Cute girls can sell anything, even mountain climbing. However, while cute anime girls might have brought a few people in, Encouragement of Climb is a story about overcoming fear and perseverance.

Where To Start The Encouragement of Climb Manga After The Anime?
If you finished through Encouragement of Climb: Next Summit, the fourth season of anime, you can technically start the manga at Chapter 125.
Due to how the anime skips around, the anime has shown you events from later chapters, but the start point is the next arc after what Next Summit primarily adapted.
What to Expect From The Encouragement of Climb Manga?
The Encouragement of Climb anime is a bit of a mess when it comes to adapting the manga. In fact, they make quite hard to “jump into” the manga after the anime since they do skip things and re-arrange a lot of events.
It really would be easiest to read the Encouragement of Climb manga from the beginning. You would definitely spend less time piecing together the continuity of events as well.
Is The Encouragement of Climb Manga Over?
The Encouragement of Climb manga is still ongoing. Since launching in 2012, it usually releases two volumes per year.
Will There Be A Encouragement of Climb Season 5?
There has been no official Encouragement of Climb Season 5 announcement.
While cute girls doing cute outdoor things has received some renewed popularity due to Laid-Back Camp, Encouragement of Climb didn’t get too much of that runoff. While it has plenty of content left to adapt, climbing the iconic Mount Fuji can also be seen as what anime directors would consider a great stopping point, which does not bode well for the anime’s future.
