This is kinda a meta-review of the LN and the anime, not the manga...
The anime for anime-haters.
I'm 65 and have been watching anime for 30+ years (Ranma 1/2 and the like). My significant other is 66 and has watched many anime with me... but only the first episode.
When I encountered Bookworm, I managed to get her to watch one episode, and she ended up watching three. Then the next day, another three. And then two, and then another two and then we ran out of English dubs and she continued to watch the series in subtitled format until it ended (she's seriously dyslexic and this
...
is actually physically painful for her).
Then I got the light novels and she read them as fast as I could give them to her (dyslexic remember) and is now working on volume 8 in the series on kindle..
Others have given plots, backgrounds, critiques, etc...
I don't need to:
My 66-year-old SO binge-watched the whole series, including the subtitled episodes and is reading the light novels as fast as she can.
That's really all you need to know.
Update: the SO is now working on Volume 16 and happy that the release of 17 is just around the corner.
Update to the update: She's now working on Volume 17 and happy that the release of 18 is just around the corner.
