How far does the story reach in anime comparing to the novel (around what chapter)?

Ch. 162

But the anime skips a lot of stuff like with the Full Moon Guild so idk now much sense later chapters will make if you miss those 162 chapters completely.

One chapter takes like max 3mins to read in full; shorter if you just glance over stuff you've already seen in the show to just pick at the unadapted bits, which is what I would recommend.

Also just fyi even though the LN is completed the English translation is only up to about half way as far as I know though I don't know what pace they're going at.


lol ignore me I'm talking out of my butt because my memory is garbage. My rec about reading the unadapted bits still stands though.

Actually, it's not chapter 162. It's reached at least 209 chapters.

Check this for more info: https://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=1616793 It only has info up to Episode 11. Will update when I have info on Episode 12.

I also wanted to just pick it up where the donghua left it, but it got a bit confusing when characters and info that wasn't told in the animation popped up in the novel.
So I decided to just start from zero. Much much better. Specially since interesting info like Boss Chen Guo's background is only mentioned in the novel, and not in the donghua.

So, I would suggest you start from chapter 1. I do skip when it gets too technical though lol

I read it..no doubt it was worthy
if you like the anime ,I recommend you read the novel for more interesting things
that aside , it is 700 chapters , but its length per chapter is not too long ,so you can read it faster than you expect

Imo the problem of the Novel is, that the game situations are vastly described and the main focus. THe anime just briefly explained these situations and offered animated action scenes instead, which are, of course, much easier and fluent to watch. The personal interactions with other people are quite rare. They are compressed and changed a bit in the anime, so it got more interesting and entertaining.

Im still up to date with the novel (chapter 800+ something), but I couldnt really recommend it as some other books. Its mainly a novel for gamers having interest in such games like WoW etc. Others will find it super boring and I can totally understand it. If youre interested, Id give it a try around chapter 186 or something like that (when Mucheng visited YX the first time in Happy Cafe) and read some chapters. If you really want to continue, Id recommend to read from chapter 1, because the Novel gives some more background and details, which werent shown in the anime.
