Hey Anon! Aww I’m glad you are wishing to give the manga a chance, it’s way better than the anime :))))
I don’t know if you meant Book of Circus and Book of Murder when you meant “all anime” though, so I’m just going to explain where the arcs start and what’s the link with the animes so you can see where you want to start 🙂
-> If you’ve only watched s1 (and s2, not that s2 is important):
- either you start reading the manga from ch6 to onward (and it takes up after episode 4 of S1 onto the Jack the Ripper arc)
- or you start reading from ch14 (and it takes up after episode 6 of S1 after the Jack the Ripper arc and onto the Curry arc)
Now, even if you’ve watched Book of Circus (and Book of Murder?), I’d still advise to read the manga version of these arcs, because of the amazing art and because a few minor scenes were not included in the animated adaptations.
Basically here is how the manga works:
- From ch6 to ch14: the Jack the Ripper arc (same as in s1, except for ch14 that wasn’t adaptated)
- From ch15 to ch23: the Curry Arc (not faithfully adaptated in s1, because Angela’s character doesn’t exist + the end is… different)
- From ch24 to ch36-37: the Circus arc (aka the anime Book of Circus, ch37 wasn’t adaptated)
- From ch38 to ch50: the Murders at Manor arc (aka the 2 OVAs Book of Murder)
The animated adaptations currently stop with Book of Murder, even if Book of the Atlantic (a movie) will come out in January 2017, covering the Campania arc (though we have yet to see whether this will be faithful to the manga’s content or not).
So depending on what you watched, you can start where you want 🙂 The arcs that have yet to be animated being:
- From ch51 to ch66: the Campania arc (soon covered by Book of the Atlantic)
- From ch67 to ch85: the Weston arc
- From ch86 to ch107: the Green Witch arc
- From ch108 to currently on going: the Blue Sect arc
I’d personally advise you to start either on ch6 or ch14, depending on what you remember of the Jack the Ripper arc, but really take your pick :))
I hope it helps Anon! Have a nice day/evening :))
