hedonistic/shameless mcs that don't cross into cruel immorality but rather just the vague asshole genre

i love this character archetype the best. they're hilarious. 

edit: i fuck around with the list's hierarchy every once in a while like this is the mii plaza

um. not really hedonistic/shameless but it's like. idk. it's like a very dark variant of this list i made, probably because this manhwa genre is definitely mostly psychological, and therefore wasn't what this list was catered to in the first place. but for some reason, feels rigth u know

okay i'm going off of the light novel. if there was a myer briggs type for that two-dimensional, op, second-gen rich kid (ie sung jinwoo) personality type, this kid would score that. except in the manhwa he actually expresses more than 3.2 gatorade bottles of emotion, so maybe he doesn't belong on this list tbh.

he's not really hedonistic or shameless, he's just assholish and it feels wrong to not toss him in here even though he doesn't qualify via the method named in this list's title. you know when you use a diff equation and somehow end up with the same answer for a math problem? yeah this mc is that correct answer but not the equation. tbh, sjw's personality is like drywall and him being an asshole is funny only 50% of the time. i want to kick his balls lmao.

most definitely. she is rather self-aware in terms of being morally grey and that she can be playing god at times, therefore whenever she does dish out retribution it feels less petty and more enjoyable. but, she can be an asshole at times given her blatant (playful?) disregard for others' opinions and pulling all the shots to get what she wants, as long as it doesn't go over certain boundaries.

tbh not even vague assholish, just disregards others for the sake of his opportunistic personality, which like, go girl go !!

the logistics are all over the place, but it's still hype to read. the characters are 2D and there r plotholes/weird pacing if you use your brain while reading this, so just don't and instead focus on intense art. in that sense it's kind of like solo leveling, except SL has a more stable plotline even if sjw has the character depth of a soysauce plate. MC is likeable due to the comedy + affection the art conveys, but in the novel he's honestly just a self-absorbed ass LOL

What can a LIST do?

You may feel your favorite manga should be gathered together into distinct categories for your own reference and, now, you can do this with a LIST. After you've created your list or lists, you can proudly recommend them to other manga fans to showcase and share your taste in manga.

This is the most specific list title I've seen and you've made me realize I like this type of characters too

lukewarn_piss October 26, 2024 7:48 pm

LOL my list titles are like those damn japanese mangas called "i transmigrated into a new world and got kicked out of the hero's party for having a support skill, only to realize it turns out my trash vocational skill was SSSR~!!"

lukewarn_piss October 26, 2024 7:46 pm

YA it did, i took it off at the time bc i thought he didn't fit the vibes (he was too good i think) but now i feel like i gotta reread that to make sure, or to make sure he didn't go on another list. i do remember the manhwa you said, tho- MC was pretty asf.

okay i love this list and your reviews. unapologetic and straight to the point. it is so nice to finally see another list that's informal and for shits n giggles. thank you for the list!

lukewarn_piss October 26, 2024 7:49 pm

aweeee this comment is so sweet :D i'm glad you enjoy my casual commentary

MoodiBoi November 26, 2023 2:00 am

Hey hey! So I'm diving into this list and wandering if MCs that are basically the devil but in a lovable way are in concluded in this list? Ranging from righteous goals with morally questionable methods to achieve them to questionable moral goal with questionable ways to reach them that can br misunderstood as brave/outgoing when really its down right terrible

lukewarn_piss October 26, 2024 7:51 pm

sup! sorry for the late reply, but ya i would say a ton of characters on this list typically fall along that range, though i can't list any specifics off the to fo my head. i would say the first page, most fit the 2nd description you've offered though. "return of the crazy demon" fits the first description, i'd say!

bbiihoo October 20, 2023 12:21 am

love love love this list and your commentaries !! they're really hilarious and i picked up quite a few gems bc of the way you described them, so thanks for this list !!
(it was also thanks to this list that i found out... i had a type...)

lukewarn_piss October 26, 2024 7:51 pm

LOLLL sorry for the late reply, but i'm glad to hear you enjoyed this list :D

tofu September 25, 2023 8:26 am

lukewarn_piss October 26, 2024 7:52 pm
