Is Mushoku Tensei worth watching despite its controversial elements?
Mushoku Tensei is one of the most acclaimed isekai for its world-building, character development, and emotional depth — but it contains significant fanservice and a protagonist whose past-life behaviour is depicted critically but still shown in detail. Viewers should be aware of this before starting. The story itself is regarded as one of the genre's best.
