How behind is the Manga compared to the LN?

After the anime I want to read the story but I hate light novels cause I cant without pictures. Is the manga very behind?

The most recent manga that came out just started getting into the first couple of chapters of vol 3 of the light novel (there are currently 6 light novels out)

They did just start releasing the light novels on audio so that might help you

Hola! Sabes si ya hay fecha estimada de lanzamiento para el volumen 7 en japonés o inglés? Es que yo tenía entendido que salía entre junio- julio de este año, pero he visto que en varios lugares marca hasta marzo 2027

Manga is adapting Light Novel 3 right now and there are 6 LN’s out so far. Every 3 manga books is for each LN. I always would rather recommend the LN because you get more out of it in text than just pictures and you’ll be way behind nonetheless if you stick to the mangas as I will just put it for now.

I got the mangas at first Tbf but I switched over to the LN’s and been hooked since and always cannot wait for the adaption into manga to see how it’s interpreted

Plus it comes out in Japanese at first after the comic Gardo updates ends and then their physical comes out like maybe 3 months after that and then 6 months later it comes out in English after. Tbh it helps that we get two 7TL content within the same year (sometimes if we’re lucky) anyways and I don’t think they’ll be adapting the short stories into manga at all until they get closer to that decision but rn it focuses on the illustrators health and schedule as I’ve seen so far

Plus as someone else said they have audiobook (weirdly LN1 is not on Spotify) and LN3 just came out for that and LN4 is coming out in June my theory for that is they come out every other month and by December is when LN6 audiobook is going to be out depending on the narrator and they might do short stories audiobook possibly but no idea till it comes out lol

But again I know I’m yapping but I wouldn’t depend on the manga to give you every little context of what’s happening in the LN :)
