axima's manga / #Beautiful Art(480)

Technically a revenge story but the person he's getting revenge on probably won't show up till like the last arc, it's more political drama and power ups. I'm not one for murim/martial arts stories but this one was pretty interesting thanks to the inner workings of the sect and MC being as proactive as he is about doing whatever he thinks is right. The parts where he throws snarky quips are my favourite, absolutely screenshot worthy.

The series really likes to speedrun it's own story, at times it can be funny to deconstruct what you think will be a while arc. It does become an issue when it's a pattern they stick to in favour of elaborating on some interesting possibilities that get set up. Also I'm not a fan of the greedy, violent sister. Hopefully she'll stop getting focus soon?

A doctor that can fight sounds interesting. The pacing is a little weird though.

MC is hot. It feels like it should be mid but there's something gleaming below the surface and just enough variety to keep things fresh.

Great story but read the chapters somewhere else, they're all out of order.

Solid. MC is pretty smart and there's some originality to the setting even if any one part isn't unique on it's own.

Less edgy than it's manga counterpart. I would say I like this version a little more but it's up to preference really, they both have good and bad. They restructure the story to make more sense here while cutting out some detail so there's reason to read both. How faithful it stays in future chapters will have a huge impact, there should be a significant turn soon. Not really sure if MC could be qualified as OP because he's borderline useless during the day, at least if the webtoon follows manga powerscaling.

FL is a little naive but who I think is the ML is really cute and the dad is nice as well though he doesn't appear much. Everybody really has it out for FL these early chapters, with Diana introduced I expect a lot of the scheming to be coming from her going forward. The heart thing is weird though.

Really good but if you want to retain your will to live skip the first few chapters... The magic system seems interesting with what we know so far. I've been liking the other characters too.

They don't play around with the men they're all so hot. And the ML is a priest I'm on my knees. EDIT: Dropped. It's good but too brutal. Kersten is treated like an awful villain but he was just trying to save his love. I don't know how things got so messed up. He doesn't deserve this. Nau is sad too he knows his feelings won't be reciprocated as he spends his whole life serving her.
