@yukiwa JNC has just released volume 3 of part three (there are 5 volumes in part three), and are working on the fourth.
After the 5 volumes in part three, there are NINE volumes in part four (plus a side story volume of some description), and 4 so far in part five (part five vol 5 comes out in...
For those not reading the LN - here's some spoilers about the latter half of part 2 - after where S2 left off.
Serious serious spoilers
Might've missed some stuff since I'm going from memory.
@illusion_moon Pretty much troll logic but yeah, the chain goes:
"So you're saying I'm not acting like a noble? Hmmm...
That perhaps I'm not a true noble? That maybe some commoner blood got mixed in? Hmmmmm....
That my parents weren't faithful? Hmmmmmmm....
That my mother is a filthy whore...
I love how the entire manga is basically introducing common romcom tropes, and then using 4D gymnastics to resolve them in ways which may not make sense but totally work.
Quick look seems to show only a single volume of the novel (2 years ago), so making this comicalisation seems to be the publisher jumping the gun a bit. Who knows what these publishers are thinking sometimes.
I guess they really wanted to get in on the ground floor of this single story building...

Manga part 2 is slowly catching up to the anime - Volume 4 comes out in october with a key visual being Lutz and his dad.

She simply doesn't want to have anything at...
It's like people forgot that most of part one had Tuuli, Lutz and all the other able-bodied kids foraging in the forest. These kids will just be doing it with the added excuse of doing it as part of their work for the orphanage director's business ventures.

She's gonna get so many statues.
The good:
- 100 comics in 100 days
- Properly resolved the plot
- Did both of the above while also working on a 'real' manga
The bad:
- Characters didn't really click - too much time on fluff meant they had little substance
- Seemed to be aping the flow of normal manga but didn't have the time...
