single best character arc in the MT series
gone was the bratty kid we were introduced to, and we the reader saw her leave the MC as an empowered figure wanting to do right by the boy she loved
1 - Rudeus's epilogue
MT has one of the most satisfying conclusions to any story I ever read, both in western lit and foreign LN
his death and final meeting with Hitogami hit on so many emotional levels since it was the culmination the MC's childhood to adulthood
just seeing him atleast die with dignity knowing he lived a life fulfilled was possibly the best story within all the stories in this series
I just finished the web novel yesterday and am craving for more mushoku tensei, this surely helped satisfy that at least a little bit, great video dude
Thanks. idk if theres translation, but there's quite a lot of after story and stories about different character in that world.
Thanks for making this video. This novel is really something close to my heart
Me too!
I really wish volume 24 was on this list
Spoiler:
The part when he talks with hitogami as an adult and leaves the world with no regrets was a really good scene
Yes, that was a very touching scene.
My all time favorite moment is when Rudeus gets imprisoned by the beastmen:
Rudeus and his friends rescue a bunch of kidnapped beast race kids, their tribe arrives and they mistake him for a kidnapper and capture him, they thew throw him into prison... naked, Rudeus could have easily escaped but knows everything will be resolved once his friends arrive with the children so he stays in prison... naked
A couple days go by and his friends are nowhere to be seen, so he escapes in secret but realizes he is in the middle of a gigantic forests and has no idea where to go, *so he goes back to prison* and keeps waiting, after a whole week his friends arrive, at this point Rudeus was so bored he killed time hitting on the female guard and bullying the other prisoner who arrived later on
It turned out there were more kidnappers, a whole secret operation of them, when the friends arrived to the tribe with the children they all went to hunt the kidnappers, and spend a whole week on it, there was a ship fight and all that stuff, they were so worked up they simply... forgot about their friend in prison
Rudeus was the brain of the team because his two friends were muscleheads, and the beastmen race where muscleheads as a whole, i liked it because silly as it may be it was a great example of how the other characters have their own lives and it was perfectly in line with their personalities
🔥☄️❤️I agree, this shows my respect, best piece of writing ever!❤️☄️🔥
Ikr!
Kenny's Room hey the daughter is the hero right, is there a story about her like a sequel?
There isnt a sequel on how she beats hitogami, but theres like a slice of life story of her and other sons/daughter of rudy. Its called dasoku hen in jp, not sure if theres translation tho
Thanks, that’s all the information i need
Oh by the way, every time I read the fight between Paul and Rudi, that scene always makes me cry. #Paul=Respect
Is there a place I can buy a English version of the light novel plz I need to know
Sorry, im japanese and only have the japanese version so i dont know...

Thanks
2:01 well I would say 3/4 of human
I hate at the end he only became 7th strongest haha
while the future rudy is the strongest second to dragon god hahaha
Oldeus ain't the second strongest at all. And mushoku tensei isn't a story about becoming the strongest, nor could a magician become the strongest, even with the magic armors, in fact he is 7 on the ranking but they were 5 against alek.
