Was Squid Girl the anime that started the trend of small, proud deities getting dunked on by humans and modern life? It is certainly old enough to be possible, but it seems that too many have forgotten the wrath of the sea these days.

Where To Start The Squid Girl Manga After The Anime?
The Squid Girl anime is one of those series that jumps all around the manga since it lacks a linear plot. This also means that there is no clean place to start the Squid Girl manga after the anime.
For example, the last episode of Season 2 adapts moments from both Chapter 175 and Chapter 19. The anime also starts skipping chapters as early as Chapter 4, so there is no good estimate of where to start either. This means you should start the Squid Girl manga at Chapter 1.
As the Squid Girl manga only has 10-page long chapters, and skipped plenty of chapters in what the anime adapted, it is pretty easy to read from the beginning and there are plenty of new moments that you will not have seen in the anime.
Is The Squid Girl Manga Over?
The Squid Girl manga is complete. It ended in 2016 with Volume 22, Chapter 419.
Will There Be A Squid Girl Season 3?
As the anime came out in 2011 and the manga is also long-concluded, it is safe to say that a Squid Girl Season 3 is not going to happen.
