The Isekai Ive Been Waiting For Good Morning all of you virgins In this day and age it is pretty safe to assume the isekai genre has taken over the otaku media. Be it anime manga or light novels Especially light novels we get more isekai than we could ever ask for. Isekai is a genre I particularly like as it holds in my opinion an immense variety of ways of making a story interesting by making two worlds interact with one another. So this abundance of isekai should make me glad yet the genre has fallen into what I like calling The specifictwist loop. In other words as you all probably noticed the isekai series are always the same previous series but with an extremely small twist and while this can last for a few years its rapidly gets stale and repetitive once all routes have been explores. And this is what this genre is suffering from. However Isekai Trash as I am I still read an watch all isekais I find as I am able to endure the repetitiveness of the process if it means finding a bit of pleasure in a somewhat original series. However among this quest of good isekais I found one manga in which I quickly placed all my hopes in an isekai that instead of trying to innovate the genre once again with a minuscule twist went down the same path as Boku no Hero Academia and decided to retake the isekai genres basics and make them good. Which is why I shall now try and convince you to read the great work that Mushoku Tensei is. Mushoku Tensei is not in any ways revolutionary in its plot. If anything it is actually quite the same as any isekai series out there. We have a fat unliked otaku scared of leaving his house perverted and who dies once more by the hand or should i say wheel of Truckkun. As if it wasnt as classic as an isekai could get this one decides to go down the overpowered prodigy with harem path as well. So you might be saying Well this doesnt seem different from anything Ive watched before. And youd be right. In terms of plot and story the whole series is extremely run of the mill. However the one point that genuinely brings me to enjoy and love this manga is the point Im about to introduce which is the characters. Our protagonist is like I said an extremely overpowered character and such from a really young age. However this character has a really open perverted side which makes him an extremely lovable character. Hes always dreaming about getting the girl with the big boobs hoping this girl will tell him she likes him. Along with that hes no dense dipshit like weve been used to. Quite on the opposite hes full of erotic fantasies and quite the mischievous planner. But hes also given an actual loveable nice side. By nice I dont mean your usual mighty full of morals nice who for some unknown reasons always knows perfectly how everyone is feeling. Here it is quite a warm childish one. Hell go and do whatever he can to prevent the people he likes from leaving his side often ending up in some really nice heartwarming moments. He doesnt know how anyones truly feeling and because of that hell often make mistakes that hell regret. But from those regrets will sprout a genuine wish to excuse himself to make things right and this not by chivalrous means but by the same means you and I would use struggling to understand how youve hurt their feelings and struggling to find a way to fix it.This side of our protagonist is what holds the whole manga together. The relationships are thoroughly explored be it his sisters parents relatives teachers friends lovers or even nobles that like or dislike him every single one of them feels really present and feels like it has an actual impact on the character. Not an impact that completely changes his personality like every anime does just this simple touch that slowly sinks in and slightly affects the character view. It is through this repeated process that this isekai creates an environment that makes the simple act of having the characters speak enjoyable. And the reason to all this setup ends up pretty clear when you get to one major event in the manga. Its a big spoiler so beware. The character focused aspect of the manga is pretty much its major attractive point and to be honest its pretty damn wellmade. But if thats not enough for you lets cut the serious crap and get to the goofy stuff. Ok you want some entertainement huh? Then how about having the protagonists father cheat on his wife and impregnate the maid who lives in the same house as them? And what if the 7 year old protagonist went on a political debate to prove the maid innocent so she can stay in their household? And the fact it actually works? Do you want random scenes ruined by the MCs perverted self? Do you want possible fights stopped by a single anime figurine?These are but a mere of the pretty hilarious stuff that happen in the manga and it brings forth a different aspect on certain situations that really lighten the mood while keeping its importance allowing for jokes inside of a fight as well as inside of a genuine romantic mood. Without this mood the manga probably wouldnt be the same so Im glad it is there as it makes certain common scenes quite interesting. Final Thoughts This Isekai is probably one of the few that stands out within the current flooding of the genre. Its peculiar take on the genre focusing on the relations inbetween characters more than action allows it to make all the characters feel human. Due to this the harem comes to me as one of the best Ive seen so far as the heroines are not only falling for our protagonist due to his prowess but also due to the way he interacts with them which is way more natural. It is fun sad heartwarming and hella damn cool so if I have anything to say Its Just go watch it you. Thanks for reading this review
