Comic Continues After Novel’s Conclusion
While the comic is still ongoing, the original The Beginning After The End web novel has already concluded. Written by TurtleMe, the novel officially ended in 2025, leaving the comic adaptation to continue adapting the remaining story.
Following the completion of the series, TurtleMe launched a new book franchise titled Soul Forged.
Where to Read The Beginning After The End
Readers interested in the original novel can purchase it in digital and audiobook formats through Amazon. Although physical editions have been announced, they have yet to be released.
The ongoing comic adaptation is available exclusively on Tapas, with new chapters published weekly.
Anime Expands the Franchise
The success of the series has also extended to television with an anime adaptation. The second season aired during the Spring 2026 anime season, and both seasons are currently available to stream on Crunchyroll.
At present, there has been no official announcement regarding a third season.
Neither Manga Nor Manhwa
Despite often being grouped alongside Japanese and Korean comics, The Beginning After The End is neither a manga nor a manhwa.
The series was originally created as an English-language web comic before being translated into multiple languages. Although its artwork and storytelling draw inspiration from Japanese-style comics, it was developed primarily for an English-speaking audience.
Its reincarnation-based storyline has frequently been compared with Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation, contributing to the misconception that the series originated in Japan.
With the original novel complete and the comic continuing its weekly releases, The Beginning After The End remains one of the most closely followed fantasy web comic series, while fans continue to await news on the future of its anime adaptation.
