A one star on a bad day fr..like it's so on the nose type of webtoon so I didn't enjoy it. I felt that everything was so predictable and the child MC was not cute to me at all..I find most child character in manhwas to be spoiled and annoying honestly, I just wanna whack them in the head or beat them up with my chappal. The fact that she is their bio daughter that they lost is so bloody obvious to me..the author is basically spoon-feeding us with this bit of info and anyone who don't catch it is a fool and anyone thinking they are smart for figuring it out is so damn slow and not right in the head obviously. She lived up to an adult in her lastlife so that isn't an excuse for her childlike behaviour, her getting her hand dirty with chocolate and all, girl u gonna get diabetes for sure. Another thing I hate about this trope is a child in an unfortunate situation is adopted by rich ass motherfuckers who spoil them rotten and they start acting like those rich ass spoiled kids, like why? U know better than to sulk or cry when u don't have your fav desserts or sweets.. that's already privileged as heck. Them becoming crybabies also makes me wanna bully them or some shit...aghh

I read this before..I know that..it wasn't the best cuz if it was it would stick to me but it don't so

Olgami

Ongoing | 해무리 | 2019 released

I saw an edit of this manhwa on my YouTube shorts n it was pretty dang hot so I checked it out..am currently in ch108..it's good but I never expected it to be a vampire×supernatural themed..The way the ml can't take his hands off our mc is just eye candy and fulfills my every desire..the lust is strong..the whole page or section when ml and mc r together, the pheromones just fills up choking me in the process..the fact that the story isn't well executed and feels like some chapters are missing and it is getting kind of repetitive is not on my mind atm..what is on my mind is the mc and ml..wow..a combo that is surprisingly addictive..I thought for sure the mc would fall for him by now..but she is actually pretty normal and reacts so well..the fact that she can't trust the mc after all 100+ ch shocks me cuz usually the mc would be head over heels in love with ml by now..but that is pretty normal all in all tho some selfish n whiny part of me wishes for more loving moments or sexual chemistry among our leads other than the angst..the MC's mole under her lips..makes her look so fucking segggsy..the ml being infatuated with her is something that I am here for!!..Seriously the story is non-existent at this point but I just can't get enough!!!One tiny thing I have to add..Rose that fucking bitch pisses me off..it is always those fucking bitches who acts all good and kind yet cannot make the final decisions..the fact that she stands by her father's side and threatens to kill Geurim if ml kills him..that moment..not to encourage violence or anything but I wanted to rip her face off..her n Leo dynamic tho..why my tan hotties gotta choose those mothafucking bitches like her??!! The art isn't the best but it works..all in all kinda good I should say..I think with rose and her father, the author is trying to accomplish a kind of Mikaelson dynamic..it seems like Rose is the only thing the father cares for so there's that.. Also I almost forgot our MC is an ex-convict sentenced to 7 years in prison for attempted murder which we later found out was her ex-bf who is a straight up psychopath and a creep..love the fact that he dared her to stab him and she did..also he died in ml's hand..he was tricked into it by our mc..also he found out that the blood he loves so much is our MC's and not the ex so..her family tho..her sister is a straight up stupid and privileged bitch..when the flashback happened I was kinda on the fence about our mc with her being the little sis and her elder sis being selfless and mature..but turns out I was wrong..if we r talking about preferential treatment..well we have that right here - ladies n gentlemen..their parents died in their childhood so they were under the care of their paternal grandparents..the elder sis is preferred cuz she resembles their son and our mc resembles the "wench who killed our son" their words not mine..they also give pocket money, go on amusement parks with the elder sis and give her snacks and shower her with compliments while the little sis is left out..that scene where she wants the bigger lollipop then the sister reluctantly agrees (cuz mc wasn't offered any!!btw) but when they were caught by their grandma..she didn't utter a single word..her living in luxury while her younger sister is scraping by..she wasn't even aware of her sister not getting allowance..also with her being an ex-convict, she is ashamed of her but gives her the wedding invitation for her wedding but is surprised when she shows up..and when she is asked on who she is, she fucking replies with "I don't know"..bitch u know!!the ml's remark about how two sisters lives a completely different life and have different attitudes..I wholeheartedly agree with..that's it for my rant

Princess Shuden

Ongoing | Flowing with honey,Nono , 노노,콘티,Hash , 해시 | 2019 released

The synopsis is typical..but the art seems to nice at the very least, the comments are polarizing from people praising it to heaven and back and others finding it plain boring. I wonder which side of the spectrum I would fall into:)

I Became the Ugly Lady

Ongoing | 정하임,강세아 | 2020 released

This mahwa is so tone deaf in its issues ranging from fatphobia to uglyphobia? I have no idea but the mc already seems to be a result of the society we live in unfortunately. The body she possesses is fat and obese with pimples. She is also a shut in character so she tries to improve upon it by exercising, eating only vegetables, dieting etc. It sets a bad example from the first chapter alone. I hate how easy it is for her to lose weight and that pimples can be easily gone poof just like that? As someone who has been suffering and still is from the two problems, it isn't easy. Exercising works but it is so hard to maintain it and looking at your reflection in the mirror and being disgusted by your body and face with scars, acnes and pimples. It just sells it short. It presents the people suffering form this issues as lazybums who don't put in any effort and just mindlessly complain about it, not trying to improve their health or body and whatnot. I have been trying really hard and I have some results but it doesn't last or the effects take place slowly. It just made me feel bitter and sour for being misrepresented.

