The Author didn't give Rudues a name as he wanted Rudeus to represent those who have given up on life, those who have shut themselves away from reality and indulged in their desire. Rudeus's Journey is the journey for redemption, the story emphasizes that " people can change" But it doesn't mean you will become a different person. Rudeus might have a different look, but he was the same insecure guy when he got Isekai. He was haunted by his past. He got over it but he needs people, relationships, and responsibility to hold it together. If those things fail, he would only return to the old path.

Yup. Throughout the series we see Rudeus break down a few times, and fail repeatedly. Despite being a power fantasy anime, this show displays a remarkable amount of weakness of character for the MC. While that sounds like a bad thing, it's really just to show how important it is to rely on those around you and be persistent. I think too many writers cheap out with stories of invincible characters, but characters who struggle and fail are far more emotionally engaging. I even appreciate that this series *doesn't* always end up with every conflict working out alright in the end. A truly engaging story has to have some stakes, and painting the situation as hopeless only to show the MC overcoming the odds can only be interesting so many times. I think there have to be some losses. It makes people more emotionally invested.

Rudeus's backstory is truly depressing, it's clearly because of his bad luck. And once he had been shoved into that darkness, he couldn't pull himself from there. But that's all the more reason I love his character in his next life. He knows he has been given a chance and he genuinely wants to change. But it is hard to change bad habits. That kind of realisticness also makes his character so great. As an anime only, I absolutely love his character the most. It's like watching a very close humble friend go through life.

Even more so when it's already years since you've made any meaningful or lasting progress.

This was good to learn. A lot of people don't like rudeus but to me he is by far the most interesting character in the show and feels like what an average degenerate would probably be like with nothing to hold him accountable. Starting from there instead of bullied kid with a heart of gold taken out by truck-kun is just so much better IMO. This is a man who actually needs a second chance, not just someone who needs more time in general.

It's good to point out that with Rudeus having a lot of time on his hands from trying to hide from society, it made him a more depraved high schooler instead. Social issues like bullying will distort any normal person to want to avoid society altogether. But only hiding away in their little santuary 24/7 would make any sane person to feel lifeless, so those that don't have the courage to suicide would often search for things that make them feel brief enjoyment of life, and that would be either drugs, carnal desires, or related to anything else that can raise adrenaline. With Rudeus's mind mentally stuck as a fresh high school student, I would imagine he would be stuck to wanting to sleep with love interests that match his high school age. Of course, he ended up aging and became much older now, so many found him revolting. I personally didn't find a problem with this part of Rudeus considering his background, and he became an admirable father in the light novels.

More mushoku tensei content is what I was craving, thank you!

I honestly think rudeus is one of the best written MC's of all time. I seriously can't wait for his entire redemption arc to be animated.

As a LN reader I have a feeling that majority of anime viewers would not consider what's coming a "redemption arc" per se. There's discrepancy between what most viewers consider Rudy's most flagrant transgression, and how it should be "fixed", and what he himself considers the most important issue to fix. People think that he has to redeem himself for hypersexual behavior. But he wants to redeem himself for failed previous life, for rejecting family and ruining all the connections and future he could have. Hypersexualization is just a side effect of that major mistake he made, it is not a "root of all evil". So when he won't become a shiny paragon of virtue chad of a protagonist it will be a "shitshow in a comment section" once again.

"one small decision changed his life" - that pretty much sums up all of Mushoku Tensei, and is a core feature of the plot. I think fate is a core theme in Mushoku Tensei. In the story, fate is shown to be fickle and unpredictable, while simultaneously being solid and unavoidable. The two strongest characters both have incredible knowledge about the future and how small details change it. However, these characters's knowledge quickly runs out, leading to Rudeus's position in the story to decide his own fate. In short, the future is only known when no actions are taken, and any action (no matter how small) can change your fate. Which is a pretty good message when you think about it.

Honestly it's the little things that elevate the anime to perfection in my eyes. As you said he was instantly killed in the LN but the scene of his eyes, the surgeons around him and the sudden switch to the new world were so incredibly pleasing to watch.

Mushoku Tensei and ReZero are one of the only Tensei and Isekai that the past of the protagonists really matter

On that guilty pleasure, Cheat Skill. I had wanted to you to a cut content for it. But I actually went ahead and read the manga. Aside from episode 4, which was really different, most of the show is really faithful to the source material. Mostly it just doing things in a different order than the manga.

This is honestly really saddening to me. As someone who’s really fascinated by computers myself, I can really relate to Rudeus in the sense that if I hadn’t made a few decisions in my life to not stay home all the time, I would’ve likely become exactly like him. I hope that there will eventually be an OVA for the prologue because there are so many people who can relate to Rudeus, and it’s a shame that the anime didn’t include the prologue. Not to say that the anime is absolutely incredible, but this little bit would’ve made the anime all the better. Thank you for making this video; I found myself getting a bit emotional from watching this haha.

