Considering the last part of s3 was totally new. Yea just start from #1 faggot.

Always better

The best thing would be starting from the beginning. But If you really want to skips some volumes then start from last chapter of vol.4 I think. It shows first effects of the truce they got. And keep in mind that Issei had his arm turn into real dragon arm with scales and shit and not just simple Boosted Gear appearing.
Read it with series OST as it's seriously good.
Season 3 beside like 3 first episodes went full "fuck logic and LN plot".

Wasn't there supposed to be a new sidestory out soon with Elmenhilde in it? Any news on that?

Read a Demon among Devils instead.

>Its not like the anime skipped too much right?
Anime did well until S3, which was pretty much rewritten as a whole, start with volume 5 if you really don't want to read through them after seeing the anime

>>147656192
Read it from the beginning. Don't make the newfag mistake of starting from the anime end-point for anime LN or manga. The transition is never seamless and the difference between watching anime and reading a novel is so vastly different that you will likely regret having skipped so many volumes. You're reading an ecchi series for fucks sake don't skip ahead just for the sake of saving time.

Wasn't there a bonus volume released that retconned S3? Is that translated?

You're probably thinking about the old SS being compiled in DX.3.

You're talking about EX it's also on Baka-Tsuki.

Some differences in the first 4 LN
-There are more echi events in the anime
-Explain various passive skill that Issei learn after he become a demon (The most notable is that he can speak every language, because this he can speak with Asia even is she is a foreign)
-Add some foreshadowing like that Rias explain that already have a bishop, but he cant use yet vs raiser(Gasper) and Kiba heard about a Sacred sword user gets angry
-Rearrange various events (The most notable is that Irina reappear in the event on LN4 in the anime, meanwhile this happen in LN7)

>finally reading Volume 22 Life.2
Feels good to finally see Issei becoming a high-class devil.
