The Tax Reaper

Ongoing | elgar , wintersleepturtle | 2019 released

whoever’s visualizing this… is an actual fucking genius, seriously. not only is the art incredibly well-made and expressive (and i mean TOP. NOTCH. QUALITY), but the creative illustrations themselves make everything appear so cohesive and easily understandable—especially for people like me who don’t have much experience in these ‘taxing’ matters! and it’s super intense, too. [seriously. fucking. intense.] i never knew embezzlement, tax-collecting & capitalistic vigilantism would be this engaging and exciting, lol. the relatively unusual plot combined with this great writing and the gorgeous art-style… they all have turned this manhwa into a definite 10/10, for sure. genuine props to all those responsible for this outstanding work of art!!! oh, and i absolutely love our MC, too. not only is he, like, ONE OF THE MOST ATTRACTIVE MALE LEADS I’VE EVER FUCKING SEEN, but he’s also humble and righteous and kind and brave and intelligent and omfgggg, he’s so fucking hot it’s unreal. goddamn… why was i sleeping on this one for so long again??? questionable judgment once again, sheesh. anyway, i’m glad i finally got to reading it. there definitely should be higher ratings, though, given the overall quality of the story itself… a bit strange, hmm. i mean, i do get that most people wouldn’t find capitalism all that ‘thrilling’ to read about, but the story’s much more than that. it’s about power-play and justice; (corporate) politics, influential connections, manipulation, corruption, cleverness, lies & deceit… and people CONSTANTLY trying to outsmart each other. it’s the core of capitalism!!! ahhh, and then there’s jaehyeon. <33 a genuinely wonderful person with integrity and good intentions who just wants the world to be a fair and just place for everyone in it. he’s admirable as hell, man… i could NEVER have guts like his. or such epic resolve. or that unyielding kind of righteousness, to be real with you… the guy seems completely fearless; nothing deters him from pursuing his goal of making the world a better place. (at least nothing has yet, heh. you never know what the future holds!) truly excited to see where this goes, though!!! i can’t wait.

Solo Max-Level Newbie

Ongoing | | 2019 released

the personality of this dude, y’all… LMFAOOOO. he’s such a savage little scammer, it’s so fucking funny. <33 other than that, i’m enjoying all these power-trips!!! great buildups and nice art; it kinda feels like a combo of “tomb raider king,” “ranker’s return” and “solo leveling,” lol. i’m not complaining! it’s overall a great read, and super entertaining at that. the title isn’t really all that befitting, though… ‘newbie’??? as if, lol. i don’t get that particular word choice. but hey, despite that small detail, i’m enjoying myself nonetheless!!!

The Bully In-Charge

Ongoing | grimzo | 2019 released

holy FUCK, this dude’s next level ATTRACTIVEEEE, man. seriously, who created him?? goddammit, the fighting scenes are actual fucking fire, too. who doesn’t love an overpowered vigilante-type bully who’s out for blood? i know i sure do. <33 i even went as far as to purchase the chapters on webtoon instead of waiting for the blessed daily passes ‘cause it was that addictive. so worth the dopamine rush! that was 129 sek well spent. ;)

Second Life on the Red Carpet

Ongoing | 폳도 | 2019 released

THIS. IS. AMAZING!!! so, so well-written. the art is gorgeous, the characters are unique and memorable, the dynamics are great and the actual plot itself feels… surprisingly original for an isekai of this genre. seriously, i’m so impressed and immersed at this point! i’ve completely fallen in love with these people!!! and, unexpectedly enough, ALL of the central characters are extremely likable, too. ahhh, that was season one. <33 i legit cannot WAIT for the release of the next one!!! it’s going to be so fucking good, i already know it. i’m low-key beside myself right now, haha. it’ll be great! edit: this one should also have the ‘martial arts divinity’ tag, but there’s not enough space for it. ;_;
