：Honzuki No Gekokujou: Dai 5-Bu Todaeta Chishiki Wo Tsunageyou!: [2026 Brief Q&A - Answering Frequently Asked Questions about Honzuki No Gekokujou] This article answers your questions about Honzuki No Gekokujou, written by author Miya Kazuki. Hopefully, those new to Honzuki No Gekokujou will learn more about the story through this article. Most of the questions have been answered in this article, so please read carefully before asking further questions. 1. What is the origin of Honzuki No Gekokujou?
Honzuki was first written by author Miya Kazuki as a Web Novel (WN), essentially a "online novel," and was posted for free on the popular Japanese website Narou. The Honzuki WN was completed in 2017 with 667 chapters and several Side Stories (SS). Many famous Light Novels also started as WNs, and Honzuki is one of them.

After attracting many readers with its web novel, Honzuki was published by Tobooks in collaboration with author Miya Kazuki. After many stages of editing and revision, Honzuki was officially adapted into a light novel (the main content closely follows the web novel but includes many other stories) in Tankoubo format with illustrations by artist You Shiina for commercialization (made into books for sale). To date, the Honzuki light novel has achieved great success not only in terms of sales but also in terms of accolades, winning numerous prestigious light novel awards annually. 3. Structure of the Honzuki WN/LN? The Honzuki light novel is divided into parts. Currently, the main story of Honzuki is divided into 5 parts: - Part 1 (3 volumes): Heishi no musume (兵士の娘 ~ The Soldier's Daughter).
- Part 2 (4 volumes): Shinden no miko minarai (神殿の巫女見習い ~ A novice nun at the Shinto Shrine). - Part 3 (5 volumes): Ryoushu no youjo (領主の養女 ~ The Lord's adopted daughter). - Part 4 (9 volumes): Kizoku-in no jishou tosho iin (貴族院の自称図書委員 ~ Self-proclaimed librarian at the Noble Academy). - Part 5 (12 volumes): Megami no keshin (女神の化身 ~ The Goddess's transformation). The Japanese Honzuki light novel series has currently completed its main story with 33 volumes and many other spin-off light novels. 4. Honzuki anime?
The Honzuki anime is adapted from the light novel. To date, the anime has 4 seasons, with the first 3 seasons comprising 36 episodes, 2 OVAs, and 2 summaries. Season 4 is currently airing and is announced to have 2 cours. However, up to Season 3, the anime only covers the first two parts of the Honzuki light novel, and Season 4 is expected to cover the equivalent of Season 3's content. If you want to continue watching Honzuki from Season 3, please start reading from Season 3 (Manga/Light Novel). Season 4 of the Honzuki anime has been transferred from Ajiadou to WIT Studio and will air starting April 4th, 2026. Let's look forward to and discuss the anime with the Page and Group!
5. Honzuki's manga? Honzuki's manga has the same structure as WN/LN. Currently, there are many manga adaptations of light novels (with already established storylines) with corresponding official Japanese links: - Part 1 (Mangaka: Suzuka-sensei - Completed): https://to-corona-ex.com/comics/20000000018228 - Part 2 (Mangaka: Suzuka-sensei - Completed): https://to-corona-ex.com/comics/20000000037068 - Part 3 (Mangaka: Ryo Namino-sensei): https://to-corona-ex.com/comics/20000000034334 - Part 4 (Mangaka: Hikaru Katsuki-sensei): https://to-corona-ex.com/comics/20000000051070 - Part 5 (Mangaka: Suzuka-sensei): https://to-corona-ex.com/comics/234900601176268 - Hannelore part (Mangaka: Kusakabe Rei-sensei): https://to-corona-ex.com/comics/221968848830652
- Ferdinand (Mangaka: Chikarikomori-sensei): https://to-corona-ex.com/comics/244043515510999 With manga parts 1 and 2 completed, the other parts are still ongoing, released concurrently rather than ending one part before the next (because the manga is adapted from light novels and handled by different mangaka). Typically, there will be one new chapter (JP - raw) per month for all ongoing parts, not necessarily on the same day of the month. Each new chapter is free to read until the next chapter is available at the official link above.
