Everything GREAT About: Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation | Second Half

[@AnimeWins]

These beautiful comments really make the effort worthwhile I swear.

[@idle9195]

amazing video!

[@DarthPoyner]

I think my greatest entertainment wish would be for Overlord and Log Horizon to be taken on by this studio. They really are raising the bar for anime quality.

[@crthejediknightninja]

So just a few fun facts/other things, the duel Eris has as they leave the Doldia tribe is anime only but it's a nice touch. Geese wasn't locked up after helping save the village, but for some reason he was in the anime, he actually becomes drinking buddies with the Chief and Rujered during their stay there which is why Rujered is completely fine with Geese tagging along. 35:39 The bartender was almost replaced with Geese in the anime because the studio didn't want to make another unique design, but the author of the LN INSISTED the line had to be delivered by an unrelated third party, and it makes the line so impactful. 38:29 Unrelated to the point you are making, and don't quote me on this, because I'm only up to LN 4 which where they are is in LN 5, Rujerid gets challenged like this about halfway through their journey on the Demon Continent, for some reason they seem to have moved it to this point, I imagine because it flows nicer with the idea of saving the Superd's reputation. 50:26 Aisha is actually very intelligent and mature, she's much more like what Rudy would have been like if he behaved like a "normal" child and the anime tries to portray it(especially with how she speaks), but it's kinda hard unless you know Japanese. 55:27 The anime doesn't portray this particularly well, but when Orsted grabbed Rudy's chest and Rudy started coughing up blood, Orsted didn't crush his internal organs or anything like that, he just scorched Rudy's lungs so he literally can't inhale on his own, so he's not able to do anything other than wheese. So when he casts that wind spell in front of his mouth, he's actually shoving oxygen down his throat in order to keep himself alive, very painful, but it works. Rudy also cannot use healing magic chantless because chantless casting relies on the feeling of using the magic and having some sort of scientific understanding/proven reasoning for how a spell works, like water is condensing water out of the air, fire I'd assume is literally burning mana and oxygen, Rudy doesn't have an in-depth understanding of how healing magic works(or healing wounds in general), if he had medical training he would probably be able to do it chantless. Finally about that fireball, he's envisioning a nuclear bomb in that scene, that's how much power he's putting into that. 1:00:00 I don't know if this is in the LN I only read the manga for this scene so far, but before the next one happens Rudy is invited to a retainer meeting and made a retainer(one of the 3 remaining counting him) for the Boreas family, and Ghislaine is quite adamant about Eris just running off with Rudy and being happy rather than any other option she has. 1:02:22 Sidenote unrelated to yours, the song is very obviously a new drearier rendition of the Traveler's Song AKA OP 1, called Traveler's Song - Homecoming, which that subtitle makes it even MORE depressing and fitting than it already is to begin with seeing what happened to the beautiful land we saw in the first cour. 1:06:37 COMPLETELY RANDOM FUN FACT, This sequence I believe is taken from the extra chapter at the end of the first LN, and it's just a short story about basically what you see here, but Zenith does tease Rudy quite a bit more and tells him how happy she is he was born.

One thing I think you missed during the fight with the Dragon God that made Rudeus' actions stand out even more: he literally used magic to force air into his crushed lungs in order to stay conscious long enough to fire off that giant purple fireball.

Another attention to detail is in the fact that earlier in the story it was mentioned that the only magic rudeus can't cast incantationless was healing magic, hence why he had to force air into his lungs rather than healing them with healing magic.

There's backstory for the woman in bikini armour in LN. She and her sister were teleported somewhere and they were violated by group of bandits. She recovered from the incident after paul saved them but her sister didn't. So she wears that bikini armour to gather all the attention and keep it away from her sister who is still traumatised.

