I really shouldn't have watched the anime and read the Light Novel, i should've just sticked in the manga

The transition of timeline ruined the reading experience for me. It didn't confuse me, but it's like i was shown some spoilers that i didn't want to know yet-
it's like for example, i watched an anime and then the second season was the filler- I hate fillers.

That's how i felt after i read the LN- like they've shown me a massive spoiler that doesn't really hype me up but instead discouraged me- now i can no longer read the manga in peace without constantly wanting to drop it ;(

    So should I not watch the anime? Is the timeline out of order? Because I've stuck to the manga this whole time and it sounds like the anime might be further along, so I was gunna try to find the episode I was on but I don't like spoilers...

    Artwork is pretty but Timeline sucks. (It took me 24 episodes to understand that the timeline is out of order) So u prob need to watch it twice from the start

    Huh, thank you. I can probably figure it out since I'm going in knowing that the timeline is out of wack, but I'm not sure if I want the spoilers yet... At the same time, I don't want to wait for the slow manga updates... Oof, this is hard :')

    you don't really need to watch it twice, it depends on the person how fast they'll figure it out.
    But if you don't want massive spoiler coming at you(because of the timeline transition), skip the special chapters in the novel- unless you're fine with it.

    Because the timeline will slap you on what would happen in the future without warning like a massive spoiler and that really sucked- at least for me.

    Okay, so the anime is safeish then?

    the anime follows the novel, so basically the timeline is wack as well but you can avoid that timeline if you just stick on the novel since you can tell that the special chapters are the future timeline and regular chapters are the past one.

    I recommend you read the novel anf avoid the anime if you don't want to experience the inconsistent timeline like i did and be spoiled. so like, don't read the special chapters

    hmmmm i actually liked the anime's out of order timeline, cuz it gave me "Once upon a time" vibes where the timeline is broken, and i honestly enjoyed it (tho ofc, this is my opinion) it just made it more interesting for me

    yeah, i knew others like it, but it really isn't just for me. I prefer when timeline isn't whacked since it's really more of a spoiler to me then past was like a filler . I like it better when I'm oblivious of the future and don't know the direction of the story instead of separating mcs experience into past and making the war into future. It really just takes away the excitement imo.
    That's why i couldn't read the manga in peace and rather just skims through it after dropping the novel. My biggest regret what reading the special chapters
