Volume 20 is mostly an intermezzo between two arcs. It rushes through some aspects of Rudeus' family life while setting up things for the next arc near the end. The cliff hanger ending is a bit of a disservice as well, although we at least get the next volume soon. It was an okay read, but nothing special.

[Carol · Rating 3 out of 5]

Another intermezzo book. After the fight in Shirone we get more glimpses of tue life Rudeus has built, we see him have a few moments of peace while the family is growing and his friends keep graduating. It’s a nice quiet book, and looks like things will pick up again for the next one.

3.5 maybe
Nothing that interesting happens in this volume but the next volume seems like it would be a lot better.

Volumen 20

Un volumen pequeño de transición, con pequeños avances a la historia, preparación para el siguiente volumen, relaciones y poco más, no es malo, es entretenido y se agradece que no haya un relleno de algo que no conoces o no interese como lector.

[Oscar Trejo · Rating 4 out of 5]

Volumen de transición, a estas alturas de la historia todos sabemos que Mushoku Tensei es el tipo de obra que intercala momentos de tensión y acción con otros mucho más tranquilos donde únicamente leemos sobre el día a día cotidiano principalmente de la familia Greyrat, este volumen es justo de esa segunda categoría, lo normal considerando que venimos de la guerra civil en Shirone en el volumen pasado, sin embargo eso no significa que sea malo o aburrido, para nada, estos volúmenes son valiosos para el desarrollo de los personajes y la construcción del mundo que tanto alabamos en mushoku tensei, además de que se ponen las bases de lo que va a ser próximo gran conflicto en la historia, la pelea interna en Milis por la sucesión al trono papal y el conflicto con la casa Latria, el próximo volumen viene intenso.

this book is the defintion of a nothing burger. I think by this point I find that I dont give a shit about most of the conflicts happening. I feel like they dont build into anything meeningfull and this book especially just felt like filler. I mean setting up a mercenary companies so important that he litterally sets up everything off screen, but the main focus of this book is getting the rights to set one up. Boring as fuck. My faviorte part was nina's chapter just like in whatever book she showed up in the school arc. I wish there were more chapters that show cased rudeus from outside of his persepective. Other than that I struggle to find anything worth talking about. It wasn't straight up bad it was just boring.

WN - 3.5 on first read. This novel was a little bit of a resting spot between major arcs. There was some good build up for what seems to be just across the horizon, lots of interesting subplots building in the background for a, hopefully, masteful conclusion. While the previous arc focused on Zenoba and his family, this one seems to be following Cliff and his priestly family. I enjoy the slice of life mushoku novels like this, but the previous arc was so impressive that this felt a little too intermediate I guess. The inclusion of Zeniths mom was a cool expansion of the Rudeus family. Can't wait to see what comes next.

Cerita di bab2 awal sebenernya bukan yg begitu gua suka karena minim battle, ini lebih banyak jelasin tentang keberlanjutan kerjasama rudeus n cliff yang baru aja lulus, pemaparan dilema cliff dibahas cukup panjang dan melankolis. Gua nilai cerita sebenernya baru dimulai pas Rudy dpt balesan surat dr Claire alias neneknya utk dateng ke kota millis. Twist2 yang baru akhirnya muncul, mulai dari ketemu blessed child sampe knpa geese ada disana dan nyulik ZENITH??!!!
Yaudah itu aja, sekarang mau cari tau dulu kemana Zenith dibawa dan kenapa, di volume 21. C U

A pretty good volume but some of the translation choices made me cringe. What’s up with referring to the Blessed Child as an “e-girl” surrounded by “simps”? Given the earlier fan backlash against the localisation of this title, you’d think Seven Seas would handle the translation with a bit more care.

[João Pottes · Rating 5 out of 5]

Aaaargh that French pastry crone. I guess with insufferable characters such as that one, the more we hate them, the better they are. Seeing auntie again refreshed my memory of their first meeting back in volume 5, so heartwarming. And sheeesh, what a setup ending also calling back to first meeting Aisha in Shirone! I'm looking forward to smacking that monkey-faced newbie. SIC'EM!

[Manolo Tenorio · Rating 3 out of 5]

Nice, slow, slice of life type of novel. It was enjoyable but lacked a bit of action (or romance) for my taste.
Hated the grandma thou.
Had my blood boiling so I will say I was succesfully rage-baited this time.
Props for that

Good

[Reeve · Rating 4 out of 5]

The slice of life/breather novel before the pace picks up till the end.

[Andy Febrico Bintoro · Rating 4 out of 5]

The story progressing slowly. It's just the rating for the English version coming out rather quickly after 2 months from volume 19. Still in the preparation of War, and the story barely moving.

[Justin · Rating 5 out of 5]

Don't you hate it when Authors leave books on cliffhangers.

[Haris Raza · Rating 2 out of 5]

A sequence of words documenting a sequence of events leading up to… something

Creo que tengo que parar un poco. Aunque no es lo único que leo, sí es lo que leo más deprisa:/

Bien, no tan bueno como el ultimo pero deja con ganas de más. Supongo que también leeré el siguiente👽

Que mier... le pasa a la abuela del Rudeus?

This book juggles so many genres. I love these slower moments and this book always knows how to hook you into the next volume mannnnnn

[C · Rating 4 out of 5]

Once awhile the author goes into self analysis and it gives me a headache.

[slugbiscuit · Rating 4 out of 5]

Time for some graduations and future plans. Rudeus makes a trip to Millishion and this one unfortunately ends on a cliffhanger. Good overall but lots of typos and sloppy editing.

[Albert Chung · Rating 4 out of 5]

Not the most action packed but still a nice novel

Not much happened to further the story in this novel but it set up for a nice setting in the next one.
Also, I felt this novel had more spelling and grammar errors than previous books in this series. Did they hire a new translator or something?

[Kavatarapu Kun · Rating 4 out of 5]

Another slice of life volume though it started off very boring, it gets better in the last third of the book and sets up the story for the next arc. A quick read and kind of a filler volume but better than vol 18.

A 3.5/5

[Kron Wolf · Rating 4 out of 5]

Un entre tiempo, es interesante lo que esta creando el protagonista a su alrededor, pero no siento que fuera un gran cambio, he de suponer que se debe a que es una fórmula muy marcada dentro de la obra.

[Jesus · Rating 5 out of 5]

I loved it. Rudy is growing so much along with his family. I loved how much he loves his family to the point he would pick a fight with his grandmother. There are several new characters in this volume that are important. Can't wait to see how they will help or hinder rudy.

[Nuniflex · Rating 2 out of 5]

Not much happened at all, really. Somewhat a filler volume for something more grand. The finale is close, so I expect things to pick up in the next volume.
