stories that had me hooked

this is a fun fantasy romp with some really good plot and mystery
the story moves along super fast
i personally think the harem element is kind of annoying but at least its done pretty well, if thats ur thing you'll love it

"One day, the five heroes from the legends appeared in my front yard.
The antidote I made without thinking worked?! Really?"

this is a pretty fun time travel / isekai

"Ling Chen lived as a villain for 35 years, but in the final battle with the hero Ye Muxue, he "initialized" reset-reborn back to 17! what? Do you think he wants to be human again? Less talk! Of course, it's time to kill Ye Mu, who wasn't super powered at that time!"

the art alone is worth reading the story, but it is also super compelling!!
it took me like 3 days to read because I had to stop and process

"A mysterious taoist guru, Moon-Ryeong and an emotionless winter boy, Paljae, met at the dead ocean.