[@bipedalanimeskull]

during the Orsted fight, i just love how they really demonstrated that the magic in Mushoku Tensei is rooted in science. Rudeus, being someone with modern knowledge, clearly implemented those knowledge a lot better than people of that age. How he sharpened the stone bullet to a point, spin it real fast before shooting it off to achieve maximum damage. Then the fire ball changing color as Rudy made it hotter and hotter. If this were another typical fantasy anime, it'd have just been bigger rock, bigger fire ball, and different fire color for the sake of being cool with no substance to it. p/s: also in ep. 21, during the training fight, Eris' smirk as she avoided Ruijerd's spear deserves a win. It's only showed for a split second, but holy hell it's so Eris, so in character, i love that the animators did that. 2nd p/s: episode 23, other than the last metaphor, there are a bunch of metaphors and imagery at the beginning as well, done so tastefully

[@martinthomas2520]

Agreed, I just find it annoying how some of the modern isekai fans trash Mushoku Tensei saying "it's iNfErIoR to other isekai out there" and then turn around to say "SAO is a masterpiece". Like damn even we know Mushoku isn't the first isekai ever written but you can't take away the fact that it was a major pioneer to the genre and wished more people would put more respect when watching the show today, because if it had failed then who knows how relevant isekai would have been today, so please be a little appreciative, folks! 😤

[@ggadams639]

Nobody goes into a fantasy land to fuck children and be happy of it. It's not a good story and there is nothing realistic and mature about it. It's just edgy teen drama without the maturity. The focus on sex is stupid, and there is more on the rest of the story, it doesn't get better....

[@burny7216]

In response to where Lilia and Aisha were teleported, the light novel additionally explains that there were a number of victims that died as a result of where they were teleported to. Some were embedded in rock, some among the clouds and fell to their death, some probably deeper than Lilia underwater and drowned, some in monster nests, some taken advantage of and put into slavery. And even as of light novel #22 (Season 1 ends at #6), we have no idea what the true cause and full effect of the Displacement Incident was.

[@RainSennin_ismyAlt]

Its crazy how they managed to give us so much story in such a short time without making it seem rushed while also keep giving us character developments and awesome scenery shots

[@jdoggivjc]

If there's one thing I really appreciated is how the anime handled revealing Rudeus' backstory. In the LN, they dropped Rudeus' entire backstory in chapter 1, so you had context for everything Rudeus was thinking from the very beginning. However, I really liked how the anime didn't do that - they slowly reveal things throughout season 1 (both halves) as it becomes relevant to what he's currently facing in his new world, so much so that you didn't get the full picture of everything until the final episode of the season, where you realize just how horrible his previous life had been, not to mention just how brutal his death was. I was (for the most part) anime only on Mushoku Tensei until the final episode, so all of this really came as a surprise to me.

[@chris.replay]

Personally one of my new favorites as well. The brutally honest depiction of depression and anxiety, and how hard it is to overcome them is simply incredible. As much as you're an "ANIME" channel, I'd like to love to see your reactions to Castlevania or Arcane. Castlevania is definitely an anime in all definitions except it's made in the USA, whereas Arcane is an animated show that very clearly wears its anime inspirations on its proverbial sleeves Keep up the great work!

[@tohuiii]

Ngl the 2 final episodes i cried my soul out. It's been a while since an anime touched me like that. Starting from the goodbye of Ruijard, it was sad but also wholesome, it didn't break me but it put a lump in throat that it was hard to swallow. Then when Eris abandoned him after that "beautiful" scene, honestly in my anger i called her a bitch(although when i heard her explaination i was kinda relieved) and when Rudeus cried for the first time in the anime i could almost feel his saddnes myself. But what really broke me was that what brought him back from that dark place he was in was the incondicional love of his mother. *And i almost cried again watching the video thanks to your commentary*

[@ggadams639]

Good for you, but it's not a good story. Good storytelling, but not a good story.

