The World of Otome Games is Tough for Mobs

I love the male lead cruising through life as an otome mob character, and building a harem as a result. This idea is pretty cool, and I enjoyed watching him screw up the original otome plot. It seems like the story is starting to slow down in recent chapters though, so perhaps the author has run out of ideas... Hopefully it picks up again soon.

Beware of the Villainess!

This webtoon shatters the path most villainess isekai usually go on. The female lead returns as someone who won't be good, but also won't be evil, and she has the weirdest facial expressions sometimes. She becomes friends with the original heroine and it's nice to see them get along. I'm not a fan of the supporting cast though, including her maid and her werewolf butler, they're not interesting at all. Basically, the heroine is the star of the show, and everyone else is some lame 2D character with no substance. Especially Nine, who the heroine keeps randomly gushing over every chapter to make the audience fangirl over him as well. He has no personality, and almost no inner drive besides "I must serve Master", and he's too passive to do anything noteworthy. The art style changes sometimes for comedic effect, which is great, but overall, the art is so-so. I don't find any of the characters beautiful or attractive, even if other characters praise their appearance. It just fails to convince me.

4-koma comedy manga at its best! Never fails to make me laugh. The main characters take one step forward in their romance, and then three steps back. It's so ridiculous!

Emperor And The Female Knight

It was great at the beginning, I liked Pauliana as the badass female lead. But later on, it skips a lot of the war to jump straight to romance, which sucks. There's not much focus on Pauliana herself, and more on the emperor's infatuation with her, which I find to be too rushed to be realistic. Pauliana is oblivious and stupid outside of fighting. I feel very let down by this webtoon. Art is ok, but Pauliana is not pretty at all. The emperor's forehead is way too wide, and I can't stop staring at it. It was even more obvious in the April Fool's chapter where he was bald, and I cannot unsee it. I'm pretty disappointed in this webtoon, it had a lot of potential to be great.

The beginning of this manga was really good, and the female lead was both likeable and relatable. As the series went on, she just became kind of stupid and intolerable. It went seriously downhill after the arc where she had to be Ren's fake sister who had a bro-con complex with him. That was so dumb and not salvageable at that point. At least Ren finally admitted his feelings for her. Honestly, I like her interaction with Shou more than with Ren. It's more natural and organic, while with Ren it's uncomfortable and forced. I enjoyed the sections where she prepared for acting jobs but the author has stopped showing those bits of her life, what a letdown...

The Villainess Reverses the Hourglass

Ongoing | 산소비 | 2019 released

The art is really good for this webtoon! I love how the villainess female lead is actually a villainess and goes out of her way to make people pay, unlike other villainess isekai where the villainess attempts to right their wrongdoings and become the heroine. She's very intelligent and doesn't really rely on other people to help her, it's quite refreshing to read.

Virtues of the Villainess

Art is quite nice, the female lead is very distinctive. I enjoyed the first couple of chapters but she caught the interest of the male lead too quickly in my opinion, and the story is getting boring already unfortunately. There's no real conflict yet and I feel this interesting female lead's potential was wasted.

Noragami

One of the best manga I've read, the anime is also great. It's going dark very steadily, as I've always suspected it will. Honestly, I think this manga will have a tragic ending. Hiyori is slowly taking a backseat in the story, and it's focusing more on Yato & Yukine & Father. I hope Hiyori will be able to take the spotlight again soon, since her interaction with the other main characters is what makes this story work so well in the past.

The Strongest Florist

Ongoing | Kumtata,Juhyeon hu | 2019 released

The humor is great, I love how a florist in a MMORPG can be the most OP class in the game. Art is so-so, the main character is a little ugly (since that's how he's intended to be), but all the other characters also are not beautifully drawn either, otherwise I would give this a higher rating. Worth reading!

Feng Qi Cang Lan

Ongoing | song shu 200 | 2013 released

The female protagonist is so BOSS and can pwn everyone she comes across haha. I liked how the author made her fall back down and struggle again, but she easily overcomes her obstacles. There isn't really much character development, but I love its humor and watching the female lead's ridiculous antics.
