I just binged the series yesterday out of boredom, and I got to say that the story is well written albeit fast-paced. Every character is doing their best to be good despite their shortcomings, and that is very relatable. It's the first isekai anime I have watched fully to its length. I have watched snippets of Rimuru's isekai but never really had much time to finish it due to responsibilities as an adult. Yeah the perverted scenes are disgusting, but it is also real that these things are hard to fight, given further the background of the character. And you know, I really look forward for the MC to become a better person, aside from being a powerful magic user, just like how we in real life struggle to rid ourselves of our rotten sides. I never knew that it was one of the firsts to popularize the isekai genre though.

[@Happyfoam-lw3yt]

I don't think it's fast paced even in the slightest. What I got from it is that the story is just "isakei, minus the stuff that deliberately slows shows down like beach or sauna episodes". There's nothing in the show that I'd call "pointless" plot-wise (except SOME of the ecchi, but even then it's limited to very short segments). There's always something going on, and it's ALWAYS driving the story forward.

Whats great about this story is that you follow Rudeus the MC literally from birth to death, not like some manga where the MC get overpowered while he is still a teen or a kid.

Rudeus is quite overpowered since very young. However, although in that world magic is basically omnipotent, magicians themselves are not. Which is an important distinction and a line that gets reinforced as the story unfolds.

[@waleuska]

nah whats great is Rudeus adventure. A lot of overpower MC don't even have a purpose. They are just wondering around doing random crap. Great example Death March to the Parallel World Rhapsod. Others like So what i'm a spider have a purpose and is a great watch and read.

[@DanTE_1203]

@@alzef1375 compared to the likes of Ainz and Rimuru, Rudeus is not overpowered. Sure against regular humans and beastmen opponents, he's OP but when it comes to the strong ones, I believe Rudy never faced them one on one and he also got his ass handed to him a number of times. He is also not good at everything. Sure for a magician, he's probably at emperor/god level but his swordsmanship is only intermediate-saint at best. There are also opponents who he cannot beat even after a 2nd face off and by the end of the series he is nowhere near the strongest. And all of this is a breath of fresh air tbh. The overpowered isekai mc trope has kind of gotten really boring minus slime and overlord since how it was used was different.

I still prefer the world building and overall story in Bookworm, but the anime quality is clearly better in Mushoku Tensei. Also the best mix of all the adaptations in Bookworm is the manga (best mixed baby to use the analogy of the video), which is hilarious with the manga of Mushoku Tensei being the worst adaptation of the story. Overall, read the manga for Bookworm and watch the anime for Mushoku Tensei and you get the best of both stories, at least so far we can tell at this point.

[@racingandy]

@@zomfgroflmao1337 I’ve read both, in the light novel form, and can safely say that both Bookworm and Mushoku tensei can be rated as two of the most delicate isekais out there. However, this is talking about the light novel adaptation, as I have not read the manga of bookworm. These two books are often the top two that are recommended to people interested in the genre of isekai in my country. However, I do recommend that, if you have not yet read the light novel of Mushoku, it is too early to judge which one you like more. I would say the best part of Mushoku Tensei lies somewhere that manga or anime has not, and will not touch on soon yet. Bookworm, on the other hand, is also really delicate in story-building, but is also extraordinary in a sense completely different to Mushoku, I would say. All in all, bookworm or Mushoku, I’d recommend anyone to read the novel if they’re ever interested in the series after watching anime or reading manga. Adaptations can only rarely bring out full potentials of their original works, and I say this even for Mushoku Tensei so far.

