EP. REVIEW: Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation 2nd Part

After seeing Sauros' dead i want to read the WN but at the same time i don't want to

:v

Glad to see that Kim was both able and willing to take over on this one. I also completely agree with and support her opening stance. That Rudeus's bad behavior is continuing to some degree should be acknowledged, but there is so much else to talk about in this series that there's no need to continually dwell on it anymore.

If it keeps continually happening then yea there is reason to continually dwell on it. Otherwise you're ignoring a very blatant aspect of the show. Tired and constantly talked about as it may be.

Nah i strongly disagree. Complaining about Rudy when you're 14 episodes into a show (that has practically completed source material) is excessive. Everyone knows what this is. Complaining about it is like complaining about the fan service in Strike Witches or about Highschool D X D showing boobs. It might as well be part of MTs genre at this point. At best they should just throw a trigger warning at the top of the review and keep it moving.

I definitely can't agree with this. If you made it this far into the show then you know what kind of character Rudy is. There's no reason to keep beating the dead horse.

Disagree all you want, doesn't hurt my feelings. It shouldn't matter if "we know who he is by now" or if people know "what this is". If the antics continue to take away from other elements of the plot, and it keeps being a situation of 1 step forward, 2 steps back then yea, it deserves to be mentioned in the review. It's not beating a dead horse if they problem keeps happening, which is the antics take away from the rest of the plot and character development. It would be beating a dead horse if the antics did NOT do that, but they kept getting mentioned. If it keeps happening, it's a viable topic to discuss just like anything else in a show if it keeps coming up.

We'll just wait and see how the reviews go.

The comparison to Strike Witches or DxD are particularly faulty. For one both of those shows were not trying to be more then what they were. They were not going for real character development or a plot with more depth. Mushoku Tensei is trying to do that. That's why the antics stick out more because it gives a big tonal whiplash and stands out more compared to the rest of the story.

I feel so bad for Eris. Especially when we don't know what happened to her parents.
