As an avid MMO player and person who has seen perhaps too much MMO-based anime, it was a real treat to watch Maple stomp tryhards in the most wholesome way imaginable. It’s not as fun to read about it, though.

Where To Start The Bofuri Light Novel After The Anime?
If you have finished both seasons of the Bofuri anime and wish to continue the series by picking it up in the light novel, you can do so at Novel 9.
Is The Bofuri Light Novel Over?
The Bofuri light novel is ongoing. Since launching in 2017, it has steadily released two novels per year.
Where To Start The Bofuri Manga After The Anime?
Bofuri has a manga series, but it is well behind the anime. As of Chapter 38, the latest chapter I could find, Maple Tree is getting ready to fight it out with the Holy Sword Guild, which is the end of Season 1, Episode 11.
Is The Bofuri Manga Over?
The Bofuri manga is ongoing. Since launching in 2018, it usually only releases one volume per year.
What to Expect From The Bofuri Source Material Compared to The Anime?
The Bofuri anime sped through the content of the light novels. What you missed isn’t necessarily so relevant to the plot, but you will need to be aware that some characters will have skills that they did not have in the anime. Furthermore, the light novels are quite focused on world building, and building out the game mechanics. If that is something that interests you, you may wish to read the Bofuri light novels from the beginning.
Will There Be A Bofuri Season 3?
There has been no official announcement of a Bofuri Season 3 anime.
Bofuri was at least popular enough to get green-lit for a second season outside of a “it was just contractually obligated” second season agreement situation. This means it was likely profitable, and profitable anime continues to get seasons, so a Bofuri Season 3 is likely.
