Plot
An unnamed, 34-year-old Japanese NEET is evicted from his home following his parents' death. Upon some self-introspection, he concludes that his life was ultimately pointless. He intercepts a speeding truck heading towards a group of teenagers in an attempt to do something meaningful for once in his life and manages to pull one of them out of harm's way before dying.
Awakening in a baby's body, he realizes he has been reincarnated in a world of sword and sorcery. He resolves to become successful in his new life, discarding his past identity for his new life as Rudeus Greyrat. Due to his genetic factor and early training, Rudeus becomes highly skilled at magic. During his childhood, he becomes a student of Roxy Migurdia, a friend to Sylphiette, and a teacher to Eris Boreas Greyrat. Shortly after, a teleportation catastrophe scatters many people worldwide, and Rudeus resolves to escort Eris home. During his journey, Rudeus receives advice from the mysterious Human-God and befriends Ruijerd Supardia. Successfully escorting Eris home, a misunderstanding with her leaves Rudeus heartbroken.
Two years later, the incident with Eris has made Rudeus impotent. He enrolls in Ronoa Magic University under the Human-God's advice to cure himself. There, he is reunited with Sylphiette, who heals his impotence, and the two are wedded shortly after. Rudeus receives a request to join his father's quest to save his mother and ignore the Human-god's advice. He reunited and developed a romantic relationship with Roxy during the adventure and takes her as his second wife. He is then visited by a dying future version of himself, warning him the Human-God will cause the deaths of everyone he cares about. To appease the Human-God, Rudeus attempts to kill one of his enemies, a warrior named Orsted but fails; instead, Rudeus offers his allegiance to Orsted in exchange for his family's protection. Shortly after, Rudeus takes Eris as his third wife.
The series continues episodically with a series of story arcs based around Rudeus work with Orsted to ensure the Human-God's precise demise, as well as his daily life and growing family. After a large scale attack on Rudeus' life fails, the Human God gives up on his plans against him, opting to scheme against Rudeus's descendants. Rudeus lives the rest of his life peacefully before his natural death at the age of 74.

Media
Web novel and light novel
Rifujin na Magonote published his work on the online web novel website, Shōsetsuka ni Narō (Shortened to Syosetu); the first chapter was uploaded on November 22, 2012.[9] In November 2013, the author announced his work was to be released as a light novel under Media Factory's MF Books imprint; regardless, the author stated his intentions to continue publishing his chapters online.[10] The illustrator for the light novel is a Pixiv user called SiroTaka.[11] Seven Seas Entertainment has licensed the light novels for publication in North America.[12]
After publishing the first parts of his work, Rifujin wrote that he intended the series to last at least a hundred chapters.[13] Due to criticism towards his work, Rifujin considered ending the series prematurely, but was inspired to continue when his work reached the first place on Syosetu's daily rankings.[13][14] Originally, the story arc where Rudeus' reunites with Aisha was supposed to be completely different from the published work.[15] The author intended to have Lilia die off-screen, and Aisha to be hiding under a different identity. However, he found Lilia's death anti-climatic and decided against it; thus, he had to rewrite the story arc to have her survival and lack of contact make sense. Rifujin stated the story arc might be bizarre due to the changes but expresses no regrets in his decision; he noted Lilia's survival made him reconsider Zenith's condition in the story.[15]
Rifujin intends on creating a sequel to the web novel series that's based in the Six-Sided Universe.[3] On January 15, 2021, the author stated that he plans to finish the Orc Hero web novel first. He also suffers from health problems and plans on spending time healing before starting the new work.[16]

Manga
In the May 2014 issue of Monthly Comic Flapper, it was announced that the manga adaptation of Mushoku Tensei by Yuka Fujikawa would premiere in the June issue;[52][53] though Yuka is the author of the manga series, character designs are credited to SiroTaka.[54] Media Works collected the individual chapters into tankōbon volumes; the first volume was released in October 2014.[54] In January 2015, Seven Seas Entertainment announced its licensing of the manga series for localization in North America under the title Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation.[55]
Volumes
Anime
On March 15, 2019, the official website of MF Books announced that an anime adaptation project of Mushoku Tensei would be produced.[82] The anime was later announced on October 18, 2019 to be a television series, which is directed by Manabu Okamoto and animated by Studio Bind, with Kazutaka Sugiyama designing the characters, and Yoshiaki Fujisawa composing the music. Egg Firm is credited for production.[83] The series was originally scheduled to premiere in 2020,[84] but it was delayed until January 11, 2021.[5][8][c]
The opening theme song is "The Traveler's Song" (旅人の唄, "Tabibito no Uta"), while the ending theme song is "Only" (オンリー, "Onrī"), both performed by Yuiko Ōhara.[85] Funimation licensed the series and is streaming it on its website in North America, Mexico, Brazil and the British Isles, in Europe through Wakanim, and in Australia and New Zealand through AnimeLab.[86] Muse Communication has licensed the series in Southeast Asia and South Asia and is streaming it on their Muse Asia YouTube channel, on iQIYI and Bilibili in Southeast Asia.[87]
On January 31, 2021, Egg Firm CEO and Mushoku Tensei Chief Producer Nobuhiro Osawa, who has previously produced Sword Art Online and Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon?, stated that he built the "new production studio for this work".[3] In October 2019, Egg Firm explained their rationale for "setting up a separate studio from the existing WHITE FOX studio", stating they "needed a system that would allow us to move forward with the project in a continuous, long-term, and systematic manner" so they "will be able to concentrate more on the production of Mushoku Tensei: Isekai Ittara Honki Dasu." Egg Firm noted that “Studio Bind will use this work [Mushoku Tensei] as a launchpad for its full-scale animation production business.”[3]
