After Season 1, in the books you are

at Volume 8 (around manga chapter 64).

anime S1 ends around manga chapter 63 or 64.

The first season adapts the manga's opening chapters through roughly chapter 63/64 (end of the Death Painting / Origin of Obedience storyline). Sources vary on whether the season closes on chapter 63 or 64, so start reading at chapter 64 to be safe. The next arc is Gojo's Past.

What the show changed here

  • CutSeason 1 is a close, largely faithful adaptation; only minor connective beats are trimmed.
Sources disagree slightly on this one, so we used the earlier chapter. You may re-read a little rather than risk reading past yourself.

MAPPA's anime tracks Gege Akutami's manga closely. Season 2 does reorder the opening (it front-loads the Hidden Inventory / Gojo's Past flashback before the Shibuya Incident), but each season still lands on a clean chapter boundary.
