Should You Read from the Beginning?

It's worth it if you have the time. Manga typically has details that don't make it into the anime — inner monologues, side characters getting more screen time, and sometimes entire arcs that were cut. That said, if you just want to know what happens next, jumping ahead to where the anime stopped is totally fine.
