00:00 Intro and Spoiler Free Section
08:28 Spoiler Section Starts
Mushoku Tensei AKA Jobless Reincarnation season 2 is coming soon, so it's a good time to look at theories, facts and trivia about Rudeus Greyrat, the author Rifujin na Magonote, and the anime series in general. In this Mushoku Tensei iceberg, I go through all kinds of interesting information about the characters, anime by Studio Bind, the light novels and the manga. I have divided the Jobless Reincarnation iceberg into a first section for anime only fans who don't want spoilers, and a spoiler section, so it's safe to watch if you are avoiding spoilers, as long as you leave the video at the warning. If you are looking for spoilers for Mushoku Tensei or have already read the light novels or web novel, then there is content related to later plot lines and side stories like Old Dragon's Tale and Redundancy later in the video. I hope you enjoy it! - Krátké a kreslené filmy
As an anime only watcher and hearing what's going to happen for the first time, this makes me more excited to see more of Mushoku Tensei.
I'm actually keeping myself busy with other games and anime because it's gonna be a little while before we make any kind of dent into the overall plot. Even when a new season comes out I'm probably not going to care until it's done. I just don't hope they sacrifice a lot of the slice of life elements in favor of cheapening the mood of the series. A lot of the true fun of the series is these slice of life arcs.
I’m re watching this again forth time now ❤
Yeah, I'm also currently an anime-only, but I don't care for spoilers. For some series, just make me more excited to keep going.
With MT announcements coming up I’m happy to see one of my fav series get more videos and glad your back nat!!!
Hope you enjoy!
Once again, MT is just packed to the brim with cool lore and I adore the way the ending is set up, cant wait to read it (which will be soon as we're at vol.22 now)
Here is one not many people know: As discussed in the video the first 9 volumes of Mushoku Tensei were censored in their first printing. Seven Seas then made revised versions of the first 9 volumes that are uncensored. You can check if you have the uncensored version by looking at the copyright page in your book (only the first 9 volumes). There it says "first printing" for the censored version and "Revised Edition" for the well revised edition.
Ok but here is the thing: Volume 9's revised edition actually has a misprint(?) version which is the uncensored version but it still says first printing in the copyright page.
I personally have one such version and was sad at first to have gotten the censored version until i made comparisons with the actually censored version, where i noticed that my version was actually the uncensored one.
Man, that sounds annoying! I only read digital copies so was able to get the latest editions without any issues, but if you collect the physical ones that's got to be a pain in the ass.
I can't wait for the secuel, but Rudeus narration is going to be missed. He was a narrator with so much personality!
Yeah, but I think that's why we didn't get to see much of Akihito's personality - he's probably going to be entertaining in different ways. I mean Nanahoshi loved him so he can't be too lame.
Also, having read Old Dragon's Tale which has a protagonist about as different from Rudeus as you can get, I trust rifujin to do something really good with whatever character he wants.
@@NatalieXHunter I really do hope that Aki is not the next protagonist. Him being a protagonist may be detrimental to the sequels success.
Isekai as a trope is popular because it simultaneously helps the writer and the reader with the story.
1. It makes worldbuilding and exploring it easier for the author since it's observed through the lenses of a character that has an idea of the "normal world" and can compare it, making it also easier for the reader to consume at the same time
2. Since the main character has the normal world experiences it makes it far easier for the reader to connect with the main character making them more invested in the story.
Now why does Aki doesn't work well as a new protagonist?
1. The world we explore had already been introduced to us readers, not all of it but a significant portion of it and anything that may be potentially relevant. Converting it through the lenses of the isekai'd main character doesn't serve a purpose for the reader here, also the author should be confident enough in his world that he no longer needs a story device of isekai'd MC to introduce us to it.
2. He'll be constantly compared to Rudy. I can already guarantee it. There's not real way around it, he may be a completely different character but it is likely he'll live in Rudy's shadow for a very long time both for the readers (and possibly in the story as well).
Aki in the story would work if Rifujin wants to completely disconnect the sequel from the original which looking at this tweets might be likely.
