I love this, don't get me wrong... But I feel as if the storytelling is a little off. The beginning was fantastic, it caught my attention immediately and made me feel sympathy for the MC, but now it's paced weirdly. I don't know if it's because they keep focusing on random things, but honestly it feels like a ton of filler chapters. It's been 91 chapters and I feel like the MC still has a lot of growing to do in the martial arts world, plus when they focus on other people (like the martial alliance) it's a bit... annoying? I'm never looking forward to the chapters without MC, it really doesn't make sense to write multiple chapters without him when he's the center of the story.
Murim manhwa is great if you read it whole in one sitting
You're completely right
I get what you mean but this is honestly a good compromise for being one of the only good manhwas out there that has good story telling +pacing no annoying females and a reasonable mc he doesn't go around killing everyone and his place in the martial world is shown well he's super strong but he still can't be compared to the strongest like the old man
I agree, chapters w/o him are so lonely… but at the same time world building can be important. Can’t really have new season of folks just coming to mountain to challenge him, and if he got his full revenge as soon as he met his sister, the story would be over, personally I let the chapters w/o him cook and just checked comments for his return then binged it! As far as him still needing to grow, guess he’s met a new grandpa to teach him a thing or two.
It’s either OP from the go and just plow through or slower building of skills, I like and read both myself. ALSO I LOVE that there’s no annoying girls (yet
After reading so many comics, I can thoroughly say that having women in the comic or romance doesn't taint it since it all depends on how it's written. If the romance became the forefront or if it became harem, ESPECIALY when the women are needy that is when it becomes annoying. I agree that it's great that he isn't the strongest right now, but they are running around bragging as if they are.
World building is very important! I just wish they were smarter about how they wrote it. A lot of the time I don't mind how they do world building in other comics, it's usually something I don't complain about. Idk, it just feels awkward in this comic? But you're right, full revenge right at the get-go wouldn't be fun whatsoever. I might binge read it too after about 10 chapters
I love this author's tropes and art style. All of their comics are so cute, the fact that they made a morbidly cute one is so them. I feel as if this author is so fantastic with fluff that all of their work, no matter what, will have SOME sort of fluffy element to it. It's sad knowing that both of their other works are short, got me anxious about this one being short too. Their stories definitely could go on forever with how their storytelling skills are.
This is so cute, trying to pep each other up and boost each other's morale only to fall for each other. Augh I want to fall in love like this
Damn tried finding the raws but couldn't find a thing! I'm so curious as to how this'll play out!
You are the bomb LMAO
I try
Shittttttttt should've waited until 20+ chapters were out
Man, I can stare at this art all day. Their expressions, the way the colors mesh so well together and the lightness of the lineart is everything. This artist is so fantastic and they're such a great storyteller that I'm constantly on the edge of my seat for more. Like PLS CONFESS, KILL THAT ASSHOLE, LET YOUR GUARD DOWN, I NEED MORE sorta shit. LMAO
I def think Eishin still has his memories, either he doesn't want to keep seeing Aesis die or he thinks staying away will prevent their early deaths. But at the beginning, Aesis almost died anyway... So if it's because of the second reason, then it wouldn't work. If it's the first, it's understandable. Watching your loved one die over and over and over has got to be one of THE worst things a person can go through.
If he actually has memory loss but he can't control how much he cares about Aesis, that'd be kind of cute still. But it'd be tragic in the way that only Aesis remembers the good and the bad. This chapter, when he was like "seems like you had fun" or whatever it was he seems a bit surprised? Like "we suffered so much but you still look back at it fondly?" sort of surprise.
OH MY GOOOOOOD THIS IS SO CUTE I wish people were more inclined to communication like this!
