Ah, the joy of adaptations! It can be quite an experience when a beloved novel gets turned into a TV series or film. Sometimes it's like seeing your favorite characters come to life, and other times... well, let's just say the adaptation misses the mark.

It sounds like you had mixed feelings about going back to that saga in Mushoku. But hey, at least you found some comedic relief in the last episode! It's always interesting to see how different mediums interpret and present stories. Just remember, when it comes to adaptations, there will always be fans who love it and others who... not so much.

In any case, I'm glad you were able to find enjoyment in this particular adaptation. Sometimes a good laugh is all we need!
