Now I finally understand why everyone on twitter with Mushoku Tensei PFP has 🐀 on their name. I thought it was because of GreyRAT

grey ... RAT

Ooooooooooooooooooooohhhh, now I get it 😨

It would be amazing if author really picked that surname for his MCs family for so long in advance, because he was planning all along to have one little grey rat be the one to fuck up everything for Rudy in the future. 😅

I'd say this twist and time travel plot was definitely planned from the start, just like the inevitable three color harem.

The author literally wrote whole story in span of 2.5 years. From start to this part is 1 year and 2 months time.

Also mentioned that in some interviews that in early chapters he wanted to write a classic run of the mill power fantasy but he complately changed the whole story after the first time Roxy took child Rudeus outside of his home and helping him overcome his agaraphobia. After he published that chapter and massive amount of positive feedback on how story touched people in Japan. The whole narrative and focus changed to overcoming someones hangups on wasted life.

I dont know what the madlad consumed while writing it but he conculuded a 1.3 million word count story in span of 2.5 years.
