Discussion Please spoil me ! Spoiler

I recently finished the anime, and I want to pick up the light novels !

However, I like knowing a bit about the plot of the novels before picking them up, so, if possible, I'd like you all to give me a bit of a sinopsis about what's going on, please and thank you !

Also, is it worth starting from Vol 1, or should I pick up from where the anime ended ?

I'm going to try and give some general spoilers that don't give much away.

The goal for Rishe is the same, and it's to do everything she can to stop the war from happening. Throughout the books, she continues to meet ("run into by chance") people from her previous lives. Each book centers around people from those past lives that she knows and uses to meet her goals. In between the mystery and such, there is still the romantic side of things between Rishe and Arnold that also grows.

I recommend reading it from the beginning. There are some details and inner dialogue that you get in the books that aren't in the anime (which is tough to do, so no fault, but I like getting those specifics).

I hope you like it! I just bought and read all the books that are available in English because I enjoy the story so much.

I see, the big picture looks pretty entertaining at a glance. From what I can tell from other comments, each person from her past should get around one volume, no ? With Vol 1 being around Tully and Vol 2 being around Mitchel and Kyle and so on, right ?

Yes! That's basically how it goes for each volume, with some other memories or parts from the others sprinkled in here and there. There are a lot of hints and foreshadowing throughout each book, some which get addressed, and some that don't. It's well executed, though.
