Zihvuda's manga / #Fantasy(64)

This is really good. It starts with the typical love triangle angle, that pits the two women against each other. One woman is angelic, the other a villain archetype. The two ladies get freaky firday'd (it's a movie look it up) and switch places. Turns out the asshole is of course, the two timing prince who's a sociopath manipulating everyone in an effort to become a god. And thus it's revenge time for our female leads (the join forces to basically get revenge on the prince. The attempt is ongoing). There's a lot of intrigue and political manipulation in this story and it really is so much fun reading to see what happens next! Medea is such a bad ass, and I do love Psyche as well. Helio seems to be stuck in second ML status, though I truly hope that's not his ending. He deserves better. The art is gorgeous and doesn't cut corners too much. The men may be too pretty for some people, but it works with the art style for me, so I don't mind. However it's abundantly clear you ain't gonna be finding any Bears or even DILFS in this webtoon. Just saying. Now, the translation. The teams change. A lot. half of chapter 103 is missing and the quality goes from passable to alright to passable again. Later when you start getting to chapter 100 or somewhere there, the translation takes a nose dive even further to bad, and it gets hard to keep up with the story which is a BIG shame. It sucks. The story makes you power through it, but it doesn't change the fact the english is pretty shit. Again, any native english speaker as a proof reader would clear that up easy, but whatever. This results with names changing a lot and for some reason, especially the last names. You will be so confused sometimes, wondering if they're introducing a new character or who the fuck is being referred to. The prince goes from bein Yaros, Yeoros, to Eros and god knows what other variations I don't remember. Psyche was, Psyche Polly, and then it changes to something completely different. Medea was part of the Belial family which the official translations changed to Solon. It's so confusing. I recommend the story, the story is amazing, I don't recommend most of the translation teams though. They are quite bad with the english, so it's safe to say the translation itself is probably pretty dog shit. You'll get stuck into this story! You'll get obsessed, and you'll have to work hard to figure out what's going on thanks to these awful translations. TT-TT At least they aren't word salad levels.... yet, or I would have said to skip and not to bother. But I do recommend trying to find better translations elsewhere.

This isn't offensive exactly, but it's kind of bland and needed more resolution then what was presented. The plot feels very half hearted with how it progresses, and the conflict isn't ever properly addressed through any sort of conversation. I thought there'd be smut, but there wasn't. All sex scenes were awkwardly cut away from, and the kisses were exceedingly tame. A murderer for hire gets abducted by a naive and demi-god who then kind of keeps him as a pet until the murderer manages to escape. For some reason, the demi-god falls in love with the murderer and decides to live on earth with him. Motives are horrendously underdeveloped, which is a shame, because the characters and setting are interesting to play around with, but the author manages to make it pretty boring. The art is good, but not enough to recommend a reading of this.

The art is average, and it's very shounen but also isekai. I like the story, but I'm giving it a low rating because of the creepiness that is the author choosing to focus on a bunch of high schoolers mooning over Mc who is a full adult (even if he's in the body of a teen). It's weird. MC is a writer, but discontinued his story cause he hit writer's block. He then get's swept away into his own novel? Webtoon? one day as an extra and basically has to live in the novel and try to find his way back home. The game system within the novel gives him pretty op abilities, but also kind of forces him to involve himself as much as possible with the main characters and plot of his original story. As I said, the setting and characters are pretty enjoyable despite some faults. Like for example the pro heroes being portrayed as rather useless and bad at their jobs for the most part except for like... 1 exception. Also one of the girls more than others (though all of them are interested one way or another in mc, it's a very weird not harem that still feels like a harem) keeps misunderstanding things and develops a crush as she believes that mc could have feelings for her. I don't like that, it's uncomfortable especially cause it's focused on so much. Other members of the main cast, like the dude that's supposed to turn villain later just disappears from the story for aaaages, and barely shown to be the threat we are told he is. Also MC gets his own lolita girl to play daddy to, which isn't bad in itself, but he basically killed and now is raising her to use her, so she's basically his slave, and I don't like it much. The readers haven't been given a reason as to why he'd need her, but yeah... there she is. Anyway, I do recommend the story for the general plot and serviceable to good translation, but it's got some elements that are annoying/squick inducing. Fanservice isn't a thing in this, so if that's what you're looking for, this isn't the place to find it.

