Why did I die of laughter when reading this??

Don't worry tess don't like you either HAHAHAHA Char

Same specially after reading the spoilers for novel I'm dreading every chapter now

I fear it as well ☹

An uncle harem (●'◡'●) and it ain't a lie

Agreed

?????????????

or don’t add harem so majority of the ppl don’t drop it?

I would drop it if they added a harem. ╮(￣▽￣)╭

But it really have harem

That's why I'm requesting to add harem on the display to serve as a warning to those who does not like harem like myself.

Wait are u kidding me Σ(っ°Д °;)っ

no just no

i checked the wiki and my god







i






8 hes has 8 WIVES

wait ur being serious?? wtf

wtaf are you kidding me? PRAYING that the manhwa is different bc by god...8 wives?!

yeahhh I just checked Wiki and its true yikes. I'm not into harems so I gotta let this one go

goodbye my loverr adios

Yasss, I was shock after checking his profile. Didn't expected that HAHAHAYA

I don't want harem. Really. I am still contemplating if I'll continue to read this story. I think the story is good but I am not really into harem. I just want comradeship, adventure and action. Don't want anything about romance

Do not panic, the novel of this is already finished and wiki was updated along with it, the harem part of the story is properly displayed only in side stories, so around the 500 chapter of the novel. For comparison, we are around chapter 55 right now (I think). But the novel was a great read anyways, it's not about the harem, it's about Paradise and story. Was there fan service? Yes. And the story is completely perfect, the translation is amazing and as for the harem, at least in my opinion the final ones were all likeable.

Don't give up on SCOG, because first of all, the manhwa should be far from harem as long as it folllows the novel (what a joke) and still, the novel is extremely entertaining and worth a read anyways.

I agree, the novel was really good so i hope no one drops it bc of that. I personally am also a harem hater but in my opinion i feel like the quality of the story made up for it, as well as the fact that the girls all had a personality and were pretty likeable. It wasn't like there entire personality was going after Seol.

The romance is a very small part of the story, dont worry

Cackle

But i don't like the idea of harem itself. So, still nah.

omg what- i hate harem so much, why did it have to be in this manhwa, i actually really enjoyed this story too ╥﹏╥

Woaahh that's kinda my god holy Jesus dude

wait wait which manhwa was this again? it just popped up in my notif and i forgot abt it..

The second coming of gluttony

ah...this...i actually dropped this one, i do no like the second season at all...

same

I haven't been actively keeping up with the second season, but I can imagine. I would still say though thay the novel is worth a read. If you enjoyed at least the first season to some extent, the whole novel is really worth it. I don't remember the last time I was so excited and hyped up reading something, like I was when I read scog. It's just great.

hmm...maybe? novels are really good and i’ve tried to read webnovels before, but the quality of writing has been iffy and i’m ngl, i get strong STRONG wattpad vibes.

and honey, i do not like wattpad(●￣(ｴ)￣●)

I feel you. The first webnovel I tried to read was Returner's magic should be special and I'm sorry, I don't know if the translations were just poor or if the original novel was just written not greatly, high focus on just dialogue, short and choppy sentences, it just hurt to read it, so I gave up on trying to read novels of manhwas, but scog's translation was actually readable and I think that the translators over at wuxia world did a great job.

If it was too wattpad-ish I don't think I could have read 500 chapters of it.

For other novel comparisons from my experience, solo leveling was just slightly better than returner's magic, trash of the count's house was average but fairly boring and the second best novel was overgeared, not quite there with scog, but still pretty good.

I know these are quite specific for novels and that there is a chance of you not even knowing them, but it's the best comparison I could make, so yeah there it is.

lol ik the manhwa, just not the novels

would you say that scog has good translation writing? like, it’s descriptive, coherent and doesn’t sound ridiculous?

In a manhwa, i can get when the writing isn’t wonderfully perfect and emotive, since it’s mainly a visual stimuli, but reading is a totally different story. You don’t get pictures or pretty art to look at if the writing or script is shit.

And tbh, scog lost its charm in the second season. I was literally in love with the art and story and shit, but now i’m not so sure.

does the novel maintain the feel of the first season? i’ve heard that the artist tried to make the second season more like the og storyline of the webnovel

Yeah, the writing of the novel is just fine, it has everything that you need for it to be interesting and eyecatching. Worth your attention. But I have to day that season 1 of the manhwa was decent, not really good but just enough to keep you reading. After reading the novel I have realized just how much of a mistake season 1 was. I made a whole rant once before already and to sum it all up, they just skipped important plot, very important characters, all that actual character development.


Whole if scog is a story about how a gambler that didn't care about anything becomes something more. Oh god, the character development in this is so damn great. Just remembering about the development that seol jihu went through to become who he is now at the end of it all just puts a smile on my face.


Yes, the second season is different, but it's not bad different, because even the first season was something bad as it was. The novel contains everything you are in need of to enjoy the experience. To just sit back and keep your thoughts occupied. I legit cried towards the end, like full on tears streaming down my face without stopping and I think that not a lot of stories have the power to do. Especially in this isekai novel genre.

You can just try to give it a read, first 10 chapters are enough to tell if the writing us good enough for your standards and if it is then you can just read it and experience it for yourself, because it's just great.

I know that this is a long message but this conversation with you reminded me how dear scog was to me when I was reading it like 5 months ago. Now I feel very tempted to even reread it, because it's just that great.

Yes, but in the manhwa it was actually really really nice anyways, not the annoying type. Spoiler for the number in case you were curious
















I hope this works fine: 8 but technically 9 wives

how did he even- (⊙…⊙ )

It didn't work fine for the reply, but oh well. And I mean, Seol is a special mf and it's not really a surprise, because like damn. Have you seen the cover of the novel. He looks so fine and the character development in the novel was so so perfect.

oh yeah he's fine as hell hahaah so any jealous moments between the wives etc?

If I remember correctly there was some jealousy for his attention in the part of builiding it all up, but really the major part of it is in the side stories, which I haven't gotten to yet, so I can't tell.

aiteee thanks a lot btww!!

Their pride and ego is more important to them.
