pluckaduck's manga / #Fantasy(317)

v20 ch20. damn im immensely curios about asha, like i know she's gonna oppose the mc one day, but even tho she's not the nicest and definitely wants to use mc for her own goals, i just like her a lot. sagara is def the most dislikable secondary chara in this series. ig its because her reason to destroy the cities wasn't as relatable as ghandava or maruna's reasons... but i do feel bad for her. the gods and suras are selfish, but not evil perse edit: asha u bitch. all my love for turned into hatred. even after knowing u were killing people, children included, with kubera's name, i thought "there was a reason behind it; she does it for revenge." but then u killed that magician, and then tried to kill ur best friend and teacher and said all those terrible things to leez that i just find you irredeemable. yes, i acknowledged that u wavered at the thought of killing leez, but ur atrocious crimes far exceed anyone's capacity for pity.

usually when there's ecchi added to an action manhwa, it annoying. but this is amazing, cuz the author actually wrote great female characters and parodies some tropes commonly seen in manga/manwa so it's just really hialrious

ch 32. hmm it's ok. mc, originally just using the clones to make money while he relax and reap the benefits, after being so helpless in that dungeon break resolves to dramatically get stronger with more effort now. which is great. the clones are cute tho.

actually pretty good. the scenes and fights are drawn fluidly, the progression is reasonable, the characters arent cookie-cutter types, mc's father was a hella strong hunter from which mc inherited his talent (not to mention, hella hot), it's slightly different from the copy n paste dungeon manhwas (the worldbuilding is more interesting and fleshed out and seemed to be more focus on a variety of charas, rather than making everything about the mc).

she's so precious and adorable! she lacks common sense since she's been alone without developing her social skills for a long time, so her mindset originally was very narrow. she gained friends who cared for her and vice versa, but it doesn't mean whatever she does according to her thinking is brushed off like that. even if it's with good intentions, she still ignorant to tacit social conduct and thinks without the big picture due to life-long influence of blindly serving her master. she's learning to be flexible, but retain her upright and dense as bricks personality lol. also, she's really innocent bc of lack of social interaction. she used to only care about serving her master to be good knight. she neither cared nor thought about getting married or romantic gestures so it's natural she doesn't pick up or think too deeply about the subtle (or not subtle) romantic interest in her.

good plot progression and storytelling, solid power system, fleshed out and complex characters. author def did his/her research. mc can be said to be the most ordinary-looking chara out of all charas, but she has a pretty unique skill, however, while it's not op, she uses her brains to complement the skill's benefit to play the situation to her favor. she's very interesting too- she's not just a simple person who strives for peace and justice. she rejects her family's criminal ways, bc of her past, and follows the rules like an ordinary good person, and works hard for her goal, but the great and ironic thing is, she will go to ruthless lengths to achieve it, making her not so different from her family after all, but still not breaking the rules lol. the worldbuilding is great, the power system "essence" is easy to understand but there are a variety of ways you can utilize it. the charas have a story to tell, and have their motivations, instead of being used as a stupid and cheap foil to mc. srsly, the quality is highhh (and the creator's in college? honestly impressive). btw, did i mention her sister is hot?

ch 5. what the fuck is that father cheating with maid plot point supposed to add to the story?? just unecessary drama to give the father two wives? I'm so annoyed, the self-proclaimed "god of words" mc just made up a story about how his father blackmailed the maid into having sex, and how is that not worse than them two having sex consensually? any normal person would've thrown the father out at that point (and btw it's not a matter of "jealousy", mc, they fucking betrayed her trust and deserve to be ousted. stop being so fcking selfish bc you want a happy family, mc.). edit: ch 5.5: yeah...is this supposed to offer some perspective to make this heartwarming? cuz its not... im kinda disgusted with the maid too... ch. side story: girl... (boys, dont follow this father's example, don't gaslight and use ur kids to corner a woman, it's disgusting) ch 25. first off, it's honestly better than i expected. just get rid of the lecherous parts then mc is pretty great. i enjoy exploring the world with mc and his party, and he is decently smart. we are starting to get character growth too. i felt that he was kinda naive, and idealistic...but that is reasonable bc he used to be NEET and grew up pretty sheltered in his new life. but now experiencing his failure that resulted in death and actual consequences, with the supard's words, he is forced to realize he cant just deflect some blame/guilt with excuses. the ramifications weigh down heavily on him, and i love it. and when the supard helped him out at the expense of his own goal, bc of mc's naivety, that was cherry on top. ch 36. ngl this chapter added layers of complexity to this isekai manga. paul is a good person and tries to be a good dad, but he's also humane and complex. and mc, he's relatable and realistic, but his flaws aren't glossed over, he takes the step forward to change which he couldnt do in his previous life. ch 52. they were 15 ish yo!! i just wish they were a bit older before doing the deed. well, whatever... the fact she cut off her hair was pretty cool, tho, shows her resolve and chara growth ch 76. ngl that was genuinely sweet. syth(?) is sooo cute and precious, esp that ear flapping when she is embarrassed. what's better than an adorable chara with personality + utter devotion + chara growth? like, what the hell, i want her. rudeus is gonna have a harem, so give her to me! ch 86. wholesome and heartwarming. mc's past life still lingers, it's great cuz it means he cant turn away from someone going thru the same thing. so mc just have 3 harem members. they're all great tbh, i dislike harems, but they're all endearing... i wish they all would end up with rudeus. sighhhh...
