tissue-kun's Things

so, what's the big deal with solo leveling? honestly, i'm kinda confused about the hype. i read it when the manhwa was releasing, and yeah, it had some enjoyable moments.

the double dungeon setup was super slick, probably the best part of the whole series for me. and yeah, i’ll admit the shadow monarch was kinda cool, and beru was top-tier. we respect beru in this house.

but everything else? felt pretty flat. every new villain shows up, talks big, underestimates the mc, and bam, he crushes them without even trying. rinse and repeat. it’s like the story went on autopilot after a while. the characters felt half baked, like they were just there to prop up the mc instead of being developed in their own right

and the mc? man is so stoic he walks around like he is emotionally constipated. no development, no depth just a blank slate of OP-ness. shounen fans have always had a thing for mediocre stuff, but come on. i expected a bit more than endless curb stomps and empty stares.

it’s not terrible by any means, but calling it top-tier storytelling? what am i missing here? i cant be the only one

TL;DR: solo leveling starts strong, but it’s pretty rinse and repeat after that: new villain talks big, underestimates mc, gets steamrolled. the characters feel flat, and the mc’s constant blank slate attitude gets old. not really top-tier storytelling imo

p.s: the statue design of the Double Dungeon boss/king tho.. damnnnnn, that would be my hear me out now!! man is glorious

going off the previous question about shotacon, I'm curious about the demographics of creators in this genre (manhwa/manga/doujins). I know that many yaoi artists are women, so am i to believe the shotacon artists are also primarily women? I'm finding it diffuclt to wrap my head around this

idc if the characters are of age or 1000yr old, if they look like kids they look like kids. I don't want to hear any excuses here ty

i see so many semes point out locating and finding the prostate gland when they are fingering the uke.

"ah there it is", "i feel something dense here, ah found your sweet spot" , etcetc

excuse my lack of knowledge but I know how unrealistic and exaggerated sex can be in yaoi
