There’s going to be a book 10
The story based on the web novel ended with volume 9 like I suspected, so volume 10 will be fully 書き下ろし/original. Seems like it’s going to be released this summer. 楽しみ!
By the way, the anime has started and looks pretty good so far. Good pace, excellent comedic timing and barely any details missing that I’m sad about. I’m looking forward to the next episode already! (And I kind of feel like starting the next book soon now that I’m getting a taste of it again…)
Impressions:
Me too. I kept putting it off because of other clubs, but I want to read vol 2 before the anime catches up. And right now at least it’s a good time to buy, because there’s a Half price sale for all LN and manga volumes on Bookwalker.
Oh, do you think it will adapt two volumes? I don’t think I’d even have a chance to catch up then
Anime adaptions of light novels tend to rush a bit. Two volumes is the absolute minimum it would adapt, with three or even four also being possible.
I just checked: Episode 1 adapted 18% of volume 1. There are 13 episodes. If they keep that pace it’ll be 13 * 18% = 234% in total… so probably either 2 volumes if they slow down a bit, or 3 volumes if they speed up a fair bit.
Me too! I love the voice acting and character design for Monica. (And her little cabin was cute too!)
I watched the episode today, I liked it a lot! Very dynamic and cute. The quality is also pretty good.
In a way it feels a bit hasty in comparison to the light novel. Maybe without reading the book it would have been more difficult to catch the character of Louis’s wide, for example. But atmosphere feels really good!
I also liked it. I enjoyed watching it after reading the LN, because in a way you get the best of both worlds. As expected, the over the top anime humor like Louis making fun of Monica’s stuttering was also more bearable in actual anime format.
