i don't like reading LN that's why i'm thinking of jumping on to the manga but i'm kinda confused if it's faithful to the source material or not

i don't mind cut content until it does not cut anything very major in the story

I only read volume 1 of the LN and all of the manga and from what I've read, the LN is more accurate

utterly useless response, man just said he doesn't like reading LN

He asked which one is more faithful and I replied with the answer

Pretty sure he asked which of the manga or anime is faithful to the LN.

The anime is more “faithful” simply because it has adapted scenes from the LN that the manga hasn’t.

So most likely the anime will even be ahead of the manga (technically it already is) once the season finishes.

The manga is faithful enough, but the anime is adapting the LN.
If you reply back to me and I never respond, I lost interest and don't care. Sorry about that.

Anime adapted parts that were later added in LN vol 4 in the first episode. But after that, it has been pretty much faithful to the LN. if I had to say, The anime is more faithful to the LN because it keeps the comedy just as its in LN. but the Manga illustrations exaggerats the comedy and makes it more like a parody comic.

Manga is more enjoyable, but the anime is closer to the LN

Manga is a better & more faithful adaptation than the anime. It understands the joke and try to visualize it, it skips some infos but not as much as the anime.

Nope, there is no "major cut" in manga, aside from few bits foreshadowing probably.

Volume 5 will be out in Japan at 28 December by the way~
So the LN will be way more ahead of the manga.

To OP:
LNs are not really hard to read. Nowadays, I spend more time reading LN than watching anime.
If English is your second language, you can try picking up J-Novel Club LNs, they are easier to read.
English is my second language. XD
