    I know this is a stupid question but is this actually the light novel just uploaded to the website? Or is it a web novel version?

    I guess there really isn't much activity in the comment section of this novel. To top it off it isn't even completed. sigh... I will probably just have to read the light novel from the point where the anime ends.

      This is the LN they just made it into chapters so they can release sections quicker and make the work load more spread out

      It's not dropped, the light novel is ongoing. Author releases a book every time, you just need to read the LN

      The webnovel is dropped. Pretty sure the light novel is still ongoing, there’s a manga too, with an arc that’s not even present on the webnovel. Plus an anime that had 16 episodes or some odd amount.

      Listen to the audio book on YouTube vol. 4 is when he goes back to Japan

      It’s not on here. That entire arc plus the Ragnarok fight is missing in the webnovel. I read through this whole thing twice, which you shouldn’t, because it doesn’t even have a proper ending, and I was stumped when I reached the Ragnarok fight in the manga.
