Hero Killer

Ongoing | Kkulbeol , Beolkkul | 2000 released

The story centers around Ihwa, who is seeking revenge against the 'heroes' for the injustice she experienced by the organisation of heroes...her sister was killed by them for a mysterious reason(it seems to be a big plotline), and the stranger thing is her sister (elder) was a hero or worked with them..it is a world where the heroes are corrupted and misuse their power and authority and the hero killer aka our protagonist is the one who is keeping them in place (in her own words). If there ever was a situation where a hero had to choose between one civilian against a much larger group, then the latter had to be chosen but as time went out, the heroes gained more power and just unnecessarily kill the hostages or the civilians while being on a mission meanwhile destroying properties (buildings and the likes)without facing repercussions. Ihwa is being trained by a mysterious old man in a wheelchair who later turns out to be one of 'The Elders'..the top people of the hero organisation who have existed since long ago..also quick note people who have abilities are called 'gifted' with their abilities being referred to as 'gifts' and they can live for a very long time but most of them die out before being able to die from natural causes.. Gifts vary from fire abilities, shapeshifting abilities to power stealing (?) abilities which our mc has(yes very op).. apparently ESP is used for the gifts..gifts can use high ESP or minimal ESP..When your ESP runs out..u r fucked as you know your gift is at the limit and u r in danger especially during a fight..the guy in the cover is Engen(?)aka smiling man..a villain with three other members forming the 'Nameless' organisation..later joined by mc..The girl is really similar in character design and personality wise to that crazy girl from bnha but slightly kinder and wholesome..there is a crazy doctor yet seems to be the most sane out of the bunch, he uses some kind of space magic..it might seem op but he seems weak atleast right now..the other guy rarely talks but is my fav out of them other than mc..Engen seems very transparent to me which is a first for me as his type is the one I think I know the least about cuz they are just that good at hiding things n a good author as well..the gap in level between Engen and Ihwa is a lot..the power scale in this manhwa seems pretty established already..with the 'silver witch' at the very top (she has silver hair too so she has to have some kind of connection with mc) then the light girl who gave Engen that scar in the war between villains and heroes...the heroes won and her line to Engen was if I recall correctly 'you are so sad or you have no expression so let me put a smile to your face' hence the scar on his face..but what's even stranger is I thought she would be the endgame for Engen or that he would hold some kind of grudge towards her but she seems to be an afterthought with the 'silver witch' being their common nemesis..she even called her a bitch and said she died to Engen's remark that she is still alive, just hiding and as long as she exists she would never be the strongest... THAT'S ALL FROM ME..WHEW SAYONARA!!

Preference for the Possessor

Ongoing | Lee rin-b | 2019 released

I just adore it so much...I am not a fan of the cliche of you know trapped in a child's body or in this case transmigrated then later behaves like a child...this mc is focused, knows what is needed and doesn't slack off while appreciating what is given to her...YES GURL:)

Say Ah, the Golden Spoon is Entering

Ongoing | 포르토피노,신유성 | 2019 released

My favourite mc n female character by a longshot...she doesn't have many rivals both in my heart as well as in the webtoon world..I just want to say 'you are the star in the universe miss adelaide'..moreover, Killian is unexpectedly a good ml..a surprise..I thought he would be the cardboard perfect ml u see when there is a good mc..mc is so logical and able to stop herself from being emotional in her decisions, something I cannot say for most mc's..her only rival off the top of my head is the mc from 'matriarch of the family'.... WOW Update (27/12/22) : I guess you have to read it in succession to get into the flow and can't just pick up where you left off. The translation issue is becoming more prominent and seems to get in the way of my enjoyment of the story, which is a shame because I genuinely like it. The ml is the crown prince as it turns out, he left his riches and status behind it seems and his younger brother is searching for him with the help of the daughter of a duke in the capital. She is an adopted child and also has a name that seems to be of Korean lineage so maybe a reincarnation..possibly? She seems clever to be able to make her family rise in just three years time since her appearance so kudos to her. Also I think she doesn't want the crown prince to reclaim his position and is subtly telling the younger bro to take the position. Maybe she isn't giving him the full info. Maybe aiming to be the Empress or Queen?