[@joaomarcoscosta4647]

I really don't get the whole "grandfather of Isekai" thing... At least according to Wikipedia, Mushoku Tensei's WN started in November 2012. Which is later than at least 3 of the series shown on 1:10. (Re: Zero, Shield Hero, and Isekai Cheat Magician) And Konosuba is from December 2012. Konosuba, which is supposedly making fun of the tropes started by Mushoku Tensei, started a month after it. (A bit too soon if Mushoku Tensei was really the series starting those tropes, don't you think?) Rather than the start of a trend, it feels much more like Mushoku Tensei is just going along with the current trend. And turning some of those tropes up to 11. If we are talking about the Isekai trend starter, wouldn't that probably be SAO? The WN is from 2002, (The same year as the .Hack series, which, coincidently or not, has a similar premise.) the LN is from 2009, and the anime adaptation is from July 2012 - before Mushoku Tensei even started being published, if the info on Wikipedia is correct. I remember A LOT of Isekai stories starting to pop up around that time, all following the pattern of "high school otaku/gamer boy gets transported to generic fantasy land (usually either inside a video game, or with a few clear video game "mechanics") where he proceeds to become an OP hero, build his harem and live the otaku power fantasy. Which, yeah, SAO wasn't the first Isekai either (Inu Yasha, the Twelve Kingdoms, Wizard of Oz, and Dante's Inferno all predate it by at least a couple of years) but I feel like it was the series that made Isekai really blow up in JP. I don't think Mushoku Tensei did anything particularly novel... I mean, the whole "being reborn as a baby, and having to learn a new language from the start" felt different, but that was it. I do think it is a good execution of Isekai tropes, though. Or at least the first 6 volumes of the LN were. The rest of the WN, not so much. Maybe the LN adaptation improved it, I don't know, I might check out the more recent volumes sometime. Anyway, if someone can explain why would Mushoku Tensei gets called "the grandfather of Isekai" I'd appreciate it, because so far it only seems like misinformation to me.

[@aussieboy4279]

You’re exactly right. The reason it’s often touted as the “Grandfather of Isekai” is because it popularised a lot of the common troupes we see in Isekai nowadays. No it wasn’t the first one to do it but it was one that got popular enough that everyone started to do it. Also I’d hardly say Konosuba is parodying Isekai troupes more like it exploits it for comedy. SAO may have come first and was definitely more popular but it’s missing a lot of the troupes we see in most Isekai now. The whole truck-kun , dying and being reincarnated into another world, magic and swords fantasy world with elf’s and weird animal people are all missing from SAO (well technically it is a magic and swords fantasy world but it’s still very distinct from the typical fantasy world).

Actually, SAO is much older than every other light novel Isekai(including Jobless Reincarnation and Log Horizon), since the original novel series is as old as 2002, and the light novels of SAO came during 2009, meanwhile, the light novels of every other light novel Isekai franchises came after during the 2010s, plus SAO introduced all all of the tropes, traditions, and gimmicks that would later be seen in all of the other Isekai light novel franchises, hence why SAO is considered to be the forefather of light novel Isekai franchises(and it’s also the oldest and long running light novel Isekai, as well as the most popular)!

[@HiHi-iu8gf]

@@ashkirby8896 Most modern fantasy isekai borrow much more heavily from stuff like mushoku tensei tho. SAO was very influential in establishing initial tropes for 'other world' stuff - but I'd argue the modern isekai genre tends to often borrow more from mushoku. And by 'modern isekai genre', I mean the shows people actually categorise primarily as isekai. Series like SAO, Log Horizon, even kinda Digimon, and whatnot - are technically early isekai, but most people wouldn't consider them primarily being in the 'isekai genre', if you get my drift.

[@ashkirby8896]

@@HiHi-iu8gf SAO is what popularized “novel and light novel based” Isekai franchises, and introduced all of the tropes seen in later light novel based Isekai franchises, such as the protagonist being an otaku, shut in, or a neet, being trapped in a fantasy world(the Aincrad and Alicization arcs are prime examples of this), the protagonist being super powerful and overpowered(although in each major arc of SAO, Kirito had to restart his skills from scratch and regrind his way back to the top, although near the end of the second part of the Alicization arc during the War of the Underworld part, he gains a new God Mode form that combines his selves from Aincrad, Alfiem Online, Gun Gale Online, and the Underworld, and their skills, stats, traits, aspects, and powers and abilities), and having a harem of cute girls(although unlike later Isekai harem franchises, the one in SAO is more of a supportive harem meaning they decided to let go of their feelings for him though they remain close friends with him, and instead they choose to support his relationship with Asuna who’s his only real girlfriend, and they aren’t competing with Asuna over him either, with the exception of Alice)!
