Usually the LN is better, that's because changes have been made to improve the story. Sometimes the changes are minor, sometimes it's whole arcs that are added so things make more sense. All in all the overall story is the same. At this point the released translated LN is far behind the translated WN, so you need to decide fer yourself. In my opinion neither is better than the other, I completed the WN ages ago so now I am pretty much just reading again.

Any idea how far the LN is on the WB?
Have read the WB around the time the manga started so can't remember much however the story seems to both change and go on track after Cal Mira Saga and was curious to know "where" exactly we are (also to have an idea of how many more books we'll get!)

Thanks!

Well, the web novel is basically the prototype version of the light novel.

The storyline of WN and LN remain mostly the same up to the Cal Mira arc, where the story starts to diverge. Stuff occurs differently and new characters are introduced. After that, The Spirit turtle incident seems to start like in the WN, but then goes off in a totally different direction when the time comes to finish it. Then you get a totally new arc, where you meet a bunch of new people and Glass' character gets fleshed out and a whole lot of interesting stuff happens. I've only read up to volume 8, so dunno what happens afterwards.

Either way, I definitely recommend the LN version. It's a definite improvement over the WN.


Oh, and fennel, can't really tell how far it is compared to the WN at this point. After Cal Mira, the story starts to contradict the WN quite a bit (in a good way, things make much more sense), so you can't say for sure. For instance, Raph-chan gets introduced in Volume 8, rather than the WN, where Raph-chan appears much later (with a different origin story too)

Thanks for the input ;)

The LN is a really good improvement and like you said the changes completes the story pretty well! Up until now the only thing from the WB I enjoyed more was the Team-Exchange on Cal Mira, though i wanted a Raph-chan army XD
I'm patiently waiting for Vol12 to reach my mailbox now :P
