Marvin , could you link 1437 ? Thanks <| sep |> The light novels are licensed and translated by Yen Press , but there is the other , unofficial translation made by Drunken Wolf Translations too . Anime covers LNs 13 and 5 , but I ' d recommend reading them too , since it provides tons of those small details that make you understand the whole better . For example , Anime season 1 s Why did Lawrence try to make Holo stay using his torn clothes as an main reason ? and Anime season 1 s Why Does Lawrence sound so selfish only around episodes 46 ? . It also offers some interesting details like Why is Ruvenheigen called Ruvenheigen ? or Why is the road between Ruvenheigen and Lamtra in such a bad condition ? . It also makes it easier to understand the economical background . As for manga I didn ' t read too much of itended it around Ruvenheigen crisis . Its style feels a bit more ecchilike to me . Storywise , it ' s in the middle between Anime and LNs . So , in my opinion Anime and LNs are equally goodsoundtrack , voice acting and the view of Holo ' s waving tail vs more details and clarification . Manga on the other side , is also fine , but not even close to these two