Great video but there was one other key mistake he made that led to him being kicked out. Rudy's (we never learn his real name) older brother always used to support him and beleived that one day he'd make a change in his life. Even him not being there for his parents funeral didnt tick the older brother off that much. What caused his older to get angry and lash out at Rudy was the fact that he caught him jerking off to a picture/footage (cant remember which) of the older brothers daughter. Rudy had placed a spy camera in their shower so he could spy on his niece.

Love your content man! He really wasted all his og potential😢😢 This is truly BEST anime

Mushoku Tensei is my all time favourite Anime. Something I've just found out is that Rudues's life is EXTREMELY similar to mine. I love building PCs and it was my hobby around the time I was his age as well, I saved up and built my PC. But I never stopped there. After a few years of being holed up in my room thanks to Covid I decided to actually try in school, getting my grades up and actually trying I wanted to become an Electrical Engineer. Now here I am about to graduate HighSchool and unfortunately it didnt work out, I moved in the middle of my 11th year and had to switch back to Online classes, causing me to hole up in my room again for another year. Started going back an hour and a half away to my old school again in February and I cant really say I'm any happier, but at least I'm still working to something.

Favorite KZread Channel. He was a Dizzy main in guilty gear. I see why he likes Roxy so much ;)

Amazing content, like always. Wondering, what was the song used for the background?

I'm ngl I always found that part of the LN to be scarily relatable. I too built a custom gaming pc in highschool. I struggle with internet addiction, self-discipline, impulse control to the point it eats away at my physical and then mental health. It only got worse and worse as I gained more and more freedoms as an adult. Time also feels like it just burns away so fast. If I wasnt a night shift part-time Casino Dealer making like 36k yr then I would literally be the guy from Welcome to the NHK. Instead, I'm just that guy on my days off. Its like a terrible loop of insomnia from addiction to stimuli and lack of eating from being too lazy to cook or too distracted to remember to eat.

It's wild how his pre-highschool life is so similar to mine, my highschool life wasn't the greatest either but I was never bullied well at least not physically.

This kinda hits close to home, having to be athletic and techie at highschool then went to college, got depressed then computers were my coping mechanism. Went to internet cafes played there from 8 in the morning to 8 in the afternoon. Still that guy but not addicted anymore tho.

I already have completed all of Mushoku and I have to say this man needed just a bit of proper mental counseling only for few months though not for too long He literally makes me think harder for my own life

Even though Rudy's actions are questionable and sometimes downright wrong in his new life. Knowing why he became like that gives him an additional character layer. You did a good job Aninews.

Glad to see a creator taking interest in the second season, I thought most people had given up on the series. I'm on light novel 22 myself. We are in for a wild ride

Talk about his brother. Who used to come visit him when he became shutin.

3:47 The number one menace in not just school but in life as well.

This back story hit me harder than most - as I find myself like Rudy, wishing I had done more in school and or noticed my parents were willing to help with everything …plus I’m 34 too While not overweight, I look back to my childhood with much regret - doesn’t help my memories of childhood came flooding in as if they just happened yesterday Meanwhile my friends - when the subject gets brought up, barely remember the events

10:12 Bro! I was deeply touched from Rudy's backstory but that Rem mousepad threw me off guard 😅

I believe the reason it was skipped is because the director was basing the anime on the WN series, as attested by what showed on his screen at the very start (in the LN he was watching undefined, implied-to-be-foreign porn, while on the WN he was watching a creepshot video of his niece bathing that he himself shot, in both cases pleasing himself to the video during his parents' funeral). In the WN his past is seldom touched and only a couple of mentions about the day that turned him into a hikki-NEET are made (it's mentioned that he was beaten and tied naked to the school's gate for a perceived transgression, speaking up to bullies), and the only mention made of it to the point currently reached in the anime has appeared when it should. References to the computer that started it all, if I recall correctly, don't come till later. EDIT: just to expand a bit on it, his younger brother tried at first to stop his older brother from getting rowdy, but then he saw that the video he-who-would-be-Rudeus was chocking the chicken to was an amateur voyeur video of his severely underage daughter, he not only stopped trying to stop the carnage, he became the most violent of them all, smashing the computer with a bat and destroying the bat against a filthy incestuous lolicon.

6:39 everything up untill then hit me hard

I feel a connection to this guy. Thankfully, I have a very strict family, so it's not as worse as his life.

Nothing was going to fix the situation no matter what and the only person who could improve his life was himself. What he should have done is move to another town far away and started over. His psychological trauma would still be there but at least he wouldn't be surrounded by people he knew in a town where he was bullied. Even with moving, getting a new name etc. he'd still have his quality of life decreased for a decade or so. His brother is not responsible for how Rudeus decided to be.

But the ego boost from that made him flop school and got into a crappy highschool full of delinquents. He still held onto his ego there, and that's what first triggered the bullying.

first, Mushoku tensei is amazing
