Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation Proves Why It's the Best Isekai Anime - Main Image
In the isekai genre, protagonists are often taken away to fantastical worlds to fulfill predetermined destinies. But this genre also falls into predictable patterns that are boring and uncompelling to watch.
However, amid the sea of generic protagonists and recycled tropes, Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation stands out as a refreshing and innovative take on the isekai formula.
The second part of season 1 is currently ranked the highest in the isekai anime category with an 8.67/10 score on MyAnimeList. So, let’s explore why Mushoku Tensei is the best isekai anime so far.
Rudeus Greyat: The Flawed Protagonist
The story of Mushoku Tensei revolves around Rudeus Greyrat who was a 34-year-old Neet in his previous life.
He is flawed and doesn’t care about anyone, including his parents. He even misses their funeral and is eventually thrown out of the house.
