It was pretty bad. Not sure how you enjoyed it

I would personally start at the beginning, it explains more about the other students a little and some parts were cut from the anime.

If u wanna start off where the anime left, read volume 6 (anime wrapped up volume 5). If you understood everything that happened so far, then go ahead and read from Volume 6. I would recommend reading from volume 1. It adds a lot more depth and more details to the story. Also, many things that confused people in the anime are better explained in the LN.

In the end it's up to u to decide. There's nothing wrong with going straight to volume 6, u will understand everything most probably. I just recommend reading from vol 1 since it makes the story so far even better.

Also, please read the LN, it's better than the WN (as in most cases)

The anime adapted up to the end of volume 5, but I’d recommend you start reading from the second half of volume 3 or volume 4. Basically, start reading at the point when Kumoko leaves the labyrinth - that’s what I’d recommend.

You should start at volume 6. I'd recommend maybe skimming or reading summaries of the previous volumes I'd you really don't want to read them though because the show changed a few important things. I'd also recommend the manga.

I would also start from the beginning and you won’t regret it, the light novel is sooo good and it explaines a lot more than the anime, the anime confused me even tho I read the light novel

Dont understand why ppl dont want to read from the beginning. Light novels contain more detail. Its super funny. I'm rereading it and still laugh out loud.

Web novel, light novel, manga, adaptation, they all differentiate a little from eachother, so they're all worth reading from beginning.

Or you know, you could let people enjoy whatever they want. Having an opinion on it is fine, but shitting on them for enjoying it is just plain childish.

It is definitely one of the more unique Isekai out there in an ocean of copy paste’s.

The end of Volume 5 covers the end of the anime. Id highly recommend it, it's probably one of my favorite light novels to date!

Web novel is the draft, and will be full of rough details that might not match the LN and Anime. Light novel is the real book version. Despite the previous statement, there are plenty of great web novels, since it's really just an author adding chapters to an online novel periodically

If you don't mind just reading text without pictures, like manga in general, it's probably fine. LN provides more details about the story or other things.

yes, both have pretty much different development but both have same goal. WN can be alternative story/LN's dark version since it's free to read.
