Maine, Lutz, and the rest of the gang from one of the most adorable and relaxing slice of life is coming back this April and that is in the upcoming anime from the fall 2019 lineupAscendance of a Bookworm season 2. If I have to recall my experience of watching this anime last year, it all started a little bit dull but slowly rise to the top among my list of favorite anime from that season. Well, who wouldn’t fall in love with Main — our main protagonist who got transmigrated into another world and the only desire she has is to read books but in search of books to read, she had a life-changing experience in this unknown new world. Yes,Ascendance of a Bookworm is another isekai anime story but is quite unique and that sets it apart from the rest of other isekai stories nowadays. While we seldom see some actions, Main’s innovative idea of bringing the concepts and inventions from her world of origin into this new fantasy world had been a fascinating one and I am always enthralled of seeing that WOW factor from the faces of the people around her every time she shared new ideas to them.

had ended quite dramatically last December and we were left hanging since then, as we are craving to see how Main will conquer her terminal illness — the Ascendance of a Bookworm Devouring. How her life will change now that she entered the temple as one of the maidens. Obviously, we are also excited to see more inventions from her as she shared it with Lutz, Benno, and the rest of the merchants that we also loved.