Apparently, according to this webtoon, grad students in korea get turned into slaves by their professors and aren't allowed food or rest. >_> Yeah... ok. This is the story of a poor grad student who just managed to graduate and immediate gets run over and reincarnates into a fantasy world. He grows up and attends a magic academy. He's OP, but not in a fun way. He's just naturally really talented, mature cause he already had the mentality of an adult and good at everything because of him being used to things thanks to being a grad student. Except that's bullshit. He's spent at least 16 years growing up in this world and not doing grad student things. He may have recollections, but because he wasn't actively practicing those things his skills and instincts will have deteriorated during those 16 years. Or however old he's supposed to be when he enters the academy. We're never told what he's a graduate student of, so that further muddies the waters. He barely struggles before getting the hang of things and it gets less and less fun to follow. He's also pretty bland. Merely "nice" and driven to get himself a career. But there's barely much else to him. The rest of the character's aren't that much better either. At the beginning he's supposed to struggle more than the average student because of a certain attribute he has, but it literally causes no issues for him. He's still the top of the class and learning things faster and better than others. I usually like OP protags, but because this is basically slice of life it makes it much less compelling and after a while it gets boring. The art is alright, though there is a bit too much reliance on exposition narration rather than showing things with art. The translation is alright, but as said the art could be used show more rather than leaning so much on exposition. It's middle of the road, and therefore in the end, quite boring.

I dunno if it's the translation, the writer or both, but this story has problems. The art is pretty good, and lends itself well to the action, but my goodness it get frustrating to read this. There's some mistakes in the translation which are really goddamn obvious from the context of the rest of the dialogue and art alone. And the setting is really badly explained. I appreciate trying to keep the exposition dumps to a minimum, but the solution shouldn't be omitting the information entirely. So the story is, dude plays and streams a retro game that no-one has apparently been able to beat in 10 years. He manages to beat it and is subsequently kidnapped into the game world to once again clear it, but better. SO, our MC has played the shit out of this game and knows a lot about it. And yet sometimes it feels like he knows too much because the story doesn't bother to establish that he's a huge fucking nerd for this game and has extensively and exhaustively researched every aspect and thing, enough to know even the most obscure and weird little design and lore details. Because this isn't properly established or shown, it looks like he's pulling strategies and knowledge about characters and equipment straight out of his ass. Also, despite it being one of the first things I'd go over my mind, he doesn't go over how he beat the tutorial or the stages after that, but seems to approach it all like it's his first time, despite knowing basically everything about all the characters and weapons. It's weird and constantly takes you out of the story 'cause you're confused and wondering what the fuck is going on. There's even confusion as to whether the world MC is in is actually game-like or not. Because no-one else has stat windows or things, except MC, and look, it's just weird on confusing and to me at least feels like the author hasn't decided on which it is and is attempting to write it as both until they've decided. Also I was under the impression that the game had a plot, so there was a story the MC was following, but I guess not? Cause the original plot isn't really referenced at all except for the ending we got to see when MC beat the game before. Like MC hates the tutorial stage cause it's hard as balls, but to the point where you get the feeling it was either a "meant to lose" scenario or he just... somehow never beat it? Cause he never thinks back to how he did it, just thinks about how all the characters he talks to died in his original run and how the tutorial is impossible to beat. But then if he never got passed the tutorial how'd he beat the game???? What?? Was it one of those opt out tutorials you didn't need to complete to start the game? What? I mean I guess he was more desperate cause he wanted to survive, but still. It's weird and confusing and I'm not here for it.

Can't really get into it. The translation makes it super hard to understand what's going on. I'm not sure who MC is, but I think the demon sparrow vampire dude is, and he then gets... enslaved?? by white haired dude (I assume he's ML). Something about drinking white haired dude's blood, has the demon bound to him, I think by his literal heart according to the art. The story has a kind of slow start I think, especially with giving the audience answers to their questions. This would be fine if the translation allowed you to sink into the story and art, but unfortunately, that's not the case at all. The dialogue is overly flowery with terrible sentence structure. It's really not worth it, so I dropped it pretty quick.

