Notes for nerds

Per-episode volume numbers come from the TenSura Fandom wiki episode infoboxes and volume 'Adaptations' sections. Volume numbers are the Japanese GC Novels light novel volumes (finished at Vol. 23, Nov 29, 2025); the Kodansha manga is numbered differently. Episode numbers restart each season (overall numbers are in each part's note); some platforms show the overall numbers instead. Not included because they are anime-original or do not adapt main light novel volumes: the films 'The Movie: Scarlet Bond' (2022) and 'Tears of the Azure Sea' (2026), the 5 OADs, 'The Slime Diaries', 'Visions of Coleus' (adapts a side novel), the 'Ramiris' ONA, and the recap/digression specials. A few episodes mix anime-original material (e.g. S2 ep. 6).
