I recently watched the first two seasons of Mushoku Tensei and I found myself, to quote Tolkien, disliking it with some intensity. The show constantly treats Rudeus' creepy behavoir as a joke. Rudeus never faces any lasting consequences for his creepy behavoir. At some points, it's even treated as an endearing character trait. The show has a constant need to pander to the audience in a disgusting way and it really got on my nerves after a while.

Aside from that, it had a very cookie cutter medieval fantasy world with a boring elemental magic system. Any challenge that the characters face seems to be solved with relative ease and without much effort. (eg. They walk away from the Dragon god encounter basically unharmed making the moment lose any and all impact. The man god is also used as a convenient plot device to give the character just enough information for the plot to continue.)

Other than the music, animation and production value, I really don't see what's so great about this show.
