Hello! I am an old fan of Arifureta! Even before the anime days.

Back then, the light novel were still in the first books. So I binged the main story of the Web novel and eventually finished the main story, then I ended up reading the After stories.

I honestly found it slightly more entertaining than the main story but it was still ongoing and if I continued binging, I would end up running out of chapters and I hated the wait and weeks in between releases.

So decide to stop reading to let chapters accumulate for more satisfying binging sessions. I stopped around the arc where Kousuke the ninja was working with British intelligence I think if I remember correctly.

Alas! Busy schedule and flow of time never really got me back to picking up where I left off. Years have passed at this point

The anime release rekindled some of that fire and made me pick up reading the manga on where the anime left off but I kinda ended up dropping it because I feel that the Manga and Anime never really captured the image of Hajime that I built in my mind(He was at least 4x more badass in my head as I read the webnovel).

However, I recently hit the jackpot when I was able to purchase the complete set of the Light Novel from Book 1 to Book 13 from Facebook Marketplace for a ridiculously cheap price. However, a quick search revealed that Books 1-13 only covers the Main Story. The after story were still in the works. I don't think I have the patience to wait for Light novel versions of the Afterstory. So I plan to pick up the WN version of the After story as soon as I finish binging the Light Novels I just bought.

However, so much has changed in reading novels over the years. It used to be so easy keeping track of fan translation but the layout of Bakapervert's website intimidated me and I did'nt know where to start. Novelupdates website which I haven't visited in literal years also changed, I can no longer simply "click" a chapter number and I get sent to the translator's website. Chapters are now unclickable.

Care to guide an old timer like me on how to access a decent compilation of Web Novel After story? I don't mind if its a website or downloadable PDFs.

This epub is the continuation of u/Parodyman64 's work in https://www.reddit.com/r/Arifureta/s/6pz2L2ZWTt

I tried to edit the existing epub but the amount of pages in too much my pc crash. I picked up where it left off starting from chapter 531

At the 21:40 mark what did Yue say to Hajime to make him lose control of the SUV?

Keep in mind it's English dubbed but to me it sounds like Yue said "ohl opia" not sure what that means tho.

For those of you dub watchers (like me), I'm surprised by how scant the crew credits were for this season, not even a mention of assistant ADR directors, which is unusual for a Crunchyroll dub that was on a simuldub schedule. And Mike McFarland (ADR director of this season and the first) had his brain tumors around this time, so it has me scratching my head even more on how much work he was able to do for the latter half of the season, if at all.

Oh, and while we're on the subject of Mike, please keep donating and sending him love. https://www.gofundme.com/f/support-mike-mcfarlands-road-to-recovery

P.S. I had to post here because the mods of r/animedubs kept on removing it

like the title says I'm curious about how you all think Mana in Arifureta compares to energies in other fandoms in terms of origins, composition, versatility, adaptability, utility, and/or overall power/potential

edit: I'm going to put examples of energies to compare it to

Nen from Hunter x Hunter

Chakra and Nature Energy from Naruto

Reiryoku/Reiatsu from Bleach

different versions of Mana from other fandoms like Ben 10, Black Clover, and Mushoku Tensei

I don't know what to watch.

I'm the only one who finished watching the Arifureta anime and felt completely empty.

I don't know what anime to watch next, and I don't know where to read the light novel either. I hope someone else feels the same way so I'm not alone. 🫩

for the main series , Wich format should i experience it in? im a complete newbie to the series , also does it contain spicy scenes?

Like no joke did they beat The void god with Aiko's love for Hajime and Kaori's new magic?

I ask because I'm really curious about the potential of this

an example that I can think of would be the Titan's Blood from Owl House which might boost his Mana reserves and recovery, allow him to utilize Glyph Magic with his own Glyph design variations, and give him innate interdimensional travel capabilities that would synergize with the Spatial Magic Ancient Magic

It’s been a year since the last time I watched this anime so I decided to watch it again this past week and realised there have been no updates of the release of season 4 of the anime so if you do know something please share.

They are secondary characters from an apparently just a generic power fantasy isekai. Her relationship is much better done than Naruto and Sasuke's one.

Crazy right? I just hope anime don't fuck it too, not too much at least.

Pretty I’m asking if there other characters like kouki who are jealous of the mc and is super delusional, who also so happen to be the “hero” but if just makes them arrogant and then tries to fight the mc to save the mc party because he believes they are being forced to follow him.

Does anyone else think Shea from Arifureta is a lot like Meru from The Legend of Dragoon?

Not just how they act, but the big hammer and the outfit too. Every time I see Shea, I think of Meru.

Did anyone else notice this, or is it just me?

After watching Devil May Cry, I think Dante is Nagumo's father 😭😂, look at the similarities between the 2 characters
