After an anime adaptation for the drama-fantasy light novel Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation was announced, fans were skeptical. Various light novel anime adaptations in the past have strayed away from their source material to the point where they have become unrecognizable. So, their skepticism was understandable.

However, when Mushoku Tensei season one aired in January 2021, it took the anime community by storm. Rated as one of the best anime to air during the Winter 2021 season, part 2 of season one was confirmed not long after the anime's initial airing.

It was released in October 2021. Both parts of season one received massive support and high ratings on various anime review websites. They received an 8.37 and 8.77, respectively, on MyAnimeList.

Season one had a split release. The first part of season one mainly set the scene for the show. It followed a 34-year-old shut-in who, after trying to turn his life around and being hit by tragedy, ended up as a baby named Rudeus Greyrat in a world of fantasy and magic. He goes on exciting adventures and forms bonds with various companions as he tries to make up for his previous life.

Meanwhile, part 2 further built upon what was already happening in the show. Rudeus has acquired a student and they are both transported to the Demon Continent.

There they formed an adventure party with Ruijerd Supardia, a new companion. These three use their adventuring experience and combat skills to explore the Demon Continent and uncover new dangers that await them on their travels.
