Her Summon

Ongoing | park jinjoon | 2000 released

I forgot to rate it because I didn't read it on this site... I'm so disappointed in myself. Basically this is the best thing since sliced bread and you should read it. EDIT: Wanted to add that the ending was lovely but a side story chapter would be nice. I like seeing a bit of what happens after everything is done and dusted, even if it's obvious what that's gonna look like. To clarify, we do get to see what happens ultimately with Yutuba's irl life and whatnot, but they drop a lil something in the last couple panels and then don't go any further with it.

I Am The Sorcerer King Webtoon

Ongoing | Decaspell,Miro | 2000 released

Pretty interesting. Some parts can feel slow but there's still enough action to keep you invested and the MC's "power ups" can get hype. EDIT: Later parts really didn't feel all that interesting for me, MC largely lost his ambition and the side characters who I found boring (particularly pink hair girl) took up too much screen time.

Bug player

Ongoing | 청초 | 2019 released

Decent kingdom raising series, and when the comedy hits it's amazing. Doesn't do much else to stand out from the crowd. At some point it becomes more about the action than the politics, and bugs, even though they're in the name, kinda disappear after the first 3 times they're mentioned.

Mashle: Magic and Muscles

If saitama had to take over as mc in mob psycho 100. Lots of diverted expectations and self aware humour. EDIT: Kinda lazy, don't think I'll read it anymore now that the novelty has worn off.

Otherworldly Sword King's Survival Records

Ongoing | Kwon sun kyu,Studio khit | 2019 released

The comedy is the high point, characters are great, and the plot is engaging. What more could you want? EDIT: Imo they went to hard on the seriousness. Season 2 isn't the same as 1. EDIT 2: I don't know if I dropped this when I made edit 1 but I haven't read it since.

The Great Mage Returns After 4000 Years

Ongoing | barnacle,kim deok-yong , redice studio | 2019 released

I really wanted to like this but the bitch is just so annoying...

The Duchess with an Empty Soul

Ongoing | Han jin-seo,Jin se-ha | 2019 released

To be honest, the scanlator drama and reveal of her fiance being gay were just as good as the actual plot. I like the protagonist not being useless. There isn't really enough relationship development for me to say much about the romance. In this case you either like the story or you give up, because there's nothing else that could carry the series. EDIT: most of this is moot by now, they're dating now and it's pretty cute. They've gone down the same path as most other stories and started bringing up prejudice against women. Call me sexist but I've seen this same thing play out so many times I just want to move on. I'm not here for a moral lesson on how bad x group had it in y time.

Revenge Wedding

Ongoing | Saryong | 2019 released

Can't wait to see where they take this set up.

The Evil Lady Will Change

Complete | 极漫文化,少年漫画 | 2019 released

Unexpectedly good for a Chinese webtoon. It does start to lose steam after a bit though. The romance is finally beginning so I'm looking forward to that.

Sica Wolf Webtoon

Complete | Siya,Coin | 2000 released

Boy oh boy did I enjoy this one. Every time I thought there was a plothole, it got adressed later and in hindsight made perfect sense. Karsus appearing shirtless every 10 chapters or so was very welcome. They got together within a reasonable timeframe. The art is lovely. Not to say that I didn't have any problems with the series but overall it was a very positive experience and by the end I found myself grinning from ear to ear. EDIT: I didn't mention it before I believe to avoid spoilers but this is something that should be brought up so I'll be vague about it. Basically, somewhere really late in the series (like ch70??) Karsus randomly pulls a 180 and acts super concerning and then Sica's like "Jokes on you I'm in to that shit" and after that they go back to normal as if nothing happened. I had a real wtf bro moment when I first saw it and I'll never forget how it felt to have the wholesome fluffy atmosphere around them destroyed in an instant.
