Correct that's the full name of the anime, Mushoku Tensei jobless reincarnation, the bleach guy mostly gets it as it's a man's mind trapped in a younger body so him being a kid obsessed with women's panties will have everyone on the outside going 'wtf is wrong with this kid?' but as he gets older and his body 'catches up' with his mind he actually isn't that much of a pervert anymore, just highly active given he has WIVES.
If anything I'd say he's stunted in his sexual development compared to other characters for a while, when Eris slept with him, that was his first time IN BOTH lives, her disappearing the next day after really damaged him psychologically and took accidentally finding Sylphy to mend (as he got ED as a result). Her on the other hand had no clue at the damage her actions caused.
As for pedophilia accusations, didn't get that in the story, he only had the panties of the maid and Roxy who were both a lot older than him, he wasn't interested in Sylphy when he was younger (he actually though she was a boy when the incident happened) and only when she got older was he interested, same with Eris. He showed no interest in his half sister on the maid's side despite her thinking her brother was a pervert. Rudus is different from Paul because it took the transportation crisis to shake him from being a pervert, Rudus had his previous memories keeping him an observer unless given explicit permission.
He's a pedophile. In the anime, it's a blink and you miss it moment, but the second episode shows him getting caught jerking off to kid porn while he misses his parents funeral, and that directly corresponds to him being thrown out of the house so violently and why he was suicidal.
In the novel it was originally that he was watching hidden video porn he made of his niece, but the author thought that was too far, and it was later edited to generic kiddie porn.
That said, the entire story is that he goes from the lowest of the low with zero redeeming features, to eventually become a much better person.
Did some digging and best I can find is that was true in the webnovel but not the light novel which is what the anime is based on so he was not a pedophile in the modern incarnation, it was changed to just regular porn. The scene in anime shows a leg of someone in a bathroom.
This happens a lot with Webnovels being more raw and eye-catching but then being more refined when a light novel is made. Look at Overlord and the difference in Webnovel and Light Novel in Arche