Aki would also work greatly if he wasn't the "main character" but the secondary character like Nana that still influences the story by their past and current experiences but isn't the main focus.
A character that would work great for that kind of sequel which still takes place in the same world would be one that was already in the story and the readers are already invested in. (Sieg and Lara are quite obvious although I know that Rifujin had already disproven that idea) It avoids both the problems of lack of relevancy and being overshadowed by the previous protagonist.
I truly hope that the next protagonist is Orsted himself.
One redundancy chapter from his Pov was great
I have to say I think you've missed the fact that Rudeus has weird remembering problems even in his 20s and maybe even earlier. This is also one of the reasons why he starts the diary in the first place. So Rudeus having dementia has more backing that theory than just him having hazy memory in his death bed. Might be some slowly developing memory issue etc. I personally subscribe to this theory.
Maybe, I just took him starting the diary more as that normal fear most people have that as they pass through life they won't remember many of the moments. For it to count as senile dementia he'd actually have to be, well, senior. Idk, I have a weirdly good memory for things that happened and so I find it frustrating when I talk to people I went to school with or whatever and I say 'remember that time...' and literally none of them do, so I guess that kinda flew over my head about Rudeus - I thought most people were like that!
@@NatalieXHunter To me how it is written about gives me weird vibes though. It happens trough the whole story as well.
------------------------------------------------------
From chapter Turning point 4:
What else?
It feels like I'm forgetting something…
"Ugh, this always happens."
Now I think about it, I'm always so forgetful.
I would have bouts of inspiration, and then promptly forget about them.
One good idea after another too.
I thought I had a good memory, but I really have too many weaknesses.
Not good.
I'm repeating my mistakes.
I was lucky this time, but what if I forget next time?
If I forget my mistakes, I won't improve.
But, what do I do?
I remember hearing that keeping a journal helps with memory.
"…alright, maybe I should start a diary?"
Not a bad idea.
--------------------------------------------------------
I'm convinced he has some issue with his memory. I don't know why you think he has to have specifically "senile dementia" to have memory issues. You can start developing issues with your memory really early too. It's just more rare. To me feels like it slowly creeps in and at Rudeus's old age it starts to be a bigger issue. When you start to get dementia etc it never just happens. It develops over a long time and gets worse and worse.
@@NatalieXHunter Additionally Rudeus also has an additional 35 years worth of memories, knowledge and well Trauma. Him developing dementia might just me a psychological issue. I dont think he had any kind of issues in his youth and its more that he had too keep far too much knowledge on hand. Once he became part of the "new" world and forgot more of his old world, its seemed this wasnt too much of an issue anymore.
I don't think he has to have senile dementia to have memory issues, I was saying the thing on the iceberg was 'senile dementia' which only prompted me to consider him in old age (because it's not senile dementia if you're young, it's something else).
If it were to be dementia I do see how Rudias could have it even from a younger age. His reincarnator status. If his soul somehow got corrupted from living longer than what is normal and resulting in something like early dementia. I personally don't think it's true because I think it's more to do with the massive time skips the series has. I probably can't remember every 5 year gap of events in my own life and that is kind of how the time skips in this series match up.
Especially someone like Rudius who has borderline mana capacity of a god. He is extremely combat capable and often spends many years preparing for combat or participating in it to kill time. He kind of defaults to it as a go to when he doesn't know what else to do. His mindset is I don't got anything better to do so I might as well hone my abilities more. You are less likely to remember things when your entire life is full of either achievements or potentially dangerous situations for extremely long periods of time. When your life feels fulfilling you are more likely to look toward the future than even pay attention to the past at all.
Glad to see you back again! Perfect timing, with new info coming soon, too. Plus nobody does MT content quite like you. 😋 Hope your luck has finally turned around.
Hey, thanks! And I really, really hope so too...
Glad to see you’re back and well 🙏🏾🙏🏾
Is so good to have you back
I glad you're back, I really missed your videos.
I missed your Musho Tensei videos. Glad you're back as well Natalie
Happy to see your back.
