pluviophiliac's manga / #historical excellence(204)

maaaan, i’ve been reading some exceptional comics lately. as expected, nano machine didn't disappoint! i’m really looking forward to see what’s in store for this one in particular. i’m honestly stoked! binged this in one single sitting. it was most definitely worth it. :) edit: i’m trying soooo hard not to scream at loud at this point. this is INSANELY good. sighhh… yet another week shall have to pass. ;_; edit #2: OH MY GOD OH MY GOD OH MY GOD OH MY GO edit #3: i think it might be worth mentioning that i’ve now read this manhwa THRICE… by chapter 104. it’s absolutely spectacular.

man, this is good… i’m so, soooo proud of jagang. our boy deserves justice!! WE MUST UNITE AND PROTECT HIM AT ALL COSTS!!! seriously though, it don’t think i’ve ever come across an MC this resolute. it’s crazy admirable, goddamn. either way, things keep getting more and more interesting the further in i get. and i have no idea what to expect from all these characters, either! i’d bet my left pinkie finger it’ll either be something ridiculously epic or thoroughly bone-chilling. i’d say it’s a solid 50/50 chance. mang ryo is ACTUAL filth, though… and i’m borderline obsessed with this paradoxical notion, lololol. talk about a master of deception!i don’t know whether i should laugh or cry, admire or recoil. he’s so fucking scary. the joker of ancient china. i’m not even exaggerating.

i’m really enjoying this, although it’s difficult to keep up with all these characters and their affiliations. i suppose paecheon palace and their allies are the bad guys…? i have no real clue as to what’s going on, but i’m loving the fights and the dynamic nonetheless, so hopefully i’ll start to grasp these unfolding events soon enough! edit: i adore so-mun and he deserves the world. i just want him to be happy!!! my precious lil’ bean. edit #2: well, he’s kinda murderous… but still a precious (!) lil’ bean. edit #3: ohhhh, fuuuck. edit #4: OHHHMAAAGAAAWD, SHE PREGGERS!!!!!! i love this manhwa. edit #5: welp. that got dark real quick. sighhhh.

haha, four chapters in and i can already tell that this is about to become a favorite. amazing! edit: this is so fascinating!!! this is PACKED with complex and interesting characters. the plot’s amazing, too! it seems as though i really hit the jackpot with this one. edit #2: such an IMMENSE power elite, wow. i’m so weak for shit like this. i’m struggling to contain myself, lol. it just keeps getting better and better. and bira is so fucking cool!!! i love how everything’s starting to come together more and more every chapter. this is bound to have an epic conclusion later on, i’m sure. although i bet it’s a few years away from this very moment, lol. 87 chapters and it still feels like it’s only the beginning.

haven’t started reading it yet, but the cover’s sort of giving me ‘wandering warrior of wudang’ vibes, heh. edit: ONE CHAPTER IN AND I’M ALREADY SO FUCKING HYPED!!! edit #2: why is this shit so funnyyyy?! teach is such a bitch, lololol. still love him, tho. edit #3: THIS IS SERIOUSLY EPIC, HAHAHAHAHA!! this teacher x student dynamic is unique and so, so amusing. i’m struggling not to burst out laughing at 02:28 in the morning, seriously. this is hysterical, i’m not even exaggerating. i’m so glad i decided to read this one tonight, wowza. edit #4: SO. RIDICULOUSLY. GOOD. i’m genuinely astonished. this is so much better than i expected it’d be, truly. and it just keeps getting better and better!!! can’t wait for chapter 94 to be released, i’m about to burst from all this excitement. yeonbi might just be the most annoying little shit i’ve ever seen, but there’s just something so endearing about his arrogance and carefree attitude. well, then there’s the fact that i happen to low-key worship supreme and overpowered characters. (it’s my weakness.) this is what my “martial arts divinity” tag is for, y’all!! i live for the hype. and he’s such a fucking savage, seriously. i can’t help but admire and respect the guy. and that amusing personality of his… i’m legit having laughing fits every damn chapter. he’s so damn unpredictable! yeonbi’s so fucking cool, yo. i’m so excited for the moment when rin and homeboy realizes what their respective identities are. it’s bound to be amazing. i just hope it won’t take too long… i’m not the most patient person, heh. #simp #noregrets edit #5: …should i just reread the whole thing while awaiting new updates??? edit #6: nevermind, just finished reading everything up-to-date on another website. y’all better catch up!!!

