Synopsis

On the eve of being drafted as a pro soccer player, Noel Miller was hit by a drunk driver and became paralyzed from the waist down. Falling into a deep depression and believing himself to be a financial burden to his family, Noel goes to kill himself. However, he died after pushing away a boy from a speeding truck and thus reincarnated as Rudeus Greyrat.

Now with a body that could walk and run as well as the prospect of learning magic and swordsmanship, Rudeus Greyrat is resolved to become the greatest Magic Swordsman in the world.

Author's notes: Loved Mushoku Tensei, hated the main character. Wanted to write a story with the great world building of MT but with a better main character, that while also possessing his own set of flaws, is at least not a perverted horndog who lusts over the body of children.

MC is more mature and charismatic than original MC, but still has his moments of childishness. He is also more focused on swordsmanship and martial arts than magic.

People who keep asking if it's a harem: I don't know yet. Confirmed pairing Eris. Anyone else, I am undecided.

Well, at the age of 5, he is already stronger than 70% of the creatures in the world of mushoku tensei. The pace of development is too high, he invented and recreated his own fencing school... Of course, I understand that most fanfiction is "wish fulfillment", but at least for decency, you can write a story where the main character really tries to gain strength and makes real efforts for this (this claim is absolutely to all fanfiction on the webnovel site). The characters and the surrounding world are more or less alive, although only a few characters were shown. The prospect of the development of this fan fiction is present, so I advise the author to suspend the rapid development of the main character, otherwise by chapter 20 he will become a god of sword and magic. It is also necessary to normally show difficulties on the way to obtaining power, and not to sharply suppress it, as some authors like, without really explaining anything. I hope that this fan fiction will be able to overcome the "dead lane" in the form of the "big bang" story arc, because I have not seen a single fan fiction that could pass through this arch. P.S. I know that it is not worth evaluating any work with so many chapters, and I don't care, consider this as a kind of advice to the author.

I have not read anything yet but just for the synopsis you have my 5. The only thing is that what I wish for is a more mature MC but also that knows a bit about this world of anime ... not like every detail but for example a guy who knows de first season of this anime ( not even a manga/light novel fan ), but enough info so he doesn't let his mother be stuck in a fking ice pick for years for her to die as a mindless zombie( trapped in his body )..... I hate so much Rudeus, I really wish him no luck nor happines, he never deserve it nor he worked enough for it. Also the main reason why I hate him is his personality( is disgusting ) , he doesn't act like any proper human being nor he reacts the way he should....

This fanfic is great so far, but it's also sticking pretty close to canon, including slightly rehashing some canon events pretty much word for word. The few changes there are compared to canon show potential though.

I don't mean to offend or degrade your work. This story was interesting at first but I can summarize this as a rehash of canon with a more decent mc. The grammar is very good though. Keep up the good work.

Pretty good! The writing style is a bit overdone for me and seems to lean a bit too much towards hammy parody for my tastes, but it's pretty good in spite of that. I cringe a bit when I read it, but that's my personal taste, and I'm sure there are people who like that sort of writing style. Not personally for me, but I can appreciate it for what it is. Ah, but if I had to describe it, I would say that it definitely reads more like a Chinese web novel than a proper written novel, so don't go in expecting the latter. The characterization isn't the best, but they roughly follow along with how the characters are in the story (with the exception of Rudy, of course). I'm sure that will improve as the story progresses and the author gets more comfortable with each character's voice though. It's interesting to see how this Rudy leans into the child genius route instead of trying to hide it. I do wish that there were more deeper explanations on how he was able to pick things up instead of handwaving it as just being a genius, but that's not the point of the story, so it's fine. I personally don't think that Rudy would be able to improve so rapidly in terms of physique and sword techniques due to the fact that his particular Laplace factor prevents him from accumulating the Battle Aura needed to perform some of the higher level ones, but I'll take it as a given that this Rudy just has that nerf removed. In terms of plot, the broad strokes are the usual sequence up until he leaves home. Childhood magic training, meeting Roxy and learning magic... etc. There's not too much new in here. Rudy learns to hunt and interacts with the villagers a bit more, and he also fights some monsters to test out his powers, but it isn't too significant. The reactions of everyone to Rudy's talent is kind of funny though. I do wish that magic wasn't handwaved as much... And, er, that the author knew a bit more of what he was talking about when he tried to bring scientific explanations into things, but I understand the limitations of that. Just don't expect perfectly accurate rationale behind how some things work. Seeing Rudy becoming a magic swordsman is super interesting though. But it seems like the author is eager to get to the meat of the story since a good portion of the intro reads more like a log than events unfolding. Than again, it's similar to that in the original, so it could just be mimicry of the source. Fight scenes are a mixed bag though. There are great parts that are a blow by blow exchange, but then there are other parts that are just summed up and skipped over. One part of the story that does bother me a bit though is how everyone is stunned into silence by Rudy's magical sword style. I get that it's amazing already, and I get that it would amaze other people but reading about people being impressed over and over again gets a bit dull. Right now (As of Chapter 26) we're just starting to really change things up. Instead of teaching Eris math and normal things, since Rudy becomes Ghyslaine's student, he gets rolled in as a magic tutor/bodyguard. It's an interesting change, and I'm curious to see where it ends up.

I am disappointed, another high-quality fan fiction has been abandoned indefinitely. The author's account is not active. You can list the reasons for his silence endlessly, but this will not change the fact that the fan fiction was abandoned.

Great story first of all, binge it on one day and I love the overall direction of where the story is going. Rudy is not a pedophile like the original, infact he takes some qualities of 'masochist'(concerning) and a chad.

So far this story features a far more confident and socially adept Rudeus, which is extremely appreciated, as well as avoiding demonizing certain characters that many other stories tend to bash on. A little slower paced, but if the update speed continues, that's fine.

I have read till 15 chapters and I like it so far....The pace is good and English is also perfect for me...The plot is not too original but I guess thats not too much of a problem because the little changes are intresting... But I have one question?? Author what did you do about Hitogami...I am an anime watcher and I don't really like the fact that the Rudeus is just some pawn for the God...So I was wondering if MC is the same or is he something Hitogami never intended...

I have always wanted to read a fanfic of this franchise. You have also eliminated what I found distasteful from the original MC, and I hope you continue to do so. This has major potential, I hope you continue being as motivated. Cheers.
