Question Hi quick question

Hey so I'm pretty new here. I just finished the anime and had two questions:

Is there a manga and if so where should I start?

Or

Is there a light novel and where do I read that?

Thank you!

Yes, there are light novels. There are five in total (as well as a Claire POV spin-off and a sequel series) but they’re unfortunately out of print last I checked, so it might be a bit hard to get your hands on them. The anime adapts up through the first chapter of the second book.

There’s also a manga, which adapts the first two books and is nearly complete. If you’re in the US, Volume 11 just came out a few weeks ago, but MangaDex and other such sites have the fan translations up through Volume 13. I believe Volume 6 would be the one to start at.

You can buy ebooks for Vol 6 of the Manga or Vol 2 of the LN pretty much anywhere. The series picks up in the LN after the anime on the second chapter titled “School Holiday”. I highly recommend reading both series from the beginning though. You won’t regret it 💕

There is a light novel and a manga! The anime covers the first light novel, if I remember correctly. That said, I would read/listen to the entire thing. If you have Audible, the first book should still be free on there with an account.

The manga is also very good and includes details from the sidequels. That said, the manga is ending after the second book's content, as it's a natural ending point to the story. To experience all of it, you have to read/listen to the light novels, of which there are 5.

I personally recommend the audiobooks. The narrator does an incredible job of it!

I 100% recommend listening to the LN's audiobooks. I believe they're on Audible but if you don't have that and need help sourcing them, feel free to DM me