Glad to see a new video. Just liked it. And will watch later
Love your stuff and glad you are posting again
It’s because you, I became hooked to non-anime versions of not just Mushoku, but in general. You make it really easy for someone who’s non-manga/LN reader to follow each videos you produced. Very much looking forward to more of your readings and analysis. ❤
just wanted to say glad you're back making content 😁 your videos got me to read all of the LN for mushoku tensei.
That's awesome!
Glad to see you back. Great video.
Hey, thanks!
Oh I'm so happy that you are feeling better now. Thanks for another great video!
I've been waiting for you to come back
Nice video! Excited for more Mushoku Tensei analysis when the anime drops!
GOOD TO hear from you again
Great video, and I'm glad you are back and ok
Am happy your back Natalie keep up the good work
Ohhhhhhh.. I waited so many days for ur video on mushoku tensai... Please cover everything and make more of these !!!
My queen has return…… I mean Natalie (cross) Hunter has dropped a new vid
So glad to see another Vid, though sad to hear about your head. You just cannot catch a break.
Aye. Love your mushoku vid
Welcome back Nataile as usually you hit it out of the park
Glad to have back Natalie 🎉🎉
Thanks for the video, and welcome back to you and MT content.
Thank you too!
Hooray a new video!
So good to see you again, Natalie. And posting a video on one of my favorite anime? You are so awesome!
Yay, thank you!
Nice to see you back,. Hope everything is going well and there's more happy events in the future
Welcome back, Nat!!!
Love you’re vids
Welcome back!
Welcome back 🎉🎉
It's very nice to see you again, Natalie!! ❤
Ooh new video, haven't seen you in a while
Glad to see you back ...
Welcome back! Good luck with the future.
Very cute new outfit
Great video!
What i'd personally also add, is:
[SPOILER]
Elinalise's past,
Zenith's Sister,
Existance of Battle Aura,
Laplace factor,
Rudeus isn't special (aside from Laplace factor) - everyone can learn chantless magic and have large mana pool if they train magic early enough,
That all the things we learn about magic system early on is just a culturally created framework, and in reality it can do anything as long as you have enough mana, and know how to achieve desired effect.
Good picks! I haven't decided yet what I would have included that wasn't, but I've made videos already about a lot of the stuff I think is interesting, so it seemed cool to use a different iceberg. Especially since nobody else had done it in English yet!
@@NatalieXHunter You could always make your own iceberg with a help of your community, let's say around 2nd season airing.
It'd end up being a 24 hour livestream to get through what we'd come up with :D
Welcome back Natalie, i hope you're doing well, i enjoyed you video. I'm looking forward to more content and I'm glad you're making content for
Glad to see you doing a bit better, keep your morale high ! Also, awesome video, i hope we will see you more.
Great vid nat
Thank you so much!
"Series of misfortune events" continues. As everything in life this bad Luck times will pass
Man, i missed you Nat. Glad you are back!
Hey, thanks!
I'm glad you're able to create again
Great to see you back, and great content as usual. I liked the Mushoku Tensei anime a lot, but it was your videos that made love it (for all that is coming). I had to buy the blu rays (I'm a big fan of physical media) even though the whole season is in Crunchyroll, because I want to watch it in the best quality possible :)
Thanks for all the coverage of the anime and light novel
More content on my favorite show from the most soothing voice on CZcams! Let's metaphorically go!!
Welcome back
So good to hear Nat is back
Thanks!
Welcome Back!
welcome back(officially x))
Welcome back, was worried you would be gone a few more months.
First property video back and getting into Mushoku Tensei.
Nice! Also someone who really can't get into LN, so it is interesting video to me.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great video as almost always. Just can't say a videos like the Google insanity are great. And it seems ita time to hunt down some videos of yours.
Eyyyyy she's back!
You make the best MT content! And get well soon :(
Thank you!
