Boundless Necromancer

Ongoing | | 2019 released

Has potential and art is really good. He gets strong pretty fast, so it doesn't suffer from "boring until halfway through the story" syndrome. The system tries to be unique but it's just meh. No side characters to speak of yet. I'm curious to see if he's in the tower for most of the story or if he's actually getting out kinda quick.

Legendary Ranker’s Comeback

Ongoing | | 2022 released

I think sorta mediocre? The restrictions on mc are kinda bs and others don't have to follow them. There's some rando mary sue shoved in every once in a while. The other stuff was fine.

Past Life Returner

Ongoing | Suzuki Misaki,Rei Gotoh,JANG,Na Min Chae | 2022 released

It's kinda mad when you think about it but great series. There's a few types of conflict mixed in for some variety. First 20 chapters is basically just stonks but actually interesting with some other prep to break things up, then we switch between politics, dungeon raiding, and assassination. Yes they all somehow make sense. This guy is basically planning to solo the entire dungeon break phenomenon and nipping various other issues in the bud. Love the side characters too. No romance but there is a girl with a lot of screentime in the later chapters, she's ok. MC is underage this entire time but he doesn't look it at all so I keep forgetting until someone mentions it, but because of how mature he acts even characters in the series tend to forget.

The End of the World is Just a Game to Me

Ongoing | Choi Woo-jin,HOOPA | 2022 released

I thought this was gonna suck but it's very fun. MC catches on quick and really makes the most of it. The story isn't too predictable, there's a good combo of op action, op smarts and showboating, plus the chat isn't as annoying as you'd think. It adds to the humour with mc being insane enough to keep up the streamer act while on a killing spree. He's not actually super op though he's just smart enough to problem solve.

Leveling Up With Skills

Ongoing | | 2022 released

If there's one thing I can appreciate it's that the way the plot is set up, nothing can be stolen from him. A lot of these have other people get some good stuff too but I'm a greedy ho and want it all. Unfortunately he helps other people get stronger because he doesn't care about power and just wants to beat the apocalypse. Very few "oh shit he's so cool" moments because there are no other people around to witness anything ever. The power up system and overall story are fine.

The 100th Regression of the Max-Level Player

Ongoing | 킹소다, Gold Hand | 2023 released

God this is so good. Please give me more. MC is OP in both worlds and has a cute brother, he's smart and knows how to use his knowledge from previous regressions well. So far the other characters that he'll probably have join him haven't been much good but the villains are fairly interesting.

Regressing With the King's Power

Ongoing | Ahn So-seol, Seong Hyun, Redice Studio | 2023 released

I don't like the downsides to his powers, idk why the cousin is even in this story, and I'm desperately hoping the girl will gtfo instead of starting some romance harem bs. The rest is very good though so I'm interested in seeing how it'll turn out. EDIT: girl is the biggest bitchy cunt I've ever seen. How dare he protect himself with abilities he didn't even understand yet and against bullies that were trying to kill him. Of course it's his responsibility to make sure tormentors don't happen to get hurt while she does fuck all to help the victim. And of course the forced fucking kiss in the middle of the fight, I saw it coming from a mile away. "I can't beat her so I'll knock her out with a poisoned kiss/surprise her with a kiss so she lets her guard down" no who asked for that.

The Cook Of A Perished World

Ongoing | Mild Coffee | 2022 released

Them being soldiers instead of randos is interesting. The cooking thing is pretty cool, although I'd like to see a bit more of his other skills and the monster cooking from the prologue. EDIT: Not exactly action heavy but very fun nonetheless. It's more of a people drama.

Everyone Regressed Except Me

Ongoing | Writing | 2022 released

I was gonna give this a 5 but the loli ruined it. It's kinda dumb that everybody has it out for MC like he's the only player who was strong before regression but what about the other 20 that entered the final dungeon too?? Like why is it fine for all of them to get even stronger than before by stealing MC's shit if it's equality you're after? And anyway 1000s of weaker players getting random op stuff that used to be mcs is still a downgrade to having one really strong person that knows how to take full advantage of it. The way other characters keep literally being given cheats just so they can catch up to MC is irritating af idk who thought this would be fun, and I mean literal cheats like the monsters themselves are helping the loli BC apparently it's fine for anyone other than MC to be OP. As for why I hate her, she gets everything handed to her, and her personality sucks. I know shes older because regression but wtf is this weird crush situation? Not to mention her thinking she's the shit when really she might as well be useless, even though MC flip flops between pointing out that she's weak and acting like her abilities really do something. Last chap her only job was to stay outside the gate but of course noooo she knows better so she went in after MC. I'm sure she'll ride his coattails here too and think she's so amazing and helpful. Her showing up decreased the difficulty of the gate because again literal cheats but this is just straight up worse because now MC can't level up by killing the high level monsters, he has to sit on his ass with a couple goblins for 3 hours instead.

I’m the strongest boss

Ongoing | | 2022 released

I find it gets better the longer it goes on. Current conflict is very interesting but I think it's nearing the end so I'll have to see about what's next. Even though it's Chinese it dodges a lot of the typical pitfalls, artstyle mimics Korean manhwa very well. Reincarnation rag is pretty popular here but it only applies to a character that gets taken out of the picture in like chapter 2. There's also someone that's isekai'd who's around for longer but he might be on his deathbed.