[@Vortex_Zero]

I have to say after a friend convinced me to finally pick this show up and watch it it made me feel things I havent felt since I watched Re:zero. I have a nasty habbit of watching shows about characters who overcome themselves and the world around them because in a lot of ways I see these characters in myself. I guess it's a form of confort food in a way. I myself have recently come out of a period of hardship the past year and still recovering but shows like these are wat help me make it through and help me push myself through. I cant even begin to put int words how awesome these shows are in the fact that the carry the message that you as a person are stong and can make it through. I really cant wait for the next season if we even get one and same goes for Re:Zero.

[@HaxeRain]

as a novel reader, there is one thing that i can spoil and its not a spoiler at the same time, Mushoku Tensei never stops developing its characters, it has struggles and happy moments too but it never stops making its characters develop and come forward, if anything, i really suggest you to check some interviews with the author, they shed some extra light in his own intentions when writting the series and its simply incredible the humbledness and how grounded the author is, also notes how kind of a person he can be

Great video, as always! Really appreciate the effort these must take! Regarding the win at 25:25 re: difficulty animating horses, that's actually a fairly significant plot point for much of an episode in Shirobako towards the end of its first cour (if you are not aware of it, it is basically an anime about making anime, and it is really good - PS: if you do check it out, whether for a video or in your own time, highly recommend the OVAs too, which are the pilot episodes of the anime series' that the featured production team make). Also, re: 1:01:38 about the hair cutting, from what I understand, it is a big symbolic thing (especially in East Asian cultures/media for girls/women, but the "Important Haircut" tv tropes page suggests it is more widespread than just that) to cut one's hair short just before heading off on a big character-related personal journey of some kind. I think it is supposed to symbolise letting go of past attachments, at least until returning from the journey, or something like that. The most notable example I can think of in animation is probably in Mulan (1998) (haven't seen the remake, so unsure if it is there too). re: 1:04:35 - I KNOW RIGHT!? LIKE, WHY NOT SAY THAT IN THE LETTER!? (I know it's because Eris and tsun-tsun and awkward with expressing feelings, but dammit! TT_TT )

Regarding Erys' letter, let's not forget that Erys is basically still an elementary student and she hasn't been using written language since the disaster which is probably more than 2 years. I'm honestly impressed she managed to write that much.

[@HaxeRain]

about cutting the hair, it also represents new beginnings, growing your hair takes long time and all, so cutting it short symbolizes a change and a new start, which is applicable to Eris setting out for herself, as she's been overly reliant on Rudeus and Ruijerd protection and now had the strongest eye opener she could ever had in both them getting bodied by orsted without doing a single scratch outside of rudy, and her realization of how small rudy is compared to her and yet the difference of burden both have, as rudy was the pillar of their group

[@falcon221sprint]

Great video, thank you for sharing it with us. I totally agree with your insight. I think it has already been said a lot of times, but I recomend all who see this to read the WN and/or the LN. They are on another level and will greatly improve the whole experience.

[@theunprofessional5359]

It says a great deal about the quality of story telling that watching recaps can bring joy and tears.

[@aidenbohannon1520]

I love this anime. I had so much fun living through it and I hope that it gets the recognition it rightfully deserves. Amazing video and I loved the reactions. It was like we were the same person feeling the same thing

[@jdiggity8155]

I absolutely love Mushoku Tensei and really loved the first half of the season that you made a Everything GREAT About, thanks for the great content and can't wait to see what you make for 2022!

[@Inukami18Okami]

If you been paying attention to Eris the whole time, you know she sucks at communication, the letter is 100% how she is at trying to convey her feelings about anything, Rudy being shocked is understanding, in that they had a night of intimacy, then he's shocked to realize she just left him after that, was a huge blow to his processing of her message, after so much time he knows shes bad at comminication, bbut he didnt think that way, he read it as you would read any message. It's all just a misunderstanding on both of them, cant wait for S2 to be animated As a veteran of the series

[@kush2319]

I ADORE watching these videos because they allow me a second perspective on a show I already enjoy, but it gives me a quicker way of “rewatching” the show, without the time commitment of a full series. Keep up the AMAZING work, you’re fantastic!

