Ascendance of a Bookworm is getting a new season in Q2. It's my favorite light novel series. I've read all 33 books three times. In my opinion, the books sort of keep getting better and better, all the way to the end. The author did such a good job at world building and character building, and as you get further into the story, it becomes clearer how deep the lore is and how interesting the characters are.

So, I'm really hoping that the anime acts the same way, and that the new season hooks the viewers even more so that we can get the full story animated.

I'm an anime only but I absolutely love Bookworm, really hyped for the next season! I hope they'll keep quality and pacing from other seasons.

I know LN readers can be annoying when they say this, but you're seriously missing out by not reading the novels. They're on a completely different level, and probably would be even if the anime got a Frieren-level budget, which it almost certainly won't.

Is the series complete? I usually read the source material of series I really liked but only if the story concluded. Waiting for chapters is too painful.

It is, final volume came out in English last year.

Let's just hope it gets a decent budget, or at least enough for twelve episodes stares at season 3.
