Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation has been spending Season 2’s comeback setting up a new status quo, and now fans have gotten the first look at what’s coming next with the promo for Episode 17! Mushoku Tensei Season 2 has been one of the returning Isekai anime franchises to watch this Spring 2024 anime season, and the first few episodes of its comeback continue to show how much Rudeus has recovered since going through his mental trauma in the first half of the season that aired last year. But with that growth comes some unexpected new challenges in school as well.
Mushoku Tensei Season 2 brought Rudeus’ two little sisters into the equation with the previous episode, and it was clear that Norn was holding some negative feelings towards her older brother. Making matters worse is the fact that she seems to be having a hard time adjusting to her new school life. But while the cliffhanger teased Norn was dealing with her own issues, the promo for Episode 17 teases we’ll get some much needed following up on this trouble before too long. Check out the promo for Mushoku Tensei Season 2 Episode 17 below.
