Perhaps it is the sea of same-ish isekai shows I am awash in every new anime season, but I dearly treasure these small unique anime series like Raven of the Inner Palace. It has an intriguingly mystical setting, interesting yet expediently solved spiritual mysteries, and just enough romantic bait.

Where To Start The Raven of the Inner Palace Light Novel After The Anime?
If you are looking to pick up Raven of the Inner Palace after the anime with its light novel source, you can do so at Novel 3.
Is The Raven of the Inner Palace Light Novel Over?
The Raven of the Inner Palace light novel is complete. It ended in 2022 with Novel 7.
What to Expect From The Raven of the Inner Palace Source Material Compared to The Anime?
The Raven of the Inner Palace anime adapted things quite well, but you might see different names used depending on your translation. The kanji when translated into romaji is different from the Chinese reading that the anime subtitles use. That would be why the name they say in the anime sounds nothing like what you read in the subtitles.
Aside from that, the anime does a passable job adapting the light novel stories. It skips a lot of finer details to keep the stories more compact, but still keeps the core plot elements of them intact. As such, you don’t need to read the light novel from the beginning, though that would help get used to the new names if you are reading a translation that uses different ones. Learning the alternate names was honestly the hardest part.
Will There Be A Raven of the Inner Palace Season 2?
There has been no Raven of the Inner Palace Season 2 anime announced.
The anime reached the sort of nice end spot that promotional anime like to rush to when they don’t intend to make more. As such, it seems unlikely, particularly given that the light novel is also recently concluded, that they will make another season.
