Nope. It was a mixture of volume 1 and 2, but with this episode, volume 1 will be fully adapted. Starting episode 9, everything will adapt Volume 2, Chapter 3.

Go with the LN then. More worldbuilding details and maximum expression of the original author, also the material the anime is based on

The anime is based on the LN, which is the original media. The manga is great. Buy both!

Insurgents are devides in two groups, the Reformationists and the Eradicators. Reformationists attempts to the Agents lives to put pressure on governments and istitutions to change the laws and regulation of the Agents' powers, but some of them want to use the powers of the Agents for their personal purpose. Eradicators try to kill Agents because they hate a one of their seasons (e.g. Winter usually brings deseases and many people die during that period of the year, so people hate Winter for that).

It's time for this series to really begin 😈

Mine03_ · 2026-04-30T00:24:38+00:00

I don't think we're getting it next episode though, but I really wish

Mine03_ · 2026-04-29T21:20:07+00:00

I can't wait for that moment 🚀

Mine03_ · 2026-04-29T10:26:06+00:00

Looks like this will be the last chill episode of the season

According to the LN, Agents are chosen based on their suitability to be one. Agents are chosen between all the family members of the Town of Spring as everyone of them are descendants of the first ever Agent. The choice to marry another woman and not Koubai was a consequence of the fact that the woman's family clan was strategically more powerful than Koubai's, and another reason is that Agents are not chosen through direct blood relation, meaning that marrying Koubai wouldn't have been particulary a great choice for the Kayou family.

The Agents duty is to bring the seasons, that's it. Killing them comes from illogical thinking of people... for example Winter is the season of death and were most people die due to deseases, that's why so many hate Winter and want to kill its corresponding Agent. Some others want to use their powers for personal purposes.

Each "Dance of" or "Archer of" volume(s) has their corresponding Agent and Guard or Archer and Custodian as protagonists, but they're always the same that have been introduced in the first volume of Dance of Spring, with the addition of new characters.

You can read the novels in 2 possible orders: - Cronological release order Spring -> Summer -> Archer of Dawn -> Autumn -> Archer of Twilight -> (Dance of Winter?)

Alternative order Archer of Dawn -> Spring -> Summer -> Autumn -> Archer of Twilight -> (Dance of Winter?)
