Haikyuu!!

Complete | furudate haruichi | 2011 released

P: Hinata is full of enthusiasm for volleyball, and he's determined to become the ace of the volleyball team as he enters high school! Unfortunately, due to having too few players and no real teachers, his middle school volleyball team just kind of casually played around. He has no real experience or skill with the game and only has the ability to jump really high and spike the ball. The real first-year ace, the super-serious, highly-skilled, irritable Kageyama, has no patience for clueless Hinata's ambition. Will Hinata be able to find a useful place on his new team? O: I started reading this years ago, but only started reading it on here recently. This is EPIC. What is with that sudden timeskip :'( Why is Hinata suddenly in Brazil?? I wanted to see him be a third year ;-; OMG can't believe Hinata met Oikawa there!!! So hyped!!! This is absolutely amazing. OMG will there be Kageyama and Ushijima vs Oikawa and Hinata!?!?! Awww so awesome how Hinata earned the title "Ninja Shouyou" :'), and that he now acts as a decoy for himself. OMG every chapter hypes me up!!! (≧∀≦)

DICE: the cube that changes everything

Ongoing | Yunhyunseok | 2000 released

P: About a world with dice. You can get dice from doing missions, and use them to increase your stats. It sounds all fun and games, but is actually quite dark and serious. O: I don't particularly like anyone, and I feel like this has been dragged out for too long, but it's a very entertaining read. It's the kind of book that you just eat popcorn and watch the drama unfold in front of you. The ending was eh.... glad to see it finished tho.

Solo Leveling

Complete | Jang Sung-Lak,Gee So-Lyung | 2000 released

P: 10 years ago, after “the Gate” that connected the real world with the monster world opened, some of the ordinary, everyday people received the power to hunt monsters within the Gate. They are known as "Hunters". However, not all Hunters are powerful. My name is Sung Jin-Woo, an E-rank Hunter. I'm someone who has to risk his life in the lowliest of dungeons, the "World's Weakest". Having no skills whatsoever to display, I barely earned the required money by fighting in low-leveled dungeons… at least until I found a hidden dungeon with the hardest difficulty within the D-rank dungeons! In the end, as I was accepting death, I suddenly received a strange power, a quest log that only I could see, a secret to leveling up that only I know about! If I trained in accordance with my quests and hunted monsters, my level would rise. Changing from the weakest Hunter to the strongest S-rank Hunter! O: This is epic. Such nice art. The MC gets crazy OP, but this manhwa is very grabbing. It's so exciting to see Jin-woo get stronger and stronger. I like seeing the shadows! SO HYPE!! C139 TT Jinwoo is too sweet. Everyone is simping for Jinwoo - me included xD C151 - nooooooooo wtf.. Can't believe this is finally over, such a good read.

Tower of God

Ongoing | SIU (Story &, Art) | 2010 released

P: The top of the tower has whatever anyone desires. Bam's desire is to meet with Rachel in the tower, but Rachel's goal is to see the night sky with stars. O: I don't really like Rachel, I feel like she'll manipulate Bam a lot. I love Bam, Rak and Khun's dynamic, they're such a fun trio ^^ Fav character has to be Khun, he's so arrogant, cool and caring. Ultimate friend! :D (Khun x Bam ftw) Wow I can't believe how easily team B betray each other in that test ~C50. This is pretty good. Nice plot. The art is gradually getting better and better. Parts I liked: C52 - contemplate life, must risk it all, EP75 - WHAT?! Bam finally thinks he caught the light, but was pushed into the darkness by Rachel. EP101 - Wangnan forgave Lurker, instead of killing him breaking the cycle of revenge. EP111 - Mazino x Viole LOL “I’ll play with you, little boy.” - Mazino, while shirtless. GAH why is he so hot?? EP229 - OMG wow… 2nd time eh… Read on Webtoons.