Cherry Blossoms After Winter

Complete | Bamwoo | 2000 released

Wow..this holds such a special place in my heart since it was my first ever bl. Man the way I gushed, screamed, blushed, hid behind my pillow, punched my sis, the secondhand embarassment and life-changing moments I had with this YAOI or shounen ai was astronomical. My homophobic ass could not handle all the sexy postures the uke was doing. I was like open mouthed :0 at the scene when the ml pressed his dick and mc dick together and jerked them both off..the shower scene?? A classic then the common room scene..I was like LOCK THE DOOR!! They r childhood friends tho I didn't really focus on the plot but I got hella secondhand embarassment from mc when he expected to have sex with ml after he declined the offer and prepared himself..I skipped it!! The story wasn't important..their gazes of longing, the saliva, the sex, the steam and the sex position and situation and their faces during sex was the highlight*ahem* the climax of the story..so sorry for that ( I'm not)..I read it in tapas and it was free only to a certain chapter so I skipped ahead and ch 70+ chapters were unlocked so I saw it and that changed my life completely and I have never looked back since...

Surviving as an Illegitimate Princess

Ongoing | Seo gyeol,서결 | 2019 released

Only 3 chapters in..and I have to say it's a pleasant story..the dad is a holy knight(?) But it's a secret cuz he will get his hands and eyes cut out cuz it's taboo to lose his chastity..the mc only found this out in her later life..she has been reincarnated I think 12 times or was it 9? I'm not sure..she seems to have magic powers but didn't have the chance to train or utilise it properly cuz of her dying too early..so technically she never had the chance to grow up in all her lives...so I'll let it go this once ..she can act like a child..it's cool by me..my principles were always loose when there is a bit of logic sprinkled in there.. sooo in the third chapter she jumps into the a lake, a pond(?)but it's inside the holy temple..it's a kind of test I feel cuz she said something along the lines of let it work this time...so yeah that's it for my review

The Villainess Reverses the Hourglass

Ongoing | 산소비 | 2019 released

The title 'villainess' is totally earned..there is no irony to that title..she is vengeful, selfish, unapologetic, manipulative and a bit of a seductress as well. So like the title says she reverses time by using the hourglass which appeared before her in her moment of death being used by her step sis..She on the execution hall regretted her actions of malice towards her step sis but turned out she has been dancing on top of her palm for the longest time so in this life she vows to destroy her and everything she cares for..her mom who died under mysterious cause in her lastlife seems to be the doing of Mielle(step-sis)as well, she was a commoner born to a prostitute mother so she is looked down upon by society..she is incredibly beautiful and gorgeous as well taking after her mother so many men vied for her affection..but as later revealed to us by her, she says they only liked her for her looks and did not want anything serious..She has golden hair shining brightly and radiantly in contrast to Mielle's platinum and straight hair, so while MC was in the face kind of beauty, Mielle was more of a subdued beauty it seems like...also ml is not as smart as other ml's in this kind of manhwa but I love that although some comments call him an idiot..I think he is quite smart..also there seems to be some kind of a connection between her and ml in her lastlife as well as now..Oscar the fiancee of Mielle was a target for MC so she tried to steal him by acting pitiful and fragile..I mean it worked and the way they treat her in their household is a testament to it...he falls in love with her but is powerless against his sister who is ml's fiancee and a powerful person who thinks Mielle is an useful tool to accomplish their needs..she also thinks mc has dirty blood..I feel for Oscar truly..mc knows the future so she is able to know the trends of the market and help out with her step-father's business which she later finds out that she was never credited for, she grows angry and doesn't want to provide any more input..also the fact that he keeps trying to match her up with what they presumed to be a merchant who frequents their house angers her..he does it so openly as well so her mom is also not pleased with it...MC is also quite emotional and imperfect which I love..but the fact that she uses the hourglass so recklessly irks me so much even tho she seems to understand it's consequences..that's it for my review

I Became the Male Lead’s Adopted Daughter

Very typical father-daughter relationship in manhwa..also hate that the writer said she was from our world in her previous life but never brings it up again...hello Missy u have access to technology, riches and knowledge that could change everything..hate that...the plot is so cliche and I read some of the chapters on Wattpad already so..

Reminiscence Adonis

Ongoing | Duō Yù,n Wé,nhu,Duo Yun Wenhu | 2000 released

I loved this when I read this with my sis..we were so immersed in it but I felt my interest drop when the art style changed..everything looks so smoothed out and the details weren't as clear..it began to look like the typical manhwa..the art at first made mc look tough with the attention to detail..the way her fringes were drawn and everything gave a rough image to her..so much character was lost when it changed..forever sulky cuz of that

This Girl is a Little Wild

Ongoing | kidari studio,coyo | 2000 released

Hate that this was dropped..we were robbed fr..I think only upto ch50 is translated..I loved everything about this..MC's arrogance and attitude as well as ML's cute and dense personality but above all their dynamic and chemistry was unmatched..they were like 'dumb and dumber'..RIP