Once enough content is available, the chapters will be compiled and printed for publication as a manga volume (a single book for official sale). Each manga volume will include an additional special chapter and a side story (SS) written by the author, which will not be officially published online. Additionally, Honzuki has a spin-off manga titled Honzuki no Gekokujou: Koshiki Komikku Ansoroji. As the name suggests, this manga compiles short side stories from Honzuki, with chapters drawn by various mangaka. This manga can only be purchased as a physical copy and is not available for online preview like the four volumes above, as published by Tobooks.In Japan, in addition to its main commercial products, light novels and manga, Honzuki is also published by Tobooks, which produces many other spin-off products. These include Goods, CD Dramas (featured chapters from the light novel are voiced by seiyuu on CDs), Audiobooks (also voiced chapters from the book, but mainly by the seiyuu of Myne/Rozemyne Iguchi Yuka-san), Fanbooks (mainly answering and clarifying readers' questions about the world and content of Honzuki), Junior Bunko (as the name suggests, this book is in Bunko format with the same main content as the light novel but with more illustrations by other artists like You Shiina and simplified, easy-to-understand language aimed at younger readers), Short Stories (a collection of side stories from various supporting characters about the events in the main story, revealing many plot points unknown to Rozemyne), and Sequel Hannelore (a light novel with the main perspective of the character Hannelore, with a timeline continuing after the 33 main light novel volumes)..
6. What are other official Honzuki products and books? Among the most notable are the Fanbooks. To create the Fanbooks, author Miya Kazuki posts questions from readers, answers them, and compiles them into a book. Therefore, the Fanbooks contain a wealth of interesting information, not only satisfying readers' curiosity but also showcasing the vastness and intricacy of the Honzuki world, with details like the interlocking teeth explained more clearly in the Fanbooks that the light novel cannot cover. For this reason, most publishers of Honzuki in other countries will eventually purchase the rights to publish the Fanbooks. The Fanbooks are a must-read if you want to delve deeper into Honzuki.

The Page's Manga translation is an unofficial translation, primarily aimed at promoting this story to more Vietnamese readers. However, since the Honzuki Manga has already been licensed, we hope everyone will support Orion Publishing with the licensed Honzuki Manga in Vietnam. Usually, the Page will post a translation every two weeks after the raw manga is available. Currently, the Page is translating parts 3, 4, 5, and the Ferdinand part. Because we move frequently, please follow the Page and Group to know where the translations will be posted. Please interact and introduce Honzuki to others to support the Page!
8. Order/Should you watch the Anime, Manga, or Light Novel (WN)? Most people will know Honzuki through the Anime, so if you want to continue reading after the 3 seasons of the Anime (which only cover the first 2 parts of the LN/Manga), then continue from LN/Manga Part 3. However, it must be said that the Anime has omitted many valuable details that help us understand the beauty of the Honzuki world and the author's brilliance. Of course, the Manga also has some parts omitted compared to the LN, so if possible, you should reread the LN from the beginning to fully appreciate the story.
The web novel (WN) is considered the draft that the author uses to write the light novel (LN). Comparing the two, both have their own merits and are worth reading. However, the WN is very limited for Vietnamese readers as there are almost no complete, polished English versions, and the Vietnamese version has been dropped. If you know Japanese, reading the WN is a truly satisfying experience worth trying. Otherwise, the LN is a sufficient choice for exploring Honzuki. Afterwards, head to the Fanbook to understand the details of the story even more deeply.
Although considered divided into parts, each part of Honzuki has a very strong connection to the previous parts, so if you don't understand the earlier parts, you won't be able to fully understand what happens next. The Honzuki light novel is really long, but it's also a truly worthwhile work for readers to follow along with the story! 9. Where to read the licensed Honzuki light novel/manga? Here, I will only mention two versions suitable for Vietnamese fans: the English and Vietnamese versions. The licensed English light novel (not free): https://j-novel.club/series/ascendance-of-a-bookworm The licensed Vietnamese light novel: has been published by Sky Light Novel as a book under the title "The Rebellion of a Bookworm Girl". You can find it on online bookstores.
The Vietnamese version of the licensed manga is also under the title "The Bookworm Girl's Rebellion." You can find it on various online bookstores. We also have convenient e-books available. To support copyright, most free light novel translation groups have stopped translating Honzuki. Our page and group will not share links to pirated light novels/manga. (We're not encouraging it, but honestly, if you want to, you can easily find pirated English versions of the light novel, and that's why we don't want to distribute them.) 10.
