Mushoku Tensei Season 2 Part 2’s release date has been officially confirmed, and it will start airing in 2024. In this article, we talk about everything we know about the upcoming season!
January 2021 saw the release of the first season of Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation anime, and ever since then, the fan base has been steadily growing. Despite some early controversy surrounding the series and its main character, fans from all around the world have latched onto this amazing world, its fantastic characters, and its ongoing story.
Season 1 was a massive success and spread the series all around the internet. Some of the world’s biggest anime content creators talked about it consistently, making the series even more popular than others could ever imagine.
Because of this, a second season was announced not too long after the first season wrapped up. In what seems like a trend with anime recently, mainly led by series like Attack on Titan and Jujutsu Kaisen, Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation season 2 was split into two parts.
Season 2 Part 1 aired between July 3rd and September 25th of 2023. At this time, the anime gained even more notoriety as this new addition to the story was fantastic. We saw the series jump forward a few years and enter a new stage of the protagonist’s life. Now that Part 1 has finished airing, fans eagerly await more updates on the next episodes.
Fans are at the edge of their seats, but it looks like that waiting is finally over, as we have some information on Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation Season 2 Part 2 and its possible release date!
Mushoku Tensei Season 2 Part 2 Release Date:
With the original announcement of Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation season 2 back in 2022, it was said that the series would be split into two cours.
This ensures that the series’ quality is much higher, and it also means more content for fans to consume. The season’s story doesn’t need to be squashed into only a few episodes; it has the time and space it needs to breathe. This means that another part should be just around the corner.
They are using the split cour model, meaning that rather than airing for two consecutive courses, the anime will release its second part later. From what has been announced, Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation Season 2 Part 2 is all set to air in April 2024.
An official release date hasn’t been announced, but we know which month the first episode of Part 2 drops. Now, that seems like a long wait, but it’s for the best.
Anime nowadays is spread too thin, meaning they are rushed, and the animation suffers. With the series having time to breathe and get its story across, it provides time for the animation staff to do an even better job. Hopefully, everything goes to plan, and this next season looks fantastic!
The series was also originally announced to be getting 25 episodes total, spread out across the two parts. Part 1 aired 12 episodes, meaning Season 2 Part 2 should fulfill that promise by releasing 13 episodes total to wrap up this new story.
What Happened So Far In Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation Anime?
Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation is based on a light novel by the same name. Season one covered only a tiny portion of the original story and tells the tale of Rudeus Greyrat.
Rudeus used to be a shut-in NEET who dies in a tragic accident after getting kicked out of his home but is reincarnated in a fantasy world as a baby. In his new life, he retains his memories and intellect from his previous life. Named Rudeus by his new parents, he tries to make the most of his new life in this strange world.
But apart from the memories of his past life, he also retains all his anxiety and trauma, so he has to come to terms with it too, if he wants to enjoy this second chance at life he’s received!
Along the way, he forms meaningful relationships with other characters, including his talented mage tutor, Roxy, his meek and shy friend, Sylphiette, and the rude, outspoken, and powerful Eris. As he grows, Rudeus must confront his past traumas and find his place in this new world.
Season 1 of Jobless Reincarnation mainly covers Rudeus’s early years, his training, and the challenges he faces as he comes to terms with his past and strives to become a better person in his new life.
What to Expect From Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation Season 2 Part 2?
Though we have already seen a good portion of the source material adapted onto the screen through this anime, there are still more than enough light novel pages to put to screen.
So far, in the Mushoku Tensei anime, we have seen adaptations of volumes 1 to 9. So much of the story has already been adapted, but we are moving on to volume 10 with the release of Jobless Reincarnation Season 2 Part 2.
We should see an adaptation of Mushoku Tensei’s Volume 10 to 12 in this second half, which is more than enough story to fit into a 12 to 13-episode run.
Those who have read the source material will know what comes next, but it will be a complete surprise for those fans who only watch anime. So, let’s discuss what we can expect from Jobless Reincarnation Season 2 Part 2 as we delve a little into the source material.
*** SPOILER WARNING ***
Mushoku Tensei Season 2 Part 2 will continue where Part 1 ended, adapting Volume 10 of the original light novel series. This will see the series focus on its next arc, the “Newlyweds Arc.”
Given the story we saw play out in the last set of episodes, the upcoming season will start with Rudeus and Sylphiette preparing for their wedding and life as a married couple.
The first cour of this new season adapted volumes 7 to 9, consisting of the “Mid-Level Adventurer Arc” and “University Arc.” So, Part 2 will be a massive change of pace as much more romance will surely be a part of this next season.
Though it’s not much information, as we don’t want to spoil the original light novel story, it’s exciting knowing that a new arc is coming soon. It should be much different from previous arcs, and we honestly can’t wait to see how this relationship develops in the Newlywed Arc.
