Where Does The Okami-san and Her Seven Companions Anime End In The Light Novel?

While not the first or only series to use cute nods to fairy tales in its romantic endeavors, Okami-san and Her Seven Companions did something unexpected and brought a more action-focused school romance story to life.

However, Okami-san and Her Seven Companions is an enjoyable anime that always feels like it is missing something or a little bit disconnected, and that feeling makes a lot more sense when you experience the light novel.

Where To Start The Okami-san and Her Seven Companions Light Novel After The Anime?

Okami-san and Her Seven Companions is a bit of a mess as an adaptation of the light novel. While each novel has a general overall story to it, they are often unrelated to each other outside of the linear progression of Okami and Ryoshi’s relationship.

So what the Okami-san and Her Seven Companions anime did is adapt parts of some stories, then stitch in parts of other stories as well as jump around the content of nearly the entire novel series.

This means it would be near impossible to just jump in at a certain novel and not miss quite a bit. So you really have to read Okami-san and Her Seven Companions from the beginning as the light novels are a “similar, but different” affair compared to the anime.

Furthermore, as Okami and Ryoshi’s building relationship is really the charm of this series, the anime cut out a lot of the moments of character growth, particularly for Ryoshi, that leads to a stronger romantic story than the anime really displayed.

Is The Okami-san and Her Seven Companions Light Novel Over?

The Okami-san and Her Seven Companions light novel is complete. It ended in 2017 with Novel 13.

Where To Start The Okami-san and Her Seven Companions Manga After The Anime?

While Okami-san and Her Seven Companions has a manga, it appears to be adapting the anime story – and also appears to have been canceled in 2012 after covering the events of episode 7, so it didn’t even adapt the full anime story.

Will There Be A Okami-san and Her Seven Companions Season 2?

As the anime came out in 2010 and its “manga adaptation of the anime” was canned after two years, I think they were happy with the “complete enough” ending that the Okami-san and Her Seven Companions anime had, and won’t be making a Season 2.
