The anime is based on the MF Books isekai light novel series written by Rifujin na Magonote and illustrated by Shirotaka. Seven Seas describes the series as:
Kicked out by his family and wandering the streets, an unemployed 34-year-old shut-in thinks he’s hit rock-bottom—just as he’s hit and killed by a speeding truck! Awakening to find himself reborn as an infant in a world of swords and sorcery, but with the memories of his first life intact, Rudeus Greyrat is determined not to repeat his past mistakes. He’s going to make the most of this reincarnation as he sets off on the adventure of a second lifetime!
Mushoku Tensei began in 2012 as a Shousetsuka ni Narou web novel. The light novel series ran from 2014 to 2022 with 26 volumes and has inspired a manga adaptation and multiple spin-offs.
