the answer is simple - They just see things at the surface level.

I was checking twitter while the majority was praising for showing Rudeus's suffering realistically,

but the one who hating and shitting on it had one thing in common and that was 

" OOO so rudeus tried sex and bcz he cant get it up he is committing suicide ....hahaha so childish ,who tf kill himself over sex"  etc

You can't win with these people, of they showed him depressed for the entire year he was there over 13 episodes that same person would say the show was boring and had no progression. I think depression is shown very realistically here, with the fake smiles and immediate relapse when things go wrong yet again. We are probarbly missing out on a lot of dialog and inner thoughts from the novels, but I like the season so far.

Part of his depression is from constant bullying in his former life. With that he truly don't know how to deal with it. Then suddenly being on a emotional high in his new life for a while and then have a sudden crash of one thing after another. Fearing losing everything again and being a zero again. So yeah he would consider taking his own life. Maybe I'm reading to much into it. That's my opinion of it.

Honestly, the book does a better job of portraying his feelings.  You really understand what is happening with him.  You got to remember that Eris was the first woman to ever accept him, counting everything that occurred in his previous life.  This guy is psychology damaged and the one woman he trusted, broke that trust.

I don’t know how people are thinking he got over his depression with Eris in half a episode because he clearly fucking didn’t. He recognises that he needs to move past it that he has more amazing things out there, move on but just because he knows that doesn’t mean he’s automatically moved on from it. That’s not how the brain works. It takes time. After the episode where he threw Eris hair in the fire he’s better but still feeling down. He’s trying but it’s easier said then done. He couldn’t get it up because of his depression inflicted by Eris and what he was hoping could be used as a stepping stone to move past that trauma only built upon it and made it worse. He didn’t get over his trauma with Eris and got depressed again solely because of the situation with Sara. It all these things combined building upon each other that’s making his mental state a whole lot worse.

You took an obvious bait, but there are indeed people who have that kind of mentality.
They wouldn't understand the messaging of the show unless it is hamfisted into their face. That's why we have "top" review in which author tries to argue in their head and presents controversial aspect as if it is the only thing that there is in this show and makes judgement entirely base on it.
Anime should be gatekeeped hard.

Another reason why it’s hard to adopt LNs properly. Only those of us who’ve read it really understand the depths of Rudeus’ psychological trauma. It’s hard to portray that in an anime, although I would say they’re doing a decently good job about it. Haters gonna hate; ignore them and enjoy the show.

It's one of my favourites. I would be more biased towards it than Mushoku Tensei to be honest. But Mushoku Tensei has a different feel to it so I can't really compare them together.
However, you could make a point for the Shounen fans, or to be more specific, AoT fans. You already see them rate bombing other top tier anime for them to surpass. Some weird devotion.

You're definitely ignoring the majority of generic isekai. 

the majority of any medium or genre will always be generic, the majority of what you consume is not gonna be 10/10 or 1/10, and they mostly have the same idea with a different tweak

I actually disagree. They managed to convey it pretty good, but they did expect the audience to use a little bit of imagination to reach the conclusion from implications and other cues. The fact, that they didn't hamfisted it doesn't make it worse. Quite opposite, actually. But since haters are stupid, they wouldn't understand the obvious.

lol Rudeus did what that guy said he should have done. He let everyone know he was looking for his mother as far as i remember, you can even see the adventurers in S2 say something about it to him even though he isnt aquainted with them. People like that guy are the ones who are braindead, they didnt even pay attention to the entire plan he had when going there lmfao

Even the biggest Mushoku Tensei twerkers can at least admit that this week's episode was tacky AF. Rudeus trying to kill himself at the end there actually made me laugh because I thought the episode could not get any more cliched.

I was checking twitter while the majority was praising for showing Rudeus's suffering realistically,
It's not that people have a problem with Rudeus' suffering shown in a "realistic" manner, it's that people(I) can't stand how it is being shown, basically in the form of a tropey, generic harem-esque way. Which is both uninteresting and for lack of a better word... cringe. It's not hard to make out that Rudeus isn't over Eris. That shit has been hammered into our heads since episode one. Just the way Rudeus' grief is being portrayed especially in this episode is just hard to take seriously.

I never said Mushoku Tensei overall is generic, I'm just saying the third episode itself contained a lot of generic elements and tropes. There's nothing interesting to me about a guy trying to get over his ex by getting drunk and attempting to sleep with another girl but surprise surprise! his thing doesn't work! Now he gets into a drunken fight in a bar and the dude he gets in a fight with hooks him up with another girl and then the episode ends with Rudeus saying shit about the first girl he tried to hook up with and surprise surprise! She's right behind him! Idk that this episode succeeds much in showing how Rudeus is suffering, it's just the one-off Mushoku Tensei episode you see in every entry of the series where the author dives into mind-numbingly boring and trivial matters.

And I scored Season 1 Parts 1 and 2 an 8 and 7 respectively, so I haven't reached the point of dropping the series yet.

