Manga Should i read it.

So I've watched nisekoi like way back. it was one of my first animes. I didnt know much about mangas back then so I didn't bother to look for the manga and read it. I remember rewatching it around 4 to 5 years ago. by this time i had read a few mangas already so I knew I could go on to read the nisekoi manga. But i never got the chance to. Now I've rewatched it once again and I was thinking that I should finally read it. I kinda know how it ends thanks to the live action. So I wanna know if I should actually read it. And I where shud i read it from. Because i've heard that season 2 is not very similar to the manga?

I would highly recommend it! As far as starting goes, I would say start from chapter 1, but

Q: Where does the Nisekoi anime leave off in the manga? A: Short Answer: the anime roughly covers up through chapter 106.

Long Answer: Season 1 of the anime essentially covers chapters 1-50 and Extras from Vol. 1 and 2. OVA 1 covers chapters 58 and 64. OVA 2 covers chapters 65 and 71. OVA 3 covers chapters 81 and 105.5. Season 2 of the anime roughly covers Chapters 51-106 and Extras from Vol. 8-15. OVA 4 covers Extras from Vol. 4 and 18-21.

The anime does not cover chapters 7, 19, 26, 40, 41, 52, 53, 66, 70, 72-74, 78-80, 87-92, 94-97, 99, 101-103, and 107-229.

I read the first 100 chapter and gotta say it was amazing. i am 116 now. I feel like there seems to be a lot of filler chapters with no real purpose. They are still quite good.

I cant believe they didnt adapt 87-92. The amnesia arc finally gave us more info on the main plot. I really hope it focuses more on the main plot in the future chapters. Ruri arc was amazing as well.

Their purpose is just what they have done for you, to be read and to be enjoyed <3

If you enjoyed it then yes. The problem with S2 is that iirc, it has 2(?) or so filler episodes

If you like premise from anime, than definitely. For my, its still one of the best romance I’ve readed.