A young Korean man who's dedicated his whole life to his job as a doctor goes to a war torn country as part of a doctors-without-boarders program. The war gets to their ramshackle clinic, and our MC gets gunned down. He wakes up in the body of a young child in um... murim Korea times. He's among a bunch of dead and injured people, and goes right back to doctoring despite being in the body of a small child. From there he meets people, figures out he's in the novel he was reading, meets a medicine master and learns the ways of this strange world he's now in. Really liked the beginning where martial arts magic was partially explained with modern medicine. Was really interesting and I liked that aspect a lot. As MC learns more martial arts however, that aspect kind of stops, as martial arts magic starts to take over and is no longer viewed through the lens of someone steeped in modern era science. There's occasional bits, but it's rare. It's a bit sad. Also, the passage of time is at first is kept track of very well, but in the later chapters I completely lost track of how old MC's body is now supposed to be and how long it's been since he reincarnated. I thought it had only been 2 years but at some point there was dialogue talking about him learning martial arts for "several years". This seems to happen a lot in this kind of webtoon, and for the life of me I can't figure out why. It always breaks immersion for me when they do that. =/ Translation ranges from Asura-scans, which is mostly good, to something that continually confuses pronouns for characters previously established to have other pronouns. Also bad grammar, but mostly understandable, so it doesn't ruin the reading experience. I really like MC, he's shown to more clearly struggle with learning and getting stronger, especially when he fights foes. Dude is always panting lol. There is some potential with side characters that feels mostly wasted as they aren't used. Like why didn't Mr. Archer who swore loyalty to MC go travel with him as a body guard? Dude is super strong and then the medicine master wouldn't have to worry as much? But no, friend can't go with him, but the fucking dog (that doesn't belong to him, why is he with MC still??) and the birds are fine. <_<;; I thought they were gonna do something with archer dude, so it's a shame the author wasted him like that. We don't even see him much anymore, what was the point of keeping him in the story? And that's kind of the problem, MC has his quests and goals, which were compelling enough to keep me engaged, but after thinking about it, MC is the only character I care about. Everyone else is kind of one note and just there (except for the master and possibly the fox guy). No-one else has any character, and you don't really end up caring about any of them because you don't get to know anyone. MC has people he cares about and who care about him but it all feels very superficial somehow. Anyway I do recommend giving this a read and seeing what you think for yourself, it's good fun if nothing else! =)

This story is not meant to be taken seriously, but wants to incorporate extremely traumatic and serious elements and do nothing with them. I don't even know when the last time was that I disliked a story so much. I'm fine with unlikable villains, but this is... horrendous. A woman and her summoned spirit king form a contract, fall in love, and then have a kid. The woman "makes" a child without telling the father-to-be anything, and she makes this child knowing she will give birth and instantly die and never have a chance to raise the child. The father doesn't know shit right up till the end. She drives him off with a misunderstanding and when she dies, he senses it and comes by and finds the baby, which he promptly abandons in another world. The woman left a letter explaining some things, but not anything about why she was such a selfish bitch to bring a life into the world without the consent of her lover and with certain knowledge she wouldn't be around to bear the responsibility of raising the child. Absolutely hate it! Irresponsible, selfish, horrible woman. Next we have the would be father who doesn't notice this letter the woman left for him. The letter goes unnoticed for 17 goddamn years, during which the now abandoned child grows up in another world, in a loving adoptive family, perfectly content with their life. In the letter, woman says she leaves the raising of the child to man who didn't even have the chance to consent to being a father. I will not let this consent thing go. Elemental spirits in this story don't have genitals. They don't procreate through sex and generally are unable to have children. There's no chance for accidents of this kind, happy or otherwise! The selfish horrible woman asked for the elemental spirit King's aura and didn't tell him what she was going to use it for, or even ask if he'd want the child. She just did that shit and left it as his problem. I *hate* it. Anyway, so the child's all happy in this other world, would be father finally reads the goddamn letter after 17 fucking years and suddenly decides to drag the child back, without any preamble. Because in the letter the woman says she leaves the raising of the child to him. FUCKING BULLSHIT!!! He then proceeds to reveal to said child that he is the one that abandoned her, and she can't go back to her loving family (and HAPPY life) because now that he's dragged her ass back they don't remember she ever existed and all records of her have disappeared. This poor kid got told she was straight up unwanted *and* lost her family in the space of second and the author thought this should be something to put in her dumbass comedy webtoon where they play this whole thing off as a joke. I can't! I am SO angry!! The kid barely cares. She doesn't like this kidnapper of hers and wants to get away, but it's with the intensity and urgency of getting out of a light spring rain. This all should be extremely shocking and traumatizing and she basically doesn't even cry. Oh sorry, she does cry for a second when she thinks she's dead, but as soon as she figures out she isn't, it's fine. She's trapped with this asshole who insists she needs to be in his life, and I'm over here like this is wrong! This shouldn't be a comedy! This is a fucking horror story! A psychological horror! HATE IT! If the child actually said shit back to the spirit king and properly hated him or actually properly angry with him I wouldn't hate it so much, but no, a teenager who gets their nintendo switch temporarily confiscated would be angrier than this kid. They barely care and are just all happy go lucky, when there is NO earthly justification for them to be in this situation. Hate it! My fucking god! If authors want to include heavy serious backstories or events, fucking treat them as such, don't put this shit in a light comedy and then treat it as nothing! If you don't want angst in your fucking comedy story, don't fucking include trauma, tragedy and domestic abuse in this way you dumb fucks! The tone doesn't match even a little and it's just shit. It's way too fucking out of place and it isn't funny. The art is pretty good, and the translation seems good. But I do not recommend this story even a little bit. It's terribly thought out. It could improve, I wouldn't know since I couldn't get passed chapter 7, but I highly doubt it. Just no. Skip this shit and read something else!

