Isekai as a genre has grown into this unholy behemoth, and almost all of it has been awful, but Mushoku Tensei was a truly refreshing exception. Gosh, where do I even begin? I’m so glad Mushoku Tensei came out between now and the previous season of Shield Hero, because it serves as a nice and easy example to reference when explaining why this very similar anime is, in comparison, complete shit. Reason 1: How the fuck are we not bored of this yet? it is worth anyone’s time for a list of reasons both obvious and egregious. However, immediately after this, the series devolved into the most generic isekai harem you’ve ever seen, and nothing about The first four episodes of season one are decent, and while the production issues which would later come to plague the series were already rearing their ugly heads even back then-bad CG, bits of clunky animation, and so on-the actual story they told, at least as far as isekai is concerned, was fairly compelling, and the firestorm of internet controversy they ignited was thoroughly hilarious. This show is a piece of trash, and I’m shocked I or anyone else ever gave it the time of day.
