Re-explaining why the new art looks "awful" since people still want to hate on it.
The old artist preferred work with colour, the new artist prefers to work with line and shape. Artstyles can tell you a lot about the artist, and to me it's very apparent that each artist prefers a different part of the process. The old artist seems to prefer colouring and shading, whereas the new artist prefers lineart.
Neither artstyle is objectively bad, and neither is objectively better than the other.
It's just that the old artist had very bland, simple lineart, because he needed to save time in order to do gradients and shade properly, since he does soft-shading a lot more.
The new artist doesn't need to do soft-shading, nor do they have the time, because they put a lot more effort into their lineart. The lineart varies in weight a lot more, and they use harsher colours, which also adds a lot more contrast in comparison to the older art, where everything is a lot more blended and lighter.
Instead of soft-shading, the new artist uses a lot more harsher shadows, that tend to follow the lineart. Styles with heavy lineart and flatter colours are actually better for action-oriented comics because the shape and direction of movement tends to be a lot easier to follow in fight scenes.
It's so jarring because the old artist tended to paint in a way the blended everything together, which isn't bad. It just gives this sense of "everything belongs together".
The new artist, however, prefers clarity and tries to make each thing distinct from each other (again, not a bad thing). They also work with values a lot more, and there's more contrast., hence why the colours looks so different.
Yeah, that's it. It's really that simple.
Seriously, looking back at the older chapters DAMN everyone got yaoi-fied. Vercy used be more of a twink than Sunwon.

One of my most favourite manhwas ever. Like actual, so pissed this was axed. :(
The concept tackles godhood and religion, but in a very nice and narrative-driven way rather than being preachy. My only critique is that I wish the side characters, like Bakman, were given a lot more depth. The story is very world-building driven. Only Urich and Varca ever seem to do something for themselves as characters in a natural way imo. Everyone else seems to be forced to progress so Urich and/or Varca can.
Any stories that tackle the concept of gods in general? Like pose skeptic questions and shit/have characters that are atheists, doubt the existence of gods.
For example, if you catch my drift:

I'll take recs where the MC is a god/goddess though!
I'm still SUPER fucking salty this got axed. I know I can read the novel, but action media is SO much easier to digest in a visual form, and also the art was god-tier so I am mad.
Does anybody know any stories with a gyaru and/or gyaruo character that ISN'T just tan and blonde hair, and maybe some animal print.
I want the full shabang. I want the character to fully embody the lifestyle, the make-up, be aware they're a gyaru and actually identify as such etc. I'd also smother someone with kisses if it had characters of other substyles we don't usually see (Hime, Manba, Rokku, etc.)
NO straight up smut, but it can be PWP if it's BL. I'd prefer Slice of Life/Romance tho.

I' trying to remember this name of one BL where the MC was an older guy who liked collecting/making stuffed animals, but hid it. He gets with a younger guy that likes the hobby?
I just remember the scene where the younger guy finds all the stuffed toys and the MC gets really embarrassed.
Sorry for it being a bit bare bones, but that's all I can remember about it; does anybody know what I'm talking about? (Or any similar stories for reccs please )
