"aNd ThE muSic mAkES tHe nIce NoisE" - the most Connor line I've ever heard.

Gigguk really missed the chance of saying, "Rudy finally realised, people die when they're killed."

One un-noted part of the anime that I like a lot is the opening. It’s not a premade set of visuals that plays at the beginning of the weekly watch; the music is made to be listened to with beautiful scenery, and they do that amazingly every episode, with a scenery that fits the episode so well, and transitions into the episode so well instead of having a scene before the intro to do the job.

"I'll destroy this town myself if it comes down to it" - Rudeus This one dialogue made me excited for the anime

"The music makes the nice noise" Why do I feel like this is a subtle shade thrown at Connor lmao

Eris: *Slaps Rudy* Rudy: *Slaps Eris back* Kazuma: Finally, a worthy opponent! Our battle will be legendary!

"you can make a religion out of this" was the best line

I'm gonna be honest, I want gigguk to cover the second season separately. Because HOLY SHIT it's good.

In Gigguk’s words “His dad is a harem protagonist trying to raise a family” It doesn’t work so well

"ThE MuSiC MaKeS a NiCe NoIsE" sounds like Connor

"Not just another adventure, in another time in another world, but maybe just another chance at life" and when the freaking op kicks in, i got goosebumps in my skin

Safe to say 2 yrs later this show still slaps.

i love how this show DOESNT have an op it just plays music and shows a bunch of cool ass scenery

I say with complete confidence, I will never tire of you talkin bout isekai

Just finished watching season 1 and no I haven’t read the light novel or web novel yet, but I plan to. One thing I find interesting about the premise and Rudeus’ character is that it DOES show the good people in his life. His original parents didn’t hate him or belittle him or feed his insecurities. It’s the exact opposite! They truly loved him and if anything coddled him because they knew how much he suffered. They constantly tried to get him out of his room and stop being a shut-in because they knew it wasn’t good for him, but they never for instance bust down the door, destroyed all his games and books and said “enough is enough fatass go outside and stop being a shut-in😄”! They realized how traumatizing his life outside was for him and how he’d likely be tormented again if he did go back out into the real world. Back to school. They tried to get the school to do something about the bullies multiple times but we can imagine that was all for naught. Their ability to protect their son from that was gone. They did all they could on their end. Anything else would have to be a result of his actions and he was too afraid to do that. Why run from safety and assured comfort to the unknown and possibly dangerous. So he stayed. But that didn’t mean there still wasn’t ANY good in his world. He just pushed it away. And that’s the best part of his isekai past life. He realizes he fucked up the good parts of his life. His siblings beat him up after he didn’t show up to their parent’s funeral when all he did was take advantage of his parent’s love and empathy to remain a shut-in. But his siblings didn’t always hate him. I can only speak for the anime but in that it shows that his little sister wanted him to come down and have dinner with them. She truly missed her older brother and felt sorry for what he’d been through. Even hearing his brothers talk they seemed to have already begun to give up on him by that point but it sounds nothing like the seemingly total hatred of him they show the night they beat him up, trash his room, and throw him onto the street the night he dies. When I saw that scene I wasn’t really paying attention and literally thought they were just some debt collector goons or something with how brutal they were treating him😆. But they were his family and like his parents they did truly love him at one time. But unlike his parents that love eventually faded over the years as he pushed them away more and more out of fear of his trauma and retreating to the easy, comfortable, yet empty and lonely life of a shut-in. Rudeus also had a good friend! Even after the bullying and becoming a shut-in. But he treated him like trash and pushed him away because of his trauma. He had a female childhood friend who he may have even had a chance at romance with but never pursued it because of his self esteem issues. Rudeus learns from all of that and isn’t just trying to escape his old world. Some world where everyone and everything was shitty or treated him like shit. Where he had no friends or supportive family. He HAD those things despite the bad. Despite all the trauma and abuse from the the majority of people in his world, he still had a fantastic small community of people who did love and care about him that he pushed away and treated like trash. He took the good people in his life for granted and refused to better himself to enjoy the good and life with those people. It’s his fault he wasted away in his room instead of being brave and bettering himself. He recognized that he’d been isekaied and immediately got to work making the absolute most of his second chance! When he’s not even supposed to be old enough to read yet he was studying and then training. He didn’t get a special buff and he was certainly no prodigy like everyone in that world came to believe. His only buff is that he was born with the experience of a life wasted and now had the motivation of a man plagued with that and gifted a second chance. He’s far from perfect. He’s still creepy and weird but he does value others and wants to protect those who care about him this time. I like this isekai BECAUSE of his past life. Because he not only wants to be happy himself but also be better to those around him so they can be happy as well. All the while never feeling like a one dimensional pure good guy protagonist. He has some pretty messed up qualities and still suffers from the trauma of his past life (yes I’ve heard about the ED problem coming up😄). But that’s my point. He doesn’t forget his past life. He uses it to fuel himself to make the most of every single moment of his life as well as cherish every ally, family member, and friend he meets along the way. Now all he’s thinking about is his next death and making it so that the next time he does die he’ll actually feel good about what he accomplished and who’s around him at the end.