[@Soupurman]

47:13 for anyone who was wondering what was happening here, first off watch the show, but if you can't, basically the glasses guy was infatuated with the Roxy statue Rudeus made and it was his prized possession, he said that he found a "bump" under her arm and sanded it down as an imperfection. Rudeus then explains that it was no mere bump but was actually a nip slip where the statue shows her naked but being embarrassed and covering herself up but in her hastfulness to cover herself, she doesn't quite cover her nipple

[@lightfeather7948]

20:39 i just wanna point out, the way tersena introduced herself is exactly how a beginner in japanese would say: my name is "something something". And i like that detail. watashi no namae wa tersena desu = My name is tersena o namae wa tersena desu = My name is tersena I could be wrong because i´m also still new in japanese but I would say, that the bottom sentence is more native-like

[@islindrVt]

God damn you, this season made me cry so much and now this video is making me remember the scenes and cry again, how dare you make me feel emotions, take my like and leave

[@biteyalmighty7874]

Thanks for your hard work on these videos. Mushoku Tensei will always be one of my favorite stories and you really helped squeeze out a few more drops of appreciation for it. Thanks especially for gushing so hard about the landscapes and city shots, I was definitely taking them for granted.

[@nervsupportslgbt4891]

Hands down one of the best or even the best isekai Anime I ever watch, Love your videos. Nice way to recap what happend, so I probably rewatch this video when the next season comes out.

[@Spmochi]

32:45 the map in the back ground rather is for one of the many continents in this world 55:20 although it wasn't mentioned in the anime the lightnovel stated that rudy had poured in all the remaining magic he had into a basic fireball with the image of a nuke, this is possible because of rudy's ability to use magic without incantations; Normally people automate their magic output by using incantations however what rudy does is he makes up a script on the fly leading to him being able to pump in as much mana as he is able to into a single spell, this also lets him get better control of the spells enabling him to make the figures we have seen P.S. season 2 has already been announced

[@ParasocksTV]

I'm surprised you didn't mention the different shades on the trees, 24:50 from the rain/flooding for the past 3 months. Its a small detail that most people wouldn't catch or think to include.

[@dek21a1]

Also, this anime has 6 opening songs and 2 ending songs, the last OP being a different edition of the first OP. For the first season, that's probably a new record for most songs in an anime. Also *chef's kiss* brilliant video.

[@primallanturn3366]

Yeah the remix hit super hard with the revisiting of his home. I was waiting for him to mention it but he never did :(

[@kristoffer2250]

Thing is... we're still covering child Rudeus. The novels cover his entire life, from birth to his death. We're still at volume 6 of a 25 volume series, at only 2 turning points. So, there's a lot to look forward to

[@yacqub]

too bad it turns shit

[@kingace6186]

This second season has made feet more emotions deeper than I ever thought was possible. Absolutely incredible. It is honestly rare that a show like this -- especially an isekai -- can make me feel this type a way and teach valuable lessons that I will always treasure.

[@SneakyS14]

I ABSOLUTLY ADORE all your content i watch every episode with great joy ani even tear up with sad scenes again with the amount of sadness you show while narrating LOVE IT

[@shadowlibra5758]

Very many thanks to you for making this huge video! Jobless Reincarnation is one of my top anime ever watched too

[@Vaestus]

One thing Im surprised wasnt mentioned was at 34:25. I know you already mentioned Eris's reaction to seeing Rudeus so sad, but in this scene it was amazing seeing how quickly Eris caught on to the change in Rudeus, and immediately connected it to the new voice in the room and immediately got pissed off and confronted Paul. It genuinely hits me how nice that scene was.

[@takeela1234]

i dont comment on videos all that often but watching this and the first one made me feel like ive watched the anime again. cant forget the awesome commentary.

