Radio Storm

Complete | Lee Seon-ui | 2019 released

10!! Intricate and absolutely beautifully written. Peak storytelling really. A true masterpiece. The most underrated manhwa out there AAAAA. "They are able reveal information but still manages to keep the air of mystery and suspense. At the same time, they've introduced us to the world, the backstory, the characters and also developed the relationship of the characters." The twist in the mc’s character was masterfully done. I truly felt deceived as a reader (which is rare). I thought he was the typical ehite lotus, and was almost frustrated at his gullible-ness… and then it turns out he was a black lotus after all. I genuinely didn't see it coming AT ALL. It gave me physical chills that lasted sooo long. Damn. Color me impressed. I loved it so much. I'm a sucker for an unreliable narrator. "This series is very well thought out. If you're a thinker who likes to be challenged when reading, you'd like this. Not only bec the plot itself is full of mysteries and questions, but also because it is presented in a logical manner (that's why I give pass for the occassional use of expositions). The characters are logical; you can see it in how they react to things, how they question things and how they explain things. They are sharp and insightful. And I like that bec I like smart characters and hate stupid characters."-- I agree so hard with this reader The bittersweet ending was so good. THE FEELS. It felt like the perfect ending to this story. Even though the number 1 aspect this manhwa excels at is in its storytelling, the emotional nuance and depth is also skilfully explored. "For something that isn't too long and is already jampacked with too much information, the characters all managed to be intriguing characters. Both the main characters are deep, rounded and 3D. Whole the supporting characters all have their own quirks and personality that makes them distinct." The emotional anecdotes were so poignant and on-theme. And the black and white almost deterred me from continuing reading since usuallly I read strictly colored manhwas. But I actually think it suited this manhwa perfectly. It conveyed the emotions so rawly that some panels wouldn't even need words to convey the emotion of the scene. Some small aspects could have been even better/explored deeper but given the storytelling structure, pace and overall delivery was SO GOD TIER, I can easily overlook it. All and all, it was one of my absolute fav manhwas!! I also loved the comparison this (very thoughtful) bato rando drew to Fate Makes No Mistakes: "Compare this to Fate Makes No Mistakes (which although S3 is becoming a masterpiece in storytelling), the early chapters were so lacking in information it ended up more confusing than anything. and then they dropped the reveal all at once hahaha". Radio Storm managed to do what FMNM felt short to deliver.

Rainbow City

9 Love it. Can’t wait for more chaps. The art is so cool, and the plot is quite intriguing. Also I love how it’s slowburn. And it’s hilarious and deceptive!!! Gorgeous art too

The Villainess is a Marionette

Ongoing | Han Yi Rim,Mangle | 2021 released

8 Very beautiful art, and compelling plot… but sometimes it felt kinda flat? And I’m kinda getting the ick from the ml. I wish white haired guy or magician became the ml instead idk. Also I was getting peeved at the ‘saving the damsel in distress’ trope. I loved how cunning she is, but I was missing a bit more strength and independence in other aspects. That said.. the dynamics of her and the brother (that isn’t actually her brother) was really intoxicating and very well explored. Funny enough, they had way more chemistry than her and the ml. And honestly I’m more interested in them two than the ml. The beginning was amazing truly but then it became very cliche imo. Still it was still very well done emotionally wise

The Way to Protect the Female Lead's Older Brother

Ongoing | Kin,Baek Ji Young | 2021 released

9 Quite good. Art was stunning. Family Adam vibes but better. Truly depraved but in the best way. Wish there was a little sprinkle of smut. That would make it an all rounder gem. The novel is R19, we’ve BEEN ROBBED!!!! Petition to make it Josei. The fl is also one of my FAVESSSS. She’s the standard eheh

The Uninvited Guest On My Shoulder

Complete | TEKTEK | 2019 released

7.5 Cute lil read!! The plot was nothing too innovative but it was still pretty entertaining! Also it was told from the seme’s POV which is refreshing

Flower of the Sun

Ongoing | Harvey | 2000 released

8.5 I actually got super invested in this one!! It pulled on my heart strings. The art is gorgeous, and I love the connection between the Mc and the seme (and ofc the crown prince is utter trash). And honestly seeing a big bulky uke was hot af. I love how unconventional it is since he is taller and bigger than the seme(s). Also him allowing himself to be degraded to such extent just to protect those dear to him..

Fruit of the Tongue

7 Interesting strong quick read.

Please Eat It, Spirit-nim!

Ongoing | Ban , 반 | 2022 released

7.5 Really pretty art, entertaining reading though a bit repetitive to other manhwas and nonsensical at times

100% Love Gauge/Love Gauge 100%

7 Quick cute read. Very nice art. I did wish we had gotten a gl side story with his besties though

Dark Fall

Ongoing | Darulung | 2000 released

7 Obviously very problematic and rapey. But the actual plot has so much potential, I’m actually interested in knowing more. The art is also absolutely gorgeous. Def great shock value but still kinda hot at times P.S. who am I kidding. This is quite enjoyable if I turn off my brain just based on the art alone eheh (Wait for s2 end to reread)
