About 40 to 50 days ago I reviewed the anime, and it really interested me so I picked up the light novel from the start. Thank to those who recommended me to read it from the start!

I read about a little more than half a volume per day, with it 40 or so days of my life got sucked out from this adventure, after finishing it I felt like waking up from a long dream. Reading such a long series for the first time showed me just how time consuming reading can be, even more so than gaming.

Let me tel

40〜50日前にアニメの感想書いたんだけど、めっちゃハマっちゃってライトノベルを1巻から読み始めたんだよね。最初から読めって勧めてくれた人たちありがとう！

1日でだいたい半巻以上読んでたから、約40日間がこの冒険に吸い込まれてた感じ。読み終わったら長い夢から覚めたみたいな気分だったよ。こんな長シリーズを読むの初めてだったけど、読書ってゲーム以上に時間溶けるんだなって実感したわw

Kinda agree. I too felt that things felt rushed and dull closer to the end. It felt like mission after mission, whereas I kinda preferred to have more SOL part of things in between. The last volumes were particularly long because there was no pause from Kalman III to Badi. 

That aside, the best thing about reading after the anime is that it’s easy to visualise the scenes!

まあ同意。終盤は駆け足で退屈に感じたわ。ミッションの連続で、もっと日常パートが欲しかった。カールマン3世からバディまでノンストップで、最後の巻は特に長く感じた。

If you’re not quite satisfied there is a lot of side-stories. I highly recommend reading Old Dragon’s Tale now that you’ve finished the LN; it’s like a prequel for Mushoku Tensei and the amount of lore it adds is truly insane — It also explains why Orsted and Hitogami are mortal enemies, AND who Laplace is because ODT is written from his point of view.
物足りなきゃサイドストーリーいっぱいあるよ。小説読み終えたら『Old Dragon’s Tale』超おすすめ。無職転生の前日譚で、設定追加がヤバい — オルステッドと人神が不倶戴天の敵な理由や、ラ

>This also made me hate the Man-God character, he is stupid and short sighted while having the ability to see into future. I also over estimated how cunning he was gonna be, remember he said no one could possibly defeat Orsted? And then he just sends Rudeus to fight him knowing(surely he knows) the possibility that he can ally with Orsted? On the other hand he sabotages his own disciples. Why? I understand he does this to Rudeus because his off spring directly threatens him, but why everyone
>これで人神キャラも嫌いになった。未来見えるくせに頭悪くて目先しか見てない。もっと狡猾かと予想してたのに、誰もオルステッドに勝てないって言ってたよね？なのにルーデウスを戦わせに送り込む（当然知ってるだろ）あ

About your criticisms About Laplace; the author will be doing a sequel series at some point I the future, and theoretically Laplace will be a big part of the plot in that. I like to think of it kind of like The Hobbit and Lord of the Rings. With Mushoku Tensei being the Hobbit, and the eventual sequel series being Lord of the Rings.

He said he’ll be starting the new series after the anime is over and when he is done with his interim series Orc Eroica.

ラプラスへの批判についてだけど、作者はいずれ続編やる予定で、理論上ラプラスはその中で重要な役割を果たすはず。『ホビット』と『ロード・オブ・ザ・リング』みたいな関係だと思ってる。無職転生がホビットで、続編が

Some of your concerns were left like that because those were plot points for the *sequel”, for example, the asura arc was supposed to have way more complex politics but because asura will be important in the sequel. For martial arts, there will be a fourth sword style so they will probably explore the sword styles better., not to mention we are getting new spear users.

The dragon -human god conflict is better explained in the web novel old dragon tale, we also see more attack techniques in subj

気になる点が残ってるのは、それらが「続編」の伏線だから。例えばアスラ編はもっと複雑な政治劇になる予定だったけど、アスラは続編で重要になるから。武術についても第四の剣術が出てきて、そっちで掘り下げるかも

I can say that I mostly agree with you. Reading the entirety of MT over 4 months (before ever touching the anime) felt like an adventure I never experienced before. I am very happy that you liked it and that this countless hours were well invested.

The only thing I have to say is that I don’t know if you completely understood what word building really is because the things you mentioned are more lore than actual world building.
Especially because I think that MTs world building is by far its gr

ほぼ同意だわ。4ヶ月かけてMT全巻読んだ（アニメ見る前）のは、他にない冒険体験だった。君が気に入ってくれて、この膨大な時間が無駄じゃなかったって思えて超嬉しい。

Im going to respond in spanish cuz is my main language so feel free to translate but u can answer in english.

Me alegro mucho que te haya gustado la Novela Ligera de MT, yo también la he leído un par de veces y me atrapó esta historia maravillosa. Creo que las cosas que destacas son muy acertadas:
– La escritura es genial y en general muy fácil de seguir. El punto de vista de Rudeus frente al mundo te hace empatizar mucho con la visión y los sentimientos que va desarrollando el personaje, ade

You should read “old dragons tale” or listen to it on YouTube I think it’ll solve some of your misgivings and also made me personally question that part about good v evil a little bit. I agree the ending felt kinda rushed but regardless I still love the story as a whole. Loved reading your review!
『Old Dragon’s Tale』読むかYouTubeで聴くべき。不満点のいくつか解消されるし、善悪の部分も個人的に考えさせられた。確かに終盤は駆け足感あったけど、全体としてはやっぱり愛してる話だわ。レビュー楽しく読んだ！

“Time Travel and create inconsistency”. Lol

Did you really just took Old Rudeus coming to our Rudeus as “time travel inconsistency”? Or you simply don’t understand the concept of “Time Branches”?

If this is “time travel inconsistency”, Orsted has also “time travelled” a lot of time and created a lot of “inconsistency ” in the “actual timeline”.

The part about Old Rudeus’ story isn’t to create a “Terminator close time loop” but to narrate a different time branch, and since Old Rudeus under

膨大な物語を消化した後の充実感と、残された伏線への期待が交錯する、熱い読後感の共有スレだったわ。