[@CezarCociorba]

Thanks for the relaxing video in the new year

[@ceTarnity]

This show has some of the best world building i’ve ever seen in an anime. Watching it feels like I’m actually there.

[@ggadams639]

it's quite good, especially compared to other isekais, but the other parts are not great. All the sex stuffs are proofs of the author true motives.

[@JakkFrost1]

It honestly goes to show just how much you like this anime, the fact that you had this video up only about 2 weeks after the last episode aired. And as soon as I saw it, I knew you'd love that Asian looking city!

[@FinDi90]

Good Job! loved watching this. These were my first ever videos of "anime wins". I didn't know these existed and I'm very happy to have stumbled upon them. I also learned a new English word; poignant. New English words are hard to come by, at my English level that is. So good job on that front too. Always a pleasure to listen to well written and rich language.

[@sleepy8308]

Good shit, ive been waiting ages for this, thank you

[@AosorarisuUnedited]

Well done, you found most all the details I saw and some I had missed. Honestly, I don't think it's possible to catch them all nor enough time in the world to explain them all. This anime is a modern work of pinnacle art even when it's dealing with some tough subjects. Well worth watching an hour and 10 minutes to remind me of all the wins.

[@silverune5274]

I love the way you dealt with ep 22. Many people try to bring down a story just because they don't like certain things that happen. They never realize that alot of effort is put into the story, and stuff like that is thought about in advance.

[@AnarchHive]

I had the first video suggested and just thought I check if the video for part 2 is up... and there it is, posted just 40 minutes ago! What an amazing way to start the new year, Mushoku became one of my favourit shows so this video is gonna be a real treat.

[@altname4742]

One of the best surprises in the recent years. Loved the anime and once again loved rewatching it through your video. Keep up the awesome job and I hope season 2 comes fast

[@noble430]

Couldn’t agree with your opinions more! I’m glad you did this one and can’t wait for more!

[@baalzamon3593]

There's like two anime that have made me cry. This is one of them

[@OfficialMageHD]

Not sure if it was commented on already, but it's amazing what they did with episode 21. At the start we see what horrors are about to come, and in turn we're terrified the moment Orstead shows up. They gave us the terror of Orsteads curse. Even more so when you consider how much we've seen Rudy and Eris accomplish, compared to Ruijerd and what he can do, then to see how even being so far ahead of Rudy and Eris, Ruijerd was defeated so easily. It's something I felt ever since I watched the episode, but took reading someone else explaining it for me to finally be able to grasp and put into words what they did. Fantastic work.

[@Faithful_Tribe]

I replayed that ship going behind the dock scene multiple times; the random background character action was so entrancing.

[@Tooopper]

One of my favorite things about this adaptation is that even when it can’t follow LN material, it still supplements that with great artistic choices that play with the people who are in the know. Things from showing off a certain building in Millishion, the directing style with the Zenith memory scene, and truly hitting it home with Roxy’s scene to make sure that an extremely important factor has its emotional weight for when it kicks again miles down the line. Even with its slight imperfections, as all adaptations inevitably are, it is one with so much care towards its source material and it’s work that I binged the entire LN series after part 1, then rewatched part 1 into part 2 just to make sure I appreciated everything they added. Just like you, it shot up into my top 10 way too fast.

[@RealMarvinGaye]

I absolutley love these videos. Jobless rencarnation is my 3rd favorite anime of all time! I'm glad you're enjoying it so much!!!!! Keep up the awesome video quality. Your animation team must be putting some long hours in :)

[@AnimeWins]

If by Your animation team you mean editing it's literally all done by me. Writing, narration and editing : )

[@RealMarvinGaye]

@@AnimeWins Yep, I know it's all you. And the fact that these videos have such high quality really speaks volumes on how dedicated you are to this. Keep it up man.