SPY x FAMILY

Ongoing | Endou Tatsuya | 2000 released

P: The master spy codenamed has spent his days on undercover missions, all for the dream of a better world. But one day, he receives a particularly difficult new order from command. For his mission, he must form a temporary family and start a new life?! A Spy/Action/Comedy about a one-of-a-kind family! O: This is so funny and cute. That dog and Anya are such sweeties ;-;

Ao no Flag

Complete | Kaito | 2000 released

P: The "youth pure love" story begins when three students in their third and final year of high school meet during a time when they are worried about paths for their futures. Waiting for them are sweet, painful, and heartrending days. O: Ahh I only read up to chapter 5 and WOW a lot of stuff is going on. I feel like it's implied that Touma (bff) secretly likes Taichi, and Masumi likes Futaba because she said they're alike and that the only matching ideal characteristic is black hair. So unexpected... Ah fuck. This hurts. It really does. I can't help but wish Taichi x Futaba and Touma x Taichi, even though it'll obviously end up with the former ship. I honestly prefer the latter. It hurts so much to see Touma subtly show his feelings. I kinda get why Taichi doesn't see Touma at all as a love interest as he has always considered Touma as a friend. I love how each character is developed. I didn't particularly like Yagihara at the start, but after reading C.32, I understand her perspective more. This is a nice, thought-provoking piece of work. She addresses bias against women. Holy shit C.41 has so many feels.... That confession and apology... ;-; Touma.... That talk between Touma and Seiya ;-; Every chapter makes me want to cry. I'm so glad that Touma and Taichi end up together in the end! However it would've been nice to see the story of Taichi breaking up with Futaba and then dating Touma.. It seemed a bit rushed, but that was a daring ending considering this is shounen. It was interesting how C54 was from Touma's perspective, but damn I really wanted to see Touma :( It was a nice touch to see Touma use the surname "Ichinose" meaning they're married :')

Jibaku Shounen Hanako-kun

Ongoing | aida iro | 2014 released

P: At Kamome Academy, rumors abound about the school's Seven Mysteries, one of which is Hanako-san. Said to occupy the third stall of the third floor girls' bathroom in the old school building, Hanako-san grants any wish when summoned. Nene Yashiro, an occult-loving high school girl who dreams of romance, ventures into this haunted bathroom... but the Hanako-san she meets there is nothing like she imagined! Kamome Academy's Hanako-san... is a boy! O: Tbh idk whether to rate this 4 or 5 star, because I really enjoy reading this, but there are quite a few aspects I don't like. The art is really nice and the plot is pretty interesting! Ngl this can get really confusing though since the plot can get a bit all over the place with rough transitions between the different arcs. Tbh the art makes characters seem like elementary schoolers rather than high school students, but it's a very cute art style nonetheless. What bothers me is that Yashiro always conveniently ends up getting help from someone at the most perfect moments - I wish we had more chances to see Yashiro stand up for herself instead of always relying on others. C13 - OMG Tsuchigomori knew about Hanako when he was human?!? Amane Yugi... I really wonder about Hanako's history.. C15 - omfg Kou (Minamoto) is so caring... TT C17 - bruh I was so confused since Hanako's lil bro looked exactly like him. He is pretty unsettling... C26 - I'm guessing Yashiro doesn't age in terms of appearance..? ahh I see... it gets explained next chapter :( C35 - Don't really like Mitsuba tbh mainly b/c of his weird personality C38 - OH SHIT!! C64 - is that really Aoi!?! C69 - oh my Akane is hot?! C71 - OML WTF IS GOING ON?!?! Aoi and the supernatural's aren't coming back??? No shot.. C80 - It sucks how Yashiro always has someone to save her in the most crucial of moments - it'd be cool to see Yashiro fight back for herself.. YOOO Yashiro's fish form was actually helpful for once!! C82 - OMFG Tsukasa is crazy wtf TT C86 - OMG THIS CHAPTER >< C88 - OMFG THAT DUDE DID NOT JUST TAKE THOSE 3 DOWN??? C90 - AHHHH KOU'S COMEBACK!!! I'm so proud of him C94 - oml what is happening!!!
