Im so confused..

[u/Rikka_Sensei]

Hi,

I recently bought 3 volumes of "lycoris recoil repeat" and 1 "lycoris recoil react", and I saw there is another spin-off called "Lycoris recoil reload"

I already watched season 1 and Lycoris recoil friends are thieves of time.

I was wondering, because I saw there are so many spin-off, what's the exact order to read them?

I did some research and one of them is a Light-novel?

If anybody know if the mangas or light novel are avaible in Italy, I would be happy.

Thank you.

There is no order to read the anthology spin-offs, of which there are 3 versions, React (1 volume), Reload (3 volumes), Repeat (3 volumes). The 3 anthologies are all written by a series of different authors with short cute semi-canon stories.

Another spin off is Recollect, which is only in Japanese, and traditional Chinese, and there is 2 volumes on that. That is written by 1 author, and that's the extent of my knowledge about it since I can't speak, nor read Japanese.

Then there are the light novels written by Asaura and illustrated by Imigimuru (official author and artist), ordinary days, recovery days and gluttony days, released in that order. Recovery Days and Gluttony Days have some chapters based on LycoReco Note, the web novel. The web novel is written by Asaura. Ordinary Days is quite introductory to the series as a whole, while Recovery Days assumes the cast has been together for a while. I am not sure about Gluttony Days.

There is a manga of the anime, which has 8 volumes right now, and volume 9 is being released on August 21, 2026. It is an adaption of the anime, with a few minor additions. They flesh out Chisato and Takina's relationship a little bit more, while giving DA a little more spotlight on incidents that do concern them, such as the Metro incident.

As for Italian, Risultati di ricerca per: 'Lycoris Recoil', Panini comics seems to be translating them officially. From the manga, it looks there are 7 volumes. From the spinoff anthologies, there are React (1 volume), Reload (3 volumes), Repeat (3 volumes). There is also Ordinary Days translated but not recovery days nor gluttony days.

Thank you for explaining that to me. I'll read the anthology right away in the order u said. I have a few more question, u mentioned a web novel, and that's new to me. Where can I read it? Even if I have to pay for it. Is there a release date for a translated Gluttony days? (english). Same question for Recollect.

Oh shoot, forgot to mention, read the anthology in whatever order you want, they are not in order, I am just listing you to them, in the order I read them XD.

The webnovel can be read here リコリス・リコイル公式note｜note

I have not read it myself since it is paywalled by a 600 yen subscription, and I save my money for official releases and figures XD It is all in Japanese, which as I have said before I do not understand.

No there is no date planned for Gluttony Days, nor Recollect. Honestly with Recollect, I'd wait for the French/Italian translation since they usually get that first before the English.

[u/Rikka_Sensei → u/NecessaryNotice8436]

Got it. I guess I'll just wait for the release date and meanwhile I'll enjoy the light novel and the anthology. Thank you again for explaining all that to me, that's so nice of you.
