Upon watching Sleepy Princess in the Demon Castle , I thought that there was no way they would have enough ways to make this one joke fill12 full length anime episodes without becoming tedious, but boy did they prove me wrong. Like all good “one joke” anime should, Sleepy Princess in the Demon Castle stretches and expands, even develops its characters in a story that isn’t complex, but is still quite fun.

Where To Start The Sleepy Princess in the Demon Castle Manga After The Anime?
If you finished the Sleepy Princess in the Demon Castle anime and wish to pick up the manga, you can do so at, technically, Chapter 89.
The anime adapts ten of the thirteen total chapters of Volume 7.
What to Expect From The Sleepy Princess in the Demon Castle Manga?
As is common with these types of anime that rely on skits more than linear plots, the anime jumped all over the place with what it adapts. For example, the final episode adapts moments from Chapter 84 as well as from Chapter 33. In fact, it was trying to make more cohesive plot points, but while actually pretty successful in doing that, the anime skips a lot in between – some of it important to character development later.
As such, I recommend reading the Sleepy Princess in the Demon Castle manga from the beginning.
Is The Sleepy Princess in the Demon Castle Manga Over?
The Sleepy Princess in the Demon Castle manga is still ongoing. Since launching in 2016, it has slowed its release pace to a cozy three-volumes per year pace.
Will There Be A Sleepy Princess in the Demon Castle Season 2?
Unfortunately, there has been no official announcement of a Sleepy Princess in the Demon Castle Season 2 anime.
Slice of life, skit-based comedy anime either get one season or like eight seasons. Unfortunately, I don’t think this one hit the right notes of popularity to be the latter despite have tons of content left that it could adapt.