Studio Bind did a really good adaptation. Believe me the 26 volumes of the Light Novel, is packed af. They were able to include everything it needed but theres still a lot more details that cant be adapted so I suggest reading it. The first part of S1 may be feel like an absolutely broken slow cooker cause how slow it is but that prologue of prologues is essential to show because that is literally all the foundation which upon the story of growth will take place. Showing it all gained me a lot of respect for the studio since they also understood the core of the story.

"This show made me fall back in love with isekai" Okay Gigguk...like you ever left.

Gintoki's voice actor makes this 10000% better

something i never seen ppl comment on is the opening been always different and integrating and been story telling, the best opening ever in all animes ever.

If they want to tell the full story I think we're looking at 5 to 8 seasons and maybe a spin-off movie or anime for Roxys back story as it has a manga of its own

gigguk: just finished the script turning point one: i gonna end this mans entire career

i love how he just goes "and there's eris, she's kind of a little shithead"

I knew Mushoku Tensei was going to be good since the first couple episodes, but HOLY SHIT did it blow my expectations over the fuckin MOON It's not like I'm getting a high off of watching it for the first time, I started watching when the first episode came out and I'm _still_ currently amazed

Whats weird is that years ago. Mushoku Tensei was the first isekai Manga I ever picked up and was like, hey this looks good. This was before isekai flooded the anime market. But I fell in love with it and with isekai after that. The only other anime to hit the same chords was Youjo Senki.

gigguk is talking about isekai's again. it must be a day that ends in Y

"No matter how old you are, it's never too late for a coming of age story." That one hit different.

I started watching this show because you gave it a brief shout out on a newer trash taste episode and I can't thank you enough I've really really enjoyed it.

I'm so happy that Rezero and Jobless reincarnation adaptation was so loyal in following in their Light Novel

Can confirm. Its a great anime. Side note: You can never talk about too much isekai.

So no one is gonna mention how seemless the opening and ending in this anime are, that u don't even notice ur watching an opening or ending and never skip it

Just finished the first season/part all thanks to you gigguk, the story, the animation, the music, voice acting it's soo good,

I came here after episode 22, a lot of things is happening right now and I have totally fallen in love with this series.

I mean, at this point we've popularized Truck-kun so much that I'm surprised we don't have a "I got Burned by a Dragon and got Reincarnated as a Truck who now has to Collect Souls so I can Return to my Own World" (Shortened to: "Soulcollector Truck-kun) Anime :/

I think honestly one of the most impressive parts of this show is the fact that the majority if the later episodes are just straight up in a fantasy language.

1:22 You can't hide the Interspecies Reviewers OST from us! *WE KNOW!*

This video is the reason I started Mushoku Tensei And after just watching EP22, it hits so much differently, what a journey

"You can make a religion out of this" I wonder how many people got this reference. 10\10

"It's never too late to better yourself" I literally thought it was gonna devolve into another skillshare ad

This anime is pretty much my hands down favorite anime and light novel. I've watched season one and read the LN up till Volume 19, and god damn, i love every minute of it. It just stands out from most other isekai in every single way and i so enjoyable to read and watch. All the characters feel real as well as the world itself due to how things are explained and just the way that the story plays out is so well done imo. If you look past how much of a perv he is in the beggining and look at the entire story as a whole as he develops and changes over time due to certain circumstances, it's just done so well and is so fucking good. I can't wait for season 2 to release, thankfully it starts airing fairly soon now. If people thought that season one was pretty good, then season 2 and beyond might as well be considered a masterpiece because it gets much better right from the beginning with LN volume 7 and is gonna end oin some strong points as well (i believe it was volume 12 but according to the trailer, the part i'm talking about will be in season 2 meaning 6 LN's per sesason over 24 episodes). So yeah, i love this series, and really can't wait for it to be fully adapted but that probably won't happen until close to 2028 or so if they go at the current pace and release frames for the seasons. Not to mention the possibility for a sequel in about 10 years or so according to the author. Anyway, in case anyone reading this can't tell, i fucking love Mushoku Tensei lol it just does everything right imo

R.I.P the legendary swordsman with a dagger that can't even cut dried meat.

When he said “I bet he moderates a Discord server”, I felt that.

"I bet he even moderates a Discord server." And I took that personally.