teehee, i’m loving the peerless dad vibes. <3 anywho, it’s been great thus far! i’m only 12 chapters in at the moment, but i’m already excited and i’m looking forward to future chapters. i’d call that a decent start. ;) edit: this family is so fucking badass. I. AM. LIVING. FOR. THE. HYPE. i seriously can’t contain myself when shit gets real, lololol. this is so good. i gotta say, i love the moment just before the attack begins. it’s so satisfactory when them enemy asses are beat. i don’t even care how predictable the outcomes are; they fire me up!!! those stories are the best. that’s why solo leveling is my absolute fave, lol. literally nothing beats those epic climaxes. anyway, i just stopped by to say my praise!!! do carry on. edit #2: Y’ALL NON-READERS COULDN’T POSSIBLY UNDERSTAND HOW GOOD THIS SHIT IS TF edit #3: rereading this masterpiece while awaiting updates and now the prologue and first chapter actually make a lot of sense to me, much unlike the first time around. this’ll be fun! edit #4: when you get so hyped up that you end up either squealing “my baby” semi-quietly or shouting “KIIIING!!!” semi-loudly by the end of every chapter like a motherfucking simp, lololol. (sometimes i even slice things up by mashing them together. sometimes i even do both.) no, but seriously. I. LOVE. HIM. precious lil’ bean. rereading this was such a wise decision on my part. i understand everything in so much more detail now, too!!! and i’m paying way more attention to their names while making connections and spotting affiliations that i never did in the past. ahhh, the joy. manhwa is such a wonderful thing! can’t wait to watch everything unfold once again. i’m super stoked.

one chapter in and i can already tell… i’m about to be completely amazed, aren’t i? edit: HE’S SO FUCKING COOL!!! what an amazing character he is. i seriously can’t locate even one flaw… but there must be at least one, right? lololol, this is getting interesting. edit #2: … …did i seriously waste 20-25 minutes writing a full-fledged review of this masterpiece on here only to have it DISAPPEAR ON ME???? un-fucking-believable. either way, i don’t have the energy to rewrite everything. just know that it’s spectacular and i’m seriously impressed by the creators. it’s giving me INSANE solo leveling vibes. although i don’t know exactly why; the plots aren’t at all similar to each other. however, i’m guessing it’s because of the insane buildups and climaxes consisting throughout the whole thing. these authors know how to keep their readers engaged, that’s for sure. it might also be the fact that MC is on a whole other level of superiority than his peers in each respective story, lol. either way, solo leveling is my absolute favorite comic there is, so to say that this one is ‘similar-but-not-at-all-similar’ is seriously high praise. you must check it out if you haven’t already! (it has a 9.9/10 rate on here for a reason, you guys.) but anyway!!! to put it simply, this is fucking epic. EPICEPICEPIC. pure epicness. i’ve read some amazingly written martial arts comics lately, but this one is definitely at the top. (if y’all want some OTHER martial arts story recommendations, i recommend checking out that martial arts tag of mine! it has about 100 comics in it as of right now.) sigh. what a day. believe it or not, but this review is actually shorter and way less detailed than my previous one, lol. i’m feeling less eloquent by the minute, y’all!!! have mercy.

ahhhh, i’m fucking WEAK to these stories, y’all. they never disappoint, do they? hahaha!! edit: i’m roughly 100 chapters in and i’m still obsessed. HE’S. SO. FUCKING. COOL. edit #2: i’m finally completely caught up... yo, this man is such a fucking BEAST!!! i wonder, have i ever read a historical martial arts manhwa with a MC this powerful and prolific in so many different ‘areas’ before? i mean… homeboy’s mastered swordsmanship, archery, stealth, hand-to-hand combat, MULTIPLE martial arts, poison arts, knives, resistance to extreme temperatures, regeneration, imitation… did i miss anything?? like, BROOOO. one can only guess how powerful he’ll be once we reach the end of this story... (ridiculously so, i’d assume.) it’s so good, y’all. i have no idea why i put this off for so long. it’s actually one of the better martial arts stories i’ve read thus far! freakin’ EPIC. #noregrets

legit one of the best fucking ones out there. (within this genre, at least.) although y’all should head over to webtoon, it’s available for free over there and you’d also be supporting the author in the process.

this one looks so good!!! can’t wait to start reading. edit: haha, this is funnier than i expected it to be! i’m thoroughly amused. jinmu’s such a savage, lol. i suppose living for 80+ years will do that to a person. what a boss ass bitch!!! well, anyway. keep it up, jinmu! you’re quite the character—so entertaining. i’m really digging this plot, too! i’m curious about what the final conclusion will be down the line. ^^ edit #2: HE’S SUCH A MANIPULATIVE, GREEDY LITTLE BITCH LMFAOOOO, I FUCKING LOVE HIM!!! edit #3: oh my god, this is AMAZING. i love jinmu!!! call me simp or whatever, i don’t care. daddy edit #4: LMFAOOO!!! just finished reading chapter 57 and i fucking wheezed hard enough to give me a coughing fit. this is excellent writing, truly. comedic genius. this guy… jinmu’s definitely a character, that’s for sure. would i want to meet him? NO. is he a good person? ABSOLUTELY NOT. but do i respect his ingenuity and tenacity? FOR. SURE. he’s so cunning in everything he does, seriously. i admire the shit out of him. this dude is so funny, i can’t even... i just can’t. edit #5: THINGS. JUST. KEEP. GETTING. BETTER. AND. BETTER. this cunning motherfucker gives me purpose. whenever i see there’s a new update, i click on it immediately ’cause i already know i’m about to be cracking up like a cracked up hyena on motherfucking CRACK. this is comedic genius.
