Two sources give 46 chapters: one states the number and one splits its study guide into sections that end at chapter 46. Every list uses that numbering. Bookish Goblin names 24 and 28, which no other list names, so those two stay unpublished.
2 other chapters appear in only one source and are not shown.
Checked on . Guides do not all count the same way (some include chapters with kissing only), so we show the chapters at least two of them agree on and do not grade them. We list chapter numbers only: no scene summaries, no quotes and no per-chapter rating.
