Demon Lord 2099 Light Novels to End With Sixth Volume
A six-volume run and a finished anime leaves the series a closed property, with the English releases still working through a backlog the Japanese end has now capped.

Kadokawa's Fantasia Bunko imprint announced on Tuesday that Daigo Murasaki and illustrator Kureta's Demon Lord 2099 light novel series will end with its sixth volume. The first volume was released under Kadokawa in January 2021, and the fifth volume in November 2025. Yen Press releases the novels in English, and the series inspired an anime that debuted on Tokyo MX, Gunma TV, Tochigi TV, and BS11 in October 2024.
The sixth volume will be the last, per Fantasia Bunko. Volume five arrived in November 2025, so the gap before the final book is a matter of the print schedule rather than any announced change in direction.
The property spread across formats: Yen Press handles the novels and Yutaka Sakurai's manga adaptation in English, and the anime ran on Tokyo MX, Gunma TV, Tochigi TV, and BS11 from October 2024, with Crunchyroll streaming it in several regions and dubbing it in English.