Yeah, a child is abused, finds out the family she's in is not her blood related family, she goes to find her father. Her mom's dead. For some reason her father couldn't raise her, or be there for her at all until she went to find him. Story is fluffy and cute and I like the art, but the translation is trash and a chore to read. Dropped.

This is the story of some kid with a mysterious past and a secret identity. He's an over powered mage and does missions for an organization he's part of, and our story starts with him doing really mundane small missions because his master is trying to hide him from... some people. Said master conspires to send this overly talented and fully fledged mage to magic school without MC's consent on the pretext of "make friends with this bullied kid" mission. I get that I'm not supposed to think about it, but I'm betting our MC would actually be bored to tears in class and be hated by most of the professors. However this is one of those stories that's set in a school, but we never see any actual lessons happen. Unless it's gone wrong and an action scene is to take place. I've read quite a few chapters and have absolutely no earthly idea as to what the various "professors" we've been introduced to teach, or how they teach. Also one (1) faculty member is slightly concerned for bullied kid, but they barely do anything except talk to the kid, and the other teachers are shown to give less than two shits despite being aware of the bullying. Idiotic. The kid's from a ducal family, but no, the professors are pretty useless, gotta send some other kid undercover to solve this shit. The story is pretty compelling (somehow), but the art is... well it gets marginally better, but not the way people in other comments are going on about it. The plot and characterizations also reek of "baby writer's first story". Especially the characterization. The way we're introduced to characters by the trope's the confirm to. The start didn't leave a particular good impression as it was using these tropes without knowing why or how to use them. There's the cool woman who's expressionless and for some reason a teacher at the school, but who's got absolutely no business being around kids. She's supposed to be a little like early Kakashi from naruto, or Aizawa of MHA, someone who's too cool to care, but actually does, and at the end of the day, does a really good job caring for the kids. She's got the too cool to care bit down, but seems to care nothing for anyone else except the princess character. There's the beautiful cool smart girl, her distinction is that she doesn't wear glasses despite being the smart girl character. That's the standard of characterization and while I do otherwise like the story, these aspects detract from my enjoyment somewhat. Especially at the beginning. I'm going to drop this as I've come to my limit I guess, but judging by how highly rated this is, there's quite a few people who do like it. Thus, I'd recommend giving this story a try and seeing how you feel about it for yourself. It's trope-y as fuck, but it can also be fun and heartfelt. The comedy's mostly a miss for me, but it might not be so for you. The art... well it may be the actual deal breaker for most people. ^^;; Also this apparently got dropped by the author and I can see why, so this doesn't have an ending.