Thanks for being considerate for those of us who didn't read the light novel 🙏 😊. I started but because life happens I didn't continue yet. So thanks 😁
I loved the video. It reminded me of how amazing it is to me now how much hype I feel towards this anime returning despite how I'd dismissed it at first as being just another trite shonen isekai that would annoy me with all of the tropes that annoy me in many run of the mill shonen series. Now I'm planned to re-watch it all before the new season starts up, so I can refresh my (terrible) memory!
And a head injury, huh? Damn, girl, you've been having a crap time of it recently, haven't you? I hope things are starting to look more up than down.
👍
Thankfully the story was a nice mix of answers and questions for me to mull over
But advice to those who want to avoid spoilers... The author has revealed/spoiled stuff in q&a blog posts (i can think of two examples)
So there's some cool insight if u go looking for those blogs (they're not the ones attached online to the web novel) but also information that i think should've been left for future stories to reveal
Yup. The true iceberg lore is in those q&a's
Good to see you back. I am trying to get through the light novel as fast as a I can while doing uni coursework. It seems i have lots of videos to finish off
Good luck with both, man!
@@NatalieXHunter thanks. A couple thousand word lab report about digestion of various probiotics, isnt fun. I would much rather be reading mushoku tensei
Yeah, I guess even Chatgpt is no good for covering your own findings ;)
@@NatalieXHunter yeah. Also I dont want to take any chances with uni plagarism systems. Oh well, guess a mushoku tensei binge will be my reward for completing
Let’s gooooo she back
Icebergs and isekai! Oh my!
I no longer get notifications from your channel, so I had to search you up to see what's going on~
Hey Nat! Welcome back, and although it's unrelated to the video (not an MT novel guy), iy would be really cool to see a character analysis of Heinkel.
Based on the limited but contrasting perspectives we've seen on him, I think he makes for a very interesting guy within the concepts of knighthood and heroism.
Hope you get better 💙
i love your videos 😄
Awwww, thank you
The wish of the Miko vs. the will of the world. Nothing but tears.
There's so much just in that one final chapter... What an ending.
Hello and welcome back!
Hello there!
Happy Return 🎉🎉🎉🎉❤
Woo! More MT content while I wait for volume 22
Welcome back.
Hello Nataline, I hope you are getting better so sorry about your accident. Please try to be careful ❤
YEEEEEEEEEEES SHE'S BACK!!! LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Awwww, thank you - believe me, I wouldn't have been gone so long under any other circumstances!
Welcome back 🎉
Thank you cute little snake!
Thanksssssssss 🐍 :3
studio bind has a really good future ahead of it. both of the things they are working on are bangers.
Can’t watch yet, am not caught up. But glad to see you back.
If you've seen the anime, it's spoiler free up until the timestamp. Otherwise, I hope you like it when you do see it!
Its very strange that future diary comes after jobless oblige because you would think that knowing future diary would naturally come first
Huh? The future diary is part of the main story. It happens long before Oblige. Oblige would not happen in the alternate timeline in the diary because most people involved are dead/never born.
@@NatalieXHunter I believe you misunderstand what I am saying. I am speaking in relation to the iceberg where in it jobless oblige is on the first layer, but future diary on the third. The iceberg should contain information from the most known to the least and my point was that knowing what happens in the future diary should naturally come first. You should agree with this because you put jobless oblige in the spoiler half of the video where all the people should have read the light novel (knowing future diary) but some would not have read jobless oblige.
Of course this isn't that serious I just thought that was strange and I'm sorry for the vagueness in the first comment
Oh, cool i love your Mushoku content happy to see this! Outta curiosity tho was there any particular reason this came out b4 the anime award vid you were talking about on twitter? No super preference either way, i just figure the further from the event the less topical it becomes.
The Crunchyroll Award video was one where I kinda recorded it unscripted, wasn't really happy with it (I rarely do unscripted stuff outside of streams so it's outside of my normal pipeline), so was going to redo it as a scripted video, then had an accident and was out of action with concussion and various other injuries... I do still want to give my thoughts on the awards but I think the moment has passed for the reaction type video I was going to make. So, I thought it was better to come back with this one, which is more in my normal format (and is a fun video to research) rather than anything unusual. I have some unusual stuff coming up, though!
