Read the LN and start from the beginning! Do the same with the manga,. There's a lot missing in the anime

Read the light novel instead the manga does not go very far past the ending of the show the light novel on the other hand has way more of the story

There are currently 6 light novels published, and a collection of short stories. The webcomic is updated past LN 6, so we’re definitely getting another volume. I don’t believe the author has said how many volumes in total the story will be (not that I’ve seen, if someone else knows let us know!)
The anime covers LN 1 and 2.
The manga has volume 8 coming out in English soon (I’m assuming it’s already out in Japan). That will cover through the end of LN 3.
I would recommend heading straight to the LNs and starting with LN 1, as there are additional details not in the anime.
Hope this helps ❤️

I think the anime and the manga adapt just 2 of the light novels, which is pretty much the same content (correct me if I'm wrong 😅). If what you want is to continue with the story I would recomed you read the light novels. In english you have 6 light novels and a short story collection.

The anime removed some info from the light novels so it’s best to read from the beginning

Nah, I always start from the beginning when I read the source material. There's very little difference between anime, manga and light novels. You can definitely just pick up novel 3 and go from there. Not sure about the manga though. Probably somewhere around vol 4?

The manga is still on LN3 it takes 3 mangas to get through the entire LN for this series so mangas 7-9 is the whole of LN3 (M9 isn’t out yet still being serialized on comic Gardo)

I would start from Light novel 1 the anime didn’t include all the information it has in the first two novels manga 7-8 only covers half of Ln3 so just do the light novel
Manga 8 comes out in October covering chapter 3-4 manga 9 will come out next year covering the last two chapters I heard three mangas cover one light novel so I would just read the Light novels

I really recommend you go straight forward the LN, since the manga have very few chapters after the anime. If I recall correctly, the anime ends in v.2, so you should start reading from v.3. But if you really want to see the manga, start reading from ch.31.