I really hope the studio follows through to the end of the entire story seeing the meticulous attention to detail that will only make sense much much further down in the plot. Having read the original novel mostly to the end, the anime depicts details that no one (who has not read ahead) will notice it was there until you see to those moments. Those moments will definitely not be covered in the two planned seasons. It tells me that the production team knows the ins and outs of the whole plot line and is trying to depict the entire novel rather than an anime meant as a quick goods and novel selling Ad. People who is OK knowing ahead in the plot should consider reading the novel or the manga and then going back to the anime, because the small details put in to the production really shine.

Dammm...... bro . I watched like 10 yours videos and every single of of them was perfect. None of them is worse than other . You are just incredible . Everyting is just amazing starting with your voice , the way you are trying to convince us , and ending on your concept. Every time i watch your video i feel like you are taking me on journey by your mind . It feels like your are creating special place where you can show your thoughts . In that journey you always show new point of view . Sometimes your thoughts are soo deep that I feel like you are reading author's mind or even beyond.... On top of that your videos are always high qualitty . I dont know what to ask more , keep it up! I hope you wil get bigger on YT. ( Sorry for my bad english )

Gigguk: “Digimon is an isekai” Damn, you right.

Gigguk has that uncanny ability to transition from the meme to the inspirational at the end of every video.

oh my god, from the art style to the story... I have not been so entranced by an isekai anime before. Its beautiful. I love how the story focuses on the childhood part of his life and gives you his thoughts from his adult worldview. Plus the art.. The quality of it reminds me of those old disney movies for some reason. I only wish there was more... I hope it gets more seasons.

rewatched this video like 6 times and still get goosebumps multiple times

"and the music makes the nice noise" Me: conner is that you?

"You could make a religion out of these panties" So you did read the Light Novel then

season 2 is gonna be a banger season 3 is gonna blow everyone's mind

This series is just getting started. In theory it should be 100 ep+

Yeah... Instead of "reincarnated into another world", maybe "having a second chance in life" would sums up the show quiet nice.

"That Time I Got Reincarnated As A Protagonist." Sometimes, I wonder what real life really is? 😔

Just binge watched this show in 1 day...All I can say is that this is one of the best anime I've seen. I truely hope Studio Bind keeps it up. I could see this revolutionizing story telling for anime. Its done so well. Can't wait for season 3 :)

i like the character improvement of rudeus,erris,and the superdia hands down on it they improve so much and the plot twist of the story is really great and the kami in there is really mystery plus the way story goes is great and as of now i really like what happened to the anime

Mushoku Tensei just said That The meaning of Isekai is to Give a person a second chance of living a life they wanted to live

One thing I noticed about this anime is its intro's, it doesn't just cut to a opening video it just shows the world and its characters going through day to day life as it plays the music. Its such a lovely detail that keep you hooked while adding the world building and making use of the whole 20~ minutes, and honestly I like not having to skip intros after I've watched them a few times because everyone opening is something new and different to look at!

It's now half way through the summer season 2021 and this video has reminded me why I loved watching this show so much back in winter and if I need another reminder before season 2 begins then I know where to come back to

3:30 my ear was blocked around here, so I had static while he was explaining the proper way to get hit by a truck I'm gonna assume its my automatic swear filter

In an age of homogenized soulless cash grabs it is heartwarming to see a product made with care and passion. The artwork, the music, the detail put into the adaptation, this isn't just a product to the creators this was something they obviously were passionate about. As a fan this is something I applaud and hope to see more of.

"You can make a religion out of this" I laughed so hard that my parents got scared

6:43 “First layer” from made in abyss I love it

I'm currently reading through the LN. I'm at volume 12 at the moment and I've gotta say, it gets even better.

It's not every day Gigguk covers an isekai, but when he does, it's worth watching.

Fact: The author said that the studio created 3 fictional languages, them being demon God, battle God and beast God, and every VA beside Rudy's VA mastered them, that's why rudeus seems to struggle speaking demon God when he need it. And this make sense because he just learned the language in 2 years and has never spoken with anyone who speaks demon God before the demon continent arc. And this means that they are planning a season 2 already because of the battle God language, that would just be used in a season 2. They are really putting effort in the immersion in mushoku tensei's world

12:01 the goosebumps...

Great description, explanation and review bro. Glad to hear great positive points from you. Great video. I'm happy that you love the series too🙏🙏🙏 It's the best!!!!!!

Can we just take the time to talk about how great Garnt is at narrating? He's like the Morgan Freeman of isekai I swear. Never tire of Garnt talking about anything with his amazing sense of humor

"can we just talk about how they told an 8 year old kid to use protection"

i am just happy for you making this video, my favorite anime of all time, i've watched the anime, read the manga and ranobe and i am fricking in awe how much of a masterpiece mushoku tensei is

I love this anime, i can safely say it is definitely my top 1 fav anime as of this moment and even more i love this video gigguk made, ive watched this atleast a dozen times since it was released to refresh my memories of just how good this series is (yes i've ofc already read the LN)

"I bet he even moderated a discord server" I died from laugh

this series has so much potential and I really hope they don't chuck it away like the promised neverland

Finally watching this anime 2 years later and remembered your video. So, thank you. Man it's been 2 years

this video satisfied my heart . what else would i want but a whole video appreciating mushoku tensei

titles then: "Naruto" titles now: "the time I got railed by my dead grandma"

Genie: what is your wish Me: go to Japan and get hit by a truck

just watched season one, waiting for season 2 and y agree, also the show OP is never skip, its not a repeat its always something that moves the story forward or just great art.

