The popular isekai anime series Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation is marking a significant milestone as it approaches the fifth anniversary of its broadcast debut. On January 10, 2026, exactly five years will have passed since the premiere of the first episode of Season 1 on January 10, 2021. To commemorate this occasion, an official fifth anniversary project has been announced, featuring new artwork, merchandise, and a special broadcast program.
A newly drawn anniversary visual, created by Studio Bind—the animation studio behind the series—has been revealed. The illustration depicts protagonist Rudeus Greyrat alongside key characters Roxy Migurdia, Sylphiette, and Eris, each dressed in elegant outfits reflecting their respective image colors. This artwork captures the characters' growth throughout the series and serves as a centerpiece for the celebrations.
In addition, a lineup of commemorative goods utilizing the new visual will go on sale starting January 23, 2026, through the official KADOKAWA store. Items include acrylic stand figures, trading acrylic keyholders, B2 tapestries, and more. Purchasers spending 2,200 yen (tax included) or more will receive a random mini bromide from a set of four designs as a special bonus.
Further highlighting the anniversary, a live special program titled "Anime Mushoku Tensei 5th Anniversary Special ~We'll Keep Giving It Our All From Here On Too~" is scheduled to air on ABEMA's anime channel on January 10, 2026, at 7:30 p.m. JST. The broadcast will feature voice actors Yumi Uchiyama (Rudeus Greyrat), Tomokazu Sugita (the previous life's man), Koharu Koharu (Roxy Migurdia), Ai Kayano (Sylphiette), and Ai Kakuma (Eris Boreas Greyrat). The program will reflect on the series' journey over the past five years, include a special message from a mystery guest, and potentially reveal new information related to the anime.
When is Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation Season 3 coming?
With the third season already confirmed and slated for broadcast in 2026, anticipation continues to build. While an exact premiere date has not been finalized in the latest announcements, reports from production and financial updates point to a potential start in April 2026. The season will continue adapting the light novel series, exploring further adventures in Rudeus's life, including key events in Sharia and encounters with major figures like Perugius Dola.
When a 34-year-old underachiever gets run over by a truck, his story doesn't end there. Reincarnated in a new world as an infant, Rudy will seize every opportunity to live the life he's always wanted. Armed with new friends, some freshly acquired magical abilities, and the courage to do the things he's always dreamed of, he's embarking on an epic adventure—with all of his past experience intact!
