Asking you all since I can’t decide an answer to my own hypothetical question….

The FAQ said vol 4 but I just skimmed vol 3 and it seems the job interview takes place then, so where should I start?
Is it possible to pick up the novels where the anime ends? I believe it would be at vol. 19?
I mean, that's obviously a lot of content to read to catch up on, i understand there are things that have been left out.
I like exploring literary limits and extremes, and I feel as though this is one I have yet to visit. I want something that would make me regret picking it up before I were to even finish page 1.
And before anybody suggests it, I already thought of Ulysses.
Thank you!
Getting most of the bibliography why it's so cheap on ebook sites and wanted to know which version is "better"
Hi, Reddit! Posting here because I think you guys would understand. I grew up poor but luckily got a ticket out in the form of a scholarship. I got into a rather heated discussion today about, of all things, white rice and meat. He was adamant that I needed to stop eating them to lose weight, and I was adamant that rice was a non-negotiable part of my life. He also claimed that it was unethical to keep eating meat, with the meat industry’s reputation. I got really mad, and I couldn’t figure out why it was upsetting me so much.
When I thought about why I cared about rice so much, I realized that it was because I grew up surrounded by people who would treasure every grain of rice, or piece of meat they could get their hands on. The fattier the better. My family couldn’t even afford white rice (we ate brown because it was ironically cheaper before the health craze) until about a decade ago. I realized that the reason I was so attached to the particular grain was because it was a signifier of class and wealth. However, when I got to that point, the truly wealthy had already moved on. Rather than rice and rich meat, the truly wealthy now drink oat milk and eat $16 salads. No matter how much I try, I can’t pay to eat salads. It’s insane.
I realized then that being poor sticks with you in all the little choices you make. All of my friends are well off (their parents paid for a private college), and they would laugh at the way I would count the price difference between two brands of eggs, or how I aggressively went after the most financially secure job I could find. They could afford to pursue their passion, but I have 4 grandparents, 6 uncles and aunts, 2 parents and a brother to support. They would opt for an Uber over public transportation to save time, while I would walk 2 miles for groceries.
Despite ‘making it’, my everyday decisions and habits betray my social class, and it’s so hard to unlearn. I feel like I could never let go of white rice, and I wonder what other little habits you have that betrays your background.
I really interested in reading the novels of the series though I am not sure whether I should start from the first arc or pick up the novels right after the newest episode?
If I start from the first arc should I read it entirely from the light novels and read the translated web novels for the arcs that were not translated into English yet or should I only use the web novels?
Also how come the second arc of the web novel was not translated? I mean I am not complaining of course since they are all fan translations though it seems odd to be left out? Is it considered a boring arc by the community?
I’ve watched and rewatched Re:Zero 3-4 times at this point and I think it’s an amazing anime. I’ve been pretty hyped up about season two but it got delayed because of covid and I’m starting to get impatient. Should I bite the bullet and pick up the light novel or just wait until season two comes out? (I’m not a Rem simp either I’m somewhat aware of what happens to her and Subaru was my favorite character if that changes anything)
Is she smelling my hand that I throw it with? She is so beautiful and amazing. She blows my hair back every day.
I’m blowing the the series currently and wondering if I should pick up the web novel