It's My Destiny To Be The Hero's Saviour

Ongoing | 도담 | 2019 released

How do I start? The satisfaction level I had while reading this was 2/10 and that is me being generous. It feels like the writer got inspired by other manhwas of this genre and decided to implement the most common tropes found in this genre..like the child abuse, neglect from family, mother dying, and her remembering her past life memory. It is also kind of stupid how the lines uttered by the characters in this manhwa reminds me some other mahwa and the mentioning of contracts and what not. "You can be a child", that should be heartwarming but it just felt some out of place. It feels like the writer ran out of time to make the situations the characters are in to make it make sense or the lines they say are just for decoration. I don't feel like the characters motivations are clearly justified and it feels like the whole 'my family loves me' trope all over again.

I Don't Want to Become Crown Princess!!

Ongoing | Tsukigami saki,Kuroki natsu | 2019 released

I won't call it smut as it's not steamy enough to be called that but I won't rate it PG13 as well so there's that..the whole plot or lack thereof is so amusing to me..it's like the plot of a porn..it's the most unnecessary thing..the whole libido thing was comical..the princess is a whole stupidass person..the crown prince being the typical ml who doesn't know the word 'consent'.. what more is there? Oh..the second male lead, yeah he is pitiful, a childhood friend it seems falling into that cliche again. The prince tried to force her in marriage by imprinting on her which can only be possible by casting a spell while breaking the hymen, so OUCH!! He cummed inside her..he filled her with his seeds..ugh trying to make her preggy isn't a good look on you..the whole love at first sight bullshit..tsk tsk.. anyways the MC used contraception by visiting a witch for it..which is a thing to be shocked by apparently cuz that witch is really hard to come across and the prince has been searching for the old hag as well concerning his libido.. But I come back to this every once in a while..haha I don't even know why!! A guilty read?? That's possible!!

Dragon Raising Manual

Ongoing | Pimo | 2019 released

Hmm..it's quite mild I feel, it doesn't pop off and catch your attention. It just is. The thing I can't quite grasp is why she decided to just skip the background info and seemingly forgot all about it, is it just for plot convenience? It probably is, isn't it? The ml is a tan hottie..I gave it a chance cuz of him, so how is he a dragon? He has pointy ears which makes me think he is well...an elf but a dragon? Is he a half-breed or is it a disguise? I also have an inkling that his sister is not blind. The MC overall tho I have only read upto ch5 has been nothing but a disappointment. Seriously the art doesn't make it any better, it looks like she has a lazy eye. The incest part is pretty realistic and I like it when historical stories of any kind implement that cuz it's a fact. Also it's a guilty tag of mine tho I don't have that type of attachment with my own siblings. I love seeing it in stories. It is scandalous and I love every moment of it.. if they are pretty

I Tried to Persuade My Brother and He Entrusted the Male Lead to Me

The Duchess Who Sees Ghosts

Ongoing | Garamdal,Min3,Honeyrain | 2019 released
2023-03-04 11:34 marked

Like the title says, it is a manhwa about the MC who can see a ghost, she is a sort of exorcist/shaman even in her past life and has been revived into this life by the god she serves Mago. She is like a vessel for the god so she is a precious human for the god. The ml is like not interesting at all, the MC too..I have been introduced to a limited number of characters yet none of them stick out. The painter is an interesting fella but he seems to take a liking to our MC already so sayonara. The MC's personality who priorities money over all things, man I have seen it done so many times before but atleast the other characters who had that characteristic had like a decent backstory to it, this Webtoon does provide a reason for her obsession with it but I feel it isn't enough since she even puts aside her morals for that. I also don't appreciate how the story is so on the nose about certain things or maybe all things. Like the ML muttering the most sus things but we can see what he is saying in those little bubbles yet the characters are unaware of it. There seems to be a bit of a mystery of how the ML met MC but I am not intrigued at all. Also I think I am even more disappointed cuz there is another manhwa with the same premise with incredible artwork, metaphors, good characters who are properly fleshed out, a bit of a history sprinkled in there, the emotions being on full display and the MC in that manhwa can also see ghost even in her last life to now so...btw I am taking about '*Secret Lady*'..mwah chef's kiss The noses of the characters go missing in some panels and everything seems so cluttered. The action scenes. I have no idea what's showing on with all the wind effects and the *wham bam swish* thingy..but it's so stupid. I gave it a chance, I read it till ch25 tho I could already tell by the first chapter that it wasn't anything special.
