In general, the LN is better than the WN. However, the WN is fully translated while the LN is not. Both translators are experienced so quality should not be an issue.
v2 and part of v3 are different from wn. seems like v2 is the point where the plot changes a bit. characters are introduced earlier so they don't randomly show up. more focus on the early team (aria, novem, and Lyle, in addition to a new character sophia) some of the characters were slightly altered, better foreshadowing in LN WN is complete. LN is being translated. I'd say, WN (it is a bit of a chore to power through the first few chapters, but it gets really good halfway through, or you can start with LN which is a revised version of it). Your choice. both are worth imo
I feel like I favored the LN too much. Like, the only reason I'm reading the LN is cause the WN was great. also you're welcome
Even though LN is more polished, I would recommend web novel. Not because WN is complete, but even with all the flaws, the character development, their strength, their interactions, everything is what author wanted to write. LN is more mainstream with more cliches and more OP MC.
Thanks. But i gotta ask how did you stumble onto this post that's a year and a half old? Did you go down the rabbit hole that is the scroll?
Nope, currently LN vol 10 translated. Plus i notice that LN has extra one volume then WN. I think(i might be wrong one extra volume thing but) LN volume 3 wasnt in WN. I didnt check in JP but TL group "bakapervert" is(are?) working fast. So i think LN vol 11 didnt release in JP? PS: OP might ask again "after all this time how did you get here" just as Jarhead says "google"
