Jobless Reincarnation Anime Leave Off In The Light Novel?

While Jobless Reincarnation has its problems threaten to implode Twitter, the series does have some wonderful world building and is supported by great animation. It has the potential to be a real powerhouse of an isekai if not for the Twitter-imploding events. It’s a shame that I am too old to not find the sex stuff very uncomfortable.
