We are a few months away from witnessing the return of the anime adaptation of “Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation“, with the second part of the second season. However, the most recent announcement already presented the first controversy, and it turns out that this return has changed the person in charge of the direction again: Ryousuke Shibuyawho has previously directed projects such as “Saikyou Onmyouji no Isekai Tenseiki” and “Runway de Waratte,” He is the one who is now in charge of the series.
These constant changes in the director’s chair obviously mean that each part of the anime adaptation has occurred at a different pace and mentality. This was precisely the topic of debate on a popular comment forum in Japan, as fans began to discuss why the series “seems to be losing the momentum with which it began in Winter-2021.
We must not forget the fact that Studio Bindthe company in charge of the animation of this project, was founded with the sole objective of adapting the entire franchise, however, since they also adapted “ONIMAI: I’m Now Your Sister!“, fans began to theorize that the goal of “just producing Mushoku Tensei” had been pushed aside. It didn’t help matters that the adaptation lost many key members of the production in the transition from the first to the second season.
- «I must say that the franchise does not have very attractive girls, to be honest».
- «There is no way a character like Rudeus will become popular.».
- «From the title it already leaves a bad impression».
- «I don’t know, but there are many people who find the presence of Rudeus’s father unpleasant.».
- «It doesn’t seem like the right series for an era of political correctness and weak men. Mushoku Tensei would have been more successful if it had been released a decade ago».
- «It’s like Sword Art Online, a shitty anime for kids».
- «Still more interesting than Sousou no Frieren».
- «It’s just not an interesting story.».
- «Wasn’t the second season too rubbish? The protagonist always seemed upset on screen».
- «The expression of the protagonist’s constant sexual desire is unpleasant, and bigamy seems horrible to me.».
- «Even from a male point of view, the protagonist is creepy. Not only the base audience, but the fan base itself are starting to realize this».
- «That they continue showing their past person is the problem, that guy is superfluous».
- «Series where girls surround a broken protagonist are becoming less popular».
- «The Mushoku Tensei fanbase is full of old perverts. Many must be between 30 and 40 years old.».
- «It’s crazy that an unemployed otaku lolicon is the protagonist of this story, or had you already forgotten?».
- «No matter how much it develops, every time they show the fat protagonist again, that development goes to hell.».
- «In the end, it all comes down to sex. It’s a totally stupid story».
- «When they stop producing animes where you have to wait months to see the second part, perhaps interest will be maintained more constantly».
- «I think the reason Mushoku Tensei didn’t become as popular as expected was because of the amount of suggestive content it includes, you can’t empathize with the protagonist. As the title indicates, it seems that only the unemployed will appreciate the story».
- «I like erotic content, but it seems like they can’t even do that well in Mushoku Tensei, it’s creepy to see».
- «After seeing this protagonist, I realized that Rito Yuuki from To LOVE-Ru is unbeatable to date».
- «He’s a reincarnated perverted otaku, so even if he’s reincarnated, he’ll still do horrible things.».
- «For some reason, the series is wildly popular in China. It seems that it is a story where the protagonist inspires the Chinese and the Americans. But for the Japanese, it seems to be too realistic».
- «The horrible problem with Mushoku Tensei is that none of the three protagonists have any charm. They are all a rehash of popular girls from other stories».
- «After the first season, the series lost much of its animation team. Obviously everything was going to go to shit».
- «Even among otakus, there are many who are still embarrassed to say that they like Mushoku Tensei».
- «At the moment I haven’t seen the second season after watching the first episode. Is there any element that makes it more interesting than the first season? The only episode I saw was the one where they are revealed in the cave».
- «Sousou no Frieren, Made in Abyss, Dungeon Meshi. Compared to these concepts, Mushoku Tensei unfortunately has nothing new to offer. It arrived at a time when the isekai genre was already in decline. They took too long to animate him».
Fountain: Yaraon!