People who are REALLY depressed think about kill themselvs for absolutely any thing. The majority of people never got depressed, they only got sad and think it was depression, that's why you don't think it's accurate.

Holy shit, I could feel my braincells dying from reading those comments.
The arrogance, toxicity and Dunning Kruger effect is palatable. The sad part is that there are a lot of such peiple here on this MAL forums. And him still calling Rudeus a pedo, while he himself has a loli profile picture is is a cherry on top, though I'd think it might be a projection.

In my opinion, the main issue is proably, that such a big turn of events seems to be disliked in the Anime world. Season 1 was more about innocence, falling in love and adventuring. The adult-side was rather a byproduct in Season one. While the adult-part took a bigger role in season 2. It feels kind of random, different and especially unexpected from what we are used to in Animes. That's how I felt.

That said, turning the next Arc into a School/Academy Arc, after what happened in season 1, kind of felt wrong. It was unexpected, that life for the MC would calm down fast enough, to be able to put him into a School-Arc.

But at the same time, it could be just a bad adaption. I had a similar situation with the 2nd season of the Anime "DanMachi". It felt rushed and the pacing didn't feel right, while the LightNovel felt very natural and good, despite of the setting was suddenly located in the Red Light District.

Possibly, the emphasis on certain things caused by the 2nd Season of Mushoku Tensei was stronger, than you would have had when reading the LightNovel.

Let's go back to "such a big turn of events seems to be disliked in the Anime world". But looking at this more detailed, the Anime actually is pretty realistic. What do most people do when they are depressed or in bad situations? They try to distract themselves. The most popular distraction is to be intimate for most people in most of our real world's cultures and societies. It was/is not uncommon, that people today easily start 'relationships'. And when it doesn't work, most people in this time, don't seem to have a problem with just breaking up and looking for a new parter, probably mainly just to be able to intimate again. Not sure how you see this, but as I could tell, it is definitely not a rare act, that most people in our time are easy-going enough to switch their boy- or girlfriends very often. And sadly cheating isn't a rare thing either in our time, as well as the concept of one-night-stands and friends-with-benefits. So, in this case, the 2nd season of this Anime is rather realistic. And another really important point is: The MC is in an age, where his body should be in puberty. Yes, we know his soul is of a middle-aged man. But that doesn't mean he can avoid the natural body reactions of puberty. And that said, I think when watching this Anime, we always tend to forget, that this is an Isekai and his sould IS really of a middle-aged man from the real-world.


Exactly that's why I said, this is usually disliked in the Anime world. Based on season 1, we expected the continuation of innocent adventure. We expected it to be mostly predictable, like any other Anime is. But the 2nd season destroyed the predictability, by making the behaviour and thoughts of the MC more real-world like, and not even complex.

I mean yea, the ED crap was freaking stupid dude. I actually enjoyed the season up until that moment, because this is just another case of the writer throwing in stupid bullshit instead of sticking with with the themes and character arcs from the past season that made rudeus depressed in the first place. instead, the writer decided to make his erectile dysfunction an unironic conflict in this season.

When people get made at mushoku's horniness, its not because they dont like horniness, its that they dont like bad writing that spoils a decent show.

@nishant0 There's not enough hardcore fans of MT in the whole world to make it that popular and highly rated. Stop inhaling that sweet copium that much.

@VivavideoUser2x Themes and character of first season are related to age and mental state of that time span. It is not a shonen where MC is the same age in season 67. Some cry about lack of development, other cry about too drastic changes and progression. Honestly, anime watchers are the worst.

If you wanna talk about ratings, this part is rated low by quite margin compared to previous part and this just shows that the quality of writing has fallen which makes it feel less interesting. This is by far the worst part of MT, I should have dropped it when that ED thing happened.

@al_vl Well go figure, it turns out many people dislike MT for many different reasons. It's almost like every anime watcher does not think the same way. Also, who said anything about his mental state or age, I'm talking about the plots disregarding Rudeus' relationships with others to have a plotpoint where his peen cannot get hard. And you think I'm wrong for deciding to watch the anime in the first place. Get over yourself.

@VivavideoUser2x I think it's not wrong to have preferences. But hating on plot point that is completely reasonable in given circumstances, grounded in science, fitting character mentality and development needs, is the same as to admit that you don't understand what are you talking about and just want to present "you problem" as "show problem".

The story is about MC trying to dig himself out of the mental ditch his previous life buried him in. How long, painful and nasty this process is. And how poorly MC equipped to withstand the challenge of said task. It is not about aDvEnTuRe, dragons and magic. Setting is just a fluff.

As for the ED specifically, it is one of the most common side-effects of a depression for a male. Not explore this topic on an example of hypersexual character would be a crime for a good character drama. It is a challenge for any male and twice as challenge for character like Rudeus Greyrat. Don't see what's stupid about that plot decision. It is serious topic, novel to the medium and refreshing in general. Can't know what's exactly your problem with the topic, but pretty sure that show makes perfect sense the way it built.
