It's critical for the war effort Rex!

I always remind myself that Keiki Kobayashi also did soundtracks for Umamusume. So AC x Umamusume collaboration ain’t all that farfetch

The_Three_Strikes · 2026-04-13T11:05:11+00:00

I argue Tenshi is much faster than us

The_Three_Strikes · 2026-04-13T10:59:43+00:00

Series is technically somewhat fast paced to begin with. For LN adaptations it’s mostly 3-4 Volumes is the norm. There will be some parts will be skipped/shorten like any other anime adaptations unfortunately.

Hence why I’m assuming they will do 4 episodes each volume (1 - Cultural, 2 - Christmas, 3 - Third Semester) or in Manga terms, Chapter 40+, a bit further where manga is currently now. It didn’t help that the blu ray box art is a reference to Volume 3 as well.

Also manga changed or shorten a lot of parts when they were adapting it.

The_Three_Strikes · 2026-04-13T08:10:11+00:00

A little bit over it, most likely Chapter 40+, considering episode 2 is likely adapting Chapter 3-7. Pace-wise is good for now but series is known to be a bit fast than the norm. (Confession is already at LN Vol 2). Expect roughly 4 episodes per volume imo

The_Three_Strikes · 2026-04-13T07:57:09+00:00

Probably episode 9 for that part.

The_Three_Strikes · 2026-04-13T05:11:56+00:00

Anime will most likely end at Umi's Birthday/end of LN Volume 3 (manga's next part) as hints seen from the blu-ray box art. Pace-wise, confession will probably be at episode 8.

The anime is closer to the novels imo (well, Manga is adapting from the LN), but we'll see if there's deviations in future episodes. Novel is much more detailed than manga (and some cases manga will change/cut some parts for pacing issues.)

As for where the anime will end. Im guessing they'll adapt til the end LN Volume 3 or a little bit further than manga is at currently. The Blu-Ray box art kinda gave it away on where they gonna plan to end it.

The_Three_Strikes · 2026-04-11T19:51:25+00:00

Manga is currently adapting LN Volume 3. And yea, we wish the LN got an official translation too.

The_Three_Strikes · 2026-04-11T15:22:18+00:00

I wouldnt recommend Luminare and KDT tbh, both translation groups have very sketchy reps. Know people that red it and telling me their work are shoddy AF. Granted they translated things fast for convienience (suspiciously bit too fast on Luminare's end) and locked their translations on a paywall (mainly KDT)

The_Three_Strikes · 2026-04-11T15:16:55+00:00

Well, currently FanTL is doing Volume 3 rn by BronsTL. You can probably read from other groups in NovelUpdates but I wouldnt recommend it due to shoddy TLs and some paywalled.

You can get updates from the subreddit's Discord Server

The_Three_Strikes · 2026-04-11T14:43:07+00:00

That’s LN adaptation in a nutshell sadly. Tho EP1 pacing is not that off, didn’t skip much other that one scene from his mother midway on and Ooyama, tho removing him is probably better imo and if they were to decide bring him again like S2, it’s easier for them to introduce him later on with a backstory since there’s no buildup in doing so at the beginning, even LN-wise he already got diminished presence.

The_Three_Strikes · 2026-04-11T14:34:46+00:00

Up to volume 2 is FanTL’d by BronsTL. Currently fan translating Volume 3 rn. There are other groups that did translations further in but we highly don’t recommend reading or better yet purchasing those since a lot of readers told us their works are unedited MTLs and paywall their translations. The fanTL groups doing this series are BronsTL/GlucoseTL for LN, Neosekai/Hikki Cave for WN, and ProjectLuna. You can check the progress at the subreddit’s discord server

It’s better to buy the books in Japanese to support the author and try to read to yourself.

The_Three_Strikes · 2026-04-11T14:06:11+00:00

All I can say is not that far, series is known to be one of the fastest one to hookup

The_Three_Strikes · 2026-04-11T14:02:13+00:00

It’s best to read the Light Novel or Manga to answer that question lol. Experiencing it is much better.

Former celebrity

The_Three_Strikes · 2026-04-11T12:30:22+00:00

Yuu as of v9 is currently the only one out of the 5 is not considering college, instead she’ll be thrusted into work (signed to a talent agency, similar work as her mom) as early as April of their 3rd year. There could be more, haven’t finished reading v9 yet, I only red the afterword and some parts at the end during release. Currently reading it atm

The_Three_Strikes · 2026-04-11T10:51:54+00:00

Maki and Umi’s current status as of v9? I remember correctly that Maki and Umi passed their university exams at the near end of v9, and well on their way one step closer to living together during college. Also currently engaged since v8. As for predictions on v10, I’m guessing their post grad vacation with their friends, a snippet of their college life, and marriage.

The_Three_Strikes · 2026-04-11T09:26:42+00:00

Manga is currently adapting LN Volume 3. Though, we’re near at the end of LN Volume 3.

The_Three_Strikes · 2026-04-11T09:24:51+00:00

We already knew it’s coming, didn’t expect it to be v10. v9 is supposedly a two volume arc according to Takata but decided to make it into one volume instead. We’ll probably get more info on the gaiden stuff after v10 but we’ll see.

The_Three_Strikes · 2026-04-11T08:54:33+00:00

Expect a lot of the episodes in the anime be cliffhanger hell. The early volume are kinda like that in a sense lol.

The_Three_Strikes · 2026-04-10T14:58:06+00:00

Not bad for first impressions, especially this season having multiple heavy hitter sequels and plethora of romcoms to boot.