I watched this anime about 2 or 3 weeks ago. Truly was a masterclass of an anime. The creators really have outdone themselves. I can't wait for season 2 this summer although I may wait so I can Bing watch it entirely in a few sittings and also have the English translation bc I'm not a fan of reading when I'm trying to pay attention to the beautiful details of this wonderful show

"and the music makes nice noise" Connor somewhere in Japan: Why do I get a feeling like someone is talking about me?

If this anime was only featuring the Greyrats, it could have even surpassed Redo Of Healer.

I came here after watching the series and it's really worth the time. I love your reviews so much that I can't describe. I was so much invested in this video and 11:49 these lines and the following music gave me goosebumps. Really love ur vids. They deserve more attention.

This light novel was amazing. I remember this being announced as a anime. I still haven't watch it but I'm glad that the anime still kept the core message of the book

"people die, people kill, so naturally, people die when they are killed"

I wish he talked about how well Bind are handling openings. I don’t have anything against the classic show opening but man, i swear jobless reincarnation’s op is impossible to skip. When the opening starts I have not wanted to skip it once. It never takes away from the show, but only adds worldbuilding and small details that otherwise, the show just wouldnt normally have time to waste on. The chanting is such a nice touch and just adds to the message of how despite anything that might happen in the epic we are watching the world will still be beautiful and keep moving, without fail. I’m also a huge fan of how re:zero s2 has been handling openings and endings, not needing to show them unless it has significant impact on the viewer, but i think jobless reincarnation is a step ahead of re:zero’s step ahead. And don’t get me wrong, some of my favorite music ever has come from those classic openings, and i still regularly listen to many, but whenever i would watch a show I would watch the openings once and then always skip them after (there are some extra special op’s and ed’s that are extremely difficult to close as well) even if the music or animation was done extremely well. Man, i really hope Garnt gets inspired to make a video on openings and how impactful they can be.

One of the things that instantly made me hook in this anime was the opening for other animes opening is just a thing about what you can expect or a preview of the characters but mushoku tensei saw opening as a opportunity to show of their amazing talent with the background and also showing a summary of the story like that episode where we got to see what happened to paul they could just make a episode of it but that would be a waste of time so they just put the whole thing in the opening which was fascinating i had never seen such a thing in anime also the music was so good it was the only anime that i actually waited for the opening to pop up we all have been there when the anime is getting intense but then the opening pops up it can be annoying but nobody can say the same thing about mushoku tensei i understand that some people dislike this anime because of fan service but even if you do you gotta atleast respect the amount of work that was put in to this anime it was a hard decision but rn it's my favourite anime non other famous anime could bring this much emotions even tho some of them are really long

One of my favorite anime I've watched in a while. would love to see a update on how you feel about the most recent episodes. The character development was amazing

Gigguk sold me on this anime when he said this single sentence, "It knows when to show, it knows when to tell and it knows when to do a little bit of both." This shit seems like it's hard to come by these days.

“and then theres redo of healer...a masterpiece” - gigguk

Just saw the trailer for cour 2 and I'm insanely hyped by how gorgeous the animation looks!

1:56 „you could make a religion out of this.“ season two 2023:

Re:Zero Fans: Re:Zero is the Best isekai! Mushoku Tensei Fans : No Mushoku Tensei is better! Mushoku Tensei Author to Re:Zero Author: I love your work, King. Re:Zero Author to Mushoku Tensei Author: You too, King. Be chads, be like the authors.

"Maybe this was what isekai was always meant to be; not just another adventure in another time in another world, but another chance at life." Man that resonates hard

i can't get over how good your videos are dude keep up the great work!!

Mushoku Tensei's "Turning Point" episodes are unrivaled masterpieces.

Scenes like how Rudy reacts to a dead body instantly make me more immersed in the story

I'm just happy I can finally be one the mysterious lightnovel readers who appear when something gets an anime adaptation

Oh god... I've read ahead, to the end pretty much, and we will hear from Gigguk again if this anime can keep being produced... And that will be glorious. That would be a major piece of the decade, of several decades even.

I know I'm coming to this video late but can I say GOD DAMN is the theme for this show a classical BANGER. With the animation flowing into the show instead of the typical OP. AHHHHHH ITS SO GOOOOD
