Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation follows a reborn shut-in named Rudeus who vows to live his second life without regrets. Split across cours and seasons, this guide lays out the correct order to follow his journey.
Widely praised as a genre-defining isekai, Mushoku Tensei is celebrated for its stunning animation and its emotionally complex coming-of-age story. Based on Rifujin na Magonote's light novels, the anime follows Rudeus Greyrat from infancy through his adventures across a vibrant magical world. Its release across split cours can be confusing, so here is how everything fits together.
π Release Order
Release order follows Rudeus's life in a clean, linear progression, cour by cour.
- Mushoku Tensei Season 1 Part 1 (2021)
- Mushoku Tensei Season 1 Part 2 (2021)
- Mushoku Tensei Season 2 Part 1 (2023)
- Mushoku Tensei Season 2 Part 2 (2024)
Each season is split into two cours, but they tell one continuous story β think of them as halves of the same season rather than separate entries.
π Story Chronology
Because the anime adapts the novels in order, the chronological order is identical to the release order.
- Mushoku Tensei Season 1 Part 1 (2021)
- Mushoku Tensei Season 1 Part 2 (2021)
- Mushoku Tensei Season 2 Part 1 (2023)
- Mushoku Tensei Season 2 Part 2 (2024)
Which Order Should You Choose?
Simply watch the seasons in order, treating each pair of cours as a complete season. Start with Season 1 Part 1 to meet Rudeus and follow his journey after his reincarnation. Because release and story order are the same, there is no confusion β just settle in for one of the most acclaimed isekai stories out there.
