ah its finally here! you cannot imagine how much eager i was when i heard chapter 56 was released in 18 October. that's why i am here, even though its 3.30 am local time and i have to wake up at 6 am( RIP my sleep).
by the way, i have sad news as this revolution arc will be the final arc of this manga. man! i started this manga after watching the anime and i knew this wouldn't probably get a second season for that god damn yuri curse. so i started the manga. but it will be gone too🥺. although i have digital copies of the light novel, this manga held me back to enjoy the art and story. guess i have to read the light novel once it's over.
question : do i need to read the light novel from the beginning? i mean is there anything that the manga didn't adapt? also how much did the revolution arc cover?
The first 2 LNs, which include the revolution arc, conclude the entirety of the story you saw building in the anime. That will all be covered by the manga (and they'll likely add the epilogue from LN2).
Everything after LN2 (after the revolution arc) is treated as a sequel series by the author, so it makes sense they'd choose to stop things here. Anything else would take years to cover and would be harder to adapt. Inori said as much in her announcement; she made sure to say that sales are good, it's just a fine time to move on to new stuff when this is such a natural stopping point.
As for reading the LNs, I would for sure. There's also the "
She's So Cheeky for a Commoner" spin-off novels that also cover the first 2 LNs but
entirely from Claire's POV. These, like everything in this series, have official English releases
. If nothing else, I'd read those. Seeing how Claire thinks and all the things that are happening outside of Rei's POV is great.
