This year Mushoku Tensei has become my favourite anime of all time. It doesn't have groundbreaking plot of Aot and neither the uniqueness of Ranking of kings or Odd Taxi; but Mushoku Tensei has something special which most animes doesn't have and that is "Immersion". Most of the good animes feels like a good story to me,but mushoku tensei felt real

Yeah... Blue Period def is one of my favorite mangas in recent years. I heard something interesting from a pretty famous illustrator on their stream. He goes by Lack and did many designs for FGO. He was asked on stream if he read or plan to read Blue Period and the answer was very interesting... He remarked that he won't touch that series even with a 10ft pole cause he's also experienced the hellish reality of japanese entrance exam for the arts and reading Blue Period will just trigger his trauma of that period in his life...

Apologies for the tangent but the opening of the "Mushoku Tensei" portion kind of lit this rant I've been sitting on for a long time now. Hopefully it won't be too scatterbrained. I can't help but feel that people have this very messed up view of what Isekai/Another World/Portal Fantasy/etc consists of. Heck, I'd argue it's not even a genre, which I'm starting to see a lot of people call it nowadays, just a plot device at best. That's not even getting into how Portal Fantasy stories have been extremely common for decades and could be found world wide across multiple media, only relatively recently getting coined with the term "Isekia". In a way, I can't blame people for having this stigma against them cause, well, the anime adaptations for many of them are so poor. While I wouldn't say it's a hard rule, nearly every remotely popular Portal Fantasy in the last couple of years were all fairly good adaptations: "KonoSuba", "Saga of Tanya the Evil", "Re:Zero", etc. Heck, there are two in particular that stand out due to the staffing behind them. "Reincarnated as a Slime" had I think every person on the production team being a fan of it and "Mushoku Tensei" had an entire studio created just for it. They weren't perfect but the labors of love behind them showed and they are celebrated for it...mostly. But the ones that are bad adaptations, oh boy are they just bad across the board. Though that's unfortunately a common issue for Japanese animation in general I guess. Way too many shoddy adaptations are getting made these days. That's what people end up seeing and paying attention to. I know there were plenty of Portal Fantasy adaptations I was looking forward to, since I liked the source material or manga adaptations, only to be burned by how awfully badly they got adapted: "Death March", "So I'm a Spider, So What?", "Combatants Will Be Dispatched", etc. And now whenever I see another one get announced, I have so little faith that I start freaking out cause it's basically a coin flip (please let "Tensei Shitara Ken Deshita" be at least decent damn it). Well, that and another possible reason the concept is so disliked is the association with everyone's favorite punching bag "Sword Art Online"...which oddly isn't Portal Fantasy, or at least stopped having associated elements eventually, but whatever. I don't know. It's just strange to me to see this zeitgeist that anything remotely resembling Portal Fantasy as this modern blight. I mean, sure, certain tropes definitely have gotten more popular and prevalent but still. Feels like it's two decades too late.

Waterstones lied to me when they said november, and now its january and its still yet to come out the fuckers.

Mushoku tensei was great but I think I wouldn’t have appreciated the series as much if I found this during an earlier part of my life. Same when I watched the Cowboy Bebop anime for the first time. Frieren looks interesting and hopefully it gets a great adaptation. Ranking of Kings, Odd Taxi and Mushoku Tensei are my top picks. Also I did love Evangelion rebuild and it ended well and concluded it properly. The series had some of the best scenes although I don’t like the Asuka backstory. Also I loved the violet evergarden movie
