Painter of the Night(Yahwacheop)

Ongoing | Byeonduck | 2019 released

I actually have mixed opinions on this manhwa. The artwork is stunning and I adore Na-kyum with all my heart, but something about Seungho doesn't really sit right with me. Nevertheless, I finished it, but I don't think I'll come back it, and if I do it'll only be because of the beautiful artwork.

Plaything

Ongoing | POTION, TR | 2000 released

I really liked the historical aspect in this story as well as Ilic's character. I definitely didn't expect all that shameless smut, but I'm not complaining. I really liked the art style as well.

Vinland Saga

Ongoing | yukimura makoto | 2005 released

This manga is one of the best ones I've ever read. I started out with the anime, and immediately fell in love with the characters, plot and everything in-between. Thorfinn's character development is so beautiful, yes, beautiful--going from a young boy who's driven by rage and revenge to a man with understanding and compassion for other people. What can I say? I love this manga with all my heart, especially the small amounts of historical accuracy, which makes it all so much more interesting to read.

Return To The Hidden

Complete | ZAODAO | 2000 released

What an odd story. I don't have much to say about this, but I do wish it was longer. I wanted more of the plot and characters, and overall more depth to the entire thing, but it is meant to be a short story and nothing more.

Kimetsu no Yaiba

Complete | Gotouge Koyoharu | 2016 released

This is such an impactful story. The focus on love, friendship and companionship was amazing. The plot was interesting all the way to the end, and I don't remember reading a story this quickly. I loved the mystical aspect to Sun Breathing and the origins of the Demon Slayer Corps. With that being said, it also broke my heart, but I won't be going into detail about that.

Living Will

Complete | mina (미나),ziho | 2019 released

This is a short read, and overall very likeable. The relationship between Jeanette and Jeanne is super cute, but the ending made me feel so empty. I do, however, wish that the story was longer so the readers could get to know the characters even more, and just get more details about the plot and Jeanette profession in general + the more of Jeanette's and Jeanne's relationship.

Vagabond

Ongoing | Inoue Takehiko | 1998 released

This is an attention-grabbing story with interesting plots and characters. The art style is, perhaps, one of the most beautiful ones I've seen. I'm very excited to see where the story is headed, and how each respective character grows.
