Cautious Hero came out in a wave of isekai where every isekai was kind of same-y and blending together. So I bet tons of people slept on it. Yet, what they missed was legitimately the best comedy isekai anime this side of Konosuba.
Cautious Hero has one of those anime endings that actually feels pretty satisfying. You get some decent closure, but it wasn’t the end of the story. If you want more, the light novel gives more.
Where To Start The Cautious Hero Light Novel After The Anime?
If you have finished the Cautious Hero anime and want to continue the story in the light novel, you can start, technically, at Novel 3.
However, because the anime was ending it where it did, you miss the set up and context given at the end of the second novel. So I recommend you at least go find the second novel and read the last chapter of it where it sets the stage for the next part of the story.
Is The Cautious Hero Light Novel Over?
The Cautious Hero light novel is still ongoing. However, it has not released a new novel since 2019. The author was said to be focusing on his other series, but even that has seen sparse releases, so what is going on is up to speculation.
Where To Start The Cautious Hero Manga After The Anime?
The Cautious Hero had a manga. However, it sat on hiatus for awhile, and barely reached the end of the first arc before being fully cancelled.
What to Expect From The Cautious Hero Source Material Compared to The Anime?
As the anime only adapted two light novels, it gave those two novels a lot of time to shine. While some smaller details were left out, it didn’t skip anything worth reading the series from the beginning for unless you just want to.
Will There Be A Cautious Hero Season 2?
There has been no announcement of a Cautious Hero Season 2 anime.
The anime ended at a good place, and while the rest of the story is interesting, it isn’t quite as impressive and fun as the first arc was. So it is unlikely that Cautious Hero will receive more anime.
