Sad that the ending is lacking. I quite like the whole thing. Good amounts of drama and action. Didn't get to explore much of the characters though which is a shame. Rating it 4 just coz I find the overall thing a good read. No dragging. Just really wish they fleshed out the other characters too. About: MC is a refugee who joined Delivery knights in order to get a clue on where her sister was taken. Armed with a mutation she pursues any clues while unraveling a deeper sinister plot about her sister's kidnapping Issue: Rushed ending. Characters not as fleshed out. Corrupt men on top. Social divide

Hmm rather boring. I'm not into the female antagonist but she has a lot of scenes and is actually more interesting compared to the actual MC. There's a lot of detail in the story which is nice. A lot of dialogue to feed it to you. The overall plot progression is a bit dull tho. I don't feel any attachment to the characters. Maybe if they kept MC's psychopathy instead of this lengthened cursed version that gives him humanity it'll be more interesting. Giving a 3 just coz I'm more into the world itself. About: MC got caught up in the Mystic Realms and lost his father but with a new understanding of another realm he steps unto another world of power where he continues on his father's research while he himself becomes stronger Issue: Dull characters. Heavy on text. Corrupted realms of power

U Kill I Cook

Ongoing | Jiu jiji | 2019 released

The grin on my face reading 103. Ehem. Anyhow I wasn't into it at first as this has more comedic vibe to it but I gradually grew to like the ML more especially coz he's stoic and also like an innocent puppy. The FL also grew on me. She's hard headed and smart and not weak at all. Plot is just ok. It's more focused on the mystery on the assassin side than the cooking aspects. There's also no unnecessarily dragged out misunderstandings. They communicate well. About: FL was 'kidnapped' by ML after slaughtering the people she was under and eating her cooked noodles. He took her to be his personal chef. Eventually both developed feelings for each other. Meanwhile they must also solve the mystery of those who are out to get them. Issue: Evil emperor. Hidden identity. Survival

Dang. It's both intense and not at the same time. The MC is brutal but also caring. He's not full on pursuing revenge but more like a vagabond seeking where it would lead him which I guess eventually is about revenge but I liked how MC took time to get there. Plot is also nice seems to have good amounts of mystery. The other characters tho I'm not quite attached to any of them they are likeable. I like Seo the most. MC is smart and subdued and thinks before he acts. About: MC's family were betrayed. He spent 10 years branded as the son of a traitor so in order to survive, with sheer will and tenacity he pushed on learning martial arts. After rescuing someone close to him it's become clear that the path he needed to take in order to survive is take on all those who had brought the downfall of his family Issue: Survival. Revenge. Betrayal

Feel like there's something lacking and off. First some chapters were a bit blegh further on as the plot opens up it becomes better. It at least has a different addition to the dozens of similar plots. I do like the multi dimension merging happening. I do not like that all the team mates are female :/ Good for a light read I guess. World build isn't deep so it's very quick to just take the info. About: MC is just your average salary man who one day awakened his powers related to his past favorite game. With his new powers he sets out to become rich and powerful. In this path he encounters a deeper connection to his powers and the dimension cracks happening in his world Issue: Shallow. Harem. 'If I can't have you noone can' villains

I Log In Alone

Ongoing | 인타임,Rose studio | 2019 released

I feel like it's similar to The Blade in terms of plot progression... it's basically just a wham bam fest and powering.. not much on character dev or indepth world building but there's a lot more explanation here at least. Story plot is sprinkled here and there. Tagging in harem because there's a no. Already in love with MC though he doesn't acknowledge or reciprocate. Overall a bit of a shallow read but it's not bad. I do find the wham banging fun. His supporters don't do much other than being side explorers and explanations. After awhile it does get boring since it's just a rinse repeat. About: MC was born with super strength and one day uses it to save a 'player' in doing so becomes a player himself only 'underground' and gaining a tail and not wings. From there he decides to do what will and use his awakening to become more powerful Issue: Bland. Dungeon survival.

Martial Peak

Edit: oh man quality is dropping. Maybe at like 1600 up or so didn't really take note but at his 3rd jump... it was ok at first but then it all starts getting stiff. Esp at 1700 up. Surprisingly good! The world build is extremely descriptive... there's a lot of text to read. Some scenes do jump but only occasionally. With so many arcs there's a lot of repetitive patterns of scenarios just that the power level is different so it can get tiring to binge it. I like the MC as he is savage and really protective of his own people. The girls are quite a let down tho. I'm not mad at his harem it's not annoying or clingy at least but they're still meh. About: Adventure of MC to unlock the highest form of Martial cultivation...along the way he meets his harem and as the MC gets all the good stuff. Issue: Repetitive. Power play. Survival

It feels lacking. I wanted to see more blood or a satisfying revenge but they made MC be malevolent and merciful. Where's the savagery? ;_; I do like how MC isn't just one track mind and stuff but eye for an eye man. Quick death isn't worth it. The other scenes without MC is also boring. I'm not attached to any side to feel for them. About: MC grew up learning martial arts from his grandpa and now he journeys down the mountain to look for his arranged bride but finds himself in the middle of a war Issue: Unsatisfying. War

The Crazy Adventures of Mystical Doctor

Ongoing | | 2000 released

Hmmm I do like the adventure. The MC is also smart though reckless but somehow I feel it lacking. I'm not quite attached to anybody. The world build is ok not really descriptive focuses more on the plot adventure mystery tho after 150 it hasn't even touched the main plot line. It's an okay read feels like Martial Peak with how it progresses. I do like how the group grows strong and MC gets more vindictive. About: MC died and reincarnated due to events she awakens and cultivates faster than others but she must also hide her identity else those after her former life will once again haunt her Issue: Cultivation. Typical revenge of villains because pride is hurt.

Dungeon Seeker

Complete | Sakamoto 666,Mizukiyoshi Juro | 2000 released

Oh man wasted potential for more chapters. Love how MC is just going for revenge but it's all so fast so it's not satisfying at all. The ending especially is lacking. I do like how Gocchan and his fam did good in the end but the rest just needs more omph!! Sad About: MC got isekaid but with shit stats.. he is eventually betrayed and got stuck in a high level dungeon but it actually helped him gain something great. Now what he aims for is revenge Issue: Rushed ending. Fast pacing. Revenge
