A manga adaptation by Yuka Fujikawa began serialization in the June 2014 issue of Monthly Comic Flapper. Seven Seas Entertainment licensed the tankōbon volumes of the manga for localization in North America. The company also has licensed the original light novels. On Syosetu's rankings, the web novel has made cumulative appearances as the most popular work on the website.[3] As of March 2022, over 5 million copies of the light novels have been sold worldwide.[4]

An anime television series adaptation by Studio Bind aired from January to December 2021. A second season has been announced. The anime adaptation received overwhelmingly positive responses from both critics and audiences and is considered one of the best anime of 2021.[5]

Plot
See also: List of Mushoku Tensei characters

An unnamed 34-year-old Japanese NEET is evicted from his home after failing to attend his parents' funeral. After some self-reflection, he concludes that his life is ultimately pointless. Still, he intercepts a speeding truck heading towards a group of teenagers in an attempt to do something noteworthy for the first time in his life. He pulls one of them out of harm's way just before he dies. He awakens in the body of a baby and discovers he has been reincarnated in a world of sword and sorcery. He resolves to succeed in his new life, abandoning his previous identity in place of Rudeus Greyrat. Rudeus develops a strong affinity for magic due to his aptitude and early training. He becomes a student of demon magician Roxy Migurdia during his youth, a friend of demihuman Sylphiette, and a teacher of magic to noble heiress Eris Boreas Greyrat. The story chronicles his new life's highlights as he attempts to overcome the failures of his previous one.

Production

Rifujin na Magonote commented that he created Rudeus aware of his controversial personality. He intended Rudeus' actions would be more meaningful in the process. He had no issue criticizing Rudeus at an early stage and left it to the audience to judge him. Magnote wanted the audience to pay attention to a specific side of his character and be able to relate to him.[6] Earlier, he said that I felt a big response in episodes 6 to 7 of the web version of the novels, but that was just when Roxy took Rudeus out. Thanks to her, Rudeus overcomes the trauma. Such a story gave a warm impression to his readers and made him think, "Let's grow in this direction."[7]

After publishing the first parts of his work, Rifujin wrote that he intended the series to last at least a hundred chapters.[8] Due to criticism towards his work, Rifujin considered ending the series prematurely but was inspired to continue when his work reached the first place on Syosetu's daily rankings.[8][9] Originally, the story arc where Rudeus' reunites with Aisha was supposed to be completely different from the published work.[10] The author intended to have Lilia die off-screen, and Aisha to be hiding under a different identity. However, he found Lilia's death anticlimactic and decided against it; thus, he had to rewrite the story arc to make sense of her survival and lack of contact. Rifujin stated the story arc might be bizarre due to the changes but expresses no regrets in his decision; he noted Lilia's survival made him reconsider Zenith's condition in the story.[10]

They later decided to "re-evaluate" their localization decisions.[15]

Rifujin intends to create a sequel to the web novel series based in the Six-Sided Universe. On January 15, 2021, the author stated that he plans to finish the Orc Eroica web novel first. He also suffers from health problems and plans to heal before starting the new work.[16]

Game

A smartphone game developed by Aiming Co., Ltd. titled Mushoku Tensei: Game ni Natte mo Honki Dasu (無職転生 ～ゲームになっても本気だす～, lit. "Mushoku Tensei - I'll Seriously Try Even If It's Made Into a Game") was released on March 27, 2021.[47][48]

Reception

Web and light novel

On Syosetu's rankings, the web novel made cumulative appearances as the most popular work on the website.[3] The light novels have appeared on Oricon's charts and have also ranked on T-site's novel popularity polls.[49][50][51][52] By August 2022, the light novels reached 3.5 million copies in circulation.[53]

However, the main character Rudeus has been criticized for being overtly perverted.[54] Real Sound was concerned about how the narrative portrays Rudeus' previous life as it appears to focus highly on retired school students and issues they had at school comparing it to the famous isekai Re:Zero − Starting Life in Another World. Nevertheless, Rudeus dedicates his new life to focusing on surpassing his flaws was noted to turn him into a more sympathetic main character.[55] Re:Zero − Starting Life in Another World novelist Tappei Nagatsuki said that one of the strongest points of Mushoku Tensei was the handling of Rudeus who is noted to suffer in a similar fashion to the main character from the visual novel Clannad.[56]

Anime

The anime adaptation received overwhelmingly positive responses from both critics and audiences and is considered one of the best anime of 2021.[5][57]

It also received numerous accolades from the anime, including three wins (Favorite Fantasy and Favorite Supporting Female Character for Ghislaine Dedoldia ) over seven nominations, including the New Anime of the Season at Winter 2021 (2nd Place for General Rankings) for Winter 2021 and two wins (Favorite Action or Adventure and Favorite Supporting Male Character for Ruijerd Superdia) over sixteen nominations including runner-up for Fall 2021 at the 8th Anime Trending Awards,[58] making it the most nominations at two seasons in a single year. Ruijerd Superdia is the second character from Mushoku Tensei to win a seasonal best-supporting character award after Ghislaine Dedoldia, who also won as best supporting female character for the previous season.[59][60]

Controversy

On February 8, 2021, before the premiere of the fifth episode, the series was suspended from the Chinese streaming network Bilibili due to controversial content described as "immorality" by some critics, most prominently a streamer named LexBurner, who called the anime "for bottom-feeders in the social hierarchy," which led viewers to leave low reviews for the anime on the streaming site. This also led to LexBurner, one of Bilibili's top streamers, banned from the site.[61][62] Later, author Rifujin na Magonote commented on LexBurner's actions as follows: "His words are only his personal opinion, and he is free to hold whatever views he likes. Although I am displeased at how he has insulted other viewers, anime is not just made for successful people, so I hope that those who can enjoy it will enjoy it." He further commented: "If that is the kind of online presence he is, that's just the way it is sometimes. Even in Japan, there are plenty of people like him, although they might not have his influence. As far as I am concerned, instead of engaging with him, I think it is more important to ignore him and grow your own communities. Thank you!"[62]

The series has also received user criticism in China for containing perceived misogynistic comments and content.[63]
