According to an Amazon listing, Suzuka’s manga adaptation of the second part of Miya Kazuki’s Ascendance of a Bookworm light novel series has an ending plan in place. Amazon lists the upcoming 13th volume—which is scheduled to ship in Japan on September 15—as the final volume for Part 2.
Prior to this, the 12th volume shipped in Japan on February 15. Nine volumes of the manga adaptation have shipped in English via J-Novel Club as of May 2024.
Here’s how J-Novel Club describes the series:
Myne successfully negotiates with the temple to become an apprentice blue shrine maiden, ensuring she will receive the same treatment as a noble. Her work there begins, and after such a long wait, she can finally read in the book room! But the temple’s status-based structure and her problematic attendants mean she doesn’t have it easy: she’ll need to beat society to enjoy her books in peace! This is a biblio-fantasy by book lovers, for book lovers! Part 2, begin!
Miya Kazuki’s series inspired an anime adaptation, which is set to continue with a new season in spring 2026.