@@NatalieXHunter Ok, that makes sense. Looking forward to it!
Clicked so fast, so looking forward to you making videos again, do you have a discord for your fans or anything?
Not really, I mean, there is one that someone in my community set up for me that has been expanded to be for me and Espiritu, but where I've been a mess lately I've done nothing to promote it and have no idea if anyone really uses it. We'll be doing a big revival of the Discord thing before MT S2, but for now the main place I talk to people is Twitter (though I'm on there a lot and reply to almost all public stuff on there - DMs when I have time).
that lexburner bit is just bonkers...
I know, I laughed so hard when I read what he'd actually said!
Thanks for the new video! I’m gonna rewatch dragons tail again soon and I’m always down for you to finish up, what I think, is the adventures of Rudy’s gay son who’s living his best Cheddar man lifestyle
Yes, gimme those readings. I garbled your old dragons tale readings down, so I'll take whatever I can get.
11:45 I just had the biggest smile ever when you said Aisha and Ars
Haha, I do have a whole video about it, and honestly, most people who watched it came to the same conclusion I did - it's kind of a good story lol.
I'm wishing you luck. My life has also been a disaster.
Starting last year in July when my mom, who was my best friend, passed away and funnily enough, most recently I got a concussion on the 6th of march, as well.
That was a slight one, thankfully. But it still messed with my ability to remember things and caused me to sleep a lot (along with the sprained neck I got with it in the same traffic accident).
Anyway, I can't offer any financial help because of my own world crashing down around my ears, however, I wanted you to know my best thoughts are directed at you, though I realize that doesn't mean much from a stranger on the internet.
Good luck.
nice
Let's go baybeeeee!
Oh shit NatalieXHunter! I haven’t seen ur content in a minute
Yeah... much has happened... check out my last video for the latest saga.
I really miss your videos. Hopefully everything will go well with you soon.
Happy to see you
We need more re:zero youtubers
There'll be more Re:Zero content soon, I haven't forgotten my Barusu (plus, who knows what will be announced next week ;) )
Great to have you back in action! And all you beloved slackers out there need to listen to Natalie’s Jobless Oblige and Old Dragon’s Tale readings! They are boss, and I need Natalie’s stats up for her to release the last chapters of Oblige.
Thank you! Any reading videos I do for now will be standalone stuff though, like the Re:Zero Pride IF one, because the algorithm gets annoyed when it shows part 12 of a series to your subscribers who didn't watch any other part of it and assumes the fact they don't want to randomly watch that means your content has dropped off... so the best tactic seems to be to slip them in between more popular videos so it doesn't notice. I need to rack up a good few of those right now though haha!
I might actually finish Oblige all in one video when I do feel like it won't mess me up to publish it - there's not much left and it means if I do take a hit it's only once.
@@NatalieXHunter Old Dragon’s Tale was simply magnificent. Thank you so much for reading it.
Thank you, and yeah, while Oblige is decent, Old Dragon's Tale is just brilliant, that's why I wanted to read it at all.
I do like iceberg videos!
I believe the sword Hero Ars used to defeat the Demon King is the same Godsword Orsted uses. It was created by Chaos, a dragon general, for a child in the future when he lent it to Ars
Yeah, I think that might be true too - I might do a video about that whole legend, I always forget about it.
Ooo i love icebergs
Hope you like this one! I have an AoT one on here too from last year if you like AoT.
Amazing video, wished I could watch the spoiler section though lol
Glad you liked it! I try where I can to split up the spoiler and non-spoiler stuff but yeah, most of the more interesting things are in the second half, ngl...
Oh Happy days, Natalie is back
Can't wait for season 2 to come out! I absolutely loved the Webnovel!
I missed you my beloved friend
In glad to see that you are still around and well
Thank you! I've had a pretty cursed time for a while! Glad to be back!
@@NatalieXHunter I would guess that cursed people stick together forever then
For I'm glad to be stuck with you
