Where Does The 86 Anime End in The Light Novels?

I was dubious at first with 86 and it’s CGI mechs, but boy if the story didn’t completely charm me by the end. It gave an interesting look at an interesting way of waging war, and best of all, broke your heart while doing it.

Where To Start The 86 Light Novel After The Anime?

If you finished both parts of the 86 anime and wish to continue the story with the light novel, you can do so at Novel 4.

The anime skips the epilogue of Novel 3 and, given the tender place it ended, you may wish to go read it.

Is The 86 Light Novel Over?

The 86 light novel is still ongoing. Since launching in 2017, it usually releases one or two novels per year.

Where To Start The 86 Manga After The Anime?

The 86 had a manga series, but it was dropped after the manga author grew sickly, so it stops shortly after the start of Part 2 of the anime.

What to Expect From The 86 Source Material Compared to The Anime?

The 86 anime does a great job of adapting the light novels and making the story as impactful as it should be. However, like any light novel anime adaptation, it does skip a few finer details when it comes to character moments and world building. However, there is nothing skipped that merits reading 86 from the beginning unless you want to.

Will There Be A 86 Season 2?

I wish! However, no official announcement has been made for an 86 Season 2 anime.

The anime adaptation was a sizable two-cour first season, and it gave fans a good taste while ending at a natural stopping point. However, given that the anime ended in 2021, the window for a second season is rapidly closing. While it was a great series, it may not have been profitable enough to merit continuing.