[@skroink_z]

I believe there are no spoilers here as I'm just clarifying some things and talking about things that were cut from the scenes that was included in the LN but I'm just gonna include this here anyway. 55:20 he also blasted air into his broken lungs to be able to get a proper breath in. The purple fire ball was said to be the most destructive spell he could think of in the LN, while creating it his goal was that the result would be like that of a nuke without thinking about those around him. In a later scene we can see Rudeus trying to replicate the "Disturb magic" spell Orsted used which shows us that he isn't done trying to improve his magic. He also thought that it might be useful against magic disturbing spells like that used by Pax (the piece of shit prince) in the trap meant for Roxy. Amazing video and thank you for the content. Hope you had a good new years and a good continued year.

[@Cha0sRising90]

The fact that this has been put for 4 days and only has 30k views is wrong! The hard work, dedication, and love you put into all of your videos is always great to see! I hope this channel continues to grow.

[@ewy8839]

Oh my god, I am so sad I can't watch Jobless reincarnation right now. This was an amazing video and I know there will be more amazing content to come so I am looking forward to it. The level of detail you put into your videos is also amazing.

[@Darth_Bateman]

You lived to see Evangelion 3.0+1.0, you can wait for Mushoku Tenseis next season.

[@SuSpInTiOn]

Great work! Absolutely loved your commentary on this series, it's so good and I'm glad there's others who share that opinion, considering how misunderstood Rudy is by some people, he's not meant to be likeable at first and this story shows his growth and I absolutely adore his redemption, similar to Shield Hero going from truly the bottom, striving to be a better person day by day! Such a wonderful series, I'm so excited for the OVA and hopefully a 2nd season! 7-12 of the LN volumes are absolutely fantastic and we desperately need to get there with the anime!

[@skipyou2870]

Thank you @animewins it’s gives me pleasure to know that someone genuinely loves this show as much as I do

[@kaipearson2465]

This is one of those shows that really reminds me of why i love fantasy so much, so much depth to the characters, lore, world etc its unreal, great video as always POG

[@GINTEX]

I usually don't watch long videos... But man... I have to make an exception for your's... ❤️ Keep up the good work!

[@_tkd_6689]

I've been looking forward to this, and by the looks of it (specifically the length) you agree that this is a very good second half, gotta love that

[@azon7458]

Perfectly encapsulates why I like this anime so much, great video!

[@adibabrar1702]

What scares me is that the final episode felt way too much like a wrap-up. I really hope we get a continuation

[@_NguyenDinhKhoi]

Bruh there is like 19 vol left to adapted

[@ChesterCheatin]

Season 2 and 3 are in production, they made a whole studio just for 1 anime, it's getting the royalty treatment. If they do adapt everything it'll be 7-8 seasons :)

[@vampocalpyse]

A bit late to this comment section but this anime is one of my favs as well, you know its good when you see clips of scenes after months of not watching and just in the short bits you feel all the highs and lows of the characters journey be it self improvement or day to day lives. Can't wait for season 2 hopefully they keep up the quality, I doubt they can top it the art in this is the closest thing to perfect this side of the afterlife.

[@iosonandroid]

This show will be one of the most bingeable in a few years... we're watching it unfold and have to wait. The future folks get to immerse themselves completely. I'm glad to have watched this show episode by episode and to see someone that appreciates it as much as you do!

[@omena2757]

32:41 little correction, that map is only of the milis continent so its not the whole world

[@GrzegorzSobkowicz]

The scenes where he talks with god are funny when you know who their voices are in Gintama.

[@FierDuxt96]

Why I love Mushoku Tensei summed up well. Here is hoping to a season 2 announcement soon and knowing what's coming, you guys are in for a treat.

[@xXTheXXMrMasterXx]

You cant just give me this greatness 1 hour video analysis at midnight I'm never gonna sleep early T_T great job Mr.Anime Wins person!

[@drakebrothers9757]

Amazing video!! If you look close, Rudy actually fills his lungs with air when he blasts himself away from the dragon god just goes to show the great thinking involved in this anime!
